The Hidden Cost of War
Interesting little motion piece referencing the costs of war that the public don’t get a chance to see. Collaborative project between GOOD and Athletics.

Riverview Theater VP Debates
Anyone in the Twin Cities who doesn’t know where to go to catch the VP debates should check out the Riverview Theater tonight at 7PM. The Riverview will be showing of the live debates in the theater. Admission is free. There should be even more action and drama in this round of debates than the last Rambo movie, so don’t miss ‘em! Check the Riverview Theater for more info.

Manifest Hope Gallery at Andenken
JoyEngine has a great little sneak peek of the Manifest Hope Gallery showing at Andenken in Denver. The show opened to the public today and will run until Wednesday. I’m super jealous of all who reside in proximity to Denver and all the treats the DNC brings with. I wish I could be equally excited for the RNC here in St Paul, but I just can’t seem to think of anything exciting it’ll bring to share…Anyway, swing on over to the JoyEngine blog and take a peek.

Obama Rally, St Paul
So, I kind of slipped on making sure I got this up in a timely fashion, but I think it’s important to bring mention to it and to share our funtastic experience. The rally was held on the 3rd in St. Paul at the Excel Event Center which holds about 18,000 people. We waited in a 3 hour line and just barely got in at the last minute. At one point, the line was actually over a mile long! Hahah. It all sounds pretty ridiculous, but we figured there was nothing better to do for the rest of the night, and aimed to stick it out no matter how long the wait. According to news sources in the area, there were the 18,000 people inside and another 15,000 outside. Those numbers are estimates, but you can clearly see that a shit ton of people showed up to see this speech. It was completely surreal to see that many people in one spot for something like this. To see someone speak in real life is completely different than on TV. I’m sure that sounds like an expected response, but it’s not anything I’ve really experienced. It actually made me want to get more involved and inspired me to do something (both, the speech and just being there). Here is a good link to check out for line pics and the map of the line.

Murat Kurnaz
I’m not really in the mood to discuss this too much, due to my last 2 hours being spent watching and reading about how bad the United States Government is fucking the world up. Make sure to do your research, pay attention and be involved.

Obama on Race
This is well worth your ears, but will take about 30 mins of your time. You can also read the full speech here. Let this sway your vote.
