 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;post&raquo; (Because we had a keep it friendly box before.)  The "keep it friendly" box.   I have the formation of a thought in my head about what it could be transformed further into.    There is a site that I saw some time ago that had a similar sign encouraging people to be aware of what they were posting on the website.    The current phrase is....  "Stop. Take a deep breath.  [several descriptions of what it means to be loving]  Sound like your post?"]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;post&raquo;  In reading some of the current posts dealing with waking up to the insanity of the world, I am taken back to a poem I wrote many years ago.   <strong>No Time</strong>&nbsp;

 <link>http://www.avanoo.com/o/c60543518019e0da622821aec2a87a0a</link>
 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;post&raquo; 
 From <em>Science News</em>, February 22, 1986 
 Elephant calls that humans can't hear 
 Don't look now, but the largest land animals may be talking behind our backs. Cornell university researchers have discovered that elephants produce low-frequency sounds inaudible to humans but well suited to communicating within herds. 
 The sounds, probably produced by the elephant's vocal cords, set up a sympathetic vibration in its forehead. Seeing that flutter and feeling a throbbing sensation in the air led Kathar ...]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;post&raquo; (previously deleted, recently reposted)  
 The trick to this program is making sure that the kids are learning TEKS material in addition to the other things that they learn. So, today, when we talked about our voices, I used to Science TEKS material as an example to help them.&nbsp;    We defined our voices as what we loved to do. What we often found ourselves doing, what made us happy. The answers were as varied as you could expect from a group of 9 kids - we had representation from writers, builder ...]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;post&raquo; We played a game of telephone. The first time around, I told the kids that they could only whisper a message to the person next to them once for it to be passed on... and to make things interesting, I told the other kids to say "blah blah blah blah blah" as loud as they could. Which they thought was hilarious.&nbsp;  I don't even remember M's original phrase that he came up with. It had something to do with photosynthesis. At one point, one kid asked "I'm a gangster because I like photosynthesis?!...]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;post&raquo; The basic font size for text has been reduced to that of other sites (from 13 pixels to 11 pixels).

 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;post&raquo; When we launched the new home page last weekend, I had included the following, which I wrote somewhat in haste:  "Collectively, our capacity to make a better world is vast. Together we can write the book on how to thrive in these changing times. We can develop new stories and help to create a positive future."

 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;collab&raquo; This is a place where we come to honor and reflect upon the role of a&nbsp;particular&nbsp;aspect of the natural world so that we deepen our connection to it.

Contributions might include images, video clips, poetry, scientific information on the importance of this "honoree" in the web, etc.&nbsp;Also, feel free to make suggestions for what you ...]]></description>

 <description><![CDATA[&laquo;post&raquo; Today, right now, you meet a young boy named Henry. He probably isn't more than five but he looks at you for long enough that you can<em> feel</em> his gaze. You look back at him and notice that his eyes hold wisdom. A deep, piercing wisdom that does two things to you that most people's eyes don't do.  The first is that it shocks you. You turn away. You wonder why Henry is looking at you like that. You wonder what he sees. You wonder what his problem is. "Why are you not in a sandbox, kid?" you want to ask...]]></description>

The first idea is also spelled out in more depth on my business website under the tab "the Big Picture" <a href="http://www.onwingsofadream.com/">www.onwingsofadream.com</a>.
