Students protesting coal ash dumping in Virginia rivers arrested

Why we shouldn’t trust General Mills and their GMO labeling announcement
Corporations announce plans to proactively label their GMO products–should we trust them?
They say you should never look a gift horse in the mouth. But one wonders if that old adage needs a bit of updating in a much more cynical and conniving age.

TIME TO DECRIMINALIZE
New study calls drug war a failure, says it’s time to decriminalize
A recent Johns Hopkins study calls out the drug war as the massive failure it has proven to be, and exhorts the US and other countries to pursue a humane policy of decriminalizing non-violent minor drug offenses.
Citing damage done to public health, human rights, and infection rates, the study, known as the Johns Hopkins-Lancet Commission on Public Health and International Drug Policy, suggests its time to decriminalize all minor use infractions, and possession of all drugs so long as there is no violence involved in the offenses.… Read the rest
RECORD BREAKING WARMING
February temp deviations crush previous measures how hot can it get?
What’s it going to take for climate deniers to finally admit the truth? It’s hot and getting hotter, no two ways about it. All the bloviating from paid industry hacks, their geisha girls in Congress, and their rent-boys in the media to the contrary means absolutely nothing in the face of record-breaking weather every month.… Read the rest

But if you’re waiting for charges to come down on officials at Halliburton or thinking you might see Dick Cheney hauled away on a perp-walk, don’t hold your breath.
