<br />
This is going down in the history books as the great <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> Oil Spill of 2010.<br />
Some say blame President Obama, but I say the total blame goes to <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span>.<br />
Boycott <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> (British Petroleum) products is the call to all consumers as the commercial ads from <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> rise.<br />
<br />
<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> just gave a large amount to funds to the feds in order to help cleanup the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.<br />
<br />
Eleven <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> workers lost their lives when the platform caught on fire and exploded on April 20, 2010.<br />
<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP's</span> fault for selecting risky methods and cutting costs to save time.<br />
My sympathy goes out to the families and friends of those 11 people. <span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> is going to pat big time.<br />
<br />
As of June 10th, over 3.2 million gallons or 6.4 million liters have flowed into the Gulf of Mexico.<br />
<br />
June 21st, scientists revise their original estimate to 4.2 million gallons or 15.9 million liters a day.<br />
<br />
July 6th $130 million has been paid out to businesses and employees.<br />
<br />
<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> sets up a $20 Billion escrow fund to deal with the oil spill crisis.<br />
<br />
<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> hopes to have a new cap in place by July 15th.<br />
<br />
<span class="goog-spellcheck-word">BP</span> says they have converted a tanker to skim up the surface oil. How long will this take?<br />
10 to 100 years if we're lucky. The Gulf of Mexico will never be the same again.<br />
<br />
All the wildlife that have been effected because of the negligence of a greedy oil company.<br />
<br />
Hydrocarbons rising from all this oil muck, as well as aromatic compounds, such as benzene, toluene, and xylene, all known carcinogens.<br />

Who may I ask could do a remake of this movie and have it be a hit? Nobody!<br />
<br />
Remakes are OK to reincarnate an old dusty movie, but this movie hasn't even hit the archives yet.<br />
What's really hot are doing sequels to a hot movie, or did everyone forget this little known fact.<br />
<br />
I think that not only will this remake of the movie flop, it probably won't even come out after the producers<br />
start looking at the polls from the many fans out there.<br />
<br />
It's a big mistake to take a movie that's not that old and do a remake. The original movie is still making money.<div class="blogger-post-footer">sponsored by http://work-at-home-on-internet.com/blog and http://www.FindSomeoneNow.net</div>HRCWebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11601114649710741235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6128385231917883585.post-35384676316716406932010-06-26T17:31:00.000-04:002010-06-27T09:43:34.472-04:00Michael Jackson's Net WorthMicheal Jackson was only 50 when he died.

Scientists blame their dissappearance on black rats.<br />
<br />
Two dead inscts were found but results finally came from constant expeditions and the insects were resently found in 2003 alive on Ball's Pyramid by climbers at night.<br />
<br />
Even though at least 30 of the insects were found they still remain on the critically endangered species list.<br />
<br />
As of 2008 there were 450 of the Lord Howe Island Stick Insects and slowly coming off of the endangered species list.<div class="blogger-post-footer">sponsored by http://work-at-home-on-internet.com/blog and http://www.FindSomeoneNow.net</div>HRCWebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11601114649710741235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6128385231917883585.post-66948104100842403802010-06-26T14:31:00.001-04:002010-06-27T10:07:56.274-04:00Pinta Island Tortoise<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Pinta</span> Island also known as <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Adingdon</span> Island is and Island located in Ecuador.<br />
