Integral Activism: Plastic Bag Action Needed Now!
By
Ethan Nichtern
From Rafi Santo of the Integral Activism Team: For those that weren’t able to make it to this Sunday’s meeting, we have an incredible opportunity to take action on our Back to the Sack: No More Plastic Bags initiative this week to help stop a weak recycling bill from passing through the Governor Paterson’s desk…
How do you say “Oy Vey” in Swedish?
By
Emily Herzlin
This video isn’t new, it’s from about a year ago, but in celebration of having successfully assembled all my new IKEA furniture (which is an adventure in patience and commitment and, well, splinters), I thought I’d post this. Mark Malkoff, a writer and filmmaker, lived in IKEA for a week and made a film about…

Proust as dathün?
By
Greg Zwahlen
This was in the works before Ethan Nichtern’s recent allusion to Proust, but I think it’s an appropriate follow-up.

In the Shambhala community to which I belong, dathüns have been an essential part of the path of practice…

Do Portlanders use fewer bags or just feel more guilt?
By
sarahnyc
At tonight’s ID Project Portland meeting Davee Evans wrapped up his month long series of talks about how our meditation practice influences our consumption choices. During the discussion the inevitable issue of plastic bags came up. We all agreed that we appreciate how in nearly every store in Portland you are asked at the checkout…
Reproducing the status quo: “The Disadvantages of an Elite Education”
By
sarahnyc
Well, as cassmaster said, we’ve been chatting via email about our mutual interest in that thing we’re not supposed to talk about in America: the class system and the myth of meritocracy. So I’ll follow up her post on this topic with one of my own. A friend of mine found a link to this…
Turnabout is Fair Play?
By
Ethan Nichtern
Courtesy of Vanity Fair: Not nearly as offensive (no racist stereotypes – they’d have to have McCain in a Klan outfit to even come close), but what do you think?
