As in all of Hawthorne’s writings when one finishes reading his stories
As in all of Hawthorne’s writings when one finishes reading his stories you come up with more questions than answers. No other writer makes you question like Hawthorne. The philosophical question of what is true perfection and can it be achieved through physical means or is it a state of the spirit is the heart of Nathaniel Hawthorne’s story The Birth-Mark.Brand Wallet
Aylmer, the main character of the story is a brilliant scientist/alchemist. He posses a belief in “man’s ultimate control over nature”, and thinks there is nothing man can’t master or achieve. His obsession with his wife’s small imperfect birth mark, which resembles a hand, begins shortly after they become married. Aylmer is fixated with his wife Georgiana’s perfection; he believes that in order for him to experience perfect love, he must have a perfect woman to love. His obsession gradually becomes Georgiana’s obsession at which point she becomes so distraught that she tells Aylmer “Remove this dreadful hand, or take my wretched life”. Aylmer sits down and tells his wife that there may be risk involved but he is confident that he shall remove the mark and his beautiful bride will be perfect in every way. He sets up comfortable surroundings for his wife described as “beautiful apartments, not unfit to be the secluded abode of a lovely woman”. After the alchemist attempts and fails numerous methods for removing the mark from his wife he develops a “perfect elixir” that will without a doubt cure her and make her completely perfect. He administers this elixir and to his great delight sees the cursed hand start to fade and disappear; only to have his wife tell him “Aylmer—dearest Aylmer—I am dying!”Brand Sunglasses

Tweety a Connoisseur of Rock-And-Roll
This particular morning Tweety was on her favorite branch enjoying the music from the radio. The song "Stairway To Heaven" came on the radio for the first time. The song starts very softly with Robert Plant singing in a very beautiful tone. I noticed Tweety was stretched as far as her little body could stretch to get her ear, as close to the speaker as possible. I watched mesmerized at how still and quiet Tweety was during the first part of the song. Normally she would be chirping along with the music. But not today - not during this song.
Suddenly Robert Plant burst out with the verse, "As we wind on down the road," accompanied by a barrage of heavy metal music; going from the soft melodious sound to harsh rock-and-roll. The contrast was startling to poor little Tweety. She fell instantaneously onto the floor of her cage. She looked stunned for a moment but started climbing back up the wood branch by her beak and feet to her favorite perch to finish listening to the song. Tweety listened in complete silence until the song concluded. If Tweety could have been a music critic she would have said, "That was the best song I have ever heard."
After this episode whenever Tweety heard Robert Plant singing she would fall silent and study every tone of his voice. Tweety never did this with any other musician or song only with Robert Plant.
She continued to chirp and dance wildly for Jimi Hendrix and the Beatles. Until the last day of her life she was a dedicated classic rock fan.
To this day when I hear, "Stairway To Heaven" I always picture the rapt attention of Tweety’s little face. And I smile

The Best Way to Wash the Curtains and Draperies
LINED DRAPERIES. Light washable draperies, even when lined, can be home laundered with a little extra trouble. Snip the linings loose on all but one side to make ironing easier.Brand Wallet
COMPLETELY COLORFAST MATERIALS can be washed with abandon and dispatch in your washing machine, in good stiff soapsuds. Hang them indoors or in the shade to dry straight on the line, for easy ironing.
DRAPERIES SHOULD BE IRONED LENGTHWISE with the thread of the material, to avoid losing length by side-wise stretching. Iron them on the wrong side, excepting glazed chintz, which will keep a better gloss if ironed on the right side.Brand Sunglasses
GLAZED CHINTZ, even if it has a permanent finish, ultimately loses some of its gloss. It can be revived somewhat with a light starch solution containing wax. Use a piece of wax about the size of a walnut for each pair of curtains. Either paraffin or candle wax will do. Stir the wax into a boiling starch solution until it is completely melted. When the mixture has cooled enough, immerse the draperies, then hang them to dry. When they are nearly dry iron them on the right side.
GLASS FIBER DRAPERIES can be washed in hot soapsuds or with a detergent, by hand or in a washer, but be sure to remove all hooks and other attachments that might snag them. Rehang them while they are still wet (but not dripping) and straighten the hems gently with your fingers. Glass fiber materials should never be scrubbed during washing, squeezed in a mangle, or twisted. They are never ironed.
SHEER COTTON WINDOW CURTAINS should be handled gently when they are washed, especially if they are old, because the threads become increasingly weak through constant weathering. If your curtains are very delicate, wash them in a nylon net bag or a muslin bag an old pillowcase will do. Curtains in good condition can go into the washing machine. Those that are old, or especially delicate, are best done by hand. You will have to be the judge.
Cleaning the curtains will not be a difficult thing after we learn the above tips. Heavy and non-washable curtains can go to the dry cleaner. If you have doubt on the color, check them out by taking small of part of the corner and squeezing it in the warm water. Wash them separately. Glazed chintz can be clean with a light starch solution containing wax. Glass fiber draperies can be washed in hot soapsuds or detergent. Don't scrub the glass fiber materials during washing.

