I have been lucky enough to attend a course last year at the Paris-based Institut d'Etudes Politiques about "Biodynamic Agriculture", which is like organic agriculture, except it is even more deeply rooted in its belief that man should learn to take his food from the Earth without draining its resources or endangering its survival. During that time I learned that Monsanto is one of the worst possible enemies of a healthy, environmentally responsible approach to agriculture that could be imagined…

During my childhood, I always think Is it up to us to choose our life. I always heard from my parent saying that life is very hard and they don't have a choice but to work hard to get what they want. Is that entirely true, and do we really have to work so hard just to get what we want? After I join the club, I am in the same situation as well as people around me. Then I have another question in mind, when the time we get what we think we want, is that really what we want?
After asking

Restaurants, fast food joints, anywhere you take leftover food from your meals home should be fined for giving out Styrofoam containers. Styrofoam doesn't biodegrade (in our lifetimes) therefore we should not use it except for insulation on boats! I propose that all food joints move to biodegradable food containers by 2011 or be fined!

Each of us have been touched by addiction. Whether it is ourselves that have become addicted to drugs or alcohol or a family member. There isn't a person who hasn't been impacted by the devistation of addiction. Here is a quick snapshot of how I got my life back after ruining my career as an Analyst with a bank in Dallas. I knew that I could no longer perform at my job after the president came and asked me to sign a performance contract. So at that time I told him that I needed help and needed t…

Concering the financial meltdown:
Credit default swaps brought down the big financial companies. These credit default swaps were described as insurance. So were there actually insurance payouts? Who was paid?
Where did the billions of dollars go that the government poured into these companies. We hear about how AIG had to be propped up. But where did the money actually go? (Please don't tell me that it went to AIG.) I've watched the Frontline financial disaster documentaries multiple times and I…

Folks who are ancient enough still to be drooling over Paul Simon's epic album Graceland will remember one of its unfathomable but deliciously-sounding lines;
"
Its all over the evening news - all about the fire in your life on the evening news." I've never had a clue what he was on about. But I know that when I came to America the Evening News really counted for something…

of what's wrong with our deregulated, underfunded country. Because there is no conclusive research that demonstrates that this playground surfacing material is unsafe, we think it must be safe. "The Government wouldn't allow a dangerous product on the market, and certainly not a children's product.
In fact, no research has been done on it, despite concerns stemming from the source of Crumb Rubber: material we don't want in our landfills because it's too toxic. So we can believe whatever we want…
