How I Quit Smoking In Just 6 Long Months

This was one of the most difficult experiences in my life so far, but once I realized that a lot of the addiction is simply in your head, and that money was literally going up in smoke I decided to change my ways. I had tried a few times to quit before of course, but this time was a little different. First of all, I had a nasty cold and my throat was pretty tore up. Every hit that I would take was actually a bit painful and so I thought to myself, "why the hell am I torturing myself like this?" Not to mention at the time, I was half broke and couldn't really afford the nasty addiction in the first place, I just decided now was the time. I set it in my mind that I was never going to smoke again... it wasn't going to be an easy thing to do, but anything is possible. I mean wasn't there a time in my life when I didn't smoke cigarettes? So the first couple days were pretty horrible as you may expect, but I realized that this addiction was mostly all in my thought processes/habits and all I really needed to do was keep my mind occupied. Video games, plants, rolling coins, TV, exercise, pacing, literally anything to keep me from thinking about it. Now sure this was not very easy at all, but it is possible, anything and everything is possible. One of the things I noticed that what makes it difficult for a lot of people to quit is that there always seems to be all kinds of other smokers around you, but hey you need to embrace that, if anything you should think of the smoke as a good thing... at least you get a little of that sweet, sweet, nicotine right? So the more I thought about it the more I became conscious of the fact that I could beat this thing, I mean every day without smoking was another small victory, and soon every battle became easier and easier. Hey, like the title says it took me about 6 months to stop thinking about it all together, but I made it, and there are millions of other people out there that have quit too! So what I hope you can get out of this is that all you need to do is make that decision in your head that you are going to quit, and that you can quit... give yourself a reason to quite smoking cigarettes, and then try to keep your mind occupied as much as possible the first few days/weeks... even plan some stuff ahead of time. Know that it will not be a cake walk, but hey is anything these days? So what are you waiting for, "put out that smoke and breath some air..."

Religous Groups Are Even Catching On

This video from the weather channel show some of the different ways the religious groups are getting involved and spreading the word about what is happening to our planet. It is good to see the science is finally starting to win the battle here. I have read numerous articles lately about Exxon Mobile paying scientists to dispute climate change and it is really disheartening.

People though are waking up and seeing these changes for themselves though. I mean just look at this "winter" that we have had this year. I personally have never seen anything like it! I had new mum plants springing up from the ground in my backyard around Christmas and no snow what so ever here in Michigan. Plus it was just released yesterday that 2006 was the warmest year on record. These type of stories are starting to hit the front page and I say keep them coming... you can only fool the people for so long!

The Earth, The Earth, The Earth is on Fire



Increasing intensity of storms, droughts, wildfires, heat wave, rising sea levels... These are not the predictions of climate change, these occurrences all happened just in the last year. Please watch as Ross Gelbspan, the Pulitzer Prize winning author of “Boiling Point” discusses what must be done now to curb climate change and save humanity from it's own ignorance. Scientists are being paid by oil and coal companies to try and debunk what is a scientific fact. You can see proof of that here.

Climate change is happening right now and if action is not taken our children will be living in a much different world... Remember with the strength of the people anything can be accomplished!

Inventor Of Water Powered Car Murdered?

This was an amazing video that was just released today on Google Video. This man Stan Meyer's built a car that runs entirely on water. The car gets 100 miles to the gallon, which is just astonishing. Well, what do you think happened to this earth changing inventor.... hmm the man was allegedly poisoned, and died in 1998. Later that week all of his equipment and the car that he created has stolen and never recovered. Stan Meyer's had spoken repeatedly about how he was being threatened by oil companies, but refused to bow to their wishes of abandoning the project.



You can learn more about Stan
here or you can just google his name. You can view the actual patent here. Please show this video to as many people as you can before it is pulled from google video. It is really sad that the technology is already here in our world we just can't use it, because of our government and oil companies do everything in their power to keep it off of the market.



Wake up people before it is too late...

You can check out how oil companies and The White House deceive us right now here and here, or learn about who killed the electric car here or just watch the video below.

It's The End Of The World



Greenpeace had it right all along... I just found this video today, but it was first released in the 90s. Sad that nothing has really been accomplished since then at least here in the good old USA.

You can find out more about Greenpeace here.

White House Censors Global Warming Info



This video shows how we are being mislead by the White House and our government in general. Come on people wake up, the evidence has become overwhelming and we still stand by and do nothing! We are simply letting the oil industry control our politics and therefore our environmental policies. Something is very wrong with this picture...

You can see more video proof here.

Spreading The Wealth


The rich get richer and the poor stay the same. This has been a fact of life in our world for a very long time now. A new study just came out that shows that 2% of the world population owns more than half of the world's wealth! That is just a staggering number and do you know what, it's not going to change. You see it really takes money to make money. These rich people have their money working for them. They invest in such things as stocks, bonds, real estate and anything else they can get their hands on. Stocks that pay dividends and bonds have guaranteed returns on investment to where there is little or no risk at all. They can just sit there and watch as their money compounds interest and rack in dividend payments and yes they can live off of just this alone. Then you have the rest of us working day to day just to pay the mortgage and other expenses and what does our government do... more tax breaks for the rich, that sure seems like it will help the average American. Isn't it time that the 98% of the population stand up for itself and demand a change? Or do you think that a small sliver of the population should be controlling the direction our world is headed?
