<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I stumbled upon this<span style="font-family: inherit;"> <a href="http://thesourcefilm.org/about.aspx">blog</a> this morning. The Source Project is described on the site as "<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: none; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">a self-funded venture looking to create media that positively connect and communicate some of the most important issues being faced by our environment and as a result by our societies and cultures". The focus is particularly on agriculture and its centrality to life in general. The blog looks at the links and webs created between agriculture, environment, health, resources, culture, work and security, and has incredible photographs of farmers from India to Uganda. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black;">One of the thing I really noticed when we were travelling, is that p<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: none; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">olitical activism is so ingrained in many cultures, in comparison to in Australia. People were so upfront about issues of farming and access to resources. When we first arrived in Chile last October, there were two protests within our first three days, one was the continuing protest about privatisation of education in Chile, the other initially to do with "Columbus Day" which is the equivalent to "Invasion Day" (Or Australia Day), where the Indigenous Mupache staged a huge rally bringing attention to their status in Chilean society. Unfortunately both of these deteriorated very quickly, with cannons of tear gas blasting the crowds. We wandered around in the aftermath later in the day, as we stayed on a street in Santiago that had a number of multinational banks that were targeted. Locals were half joking that it was a great time to be in the window business- as the whole street had piles of shattered glass all along the footpaths and gutters, but also seemed bemused and angry at yet another protest that had gotten quickly out of control</span></span><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: none; background-color: white; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">.</span></span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: none; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"> When we were in Bolivia, Peru and Ecuador, these issues were also highly apparent, as the farmers held a number of protests while we were travelling through the area- highlighting the Brazilian government's plans to sell off more of the Amazon for roads, mining and agribusiness. The flow-on effects are immense and affect so many people in the area.</span></span></div>felicityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05470834114324548549noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-994270770141439790.post-81417165375787969192012-05-02T09:55:00.000+10:002012-05-02T10:08:58.906+10:00i'm back!!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Helloooo world! So I'm finally blogging here again after 6 months of updating our "<a href="http://www.felicityandsam.blogspot.com/">excellent adventure</a>", it's been awhile, I've seen a bit more of Earth, but glad to be back in the Hunter... We saw some pretty incredible places on our whirl-wind holiday of the Americas, so to ease back into blogging, I'm listening to Paul Kelly's greatest hits and rounding up my favourite photos from blogworld in memory of our roadtrip around the USA desert where we stayed in cheap motels, hung out at the Sourdough Saloon in Beatty Nevada, and chatted with a Navajo guy who made incredible jewellery and dream catchers tht he sold on the side of the road on the way to the Grand Canyon....<br />
<br />
First up is <span style="font-size: 13px; text-align: center;"> </span><a href="http://spellsjewellery.blogspot.com.au/" style="font-size: 13px; text-align: center;">Spell and the Gypsy Collective</a> ... an amazing amazing blog, from what I can gather, these girls hail from up near Byron Bay, and put together beautiful jewellery, clothes, shoes and some decorative items....<br />

<a href="http://www.delightfully-tacky.com/">Delighfully Tacky</a> has always been a go-to read for me, I like Elizabeth's quirky, honest, personal posts about everything and anything...I was so keen to visit Tacoma when we did our road-trip because she made it sound like such a great place to drop by and try different micro-brews and ride bikes around... unfortunately the weather was incredibly awful when were in the area- the Arctic temperatures we had received while in Whistler pushed all the snow down Seattle way and the whole of washington and oregon seemed to be at a standstill... but here's a couple of photos that helped inspire our roadtrip around the states.<br />

Although, for some strange reason, I seem to have had more hits while I've not been posting, so maybe I should take that as a sign? haha...</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: inherit;">Anyway, as you might know from previous posts, I've recently completed a law degree, BUT in order to graduate I have to do a 4 month placement... Which has been a nightmare trying to organise... So how it works is, you have to approach a business/law firm/NGO whatever, and beg them to take you on full-time/part-time/for free so that you can be admitted into the NSW Supreme Court... so I guess that's all very well for people who know a solicitor, or who studied hard and got excellent marks, but for the rest of us plebs, you're basically slave labour.... Anyway, so I've been travelling back and forth from Newcastle to Sydney, volunteering at a refugee casework place, which has been really really interesting...but wait for it, I started a real, PAYING job this week at a local council, which has also been a learning experience... so WOOHOO, the end is in sight for this placement, and I will soon be an admitted solicitor!</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: inherit;">Anyway, so enough with the life update and onto movies I recommend you see ASAP... It's funny I haven't watched films in a long time, I've been really really geeky and watched endless TV series, (which i think i will make the subject of a future post....mmmm...) (geeky because after I watched all 4 seasons of Battlestar Gallactica, I've been trying out all other types of Sci Fi, so stay tuned!)... anyway, so I hadn't seen any movies in ages, and then suddenly all these awesome ones were out and I've been luck enough to watch them!</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
<br />
</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><b>So last night I went to the Sydney Film Festival</b>...<span style="color: black;"> </span>Anyway, I went with 3 of my best friends in the world after we ate dinner at Spice I am in Surry Hills, to...wait for it...</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

