Young Man Follows His Heart and Dream with Creative Resignation Letter on a Cake!

quoted from www. business insider.com:

"Man Brilliantly Quits His Job To Pursue Dream Job 

with Resignation Letter Written On A Cake"

"If you're going to quit your job to pursue your dream job of making cakes for a living, then writing your resignation letter on a cake is definitely the right move.

The cake notes that it's the person's 31st birthday, and that he realizes how precious life is, so he wants to do a job that lets him spend more time with his family, while pursuing something he's actually interested in.

Note the bottom of the cake has a nice plug for his business, so this is great marketing as well:

So, my brother-in-law has resigned from his 9-to-5 job in spectacular  

fashion. Jerry Maguire meets Masterchef. twitter.com/ee_stu/status/…

Charlie Chaplin's Great Dictator's Final Speech (Oct.1940) - A Message for All Humanity

from: Tragedyand Hope YouTube channel - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsgaFKwUA6g

Charlie Chaplin's Great Dictator's Final Speech

""Speak - it is our only hope" "Hope -
I'm sorry but I don't want to be an Emperor - that's not my business - I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible, Jew, gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another, human beings are like that.
We all want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone and the earth is rich and can provide for everyone.
The way of life can be free and beautiful.
But we have lost the way.
Greed has poisoned men's souls -
has barricaded the world with hate;
has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.
We have developed speed but we have shut ourselves in:
machinery that gives abundance has left us in want.
Our knowledge has made us cynical,
our cleverness hard and unkind.
We think too much and feel too little:
More than machinery we need humanity;
More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness.
Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.
The airplane and the radio have brought us closer together.
The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, cries out for universal brotherhood for the unity of us all.
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, millions of despairing men, women and little children, victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
To those who can hear me I say "Do not despair".
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress: the hate of men will pass and dictators die and the power they took from the people , will return to the people and so long as men die [now] liberty will never perish. . .
Soldiers - don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you and enslave you - who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel, who drill you, diet you, treat you as cattle, as cannon fodder.
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts. You are not machines.
You are not cattle.
You are men.
You have the love of humanity in your hearts.
You don't hate - only the unloved hate.
Only the unloved and the unnatural.
Soldiers - don't fight for slavery, fight for liberty.
In the seventeenth chapter of Saint Luke it is written "the kingdom of God is within man "
- not one man, nor a group of men - but in all men - in you, the people.
You the people have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness.
You the people have the power to make life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
Then in the name of democracy let's use that power - let us all unite.
Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a chance to work, that will give you the future and old age and security.
By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power, but they lie.
They do not fulfil their promise, they never will.
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people.
Now let us fight to fulfil that promise.
Let us fight to free the world, to do away with national barriers, do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.
 Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
Soldiers - in the name of democracy, let us all unite!
. . .
Look up! Look up!
The clouds are lifting - the sun is breaking through.
We are coming out of the darkness into the light.
We are coming into a new world.
A kind new world where men will rise above their hate and brutality.
The soul of man has been given wings - and at last he is beginning to fly.
He is flying into the rainbow - into the light of hope - into the future, that glorious future that belongs to you, to me and to all of us.
Look up. Look up."

Does Processed Food Addict and Ultimately Kill Us?

Big Food Corporations Are Making The World Fat

Packaged food sales are exploding with world obesity
from: "Big Food Corporations Are Making The World Fat - 12.21.12"

the above chart and below comment are from the following highly recommended article: http://www.businessinsider.com/big-food-corporations-are-making-the-world-fat-2012-12

NotSheeple on Dec 21, 8:15 PM said:

The single biggest contributer to FAT is MSG in all its many forms (24 or so, headings). It causes a hyper-pancreatic response that dumps insulin into the system, causing mass fat storage and diabetes type 2. It has to be the single most widely used ingredient besides corn derivatives, it is in 90% of food, on the shelf, or in restaurants. Here is a good example, you get more insulin, and fat storage from one small lunchbox sized bag of Doritos than you do from a 12x12, 2 layer, box of chocolates. To top it all off, light products have way more MSG than regular products, sometimes on the label 4-5 times (kraft ranch dressing, Kraft light ranch). This is slightly nefarious, by consuming light products you are more likely to gain weight and get type 2 diabetes, and then you consume more light products to lose that extra weight you just gained, etc etc. It should be banned from ALL food, because it doesnt stop there, MSG is also a neurotoxin (excitotoxin class), and does weird things to the brain (hence the headache side effect). It is extremely addictive, studies have shown that rats will consume MSG over any other drug, including opiates, nicotine, meth, crack, etc etc. Have you ever been full, but still cant stop reaching for that next Dorito? It is literally addiction, cleverly disguised, and explained away as binge eating, or overconsumption. I will say quite frankly, it is a evil nasty drug, that they put in all food to make you fat, make you addicted, and make you sick, one could even call it "soft kill" weapon technology, as the food industry, and pharmaceutical companies know exactly how it works. What do you think they give lab rats when they are fattening them up for experiments...MSG. Time for the public to stop being lab rats.
