Chris Bedford discusses his current film, which is still in production and will be released Labor Day 2010.

The idea of the film began from a comment made at his local farmers market that a gentleman was able to cure his asthma through locally grown honey. The story begins there but quickly expands from a narrative of the health benefits of locally grown diet to Peak Oil and it's effect on community and also to a spiritual connection with our world and nature. Steve and Ed question Chris all the way through that journey and get a sense of what Chris is trying to accomplish.

One of my favorite moments was when Chris was asked, 'Do know how your film will end?' (or something similiar to that) and Chris says, 'No'. To me that is the true documentary film. The 'End' just emerges from the process of making the film. There is no contrived conclusion that the storyline is weaved around, rather the opposite happens, the story brings forth the solutions/answers/further questions. Getting to the Truth is the goal.

You can pre-purchase copies of the film, Growing Health, which will fund the movie during it's production phase. Chris would really appreciate the support. You can do this by going to clicking on this link, Pre-Order Growing Health.

Im upset at the fact that I speak of more ways when you basically say wiihtn your comments that I speak of one. For example .in which case your 5 minute video is a waste of time . In today's world it is Ultimate because those are the only possible ways to protect your laptop from being stolen. I do apologize that I have no software for windows similar to ialertu but the first software I spoke about tracks where the macbook is so you can track when it is stolen.

This is the last time I am saying this I spoke about more than just iAlertu so quit reeirrfng to it. You are the one who needs to do some research. Prey is a program meant to track your laptop. You use it WHEN it has been stolen to track where it is. This also means by the time someone reformats your computer you would have already tracked where your laptop is. iAlertu is just to prevent it from happening in the first place and if you payed attention it is not meant for anything else.

Fun aside, you need to do some research, and get your facts stigraht. If you wish to learn, I can point you in the right direction. Programs like iAlertu provide some security in the sense that they may annoy the perp into leaving your machine alone, but ultimately, this is noob security, I say this because there is only so much you can do to ensure your box is not physically stolen, what you need to be looking into is what you can do to increase the chances of recovering your box in this event
