Yahoo! News - Colorado Teens Fined for Giving Cookies to Neighbor

Yahoo! News - Colorado Teens Fined for Giving Cookies to Neighbor

Comments: WTF! President Bush should send in Harry Potter and let him work a little magic on some people in Durango.

Or how about a new reality show - "Teenagers with Cookies Terrorize Neighbors"... or a game show - "Who Has the Biggest Butthole Neighbors?"

Are judges impeached, recalled, or disbarred?

Jon Bon Jovi

Hey, I just got an email that said Jon Bon Jovi joined the Spiritual Cinema Circle.

I'm a member too! You'll see my thoughts about one of last month's selections called "RETREAT" in the next few days.

The Spiritual Cinema Circle was started by producer Stephen Simon. He produced "Somewhere in Time" and "What Dreams May Come" and is the producer/director of the new movie "Indigo".

If you enjoy good movies, documentaries, and short films you need to check it out.



More about probiotics.

I was reading an article in Prevention magazine on the benefits of including probiotics in you good health plan.

Seems the good bacteria alleviate a host of digestive system complaints - from bloating to irritable bowel. Also helpful for sinus and urinary tract infections.

According to the research, there are moderate benefits for infections and eczema. And be sure to consult the Doc FIRST! if you have any serious problems. Find one that will work with you.

I still think the best way to get a healthy dose of healty, live bacteria, is with a natural food product, like KEFIR (this being my first choice) and YOGURT... not capsules or pills. If you buy kefir or yogurt at the store , make sure it says LIVE cultures on the package.

See my earlier post on 1/26/05, "Kefir or Grow Your Own Probiotics at Home" to find out how you can make KEFIR at home. It's easy.

Add Fructooligosaccharides, or FOS to keep the B. Bifidum happy too.

Chimps' Sense of Justice Found Similar to Humans'

Science & Technology at Scientific American.com: Chimps' Sense of Justice Found Similar to Humans'

Comments: I think the title would be more accurate if it said, "Humans' Sense of Justice Found Similar to Chimps'." If you don't believe that take a look at all the petty things that tick us off.

Will the evolution of our consciousness ever catch up with our technological cleverness?
