just an idea for ambiental salvation

I strongly belive that in order to arrest totally ambiental waste and fast climate changes, all goods should contain indications on their ambiental impact including the one for production, estimated maintenance / service and the impact on the final disposal / reutilization.

This control should include clothes, foods, electronic devices, and so on without regarding to their dimenions and shold be involve more third parts for trasparency.

Someway in many countries there's yet… Continue

Dear Tom and Diane:

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me in support of reforming our health care system.

Fillibuster and Congressional Bill "Trailers"

i'm somewhat unsure as to the actual history and need/motive for the concept and procedure of filibuster. i seem to recall it having something to do with protecting the political presence/“currency” of small(er) states. things get tweeked over time and depending on the needs of the tweekers regardless of political party. can anyone inform on this and then begin a conversation as to how we can eliminate the abuses? i think that might be a start in creating a more functional… Continue

Letter to Senator Feinstein Regarding the Clean Air Act

July 23, 2009

Dear Senator Feinstein

We were very disappointed to see where lobbyists for Big Coal were able to prevail in vital wording within the House energy bill. That wording repeals a key Clean Air Act provision; if passed as is that bill would lock in a new generation of dirty coal power and block many of the solar and wind power jobs that our country dearly needs.

While we realize that the bill does some good things, like improving energy efficiency, we… Continue

President Bush's Corrupt Immunity Protection for Drug Companies

We are very upset about the inclusion of immunity protection for drug companies at the last minute by select members of the Senate who claim to be “Patriots” or “Civil Servants.” Clearly, both the substance and methodology of that last minute inclusion belie a far different reality.

These provisions were slipped into the conference report at midnight on Sunday. After many Senators and House members had already signed the conference report, Majority Leader Frist and Speaker Hastert… Continue

Letter Supporting the Preservation of the Del Monte Forest

On June 14th the California Coastal Commission is meeting in Santa Rosa for a critical hearing that could decide the fate of one of the few remaining stands of coastal pine trees, the Del Monte Forest in the Carmel area. Unfortunately, perhaps, for these trees, the “intelligent designer” failed to realize the risks of putting them in an area where golf courses that would cater to the very rich and powerful try to rule the environment. Never mind the fact that such areas are “national… Continue

Letter to a Congressperson Regarding the Formation of a Consumer Financial Protection Agency

Congressman Kevin McCarthy

1523 Longworth Building

Washington, DC 20515

July 10, 2009

Congressman McCarthy,

I want to ask you to co-sponsor and/or support a strong Consumer Financial Protection Agency. For too long banks and credit card companies have been able to use deceptive methods to lure unsuspecting consumers into credit situations that they, the consumer, had no business engaging in.

This new agency would be able to implement… Continue

Letter in support of Amnesty International Watch

When a member of any society is murdered or otherwise silenced, the message is shouted out that those responsible or who have condoned the silencing are, for all practical purposes, evil. Those people who have a responsibility to bring the silencers to justice are equally evil if they turn their backs on or otherwise ignore the harsh reality for ANY reason. That sort of evil concerns the vast majority of people in the world.

Anything short of comprehensive and thorough pursuit of the… Continue

Till We Meet Again

So now what?

Here we are, in some kind of a weird, crazy reality.

Beach Buddy and I.

I think about all of the reasons this could be what we're experiencing, and none of it makes any sense to me.

We about as mis-matched a pair as one could imagine.

If he weren't around, I'm sure I'd be convinced that I'm crazy.

My own kids don't get it, nor my mom, friends--- nor my co-workers...

I met him just as I was scarfing down some Spiritual Spinach, in order to… Continue

How poor nations can become rich.

It is now very clear that emotional intelligence is as important as regular intelligence for individuals. As Governments are made up of individuals we must emphasize the importance of emotional intelligence standards for Governments. We must create Gross National Standards/Values for Governments.

The benefits of wisdom

Gross National Standards/Values

Just like Gross National Product of countries we have to measure Gross National Standards/Values. Show every… Continue

Wisdom is a tree.

Wisdom is a tree. The attributes of wisdom are its fruit. As man knows the attributes of wisdom man tries to teach these attributes. It is very difficult and frustrating to cultivate these attributes because it is the same as trying to produce bananas without the banana tree. Cultivate the tree and the bananas will emerge automatically.

I am of the opinion that one must be fully trained to play the game of life to the best of one’s fully developed potential. While the world is… Continue

Redesigning Philosophy to Master Life.

Shifting the focus of philosophy from understanding the very nature of life to mastering life.

Would you rather be an expert of what it takes to be a millionaire or would you prefer being a millionaire? After all the goal of philosophy is to master your life; philosophy itself is the means to a super life. Philosophy is a means to make the journey a wise one, to make life super mature. Philosophy is not the destination. A superior super mature life is the destination. Life is a journey… Continue

Lesson-In-A-Box

It's doubtful that you'll ever find a young child who hasn't wanted a bicycle for Christmas -- and we three Hinson boys were no different. We'd spent the entire year of 1963, in fact, begging and pleading for Daddy to buy each of us one. After all, our sister had had one for years, but it was a "girlie" bike. We couldn't be seen riding that over Morrow Avenue; all our friends would laugh at us.

Still, he used the same reply each time: "Maybe for Christmas… Continue

A Journey into My Akashic Records---Saturday, July 25th.

How did I end up here?

The answers would not come.

What has really been going on these past few months?

I've not been able to figure anything out, so I haven't really cared about finding the answers.

So, I did what I used to do back when I believed in all this guidance crap, just a few short months ago.

I opened my Akashic Records.

When this idea… Continue

crisis is not the occasion for discovering true ideals

but people/society with no ideals fall into crisis sooner or later.

values and self interest are like night and day : they survive and need of each other.......like innocence and wisdom......

In the same way peace shouldn't deny justice........

the weaker I am the more I have to think to my self interest but society out of this spaces seems to work in the opposite direction
