<p>The Baby Boom Generation will never be mistaken for the Greatest Generation that survived the Great Depression and defeated evil in a World War that killed 72 million people. I hate to tell you Boomers, but putting a yellow ribbon on the back of your $50,000 SUV is not sacrifice.</p>

<p>"...the second rule of moral psychology is that morality is not just about how we treat each other (as most liberals think); it is also about binding groups together, supporting essential institutions, and living in a sanctified and noble way. When Republicans say that Democrats "just don't get it," this is the "it" to which they refer."</p>

<p><a href="http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/08/080825175005.htm">Monkeys Enjoy Giving To Others, Study Finds</a></p>
<p>Researchers at the Yerkes National Primate Research Center, Emory University, have shown capuchin monkeys, just like humans, find giving to be a satisfying experience. This finding comes on the coattails of a recent imaging study in humans that documented activity in reward centers of the brain after humans gave to charity.</p>

<p><a href="http://shazzie.com/raw/articles/raw_vegan_children.shtml#">Raw vegan children -- By Shazzie</a></p>
<p>"I can keep quiet about this no longer. There has been the most huge cover up in the raw food movement spanning years which has damaged children the world over. Every person who has spoken out about this in the past has been publicly slammed by members of the raw food community and their research and experience has been dismissed. These are often people who are highly experienced in raw food nutrition, yet these raw foodists continually claim that those people must be doing something wrong. It couldn't possibly be the food because we've been told the raw vegan diet is perfect for everyone."</p>
