    International Rhino Foundation

    My wife is from South Africa and some of her family there recently tuned us in to this. The rise of rhino poaching in South Africa is staggering. Poachers are brutally butchering rhinos simply for their horns. Apparently the black market for the horns has taken off in Asia where many people believe (falsely) that the horns have medicinal powers. Rhinos are on the fast track to extinction. At the rate they are being killed, they'll be gone soon. Tragic.

    Just donated to Canadian Crohns and Colitis foundation. My brother in law has crohns and has some pretty major surgury to fight off the disease. He is healthy now and that is what is important!

    Hey Everybody,

    Thanks for all the kindness, the bumps, and the donations so far. Sorry for the lack of correspondence, as I've hit a busy patch recently.

    As always, I am truly excited and inspired by the generosity shown, especially considering the times. After one week, it would appear that over $700 has been spread around to a large assortment of causes. Thank you so much for that; it's been a real bright spot.

    Over 3 weeks left... thanks for everything that you've done thus far... looking forward to seeing where the vinyl will be heading... hopefully another update soon...

    $700 is the minimum IF the donation was $10. I am willing to bet that some of us have given more than that.

    The mission of the Ohio Environmental Council is to secure healthy air, land, and water for all who call Ohio home.
    We are Ohio's leading advocate for fresh air, clean water, and sustainable land use. The OEC has a widely respected 40-year history of innovation, pragmatism, and success.
    Using legislative initiatives, legal action, scientific principles, and statewide partnerships, we secure a healthier environment for Ohio's families and communities.

    What is Fracking?

    Relatively new drilling technology, high-volume horizontal hydraulic fracturing, now makes it possible to reach natural gas reserves that underlie much of the state of Ohio.
    Commonly referred to as "horizontal hydrofracking" or just "fracking," deep-shale natural gas drilling uses high-pressure injection of water, sand, and chemicals to release the trapped gas.

    The environmental and health impacts from high-volume, horizontal hydraulic fracturing in other states are shocking and well documented, with a significant number of spills, blowouts, leaking wells, and other accidents and releases of contaminants.
