On Boycotting Walmart
"We just find it easier to hate a rich man than to love a poor person with our actual resources and energy. Most people who rail against how the mega-corps are exploiting human life try to put a stick in the spokes of the mega-corps rather than trying to meet the urgent needs of the poor that made them willing to exploit themselves as cheap laborers. The "machine" may need to be dismantled, but it needs to be done with caution, because its moving parts are human lives."
-from The Apparent Project; "Haiti Wants Some Sweatshops"

November 9th
In honour of what would have been my Dad's 51st birthday, a posting of a random artifact from his life:
A coupon I found as a bookmark in a book from my Dad's things. Good for 12 cents off applie pie, it expired December 31st, 1978, when my dad lived in Ottawa (notice the Rideau Kiwanis on the coupon) and was 19 years old.
The book. It has alot of habits in it that my Dad used to talk about doing, like clearing your desk of paperwork and doing the most important thing first.

the invisible world of water
Hello, My name is Ceriodaphnia and I am a Cladoceran. I live in freshwater, but you can't see me without the help of a microscope. My body is transparent so you can see my organs. Aren't I cute?
