The Tea Party

August 31st, 2010

The Tea Party occupies a very fuzzy place in the moral consciousness of the United States: on the one hand there is the ulta-libertarian tendency that is part of American History on the other there is a racist backlash against the United States’first African American president. People don’t like taxes, fair enough. The colonists went to Boston Harbor and threw the tea overboard to make their point. They didn’t want a King and they wanted to be free from outside Read the rest of this entry »

Attitudes to homosexuality and bisexuality in modern Britain

August 3rd, 2010

There was once a time in Britain’s history not too long ago when being involved in a sexual relationship with the same sex was a criminal offence and usually consisted of a hefty fine or even a prison sentence. The concept of homosexuality or bisexuality in Britain was mostly taboo, rarely discussed in the public sphere and often frowned upon by the majority. However, during the cultural revolution of the 1960s, a new dawn of social change emerged, sparking the Read the rest of this entry »

Enigin donates Enifice!

Its so nice when big companies decide to donate to worthy causes. Especially one that have ever greater advantages to society such as saving energy. Often services and products donated can have a much higher monetary value than any money raised.

Money raised by individuals for the purchase of goods and services has the disadvantage of having to utilize essential resources of staff in terms of time and exspertise in decideing on what goods and service the Read the rest of this entry »

Angry Hush Hush

June 7th, 2010

The village where I live is much like many other English villages. It has a church which annoys all the villagers when it plays its bells every morning, a shop which is called a ‘corner shop’ yet is nowhere near a corner and never was, and scandal – typical village, murder-she-wrote style scandal (plus one man who has three horses and is obsessed with equine liability insurance, as you would be when one of them hates the other two).

Temper Tantrums - Stay Calm It Will Pass

Temper Tantrums - Stay Calm It Will Pass

Why is it that children have temper tantrums? Why does it seem they always want to throw one when you are out in public? Temper tantrums are a way for children to express their anger and frustration. Tantrums are common in both boys and girls and is a normal thing in toddlers. I remember when I was in a toy store with my four year old and she started throwing a temper tantrum because I told her she couldn’t have Read the rest of this entry »

Look Here Now!

The internet makes our lives better in so many ways. I don’t think I need to tell you, after all, you just had Laser skin resurfacing and ordered that thing from Amazon and that holiday you’re going on in three months time was all booked online. But there is one thing that the internet is not good for (aside from not meeting people in real life and not going to the supermarket to buy food from a real human being).

Get it Right

April 9th, 2010

Website design: easy, right? Wrong! Of course, there are packages out there that let you build your website yourself, but that doesn’t mean that they really tell you what looks good. The point is that the people who sell these packages don’t care if your site looks good or not. It’s a business thing and that’s it, so if you want a stonking good website then it’s up to you to get the Read the rest of this entry »

Is Daydreaming a Forgotten Portal to Spirituality?

Is Daydreaming a Forgotten Portal to Spirituality?

When it comes to spirituality, there are three common approaches: religion, witchcraft or astral travel. All of these spiritual venues have problems. Religion often stifles spiritual independence, while witchcraft can sometimes evoke the powers of evil forces, (even if that wasn’t the intention). And astral travel can be very scary, especially if a person inadvertently transports themselves into a lower plane.

So, with that being said, is there an additional option that can allow a person to discover their spirituality? Read the rest of this entry »

That Word…

March 19th, 2010

‘Marketing’ is a shameful English word which really needs to be changed to something nicer sounding, in my humble opinion. If the word ‘Marketing’ was replaced with something like ‘Hawaii’, ‘Lovely’, or ‘Gorgeous’ we would all love Marketing and smile whenever we heard the word it should have been. We’d finish the week and look forward to a weekend stuffed with marekting. But alas the word ‘Marketing’, to many people, has Read the rest of this entry »
