POPSStudying volcanoes with flying balloons :) "The balloons are piloted remotely by satellite link," Durant explained, "with flight visualization using Google Earth. We were looking at tropospheric volcanic emissions of sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide and water, which can be hazardous to human and animal health and degrade ecosystems."

POPSYelapa Paradise lost and found Already thinking about the next break? Well, Jalisco way, wintertime is the best time to vacation. This little village, YELAPA, nestled in the Bay of Banderas on Mexico's west coast is a treasure waiting rediscovery. I had the good fortune finding this gem by chance. After one week was ready to pack up and relocate. This is not a place for those seeking creature conforts (they can also be found) rather, this is where you go to be a part of the community or just to RELAX. Electricity only arrived a couple of years ago, no automobiles to be found. All transportation is by foot, horse, mule or boat. No street lights, no streets. Flashlights needed. This is where you go to contemplate the possibilities, to reevaluate, to find that inner child and let her/him go free. The locals are warm, friendly, open, reseptive to ALL only asking that you in turn respect and enjoy this haven. Isabel is a remarkable woman and reason alone to visit Yelapa.

On the day that Sunil died, Dow Chemical’s CEO Andrew Liveris visited the UN to deliver a much-publicised speech. Fireboats hired by Dow’s public relations agency jetted huge sprays aloft over the Hudson River as Liveris told the assembled diplomats “Lack of clean water is the single largest cause of disease in the world and more than 4,500 children die each day because of it … We are determined to win a victory over the problem of access to clean water for every person on earth … we need to bring to the fight the kinds of things companies like Dow do best.” Stirring words. But when asked if he would clean up Bhopal, where the drinking wells of 20,000 people have been poisoned by chemicals abandoned by Dow’s subsidiary Union Carbide, causing an epidemic of cancers and hundreds of children to be born malformed and with brain damage, Liveris replied, “We don’t feel this is our responsibility”. Liveris couldn’t be more wrong. Under the “polluter pays” principle enshrined in both Ind

POPSA Whale of a Story What a mess.... I bet it stunk to high heaven. We had a whale that beached just 7-8 mile down the beach from where I am. They did a partial autopsy on the spot and took what the wanted then they buried the rest in the dunes.
