#2 – oz business bit

a) good brew related...

deano just got his hands on a bike:

It will get its first public appearance at the SLF (Sustainable Living Foundation) AGM.
http://www.slf.org.au/
free beer tastings directly from the bike:)

SLF is a great organisation.. if you are interested in meeting some future thinkers get to the AGM.

There was also a short article and some photos of me & bike in Mondays Moreland Leader....click here while the link lasts..

b) oz related....

how about ANZ pulling out of the papermill huh?
people power..destabilising traditional bullshit industries... hooray!!
but it's not over yet.
I just donated $25 to bury the pulp mill idea once and for all...
(paper should come from old paper, hemp or at a dodgy pinch.. plantation monocultured forests)
(NOT OLD GROWTH!!)

support getup... they are supporting us:)

help getup.org.au dissuade all other financiers.. (the're arguments are sound.. you can't make money with prehistoric business practices anymore)

#3 - world business bit:
Hey, hey... we're still lucky first worlders!!...

I just saw this photo on a friends facebook wall...
these monks smell kinda funky
interesting pic showing Chinese Military donning Tibetan Monk's robes before going on to riot n cause trouble disguised as monks.....we should all probably circulate stuff like this...

and it made me think of how the Burmese are still getting royally (or militarily) screwed....
I have been reading about different ways to help.... this sounds to me STILL to be the most effective..Avaaz have almost given 1.5 million euros directly to monks which is pretty sweet...

Avaaz says:
.
Humanitarian relief is urgently needed, but Burma's government could easily delay, divert or misuse any aid.
Today the International Burmese Monks Organization, including many leaders of the democracy protests last fall, launched a new effort to provide relief through Burma's powerful grass roots network of monasteries—the most trusted institutions in the country and currently the only source of housing and support in many devastated communities. Click below to help the Burmese people with a donation and see a video appeal to Avaaz from a leader of the monks:
