   HAPPINESS IS's Blurbs
About me:
Happiness Is is a road trip to explore what the pursuit of happiness means in America. It is the second film from Andrew Shapter, Director of the acclaimed documentary, Before The Music Dies. Happiness Is tells an insightful and provocative tale of how we pursue happiness in America as it travels across the country, looking for answers. Along the way, we hear from folks like John and Elaine Mellencamp, the Dalai Lama, & Willie Nelson along with best-selling authors like Dan Millman, comedians and lots of everyday people encountered in big cities and small towns along the way, all pursuing the American dream. So come along on this journey, as we explore what truly makes us happy...because it may not be a big secret after all!

"The latest show about Jan haagensen was simply shocking - I'll support her case. These "hunters" are a shame on humanity - hunting was a necessity in previous centuries but it's become simply entertainment for cowards. Great you're making Vancouver an international center for discussion!!!" - Andalusia

"The Jan Haagensen interview was excellent and I hope they do invalidate the whole hunter harassment statue because it is unconstitutional. I like this women and her love for animals. Seems quite a lot of people know Jan as their "hero" already, so it's great news. And thank you Anthony for a great radio program." - Tierra

"Really Good interview, Jan Haagensen is a Great Lady!" - Dominique

"That hunter who threatened Jan and her mother should have been charged with making a terrorist threat. Which is also a felony by the way." - Wolf

Anthony Marr will be speaking at the Animal Rights Conference (www.ARConference.org) on his own plan to challenge the Hunter Harassment laws of other states for being unconstitutional.

For 30 years, Jan Haagensen has been harassed and her farm in PA invaded with impunity by hunters, and her NO HUNTING signs and fences repeatedly torn down. 10 years ago, she had had enough, and approached the trespassing hunters to ask them to leave, and asked a hunter engaged in illegal hunting to cease and desist. When a hunter threatened to shoot her and her mother, she called police, which sided chummily with the hunters, and later charged her with 5 counts of "hunter harassment". The "kangaroo court" convicted her on all 5 counts. Being an attorney, she appealed to the appellate court and won, and is now challenging the PA Hunter Harassment Statute in federal court as being unconstitutional for inhibiting free speech and violating property rights. If she wins, doors will be open for challenging the equally unconstitutional Hunter Harassment laws of other states.

Jan will be Anthony Marr's guest on Animal Voices this Friday, July 3, 3-4pm-ET/12-1pm-PT, online live at www.CoOpRadio.org. If you missed it, go to www.myspace.com/AnthonyMarr where the interviews are archived. Call-in hotline 1-604-684-7561.

Listen to Anthony Marr, your AR/Eco activist talkshow host, and his amazing guests, on Animal Voices every Friday, 3-4pm ET/2-3pm CT/1-2pm MT/noon-1pm PT. Listen online live @ www.coopradio.org; or CFRO radio 102.7FM (Vancouver); archive at www.myspace.com/AnthonyMarr & www.AnimalVoices.org; hotline 604-684-7561

Anthony's June 26th guest is Tim Gorski, the "Indiana Jones of AR" - undercover operations in SE Asia (e.g. Thailand and Myanmar), disaster animal rescue (e.g. tsunami and Katrina), film making (award winning), strategic campaigning (cost Miami Seaquarium $44 million). Not to be missed!

Anthony's guests for Friday, July 3, will be Brenda Davis, Cory Davis, Sinikka Crosland and Carmen Crosland. Brenda and Cory were Anthony's co-compaigners in his 40-states-in-7-months Compassion for Animals Road Expedition #1 (CARE-1, of 6 so far) in 2003/2004. Brenda is the best selling co-author of Becoming Vegetarian, Becoming Vegan and Defeating Diabetes, among others, and Cory was only 15 when the tour began.

Good news and bad. Good: horse slaughter has been banned in the US. Bad: Canada is doing the dirty work. This leaves Sinikka Crosland, the head of The Responsible Animal Care Society based in Kelwona, British Columbia, to deal with the mess and fight the battle for all of us, among her other admirable works and accomplishments. Her daughter Carmen has been an AR activist and youth leader since she was 10.

Hey there,
Here's one from left field...
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4
Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible.
Help to raise awareness.
Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently?
Take care and keep in touch.
Best,
Faber.

The trick is to stay focused on what you want to happen and let go of what you do not... cuz if you keep seeing things as they are, convincing yourself that you "have to" because that's reality, then it will always be your reality. want to change? it's as simple as changing the who, what, how, why and when of what you look at... DAILY :)

There is only so much sand in the hourglass.
It doesn’t take a wise person to know that
People long for more.
We hunger, and we question why ?
We have our moments.
The newborn on the breast.
The bride should on the arm.
The sunshine is on your back.
These are simply your moments
Breaking through heaven’s window.
Your appetizer is on your own dish.
The flirts, the romance, the tantalizes.
These are your breathtaking verse’s.
It’s a tug of war, and you are the rope.
Focus means your power is under control.
Blessed are those who recognize their
God given responsibilities.
When you acknowledge them,
you may apply for the position.
If you are setting-up to do business.
Make sure your business is right.

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God;
It never was between you and them anyway.

-Mother Teresa
