Food, Inc. - Hungry For Change? - movie trailer
I am really looking forward to seeing this and also to the ensuing publicity this film gets. Hopefully it will bring about changes to the intensive (read: harmful) farming operations that are all too common in our world.

If you can start the day without caffeine,
If you can get going without pep pills,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
If you can eat the same food everyday and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved ones are too
busy to give you any time.
If you can overlook it when those you love take it out on you,
If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
If you can ignore a friend's limited education and never correct him,
If you can resist treating a rich friend better than an poor friend,
If you can face the world without lies and deceit,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
If you can say honestly that deep in your heart you have no
prejudice against creed, color, religion or politics,
THEN, my friend, you are almost as good as your dog.

Inter-species connections #1
A young orphaned hippo adopts a 100 year old tortoise as mum
I love these stories, just as I love witnessing them in my own experience. Like when my cat would lay down to sleep beside my dog, just so beautiful to behold. A hippo and a tortoise. A cat and a crow. All of these magnificent bonds that defy our limited conceptions of what makes an animal tick...
