Posted on September 19, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Here's the story: “Spiral Island is a name given to two floating artificial islands built by British eco-pioneer Richart “Rishi” Sowa. Sowa is a musician, artist, and carpenter. As an environmentalist, he believes in recycling and low-impact living. A book about Sowa’s journey in building the original island and his philosophies, Spiralogically Speaking, written by the German author Tanja Samed with Sowa, is due to be released in 2008. Spiral Island has been featured in a number of newspapers and TV documentaries around the world, including in Japan and South Korea, and was seen in an episode of the Ripley’s Believe It or Not! television program.” http://www.weirdpalace.com/plastic-bottle-island/ -Felipe added by: donf3lipe

Colin Powell: Illegal immigrants are what’s keeping this country’s lifeblood moving forward

Posted on September 19, 2010 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell says illegal immigrants do essential work in the U.S. and that he has firsthand knowledge of that — because they fix his house. A moderate Republican, Powell urged his party on Sunday to support immigration generally because those who come from abroad are, in his words, “what's keeping this country's lifeblood moving forward.” Powell said a path to legal status should be offered to illegal immigrants because they do work that needs to get done. At his own house, he said on NBC's “Meet the Press,” illegal immigrants are always around when he needs work done. He did not specify whether he hired them directly or they showed up with contractors. added by: Replicant
