You are what you eat. It is a simple expression that bears scary implications as you watch the acclaimed documentary, FOOD, INC. Director Robert Kenner draws upon the searing reportage of authors Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation) and Michael Pollan (The Omnivore's Dilemma) to explore how modern developments in food production pose grave risks to our health and environment. These writers aren't radicals or even vegetarians (Schlosser admits that his favourite meal is a hamburger and fries), but they are crusaders when it comes to exposing problems and naming offenders. There are stories of heartbreak and outrage, but the film carefully channels these emotions towards opportunities for activism. Watching FOOD, INC. gives you a strong appetite for better meals.

Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead
Fat,Sick and Nearly Dead
100 pounds overweight, loaded up on steroids and suffering from a debilitating autoimmune disease, Joe Cross is at the end of his rope and the end of his hope. In the mirror he saw a 310lb man whose gut was bigger than a beach ball and a path laid out before him that wouldn't end well- with one foot already in the grave, the other wasn't far behind. FAT, SICK & NEARLY DEAD is an inspiring film that chronicles Joe's personal mission to regain his health. With doctors and conventional medicines unable to help long-term, Joe turns to the only option left, the body's ability to heal itself. He trades in the junk food and hits the road with juicer and generator in tow, vowing only to drink fresh fruit and vegetable juice for the next 60 days. Across 3,000 miles Joe has one goal in mind: To get off his pills and achieve a balanced lifestyle. While talking to more than 500 Americans about food, health and longevity, it's at a truck stop in Arizona where Joe meets a truck driver who suffers from the same rare condition. Phil Staples is morbidly obese weighing in at 429 lbs; a cheeseburger away from a heart-attack. As Joe is recovering his health, Phil begins his own epic journey to get well. What emerges is nothing short of amazing - an inspiring tale of healing and human connection. Part road trip, part self-help manifesto, FAT, SICK & NEARLY DEAD defies the traditional documentary format to present an unconventional and uplifting story of two men from different worlds who each realize that the only person who can save them is themselves.

What You Own vs. What Owns You
For years, I’ve said (mostly to myself), “Whatever you own, also owns you.” This morning I woke up curious where I got that expression from? Did I adopt it from someone? And, if so, who? I can’t recall.
Whatever You Own, Also Owns You
So, if you have ever heard the expression, or you also know the source of it, then please tell me what you know! I’d very much like to solve the mystery.
Everything I Own, Owns Me
Some days, I don't enjoy being in my own house. I walk in the door, and instead of seeing a haven, I see projects: dishes, laundry, mail to sort, walls I was going to paint, carpet I was going to have cleaned, broken things I'd meant to fix. Everywhere I look, there's some thing that needs to be done.
My "stuff" makes claims on me daily. And my stuff, and your stuff, is in danger of destroying the world as we know it. Does that sound melodramatic? Follow me after the jump for a view of the real impact "stuff" has on us--both personally and globally.
Consumerism affects every aspect of our lives, from how happy we are on a day to day basis to how long we will be able to sustain our environment and our planet.

Dream of Life | Alan Watts
Alan Watts just explained quantum physics idea of the multiverse, Buddhist idea of reincarnation, with a dream interpretation. Fully explaining the reason for life’s suffering and joys.
Watts’ goal seems to be to impress upon the reader that reality might be a dream; that we have ultimate control (or not - as we choose) over our lives and how they play out. Do we? This reminded me of another, similar, more poetic speech on the same topic, by Marianne Williamson: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Net Neutrality And Cyber Surveillance
Buzz words like “net neutrality” and “cyber surveillance” are often heard and seen in the media, along with various bills referred to by various acronyms. What does it all mean, and why should you care?
Canadians have long enjoyed relatively open and free access to Internet. One of the most important aspects of the Internet is the information and ideas that it has provided to billions of people worldwide. The Internet has been a catalyst for social and political change, spreading concepts and ideas around the globe in a short period of time, and has even had a role in helping take down oppressive regimes. It is where free speech and innovation are king.
The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) developed a framework in 2009 which guides Internet service providers (ISPs) on accepted Internet Traffic Management Practices (ITMPs).
