"Don't it always seem to go that we don't know what we got 'til it's gone. They pave paradise and put up a parking lot."

TreehuggerTV: Sustainable Skateboards

TreeHugger TV gets on board with Comet Skateboards and learns how a sustainable skateboard company is bringing different hoods together. Comet uses sustainably harvested bamboo and non-toxic resins to make its hip pin-striped topped skateboards. Their manufacturing plant also uses a 10KW solar panel array to fuel the process. But Comet is also a place based company and is just as dedicated to making a positive impact on its community. In addition to raising funds and for a sustainably designed skate park in downtown Oakland CA, Comet has collaborated with others to put on Hood Games. Hood Games 4 took place in Oakland, and brought together a truly remarkable gathering of the skateboarders, parents, and friends for a full day of music, art, and of course -- ecofriendly skateboarding!

OSHO: Tai Chi

The Chinese Taoist tradition has a method known as "Tai-Chi". It is a method of centering, a method of witnessing. They say do whatsoever, but remain conscious of the center at the navel. Walking, be conscious of the center at the navel. Eating, be conscious of the center at the navel. Fighting, be conscious of the center at the navel. Do whatsoever you are doing, but remain conscious of one thing: that you are centered in the navel. Again, if you are conscious of the navel, you cannot think. The moment you begin to think, you will not be conscious of the navel. - Osho.com
