Europeans embrace biofuels
Article Abstract:
Europeans already are accepting ethanol and biodiesel as mainstays at the gas pump, and the popularity of agriculture-based fuels is forcing European Union (EU) members increasingly to look abroad to satisfy demand for both raw material and finished products. Concerns about possible supply disruptions and Kyoto Protocol mandates to reduce green-house gas emissions have prompted the European governments to seek a clean-burning alternative that could provide some measure of energy security.

Crocodile dung and tar
Article Abstract:
The Egyptian papyruses dating from around 1850 B.C. contain recipes for vaginal suppositories thought to prevent conception, including honey that is used to slow down the movement of the sperm and crocodile dung. They also believed in douches and purges, spermicides like salt, honey, oil, tar, lead, mint juice and cabbage seed to prevent pregnancy.
