Video Games Influence on Culture - We now finally live in a world where stuff from the 80's is actually considered "cool". How did this happen? I remember being a kid and obsessing over the next trip to the local arcade, just to give pac-man another go. It is absolutely amazing to see how video games are now a part of our culture.

Coffee And Espresso - All About The Coffee Delight - Coffee is one of the most popular drinks around, followed by soft drinks and tea. Just think about it: when you wake up in the morning, just to get you up and running, you have a cup of coffee. At lunch break, after you've had your meal, you serve another cup of coffee, not to mention the other ones you already had back at the office while working, without even realizing it.

Yet so often, at all levels, people complain that they are missing. Every human is a sovereign entity and is owned by nobody. Nothing but force can change that. Therefore people will choose to follow only those whom they trust and respect. Trust and Respect are earned by the consistent correct practice of value-based behaviour, including: - Treating all others as if they would wish to be treated. Being the behaviour they seek from others. Listening to what others have to say. Honouring others right to an opinion. How to Bust Bureaucracy - "Bureaucracy - any administration where action is impeded by unnecessary procedures" - Collins Concise English Dictionary In your own organisation, do you ever think "Why are we doing this?" or "Why aren't things moving as planned or desired? Do you notice people becoming more difficult to deal with? Do you sense a rising level of frustration? Has your workplace lost its shine? Perhaps it's becoming or already is bureaucratic. Often unnoticed in an organisation's growth is a tendency towards bureaucracy. It's rarely intentional, yet very common. Here are some other symptoms of bureaucracy: - Ineffective meetings - too long, too frequent, too little value. - Less direct and personal communication - too many emails or "memos". History of Cultured Freshwater Pearls from Japan - The first cultured freshwater pearls originated in Japan. Although the Chinese were the first to culture a product from freshwater mussels, these were not pearls. Their centuries-old Buddhas are not true pearls but shell mabes. Quite soon after their initial success with cultured saltwater pearls, pearls producers in Japan experimented with fresh water mussels and produced beautiful pearls. How the Ancient Roman Empire still influences our lives today - The Roman Empire, at its height, included about a fourth of Europe, much of the Middle East, and the entire northern coastal area of Africa. Its millions of people spoke many languages and worshipped different gods, but they were united by the military power and government of the Romans. The city of Rome grew from a farming village in central Italy to become the capital of the huge empire. The Roman Empire fell apart almost 1500 years ago, but it still influences our lives. More than 300 million persons speak languages directly related to Latin, the Roman tongue. Cutting Propagation for Bonsai - There are lots of methods to take cuttings for bonsai, this is the one that I have had the most success with.

The thermostat will be set at 75 degrees, which is especially useful for Japanese Maples. Pots and Soil: For the container I will be using a 1/2 size flat with a 36 cell pack. A Culture of Discipline - A "culture of discipline" is a phrase used by Jim Collins (Good to Great) in his study of great companies. All of the great companies, those that far outperform others, have a culture of discipline. This does not mean that they spend their time disciplining people. Celebrity Fascination and the Modern State of American Culture - Celebrities are people too, or so we've been told. Whether or not it's true, Americans love to think of them as something more than just people. We are fascinated by them. Fascinated by the choices they make, the company they keep and whether or not they succeed or fail. We watch them on the way up and watch them even more closely on the way down. We scrutinize them in every way, mindful of the mistakes they make even more than we are of the successes they create. So why are we are so fascinated by celebrity culture? Certainly part of it is the media, which reports on their actions as though the world's fate depended on it. A New Music of the Orient: A Touch of the West and a Dash of the Divine - A new musical fusion has arisen in New York and it's not the kind you can catch for ten dollars at a club in the West Village.

Lisa Li is a master of the pipa (Chinese lute) and a graduate of the Chinese Conservatory of China.
