For those interested in recycling cell / mobile phones, I recommend www.CollectiveGood.com and / or www.greenphone.com You get free shipping, and you can either do it support a charity, or do it to get paid fast. The company is also a leader in proper recycling of the materials collected - NOT an e-waste exporter...

Recent comment on Asparagus! (A Stalk-umentary):
I enjoyed the Asparagus video. It shows how important small farms are to America and how out of balance some of our trade policies are. I live in an area where garlic is grown locally - but the supermarket has peeled garlic in plastic bags that was grown and shipped from China - it just doesn't make sense.

i really was intruiged by this film, it allowed me to further understand the complexities that is self-image and verbalizaiton among the non-white community in regards to their features and perceptions.
Personally, i consider myself hispanic; but i have been called or assumed by other people to be "mixed" "half-and half" and/or even "bengali" or south asian. Growing up in a large family of carribean hispanics i always loved the rainbow assortment of relatives i had, ironicly it was only when i started school and had a more frequent interaction with non-minorities from different back-grounds that my racial ambiguity or confuison became an issue, for them not me. If i had a nickle for every time i was asked "what are you" from the ages 5 to 15 i'd be rich. None the less, i have come to define my self love not neccessarily by my physical attributes in comparison to other people, but in regards to my family as a whole and my healthyness.
I have long, brownish hair. with blondish bits in it, i have dark brown eyes and freckles and moles, my skin is the color of my mother's "cafe con leche" [a coffe drink with hot milk in it]
my hips are the
shape of something rhythmic and my nose has my father's native touch to it. I am dominican, nicaraguan, puerto-rican, british and black.i was born in america, love my brown skin, love all brown people and wish they would see how beautiful and unique they are.
