Celebrating Independce Day the Green Way

21310679888_eco-earth-friendly-events.jpgThe 4th of July is on the horizon with celebration soon to follow. With rise of environmental consciousness, the challenge is now finding ways to party in a green fashion. Be assured there are alternatives that will not impede on any fun that can be had while remaining economically sound supporting our pursuit for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Simply incorporate any of the following tips and be surprised how simple having a eco-friendly Independence Day can be.
Bring reusable dishware and utensils
Though it may seem obvious, disposable cups and plates produce alot of waste. True, they are handy and convenient. Still, at the end of the day, any materials that aren’t recycled pile up in a trash area. Instead, invite your guests to bring their own dishware. In the Middle Ages it was common practice for guests to supply their own dishes should the host not have enough to accommodate everyone. The mix of plates in a myriad of colors, designs and themes can also add another dimensions to the party. Try using the bamboo plates for a uniform look. Bamboo is a natural material that is attractive to boot. They are also, once washed, completely safe for reuse.
Green up your Grilling
There are few people who don’t enjoy a good BBQ and with the warm weather, Independence Day is the perfect occasion to grill. Still, the smoke exhaust from the burning coals release a variety of toxins and chemicals that harm the environment. This year, go for the organic charcoal options on the market instead and sacrifice none of the effectiveness. To take green grilling a step further, invest in a natural gas barbecue. These exude less energy then your average grill aswell.
Lighten up with local produce
Pass on the processed foods and go for natural, locally grown produce. They are a great alternative to the typical chips, dip and processed cheese plus they are far more healthy. As a separate benefit, food bought locally doesn’t have to endure long travels by air, train or in boats which lowers the amount of carbon being released into the air.
Travel in a pack One of the oldest tricks in the book, carpooling also save the emissions of hazardous gasses but it is a fantastic way to get the party started early. Encourage guests that live close to each other to ride together. Not only green, this is a great ways to talk and socialize. The conversations created in the travel will spill into the party making the event that much more interesting.

Hold onto your decorations
Whether you are spending your 4th of July at an outside setting or making plans at home, save your decorations for the future. Afterall, Independence Day comes around every year so why not take advantage of the elaborate pieces purchased, created and collected down the line. That sea of red, white and blue table settings, streamers and table cloths will be just as fantastic next year.
Ditch the water bottles for water jugs
Keep a large refillable water jug handy as opposed to handing out water bottles. The amount of waste saved is incredible. There are many stylish options on the market like those provided at catering events. Seek a beverage unit that has an attached ice compartment for keeping the liquid cool throughout the day.
Leave it to the pros
Rather then setting off your own fireworks, check local listings for places having firework displays. Not only will it save on the amount of gun power dispersed, you and your family can be dazzled by the elaborate light show from a big organization.

Prefab Green Housing is a Reality For the Environmentally Conscious

11310679889_ecofriendlytravel-crop.jpgYou can’t turn on the television or read a magazine today without hearing the term ‘green’. Cleaning products are green, cars are green, energy is green, and just about everything else that you can imagine is green and trying to be as environmentally friendly as possible. This is also true of housing, particularly prefabricated houses.
Most people don’t consider the construction of their home to be something of environmental concern, but when you think about the construction of most homes, you will see a lot of waste. Builders have too much lumber, they order too many supplies, and they have other practices that are not friendly to the world’s ecology. Prefab green housing is a way to end all of that waste though. When you order one of the prefab kits, you will not have to worry about ordering too much of anything because everything you need is in the kit and nothing more.
Less waste, while it is great for the environment, is also great on your wallet.

Higher Consciousness

01310679889_wdghvwekv.jpgLiving in the third dimension can be a blissful experience when you have power, health, wealth, comforts and freedom. That’s what the ruling families have manifested for themselves while the rest of the world struggles with poverty, disease, drug dependency, debt and servitude. The ultimate goal of the ruling families is not only one world government. It is complete mastery over the 3rd dimension of time and space. Notice how successful they have been at manifesting a Utopian 3rd dimension for themselves – money, yachts, private jets, castles, resorts, racehorses, corporations, gold, gems, servants and everything they desire. You are part of their manifestation. You and the rest of the world are literally at their feet. How did they do it? With their knowledge of the tools of Creation and Universal Laws.
Unless you understand how reality is manifested, your destiny and the destiny of the planet will be in the hands of the ruling families who do understand it.
THE UNIVERSAL LAW OF ATTRACTION
What do you think about? The answer is revealed by the life that you lead.

Catholic Church Sexual Abuses

Are we seeing the begiining of the end to church tax exemptions, special privileges, and the like? Can the Catholic church assure people that their kids will be protected? Is there a qucik fix? The Souls of White Folk

I attended my first Black History class in 1968 at the University of Maryland (UM). The class came about because black students demanded it in that tumultuous year. They were supported by a small but significant number of white students. Higher Expectancy Requires More Nursing

It is no doubt that the numbers of old Americans in nursing homes and long term care facilities has experienced a staggering increase, which is over 1.6 million. Adding to this figure is approximately one quarter of the total U.S. population which have access to checking services into one of these facilities. A Higher Standard?

