"Panasonic will introduce AA and AAA disposable batteries in June that the company calls the 'most significant developments in primary battery technology in 40 years.'
According to Panasonic, these Oxyride batteries last up to twice as long as premium alkaline batteries like Duracell Ultra ($5 for four), yet cost the same as regular alkalines ($4 for four)."
Upon further reading of this article, Alkaline batteries can outlast the Oxyride ones, but only if you run the application continuously non-stop. In real world situations, switching the device on and off many times and over a long period of time, the Oxyride will outlast and out perform the Alkaline. But the main advantage is that the Oxyride is 13% more powerful (1.7volts vs 1.5 volts) so your device will perform better than on Alkaline batteries. And, oh yes, did I mention that they will be cheaper?!

"There is no creator" - the Dalai Lama. These are words of common sense, and it tells me that "spirituality" has nothing in particular to do with a belief in the supernatural. But then, those of us who grew up in the seventies watching "Kung Fu" already knew that being a vegan, atheist who follows the path of the buddha can reach enlightenment.
All kidding aside, what does a vegetarian atheist have to say? Stick around and you'll find out! Politically I'm rather liberal, but I do like to listen to staunch conservative talk show host Michael (the 'Whiner') Savage so I'll probably be mentioning him from time to time in my weblogs. So for now, how about some talk of broccoli, carrots and peas? Recipe's anyone??

"As mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice and liberality."