A Brand Wallet is an essential accessory for any women on the go
A purse is an essential accessory for any women on the go; it is a place for her to carry anything she needs to keep close at hand, from makeup to her cell phone. A purse is great whether you want to head out for dinner and dancing, or whether you just want to relax and go out for a coffee and a paper on a Saturday morning. Thankfully, a modern woman has a full range of options to choose from when selecting the perfect purse to match her outfit and her mood.Brand Wallet
Finding the perfect purse for your style
When finding perfect purses among all the different styles and designs that are available, there are some important practical issues to keep in mind. A purse, after all, is not just a simple bag; it is a statement about the woman’s fashion sense and personality. There are a wide variety of different purses to choose from, each style having its own advantages and disadvantages.Brand Sunglasses
Purses can be placed into two main categories: purses that are designed for a night on the town, and purses that are designed for everyday use. The different types of materials and construction techniques distinguish these purses.
Everyday purses are constructed from materials such as leather, nylon, plastic or straw. Purses that are designed for everyday use are usually designed to be either held by their handle or slung over the woman’s shoulder. In the latter category you can find shoulder bags, doctor’s bags and hobo bags. Hobo bags are just shoulder bags, but have a short semi-circle strap. Purses that are designed to be held by the handle include shopper bags and satchels. A third category of everyday purses is the demi-handbag, which has a short strap that can either be carried or strung over a woman’s shoulder.

Designer Handbags: Why Buy When You Can Rent?
During New York fashion week, the city's extensive cool crowd has only one thing on its mind: how to blag its way into the shows. It's fine if you are Sophia Coppola or Kanye West, who have been swept into front row seats this week.
But what if you are a celebrity-bypass? Rule No 1 is to ensure you carry the accessories of the designer in question, in particular a satchel handbags But there's a problem here, too. What if you are a ticketless celebrity-bypass who can't afford $1,350 (Ł720) for one of Marc Jacobs' Swagger Quilted Totes (with knotted top handles in bark-coloured leather)?
Even in the secular world of American fashion, miracles can happen. Two website companies are offering couture accessories to the chic masses at affordable prices. In short: handbags for rent.
Instead of paying $2,300 for a Jimmy Choo embroidered leather bag you can have it (albeit for just a week) for $189.95. You hire it from a Minnesota-based internet firm, frombagstoriches.com
The company, which is in discussions with potential partners in London to set up a UK branch, supplies designer brands that include Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Chloé and Burberry. It has about 2,300 women on its books, most aged 25 to 35. They live mainly in New York and Los Angeles, though there is steady demand from Dallas and Houston in Texas. "A lot of southern women are very into top-of-the range fashion," said a founder of the business, Kara Richter.fashion handbags
The glamour and ostentatious wealth of the fashion world may sit uneasily with renting, which is why frombagstoriches has "initiated the development of an appropriate lexicon". Instead of the verb "to rent" it prefers to speak in terms of "incremental-product ownership".
In Seattle a rival web company, bagborroworsteal.com, is also encouraging the incremental ownership of top-of-the-range handbags. It does so, however, through a membership scheme. Customers pay a set fee each month and can then borrow up to three bags at any time from within the various price ranges.
Prices rise from $15 a month for brands such as Coach and DKNY to $175 for Chloé, Prada and Gucci.
"Why should celebrities, fashion editors and socialites be the only ones allowed to borrow fashion accessories?" the company's mission statement proclaims. "Why not give everyone access to the perfect accoutrement for every occasion?"

