I have a question for everybody/anybody: my friend that I cat-sit for v occasionally needs a hip replacement job, and has asked me to research what works best, what lasts longest, and everything else about hip prosthese.  Where do I start?  Has anyone had any experience with this problem?

What I've come up so far is the lawsuit settlement by Johnson & Johnson for their faulty metal-on-metal device. Metal-on-metal doesn't last long...and constantly sheds teeny-tiny fragments into the body. (But all the materials used in these devices does that.)

I've also sent an e-mail to a friend who has had to have the same hip operated on 3 times because of various screw-ups.  I haven't told Sue about that.

Anyroad, any information at all would be greatly appreciated.  I just need to know where to start...a lot of the links that come up on Google and other search engines are paid ads, and I'm trying to avoid those.

Oh, yes.  Our "Pale Blue Dot" in space.  Her biggest problem for the past 2,000 years or so is that the two most powerful organizations have convinced (without any evidence at all) billions and billions of people that there's a better home waiting for them...after they die.  So they leave this one filled with trash.

"Humanity; The most intelligent species on the planet, capable of anything, but is governed by its aggression and youth. A species fast in developing, but slow in maturing.

Once a species that cared about its home, its provider, let its ego dominate its decision. A period of ignorance and neglect has had profound effects across the world. Effect which can be reversed, if nature is given the time to repair the damage.

Remember … We only have one home.”

On Daylight Saving Time: I agree -- let's stop messing with the clocks and eliminate an annual cause of increased car accidents in the spring. (Energy savings are questionable, too, especially in the southern U.S. where increased A/C use more than offsets reduced evening lighting use.)

On a facetious note, I like the DST proposal someone mentioned on Car Talk some years ago:

Every afternoon at 2:00 pm, we'd move the clocks forward to 3:00 pm. We'd skip an entire useless hour at the office where nothing gets accomplished, except perhaps for meetings, but that's being redundant. And we'd get to enjoy an extra hour of daylight in the evening.

Every night/morning at 3:00 am, we'd move the clocks back to 2:00 am. With modern electronics that's easily automated. So we'd get an extra hour of sleep.

It's a win-win-win situation!

I hate DST.  I have this internal clock that doesn't switch.  I get up grumpy every morning until it changes back in November.  And they keep extending the hours.  Leave it one way or the other preferably the traditional way.

sk8eycat, I signed the petition and fervently hope 1,000,000 sign on. Let the people decide.

Steph, that cat looks like a menace to human and beast. What face to be greeted with each morning! I think I would go back to bed and pull the covers over my head. I would also invite that poor dog in to comfort me. The dog's words fit perfectly! Thanks for the laugh.

Loren, as usual, you hit the nail where it should be hit in the poster "In god you trust".
