Iodine 131 found in AZ Milk. Apparently, recent tests of milk samples in Arizona. Have detected higher concentrations of radioactive Iodine 131. As usual, residents of Arizona are told not to worry, that these levels are far below the FDA's threshold of action. This test did not include information about any other radioactive isotopes. The FDA's allowable level of all. Someone's 10 year old daughter? A breastfeeding mother of 2 children? A man who grows food for his neighbors? Links to this post. Arnie G...

Squeezing the Hourglass: March 2015
http://squeezingthehourglass.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Time, Metal, More. Tuesday, March 31, 2015. Researchers in Britain and the U.S. have found that a medieval concoction meant to treat eye infections also has the ability to kill the MRSA superbug.

Squeezing the Hourglass: November 2014
http://squeezingthehourglass.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Time, Metal, More. Friday, November 28, 2014. All over the place. Most of the stuff people stress about isn't actionable. Ferguson, Fukushima, financial meltdown.and that's just a subset of the letter "F.". Oh sure, you can come up with a plan, organize people, make a group. And those are fine behaviors. Good even. Maintaining your own mental health, confidence, and sense of agency are prerequisites to any sustained external action. This is the dream. I can't believe these people work so hard for this.

Every other day, when I peek in at Haiti, my heart starts beating fast… I click through pictures, and I read “nearly 200,000 dead.” And I try to imagine: What would Oakland (where I live now), or Flushing, NY (where I grew up), look like if there were upwards of 200,000 dead people lying in the streets? I close the screen. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). On HAITI: Dear Journalists, Looting Doesnt Exist . Cuz We Said So!
