regarding above ... “The dark color of trees means that they absorb more of the sun’s energy and raise the planet’s surface temperature.”

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Definitely a good example of ‘Different Strokes for Different folks’..

Most people would find it rather unpleasant to walk around with a full load in their skivvies (well THAT full load).

Some people swear that the last warm and fuzzy feeling is when you COMPLETELY do “IT” in your pants.

Apparently, Marisol followed both examples or followed neither BUT she definitely had a place for the pantload she was totin’ around...

If only these brilliant minds were put to ‘good use’.

Angry single men stage anti-Christmas rally in Tokyo

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3374483/posts

TOKYO (AFP) - Anti-Christmas protesters calling themselves ‘Losers with Women’ marched through Tokyo’s streets Saturday, bashing the upcoming holiday as a capitalist ploy that also discriminates against singletons. The group of about 20 — part of the Communist-inspired group that routinely protests Western holidays — marched under angry banners that read ‘Smash Christmas!’ in Tokyo’s Shibuya district, where couples and families strolled for holiday shopping. The scrooges — mostly single men — said they were against capitalism and were opposed to the commercialisation of Christmas. ‘In this world, money is extracted from people in love, and happy people support capitalism,’...

[Just 20? Tokyo is the place to celebrate Christmas, not here.]

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3375863/posts

A father took a gun into hospital to stop doctors taking his son off life support - and during the three-hour stand-off the young man squeezed his hand. The sign that he wasn’t brain dead meant he was kept alive - and he is now recovering and doing well. His father, 59-year-old George Pickering II, was charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after marching into Tomball Regional Medical Center in Texas with a gun...

Last week, a surveillance camera at an Alabama family’s home captured burglars stealing Christmas presents and two televisions. On Sunday, the Wyatt family was being interviewed by a local news station about the robbery when they recognized the car used in the crime from the surveillance video.

Indonesia: Hundreds cheer as unmarried pair are flogged for being ‘too close’

Hundreds of people gathered to cheer as a woman was publicly caned in Indonesia for having affectionate contact with a man who was not her husband. University student Nur Elita was rushed to hospital after receiving five lashes in front of a jubilant crowd. The 20-year-old was forced to kneel as a masked man whipped her repeatedly outside the Baiturrahim Mosque in Aceh, Indonesia’s only province to enact Sharia law. Her companion, 23-year-old Wahyudi Saputra was also caned. Under Sharia law, unmarried men and women are not allowed to get too close to each other due to the ‘khalwat’ offence....
