Those interested in or concerned about climate change will probably know that methane release from melting permafrost in the Arctic is a major unknown as a "tipping point" that could send the climate system into a tailspin as far as human interests are concerned. Until now, I hadn't heard about any ways of stopping the release of methane. Then today I read about a Russian scientist who suggested just the kind of solution that fascinates me:Zimov is reintroducing the grasses and herbivores that dominated northern Siberian steppes 10,000 years ago, and he plans to bulldoze portions of the park's larch forest and shrubland. Foxtail and cotton grass are taking root, providing fodder for Yakutian horses, reindeer, musk oxen and bison Zimov envisions on the park's flatlands.Steppe terrain inhibi
This beautiful example of African art is a Mask made of wood, fiber, beads, and pigment. It is from Angola or the Democratic Republic of Congo. It is from the late 19th-early 20th century. The word Chokwe leads the discription. I am not sure if that is the tribe or what. I believe it to be absolutely gorgeous though.Well, soggy it is. It has rained almost non stop since about 5 yesterday afternoon. It's getting boring to say the least. We probably will wait to shop until at least Sunday, letting it dry out, if indeed it stops raining any time soon. Water is starting to pool around in the "yard" and our creek may start flooding us--just kidding.I'm nearly done cleaning the craft room. Just a few more baskets of this and that's to go through and redistribute to their proper location. I'm qu

Where is heartland?May be much closer than you think.Thanks to technology most of the things we used to do have become easier and faster and I would even arrive to say that sometimes technology has made possible the impossible.You just need to know the right website and it will be very easy to find a date with a single woman or man.Once people married and that used to be forever, in good or bad.Now a days it is mostly in good, because when bad comes (and it always come) most of us decide to be single again.But that lasts till we realize how nice it was not being a single and we start looking again.To find a single it is mostly a matter of how than of when and if.To find the RIGHT single, Miss X or Mister Y more a matter of choosing the right Dating Site than a matter of luck.So, what do we

Their first time drew to a close, and Jeanne panicked about facing Patrice in a few minutes. She and Kevin had dressed and she was hurrying, unreasonably anxious about picking up Colette. Kevin swept her onto his lap so that she faced him.
“Please, don’t be ashamed. What you and I do here has nothing to do with anything else. You need to remain steady for Patrice, the girls, for everyone’s sake. Especially our own.”
He held her face lightly, so that she concentrated on his gaze. After a few beats, though, Jeanne shut her eyes. “We can’t do this again. We just can’t. Because it’s the stupidest, oldest story in the world.”
“For anyone else that might be true. But Jeanne?” He took her wrists and swung her arms a little. “You and me? It’s extraordinary.”

Like there’s nobody else in the world
I was enough for her not long ago
I was her number one
She told me so
And she still...

Here's an piece worth sharing (from Huntington News in WV). Editorial: Hagel Will Sell Well In the Heartland In every presidential primary, Republican or Democrat, each party's dominant wing (right for Republicans, left for Democrats) are courted heavily. Take the Republicans. Even if the vast majority of Republican voters are not strongly conservative in the Republican primaries, those conservatives are highly prized because they always vote and are passionate enough to get others to vote. So every Republican who wants to have a chance of victory is talking conservatives' language on social issues and foreign policy in anticipation of next year's primary contests. Even former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is trying to convince wary conservatives that his liberal advocacy on issues ranging from abortion to gun control to gay rights is behind him now. What a relief for supporters of U.S. Senator Chuck Hagel (R-Nebraska) that their man d

Have you ever been in a restaurant with lousy service and realized that not a single person in the place really cares? That should not be the case at any of the Heartland Brewery locations in New York City if founder and Chief Executive Officer Jon Bloostein and his partners go forward with an employee stock ownership plan proposal they announced this week.
Under the plan Heartland will continue to be managed by Bloostein but, 49 percent of the company's stock will be transferred to 380 employees. Corporate Solutions Group, a New York investment banking house, put together the transaction.
Bloostein said he had looked at finding a partner to buy into the chain and had considered offering stock to the public, but decided on the deal to employees. Heartland was founded in 1995 on Union Square and has five locations in Manhattan. The company also recently launched the Spanky's BBQ brand.
