this is an outrageous, but sadly true story… 2 men in their 20’s, one a social worker the other a yoga teacher, were given 6 month jail terms for jumping a fence to take some over ripe fruit and vegetables. Click on the link above to find out more about this felony crime — (yes, a FELONY!)

The title of this blog entry isn’t to suggest that you don’t have a personality, but if you want to analyze that thing, that persona, that essence that makes you, well, you, then read on…
The human resource departments of many large corporations have for decades now used the Myers Briggs personality test to determine how potential and actual employees might best be able have their talents utilized. It’s a multiple choice test that can be done online (for FREE). Based on the principles of revered psychologist Carl Jung, you will be classified according to a system (eg. “ENFP”) that is based on 4 binary combinations, giving a total universe of 16 types. Once you get your score, for want of a better word (say, “ISTJ”) google it and be amazed at how accurate Myers Briggs can be at assessing you, your strengths and weaknesses. More accurate than Milton Black!

is an amazing group (check out their website – squatspace.com) that was born from the Broadway Squats in inner Sydney during the turn of the Millenium. From living for free (squatting) they have branched out into showing art through an annual film festival, exhibiting art installations and, to top it off, a “re-cuisine machine dumpster cafe” opened in the squats!

I found a site today that is a portal for artists who dumpster dive as a means to get materials for their art. They’re based in California so if you’re interested check out the site. Here’s a statement of what they do…
“The Dumpster Diversion Project supports artists & environmental education programs in the local communities within Contra Costa County and the surrounding areas by providing access to reused materials.”
