Anam Cara Making sense of life
In Corrogue this Anam Cara or Soul Friend is coming to his senses.This morning it is a wet and windy Sunday morning. Each Sunday morning is an extended morning of rest. It is a morning of practice. I practice slowly coming to my senses. It is a morning in which I practice deep caring for the body and the soul.
This is a practice of awareness of the sensationalism of life moment to moment.We are beings of the senses. We make sense of our world via the senses. The senses are gateways. They keep us locked into a certain reality but they can be the medium of freedom from the limitation we call "our life." For too long religion has labelled the senses as something "not quite nice." For too long we have separated our senses as being something "not spiritual." Many of our religions have done the same with the sensational experience we call sex.

I teach what Van Morrison calls "A sense of wonder." An Anam Cara teaches you to honour...

The Wireless Home
It was only a few years ago that Real Estate agents and Builders were promoting the "Wired" feature as a must have when buying a new home. Wired meant that the home not only had cable running throughout it, but also Cat-5 wire. Cat-5 wire consists of four pairs of wire that are sheathed into one bundle, and is used for interconnecting multiple computers and computer peripherals throughout the home. Electricians went to great length to run Cat-5 throughout new homes, and homebuyers paid a handsome premium for it. Now the latest buzz from the Computer and Networking world is, "UnwireYour Home", as the Computer/Internet world rapidly moves to wireless interconnections.
Most of the leading Personal Computer (PC) providers are major players in this paradigm shift. They are selling new technology from leading networking equipment companies that enable homeowners to wirelessly connect their Personal Computers to their Home Entertainment centers. Through a Wireless Media Adapter, connected...

Behavioral Economics? What's That?
A new science sheds light on some of our most important decisions. Behavioral economics is the study of how and why people make money-related decisions. As a science it is relatively new, although some of its findings have been known intuitively by good salesmen and marketers for many years. Much of what has been learned from recent studies, however, has not yet been applied systematically in the real world of business. Here are some of the things the studies have shown thus far:
Confirmation Bias
We tend to act economically in a way that confirms current belief. When buying the same model of Mecedes, for example, current owners, who presumably already believe in the value of a Mercedes, pay $7,000 more, on average, than new Mercedes customers.I'm sure you can imagine the value of this knowledge to companies that sell high-priced items.
Decision Paralysis
Studies show that, given four samples of jam, for example, people actually spent more than when they... Behavioral Economics? What's That?
