GreenHomeNYC and the Urban Assembly for Green Careers Want to Cut Your Building’s Energy and Water Bills by up to 40%.

If you are a building owner, manager, coop/condo member, super, bookkeeper/comptroller, or just want to learn how multifamily buildings use and waste energy and water, you need to take the Energy Efficient Building Operator class held every Thursday night from 6-8pm for ten weeks starting April 26th. 

Multifamily buildings in NYC use 3-6 times more energy and water per square foot than our single family counterparts, and very simple steps can help you reduce those costs.  This class is not designed to sell you products, but rather, to walk you through a sensible series of steps and make a plan to reduce your costs.

Register here!

This class is designed for the introductory to mid-level building manager, super, cooperator, or generally interested resident.  In cooperation with the Urban Academy (UA) for Green Careers, GreenHomeNYC has gathered the best building specialists in the City, who will teach the class to the UA high school  students from 5-6pm, then teach the class again from 6-8pm in a more advanced form.  Need a refresher?  Come early!  Already know your stuff?  Come at 6!

Classes will start promptly, so please be on time.  Registrants will be given directions to the class, which will be in the UWS in the mid-80’s. Not only is it convenient to many trains, but for $50/class or $450 for all 10 (and you architects get 1.5 AIA continuing education credits per class if you come along) it’s the best bargain in NYC.

Below are the proposed class schedules and subject matter:

Energy Efficient Building Operator Classes:

Date Subject
4/26 Building Science Fundamentals: Heat loss, stack effect, general building inefficiency
5/3 Energy and water usage: monitoring and benchmarking
5/10 Building Envelope – Windows, Doors, Roofs, Porches, and Everything else
5/17 Central Heating Systems
5/24 Domestic Hot Water Systems
5/31 Energy Efficiency Strategic Planning
6/7 Water Efficiency
6/14 Lighting, Appliance, and Electricity usage/efficiency
6/21 Health and Safety
6/28 Comfort and other Occupant Education Issues

Accelerated Learning – What Does it Mean to You?

Accelerated Learning – What Does it Mean to You?

By Michelle LaBrosse, PMP®, Chief Cheetah and Founder of Cheetah Learning, and Kristen LaBrosse, CAPM®, Co-Author

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the words, “Accelerated Learning”? Perhaps you imagine a person zipping through a book at a rapid pace, soaking up every fact and concept at lightning speed.  Or perhaps you think of a child genius that graduated from college at the ripe age of 12.

The fact is, the techniques of Accelerated Learning are not only for the rare few that are gifted with a special genius at birth. Accelerated Learning techniques are concepts that anyone can learn with some practice and dedication. The basic idea of Accelerated Learning is to gain the ability to make it faster, easier, and perhaps most importantly, more FUN, to learn and master new skills. There are four basic components to Accelerated Learning.

1. Awareness – Before you are aware that you don’t know something, you are unconsciously incompetent. When you gain awareness of this incompetence, you move up on the learning scale to conscious incompetence. Awareness is the first, and perhaps the most important step, to learning, because when awareness combines with purpose, the drive to learn is then established in your mind.

2. Knowledge – This is where people accumulate facts about a specific topic.  Knowledge of a subject is exhibited by the ability to recall facts and to synthesize the information in the area well enough to answer test questions on the subject, and to communicate about the subject.

3. Skill – This is where people can use what they know to accomplish a specific task.

4. Mastery – This is where people can achieve consistent results with their skills. For example, think about the mastery you have achieved in driving a car. You most likely consistently produce successful results (getting to your destination) each time you drive.  In his book, Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell describes the”10,000-Hour Rule” which states that the key to success and mastery in any field is to practice for approximately 10,000 hours.

While many people know that learning requires time and attention to the subject matter at hand, many people tend to forget that it is not just about how hard you study and how many terms you memorize. The key principle to Accelerated Learning is that it is a whole-mind, whole-body, and whole PERSON experience. Below are some important tips to remember to be a successful Accelerated Learner.

Feed Your Mind.  It’s not always intuitive that what you put in your mouth will eventually affect your brain, but if you keep in mind the “whole-body” approach to learning, you will soon see how it is absurd to think that these two things wouldn’t be related.

