Peace Day & the Religious Rioters

On this "Peace Day," I would like to address the religious rioters in some countries. These would be primarily Muslims who are angry at America for 'disrespecting Islam.'

All around the Twin Cities where I live, I see mosques, Islamic centers and people dressed in clothing I would expect to see in the Mideast. They seem to be everywhere; living among the rest of us.

If someone, in your opinion, has disrespected your religion, that does not give you the right to kill people or kill American people. In fact, if you think you can commit murder because someone said something negative about your religion, there is either something seriously wrong with you, or something wrong with your religion--take your pick.

Personally, I believe in freedom of speech--even if I don't always like what is being said. Furthermore I don't believe that my God cares if some idiot calls 'him' a name. So my advice is to grow up and pretend like you're an adult.

I went into the site fueled primarily by my lifetime of interest in the natural environment; as well as my interest from volunteering as a park ranger in the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. However, by the time I was done, my interest in technology, from over 10 years as an IT professional, was thoroughly peaked! Definitely off the "beaten path," in a spruce bog in Northern Minnesota, this site boasts an incredible array of scientific equipment that is supported by an amazing technological infrastructure! There are control sites and some of the chambers have added heat, carbon dioxide, or both. A lot of equipment and experimental testing goes on 24/7, 365 days per year. These guys know their stuff. The 10 chambers are connected ...

Measles Outbreak?

The people dying from measles are unvaccinated. This is preventable. Those who are pushing misinformation are participating in the cause of these deaths.
