Senseless - (USA)
Everyday no one is spared by reports about children killed by preventable diseases, natural calamities, traffic accidents, military and rebel operations and criminal elements who continue to roam the streets even after they were identified by witnesses as the main culprit. Adults are supposed to take personal responsibility for their lives and the lives of those under their care, the children. Therefore, it follows that the concerned adults have to take most of the blame for whatever happens to

Tree of the Week: The Loquat - (USA)
The Loquat Tree -- Eriobotrya japonica It’s hard not to like the loquat. The tree is small, easy to grow, doesn’t need much room, has big-veined tropical-looking leaves, fragrant flowers and attractive, small-plum-sized golden yellow fruit. Grown from seed it produces acceptable fruit, but for really tasty and large fruit it is wise to plant one of a wide selection of grafted varieties such as "Champagne" (in warm areas), "Gold Nugget" (in cooler parts) or MacBeth (for very large fruit).

Children of Basra learn to live and hope - (USA)
Three wars over 30 years have killed so many adults that half of the population of Iraq's main port are children. In the final part of the Guardian/Observer series, the city's youth tell Martin Chulov of the horrific violence they have endured and how - with improved security - they now dream of escaping poverty and living a normal life of work, fun and peace Children across Iraq are renowned for ageing ahead of their years; but in Basra childhood has been little more than fleeting for three ge

New and Exciting in PLoS ONE - (USA)
You really need to go to a PLoS ONE paper and take a look - we have done some nifty home remodeling ;-) What is really new and important is that there are all sorts of article-level metrics on each paper. The same goes for all the other TOPAZ-based PLoS journals (i.e., all but PLoS Biology - you may have noticed that PLoS Medicine has migrated onto TOPAZ as well). Mark Patterson explains what and why. Pete Binfield gives you a new house tour. And Richard Cave gives the information f

Measurements taken over the past 30 years indicate our globe is getting warmer. Additionally, in some regions, rainfall patterns have changed dramatically. Additionally man has encroached into the jungles and remote rainforests, increasing his exposure to seldom encountered pathogens. And of course, man travels with greater ease an

Ali A. Rizvi: The Ultimate 9-Step Guide to Looking Good - (USA)
It's a constant struggle. Fat's no good. Neither are carbs. Red meat's got cholesterol. White meat's full of hormones. Dairy's got too much lactose. Fish has some good cholesterol, but causes mercury poisoning. Vegetables give you gas and require vitamin supplementation. Cannibalism is illegal. And I'm too self-conscious to take my jiggling torso to a public gym. But you can be a little fat and still be healthy. You can also look drop-dead gorgeous and be unhealthy. The bottom line is,

Swine Flu Talking Points - (USA)
As of this writing, the swine flu totals in the US are: 2600 Confirmed Cases in 44 States ( source ). The mutated virus has been spreading. The CDC says, “It’s thought that novel influenza A (H1N1) flu spreads in the same way that regular seasonal influenza viruses spread; mainly through the coughs and sneezes of people who are sick with the virus.” Since this flu originated from swine and birds, the illness is related to veganism and animal rights. Here are some talking points we should use

Better Understanding Virus Diseases in Plants - (USA)
Of all the agents which cause diseases in plants, animals and humans, viruses are the most intriguing, the most baffling and, unfortunately, the most difficult to combat. Like the winds of a hurricane, you cannot see them but you can see the effects which they produce. Modern understanding of the nature of viruses dates back less than 125 years even though virus diseases of plants and people were described or known to exist hundreds and even thousands of years earlier. The word “virus”

A SOCIAL MOVEMENT THAT WOULD BENEFIT FROM CULTURAL MOVEMENT - (USA)
Convincing the average omnivore that animal rights, or better said, animal protection matters is not an easy task. It is a social movement about change. Reading an article in today's NY Times Magazine about this exact challenge I wondered how Cultural Movement could make a difference. "Social change," you ask? Don't most people want to protect animals right? When I use "animal" I don't only mean house pets, but also farm animals. I've always been strongly opposed to the poor treatment of any
