the movie is not that interesting as I thought it would be
it mostly deals with USA christianity but touches judaism and islam too
it looks as if they’ve took some of the ideas from Zeitgeist movie
anyway, go and see it and see what you think about it…
great stuff for us geeks out there
well it’s not just for geeks
you can find there general videos like about the health, nutrition, meditation etc.
I’ve seen Larry Walk talk on Perl 6, some astronomy videos, etc.
highly recommended, check it out here
this is a continuation of the original Zeitgeist movie
now it talks about the bad things of the monetary system and offers an alternative, a resource based system that would benefit everyone
at start it gives some info about how money is made of thin air
then goes on to explain how the globalization works
in the end it finishes with asking us to awake ourselves, see the system we’re in and change it to the better one, resource based

this has been an eye opening documentary about the misuse of dogs
it talks about the British Kennel Club and the inbreeding health problems of the dogs
inbreeding makes dogs that conform more to the breed standard but health problems are not really taken into account
most common issues include hip, elbow problems, cancer (usually bone or brain tumor), heart, breathing problems, shorter life span etc.
I personally like dogs and have thought about getting a pure bred dog or two, maybe starting a breeding business but after seeing this I have doubts…
I guess working dogs and mixed dogs, those that aren’t bread for beauty, are much healthier and should be a choice when getting a dog
as one person said in a movie, if you punch a dog in the head with a stick and the dog develops head problems you’d probably get arrested or something but if you breed a good looking dog with visible genetic health problems and pass on those genes that replicate the problems to the puppies you are not held responsible
think about it…
first something about me
I have a purpose in my life
and that is to go to the countryside, buy a house and live there, hopefully on a mountain
I would need there the Internet, a family and a car (a jeep maybe)
and I can picture myself with a dog and few domestic animals that I would not kill
like chickens that I would have for eggs, a cow for fresh milk etc.
I wouldn’t need to have these animals but I’d like to have them
“The Real Dirt on Farmer John” is an unusual documentary
it is good because it talks about farming, something I may enjoy doing in the future, growing organic food for myself
the main character is not your typical farmer
his mother is a great lady, too bad she died 
I really enjoyed watching her, she’s really special
farmer John likes art, hippies
he describes his life, his family, his farm
how he started rich, got into debt and rose like a phoenix 
actually, he made a profitable business doing something called Community Supported Agriculture
he made a website called Angelic Organics
now, I didn’t understand it 100% but the main thing is that he grows organic food and that people invest in him financially so that they may have like a basket of food each week
the people also work on his farm and have fun doing things
I think the idea is great
I for one am sick of the food I buy at big supermarkets
food with pesticides, genetic modifications etc.
so, whenever I can, I buy food from peasants I know
that way I support my community instead of filling pockets of rich corporations