Ugg boots with other two fashion boots
ugg boots sale with other two fashion boots
It does not seem possible to be comfortable and stylish at the same time, and yet that is what UGG Boots has accomplished with its line of unique footwear. Since 1978, when Uggs was founded by Brian Smith, a surfer from Australia, the company has provided boots that offer both style and comfort. Smith gets the credit for introducing UGG Boots to the surfer community in California and from there the popularity spread.
It is important to remember that sheep are tough creatures and that's what the boots are made of, so care of UGG Australia boots is minimal. Dust a few tablespoons in the UGG boots overnight, shake out in the morning, and your boots are sweet smelling again. Authentic UGG boots may have a synthetic rubber sole but they are always made from one piece of sheep skin, not two pieces glued together. There is no cowhide used in the process, such as suede on the outside with sheepskin on the inside. And of course no synthetic materials are used. The difference becomes obvious when wearing the synthetic boots because they do not confirm to your foot and the boot does not breathe.new handbags
You should buy UGG boots, and then you will find it is really good. Even Ugg boots is not in the above list, I still have to call for returning women's things back to women. Today men gradually become obsessed with fashionable things that belong to women. However, how to properly wear becomes a big question that most men can't solve. Generally speaking, there are two reasons for this change. On the one hand Ugg, most of the shoes are so expensive. As for most of the luxurious Ugg shoes, this kind of materials are their top choose, so undoubtedly, the shoes are all unaffordable for most of people. The leading character of the movie Titanic is not an exception since it also looks strange for Ugg to appear on other means feet. On the other hand, compared with ornaments Uggs, people now like products with practical use better.
Today's Uggs still come in the fleece-lined, form-fitting style that the Australian pilots favored. But the company added a sole that makes them great for outdoor wear. The classic model is designed to be worn barefoot, allowing the fleece lining to trap body heat and provide insulating warmth in the cold weather and to cool feet by wicking away perspiration when it is hot outside. So critics can call them ugly, but they work in any weather.

Keep away from the Fake Louis Vuitton Handbags
Louis Vuitton handbags are extremely expensive, making them a symbol of wealth and taste. In the West, they are often carried by celebrities, further making them an object of desire by those who can't afford them.They have been popular for decades as the handbag of the upper classes. In recent years, they have become popular with people from all social classes all over the world. The look has become so popular that Louis Vuitton is now plagued by an abundance of fake Louis Vuittonnew handbags.
The high cost of the Louis Vuitton handbags will be a waste of money if they turn to be a fake. There are several large makers of fake Louis Vuitton handbags. They produce the fake bags of lesser quality that may come apart after a few uses because of the poor workmanship. Maybe you are among the people who are planning to buy a fake Louis Vuitton Handbag because of your tight budget. But if you want to buy the authentic Louis Vuitton handbags, it will be an ultimately terrible thing for you to realize you have received the fakes at the price of authentic ones. Therefore, some tips must be intended to avoid fake Louis Vuitton satchel handbags.
Firstly, there is a likely fact that the fake Louis Vuitton handbags are being sold by the street vendors. Designer handbags, especially the expensive Louis Vitton handbags, are only sold through licensed vendors, and someone would never be able to sell a real handbag on a street corner.
Secondly, the price will help you identify whether the fashion handbags are fakes or not. Fake Louis Vitton handbags are usually sold for 1/10 or less than the price of the real ones. For a certain style of Louis Vuitton handbags, the price is fixed. You can check the fixed price on the website of Louis Vuitton. And if you are offered a lower price for the same style of bags, the handbag is out of question a fake.
Thirdly, if you shop online, only buy from reputable online stores. If you find a Louis Voutton handbag online, and eager to purchase it. I suggest you to Google a review of this online store and check it is national reputation. If the company seems sketchy, it may be selling fake Louis Vuitton handbags.
Fourly, learn about the features of the authentic Louis Vuitton handbags and keep them in mind when shopping. You should check a bag from all of the parts, to make sure that all features of the bag you are going to buy are conforming to that of the real bags. Keep your eyes bright and keep away from the fake Louis Vuitton handbags. Even if you are not aware of the fake bags, take a close friend with you who can help you.

