The documentary exposes the decisions of the National Academy of Sciences, funded and influenced by corporate interests, they determine scientific policies which can make or break studies, revealing sometimes skewed results which the food corporations want you to hear. I liked how they showed several cases of diabetes and high cholesterol, after undergoing nutritional counseling and dietary rehabilitation, the patients underwent a “life-saving experience” improving their health and quality of life. “Let food be your medicine” said Hippocrates, considered by many as the father of modern medicine.

A life saver, this fast-paced documentary flows with essential disease preventing information, no boring moments. Kudos to these scientists for dedicating their lives to uncovering the truth and having the courage to stand up and make this movie. They’ve made eating a plant based diet, smart and cool. As the vegan firefighter said while CLIMBING UP the pole: “Real men eat plants”…

“Where The Mind Is Without Fear” by Rabindranath Tagore

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

The Apple Mac computer revolutionized the graphic arts industry, my own career as a graphic artist took off when the Mac computer made it possible for me to learn how to use the operating system and art programs in a very short time. The music industry was also changed back when you could buy a Mac as a MIDI sequencer connected to an Emulator Sampler creating a digital audio workstation for around $15,000 Dlls., instead of having to buy a very expensive Fairlight CMI (Computer Musical Instrument) or a New England Digital Synclavier Digital Audio System for $100,000 Dlls. More recently, in the midst of the Napster era, which badly affected the music industry, Steve invited recording companies to join his iTunes Store project to legally distribute music downloads and save musician’s royalties. The list goes on… video editing, writers, publishers, designers, regular pedestrians with iPods. In short, the man had a talent for design and realizing his vision. His influence will be felt for many years to come. Our deepest condolences to his family and associates at Apple. let us celebrate his spirit and contributions… Hare Krishna.

After several failed attempts, I put off learning this Dreamweaver beast for years until yesterday, thanks to this tutorial “Dreamweaver for GoLive Users” by Sheri German, and expert in Dreamweaver, technology education, eLearning, Fireworks, Photoshop, design and typography.

More good tips, and video tutorials can be found on this Adobe Dreamweaver support section “Migrating from GoLive to Dreamweaver.” Hopefully we can break the barrier and get back to feeling in control of our web tools. I can always go back to using GoLive or ImageReady to design visually if I get stuck, but I love a good challenge
