Are We Heading For Immortality?
From the moment of birth, we begin the battle against death -- against the inevitable. Statistics say that a newborn child
can expect to live an average of 76 years. But averages may not be what they use to be.
 In 1786, life expectancy was 24 years.
A hundred years later it doubled to 48. Right now, it's 76.
"Over half the baby boomers here in America are going to see their hundredth birthday and beyond in excellent health,"
says Dr. Ronald Klatz of the American Academy of Anti-Aging. "We're looking at life spans for the baby boomers and the
generation after the baby boomers of 120 to 150 years of age." (more)

Plants Gone Wild!!
 Few houses are abandoned and allowed to be taken over by vegetation. However,
in parts of the south including the city of Atlanta those that are, are susceptible to being engulfed by kudzu. Some make
interesting natural sculptures. Here are twenty seven buildings and old houses in 39 images which are visible from highways and streets in Georgia and South Carolina.
Had major trouble yesterday
I hope we can post today!!

Why Some Get Laughs and Others Get Fired
Some Say the Don Imus Debacle Was a Seminal Moment in American Cultural
History... Media A.I... (After Imus)
For a country founded on free speech, some people are getting
a lot of flack for opening their mouths.... Last week...a New York police sergeant was reassigned after
calling three female officers "hos" during a roll call at a Brooklyn stationhouse. (MORE)

Got some questions about this
Does absinthe really cause hallucinations?
When absinthe was banned in France, Switzerland, the United States and many other countries
in the early 1900s, it had really fallen out of favor. It wasn't just frowned upon; it was accused of creating murderers,
making children into criminals and turning women into "martyrs." That regular old alcohol received similar treatment during the Prohibition period in the United States turns out to be pretty apropos:
We now know that properly manufactured absinthe, an anise-flavored, alcoholic drink, is no more dangerous than any other properly
prepared liquor.
What about the tales of hallucinations, Oscar Wilde and his tulips, family massacres and instant death? Not absinthe's
fault, technically speaking. Absinthe does have a very high alcohol content -- anywhere between 55 and 75 percent, which equates
to about 110 to 144 proof. It makes whiskey's standard 40 percent (80 proof) seem like child's play, which is why absinthe
is supposed to be diluted. Absinthe is not a hallucinogen; its alcohol content and herbal flavor sets it apart from other
liquors.

Physicist Hawking gets taste of zero-gravity
CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (Reuters) - British physicist Stephen Hawking took a flight on Thursday that gave the renowned
scientist, who is confined to a wheelchair, a taste of the weightlessness of space.
Hawking, 65, and an entourage of caretakers and other thrill-seekers took off from the space shuttle's runway at the Kennedy
Space Center in a specially modified jet that dives through the sky to give passengers an experience of zero gravity.
They returned to the space center in Florida about two hours later.
So this is happening in other parts of the world also...
Taiwan stung by millions of missing bees
TAIPEI (Reuters) - Taiwan's bee farmers are feeling the sting of lost business and possible crop danger after millions
of the honey-making, plant-pollinating insects vanished during volatile weather, media and experts said on Thursday.
Over the past two months, farmers in three parts of Taiwan have reported most of their bees gone, the Chinese-language
United Daily News reported. Taiwan's TVBS television station said about 10 million bees had vanished in Taiwan.
A beekeeper on Taiwan's northeastern coast reported 6 million insects missing "for no reason", and one in the south said
80 of his 200 bee boxes had been emptied, (continued)

Looney Tunes
Remember all those great lines from the Looney Tunes Cartoons?
Bugs Bunny, Foghorn Leghorn, Little Red Riding Hood, Elmer Fudd & Porky Pig?
Here they are!... Lots of 'em!
I always thought we survived because we were Stinky
Hairless, clawless, and largely weaponless, ancient humans used the unlikely
combination of sweatiness and relentlessness to gain the upper hand over their faster, stronger, generally more dangerous
animal prey,
Modern humans and their immediate
ancestors such as Homo erectus sport several adaptations that make humans, instead of some ferocious, furry, or fleet creature,
the animal world’s best distance runners. (continued)