Designer Handbags - What Makes Prada Handbags Fashion Must Haves?
Finding the rightnew handbagscan be a wonderful or frustrating as sifting through a box of chocolates. You can't simply just select one based on outward appearances alone. Finding joy in shopping requires a short checklist of decision making criteria, but it can be fun and a great experience if you set out with the right frame of mind. When it comes to designer handbags, many people think one expensive bag as just like any other expensive bag. But, au contraire, my beautiful friend. No two chocolates are alike and neither are the luxurious goods from a far. From the exotic, to the classic, high fashion to everyday practical, special occasion to evening casual, the reasons and styles for designer satchel handbags vary as much as the contents carried within.
One of my favorite lines is the iconic collection of Prada fashion handbags. From satchels to totes, shoulder bags to hobo bags, clutches, frame bags and more, Prada Handbags have provided the classic and simple elegance that is true to Italian style. When selecting your newest addition of style and statement, a few things should be considered prior to the hunt.
What's the end use?
Will this handbag be for a special occasion, event or reason or are you just in the mood for that latest and greatest of Prada Handbags? Either way, once you've determined the cause of the shopping extravaganza, you should now consider size.
Size - How much do you need to bring with you?
If size wasn't determined by the use, you need to determine how large or small of a handbag you'll require for your must have possessions. We all know that for weddings and special occasions where the dress is the focal point, you don't want to overpower your formal wear with a purse that is too prominent, either in size or color. If this isn't for a special occasion, but rather an everyday handbag, then you move onto your daily valuables. If you're the kind of gal that tags her entire makeup collection everywhere she goes, then you'll want to forgo the clutch style and opt for a Hobo or Shoulder Bag that provides ample room for all your beauty necessities. I myself, tend to me a bit of a minimalist when it comes to items to carry, but I love making a statement with accessories. This is where I find my connection with Prada Handbags. Since they are always on the cutting edge of fashion, I know that with the simple addition of my Prada Glace Bowler Handbag, that I can wear just about anything on my body and still look glamorous and convey a sense of style, class and of course, luxury. Prada is well known for simple elegance. Dating back to the company's origins in 1913, where it began as a small luxury goods and accessories shop, the Prada name became a fashion must have in the mid 1980's and has maintained its simplistic yet very desirable allure over the years. Once a Prada girl, always a Prada girl.
Price - Do you have a budget or is price of no concern?
Even designer handbags like Prada Handbags, Gucci, Marc Jacobs, Chloe & Fendi can vary in price. You can always get a great savings if you're not too concerned with last seasons fashions being part of your newest addition. Also, there are many great deals that can be found online, but be careful as not all dealers sell authentic merchandise. This leads us to our next consideration.

Sun Glasses - Such a Bright Idea!
The sun is our friend, but it can also be a deadly enemy. Getting excessive and constant exposure to sunlight without adequate protective gear can wreak havoc on the skin and the eyes. That's why it's important to apply sunscreen on the skin and to wear sun glasses before venturing outdoors. Most people realize that the sun's ultraviolet radiation can cause skin cancer, but not as many people realize that the same ultraviolet rays can cause a raft of eye diseases, such as photokeratitis, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Wearing sun glasses can go a long way toward preventing these disorders - and they look good, too!
The history of using eyewear for protection is not so new. In fact, there is archaeological evidence that the prehistoric Inuit who lived in the Arctic fashioned eye shields with slits out of pieces of bone or wood to avoid snow blindness. And in the "Earth's Children" historical novels of Jean Auel, the main characters Ayla and Jondalar pretty much used the Brand WalletBrand Sunglasses same kind of protective eye shields to safeguard their vision from glare coming from ice and snow as they made their way across a gigantic glacier during the Ice Age. Auel's novels are based on extensive archaeological research and evidence, so it's not farfetched to think that our primitive ancestors used devices to protect their eyes from the elements, as we do now.
Tinted lenses, however, seem to have emerged in China during the medieval period. And they weren't used to protect the eyes from the sun. Instead, judges used tinted spectacles that contained smoked quartz to hide their reactions from other people during a trial. In the 18th century, an English maker of scientific tools, James Ayscough, came up with the idea of tinting the lenses in his spectacles because he thought that white light was not conducive to good vision. The fact that he was an apprentice to an optician named James Mann greatly aided his efforts to create eyewear with tinted lenses that could correct vision disorders.
It was near the middle of the 20th century that sun glasses came into vogue. An American by the name of Sam Foster sold a pair in 1929 in Atlantic City, New Jersey and they started increasing in popularity from 1930 onwards.
The American military saw the potential of the eyewear to reduce glare that plagued pilots in the air and manufacturers rushed to supply the army's needs: Bausch & Lomb created glare-reducing shades for the Army Air Force while Ray Ban released its signature aviator-style shades, which used polarized lens and an innovative frame, also to shield the eyes of aviators from solar glare. To this day, Ray Ban's aviator style glasses remain bestsellers and they are regarded as a classic piece of eyewear.
Today, sunglasses are worn by virtually every person from virtually all walks of life. In addition to using them to protect the eyes from the rays of the sun, they have become a vital fashion accessory - so much so, that they are worn even at night! They come in all shapes, colors, and sizes and are available in a wide range of prices. The less-expensive pieces can be had for next to nothing - just don't expect to be getting value for money. On the other hand, some models run into the hundreds or thousands of dollars. This may be because of the cachet that comes with certain brand names. Or it may be because of the materials used to create the eyewear. Some designer creations are made with expensive materials like platinum, gold, and silver. Some are even encrusted with precious gemstones! This is all well and good if you can afford it, just don't neglect the basic qualities of good sun glasses.
First of all, not only must they flatter your face, they must also be comfortable. The materials used can influence comfort greatly. Glass is usually the best material for lenses since they don't scratch easily. But they're heavy and can break when hit, so some individuals opt for other materials such as polycarbonate plastic, acrylic plastic, and CR-39. Frames also come in a variety of materials, such as metal, nylon, and plastic and can help create the look that one wants. Want to look strict, or elegant, or fun, or whimsical? So many frames and lenses can contribute to getting that look and more.

