Christina Muir is a greatChristina Muir is a great singer, and she seems so warm and friendly, wise and full of fun, just like her mother. (Of course I only know Ann Muir through records and the internet, but anyway.)
I lived with Christina for aI lived with Christina for a few years in the late 90's. My happiest memories are of coming home and hearing that sweet voice. She has so much talent and can sing anything! I loved hearing this interview - however I really miss her so much now.
Very nice. As an organicVery nice. As an organic gardener myself, I found the story of growing $80,000 of Kale on two acres (if I heard that right) quite awesome. I can imagine how traumatized I would be if my neighbors killed the land right next to ours. It's all beautiful forestland on all four sides right now.

I went to a 40 hour mediationI went to a 40 hour mediation training this past summer and bought that book from the trainers. I hadn't thought about it ahead of time, but as soon as the training started I realized that it was peacemaking. One thing I noticed about the tools that are taught is that different forms of love are used such as gratitude, empathy, acceptance, patience and not judging, persuading or making decisions for them. Thanks for bringing Jennifer to us.
I'm not sure about the question, Jo, but I'll take a stab at it. Would mediation work for the Irish? I think the answer is that it has, that a good part of what has facilitated the slow, even painful, progress toward a resolution of the English/Irish/Northern Ireland dispute has been mediation techniques, with some methods and tools that are specific to that kind of conflict, as Jenny discussed. Non-mediation techniques, used by both sides, like war and bombings and imposed decisions by one side or the other, have mainly aggrevated the tensions. There is so much more we have to learn about peace and working things out, but mediation is definitely helping us on our way.
