A famous use of tax payers money: The 3 million dollar shrimp project was cut due to the 1 billion dollar minnow project:: Here is a link to the now famous Mantis Shrimp: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=shrimp+treadmill&ei=UTF-8&fr=yff40c I bet the Mantis Shrimp could mop the floor with the imported Minnow.

Related - Friend On Meteorite List From: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Average gasoline prices in Arizona ($2.57/gal) are about 13% lower than California ($2.97). How does that 13% difference turn into an almost 100% (claimed) increase in your fill-up? California has more than 3 times the lane-miles of Arizona and it's drivers account for 11% of ALL of the miles driven in the entire country (more than 5 times Arizona drivers, and we have a lower fatality rate because no one from Arizona can drive worth a damn), so yes, our roads do get used and abused and could use some love. Believe it or not, road maintenance is what the fuel tax is used for, we just have a lot more roads that need maintaining. And "most" produce comes from California. And by most we're talking a huge majority. Some comes from Mexico, some from other places, too, but California is our nation's produce isle. Michael is so. Cal.

It's not just California! It's the U S Department of Agriculture. I recently ordered some rare conifer seeds from Ireland, to try here in New Mexico, only to receive an empty box with a confiscation letter inside saying how I was attempting to break the law.. The second batch made it through. Monkey Tail Pines The ag dept might snag anything from Thailand. Might try cuttings from Hawaii.

The biggest export coming from California these days is the SMOG that overtakes neighboring states.I can usually see Needles, California and Bull Head, Arizona on a clear day but when the wind is coming from the west, this rotten egg smelling pollution invades our area. We have a joke about it. Don't hang your head out your car window when driving through this filthy pollution; It is so thick that you are most likely to chip a tooth on it.

I've been trying to get hold of a small portion of Broken Hill but it can only be sold within Australia. Things were great before, but not now. Can I have a piece sent to my mum and have her package it up and send it out of Australia? Just curious. I think not. I would then cause problems for my mother. But then again with Victoria, it's not a problem, all the states in Australia have different rules. Damn, I could turn around and declare my property here in Southern California as Australian property.. an embassy so I can call diplomatic immunity. But I think the bottom line is, you're crossing the line and asking for some idiot to cause you trouble. Just my thoughts.

G'Day All I think the bottom line is, it's illegal. I have watched introduced plant, animal, etc.. into Australia. Even though your request seems genuine, the law is the law. As for other comments on California, I think every state has a problem in some way or another. As for here, gas prices are high, taxes are high, freeways are congested and yes Michael F. it's a free for all on the freeways. What I'd like to see is the bullshit about dredging for gold in California shoved up some political hierarchy's arse. Dredging is good for the environment, the fish love it. You stir up all that good food. But try to tell that to the politicians. That's all I've got to say on this post.

Well ... kinda true for Florida ... if you are driving a cargo van, you are REQUIRED to stop. I have a warning ticket to prove it! Chased me down, lights flashing! ... and the officer had a photograph of the sign that states such about cargo vans. Told him that I gone in and out of the state a LOT of times and had never stopped nor been stopped (in a VERY nice way!) ... his response? "It's a slow day for us!" At least he was honest and had a sense of humor ... thus a warning ticket!

[meteorite-list] Asteroid 2014 UR116, A 400-meter Sized Near-Earth Asteroid, Represents No Threat to the Earth
http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news187.html Asteroid 2014 UR116, A 400-meter Sized Near-Earth Asteroid, Represents No Threat to the Earth NASA/JPL Near-Earth Object Program Office December 8, 2014 Some recent press reports have suggested that an asteroid designated 2014 UR116, found on October 27, 2014, at the MASTER-II observatory in Kislovodsk, Russia, represents an impact threat to the Earth. While this approximately 400-meter sized asteroid has a three year orbital period around the sun and returns to the Earth's neighborhood periodically, it does not represent a threat because it's orbital path does not pass sufficiently close to the Earth's orbit. Furthermore, Tim Spahr, Director of the Minor Planet Center in Cambridge Massachusetts, has also re-computed this object's orbit after noticing that it was the same as an object observed six years ago. Using both sets of observations, the future motion of this asteroid was carried further forward in time using the automatic computations made by the Sentry system at NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. These computations rule out this object as an impact threat to Earth (or any other planet) for at least the next 150 years. Any statements about risk for impact of discovered asteroids and comets should be verified by scientists and the media by accessing NASA' Near Earth Object (NEO) Program web site at http://neo.jpl.nasa.gov/risk/ or the European equivalent, the NEO Dynamic Site at http://newton.dm.unipi.it/neodys/index.php?pc=4.1 . __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

There are agricultural inspection stations on I-10 and I-75 entering Florida, but there are no such stations on the many alternate routes. The inspection stations along the interstate are for commercial traffic and private drivers are not required to stop. You can drive unchecked across the border with unicorn horns and moonshine in the trunk and nobody will notice or look twice. Never been to Arizona or California.

