What has happened to Chris Rice?
I'd love to know. I've been asking this question for two years now. His last entry on his website was, what? three years ago? Nothing since. Here's what I speculate:
Chris Rice is able to live comfortably on the royalty checks he gets from the body of work he has already done. He need not work again and has chosen not to--except for opening the mailbox and going to the bank.
Why? He's gotten older and knows middle age will make him unmarketable. He want's to go out on a high, "leaving 'em wanting more". He pines for a quiet, private life. He's no longer is willing to tolerate the fishbowl scrutiny his fame bought him. Why?
It forced him to live a life that wasn't his. Having to keep up the squeaky clean image that comes with being a red state, Christian singer, concert dates, interviews, always in the public eye--he could not be himself. He chose to be true to himself and perhaps he has found a loving partner to whom he could express his deepest self. He is content to to live out the rest of his days in seclusion with a very small circle friends . Why?
Because he can now and because I imagine he is gay. That is the oil and water that could never mix while he was performing. That was the career-ending scandal always threatening to be exposed. He made a preemptive strike. I'd like to think he finally had a chance at a real, long-term relationship and he abdicated--for love.
I hope he is gloriously happy and I'm grateful for the musical gems he has left behind.
How the ifugaos built the rice terraces?
The Banaue Rice Terraces (Tagalog: Hagdan-hagdang Palayan ng Banawe) also called Payew, are 2000-year old terraces that were carved into the mountains of Ifugao in the Philippines by ancestors of the indigenous people. The Rice Terraces are commonly referred to by Filipinos as the "Eighth Wonder of the World".It is commonly thought that the terraces were built with minimal equipment, largely by hand. The terraces are located approximately 1500 meters (5000 ft) above sea level and cover 10,360 square kilometers (about 4000 square miles) of mountainside. They are fed by an ancient irrigation system from the rainforests above the terraces. It is said that if the steps are put end to end it would encircle half the globe.ocals to this day still plant rice and vegetables on the terraces, although more and more younger Ifugaos do not find farming appealing, often opting for the more lucrative hospitality industry generated by the Rice Terraces[citation needed]. The result is the gradual erosion of the characteristic "steps", which need constant reconstruction and care. In 2010 a further problem was drought, with the terraces drying up completely in March of that year.
Milagrosa or milagroso is the Spanish word for miraculous.

When there is a world demand there is a world supply?
Yes, providing it is technologically possible and the price is acceptable. Like cocaine and heroin. However, there are no yet cures for all diseases, are they?
If fuel price go up, vehicles become more fuel efficient. Like in oil shock of '70s. Houses become better insulated and people rely more on clothing then on air-condition. And yes, more money get invested in search for new oil fields and development of extraction technology.

Well technically we'd never know unless the Rice Krispies people told us, and they can say that past commercials were created before the characters were completely developed, if we did use past commercials as evidence though, we would actually get a clue or so. From the Rice Krispies commercials that I've seen, we have no information on Snap or Pop. But Crackle has blushed at a few girls, even though I'd like to assume they made him gay due to the Singing with the Bars rainbow songs. Of course I fear Im kinda stereotyping some things if I say that. But if that were the case I'd mention the commercial where a little girl thought Crackle was a girl and Crackle blamed his voice... wow I know alot of useless information... *sigh*
