Don't do it Daryl...So the 'pillow faces' continue to pop up everywhere, joining Madonna and Kylie. Those rounded rosy little chipmunk cheeks aint natural, they are the result of the latest trend for non invasive cosmetic surgery and fat implants. Given the age old choice of 'your face or your arse', these greedy celebrities want both. They want to keep their size zero ass and the plumped up faces of youth, with their new, youthful glow seeming to suggest they may have had fat implants in their cheeks, causing t Continue reading

Somebody Famous Who WAS in AppalachiaFiled under: Environment , Woman Up Most of the attention on the Appalachian Trail recently has focused on the man who was famously not there -- South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford. But actress Daryl Hannah, NASA climate scientist James Hansen, and former Rep. Ken Hechler (D-W.Va.) would like you to know that they actually were in the Appalachian Mountains -- and they have the arrest records to prove it.

WSJ’s Strassel: ‘Wherever Jim Hansen is right now…perhaps he’ll find time to mention the plight of Alan Carlin. Though don’t count on it.’No cap & trade! The Wall Street Journal’s Kimberley Strassel tells the now familiar tale of “suppressed” EPA employee, Alan Carlin , and thinks that James Hansen ought to be defending Carlin. She’s got a point. Wherever Jim Hansen is right now — whatever speech the “censored” NASA scientist is giving — perhaps he’ll find time to mention the plight of Alan Carlin. Though don’t count on it. Mr. Hansen, as everyone in this solar system knows, is the director of NASA’s Goddard Instit Continue reading

Top Clicked Keywords: On Virtual Makeovers & The TransformersKontera’s top clicked keywords list for this month is ready for launch :) We’ve selected a few top categories that have amassed a large number of clicks to see which terms have received the most attention. “Virtual makeover” has fairly won its top place on the list this month with a high number of clicks.

Well, have you ever heard of MTR? Don't feel bad, my friends are intelligent, well-read and informed people, but most of them had never heard of MTR (Mountain Top Removal) either. So, I went to Coal River to help bring much needed attention to this hidden, criminal (but somehow legal) form of mining. I was honored to be joining an inspiringly brave group of conc Continue reading
The Living Legacy of West Virginia Coal MiningEver since companies began extracting coal from the West Virginia hills, coal mining has been a way of life in many parts of the state. Generation after generation of miners descended into the earth in the morning and emerged again at twilight, covered with coal dust. This work fueled the American economy for many decades, but it also inflicted deep wounds on the region. Protesters have campaigned against the environmental costs of mining methods like mountaintop removal, including a recent high Continue reading
Movie Lines: Dreadful to SublimeMy friend Rob and I agree that Prince ’s line to Apollonia in Purple Rain — “That’s not Lake Minnetonka.” — is a classic, under-rated line. I think one of the worst-written and delivered lines came from Daryl Hannah in Wall Street , as she told Charlie Sheen ’s character Bud Fox: “Don’t cross Gordon, Bud. He’ll crush you.” Awful.
