I’ll be back in early September, meaning (according to some) that I’m missing out on Vancouver weather at its absolute best. It’s a good thing I love the rain, I suppose.

I agree with you about NYC! The subway heat is basically unbearable. When the air-conditioned car comes by, my heart flutters.

You’re coming to Onterrible! Your odds of passing through Toronto have increased, haven’t they? Be sure to let me know if the wind blows you through the big smoke!

Comment on Raw milk consumers want freedom to choose by Tabbi Marks

The shareholders here are obviously individuals with considerable concern for what they put in their body. I find it strangely ironic that a provincial health organization is trying to deny them access to this product. Instead they should be worried about catching something of genuine concern such as the tainted Maple Leaf Foods debacle in 08.

Comment on Raw milk consumers want freedom to choose by Rylan

Raw milk is simply better for us. Period.

I do realize that pasteurization is a necessity, I get that. It’s the only way to provide a product to the average consumer that at least has a reasonable shelf life (or fridge life I guess) that won’t spoil within a day or two. And yes it does kill off harmful bacteria, but that’s not all it kills off.

It also degrades the calcium and phosphorous content, and partially denatures the protein content.

Of course, there are also healthy bacteria that live in milk – some of which actually help us digest the milk itself.

Growing up on a dairy farm, I was raised on raw milk which we had an abundant supply of – and without ever a hint of ever being lactose intolerance.

When I moved away from home and started drinking store-bought milk, I noticed significant digestive upset almost immediately after consuming it. Store bought milk – not so good for me.

Awesome b-roll. Great piece!
Kudos on bouncing back from your lost footage fiasco.

Great stuff, Evan. I’ll link to it from my blog. (I did a similar post about this event, but yours goes into much more detail.)

Speaking of detail, one tiny thing: the legal observers wear orange…though I totally see how it could look like red at night ;-p

Comment on Greenpeace protest erupts during Ignatieff’s address to UBC students (with audio) by Lewis

I thought ol’ Iggy handled the protesters quite well. Turned the tables on them, even. Anyway, solid write-up, Mr. Duggan.

You bet Gill, glad you like it. It really kicks your butt in a very short amount of time.

I’m all for shorter workouts that produce the same, or better results than workouts that take an hour or more.
