Finding the news is like mining for gold

Want to know what is happening in the world? Don't look to the major news outlets. Look here to see how we're being tricked by these 'news' companies, and maybe see some lesser reported news in the mean time. Is there any integrity in the media anymore?

Kindle Touch Lighted Cover Website

Surprise! I've launched a new website today, in the wee hours of the morning. Introducing KindleTouchLightedCover
It's a very simple site, but it has the relevant information. As soon as I can get my grimy mitts on one of these, I'll do a video review. In the mean time, words will have to do. Is anyone itching to get the new Kindle Touch? I know I am! Have a look see, and keep me in mind when you go to make your purchase. It's all through Amazon but if you shop for a Kindle Touch Lighted Cover via my site you'll help me put some bread on the table.

Shh...It's a Secret

I've got another new website coming! This one I think anyone can appreciate. It's called VeganFoodList.org and will feature anything and everything that is vegan food. If I can find it I want to list it. As of right now there is very little to see, but I'm starting to build my vegan food lists and will launch the site in the coming weeks. Until then, I'll be blogging my progress at the site. I have some ideas about the graphics, but I'm not yet decided how intense I'll get with that. I DO want it to look pretty and be fun, so I have some design work ahead of me.
Enjoy the vegan food lists and enjoy eating, right.

Forks Over Knives

I got Forks Over Knives in the UPS today! I watched it almost immediately. I must say that for those of you who are not going to read The China Study, you must watch Forks Over Knives. I already knew almost all of the information presented (because I've read these gentlemen's books, and done a lot of other research into nutrition) and I was still blown away at the excellent presentation and clarity of message. Most of the time documentary films tend to whine, moan and complain about all the ills of some negative point or evil corporation. But the Forks Over Knives documentary film did no such thing. While there are some necessary un-pleasantries that must be discussed, the majority of the film is very positive and upbeat, sharing any and all of the great reasons to learn more about nutrition and it's effects upon our health.

Dr.'s T Colin Campbell and Caldwell Esselstyn have teamed up in Forks Over Knives to present a compelling and action calling narrative on America's current state of health, and they back it all up with ancient and modern history and decades of research. I doubt you will find a better way to spend 96 minutes and a few of your hard earned dollars than to watch this riveting, and at times heart-wrenching, film.

Forks Over Knives isn't an emotional roller coaster, in fact it doesn't even play much on emotions other than humans struggling for a healthy life (and who doesn't want that?). None the less I found myself taking in the ramifications of the film as it neared it's conclusion with tears streaming down my cheeks. I had been taking notes and still tried to carry on, but the words ran sideways across the lines of the page and I had to stop. I learned then and there, today, that I have a great passion for this knowledge of health and happiness to be shared with people. So much confusion exists about what is healthy and what is not, mostly caused by political and corporate subterfuge. It breaks my heart to know that people are dying from disease who, given the information in this film, could overcome and live.

Forks Over Knives is not a call to action, from my point of view. It is a polarizing lens which blocks the glare of misinformation and lets the truth be seen.

Evolution: Survival or Selection?

Charles Darwin. The name needs no introduction. But what about the theories and ideas promulgated by his famous book? Are they really understood, or even known in full? Most of the public knowledge of his work is cursory, at best, describing only the gradual change over time of species. This short video explores just a little deeper and in more eye-opening way.
