Negotiating
Philosophy: By Dianne Irene
A new sensibility about
conflict reflects the ability to channel energy into a positive outcome
where resolution is the goal rather than ascertaining a victory of
political, personal, or egocentric origin. The power is in how one
reacts to situations in life and not always, what is happening. It
is rather a comfort to see the higher functioning of individuals in
social groups. Read

Nicola
Tesla By Dianne Irene
Nicola Tesla was a brilliant
physicist, mechanical, electrical engineer, and inventor. He was born
under the Austro Hungarian Empire and later became a United States
citizen. He has been considered, “The Father of Physics”
and even credited with, “the man who invented the twentieth
century.” While the mastery of science came quite naturally
to Telsa, he struggled with completing school, handling stress, and
having relationships with his family. He seemed to live barely inside
of everyday reality and experienced visions that were apparently tied
to his ideas. He would envision an idea in great detail before he
would begin its actual creation. He was so intense that he even suffered
a nervous breakdown early in his career. Telsa was also unconcerned
with finances and dedicated himself instead to his work. He made claims
about possible advances that no one had conceived of exploring. While
he can be credited for contributions that range from electromagnetism,
robotics, x-rays, radar technology, ballistics, and even with inventing
radio, he was also seen as a mad scientist. Read
