But what could be more streotypical, patronizing and inherently racist than that line of thinking? Those comments show that Republicans wrongly assume that Hispanics can't think for themselves and march in lockstep with Sotomayor, a racist notion in itself.

Climate Future - Extinction Level Event

An Examination of the Frog Extinction Epidemic
2008-05-10 11:00:00 Although many factors are involved in this epidemic, one of the worst is the Chytrid fungus epidemic. It is being spread by Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), which causes chytridiomycosis. This fungal disease is devastating frog populations all over the world, but particularly in Australia, and North, Central and South America.The devastation in Central America has been particularly acute, with many species simply vanishing from the face of the Earth. Bd is just now spreading here in the US, with serious devastation of Sierra Mountain Yellow-Legged Frog populations in the Sierra Nevada. However, some populations are apparently surviving the epidemic with some some survivors intact and thereupon rebuilding their populations.A paper in Nature (Pounds 2006) made the case that the chytrid epidemic was being driven by global warming. They suggested that Bd had always been there but had only become pathogenic in the face of global warming.A new paper (Lips 2008) in the journal PLoS Bio...

Movie Review: Resident Evil Extinction
2008-04-29 02:06:00 Having never been a fan of the game franchise (I think they're rather stupid myself, but that's because I like FPS games instead), I have always loved the film adaptations. Why? Because I love zombie movies, even ones like 28 Days Later where the "zombies" aren't really zombies (and actually all those Romero incarnations aren't truly zombie movies either--look it up...try Haiti). Regardless of what you might think about the games, the first Resident Evil flick was darn good. It managed to terrify the crap out of us with those zombie dogs and the truly frightening zombified people. We were able to forgive the makers for the poor CGI too, since those weird mutation things were sort of bad, but didn't take up the screen much.Then came Resident Evil 2 and those of us who liked the first movie were screaming "yes", right up until we saw and we were screaming "no". It seems that awesome cliff-hanger ending in the first film was turned into another relatively interesting idea th...
Christian Assyrians Face Extinction in Northern Iraq
2008-04-25 11:36:00 Thousands of Christians fleeing persecution in other parts of Iraq have returned since 2004 to ancestral lands in the Nineveh Plain, just north and east of Mosul.While they have escaped the Islamic militias who slaughtered family members and burned down their houses and churches in Baghdad and Mosul, now they face a new battle. Today's enemies are poverty, joblessness, and despair.Jamal Dinha, mayor of Bartella, a large Christian village east of Mosul, painted a dire picture of the life these persecuted Christians now face in this Kurdish-controlled safe haven."The situation in our region is critical. Our young people are unemployed. We have IDPs [internally-displaced people] from everywhere. Our infrastructure is bad. Our cultural and scientific institutions don't exist. We have no electricity, bad water, broken streets."The despair is driving many families to emigrate a second time to Syria and Jordan. More...

Kentucky Hemlock Trees Threatened with Extinction
2008-04-19 22:24:00 Kentucky’s hemlock trees are threatened with extinction by the hemlock woolly adelgid, a beetle originally from Osaka, Japan which has decimated East Coast hemlocks from Massachusetts to Georgia. It has no natural enemies in North America and, with global warming, may ultimately spread as far north as the Canadian Maritimes. Massive stands of hemlock have died in both the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia — where an estimated 90 percent of hemlocks have been decimated — and the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, leaving skeletal-appearing standing timber. The aphid-like beetle has been spotted in the Eastern Kentucky counties of Bell, Clay, Harlan, Leslie, Letcher, Pike, Powell and Whitley, as well as in urban areas much farther west in Grayson and Oldham counties. First introduced in the 1920s to the Pacific Northwest and in the 1950s to Washington, DC and Richmond, VA, the woolly adelgid feeds on hemlock needles, depriving trees of nutrients. Left untreate...

0 Down Mortgages Headed for Extinction
2008-04-08 02:11:00 I received word in my email this afternoon that zero down mortgages were gone. Fannie and Freddie have several high loan to value programs available, but mortgage insurers are simply not writing the policies any more. Even risk based policies are gone.This means that while the program may exist, no investor will buy them. I checked a few other lenders before writing this post and saw they still had them for now, but I expect the die-off to complete itself before week's end.A clue of this outcome came last week when Congress made a compromise in the housing bill to raise FHA loan down payments instead of lowering them. This is a pretty big indicator of the fear associated with high LTV loans.Senate Democrats also yielded ground on a provision to change the down payment requirements for FHA loans. Democrats have been pushing to reduce them, but the bipartisan agreement actually increases them by half a percentage point. That may not fly in the House, when it considers the package...

Recovering from a mass extinction
2008-03-18 18:39:00 The full recovery of ecological systems, following the most devastating extinction event of all time, took at least 30 million years, according to new research from the University of Bristol. About 250 million years ago, at the end of the Permian, a major extinction event killed over 90 per cent of life on earth, including insects, plants, marine animals, amphibians, and reptiles. Ecosystems were destroyed worldwide, communities were restructured and organisms were left struggling to recover. This was the nearest life ever came to being completely wiped out.Previous work indicates that life bounced back quite quickly, but this was mostly in the form of ‘disaster taxa’ (opportunistic organisms that filled the empty ecospace left behind by the extinction), such as the hardy Lystrosaurus, a barrel-chested herbivorous animal, about the size of a pig. The most recent research, conducted by Sarda Sahney and Professor Michael Benton at the University of Bristol and published in Proceed...

Each installment has introduced new gameplay mechanics, interesting characters, clever puzzles and the best possible graphics. The problem many people had with the first Resident Evil movie was that it didn’t include any of the game’s characters. Not even one. Director Paul Anderson said he did this on purpose so fans of the games wouldn’t know which characters would die or survive. Um, OK, I can appreciate that, but it’s stil...

Butterfly Fish 'May Face Extinction'
2008-02-28 10:48:00 A beautiful black, white and yellow butterflyfish, much admired by eco-tourists, divers and aquarium keepers alike, may be at risk of extinction, scientists have warned।The case of the Chevroned Butterflyfish is a stark example of how human pressure on the world’s coral reefs is confronting certain species with ‘blind alleys’ from which they may be unable to escape, says Dr Morgan Pratchett of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies and James Cook University.In a study published in the journal Behavioural Ecology and Sociobiology Dr Pratchett and Dr Michael Berumen of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (USA) warn that the highly specialized nature of the feeding habits of this particular butterflyfish – the distinctively patterned Chaetodon trifascialis - make it an extinction risk as the world’s coral reefs continue to degrade due to human over-exploitation, pollution and climate change.“The irony is that these butterflyfish are widespread around the wor...

Creationist museum avoids extinction - for now
2008-01-21 16:21:00 This was reported a few days ago: A Texas museum that teaches creationism is counting on the auction of a prehistoric mastodon skull to stave off extinction. The founder and curator of the Mt. Blanco Fossil Museum, which rejects evolution and claims that man and dinosaurs coexisted, said it will close unless the Volkswagen-sized skull finds a generous bidder. Unfortunately, the 40,000-year-old skull was sold for $191,200, so the "museum" will hang around a little while longer. Source Paul J.
