For the last few years, since my cat Mia had been adopted from the humane society, I watched the society from outside and it saddened me to see that the animals are in such bad shape. Some of you readers already knew the story of Mia, my cat, which I will not repeat here. I am only very happy that she and her daughter is very happy with me since 2005.
Please if you have a place for a loving pet(s) at your home, or heart for them if you can possible, please take home a loving animal that suit your needs from your local humane society.
I love my fishes, but I do hear quite a bit lately about sushi bad rep. Issues includes: sushi fish identified as the wrong type of fishes. 85% of restaurants served Instead of red snapper, they mostly served tilapia. via Consumerist
Unless you know how fishes looks like, you don't even know what they taste or look like at the end product. For sushi lover like me, the only feel tools I do have would be: my pallet, pictures of the fishes and instincts of how these fishes taste. Another example: Wild Pacific salmon turns out to be farmed Atlantic salmon. via thestar.com

I brought a hi-def TV and HDMI cable and more to come later. I also upgrade my Internet service and have my TV cable service with the Internet subscription. More money drain out! Why are these in packages I wonder at times? Yikes! At the same time, I also have a personal ordeal, in which it could not come in the worst time! I wonder why they all come in 3s. Somehow my third thing came in a disguise of a blessing, its better to take care of your own being, soul, spirit and mind so that you will feel a complete person. Let us not continue stop growing and continue to explore our own selves and look at ourselves though service.
I can see this research with some merit, but at the same time, could I dare to say, not everyone acts or behaves that way. I would not go and think about the consequences everyday, but what does steal or lie or what does being green really have to do with the research? Unless you lie to the researcher, or it is hip to be green, or its a trend to be green with the people around you.. Are you having some societal pressures for being green, so that you are resorting to lie? I do not really understand, I hope someone can post some answers. Thanks:)
I really have to say, wash your vegetables and clean it throughout. Nothing are foolproof! Btw, does the FDA knows what the USDA does?
Today is Blog Action Day for Climate Change. I wished every single day would be awareness for climate change. For a while already, I did not use the word, "global warming". Why? If you read my blog entries in the past, you will know that the climate each year have been warm one day, the next cold, the next storming or chaos. Now lets get to the ways we can keep our Earth happy yet enjoy our lives.
Lately I came across the freecycle group, some are really good stuff, some really were I wished, didn't end up in freecycle, but to let you know what they have: eg: a baby stroller, a stack of magazines, a series of cords for computers?, past issues of magazines, and more you can imagine.
A few more ideas: I find that 2nd hand stores can be a good find if you keep going in devotion, and sometimes you can get brand new stuff from there, according to some devoted customers. Those aren't the best but at least they are in 2nd hand. Do you like gardening? If you can garden your own food, it would be the best. You can compost your own garbage for the soil for the garden. For you gardeners, you know what to do!
If not, here is a start guide. After your food are grown, there are 50 ways to remind you how not to waste your food!
Enjoy!
Ideas that shocked the world are not really shocking @ all. I think what we should note: end aid to Africa is not a new idea at all. Ending long term aid would be a goal,but far from ideal for some countries now.
I don't know the idea of autistics would be appealing to most people. Personally, I think some merit must be placed on their ability to choose what they would like to pursue instead. IT fields usually called as ideal for autistics, but I cannot conclude all are created the same. Lets those folks decide for themselves.
Human cloning: I would like to say, I am not too keen on human cloning, I am more into the idea of: Cryonics.
In terms of taking risks, it all depends on your own personality and your situations or your disposition! Are there ever such a term as: smart risk? I wish!
Privacy is an illusion! I don't know how to break this news at first! When you enter to your apartment building, if you do live in one, you are being monitored! How about when you head to your office building each and every day of the working week? The security cameras! Yet again! In the big cities, I don't know about yours, but in downtown Toronto, there are security cameras in parts of Toronto, and its part of our daily lives. In parts of London, England, its part of their lives too! I don't know how we can stop this invasion yet or there are ways to stop it besides signing petitions! I would say, despite of these measures, sometimes, there isn't a feeling that I do feel any safer. Do anyone feel safer? I still at times, have to look behind my back and be as alert as I should be!
