We've chosen not to have any advertising on our blog - okay, except Marcia's inspiring book!! - but we do support the idea of Global Giving.
Basically, what they do is match donors with nonprofit organizations around the world.
What do you have to give?

Hi Folks:
So far as I know, Facebook was the first to introduce the concept of the ‘Like’ button to user posts and comments, and it’s such a good idea that it’s been adopted by others as well. Google+ uses the ‘+1′ button instead, but it’s the same idea. The [...]
Hi Folks:
Saturday once again, and time for this week’s ‘Being Green‘ post. It’s usually posted on Fridays, but not always…

Hi Folks:
Friday once again, and time for this week’s ‘Being Green‘ post. The title for this week’s post came from a webinar I watched this week called, “What is Biophilia, and What Does It Have To Do with Sustainability and Illusions of Nature in Architecture?“ It was the title [...]
Hi Folks:

Hello Dear Ones!
Mike and I are very much into innovation and inspiration. Anything fun, informative and uplifting nurtures us. As a result we find ourselves watching TED and other web videos rather than the television these days. When I saw the following YouTube video – attached here for your viewing pleasure – I [...]
Greetings, Dear Reader!
Thanks so much for stopping by!!
If you’ve read these posts before, you’ll know that every Sunday Marcia and Mike pick a common topic and write about it individually. Neither reads the other’s posts until both are finished. The title for this week’s talk, ‘The [...]
Greetings! Friday once again… where did the week go? Ah well, as the saying goes, there are 168 hours in a week; what you do with them is up to you. I was sitting at my computer, staring at a blank screen (that adamantly refused to write anything on itself), when my [...]
Hi Folks:
Well, another week has flown by! The Vancouver 2010 Olympics begin today, and there’s been a lot of effort put into making this Olympics the ‘greenest’ one ever. There are, of course, two opposing views on their efforts. On one side, Daily Planet has created an extensive chronicle [...]
Hi Folks: Well, Friday has come around once again and that means it’s ‘green day’ here for us. Without question the biggest news in the world this week is the aftermath following the earthquake in Haiti. If you’re interested you can find links to disaster relief sites here. It’s events like this [...]
