Its a part of the package...along with the plant reproduction modifications they do get tangible benefits and are lured down the road of genetically modified (and corporately controlled) crops. obviously people won't by a product unless it purports to have a tangible benefit, which it might...and perhaps along with a few hidden "benefits" (i.e. benefits for Monsanto). at any rate...the point was that genetic modification isn't always done in "our best interest"...its done in the interest of the corporation. historically there are many problems with the product and business practices of these companies, including Monsanto, so why should we trust them now? at anyrate, I'm not arguing for unfounded or nonfactual slamming of frankenfood companies. there is enough historical evidence to validate maintaining a healthy skepticism about the business practices of these companies. and as for the farmers that bought the seed for the "tangible benefits"...well as foolish as it makes them seem for buying the product in the first place, it seems that some of them think they have a court case against Monsanto. who knows how that will turn out.

So they have cameras in the bathroom at your school Ivan?

Who are you trying to kid, beside yourself? The changes occurring worldwide in food production are not motivated simply or primarily by altruistic desires to end world hunger. It's about money. Control. Got to love the cases where genetic modification has nothing to do with improving life or even improving production...but with enforcing control over the product (i.e. genetic modification so that reproduction of the seed is not possible). It truly is about money (understandably so...the motive of a corporation is to make money, not to save the world). Also the stories of genetically modified plants blowing into the neighboring fields resulting in lawsuits by Monsanto, etc against the farmers who own those fields. There is plenty to be paranoid about when it comes to Frankenfood....much of it isn't actually related to just what happens to you when you eat it, but then I'm not qualified to talk about it because I'm not a plant geneticist or crop scientist.

I thought it was pretty good, they played a few song off their upcoming album. Even with earplugs my ears where ringing this morning. Good stuff...like that band Hovercraft but without the movie to go along with the music. The Japanese group was pretty good too...there was also some guy doing a painting up on stage during the show changing colors and brush strokes according to the music.

beer and food? tell me more.

Nice Carl!

THANK GAWD FOR THE INTERNETS I CAN HAVE THIS IN MY HOME!!!

yo nerd, you got the URL wrong

it was unknown...a bacterial infection. they swabbed some staph out of my nose, but were unable to get anything to grow from samples taken from my arm.

side project is herzog, so they can screw around and invent stuff for kinski

but you would live longer

Its just a continuation of the arguement that everything is natural. Nuclear waste, oil spills, etc...all occur naturally. How could anything occur unnaturally, anyway?

someone find and share these!

opening for Mono : Mono are a four-piece instrumental post-rock band from Tokyo. Their names are Tamaki, Taka Goto, Yoda, and Yasunori Takada. They are on a two-month U.S. tour in support their release You Are There. In Japan, their four lauded releases in five years have made them influential and acclaimed. Their performances have turned them into a band that needs to be seen and heard. The post part of their post-rock is wielded with two sides: one, a sledgehammer, and the other, a paint brush. With sheer and massive volume, they put their sledgehammer through the ice of a frozen lake. Overhead, they war with a pterodactyl, and paint the scene. The Mono crescendo is poised and builds precisely. The sledgehammer strikes and the giant prehistoric bird falls hard. The ice breaks and the half-dead animal sinks slowly down through the black depths to the hypothermia of its permanent sleep. Mono didn't want to kill, they had to; the city is safe again.

There is a special, non-fatal Darwin award for cases like this. I think this is a contender. Of course if he missed his scrotum and they can get his goods out of him some other way then perhaps not.

THATS RIGHT BITCHES!!! I'M BACK!!!
