What gets in the way of peace?

Judgement.......

When we accept all paths as leading to enlightenment
there will be peace.

No one way is better than the other as all paths lead
to God.

Solar Panels Citizenre on TV~Ed Begley

SOLAR ON A TIGHT BUDGET?
CITIZENRE SOLAR RENTAL SHOWCASED ON
HGTV'S "Living With Ed"

November 5, 2007 -- A young married couple in their first home, shoestring budget, baby on the way--how can they possibly afford to add solar energy to their house?
"By renting it", said Ed Begley Jr., six-times Emmy nominated actor and environmentalist.
In the November 5 episode of "Living With Ed", host Ed showcases solar in this new form. "Putting the 2 kW Citizenre system on this house symbolized a 20-year dream for me, to help put solar power within reach of anyone."
The young family in Venice, CA, shows exactly why renting solar makes so much sense. Paul Eckstein & Hala Khori have just moved into their 2-bedroom bungalow. He is a writer, she is a yoga instructor and their first baby is due anytime. How is this the right time to be adding an expensive solar system to their home?
"Renting the system just makes so much sense", said Paul. "We really wanted to do the right thing, to make our new house is as green as possible. But we sure didn't have the cash to buy a system, or even to carry loan payments. This way, Citizenre takes care of everything--they install it, fix it, all that. And our savings increase every time the rates go up".
Paul and Hala worked closely with Citizenre's local system installer Stephen Gates, who designed and installed their solar system. "The family should save about 30% - on their electricity each month, for $25.00 per month," Gates explained. "Since they averaged $28 per month for that same amount of electricity, they are already saving a little each month".
"It's so great that we can actually have solar on our first house", said Hala. "By renting, we actually save money- and that's money we can save for something else. And we know we're still doing the right thing for our baby's future. That's the very best part of the story".
"I have been involved with residential solar power for over 20 years, and put my own system on in 1990. You can't make gasoline in your house, but you can make electricity on your roof - I've been doing it for 17 years," said Begley. "I've been frustrated by how many people come to me for advice on solar, only to find it is out of their financial reach. With Citizenre's rental program, all that changes. Anyone who wants to make clean, green power in their home can do it. With the help of Citizenre, I hope we duplicate Paul and Hala's story nationwide beginning in 2008."

The Eckstein family and "Living with Ed" are showing that solar electric systems can now fit in everyone's budget.

Do you believe in destiny?

Mon, 16 Jul 2007 20:35:10 -0000

We are masters of our own destiny, we choose our life's
lessons, our parents, where we are born, our parents,
and all that we do in each lifetime. We truly wouldn't
want to get up each day if we thought it was all mapped
out now would we? And that is what Fate is. All mapped
out, and by who or whom?

I asked the question, got the answer and it is done by
going within, getting quiet and meditating to find that
quiet space. I love the zaadz space because I get to
share with all of you each day and being sparked
into that creative life.

Where did you grow up?

zinzinnati

With one brother and six sisters all in a row! We grew up out in the country
and played baseball, kick the can, caught lightening bugs, frogs, turtles,
swam, got to fish for catfish, iceskate on ponds at neighbor's houses, and
just lay on the ground and look at clouds. Miss you Big City!!

If you were famous, what would you want to be known for?

Wed, 11 Jul 2007 21:12:27 -0000

For inventing a simple blood test that shows an overgrowth
of candida albicans.

It is my understanding that this is where a lot of our
physical problems arise from and when we keep this
in balance we are healthier.

If you could give a gift to the world, what would it be?

Ron Paul Working on Health Freedoms ~Write Speaker Pelosi Today

Mon, 09 Jul 2007 18:33:14 -0000

Hello! This message is from Ralph Fucetola, JD., one of the trustees of the Natural Solutions Foundation. Dr. Laibow and Gen. Stubblebine are boarding a plane in Europe just about now and they asked me to convey this message to you.

This morning I received an urgent email message from Congressman Ron Paul's Washington, DC office. The bottom line: a newly introduced bill, HR.2900 should now be a focus of health freedom activities.

We need your help in getting a message through to the House leadership. Please reference HR.2900 and ask that HR.2900 be "brought up under a regular order" to be considered by the House WITH amendments. The bill is expected to be moved on Tuesday, so this is an URGENT matter.

Speaker Pelosi's office in DC is: (202) 225-4965 Eemail her at: AmericanVoices@mail.house.gov

Email the following message:

---------------------------

"I urge the House leadership to allow HR.2900 to be brought up under a regular order so it can be fully debated and amended. I support Ron Paul's Health Freedom Protection Act, HR.2117."

---------------------------

Currently the bill is scheduled for 40 minutes of debate and NO amendments, which means Ron Paul's important Health Freedom Protection Act, HR.2117 or other amendments, such as that proposed by attorney Jonathan Emord, would not be allowed to become an amendments to this bill. HR.2900 is the House companion bill to S.1082, the FDA "revitalization" bill that breezed through the Senate last month. That Senate bill was amended to protect Dietary Supplements and we want to make sure the House bill will also be amended to protect supplements and natural remedies.

To do that, HR.2900 must be "brought up under a regular order" so it can be fully debated and amended.
