POPSThe Michelle Obama Middle Class Tax Cut Diet And to do so, the Obamas need to take the extra dough from Joe the Plumber, who I guess surpassed the threshold for the American dream, and spread the wealth around (and you can be sure the Obama's are experts at "spreading the wealth around" :D as only they can) ;)

POPSRising ocean acidity slows marine fertilisation: study It doesn't matter if you call it global warming (Or global weirding as Bear suggested, I think). It doesn't matter if it was caused by us or not. The ocean are dying. The land is dying or changing. And we say it is bad to mine shale oil, but the oil companies don't give a shit about anything but the dollar. It is time to do. Time to convince politicians that the abusers have to be stopped.

POPSA brief story of the first Thanksgiving
Mental Floss has a nice, brief history of the first Thanksgiving, including a few of the foods that were served at that first festival (which was three days long). There were no pumpkin pies or cranberry sauce, no sweet or white potatoes. Yes, there was turkey, but there was also venison, swans, ducks, partridges and seafood including lobsters, clams and eel. The vegetables were usually stewed: squash (including pumpkins - a new treat for the Pilgrims) onions, beans, peas and carrots. There was no sugar available, so they satisfied their sweet tooth with corn pudding and dried berries. All this was cooked primarily by the nine surviving females: four married women and five adolescent girls. Fire roasting (such as venison) was handled by the men. Water at the time could easily be contaminated, so the Pilgrims and their Native American guests drank beer and occasionally goat's milk. No cows at that time, either. There are some good links to authentic recipes and more history,

POPSStone Age Settlement Found Under English Channel Divers brought the material to the surface still embedded in slabs of the sea floor that were carried up in specially-designed boxes, which were then pieced back together and examined and dated in the lab. "We now have unequivocal evidence of human activity at the site," Momber told LiveScience. "There were people here actively making stuff and being quite industrious." At 8,000 years old, the settlement is the only underwater Mesolithic site in Britain, though it is probably part of a much larger area of occupation yet to be uncovered, Momber said. As the climate began to warm up near the end of the Ice Age about 10,000 years ago, people were moving into Northern Europe and settling down in the many river valleys left behind by melting glaciers, Momber explained.
