Isn't it odd that ADM is also the initials for Archer Daniels Midland? The Archer Daniels Midland Corporation (ADM) has been the most prominent recipient of corporate welfare in recent U.S. history. ADM and its chairman Dwayne Andreas have lavishly fertilized both political parties with millions of dollars in handouts and in return have reaped billion-dollar windfalls from taxpayers and consumers. Thanks to federal protection of the domestic sugar industry, ethanol subsidies, subsidized grain exports, and various other programs, ADM has cost the American economy billions of dollars since 1980 and has indirectly cost Americans tens of billions of dollars in higher prices and higher taxes over that same period. ADM is very badddd!!!!! :sick:

I thought ADM was an old Native American word that meant "Oh, here we go getting ripped off once again." Isn't it odd that ADM is also the initials for Archer Daniels Midland?

If you had noticed, I did not imply that global warming was a function of c02 increase but rather stated that enough empirical eveidence was not in hand to base a logical conclusion.

First of all, there’s quite a bit of fluctuation. There are long periods of time when the average global temperature was as much as 9 C degrees (16 F degrees) colder than now. These were ice ages. Much of the northern part of the world was covered with thick sheets of ice, much like we see today in Greenland and Antarctica. The most recent ice age ended about 12,000 years ago. There were also times when it was warmer than today. On the whole, we are in a relatively warm period. What causes these changes in climate? There are many factors.

Hyundai XG300 error codes

by archer_bugz on Thu Jul 10 16:05:30 PDT 2008

Hi everyone, I have been a proud owner of an 2001 XG300 since the past one year and never faced a problem. however, a couple of months ago, my malfunction light came on. I took it to the dealer and got it checked, but it had gone off by then so was asked to come back when it came back on. about a month back, i started having the problem, where the engine seemed to jerk when the car was at halt but in the drive position. when the light finally came on again 15 days back, i took the car back to the dealer and he told me that there was a problem of cylinder 4 misfiring. paid a 170 bucks for a new recoil for cylinder 4. but the problem of jerking persisted and since no light was coming on, i was told to come back when the light comes on. It came on a couple of days back and took it back to my dealers, this time, the car gave the following errors P1191, P1193. with the messages Limp Home System Fault and Limp Home on Low RPM. I couldn't get a quote of what was to be replaced as the place was shutting down and have been told to come in next week. Could someone please tell me exactly, if they faced the same problem, what could the problem be, what part needs to be replaced and perhaps how much would the past cost? Thanks, Amit.

Re: Corn going for $7.25 a bushel [bpizzuti]

Unfortunately, we're never going to GET to cellulosic without specific mandates for it If Congress had allocated money to research and develop other methods of producing biofuel, that would have been good. They did just as you have said. They just paid off the Ag lobby and pacified the Greenies. Though now that corn ethanol is showing so many negative attributes the Greenies are distancing themselves from the stuff. Three environmental Views of Corn Ethanol Biofuels as currently rendered in the U.S. are doing great things for some farmers and for agricultural giants like Archer Daniels Midland and Cargill, but little for the environment. Corn requires large doses of herbicide and nitrogen fertilizer and can cause more soil erosion than any other crop. http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2007/10/biofuels/biofuels-text IS ETHANOL GREEN?....There are probably some of you out there who believe that not everything in the world can be put into chart form. On Thursday, for example, I wrote that "corn ethanol is a boondoggle," and that probably seems like an un-chartable statement. But it's not. After all, one can always chart how much of a boondoggle something is. http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/archives/individual/2007_05/011340.php It’s almost considered conventional wisdom at this point that corn ethanol probably isn’t the best biofuel out there. It may not be the primary cause of global food shortages, but corn-based ethanol has nevertheless has gotten a bad rap lately. Here’s something that won’t change that tarnished reputation: Ethanol Expansion Contributes to Increase Runoff According to Louisiana State University professor R. Eugene Turner growth in the Midwest corn-based biofuel industry may be the cause of a record-breaking “dead zone” in the Gulf of Mexico this summer. http://www.treehugger.com/files/2008/06/ethanol-worsens-deadzone.php
