Curse of the Black Gold

It took two months, I repeat, two months for BP to decide that maybe they should clog the leaking pipe instead of siphoning off a small amount of oil for sale while thousands of barrels continue to leak into the gulf. In Nigeria, Shell has leaked the equivalent of the Exxon valdez spill yearly for the past twenty years completely destroying the Niger-Delta. Yes I know some of that spill is caused by militants, but Shell has don't nothing for the environment but rape it. Something needs to be done, but like many tomorrow I will get in my SUV fill up and complain about gas prices being sky high.

Demons

Every human being carries his or her own demon within, a demon who is at once identical with the person, yet the person's greatest enemy.

My (not so little) Brother Abasa

So my brother is a musician (he would never claim this of course), but anyway, he is the one singing the hook to this song. Download and share with your friends, or just take a listen. I think it is pretty good but then again it is my brother.

Saki Mafundikwa

For the past year and a half, I have been reading this book over and over and over. It is a must read and has inspired my new batch of tees coming out in the fall.

Neanderthals

via Africa is a Country. Do with this what you will . . . . .

From the latest issue of SCIENCE MAGAZINE: "an international team of researchers presents their first detailed analysis of the draft sequence of the Neanderthal genome, which now includes more than 3 billion nucleotides collected from the bones of three female Neanderthals who lived in Croatia more than 38,000 years ago. By comparing this composite Neanderthal genome with the complete genomes of five living humans from different parts of the world, the researchers found that both Europeans and Asians share 1% to 4% of their nuclear DNA with Neanderthals. But Africans do not.”
