Greetings.

Jewish date:  18 ’Adhar 5770 (Parashath Ki Thissa’).

Today’s quasi-holiday:  March Forth – Do Something Day.

Worthy causes of the day:  “Tell the FDA to Update Nutrition Label Info - The Petition Site”, “DemocracyForAmerica.com » Become a Citizen Co-Sponsor”, This is how we stop Blackwater for good.“”, and “Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) | Tell Democrats We Have Their Backs”.

Today’s news and commentary:

• “Waste Land: Does the Large Amount of Food Discarded in the U.S. Take a Toll on the Environment?”
  
• “Generation Gap”
• “Chile Earthquake May Have Shortened Days on Earth”
  
• “Galactic Lenses Confirm Universe's Age, Size”
  
• “Down the Hatch(ling): Nest-Raiding Snake Gulped Newborn Titanosaurs”
  
• “Engraved Ostrich Eggshell Fragments Reveal 60,000-Year-Old Graphic Design Tradition”
  
• “Do Stolen E-Mails Show Climate Science Malfeasance?”:  The answer is “no”.
  
• “Gut bacteria gene complement dwarfs human genome”
  

Today’s weird thing is “Rainbow Roses”.  These are not a breed, but rather specially treated flowers.  I had no idea they could work such an effect by injecting a plant with dyes.  Enjoy and share the weirdness.