Baseball Sunglasses - a Home Run in Sports Eyewear
Baseball, the greatest pastime of America. It's such a part of many Americans' lives: little children pitch and bat in the Little League while their parents proudly look on. The same intensity can be felt by baseball players in the Big Leagues. They feel pressure not only from public scrutiny, but also from making sure that they take every step possible to avoid injury or sickness, because time away from the field means less money and more chances of being replaced by someone younger and stronger. Baseball sunglasses are part of a player's arsenal of protective bodywear and accessories for staying in the game.
Many baseball games are played at night, but about just as many are played outdoors in broad daylight, too. This is when baseball sunglasses are indispensable. Without such sports sunglasses, trying to catch a ball - especially one that is hit up high - is very difficult indeed. Staring straight up into the sun while trying Brand WalletBrand Sunglasses to ascertain the ball's location and speed of descent can strain the eyes and increase the chance that the ball will be missed. It is partly for this reason that baseball players wear sunglasses - to enhance their playing performance. Many baseball sunglasses come with lenses that are optimized to eliminate glare and enhance vision, especially on sunny days. Baseball players prefer wearing so-called amber sunglasses on such days, even though the lenses aren't really amber. More often than not, they are either brown or gray.
There are also baseball sunglasses that are suitable for games played at night, but the tint of the lenses need to be considered very carefully. It is best to use clear lenses that have an anti-reflective coating to offset or absorb the glare of bright stadium lights. Baseball players sometimes use sunglasses with yellow lenses for indoor games, but experts warn that such colored lenses can compromise visual discernment and can affect reaction times.
Another aspect of the importance of sports eyewear is their ability to shield players from serious injury. In fact, figures from the National Society to Prevent Blindness show that thousands of injuries were caused directly or indirectly by playing baseball. Many of the injuries were inflicted on players' eyes when the ball would hit them there. A baseball that has been pitched or batted can travel at very fast speeds, and the injuries they can cause have the potential to be very serious indeed. For this reason, it is recommended that baseball players choose sports sunglasses with polycarbonate lenses, which are able to withstand the impact of a baseball and are virtually shatterproof. Having a lightweight but durable frame is just as important. Polycarbon frames are likewise resistant to breaking and are suitable for baseball players. Some baseball sunglasses have a shield design where the entire front of the frame is a polycarbon lens while the temples are another material. What's good about this type of design is that the lens can be changed to suit the daylight condition of a particular game.
Players who need sports sunglasses or goggles need not worry. Many brands now offer customized eyewear to fit any . There are even models where the user can change the lenses to fit lighting conditions while maintaining lens . Rudy Project is one such brand that offers sunglasses.
There are many other baseball sunglasses brands in the marketplace, the vast majority of which offer the high quality and stylistic design that athletes want and need. Some brands use their own proprietary technology in their sports sunglasses. For instance, Oakley incorporates its Polaric Ellipsoid technology in its lenses to ensure purity of vision, one that is not hampered by distortions. Akadema is another popular brand whose shades offer 100% ultraviolet radiation protection and shatter-proof frames and lenses. Kaenon, Nike, Bolle - these and many more grace the faces of baseball players and other athletes, both in the professional and non-professional leagues.
Baseball sunglasses are part of the whole package that contributes to how a pitcher pitches, a batter bats, or a catcher catches. They can enhance playing performance and play a major role in protecting players from eye injuries caused by either sunlight or an errant ball. On top of all that, they can make a player look cool, too! This proves that baseball sunglasses are not only useful and functional, but that they are attractive pieces of sports eyewear as well.

