The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism by Naomi Klein

The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism by Naomi Klein


U utorak, 18. septembra 2007. godine, izlazi u prodaju knjiga The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism.

Autor je Naomi Klein, poznati novinar iz Kanade - i antiglobalista. U ovoj knjizi ona optužuje Miltona Friedmana, poznatog američkog ekonomistu - Nobelovca, zato što je doktrinu slobodnog tržišta želeo da uvede kroz šok terapiju. A šok je momenat koji se svesno kreira da bi se onda "spontano" uvela ekonomska doktrina koju se zagovara. Tako kaže Naomi Klein. Lek koji ona preporučuje je sledeći: pošto je šok po definiciji privremen, najbolji način da se odbranimo od njega je da pokušamo da shvatimo šta nam se dešava - i zašto nam se to dešava.

"Information is shock resistance – Arm Yourself."

Sa time se potpuno slažem. Trebaju nam nove i nove informacije da bismo mogli da razumemo šta nam se dešava. A to samo znači, stalno biti radoznao, istraživati ono što nam se čini interesantnim, pokušavajući da shvatimo svet u kome živimo. Za sve druge njene stavove, morao bih ipak da pročitam ovu knjigu da bih mogao nešto bliže da kažem.

Ovo je video zapis koji u kratkim crtama govori o šok terapiji.

Fizička aktivnost pozitivno utiče i na naše gene

Fizička aktivnost nam pomaže da budemo i pametniji, a ne samo da imamo dobar struk.

Dean Ornish, M.D. - Bigger Brains, Better Genes

You don’t need to read this column to know that exercise is good for you. You probably already know that regular, moderate exercise is one of the best things you can do for your health and well-being. What you may not know is that new research is showing that exercise beneficially affects your genes, helps reverse the aging process at a cellular level, gives you more energy, makes you smarter, and may even help you grow so many new brain cells (a process called neurogenesis) that your brain actually gets bigger...

Namirnice koje povoljno utiču na holesterol

Namirnice koje povoljno utiču na holesterol

odnosno, podižu nivo dobrog holesterola - HDL, i/ili smanjuju nivo lošeg holesterola - LDL

Oats

When women in a University of Toronto study added oat bran to an already heart-healthy diet, HDL-cholesterol levels—the beneficial kind—climbed more than 11 percent


Almonds

A 2005 Tufts University study found that substances in almond skins help prevent LDL cholesterol from being oxidized, a process that can otherwise damage the lining of blood vessels and increase cardiovascular risk.


Beans & Lentils

In results reported in the Annals of Internal Medicine in 2005, LDL-cholesterol levels fell almost twice as far in volunteers on a low-fat diet who added beans and lentils (along with more whole grains and vegetables) to the menu.


Blueberries

Blueberries contain a powerful antioxidant called pterostilbene that may help lower LDL cholesterol, scientists at the Agricultural Research Service reported in 2004.


Barley

When volunteers in a 2004 USDA study added barley to the standard American Heart Association diet, LDL-cholesterol levels fell more than twice as far


Avocados

The monounsaturated fats in avocados have been found to lower bad LDLs and raise good HDLs, especially in people with mildly elevated cholesterol.




Alcohol

Drinking a glass of wine with dinner—any alcoholic beverage, in fact—has been shown to raise good-cholesterol levels and lower the risk of a heart attack. (Excessive drinking, however, raises heart-disease danger.)

Blinkx - Video Search Engine

Preko 14 miliona časova video zapisa - koji se mogu pretraživati. The New York Times juče ga je označio kao potencijalno disruptivnu tehnologiju.

A 14 miliona časova, to je 1.598 godina besprekidnog gledanja video zapisa. Izgleda da ćemo konačno naučiti da cenimo vreme. Ko je rekao da je vreme novac? Mislim da nije. VREME JE MNOGO VAŽNIJE OD NOVCA!!! Novac je izmišljen pre nekoliko hiljada godina, a vreme je večna kategorija. Kako je neko uopšte i mogao da poredi tako različite stvari!

Male promene u životnom stilu mogu dovesti do unapređenja kognitivnih funkcija i efikasnosti mozga

Simple Lifestyle Changes May Improve Cognitive Function And Brain Efficiency

A UCLA research study published in the June issue of the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry found that people may be able to improve their cognitive function and brain efficiency by making simple lifestyle changes such as:

  • incorporating memory exercises,
  • healthy eating,
  • physical fitness and
  • stress reduction into their daily lives.
"The UCLA study is the first to show the impact of memory exercises and stress reduction used together with a healthy diet and physical exercise to improve brain and cognitive function", said lead investigator, Dr. Gary Small, professor of psychiatry and biobehavioral sciences at the Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior at UCLA
