"Pink Frog," an animated short about a frog who surpasses his
potentials as a mere amphibian. |

MY REVIEWS of REGGAE (and OTHER) MUSIC
USEFUL LINKS! (for me) NEWS
& MEDIA
The Center for Public Integrity The Center for Public Integrity, a nonprofit, nonpartisan, tax-exempt organization, was founded by Charles Lewis following a successful 11-year career in network television news. The quality of the Center's work, in just over a decade, has firmly established the organization as an institutional presence in Washington, D.C. With our hard-earned reputation for "public service journalism," the Center is distinct from most other non-governmental organizations, because of our high-quality, well-documented, investigative research. Breaking News & Views for the Progressive Community. “America’s Best Political Newsletter.” A Pacifica program about current events and politics. A
collective of independent media organizations and journalists offering
grassroots, non-corporate coverage. NCM selects the best weekly stories from member media outlets. NCM is developing a unified network of Multi-Ethnic American media. Znet
A
community of people committed to social change. IMPORTANT
ORGANIZATIONS
Citizen Works is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization founded by Ralph Nader in April 2001 to advance justice by strengthening citizen participation in power. We give people the tools and opportunities to build democracy. Our strategy is to develop systemic means to advance the progressive citizen movement. We do this in three ways: First, we enhance the work of existing organizations by helping to share information, build coalitions, and institute improved mechanisms for banding activists together; second, we bring new energy and support to the progressive movement by recruiting, training, and activating citizens; and third, we start new groups and act as a catalyst where there are too few public interest voices. Green
Parties worldwide (duh!). RESOURCES FOR RESEARCH ON VARIOUS STUFFThe Brookings Institution is an independent, nonpartisan
organization devoted to research, analysis, education, and publication
focused on public policy issues in the areas of economics, foreign policy,
and government. The goal of the Institution's activities is to improve the
performance of American institutions and the quality of public policy by
using social science to analyze emerging issues and to offer practical
approaches to those issues in language aimed at the general public. NOTE
TO SELF: This site has interesting stuff, but keep in mind that some of the
CEOs on their Board of Trustees are corporate heavyweights. The Center for Media
and Public Affairs CMPA is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization. They provide critical and scientific analyses of media coverage. The Society for the
Psychological Study of Social Issues SPSSI is an international group of over 3500 psychologists, allied scientists, students, and others who share a common interest in research on the psychological aspects of important social issues. In various ways, the Society seeks to bring theory and practice into focus on human problems of the group, the community, and nations, as well as the increasingly important problems that have no national boundaries. PEOPLE IN POWERThe Codex Alimentarius Commission The Codex Alimentarius Commission was created in 1963 by FAO and WHO to develop food standards, guidelines and related texts such as codes of practice under the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme. [This is an international body that regulates food trade, food standards, and even food names I think]. The National Governors Association A public policy organization that calls itself the “collective voice of the nation’s governors.” It’s like getting all 50 of them together in the same room! “Official non-partisan organization for cities with populations exceeding 30000.” And you thought the NGA was a Big Top affair. Can you believe it? You can download free publications. It’s like a window into the mind of globalization. PERSONAL INTERESTA
good site covering Asian Americans and Asian American issues. Whatever
you want to know about the heritage of Jamaican music. Profiles of reggae
artists, lyrics to popular songs, and even background info on history and
philosophy. Are
you ready to have your world rocked and your sense of reality drastically
altered? If not, you better choose the blue pill and stay the hell out of
Universo’s.
