Fur trade from China
This video has been watched 2 and a half million times and needs to be seen by millions more. It doesn't matter who is delivering the message, it is important the message gets out and EVERYONE takes responsibility and stops buying fur, it is disgusting treating animals this way.. Please use the power of word of mouth and sharing to get this to everyone you know, PLEASE!
Oh and just a warning this video bought me to tears and I had to cover my eyes at some points it really is graphic..

Petrol price comparison with UK, Australia and USA
I sit in astonishment and just wonder how the Uk government can get away with charging 70-80% tax on petrol and diesel and rising the cost of it, saying that there is less fuel and its more expensive.
Check this site out it's got breakdowns of the cost of fuel http://www.petrolprices.com/price-of-petrol.html
When I lived in Australia I would always compare the standard of living with the Uk I guess we all do it. So last night I looked on line to see how much fuel prices are in Australia and in the USA.
Australia it’s around 70p a litre and in the USA it’s around 50p a litre. Now don’t get me wrong their prices have gone up however the difference is their governments don’t take a hefty whack from their citizens.
I keep wondering when the British public will get sick and tired of being sapped dry and de-pressed by the corporations / banks and government, with their overpriced products, taxes, bills, charges / interests and anything else they can get money out of us for..
I wonder what will happen when the British publics do go past boiling point on mass. Will we just all stop using and there for put everyone out of business.. As the buyers we have the power to make change. We could set up demonstrations of our anguish and have rallies but the government has got that one tied up with legislation passed to police and disperse groups of um is it over 6 people gathered together. But what they can’t stop the people doing is stop using, stop buying, stop spending. They need your money for their over exaggerated greedy wheel to carry on turning but if we all stopped paying then maybe there would be room for change.
Why is it that Australians only pay 70p a litre? There are no oil fields there they too have to ship in the fuel. The UK fits into the size of Victoria State just one fifth of Australia and their fuel has to be dispersed all over the country so I really cant see how it would cost them any less to get it to the pump..
Can someone please tell me why this is!!!

This little ditty rocks from the barefoot doc!!
Hiya!
Most days a free message appears in my in box from http://www.barefootdoctorglobal.com/ and recently this arrived...
If his ditty vibes with you go check him out and register wiv him and you too can sit at your computer and be bought back to center in a flash haha! Hope your havin a totally awesome day, lite vibes Denny
The Ride That Will Carry You Higher
Everyone's walking around looking for something, some seek it in pleasure, some seek it in pain. Some seek it in others, some seek it in wealth. Some seek it in possessions. Some seek it in obsessions. Some seek it openly, some seek it in stealth.
However, while seeking externally, disappointment will arise again and again.
Most aren't even aware of what they seek, they just seek. And because it makes you weak to seek and seek, it pays to give the mechanism a little tweak.
What we seek we've already got, although that may not mean a lot, till you quieten your mind, at which point you find, from deep within, the wellspring of life and that's when you begin to start fully living, by letting go of unnecessary resistance and giving yourself over to the Great Current underscoring existence.
Focus your mind on your breath, for that's mostly what separates you from the realm of death. Breathe deep and slow and within moments you'll know you are not this body, not this mind, and not anything you'll find on the physical plane. Though as your body provides access by which you'll attain success, drop your weight below your navel now, draw your consciousness back between your ears, soften your chest, let roll away your fears and tears of self-pity and take a rest from your story of failures and glories. Then all at once, if you remain quiet and still within your skin, from behind, from the sides, from below and from above, you'll receive what you've been seeking: cosmic love.
And as you breathe it in and breathe it out, you are gradually left with less and less doubt that behind all appearances of blockages and clearances, the way is open to achieve all you desire.
Generate it now by the grace of the Tao. Visualise it within and begin the ride that will carry you higher and bring you to precisely where you've always wanted to be: the state of perfect harmony.
Whether you live in the country or city, may the meaning of this randomised ditty cause magic in your life now and may you feel the Tao in all you do, think and say today and tonight as you work, rest and play.
Love, Doc

Yoke and Zooms Tea Party and Ansel Adams!
On Saturday we went on adventure to a tea party not any ordinary tea party but one in a little thatched cottage / caravan on wheels parked in the foyer of The New Art Gallery - Walsall / Birmingham.
Yoke and Zoom the artists in residence aka Nina and Alex devised the idea of creating a mobile cottage industry after buying a 1957's caravan on ebay.
Now that the cottage has been created it is ready to tour as an ongoing artwork and they have set up a blog to show the journey.
www.yokeandzomminresidence.blogspot.com
Yoke and Zoom ask and question, 'The cottage questions the politics of home ownership, making its home in a public space, both in rural and urban environments.
Is the stability of the ideal home threatened by its possibility for sudden departure?
Does this cottage provide an example of micro-utopian situation that could be affordably duplicated?'
Personally having grown up with caravanning parents and remembering their first caravan not too dissimilar I felt at home, comforted and have always felt a caravan is a home away from home, having lived in a caravan, a van and traveled for years I’ve been shown home is where your heart is and your heart is in your body!!
It was a lovely tea party with great scones, jam and cream. We really enjoyed and by way of making it more of a magical experience, the others said you have to go and see the rest of the gallery which in itself is just awesome. So Vinny and I went up to the top floor and there in front of me was an exhibition of Ansel Adams best works.
I was totally blown away, his work up close was awe inspiring, his technical ability, his understanding of shadow and light, and his composition all the work of a master and here I was standing in front of large originals off the negative in awe just in awe. And what really hit me was a reminder of something I have understood about digital and film. There is such a big difference, film is textured and has tangible depth and digital is clinical made from pixels and modern. Both have a place and both are so very different, we must never loose film as we run into the digital age.
Ansel Adams works - I never thought I’d see his work in real life what an amazing experience and a total must for any budding photographer or lover of photography.
The exhibition goes on until the 31st of August http://www.artatwalsall.org.uk/

Ansel Adams (1902–1984)