</div><div style="font-family: inherit;">But anyway, I digress as usual... Even the Rain, was a beautiful thought-provoking movie. I remember studying the IMF/World bank's privatization of water in Bolivia, and the riots and peasant protests against the 'structural adjustment policy', but as it happens, I had forgotten. I guess that's what happens, another riot or natural disaster supersedes whatever the last catastrophe was, and you just forget that the events are still important in the minds of those who were involved. Anyway, I don't want to give too much away, but suffice to say, the landscapes are lush, tropical and beautiful, and the city is dusty and dry at the beginning, then a gritty urban war zone by the end.</div><div style="font-family: inherit;"><br />

It is filmed more like a documentary than a movie, and I came away thinking how amazing the local guy Daniel (played by <span id="movieSynopsisRemaining">Carlos Aduviri) was. He was incredible, and heart-wrenching in the role, and I wouldn't be surprised if there were more than a few tears at the end of it!

It wasn't a follow on per se, but basically it is 5 years after a NASA probe which was carrying alien samples crashed upon re-entry to the atmosphere, and there is a huge 'infected' zone between Mexico and the United States which has been quarantined off, as the aliens now live in the jungle there.<br />
<br />
I know it sounds far fetched, but I think that it was really realistic portrayal of how something like that would play out- you know how non-native species (weeds) take over the natural plants and animals as they have no predators to cull them, well this was a similar sort of thing, except that the non-native species happened to be from a different planet. Anyway, so this rich girl is in Central America, and her father has asked his employee, a seasoned photo-journalist to get her back to the States safely.<br />
Anyway, events happen and they miss the ferry back to the USA and have to travel through the infected zone....<br />

</tbody></table> It has beautiful scenery and landscapes, and it made me so keen to go on our trip to Central America, despite the aliens that live there.... haha.<br />
So yeah definitely see this movie, it's not your usual aliens are attacking lets blow everything up movie, it is a much more realistic, and therefore scary portray of what could happen when science fucks up....<br />

<b>City Island </b>Ok well i watched this a while back, but I just want to shout my praises, because it is so so funny, in a weird/black comedy/morbid way, which is exactly my humour. So if you are easily offended by non-conformist family roles, don't watch it. The basic run-down is something like this. Hot guy gets bailed from jail by the prison warden, who happens to be his dad but he doesn't realise this. The dad hasn't told anyone that he had a child before he married current wife. The paroled son moves into the boat shed at their house, then both the mum and daughter want to have their way with him (well. sort of.), the son has a fetish for larger ladies, and the dad is an aspiring actor...anyway, I thought i loved it, and would definitely recommend it.</div>felicityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05470834114324548549noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-994270770141439790.post-10340245720643403822011-04-29T08:02:00.000+10:002011-04-29T08:02:52.190+10:00Pictures that caught my eye this morning...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.designspongeonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/1_rick.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.designspongeonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/1_rick.jpg" /></a></div><a href="http://www.designspongeonline.com/2011/04/sneak-peek-jimmie-martin-rick-schultz.html">From Design*Sponge</a><br />

