Shark Fin Ban

Within only 15 years, shark populations have plummeted in the Gulf of Mexico and Mediterranean Sea by approximately 90% and by 75% in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean according to recent research by the United Nations Environmental Program.













Nearly 73 million sharks are killed every year to supply Chinese consumers with their prized delicacy; soup.

Regardless, of whether or not shark-fin soup is considered a cultural tradition, world populations of ocean life were here first. They are an animal to be revered and to rationalize the careless slaughter of this species needs to be stopped.

We are a disgusting, parasitic race.

Welcome to Dystopia: Japan's Nuclear Nightmare

With thousands still unaccounted for and approximately ten thousand feared dead by officials, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said a partial meltdown at the Fukushiman Dai-ichi nuclear complex is under way. This follows suit after an 8.9 magnitude earthquake hit the northern coast of Japan, now leading to widespread tsunami warnings.

















Nuclear core meltdown chain of events (the first four events have already occurred):

1. Failure of graphite control rods to dampen chain reaction of nuclear pile.

2. Core coolant failure as backup systems fail.

3. Reactor continues to create heat.

4. Emergency venting valve systems unable to release pressure build-up in containment vessel fast enough.

5. Uranium fuel melts metal containment housing as core temperatures soar past 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit.

6. Deadly radiation pours into reactor vessel.

7. Radiation then breaches the reactor vessel.

8. Finally, killing radiation escapes into the the surrounding environment and atmosphere and is swept towards U.S. West Coast.

Alien Life Form

"Dr. Hoover has discovered evidence of microfossils similar to Cyanobacteria, in freshly fractured slices of the interior surfaces of the Alais, Ivuna, and Orgueil CI1 carbonaceous meteorites."

However:

“[The Journal of Cosmology] isn’t a real science journal at all,” says PZ Meyers in Science Blogs, “but is the ginned-up website of a small group of crank academics obsessed with the idea of Hoyle and Wickramasinghe that life originated in outer space and simply rained down on Earth.”
