Peter Joseph was born in North Carolina to a middle class family. The son of a mailman and a social worker, he began his creative interests with music at a young age. Later, seeking a career in percussion, he moved to New York initially to attend a conservatory, only to drop out after an inability to afford the tuition. He lives and works in New York City and focuses on media related fields, including music composition, editing, post-production and other A/V related. He is also a former private equity trader, which he often comments upon as being his "introduction to the wasteful, destructive system known as Wall Street".
After the release of Zeitgeist: Addendum, he founded the Zeitgeist Movement, which is a social sustainability organization with members now in nearly every country. His work with the movement is now a large part of his daily activities - giving lectures and helping to produce relevant media/materials to spread the interest for a new social system called a resource-based economy.
@patsaxon: Oh wait, here's the kicker... is your God so vengeful that apparently he has to kill and destroy in order to make people believe in him? "Believe in me and do as I say or else!" Only tyrants do that... clearly your God is exactly that and more!

Religion has done something good for me, I now take care of myself by eating well and exercising and living a healthy life all because of religion. Because I want to live long enough to see the headline: "About Time! Religion Finally Dies!" So thank you religion!
There is no question that Private Bradley Manning is currently undergoing both physical and psychological torture at the hands of the U.S. military, and that he has been undergoing both forms of torture since his initial incarceration.
As I previously reported here, Manning was first detained in Iraq in May, where he was stationed as an intelligence analyst with the U.S. Army; he was charged in July and transferred to a Marine Corps Brig in Quantico, Virginia and immediately placed in solitary confinement. The situation has only deteriorated for Bradley Manning since then.
First incarcerated for allegedly exposing atrocities like the American air strikes that killed Afghan children and other innocent civilians, Bradley Manning, 23, is the alleged source of the now infamous diplomatic cables, which have dominated the news media since their arrival on the public scene. It seems the cables and leaked video are newsworthy and of great public interest-- interesting enough to dominate the mainstream media and yet somehow warranting the torture of their alleged messenger, who has been left to whither away in a 6 x 12 cell.
A recent interview with House can be seen here:
Peculiarly, no other detainee at the Quantico Brig is being forced to endure the "isolation and humiliation" that Bradley Manning is being subject to. His treatment has been described as "degrading," "inexcusable," "without justification" and "an embarrassment to our military justice." As such, Coombs argues that it must not be tolerated.
Zeitgeist: Moving Forward, by director Peter Joseph, is a feature length documentary work which will present a case for a needed transition out of the current socioeconomic monetary paradigm which governs the entire world society.
This subject matter will transcend the issues of cultural relativism and traditional ideology and move to relate the core, empirical "life ground" attributes of human and social survival, extrapolating those immutable natural laws into a new sustainable social paradigm called a "Resource-Based Economy".

In adjusting to their new positions in the hospital, the residents embark on a search for different identities.J.D., feeling more like a doctor, proudly dons a white lab coat and attempts to stand up to theJanitorandDr. Cox.Turkfinds himself with intense back pains after being stuck working with Dr. Amato, a very short surgeon. Meanwhile, Elliot is getting some extra attention from Dr. Di Stefano, a handsome surgeon, and Turk's boss, who constantly assigns Turk to work with Dr. Amato to punish him for skipping guy's night out with the other surgeons. When they all get together later,Carlabrands them each with an identity: J.D. is the geek; Turk is the jocky frat boy with back problems; and Elliot is... white, an identity that Elliot hates because J.D. is also white.
A new patient, Mr. Blair, has been admitted for a severe sinus infection and J.D. is treating him. As Mr. Blair's infection persists, J.D. decides to administer a stronger antibiotic intravenously. The patient ends up losing his sense of smell and blames J.D. After much anxiety, J.D. finds that it wasn't his fault after all and confronts Dr. Cox for seemingly placing the blame on him.
Looking to change her straight-laced reputation, Elliot has a one-night stand with Dr. Di Stefano. Soon after, rumors of her tryst spreads like wildfire throughout the hospital. At first she is upset, but later revels in her new reputation as a sex expert.
Carla and Elliot are treating Mrs. Brumbry when Carla realizes that the patient's age disqualifies her from a beneficial G.I. clinical trial. Dr. Cox decides to break the rules and enters her in the trial anyway.Dr. Kelsotakes pleasure in reprimanding Dr. Cox, but later finds that the patient actually was qualified. He apologizes, but Cox states he would have broken the rules anyway.
In an attempt to fit in with the other jocky surgeons, Turk betrays his friendship with Elliot. Later, after having an eye opening talk with Dr. Amato, he stands up against the other surgeons.
We don't have to say a lot when we describe the truth...!!!
