A recent study was done by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory that asserts Americans are using less energy in 2009 than in 2008. The main attributing factor: The Recession.
Energy use tends to follow the level of economic activity, and that level declined last year. At the same time, higher efficiency appliances and vehicles reduced energy use even further. As a result, people and businesses are using less energy in general.

How many people can say they have driven coast to coast, let alone how many dogs? Molsie has that claim to fame and the pictures to back it up. Pretty good considering he would get violently car sick as a puppy. Pooh and barf are very hard to get out of the little leather perforation details of car seats so it is with great relief that I can say without a doubt it is possible to clean and fumigate! That being said it would have been very sad if he didn’t get use to driving because every weekend we would take the hour and twenty minute drive to go to his favorite place, our country house.

Whoops: There’s a fire on an oil rig in the Gulf. Like the Yogi Berra malapropism, it’s déjà vu all over again.
From NOLA:
The Coast Guard is responding to a report of a rig explosion and fire “and people in the water” in the Gulf of Mexico south of Vermilion Bay, authorities said.

I love my magazines. I hate to part with them. My Time magazine subscription, along with Wired and Entertainment Weekly, I read once and then use them for collage or I donate them to our recycling center’s reuse sidewalk. Others however, such as, Vegetarian Times, Martha Stewart Living, Family Fun, or Make Magazine, I simply can never part with. A featured recipe that didn’t appeal to me then will appeal to me now, or a craft project that doesn’t appeal to me now will perhaps appeal to me later. I regularly flip through back issues of my favorites as a pleasurable source of inspiration.

In the midst of your busy world – getting the kids to school, keeping the house organized, making sure your job and finances are secure – wouldn’t you like to take a Mediterranean vacation? Well, financially speaking most of us probably could not afford a luxury like that. Maybe we could look at this from a different viewpoint. How about a Mediterranean vacation for your body? Medical researchers have long been intrigued by the continuing good health and longevity of people living in the Mediterranean coastal region. These people exude such continuing good health and durability that the medical and nutritional communities were very intrigued. They wondered just why there could be such a disparity health wise between those living in that region and those living in other parts of the world.
