Monica Bellucci the perfect lab partner, Senate Sets Hearings on Censure of Bush, Hay in Art

Found this photo on the web. Other then the designer label Monica’s glasses reminded me of the ones we had to wear in chemistry class. I don’t know if she would have been the perfect lab partner, but it would have been fun.

Senator Sets Hearing on Censure of Bush

The Senate Judiciary Committee has set a hearing for next Friday on the call by Senator Russell D. Feingold, Democrat of Wisconsin, to censure President Bush for his approval of a program to allow electronic eavesdropping without warrants.

Senator Arlen Specter, the Pennsylvania Republican who is chairman of the panel, said he had decided to schedule the session after Mr. Feingold, in a television interview, pressed for hearings on the censure proposal.

Some Republicans have seized on the issue to rally their supporters by arguing that the censure plan is evidence that Democrats would try to take some action against Mr. Bush should they gain control of the House or Senate in the November elections.

You’ve been warned America by the Republican party, if you vote Democratic that might get enough power to start making Bush accountable to the American people and the Constitution and nobody wants that.

It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people’s minds…” — Samuel Adams

Hay In Art

Discovering hay images in books and magazines and on the web may be compared to ornithologists being theoretically aware of thousands of avian species only in their libraries. The bird watcher’s so-called “life list” is the product of thrilling visual and auditory encounters with creatures in their environment. Having collected, by December 2005, well over 5000 hay images from secondary sources, I decided that my Hay Life List should consist only of those works I’ve seen in the original, several hundred if I count my own inconsistently artistic photographs of hayfields around the world, only a few dozen if I restrict myself to real art in real museums and galleries.

Unique site and the thumbnail was one that was especially good. The down side is that because of the way the text and images are arranged I really wasn’t positive who painted this one ( I think its by Istvan Csok). There is also quite a few photographs. If you’re on a slow connection it will take a while to load.