The good guys in this whole body story are proteins and complex carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates supply the brain with a steady flow of glucose, the energy that your brain needs to function optimally. Proteins digest more slowly than carbohydrates, and improve the entry of important amino acids into the brain, which are used to synthesize neurotransmitters that are critical for clear thinking.

Refined sugar and caffeine, on the other hand, are the antagonists in the whole-body story. Your brain needs an even supply of glucose to function optimally. Both of these items make your blood sugar balance go haywire, which can affect your ability to concentrate, and can ultimately affect your mood.

Stay Curious! While you’re feeding your mind, don’t forget to feed your curiosity!  One of the worst things we can do as Project Managers is to call ourselves experts. As soon as we grant ourselves “expert” status, we immediately lose the spark that keeps us learning and keeps us looking for new ways to succeed. Make an effort to look at the world with beginner’s eyes.

Move to Groove.   Numerous studies are showing that even mild depression can accelerate mental decline, while excessive stress over time can lead to depression.   When you exercise at least 30 minutes everyday you can keep the blues at bay.   If you find yourself getting down, get up and move.   The more you move, the more you’ll be in your groove.

Take a Purple Break.  Just as your muscles need time to recuperate after a strenuous workout, your brain also needs rest periodically to function optimally. I learned a technique called “purple breaks” from a woman whose dad started an accelerated reading company almost 50 years ago.   A purple break is a 10 to 20 minute break that you take lying down with an eye mask covering your eyes.  When your eyes are in total darkness, the optic nerve has a chance to relax, which in turn relaxes the whole body. During a purple break your main job is to let go of all of the worries and stress of the day and relax.

Now when you see the words, “Accelerated Learning” what comes to mind? Hopefully the image of a healthy diet, exercise, periods of pure relaxation, all interwoven within moments of intense focus on the learning objectives of the skill that you are working to master.

Can We Save the Planet for a Buck a Person? Kickstarter Campaign for "Big MaMa Earth & ME" Kid's Eco-TV Show

Feb 23

Posted by 7star.wwwmaster@gmail.com in News, Press Releases | Comments off

Submit to redditShare on TumblrSubmit to StumbleUpon

FEBRUARY 22, 2012 – LOS ANGELES Is the Earth Day spirit still alive?  In today’s economy, will families donate $1 or more to save the Planet?  Mike Miller, co-founder of Big MaMa Earth Entertainment, is counting on it. Miller, known as Grandpa Mikey to his grand kids, is a TV infomercial producer, a past business consultant, and a devoted environmentalist his entire life. “Our environment is in peril – approaching a tipping point”, and, “our children, being the future of our planet, can show us the way”. To encourage everyone to take action, Miller and his team are developing the first Eco-Kids TV Show called, “Big MaMa Earth & ME”.

The TV show will engage, inspire, and empower children, teachers, and families to take action. It will teach them about environmental solutions they can implement in their homes, schools, and communities. The TV show will be a blend of a green Hannah Montana, Wild Kingdom, and Sesame Street.

The Big MaMa Earth “Learning Experience”, which is the hub of the TV show, has been portrayed by many as being an “Eco-Disney Act on Wheels”. Miller designed a cartoon-like solar powered 20’ trailer with a drop-down stage and a professional sound system . . . pulled by a new Ford  Eco-boost truck. To showcase the “Learning Experience,” Miller and one of his team members, the vocal artist Ross, auditioned children from local schools and theatre groups who were environmentally conscious – and formed the Eco-Earth Kids.  Original Eco-theme songs such as: Big MaMa Earth & ME, Big MaMa Earth is Crying Out, Go Green & Clean, Save the World, Change, and others are performed by Ross and the Eco-Earth Kids on the Big MaMa Earth stage. Big MaMa Earth Entertainment has 36 animated characters in the development stage of which Big MaMa Earth is the main character.  Her friends, “RainForest Tree-O”, “Sammy Sea,” and “Pukey Pollution” were released to support and interact with Big MaMa Earth at events and in the Eco-TV series. As the Eco-TV series grows in popularity, other animated characters will be released and additional walk-around theme characters will be produced to keep the Eco-TV series fresh, unique and exciting.

