Lottery Documentary: Being Scammed

Documentary-Log.com — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 20:30:49 +0000

Lottery Documentary: Being Scammed is an exclusive by Dateline that aired in March, 2012. This investigation shows that many people who win the lottery never get to claim their prize. Why? Because they never knew they had won. Many people find out by asking the store clerk to scan the ticket and let them know if they have won. Sometimes, the clerk lies and say they have not – then pockets the money for themselves. Dateline catches one clerk who robbed a client out of 1,000,000$

This is a really powerful investigation. It gets to the heart of the matter and catches the criminals red handed. Many admit to their crimes – mostly because the video image is so damning and the police arrests so humiliating. But the real victims usually do not receive their money. They have played the lottery and won: yet they are still losers.

We really enjoyed where there documentary takes the viewer. It asks psychological questions that get at the root of gambling, addiction, and deception.

Future Shock: Technology in the Next 10 Years
An extraordinaire collection of visionaries and entrepreneurs were assembled in the same room to talk about the next ten years. CEOs of Fortune 500 companies in mobile, online advertising, twitter, Google, and computer hardware companies.

Where do they see us going? This conference will get your mind racing about the possibilities! They see technology being handed over to the individual and culture becoming less and less relevant. An example is music: a top song is not as influential as the market fractures and individuals become more independent. There’s a family culture, work culture, hobby culture: they see us splintering into smaller and smaller groups and having bigger and bigger influence within these sub niches.

Fuel

Documentary-Log.com — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 21:23:59 +0000

Directed by Josh Tickell, FUEL is the eleven year quest to find a sustainable solution to America’s addiction to oil. When Tickell began filming, our reliance on oil was not in the news. This was before BP, wars in the middle east, and gas prices that could bankrupt a billionaire. And so, it’s a delightful journey to see. Slowly, people start to agree with Tickell that something needs to be done. Scientists start finding solutions – but will the oil industry sit by and let this happen? With a shrinking economy, struggling car industry, and an unemployed nation: do we have the stomach to fast ourselves off of oil and – perhaps – save the planet? The film never dwells on the negative, but instead shows us the easy solutions already within our reach.
