    Plastic Ocean Garbage “Vac from the Sea”

    Plastic Ocean Garbage “Vac from the Sea”

    Electrolux is bringing attention to the Pacific Garbage Patch and the whole issue of plastic trash clogging up too much of our oceans. According to Electrolux, “The plan is to make a limited number of vacuum cleaners from plastic debris harvested from the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic Oceans and the Mediterranean, Baltic and North Seas.  Continue reading...

    Reebok Likes Rebox – Reused Cardboard Boxes

    Reebok Likes Rebox – Reused Cardboard Boxes

    Reebok and many other companies including Wal-Mart, Foot Locker, and TJ Maxx are all clients of Rebox, a corrugated box company. The thing that sets Rebox apart is that this St. Laurent, Quebec company is focusing on reusing rather than always making new cardboard boxes. Takes the typical curbside cardboard recycling thing up a notch.  Continue reading...

    A Tripe Down Dog Food Lane

    A Tripe Down Dog Food Lane

    Given the popularity of a post a few months ago on green tripe for dogs (and cats), I thought today I’d look at dehydrated tripe treats. For years we’ve fed ground up frozen green tripe. I’ve even gotten more or less used to the distinctive ‘farm’ odour of the stuff. But only more recently have  Continue reading...

    Agreement Reached To Save Gulf Turtles from Incineration

    Agreement Reached To Save Gulf Turtles from Incineration

    Good news on the endangered turtle front in the Gulf of Mexico. Especially for the Kemp’s Ridley turtle that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has said is the rarest and most threatened. Reuters reported Saturday that, “Environmental groups, BP (BP.N) (BP.L) and the U.S. Coast Guard reached tentative agreement on Friday on measures  Continue reading...

    Have you Watered Your Clock Lately?

    Have you Watered Your Clock Lately?

    Feeling like something a little lighter today? Something fun? How about another essentially ‘free to power’ gadget? Not solar this time, but water. No dam or massive flow of water needed for this one however. Just less than a glass of the stuff and these clever little clocks can run for days, weeks, some longer.  Continue reading...

    Big Tobacco Happy – Racketeers But Pay No Money

    Big Tobacco Happy – Racketeers But Pay No Money

    This week, two appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court involving tobacco companies have been denied to be heard. One decision favoured Big Tobacco, the other did not. But both had to do with a 2006 U.S. District Court ruling by Judge Gladys Kessler. In her landmark 1,683 page ruling found nine major tobacco manufacturers guilty  Continue reading...

    Doctor’s Office Disinfectant – The Smell of Fear

    Doctor’s Office Disinfectant – The Smell of Fear

    White coat syndrome. That visceral, heart thumping, anxious, nerve-driven reaction that predictably pops up the second you see that tell-tale while lab coat. But wait, it starts before that doesn’t it? More like the second you first detect that smell. Just what is it about medical disinfectant? It just smells so, well, medical. So like  Continue reading...

    Whale Poop is Nature’s Perfect Carbon Offset

    Whale Poop is Nature’s Perfect Carbon Offset

    Life is messy, and I don’t just mean figuratively. Literal mess, muck, puke, and poop. We may like to distance ourselves from it as much as possible, but just as we all put our pants on one leg and a time, we all generate the stuff. And good thing we do or else life wouldn’t  Continue reading...

    Politics and Religion – Taboo Talk or Opportunity?

    Politics and Religion – Taboo Talk or Opportunity?

    Whoever first said ‘don’t discuss politics and religion’ may have been on to something. It is probably one of the surest ways to turn friends into enemies, or at least damage friendships. But perhaps that happens because we don’t discuss these taboo subjects enough, rather than too much. I very nearly had one of those  Continue reading...

    Criminal Minds Cast Update – Bad, Good, and New Bad

    Criminal Minds Cast Update – Bad, Good, and New Bad

    It’s a fine line to walk sometimes. How long do you wait to comment on a piece of news that’s still evolving? Wait too long and it’s no longer news. Don’t wait long enough and the information could change. Since I’m here writing on the latest Criminal Minds development, I guess I’m erring on the  Continue reading...
