Green Party leaders today warned that western military intervention, now unfolding with air strikes against Libyan leader Muammar Gadhafi’s forces allegedly to create a no-fly zone, could escalate into a new US/NATO war on a Muslim nation rather than the stated goal of humanitarian protection for Libyan civilians and aid for rebels. “Libyan rebel leaders […]

packaging solutions (FREE CHOCOLATE) (via Lagusta’s Luscious!)

Posted on March 21, 2011 by iwilder

Chocolates are a great thing to sell if you’re an out-of-control OCD freak. They really lend themselves to that sensibility, what with their myriad needs: meltiness, fragility, perishability, tininess.

Is the US at war with Libya already?

Posted on March 20, 2011 by kwilder

Kimberly writes: Events are unfolding on the world stage so fast I can’t keep up. I thought with the Egyptian situation, we were on our way to peacefully toppling tyrants. It is so disheartening that in the wake of a fairly peaceful victory in Egypt, the US has accepted the violence in Libya, and jumped […]