Average gasoline prices in Arizona ($2.57/gal) are about 13% lower than California ($2.97). How does that 13% difference turn into an almost 100% (claimed) increase in your fill-up? California has more than 3 times the lane-miles of Arizona and it's drivers account for 11% of ALL of the miles driven in the entire country (more than 5 times Arizona drivers, and we have a lower fatality rate because no one from Arizona can drive worth a damn), so yes, our roads do get used and abused and could use some love. Believe it or not, road maintenance is what the fuel tax is used for, we just have a lot more roads that need maintaining. And "most" produce comes from California.

I do stay out of California unless managing one of my over-taxed investment properties.. It cost nearly twice as much to fill up my gas tank there as it does in Arizona. They were the first state to have a major city go bankrupt demonstrating their ability to manage taxpayer funds. I do not know what they do with the nations highest fuel tax. It sure isn't put into the roads. I will not drive at night in parts of California since they can't even afford to paint the lanes or put up reflectors. I once went airborne at night while pulling my enclosed car hauler trailer since California was too cheap to mark a raised railroad crossing. I have seen better roads in third-world countries. As far as produce goes, most of it now comes from Mexico.

[meteorite-list] NASA's Curiosity Rover Finds Clues to How Water Helped Shape Martian Landscape
December 8, 2014 NASA's Curiosity Rover Finds Clues to How Water Helped Shape Martian Landscape Observations by NASA's Curiosity Rover indicate Mars' Mount Sharp was built by sediments deposited in a large lake bed over tens of millions of years. This interpretation of Curiosity's finds in Gale Crater suggests ancient Mars maintained a climate that could have produced long-lasting lakes at many locations on the Red Planet. "If our hypothesis for Mount Sharp holds up, it challenges the notion that warm and wet conditions were transient, local, or only underground on Mars," said Ashwin Vasavada, Curiosity deputy project scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena. "A more radical explanation is that Mars' ancient, thicker atmosphere raised temperatures above freezing globally, but so far we don't know how the atmosphere did that." Why this layered mountain sits in a crater has been a challenging question for researchers. Mount Sharp stands about 3 miles (5 kilometers) tall, its lower flanks exposing hundreds of rock layers. The rock layers - alternating between lake, river and wind deposits -- bear witness to the repeated filling and evaporation of a Martian lake much larger and longer-lasting than any previously examined close-up. "We are making headway in solving the mystery of Mount Sharp," said Curiosity Project Scientist John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, California. "Where there's now a mountain, there may have once been a series of lakes." Curiosity currently is investigating the lowest sedimentary layers of Mount Sharp, a section of rock 500 feet (150 meters) high dubbed the Murray formation. Rivers carried sand and silt to the lake, depositing the sediments at the mouth of the river to form deltas similar to those found at river mouths on Earth. This cycle occurred over and over again. "The great thing about a lake that occurs repeatedly, over and over, is that each time it comes back it is another experiment to tell you how the environment works," Grotzinger said. "As Curiosity climbs higher on Mount Sharp, we will have a series of experiments to show patterns in how the atmosphere and the water and the sediments interact. We may see how the chemistry changed in the lakes over time. This is a hypothesis supported by what we have observed so far, providing a framework for testing in the coming year." After the crater filled to a height of at least a few hundred yards and the sediments hardened into rock, the accumulated layers of sediment were sculpted over time into a mountainous shape by wind erosion that carved away the material between the crater perimeter and what is now the edge of the mountain. On the 5-mile (8-kilometer) journey from Curiosity's 2012 landing site to its current work site at the base of Mount Sharp, the rover uncovered clues about the changing shape of the crater floor during the era of lakes. "We found sedimentary rocks suggestive of small, ancient deltas stacked on top of one another," said Curiosity science team member Sanjeev Gupta of Imperial College in London. "Curiosity crossed a boundary from an environment dominated by rivers to an environment dominated by lakes." Despite earlier evidence from several Mars missions that pointed to wet environments on ancient Mars, modeling of the ancient climate has yet to identify the conditions that could have produced long periods warm enough for stable water on the surface. NASA's Mars Science Laboratory Project uses Curiosity to assess ancient, potentially habitable environments and the significant changes the Martian environment has experienced over millions of years. This project is one element of NASA's ongoing Mars research and preparation for a human mission to the planet in the 2030s. "Knowledge we're gaining about Mars' environmental evolution by deciphering how Mount Sharp formed will also help guide plans for future missions to seek signs of Martian life," said Michael Meyer, lead scientist for NASA's Mars Exploration Program at the agency's headquarters in Washington. JPL, managed by the California Institute of Technology, built the rover and manages the project for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington.

I have taken to growing cuttings of Plumeria - the Tropical plant that produces the flowers used in Hawaii for Leis. There are some very exciting hybrids being grown in Thailand. However, though all of the other 49 states allow Importation, CA refuses - even though all cuttings have been Submerged in malathion for 30 minutes, have a governmental Declaration of same and no creature or fungus or the like could Ever survive even a 30 second dunk in the stuff.
