Whomever invented this kid repellent:
A wall-mounted gadget designed to drive away loiterers with a shrill, piercing noise audible only to teens and young adults is infuriating civil liberties groups and tormenting young people after being introduced into the United States. . .The device is sold by Kids Be Gone.The high-frequency sound has been likened to fingernails dragged across a chalkboard or a pesky mosquito buzzing in your ear. It can be heard by most people in their teens and early 20s who still have sensitive hair cells in their inner ears.

That'll teach Chicago to lock up gang leaders:
Nine people were killed in 36 shootings over the weekend in Chicago, reflecting what some community leaders say is a deadly breakdown in discipline among gang members after a crackdown over the past few years put many of their leaders behind bars.Perhaps if they let the gang leaders out of jail, they could instill enough discipline in gang members to obey Chicago's gun ban.

I've long thought that the Global Warming movement is on the way out. It is only a matter of time before people are sick of hearing about how everything causes global warming.
I just want to go on record as saying that the latest Green Marketing push will only help accelerate the demise of the environmental movement. What is even more deliciously ironic is that much of the green marketing is just that, marketing. There is no environmental benefit at all. It will probably cause more environmental damage when all that green crap gets tossed in the trash.
