Order Valium Online As I was plowing through my secret stash of Oreos today, I remembered this news from earlier in the month: Connecticut College students and a professor of psychology have found “America’s favorite cookie” is just as addictive as cocaine – at least for lab rats. And just like most humans, rats go for the middle…Continue Reading…

What Is Bjørn Lomborg Trying to Achieve?

https://drreddyfamilydoctors.com/womans-health/ In the latest issue of Cosmos magazine, I have a piece on Bjørn Lomborg, who, as I write, shot to fame in 2001 with his first book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, a broad critique of the environmental movement that infuriated many ecologists and greens. The notoriety transformed the little-known Danish statistician into a globe-trotting public intellectual. Since then,…Continue Reading…

https://www.munshinegroup.com/home-nonprofit/clients/ Earlier this week, ABC News asked: Can wind power be hazardous to your health? Some residents of a Cape Cod town have complained about headaches, nausea and other symptoms that they attribute to noise from wind turbines near their homes.

Prominent Biotech Booster: Time to Label GMOs

Order Ultram Online One of biotechnology’s most articulate allies has laid down the gauntlet: My challenge to the biotechnology industry – the whole food industry in general in fact – is very clear.

The Amira Chronicles (Elastic Bonds)

As one political scientist recently noted, a “fundamental difficulty” for counterterrorist operations in collapsed states like Somalia is the ever-shifting landscape of loyalties: Local authorities collaborate with the insurgents that they fight. Armed groups unify and then suddenly split. This is a treacherous environment for outsiders to navigate, particularly someone who poses as a humanitarian…Continue Reading…

The Amira Chronicles (Dealing with Creditors)

Oh great, the Daily Mail has cannibalized my Washington Post magazine story about Michele Ballarin, the Virginia woman who fancies herself the savior of Somalia. As I’ve hinted in earlier posts, there is much more to her than I could fit into my story (Even Mark Mazzetti’s excellent work only scratches at the surface). For example,…Continue Reading…

The Amira Chronicles (Fact and Fantasy)

Purchase Xanax Online Depending on who you talk to, Michele Ballarin, a North Virginia businesswoman, is a ruthless mercenary, a covert operative, or a grandiose but well-intentioned humanitarian. In my profile of her for this week’s Washington Post magazine, I uncovered evidence for all of these persons. She juggles these guises on a daily basis. One morning Ballarin will be on the…Continue Reading…
