STUDY SAYS INDIAN COKE AND PEPSI CONTAIN PESTICIDES The Times of India: "In findings, hotly contested by global giants Coke and Pepsi, the Centre for Science and Environment picked up three bottles each of 12 soft drink brands from Delhi and found they contained a ''deadly pesticide cocktail'' which exceeded European norms by around 11 to 70 times. But these do not breach Indian laws which, said the CSE on Tuesday, are weak or non-existent." More on Kuro5hin. 12:09:01 PM

SCHWARZENEGGER AND WALDHEIM Arnold calls him Kurt. In fact, he's more of a Kurtz. The problem with those republicans is they don't think. Arnold apparently feels comfortable among terminators. The Guardian: "He is the son of a Nazi police chief who once declared his love for the noted UN secretary general and war criminal, Kurt Waldheim, and who still talks as if he has just arrived on Austrian Airlines. His rise to fame owes more to steroids than charm, and he is best known for impersonating a robot. Meanwhile, his crude remarks about women have not helped him counter persistent allegations of groping." Yesterday I heard Schwarzenegger on tv complain about the huge Californian budget deficit. Has he ever noticed the gigantic budget deficit of the Republican administration now in power in the US? As I said, no brains. 11:48:29 AM
