Yellow Dust.  Its a bit of nasty stuff and can cause various reactions in people.  You may have seen pics of Asians wearing masks, well this stuff is why.

If you look closely at the red bricks, just above the cement square with the hold, you will notice a slight bit of lighter(yellow) colouring along the edges of two bricks..  That would be the yellow dust as it is being washed away by the rain.  And yes, that is some of the stuff you probably heard about in the news that was carrying some minute level of radiation from Japan.

This article, in the pathetic attempt to be some sort of authority, claims that an economic indicator is the sale of coke in a country.  Here’s a quote from the article and my response.

‘ In times of war and political strife in recent years, Coke sales have dipped; when stability returned, so did the soda consumption”

Are you kidding me?  Somehow a nation’s economy and happiness is based on coke sales?  talk about the dumbest thing I have read in a LONG time….geeze, let’s hope the sales of BMW’s aren’t affect by war either…..oh wait….

I didn’t even bother read the rest of the article.  I’m sure other brain-dumbing and ‘not obvious to anyone with an IQ above 4′  facts are in there as well….like how a house will _actually_ get wet during a rain shower!  My god!  Car cruise nights attendance drops too!  Shocking but true!

It’s schlock like this that affirms the statement “The Internet makes you stupid.”

Personally, I’d like to know how that site gets funded when crap like that is spewed out.
