Video Vault: Ron Paul Talks About the Economy

For whatever reason, the streaming of this video is slow (be patient). This is a great discussion with a brilliant man; the reason nobody whats to listen to him is the same reason our country is on this economic path:

Slumdog Millionaire

A masterful accomplishment for director Danny Boyle, Slumdog Millionaire is a shoe-in as one of the top films of 2008. The story has true strength; the visual depictions of India are brilliant; the actors--kids included--give performances that define careers. Surprisingly, Slumdog will be filed in my film vault as one of the great love stories of 2008:

Video Vault: UNHCR's Gimme Shelter Campaign

Source
"Actor-director Ben Affleck and Sir Mick Jagger have launched a short film for UNHCRs new Gimme Shelter campaign to help raise funds and awareness about the crisis in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the work of the UN refugee agency.

In November, Affleck visited Africa to shoot footage in DRCs strife-torn North Kivu province, where tens of thousands have fled their homes since fighting resumed in August. He also visited Uganda, where some 30,000 people have sought refuge and are receiving help from UNHCR. The result is a short film entitled Gimme Shelter, set to the classic Rolling Stones song of the same name, which Jagger and the group donated to the campaign.

UNHCR hopes the Gimme Shelter campaign will help raise US$23 million in 2009 to pay for clean water supplies and emergency humanitarian assistance kits in the region.

The film - Gimme Shelter - was directed by Affleck and filmed by John Toll, both Academy Award winners. The footage was shot in the strife-torn North Kivu region of the DRC in November, where thousands have fled their homes since fighting resumed in August."
