Climate Change Agnosticism

Well, the jury still seems to be out for me, which puts me in an interesting position as far as climate change goes. Reasonable doubt has been exacted, so I'm not sure how to think about it.

This film offers some interesting counter-points worth considering. It's DEFINITELY worth a watch. (ht)

Let me know what you think.

Six Months, Six Singles


It's Story time, which means you will get a story and have to GIVE a story (please).

Here is the challenge, list six songs that have affected your life in the last six months that you have recieved through different avenues. I want to share with you some of the music that I have found in the last six months, and how I found them. Since I am always looking, please do share.

1. 'Wasted One' by Cary Brothers - I found it because I heard a song by Cary Brothers on the TV show 'Grey's Anatomy'. I went onto itunes, found some other songs by the same artist, and voila, discovered a great collection of songs, but this one especially resonated with me.

2. 'Break the Same' by MuteMath - I heard a song of their's on the radio, 102.1 the Edge, and immediately dug the music. I went onto Itunes, grabbed the album, and this is my favourite song on it. I'm going to see them live in Toronto one week from tonight!

3. 'Jesusland' by Ben Folds - I listen to the Relevant Podcast and they had an interview with this guy. The song is just kind of cool, in a Christianity-is-lame sort of way.

4. 'Find Me Here' by The Silent - I was photographing a concert of theirs for Heritage Bible College, and really liked the music. Again, hopped onto itunes, picked up the album and this is my favourite on there.

5. 'You can Have it All' by Yo La Tengo - My sister Missy gave me the CD, and this is my favourite on the disc.

6. 'Edge of the Ocean [Duotone Mix]' by Ivy - A friend introduced me to Pandora, a free internet Radio service that lets you make custom stations based on the music you like. This song came up in the radio station I made that played songs similar to 'In the Waiting Line' by Zero 7.
