The Democratic Battle

February 24, 2008 PV Leave a comment

So much for all the talk about a splintered Republican Race a few weeks ago. Look at how close the Democratic race has been. Hopefully for them they will have a nominee after the Texas & Ohio primaries. With all the focus on their primary race, McCain is even getting away with allegations about his ties to lobbyists, the very basis of his political campaign being the fight against them. Obama is looking more & more likely to secure the Democratic nomination. But you never know, a good win in Texas can turn things around for Mrs.Clinton. But her every move is back firing right now & isn’t scoring her any political  points(like her plagiarism charge).Well it will definitely be interesting to watch all the events unfold for the political junkies in the months to come.

Fair argument for calculating emissions

December 12, 2007 PV Leave a comment

This is the fairest argument I’ve ever heard on how to calculate carbon emissions. If some system can be worked out along these lines & if all major players can come to agreement on a new protocol, it will be a major step towards the reduction of carbon emissions. Meanwhile what can I do? Don’t know. I will have to research smaller steps I can taken to do my part.

Time to Hibernate

September 15, 2007 PV Leave a comment

After one of the hottest month’s in recent history, it started to get a little chilly in St.Louis. Looks like winter’s here this year without a warning. Are these rapid changes in climate also a sign of global warming? Don’t know, but weather in this part of the country has always been fickle. I guess it is time to hibernate.

Inca mummy

Look at how well preserved this Inca mummy is, which is on display in a museum in Argentina. Don’t know why but I always find anything related to the Inca’s intriguing. Always feel like I want to know more about their great civilization.
