Stop BP Public Relations!

The BP Oil Disaster, Seen From the International Space Station
~Soichi Noguchi, a JAXA astronaut currently floating around the ISS, has been raining down various photos of the Earth's surface for quite some time now, via his Twitter account.
There's no context provided with the picture, so it's hard to be sure which part of the photo is oil, and which is water. Generally, oil has photographed as lighter than water from space, so I'm guessing it's the terrifying, overwhelming lower left section.

How BP pushed tech envelope:

~Hat Tip~Library Chronicles
~Editilla Calls to the AP~ STOP PUSHING BP PR!
Stop allowing BP to say things like "The leak will be stopped but we can't say when." or "One leak plugged." (when that hasn't been actually verified) or "Sea Turtles aren't dying from Oil" (without telling us how they are dying in such great numbers).
~BP has massively ramped up lobby spending under Chief Executive Tony Hayward, reaching $16 million last year versus only $3.6 million in 2006 -- the year before Hayward took over. BP spent $3.5 million in the first quarter of this year alone.

~Urban Dictionary Word for the Day: amirite

Still allowed to walk the streets BP Perp Tony Hayward keeps on spinning like a broken record
~Editilla Rotellas~ We just wonder why this Perp is allowed unfettered access to our National News Media to do his company's Public Relations Spin. Why hasn't he been arrested or at least his passport seized? Or a Pie in His Lying Face.