The Big MaMa Earth “Learning Experience” co-hosted 17 high-profile events in 2011 from the Aquarium of the Pacific – Kids Fun Run, Let Freedom Ring on July 4th at CBS studios, to ABC 7’s Spark of Love Toy Drive.  For 2012 they will be co-hosting the Dana Point Whale Festival on March 3rd & 4th and Earth Day at Balboa Park in San Diego on April 22nd. Miller enthusiastically invite the public to visit them at these important events. Miller believes the public will choose to support the creation of this TV show and has contracted with Kickstarter (an established social media funding platform that helps artist’s, companies, and entrepreneurs) to facilitate online pledges. To pledge $1 or more, go to the Big MaMa Earth Kickstarter website. Please watch the video and read the information.  On the top right side, you will see a button – “Donate $1 or more”.  Please click on it and begin a simple registration for Kickstarter and Amazon. You’ve just helped save our Planet.

Why should I care or pledge to create this Eco-Kids TV Show?: Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, humankind has over-consumed many of the earth’s natural resources to a point of exhaustion – with little regard for the long term effects on our planet and its inhabitants.  We must be good stewards of our planet and STOP this destructive cycle.  Our children are our future and they will learn through this TV Show.  Please do not think of it as a donation!  Think of it as an Environmental Protection Plan for future generations.  If you see the value in this TV Show, pledge – and be a part of History!

Are Miller and his team doing this only for the potential profit?  According to Miller, a large portion of the proceeds, which the show will generate through advertising, will be donated to the Big MaMa Earth Foundation to enhance environmental education in schools.

Big MaMa Earth is dedicated to empowering children and families everywhere to take action through the dissemination of factual and non-biased scientific information that is both enlightening and entertaining.  This initiative will bring about positive, incremental changes and will ultimately fuel humankind’s reconnection to Mother Earth.

Miller encourages kids, families, and corporations to review the website at www.bigmamaearth.org.  The “Events”, “Photo”, and “TV/Press” sections show how Big MaMa Earth and the Eco-Earth Kids are loved by children, families, and teachers – and how they inspire and empower others.

For more information about the Big MaMa Earth project, contact Mike Miller at 951-244-8444, or e-mail Mike at bigmamaearth@ca.rr.com

San Francisco leaders are supporting the 10th anniversary.  According to Mayor Edwin M. Lee,   “I applaud Green Festival on its tenth anniversary of bringing together key environmental thought leaders and the best in green economy innovations.” Supervisor John Avalos of the Board of Supervisors commented, “We welcome Green Festival back to San Francisco, it’s a great event to bring your families.”

Attendees browse everything from green, non-toxic home furnishings to organic clothing to Fair Trade gifts, children’s toys and much more.

“By bringing together all the parts of the next economy—the green economy—the Green Festivals follow the core principle of Mother Nature: unity of diversity,” says Green Festival co-founder Kevin Danaher. “Instead of waiting for elites to reform the economy from the top down, we are constructing a new economic model from the grassroots up.”

“Whether you go to shop, learn, or experience art and music, Green Festival has it all, it’s a great place to celebrate what’s working in our communities and find the sustainable solutions that fit your lifestyle,” says Denise Hamler, Green Festival Director.

The 99% Say Enough is Enough

Submit to redditShare on TumblrSubmit to StumbleUpon

We know the facts, but seeing them together is staggering: unemployment is firmly mired in the double digits and efforts to bring it down isn’t creating jobs; students leaving college, if they can even afford to go, have debts that would have seemed unimaginable just 15 years ago and when they don’t see any openings in their field they head straight for a McJob or the unemployment line; the climate crisis remains unaddressed by global leaders and the US Congress and President Obama contemplates whether or not to green-light the Keystone XL pipeline; we are heading into the 10th year of war spending (at $3 billion a week!); corporations fought hard to win Citizens United and the ‘right’ to spend unlimited funds to get candidates into office; wealthy men (sometimes brothers) encourage corrupt Governors to end worker protections; and banks and Wall Street continue getting huge bonuses and bail-outs. We know something isn’t working. Enough is enough.

We are 99% of the population and 1% is controlling the show! Enough is enough.

For years, solidarity was presumed to be a one-way street – North Americans supporting liberation struggles around the world – but this year support to those standing up is global and circular. In Cairo, young people, armed with the courage of their convictions, overthrew the Egyptian government and launched the Arab Spring in Tahrir Square, Egypt.  The power of their non-violent resistance, their ability to stay when it seemed impossible, is the inspiration we must take forward to say enough is enough.
