2007-11-06 23:41 New Thing #226: Ponies for Peace
I really wish this country wasn't at war. Hopefully one day soon we won't be. But the sad fact is that we are, and there are way too many people facing unspeakable dangers overseas every day because of it. But, while war sucks, the country will never not have a military, so it's important to support the people who dedicate their lives to it. I decided to boost the spirits of one random female soldier, and I sent a care package to a woman in the military. I made sure it had all the stuff I would …

2007-10-25 05:25 This Business Of Being Born
Last night I had the privilege of viewing a private screening of the new documentary film The Business Of Being Born, directed by Abby Epstein and executive produced by Ricki Lake. I had just finished reading Tina Cassidy's book Birth: The Surprising History of How We Are Born and was even more convinced that my next baby will be born at home. So, going to this movie had me excited and eager to learn even more about birth in American hospitals, birth centers, and homes. It's shocking, the miscon …

2007-10-22 16:44 Meio ambiente: Arborizando Nairobi e uma possível apropriação indevida de terras no Monte Quênia
Existe uma boa e uma má notícia vindas do Quênia. A boa se refere ao crescimento de áreas verdes na capital Nairobi, e a má se refere à apropriação indevida de terras que está acontecendo ao redor do Monte Quênia. Vamos dar uma olhada nessas historias no GV meio-ambiente. Começando pela boa notícia, Bankelele relata no fórum de liderança, que aconteceu no dia 17 de outubro, o discurso de John Gakuo, secretário executivo de Nairobi intitulado: "John Gakuo: Recuperando a glória de Nairobi."

Long before (and by "long" I mean, a month before the "kuffiyeh kraze" first graced this lovely blog) I virolically slammed New York Hipsters for ignorantly wrapping the ever so dead kuffiyeh around their "red" necks on KABOBfest, I did just that on my myspace blog. Check it out: Thursday, October 05, 2006 STOP CO-OPTING MY CULTURE!!!

2007-10-19 20:05 SpearTalks: Amit Gupta
Amit Gupta is an entrepreneur. If you read Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, Wired, or any other combination of America's best publications, your eyes have probably skimmed the same pages that some of Amit's more popular projects have graced. Photojojo, the friendliest photography* newsletter around, and Jelly, the co-working sessions that help creative types get even more creative, are perhaps the most popular examples of Amit's endeavors (and definitely the most written about).

SPX 2007 4:50 am Friday morning, Blair and I hopped in The Possum-Wagon and commenced on our journey to Bethesda MD USA for the Small Press Expo. It was a nice drive. Travelling through Maryland on the I-70 I was captivated by the beautiful rolling hills and miniature mountains, with scattered farms and colonial houses. I wanted to move there. Immediately. It sure beats the concrete sprawl of the GTA. I should have taken a picture. Next year, I ll take a picture. 1:00 pm we arrived at the conven …

2007-10-19 00:12 How To Build A Blogger From The Ground Up - Second In the PB Round-Up Series
Hi All, Yesterday I started my Project Blogger Round-Up series in an attempt to chronicle in one place my process going from 0 (brand new to blogging, Active Rain and Real Estate) to Mach 1 (two fully functional blog sites, one here on Active Rain and the other being Route66Living.com).

2007-10-18 15:48 reverence
As Mormon children we are taught a lot about reverence. In Mo parlance reverence doesn't have anything to do with respect or awe, it's about sitting quietly in your seat with your arms folded across your lap (and I'm not at all exaggerating about the posture) for the 3-hour block of meetings each Sunday. As children we are repeatedly told this and every week in the children's Primary meeting there are 'reverence songs' to underscore these ideas. I haven't heard the word reverence discussed in Qu …