</div> I have to agree with the disgusting statement. The whole thing makes me want to throw up, but I can't look away, and I want to keep looking at it... Its like giving birth to an adult, or a lab has grown the person or something....It makes me think that perhaps human cloning ain't such a grand idea at all if this could be the outcome of it....!felicityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05470834114324548549noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-994270770141439790.post-18798763515772434232011-02-26T09:32:00.003+11:002011-02-26T09:42:39.151+11:00Soundwave Sydney 2011 what to see....So the festival that all lovers of metal and punk and hardcore wait for all year in Australia is upon us again! After last year's fiasco, where we were stuck in the car park for 3 hours trying to leave after a day that was in the high thirties with no free water in the back of beyond that is Eastern Creek in Western Sydney (EW) being the adopted North Shore girl that I am I refused point blank to even buy a ticket because I was not crossing the great divide back over to Penrith (or wherever Easter Creek actually is...far far away).<br />
<br />
But great news!! <a href="http://www.soundwavefestival.com/node/96453">Soundwave Sydney </a>is now at Sydney Olympic Stadium so much more convenient, and it has a lay-out that everyone knows because it is the homeland of the <a href="http://bigdayout.com/">Big Day Out</a> festival woohoo double plus! Although, if they have $6 bottles of water like they did at No Sleep Til Sydney festival I may swear off festivals FOREVER. Big Threat. and only after I go to <a href="http://www.bluesfest.com.au/pages/?ParentPageID=11&PageID=81">Blues Fest</a> in Byron bay in April. (There are still tickets for the Tuesday to see...wait for it.. Bob Dylan, Tim Finn, Paul Kelly, Grace Jones....!!!)<br />
<br />
Anyway, without anymore further ado, here is the cream of the crop in my opinion of the Sydney timetable/line up for Sunday's Soundwave festival... And yes, of course I've included my favourite songs from each band :)<br />
<br />
<b>First clash of the day:</b><br />
<b>2.20-3pm Millencolin on Stage 3 OR 2.20-3pm Terror on Stage 6</b> <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/A4Ee8OWpmqA?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe> <iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/YYgFnLfDJMI?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
How do you decide between these two stellar bands? Well it's going to be hard. <a href="http://www.millencolin.com/index3.html">Millencolin</a>, with their infectious punk show will be the best chance for a sing along all day, and what's not to love about Swedish punk? However, if you really can't decide, there would be the chance to see them play with Pennywise on <a href="http://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=PENNYWIS11&v=URH&searchId=8f182a78-697d-4308-ac0c-97e021d0bd43">Monday night at the Roundhouse at UNSW</a>, which I am very very tempted to do! So i guess <a href="http://www.pickrset.com/keepersofthefaith/">Terror</a> with their massive massive hardcore sound will win out on the day, particularly because they are playing on a really small stage, so there is likely to be a decent circle pit started, which are hilarious to watch as long as you don't get a kick to the head in the process!!<br />
<br />
<b>3 - 3.55pm </b><br />
Go and stand in a line and buy some over priced mid-strength beer, (no more than 2 per person) and talk about how awesome Terror/millencolin was...<br />
<br />
<b>3.55- 4.25pm Primus Stage 2</b><br />
Well. To be honest for me Primus is a filler. I know, I know, how could I admit that and post it on the internet... <b> </b>But it will be fun, just for their mad bass playing, and to hear classic songs like 'Winona's big Brown beaver' .... ....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/aYDfwUJzYQg?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
<br />
<b>4.30pm- 5.20pm SLASH!!! Stage 1</b><br />
Well as long as he plays Sweet Child o Mine I think we'll all die happy!<br />
Apologies for the quality of this clip, Youtube has some shockers.... <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/omenJWY0sKM?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
<br />
<b>5.20-6pm The Amity Affliction Stage 6</b><br />
This is going to be HUGE.... They are an awesome Brissy band that have had major airplay on Triple J this year...Here's a link to their song Fruity Lexia... yup. they named their song after a <a href="http://www.liquorhomedelivery.com.au/showProduct/WINE_CASKS/4L+CASKS/21042">carton of goon</a> you drink when you are 16 at parties and split between 3 of your friends.... *shudder*....now that is hardcore... <br />
<b></b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><object class="BLOGGER-youtube-video" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" data-thumbnail-src="http://0.gvt0.com/vi/k0Lu_SmIuZg/0.jpg" height="266" width="320"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/k0Lu_SmIuZg&fs=1&source=uds" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" /><embed width="320" height="266" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/k0Lu_SmIuZg&fs=1&source=uds" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></object></div><br />
<b> 5.40-6.40pm Slayer Stage 4</b><br />
Now the other big decision of the day will be whether to cut the viewing of Amity Affliction short so you can see the entire Slayer set, or only catch 40 minutes of Slayer. Again it's a tough choice... but my vote is on staying for the whole Amity Affliction set, because I have a feeling they will be as tight as Parkway Drive,and when it comes down to it... I'll choose hardcore over metal any day..... Although... SLAYER.... ah. they'll be back! And my favourite song for your hearing pleasure- South of Heaven of course!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/BwLtTa2trRs?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
<br />
<b>6.10-6.55pm One Day as a Lion Stage 1</b><br />
Yes. Dammit another freaking clash. Whoever organises these line-ups is some sort of joker. So after you've seen Slayer, you'll have to RUN across to the other side of Olymic Park to try and squeeze in the end of Zack de la Rocha's successor band to Rage Against the machine. I mean seriously. Who in their right mind would organise a festival timetable this poorly. Ar. As much as I would love to see this whole set, after I would have already cut short Slayer to see the whole Amity Affliction set, i can't justify cutting it even shorter to see Zack play. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/6mKtt7F0rPU?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
<br />
<b>6.55-7.55pm Queens of the Stoneage Stage 1</b><br />
Obviously nothing to say here except that they are AWESOME! <br />
<b> </b><br />
<b></b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/DcHKOC64KnE?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
<b>8pm- 10pm Iron Maiden Stage 1</b><br />
Oh Yes. Another freaking clash. GAR. Now a true metal fan would stay to see this whole set. And it would probably be on par with Megadeth's show at No Sleep Til Sydney apparently (although I also missed this due to conflicting band scheduling....!). however. I will be leaving early (after 80 of the 120 minutes....) to go and see my highlight of the day.....<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/M149WTrkNR8?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
<b>9.20-10pm PENNYWISE!!!!!</b> <b>Stage 6</b><br />
Pennywise Pennywise Pennywise.<br />
Made all the more better for the fact that <b>ZOLI</b> from <b>Ignite</b> is now the lead singer.<br />
Holy Shit. And if you are really lucky you will get to see them again on monday night in all their glory at the Roundhouse!!! woooohooo... :)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/zytrNdgVPDM?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
<br />
So there you have it. My picks for an awesome day of music. Although, in my experience at Festivals you spend the whole time waiting around for people and don't ever get to see the bands you want to see because you are waiting at the 'meeting place' or stuck in a queue somewhere or drunk or whatever. But one can HOPE that this is the way the day will pan out!!<br />

