I usually get in big trouble every year as I rail against cutting down live trees for Christmas. However, if you did, and have a live tree, you’ll want to make sure it makes it into the compost. One way to do that is to get take it to the Lions Club tree chipping location near you.
Support the Lions Clubs by bringing your live, cut tree to the annual Christmas tree chipping event. Donations of cash and non-perishable food items will be distributed to local charities.

Ford Fusion will be the 2nd most fuel-efficient midsize sedan in 2009. http://bit.ly/uaMP… to little to late?
witnessed two snow plows in heehaw mode. blocking two lanes of traffic, spewing side of the road snow on the relatively clean road. bizarre.
loving wii fit. doing headers + avoiding stuffed pandas and soccer shoes. wicked fun for a workout.

@graphicdav – can’t say I agree with you, bit of a cop out to blame the sun. check out de smog blog – lots of info – http://bit.ly/dFBr
@graphicdav ideally I was looking for web links + info on how the cold spell is part of climate change (not vice versa as your links show)
