By adding our name to these petitions we pay a small price, seconds of our time, to help others achieve what we mostly take for granted. Others pay with their lives so that freedom is available for those they love. They deserve our help. http://www.avaaz.org/en/stand_with_aung_san_suu_kyi/?copy
Weight Loss Tip
Just bear in mind, you are going to have to pull out all stops to attain your weight loss goal. You cannot put less effort into losing weight than the food manufacturers put into getting you to eat more of their CRAP (Carbohydrate Rich Artificial Poison). This sounds strange (and scary) but there is actually an Institute of Food Technologists that study, amongst other things, how to actually reprogram the brain and increase your desire to eat more through “hyperpalatable” foods.
To be successful in any endeavour you cannot underestimate the power of the enemy.

Wise Words From Oren Lyons, a Native American Elder
Oren Lyons, a Native American Elder and one of the Onondaga Council of Chiefs, was talking to a group of CEOs about sustainability. One said his hands were tied, he had to turn a profit for his shareholders otherwise he would be sacked.
Oren established that the CEO was a father and grandfather then asked him when he ceased being the CEO and started becoming a grandfather. There was a heavy silence.
Oren made the point, “If you don’t have a moral question in your governing process you don’t have a process that’s gonna survive.”
Oren then said, “You must have a moral society or you won’t have any.”

On the point of no return past which there will no longer be the capability of reversing the destruction of the planet, he said he does not believe we are there yet, but, “Every day that you don’t do what’s right is a day you’ve lost an option. And you’re losing your options every day.”
