Google hiring Goats: Baaa

Whack! You could see 200 goats chomping away the "grassy goodness" in Mountain View headquarters. Is the search-engine czar considering a new venture in business of chèvre. Google has hired hundreds of goats from California Grazing for a week - does it make any sense? Why would they do so, given their lucrative world-wide business? Well, Googleplex has designed a bats in the belfry solution for the overgrown field - goats…lol. It's not as ludicrous as it sounds.

A feasibility study suggests: cost of bringing goats is comparable to hiring lawn mowers for the same job. More than this, the green benefits of hiring goats are obvious - cutting out on the mower emission; restoring plan species; fertilize while grazing; and reduce noise pollution.

Google is out on honest effort to reduce the carbon footprint, perhaps the men in Mountain View are conscious of Albert "Al" Gore's An Inconvenient Truth (Oscar winning documentary on Earth's climate crisis).

Overtly, Google's act sets an example for all Tech-giants willing to support Green.

Penyakit donya (dunia) dalam pengetahuan orang Melayu seperti di Aceh adalah penyakit yang disebabkan oleh hal-hal supranatural atau adikodrati, atau tersebab manusia yang bersekutu dengan jin, setan, atau makhuk halus yang jahat. Aceh adalah salah satu suku terbesar di Propinsi Aceh. Kebesaran suku Aceh tidak hanya tampak dari kesenian dan kepahlawanan masyarakatnya, tetapi juga pengetahuan mereka terhadap penyakit dan penyembuhannya. Bagi mereka, sakit adalah hal serius yang harus disikapi.
