I’ve been hearing that there has been a successful cloning of pit bull dogs in Korea. I’ve read a few articles about it on Time.com, and heard about it on television. I have to say I’m a little bit confused about that. I can understand that people love their pets, and would like to replace them when they die with “identical” stand-ins, but clones don’t have the same memories, and perhaps won’t have the same personalities. That results from their “raising” and their life experiences (although SOME personality traits are genetic.) And dog breeds don’t differ that much in appearance, if you loved your dog a lot, when it dies it would make sense to buy another one of the same breed, but to go to the expense of cloning it seems a little bit much.
My hubby and I have been thinking about buying a new car. We think we want to buy another Subaru, we love the all wheel drive all of the time. They are safe and reliable cars. Before we commit to a particular sale with a particular car dealer though, we decided to start shopping for some Car Loans. The completeloansource.com website caught our attention. They offer a wide variety of loans, from Pay Day Loans, debt consolidation, personal loans, and car loans. They offer loan services regardless of whether the customer has good credit or bad credit. They are a nationwide service and have a fast and free online application and approval process.
I was reading on the Yahoo news that a settlement was reached in a legal case of the state of California vs four major snack food companies, H.J. Heinz Co., Frito-Lay, Kettle Foods Inc., and Lance Inc. The suit was brought forth in 2005, and it was regarding the fact that these companies had unacceptable levels of carcinogens in their potato chips, and had failed to indicate that fact on their product labels.
The state also sued McDonald’s Corp.; Wendy’s International Inc.; Burger King Corp.; KFC, and Procter & Gamble Co for essentailly the same situation with their french fries.
These companies were fined a lot of money and they agreed to either lower the levels of carcinogens or change their labels, so the consumers are aware of the carcinogens. How do you change the labels on french fries?
Why are these carcinogens being allowed in our food in the first place?
In today’s worsening economy, more people are considering applying for a Personal Loan to get them through what they are hoping will be a short term. There are just about as many reasons for applying for a personal loan as there are people! There is a company called Personal Loans Mania that offers quick and easy online personal loan applications. They lend money nationwide, and offer loans to almost any credit situation. Their website advertises approvals for their loans take only three minutes, that there are no credit checks required and the personal loans can be used for any purpose.
Well, if I was an aerodynamics engineer, maybe I wouldn’t be amazed. But I’m not, so I’m amazed. I’m referring to the Qantas flight last Friday where an explosion tore a hole in the side of the airplane in flight and the plane was able to make a safe landing, with no fatalities. Early investigations show no signs of a bomb, and theories are that it might have been a cylinder of oxygen that is kept on board for emergency use. Kind of ironic because when the explosion happened, the oxygen masks dropped down for emergency use!
