“Verily spendthrifts are brothers of the Evil one; and the Evil one is to his Lord(himself) ungrateful” (17:27)

I am always astonished at how wasteful our society has become. It has put new meaning into the word “disposable income”. Think for a moment of how our landfills are overflowing. The more we throw away, the more money we waste as well. The old expression “made to last” no longer seems to apply to our consumer goods and we toss aside many things without a thought as to how we can reduce the waste ?

Here are some wise ways that could save you money,save the environment as well. At the very least, you will feel righteous about doing your small part to save the planet. Here are a few simple suggestions:

1. At home or hostel- use fabric napkins instead of paper serviettes. They are very inexpensive, but they make such an impression on people.

2. At work or picnic- take your own mug instead of using the disposable styrofoam cups that are so hazardous in the landfills. If you buy coffee on the road, then take your own travel mug. It is easier to handle than those darn paper cups, and much more attractive besides! » Read more after the jump →

*Who knows that your daily life are threatened by your own vegetables?
Biotechnologist s might know(^_^)

While the University of Minnesota researchers have already stated that livestock have a lot of harmful antibiotics in them, they are now saying that this is also true of vegetables as well.

This study can be found in the Journal of Environmental Quality. It shows that food crops can readily accumulate antibiotics from the soil that has been spread with cattle manure.

These findings were based on a greenhouse study that was done. It involved 3 different food crops. These included corn, lettuce and potatoes. They found that those plants that were grown in soil that was modified with liquid hog manure(yukss… :???: ), which contains the common veterinary antibiotic sulfamethazine, actually absorbed this antibiotic.

It could be found in the plants’ leaves. There were also concentrations in the plants’ tissue. This concentration actually increased as the amount of antibiotic present in the manure increased.

It was also diffused into potato tubers. As such, it is believed that other root crops, which include such things as carrots and radishes, are also particularly vulnerable to antibiotic contamination.

This should cause you to become concerned as it really did concern the University of Minnesota researchers. One of the researchers, Satish Gupta, said that contaminated plants actually have the potential of causing allergic reactions in those people who are sensitive to various antibiotics.

Satish Gupta also said that this type of contamination is likely to foster antimicrobial resistance. This is not good, in fact it is dangerous, because it can render antibiotics ineffective in humans.

Another researcher, Holly Dolliver, wanted to make sure to warn people that those plants that are contaminated by antibiotics should be of particular concern to the organic farming industry. This is because manure is often the main source of crop nutrients.

Of course, the USDA stipulates that organic producers must manage animal materials in a manner that does not contribute to the contamination of crops. This means that residues of prohibited substances are banned and prohibited. Unfortunately, as of yet manures that contain antibiotics have not been formally banned or prohibited by the USDA.

Instead they are saying that there needs to be a lot of further research done. This is needed in order to investigate how different plants absorb different antibiotic compounds.

Moral : Everything that involved with swine, pig or hog will lead to perdition and destruction. :evil:

When building a custom PC there are several different options you will have to think about. The sky is the limit when doing to something like this but for most people there are limitations. Cost, Purpose of the build, features and how long you want it to last are all things that should be considered.

The first thing that you will have to do is set a budget. Cost is the number one limitation of your build. With smaller budgets you will have to cut corners but should spend the money in certain places to improve reliability.

What is the purpose of the build and what are you going to use it for. Are you replacing an old obsolete computer or are you building for the newest game. You will need to know this so you know what hardware we can use. If you trying to run that new game you may run into an issue with cost but you won’t know until you do some research. We can still build a budget gaming rig but you will have to turn down some of the graphics settings to keep a good frame rate. If you want to play music and movies you may want a nice sound card in your computer. » Read more after the jump →
