Yankees, Good for Baseball?

The Yankees are back in the World Series. Is that good or bad for baseball?

They get good rating and bring in TV revenue.

They win because they can afford to get the best players. Does this help all players because it keeps compensation up? Does it hurt players on other teams?

Global Warming or Climate Change

Today i join others just to mention a few things about our changing planet.

I know the evidence that the planet has changed a few time before we were here.

There is geological evidence everywhere.

And for those scripturally oriented even the Bible talks about God pushing back or separating the waters.


So while I know there has always been dramatic change and there may well be regardless of what we do, we need to act responsibly. We need to find balance with our environment.

As the recent experiment with the moon has shown, it won’t be easy to find water or anything else we need on another planet.

This is the only one we have. Let’s take care of it.

The Wodaabe faces

I really like the images Bing uses each day.

You can actually learn a lot from them.

It was because of today's that a learned some more about the Wodaabe people.

Story about zoo using painted donkeys as zerbas

Just saw this story on MSNBC about a zoo in Gaza using painted donkeys as zebras.

Take a look:

The article actually talks about how the previous zebras passed away. Don't judge until you read it.

Nice Picture too.