Tour Destination – Bible Lands Museum, Jerusalem
Some of my articles written for travel magazines I had recourse to informative material from Bible Lands Museum's current and past exhibitions and from their extensive archives. The curators of the museum were quite forthcoming and I appreciated their kind assistance and guidance. Now I would like my readers to learn about the museum and their aim and objectives. When he bought an satchel handbagsancient cylinder seal way back in 1943, Near Eastern scholar Dr. Elie Borowski (1913-2003) never suspected he was sealing his future. For that seal was destined to be the first in a remarkable collection, which has swollen over the years to over 1,400 examples.
What started as an academic's hobby became the passion of a life time – ultimate leading to Jerusalem
, where Borowski's collection plus more than 300 other relics form civilizations of the biblical era, have gone on show in a new museum built to his exact specification. The Bible Lands Museum is located, aptly enough, between Jerusalem's past and present; between the shrine of the Book, where the Dead Sea Scrolls are kept, and the Knesset, Israeli parliament.
"The future of mankind has its roots in the past," said Eli Borowski, explaining both his fascination for these ancient artifacts, and his collection's significance to the general viewer. The seals form the nucleus of the museum, while the rest of the collection includes a wealth of objects either donated or released on permanent loan.
A treasure trove of history, the museum is a good starting point for any visitor arriving in Israel to explore sites mentioned in the Scriptures. Bible in hand, one can join the Exodus while examining artifacts from Ancient Egypt; "these are the names of the Israelites who entered Egypt... "(Exodus 1:1) Moving on to another gallery, one imagines the thunder of battle and clash of arms while looking at the implements of war: "A sword for the Lord and for Gideon.." (Judges 7:20). The Prophet Elijahs mockery of the Canaanite god Baal, the promise of a ‘New Jerusalem' by the Prophet Isaiah, Jeremiah's warning of the punishment for false religions, and Ezekiel's prophesy against the nations. All are brought vividly to fashion handbagsmind by exhibits reflecting traditions, rituals and religions of the cultures of the period.
All the peoples mentions in the Bible are represented there: Philistines, Canaanites and Arameans, Hittites and Elamites, Phoenicians and Persians, Romans and Greeks. Each of the twenty galleries of the museum brings together finds from different regions, explaining interactions between ancient nations of the Near East through their seals, ivories, mosaics, sarcophagi and stelae.
One gallery, for instance, is devoted to the migration of eastern Mediterranean populations in the twelfth century BC. So while the Israelites are depicted conquering Canaan, the movements of the Philistines, Sardians, Sicilians and others (the Peoples of the Sea) are traced to the probable roots in the regions of the Black Sea and ancient Greece.
Although is dedicated to ancient times – from the hunting and gathering society of the prehistoric Neolithic period of 6,000 BC, to Rome's empire-building during the early Christian era and of the Byzantine Empire, the museum makes full use of modern, state of the art technology. In the gallery devoted to Symbolic Communications, an interactive computerized exhibit shows the many different uses of seals, illustrating 3000 years of glyptic art.
In fact, you could not find a more user-friendly ways of getting in touch with the past; "And see the Land what it is and the people that dwelleth therein (Numbers 13:18). As a visitor to the museum you will come away enriched with greater knowledge of biblical events and the understanding of the Bible's influence on Western civilization and world events

Gulf Spill Could Surpass Exxon Valdez as Environmental Disaster
All indications are that the oil spill currently raging from the depths of the Gulf of Mexico will be the worst environmental disaster to hit the U.S. in recent memory - and possibly ever. Comparisons are being made to the Exxon Valdez disaster in Alaska, even though there was a finite amount of oil in place there that eventually leaked into the Puget Sound, killing thousands of animals and contaminating the ecosystem to this day.
With Obama's recent announcement that U.S. was going to allow the ban on coastal drilling to expire, this disaster could not have come at a worse time. The backlash from not just the disaster, but the perceived lack of an appropriate response by the U.S. government is going to likely haunt the administration, especially satchel handbagsfashion handbags among moderates and independents would would have assumed that the Obama administration would be more proactive in addressing such a disaster.
Some are speculating that this event could become synonymous with government incompetence and under-responsiveness, in much the same way that Hurricane Katrina haunted the Bush administration. There is no doubt that the U.S. response to this disaster is going to be highly scrutinized, especially in areas that are going to be immediately affected, namely states with coastlines in the Gulf.
