The Atlantic
The Atlantic is one of the few print magazines to which I still subscribe. Having been around for 150 years, The Atlantic has a developed a keen sense of America's history and translates that sense into cogent and readable analysis of today's events. The Atlantic covers politics, culture, media, the arts, technology, and a bit of business. They tend to take a fairly progressive point of view but have certainly been known to be hawkish and/or somewhat conservative in some of their writings. Overall, I highly recommend The Atlantic as a magazine for active, pragmatic thinkers who want to engage in the world today.

More environmental notables: the reusable water bottle. Jack Johnson praised its virtues in "3 Rs." Reduce, reuse, recycle. It is the mantra of our future, the soundtrack of green. It's playing now in your head, isn't it ?

But we are definitely thinking twice about the bags we carry into AND out of stores of every kind. PLUS, retail giant Target is now giving you a discount for not using their plastic. Our alternatives continue becoming ever more visually and financially appealing. Progress, duly noted.

I have to love the man who regularly puts my hometown on the map during his weekday weather reports. But Al Roker has greatly exceeded all of my expectations in the last decade, becoming a huge advocate of literacy, lending his voice to the animation of "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs," and, most recently, co-authoring a comedy-mystery tale of morning television. Up next: his inside take on the Winter Games in Vancouver . . .

Bindi the Jungle Girl (daughter of Steve Irwin, The Crocodile Hunter) has been following in her dad's footsteps since birth. She won me over during a cameo performance on "The Wiggles" but has since garnered her own show on Discovery Kids, promoting wildlife appreciation and environmental awareness. And, along with Beau Bridges, she will soon be coming to a movie theatre near you in "Free Willy: Escape from Pirate's Cove." Only 11 and she's already leading the charge to save the planet and its ever-growing list of endangered species . . . she's the jungle girl to watch.

Highly recommended! 600+ pages of the best articles to appear in the independent magazine Mute, accompanied by lots of colour illustrations. This is a great reference tool for anyone interested in cultural politics, globalisation, Web 2.0, social movements, activism, cyber-feminism, digital cultures, and new media art. It's a surprisingly good book to flick through for a dose of intellectual stimulation - most of the articles are about 3000 words and very well done.

I really want to read this book by activist and social critic Naomi Wolf who explains in very simple language how are democracy is in jeopardy at this very moment. And not from an external threat, but from what the "forefathers" of the U.S. talked about in the Declaration of Independence. A truly patriotic book for those who want to make sure life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are not compromised and remain the basic tenets of our democracy.

Know your rights as an individual and a nation. This historical declaration informs the people of how to keep your government in check and what the gov't should and SHOULD NOT do. Pay close attention to how many violations of the people's rights (as indicated in the declaration) have been in practice under the current administration. Uh oh. Sound familiar. History does repeat itself. So get out in vote. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjALf12PAWc
