Hello Brothers and Sisters,

I just watched an amazing documentary called "The Future Of Food", an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind engineered foods that have quietly filled U.S. grocery store shelves for the past decade. this  film is stunning in what it reveals, and very well made.

THE FUTURE OF FOOD examines the complex web of market and political forces that are changing what we eat as huge multinational corporations seek to control the world's food system. The film also explores alternatives to large-scale industrial agriculture, placing organic and sustainable agriculture as real solutions to the farm crisis today.

_________________________ Pirate fishing _________________________
 

When you think of pirates, you might conjure up an image of a Hollywood movie or a peg-legged character from a novel. But pirates really do exist today, and there's nothing fictional about the impact they're having on our oceans. Today's pirates are plundering fish and turning a blind eye to rules and regulations. They catch unlimited amounts of fish and they don't discriminate, pillaging endangered fish and by-catch like sea turtles alike. They use harmful fishing methods that can permanently damage marine habitats and that injure or kill marine life.

How do pirated fish end up on your grocery store shelves? Right now, stores aren't tracking where their seafood comes from, and our government isn't making them.

Take Action >> Tell the U.S. government to throw pirate fishing practices overboard... To help; Sign this petition at the link below:

The good news is that pirate fishing can be stopped and YOU can help. Take action and ask the U.S. government to push for greater tracking of pirate fishing loot. Consumers need to know if the seafood they're buying comes from pirate vessels. If we can arm ourselves with knowledge, we can put these pirates out of business.

“DISARM"
This newly mastered DVD is LOADED with extras including deleted scenes and director's commentary! An eye opening film about Land-mines, their effects on people (physically and psychologically) and the attempt to ban them and remove them. A must see for all global citizens.
 
Please add "DISARM" to your Amazon.com wishlist and Netflix.com queue,
It will open your mind to an important issue plaguing our fellow Global citizens.

Many reviewers have praised Disarm for its unflinching approach towards this issue, not just being a standard humanitarian documentary, as well as for its cinematography and soundtrack.
 
One of the film makers of "Disarm" is Brian Liu , who co-designed the "in seed comes fruit" c.d. art - he is a passionate person whom I respect immensely.
