Global Warming (click here for more on this) has become a political football within the US political establishment. Despite the refusal of the Bush administration to sign up, the Kyoto treaty on climate change was finally salvaged by making enough compromises to these interests. Instead of reducing carbon emissions by some 5%, they estimate the new revised treaty will reduce them by only 3%, assuming everyone fulfills their obligations. Hope.com! To actually stop global warming these emissions will have to be reduced by 60%! So, while the people of the pacific island of Tuvalu are preparing to abandon their island to rising sea levels, the president of the US wants "more studies" done before he is convinced of the need to act. (By contrast he doesn't seem to think that the implications of putting weapons into space needs any more study at all).
Meanwhile, the meeting between the leaders of India and Pakistan (click here for more on this) failed to resolve the nuclear stand-off between them.

Women's Conditioning
A new course, "Celebrating the New Woman," held recently at the meditation resort, attracted over two dozen women from India and several from East Asia. Central to the course was the issue of the Eastern woman's conditioning. Various meditative methods were used to provide women with "tools" through which to become more aware of their national, religious, familial and caste conditioning, and to dissolve the identification with it.
A mother and daughter-in-law, unknown to each other separately booked the workshop. When they saw one another at the course, it is difficult to tell which one of them was more surprised. Nevertheless, both of them enjoyed the one-day course immensely, discovering that, for the first time, they could relate to each other as individuals. Sharing as women brought them together with a new understanding.
