My daughter attends High School here in Jefferson County, Kentucky. She was placed in ISAP (Detention) for the full day due to a “dress code” violation.   She wasn’t wearing a belt. While I appreciate the importance of rules and the need to enforce them, I am appalled by the extreme disciplinary tactics in dealing with dress code infractions.   Denying a child access to her/his classes and then placing them in the same room with children with distinct and continuous  behavioral problems?  All due to not having a belt to wear? Is it me or does anyone else find this extreme?    And not only is it extreme -- but is cheating a child out of their class time and their education.  This, in my opinion, is not only a form of neglect, but an abuse of power by the faculty and staff. And I assure you, I am not alone in my opinion in this regard. My child (and a few other children as well)  missed out on her classes, deni...

If you are thinking and believing one person doesn’t make a difference -- for good or for bad.    If you think and/or believe you can’t do anything about what is going on in the world …  then consider one Dr. Hew Len. A little over thirty years ago, Dr. Hew Len, through the ancient practice of Ho’Oponopono, worked healing on a mental hospital.  The results were astounding! Read More about it:  http://rosariomontenegro.hubpages.com/hub/How-Dr-Hew-Len-healed-a-ward-of-mentally-ill-criminals-with-Hooponopono By taking responsibility for SELF … you change the physical world around you. Dr. Hew Len took responsibility for his SELF when working with the mental hospital -- and look what happened. Now if one man can do this with a mental hospital -- imagine what would happen if ALL of us followed in Dr. Hew Len’s foot steps!  The Great News … I, and countless others, are consciously practicing this ancient Hawaiin ritual of self cleansing and clea...

When it actually began -- no one knows for certain.  But you can bet your bottom dollar -- it has been around for a very, very long time!  How many are an active part of this particular “occupy movement”  -- is unknown.   But rest assured -- their numbers are vast -- and they are growing.   The many members of this "movement"  are All who are ready, willing and desiring to create, initiate and motivate the real changes.    They are  All of those people  who are willing to take and accept 100%  responsibility for Self -- they are those who have already accepted 100% responsibility for everything taking place throughout  the world; they are ALL  those who now know the “other person” isn’t to blame. They are those who know -- who believe -- who live by-- being the change they desire to see in the world!   They are the ones who do not wait for the "other person"  -- but take the initiative to...

Domestic Violence does not discriminate against age, race, color, creed, gender or sexual orientation. The U. S. Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) defines domestic violence as a "pattern of abusive behavior in any relationship that is used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another intimate partner" .  The definition adds that domestic violence "can happen to anyone regardless of race, age, sexual orientation, religion, or gender", and that it can take many forms, including physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional, economic, and psychological abuse Our society, both here in the United States and world-wide, have been conditioned to think and believe that domestic violence only means women and children.   But the sad fact is, it also includes boys and men. “When we ignore male victims of domestic abuse, we also ignore their children, who continue to be damaged by witnessing the violence regardless of how severe it is. We cannot br...

dregs:   the most undesirable parts;  the last remaining parts Back when I was a kid, I saw this documentary on how gold is made into bullion.  It was fascinating to watch those little nuggets melted down and the man skimming the top of that golden liquid with a ladle like instrument.  The narrator informed us that he was removing the dregs.  Being a curious child, I asked my mother what dregs were.  She said that was the stuff that was useless and worthless.  The same process was used in making wine, she told me.     I then asked what would happen if they kept those dregs in.  She informed me that the gold would be worthless and the wine would go bad.  It would be of no use to anyone! The removal of the dregs is a painstaking process that reaps great rewards.  It is a process that cannot be hurried.    Dependent upon the individual product, the removal technique may require numerous efforts...

Cranial Uppitus Gluteus Maximus Dysfunction.   More commonly  known as, Head Stuck Up Your Ass Syndrome .  This is one of the most common dis-eases known to humankind.  There are no pills or serum to cure this malady.  Nor are there any modern conventional medical means in which to have it surgically repaired.   At least not yet! But do not fall into despair my fellow earth travelers!  There is hope!  In fact, many are taking the opportunity to self-heal themselves by moving with the energies of a shifting process.   This shifting process is none other than …  The ASS-cension . The ASS-cension is the process of pulling one’s head out of one’s ass.  And thankfully it is a process that all human experiencers will go through ---eventually.  No exceptions! Right now, the entire population of human experiencers are currently  in the state of ASS-cending on various levels.  Sadly, those who have succe...