I've been trying (albeit unsuccessfully) to get a legal internship so that i can graduate but it seems to be taking F-O-R-E-V-E-R gar.... Anyway, so I am officially unemployed for the first serious amount of time since I was 17 and it's scary.... and BORING... I mean there is only so much sitting at home a person can do without getting frustrated with the monotony of it all! I could never be long-term unemployed! The worst thing is trying to get the legal internship, if it was just getting a job I wouldn't have had such an issue, but getting a start in law seems to be particularly hard living in a relatively small area such as Newcastle, where most law firms seem to focus on either commercial or family/criminal law, and these just aren't areas that really interest me that much!! Anyway, to stave off the boredom, I've been planning a holiday we will be (hopefully!) taking in October, once I've been admitted into the NSW Supreme court as a solicitor... Although I think I will miss another university graduation, as they are usually held at the end of October from what I remember... ... Maybe I'll just hire a gown one time and take photos in it and pretend I sat through the ceremony and got my degree on stage in front of a massive hall full of people like everyone else does :)<br />
<br />
Anyway, i've discovered this travel blog by a couple who have done a fair amount of backpacking, so enjoy their pictures (from Ardiuu's Flikr account via <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/adriuu/">here</a>), and check out their blog for all their incredible stories right here at <a href="http://www.twobackpackers.com/">Two backpackers</a><br />

I only go to the hairdressers every 4-6 months, becasue firstly, secondly, it's expensive and lastly, because I hate small talk and I get bored chatting to the hairdresser lol... Anyway, I pretty much always have long hair, because its much easier to tie it up in a bun when I can't be bothered, than have to wash, dry, straighten etc short/fringed cuts... Even if I see pictures of Scarrlett Johannsson and think "Oh yeah I could pull that off..." In reality I know better...So pretty much the only interesting thing that happens to my hair are the colour changes! I can never decide if I want to be brunette or blonde, so inevitably I chop and change between the two... This time I was going to keep it blonde for longer, but then, after looking for inspiration on the net I decided it was time for a move back over to the dark side....

<br />
Anyway, here is a print from the girl who runs <a href="http://www.delightfully-tacky.com/">Delightfully tacky</a> which is a super cool blog... she's Alaskan and has done a massive tour through the states in her Winnebago nicknamed "Brave".... definately check it out, she has cute clothes and has had some incredible adventures, ALL ON HER OWN!! I don't think I could have done that, I get too lonely in the car I need company in the form of my Sammy :)<br />

The difference in quality of these two trips should be attributed partly to the different light and climate between the two countries. PNG is hot, humid, bright and tropical; whereas NZ was cool, misty and often quite dark, similar to the UK. But honestly, it's the camera that was driving me bananas- having been an avid photographer since I was in year 6 when my dad let me have a whole roll of film to use on our road-trip from Katherine NT through Ayers Rock and the Olgas back to Hunter Valley NSW. </div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

I think because it was film, this enabled the picture quality to be quite good, but it didn't compare to the Film SLR camera which I used extensively in year 11 and 12 for my art majorwork. I loved this camera because of the two inter-changeable lenses and the massive flash you had to attach, I got some amazing photos, from yet another trip back to PNG and around the Hunter Valley. The only thing I found with this was that it was so heavy that I couldn't use it for extended periods of time, but the quality (in spite of the fact I was developing the photos) was really good, and it enabled me to do so much more with my photos..... <span id="goog_1018750749"></span><span id="goog_1018750750"></span></div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
