Four New Books - Books of doom

No matter how you slice it, the world is coming to an end. "The Complete Manual of Things that Might Kill You" will teach you about the dangers you face in everyday life. 'But what about zombies?' you ask. Well, we have two tomes pertaining to them: "Zombie Haiku" (which chronicles the transformation of human to zombie - in haiku) and "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" (a slight update of the Jane Austin classic). And if those aren't enough, then you need to grab "The Geeks' Guide to World Domination" and learn how to end the world by taking it over. Because everyone knows, the Geek shall inherit the Earth.

Dairy cows that produce USDA-certified organic milk also produce manure that may gradually replenish soil nutrients and potentially reduce the flow of agricultural pollutants to nearby water sources, according to findings by Agricultural Research Service (ARS) scientists and colleagues.

Cows on organic dairy farms generally consume forage feeds cultivated on soils that are fertilized with manure and compost rather than manufactured fertilizers. This organic management, in turn, may significantly affect how easily nutrients are converted in soil into forms readily taken up by crops.
