To be smashed and flooded

Louisiana is about to be jacked up. These pictures I took show life in Jefferson Parish, south of New Orleans. This is definitely not a time to be in a damn houseboat. And regular houses are built on stilts because the place floods all the time. Of course, the area is also evacuated now, so residents won’t be able to return home if there are any standing floodwaters after the storm expected for tonight and tomorrow.

Looks like Lance lied…

CHICAGO — Doctors should not be required to discuss fetal pain with women seeking abortions because fetuses likely can’t feel pain until late in pregnancy, according to a review critics say hardly settles the contentious topic.

The Pastafarian Challenge

Boing Boing has posted the Pastafarian Challenge, in an effort to refute I.D. ridiculousness. Here’s the gist of it:

We are willing to pay any individual $250,0000 if they can produce empirical evidence which proves that Jesus is not the son of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

African Wildlife in the Midwest?

Thus spake Evil Overload

“A bold conservation plan dubbed “Pleistocene Park” could see lions, cheetahs and elephants roaming America’s Great Plains, it was revealed today.

The new project would also involve potentially dangerous animals - albeit ones from the modern era. Its aim is to revitalise ecosystems, generate ecotourism and create land management jobs to help struggling economies in rural areas of the US.

The plan envisaged by scientists at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, would see these lost creatures replaced with present-day counterparts, including Asian and African elephants, lions, cheetahs, Bactrian camels, feral horses, and wild asses.

“There are going to have to be some major attitude shifts. That includes realising predation is a natural role, and that people are going to have to take precautions.”

Evidence showed that animals near the top of the food chain were vital to structuring ecological systems and maintaining biodiversity, the researchers said.”

Hehehe. I think the government is trying to reintroduce natural selection in order to raise standardized test scores and combat obesity. Link
