...study also notes that the Hummer brand has produced an intense backlash, including one Internet site where people have posted thousands of photographs of middle fingers directed at Hummer vehicles and their drivers. "I think GM's board should kill Hummer," says Dan Becker, director of the Safe Climate Campaign at the Center for Auto Safety and a Hummer critic...
Back then the mission seemed clear-cut and justified: to rid Afghanistan of a cruel, women-hating regime whose control over the country created a safe haven for a terrorist group that threatened the West. Even when they squabbled with Washington over Iraq, countries such as France and Germany stayed firm on Afghanistan. But public support has fallen over the years, and especially in the past 12 months. An August poll by French daily Le Figaro found that just 36% backed France's military's presence in Afghanistan. In July, a Forsa poll for German magazine Stern found that...
Battle fatigue - or its equivalent among those safe at home - is inevitable, especially after eight years fighting the same war. Things might be different if people had a sense that Afghanistan was making progress. Instead, this summer saw an escalation in violence and a steady stream of fatalities.

After an hour, I asked a question about whether putting off the vaccine for hepatitis B until puberty was completely safe, or if a child could get the disease from being bitten by another kid.

Which is multiple sclerosis. I respond to what I see." She added that she doesn't worry about improbable scenarios like infected children biting each other, saying simply...
...know how much aluminum is safe in a newborn's bloodstream, and I'm sure even a modestly educated opponent of vaccination could throttle me in a debate. What I do know is that I'm pretty confident in the way I get my knowledge. Even in the age of Google and Wikipedia, we still receive almost all of our information through our peers. I believe in evolution not because I've read Darwin but because everyone I know thinks it's true. When presented with doubts, I don't search for detailed information from my side. I go with...
