POPSAloha ... Find some joy and happiness This is my positive clip for the week. Hawaii is a very beautiful place to visit. I only wish I could absorb more of the "good vibes" emanating from this special place. I visited once, vow to go back and strive to walk in aloha on a daily basis. Here is an artist whom I play without fail at least once a month.

POPSUsing Your Limited Power Effectively "In fact, it isn’t up to you to save this nation. It is up to us all. And you need to convince me, your friends, your family, your co-workers, etc. every single day that if we aren’t acting or paying attention, we are letting the powers that be hold their prized power over us for one more day."

POPSMy positive clip for the week.... Michael Franti... POWER TO THE PEACEFUL I promised myself that I would celebrate my 50th year on this planet with something special every week to keep me positive, and happy to be alive. I want to contribute something to the world, and I haven't figured out what it is yet.... so instead I am going to share this clip with those who may pass by. If you haven't heard of Michael Franti, you are missing out on one cool dude... he's kinda like common, kinda like mos def.... but not really. Michael Franti has been tireless in his quest to promote peace and harmony in his music. Give a look and a listen.... you won't be disappointed.

POPSPeaceful Monks killed and detained in Burma.... Gitmo style Where is the justice? When people march peacefully for democracy, how is it that the free world sits and watches and does nothing to help? The military (a few) have dominated the many with the help of whom? Why won't China do something (insert rhetorical question here).

POPSUS Campaign for BURMA I was surfing around the pirate bay and came across this link. It outlines some of the boiling issues that have been going on for a long time in Burma before the monks brought it widespread attention this week. I think this photo shows a dead journalist who only had a camera. We must listen and act......help support people who are truly courageous.

POPSGeorge Washington's Rules of Civility
Insightful precepts of civil social behavior; as applicable now as ever. As a young schoolboy in Virginia, George Washington took his first steps toward greatness by copying out by hand a list of 110 ' Rules of Civility & Decent Behavior in Company and Conversation .' Based on a 16th-century set of precepts compiled for young gentlemen by Jesuit instructors, the Rules of Civility were one of the earliest and most powerful forces to shape America's first president.... Most of the rules are concerned with details of etiquette, offering pointers on such issues as how to dress, walk, eat in public and address one's superiors. But in the introduction to the newly published Rules of Civility: The 110 Precepts That Guided Our First President in War and Peace , Brookhiser warns against dismissing the maxims as "mere" etiquette. "The rules address moral issues, but they address them indirectly," writes. "They seek to form the inner man (or boy) by shaping the outer."

POPSTen Ways to Make Sure That Peace Stays Dead Too many people on each side see the other as wholly culpable. Too many people on each side see themselves as wholly innocent, wholly victimized, ill-served by the well-meaning, abandoned by former allies, betrayed by the media, misunderstood by people who should know better, forgotten by the world. Too many people on each side see only the suffering that has been caused them. Too many people have learned to wall themselves off from the suffering that they have caused.
