What we put on our plate has repercussions for our spiritual well being. Conscious eating means being aware of how food gets to our plate -- and then choosing what we eat according to our values.
In the generic meeting-rooms of the Colorado Convention Center, a revolution is taking place in the Democratic Party. The people of faith have arrived.
A black president means anything is possible. It means that that last little parcel of earth -- which for 232 years has been solely inhabited by white men -- is now open to people of all colors.
Supporting Obama was easy. I am a Democrat. But, making up with Oprah has been a different story -- but I am ready to move on.
If Obama surge becomes a tidal wave, the hit squads will load up on him as they have on countless others. It's nasty and brutal, but it's what passes for politics American-style.
Like the nagging relative or the smug married friend, this inquiring mind was asking of each of these unmarried couples, "So why aren't you married?"
When I fly in an airplane I want the pilot with the most experience, not the one who can inspire hope in me that I get to where I am going. It's not really the job of a public servant to inspire.
Meg Whitman, Romney and their Fortune 500 crowd implied that their success at Bain, eBay, et al, would translate into a winning campaign. This has not happened. At all.
What is wrong with the chosen people? Chosen for pain? All the psychological troubles of Jewish men -- from Freud to Lenny Bernstein to Philip Roth -- must stem from the dubious ritual of circumcision.
Obama's spiritual concern underlies a deep compassion and toughness that comes from being in touch with and at ease with himself. This is what mindfulness is all about. It makes you strong in every way.
We're exploring in more depth the ideas from last week's article on how to stay on course during turbulent times. #2: Develop your courage muscles...
The truth is that getting women to buy a book or bundt cake is one thing. Getting them to completely change their emotional allegiance is another.
Why are white men allowed to look at the issues and judge for themselves and the rest of us are expected to take sides grade school style? That is like if all the stupid people voted for Huckabee.
"My religion is a personal matter to me," Sen. Obama told his followers. "Having said that, let me make this clear: I have accepted Oprah as my host."
Here is the third annual (highly subjective, highly varied) list of the year's fascinating solo women.
While it's perfectly all right for men to "masturbate," women doing approximately the same thing are now "cultivating" themselves?

Oprah has a huge devoted audience, and I commend her for not using that fact in order to push a political agenda. In other words, it seems she respects the free will of her fans.
That water b uffalo is yesterdays gossip news. The white women are tired of propping up her sorry a**.
Are you calling Oprah a water buffalo? Shame on you.
ORCA the whale is more appropiate...this sorry, tired women has Obama on repeatedly and then won't have any other viewpoints on...she has used her show as a political platform and advert for Obama over and over...she cannot claim any kind of objectivity in the matter...obviously, she can do whatever she wants on her absurd show...but do not dare to make some people wait until after the election to come on her show...
She was hardly relevant any longer...now she is a dinosaur.
People are obviously interested in what Palin thinks...it was proven when she got almost as many viewers as Obama got in his speech...so let her come on, grill her on her absurd stands on abstinence and abortion...would make great TV, and be a ratings bonanza.
No offense to Oprah, but really who cares? Palin should be on REAL NEWS SHOWS. Being interviewed by reporters asking the real questions. Like Jon Stewart from the daily show. (hahaha I LOVE HIM).
Seriously though Biden was on Meet the Press this morning with Tom Brokaw. Will Palin be on next week? I doubt it.
Palin is beyond pathetic. It's almost not fair for such a twit to be thrust in to the national stage like this, but I guess it will be just like the last 8 years.
I am glad Brokaw drilled him on the shady dealings he has with credit card companies...
the man has MUCH to answer for...FAR more serious than the silly Palin nonsense.
Not everyone in Alaska loves Palin. Check out the following site: http://webpages.charter.net/suasponte/
Everything you ever wanted to know about Barack Obama but were afraid to ask is located at STOP-OBAMA.INFO. There is even information there on John McCain and Sarah Palin. Knowledge is wonderful. Vote Smart!
I just have to read what Palin says about herself to know that she's not going to be my choice. She's scary.
