Making Noise



Today,

Find Rhythm

Poetry

Lately

The beginning , the middle, the end
an easy guideline yet
hard to follow.
Water down the dripping of time
water down the intensity still snares
a crash.
We ride along and coast
hard times equating merry ones
into an irremovable energy of
fate, free will or more?
An entanglement ensues
past and present;
time intervening into each other
for what?
This quickly glimpsed notion of security,
an outreach of love
to be shared
to be grown upon
and spread.

The Innocence Project

Too many are being incarcerated and put to death because of prejudice and faulty evidence. Educate yourself, help end this cycle now!

The West Memphis Three

DNA evidence could prove that three boys, now men, did not commit the crimes with which they have been charged. One is on death row, two are serving life sentences.

Zeitgeist Source Book

I wanted to alert you to my latest effort - I hope you enjoy it, and please feel free to pass it around.

In collaboration with Peter Joseph, creator of the "ZEITGEIST" series of films, I have composed a 105-page free ebook for your edification with many new sources backing up the first/religion part of the first ZG movie.

In fact, this brand-new document includes a bibliography with over 150 sources, nearly 350 citations, and some 80 illustrations! The sources are largely primary sources and the writings of credentialed authorities in relevant fields.

You can read about the source book and download your free copy here:

Enjoy!

Oil Debate Spills Into Academe

Within three days of the BP oil spill, Joe Griffit was out in the Gulf of Mexico taking water samples to begin assessing the damage. As an assistant professor of coastal sciences at the University of Southern Mississippi, Griffit says he’s been eager to assist in the restoration efforts taking shape in the region. So when lawyers representing BP came to Griffit with an offer -- help us assess the damage and find a way to restore what’s been destroyed -- Griffit says the option was “initially very attractive” to him and some of his colleagues.

Black Wave: The Legacy of the Exxon Valdez


A film about the impact of the Exxon Valdez oil spill will be shown Aug. 5 in downtown Pensacola. Directed by Robert Cornellier, "Black Wave, the Legacy of the Exxon Valdez" examines the impact of the millions of gallons of crude oil spilled near Cordova, Alaska, in 1989. The Alaskan Exxon Valdez spill was the largest environmental catastrophe in North America until it was eclipsed by the April 20 Deepwater Horizon spill. The free show is set for 7 p.m. Aug. 5 at Sluggo’s, a vegan restaurant at 101 S. Jefferson St. in downtown Pensacola.


Quotations

All tremble at punishment.
Life is dear to all.
Put yourself in the place of others;
kill none nor have another killed.