In this day and age of unoriginality, the author asks whether it is time for us to actually live our lives for ourselves rather than for our parents and ancestors dreams and expectations. With the divorce rate as high as it is, with depression as prevalent as ever and dissatisfaction at an all time high, perhaps there is another way to live, a way to achieve a higher standard by thinking about the consequences of our actions.If you think your life is miserable or great, you are right. Life is whatever you think it is. The same is true for the state of the world. It is what humanity collectively thinks it is. Energy and all forms of matter attract like-vibrational energy. Our thoughts are energy magnets. They attract whatever we point them at.
Your thoughts are living things. When you step into a room full of people, you can sense the living atmosphere created by the collective thought waves of the people in the room. You may sense a calm or a tense atmosphere. The collective thought waves of the 6.5 billion people on Planet Earth also create an atmosphere and it affects everyone either consciously or unconsciously. Like the Borg in Star Trek, you can tune into this “collective consciousness” and broadcast ideas to others who will receive and act on them. You are a drop in the ocean of thought and the ocean of thought is in every drop.
The Universal Law of Attraction is working in your life right now. You are attracting the personal situations that you are experiencing. You are also attracting the global situations through your individual contribution to the collective mass consciousness. Think about what you are contributing. Once you are aware of this Universal Law and how it works, you can start to use it deliberately to attract what you want instead of what you don’t want.
Any thought you have, when combined with emotion, vibrates out from you to the universe. Like a boomerang, it returns whatever you focus on. All you have to do is allow yourself to expect what you want. Sounds easy, right? The hard part is becoming ‘doubt-free’. You must expect what you want without doubt, act like you already have it and be grateful for it. Like drops in the ocean, each and every person is individually responsible for their contribution to mass consciousness. By expecting a New World Order, an Antichrist, an Apocalypse and end times, your contribution to the collective consciousness is “dark”. Expect miracles. Expect a Golden Age.
When you assume 100% responsibility for everything you’re experiencing in your reality right now – absolutely everything – only then will you possess the power to alter your reality.
DECEMBER 12, 2012
The ruling families are in a race with time to manifest mastery over the third dimension…but something is happening “right now” that they hadn’t counted on. There is a transformation in human consciousness leading up to December 21, 2012. A ‘galactic alignment’ is expected to occur on that date which will mark the end of the 26,000-year Mayan calendar. Mayan timekeepers predict that Earth and humanity are being birthed into a dramatic and unified elevation in consciousness.
CHANGING YOUR BELIEFS
You are made up of billions and billions of “programmed” beliefs about what is real and what’s not real, what you should or shouldn’t be or wear or say or do. You have downloaded beliefs about how attractive you are, about your body, your intelligence, about God, sin, life after death, morality and class. You have been innundated with disaster scenarios about the future of humanity – a global depression, an apocalypse, Armageddon, end times, depopulation, nuclear war, an Antichrist ruler and other disempowering, fear mongering, toxic propoganda.
If you stop and look closely at your thoughts and beliefs, you will discover that instead of serving you, they serve the agenda of the ruling families. Although you may feel you are immune to religious and political propaganda, your immunity is overpowered by the repetition of messages that burrow into your subconscious just below your conscious radar.
The ruling families have taught you slave consciousness. You tick tock through life with alarm clocks, car clocks, work clocks, the TV clock, the cell phone clock, wrist watches, wall clocks and calendars. It’s “breakfast time”, “lunch hour”, “break time”, “traffic hour”, “news hour”, “happy hour”, “week end”, “dinner time”, “bed time”, “tax time. You sit in traffic, stand in line-ups, watch mind numbing TV trivia interrupted by endless commercials. You settle for a 14 day holiday out of the 365 days it takes for the Earth to circle the Sun. You trade your labor for digits at the bank. You celebrate birthdays, New Years, Valentine’s day, St. Patrick’s Day and countless other repetitive cycles of commercialized nonsense. From cradle to grave, you obediently tick-tock through life like an automaton, serving the ruling families. Despite the servitude, they have somehow convinced you that you are free. “None are so hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free.” – Goethe
YOUR PSYCHIC POWERS
You have the power to influence matter and the physical world with just the power of your thoughts. It’s called ‘telekinesis’. YOU WERE BORN WITH THAT POWER. All you have to do is awaken your pineal gland or “third eye”. Like an atrophied muscle, this unused part of your brain can be strengthened through exercise and by eliminating fluoride from your toothpaste and water supply. Telekinesis is the same mind-over-matter power that the ruling families have been using since ancient times to manifest their power over you and over the physical world. How do you think the stone tonnage of Egypt’s Great Pyramids was cut, carved, moved long distances, erected and positioned within fractions of an inch? Some of the stones weighed as much as 50 tons! Do you believe the media tales about how these Herculean stones were moved without drills, explosives, lasers, forklifts, cranes or steel cables?
The term ‘psychic powers’ conjures up negative images of black magic, gypsies, witchcraft, exorcists, faith healing hoaxes and sorcery. That is the reputation the corporate media has given it. Why? To discourage your interest in developing your personal power. Like any skill, your psychic powers develop with regular use and they atrophy from lack of use.
In their book, China’s Super Psychics, Paul Dong and Thomas Raffill describe the amazing psychic abilities of gifted children. The American magazine Omni got involved when the children were being tested to make sure there was no cheating. They quickly became convinced that the children’s abilities were entirely real. In one case, a child took a sealed pill bottle off a shelf at random and placed it on a table. After a few moments the pills passed through the glass bottle and settled on the table. The child then placed a coin on the table and it passed back through the glass into the sealed bottle. In another case, a thousand people sitting in an auditorium were each given a rose bud to hold. A six year old girl came on stage and with a silent wave of her hand, the thousand rosebuds slowly opened into full bloom before the eyes of the astonished audience.
By practicing concentration exercises and telekinesis, you can learn the mechanics of manifestation. Once you discover that you can move an object with the power of your thoughts, you realize that you can influence matter at a molecular level. You have the power to influence everything in the physical world from a molecule to the entire globe with just the power of your thoughts. You have the power to heal yourself and the Earth. It starts with the belief that you can do it and then actually “doing it”! Learn how to manifest the reality you want instead of the reality that the ruling families are manifesting for you.
