  Gordon Menzies was in the room as bankers, economists and Cabinet members deregulated Australia’s economy. And he was personally shaped by a greater, cultural, deregulation — the sexual revolution. Menzies argues that both changes are part of the same hard-line movement: Western Fundamentalism. As our economies and families are in flux, it’s time to question the assumptions that got us here.  
  Are you prepared to challenge your fundamentals?

  This is a snapshot of your personal and unique way of processing information. I’ve written it over a period of many years–tweaking it as I researched and learned more about our layers of learning. 
  I’ve taught violin, raised children, and given workshops (some for music students and some for authors of children’s books where we discussed the child’s development at various ages so that when they wrote a book, they knew the thinking of their characters). 
  Kids think differently in just a matter of a few months. What scared them at six years old at seven is just a matter of fact. What made them laugh at four is no longer funny at five. 
  Some topics include: 
  Step 1: - The Dream, Step 2: Creating the Vision (under your control)-What you need to 'activate' -Chatting with the birds-Drift–Driven – Design your life-What is the Gas that Runs the Motor that Feeds the Meter? The Meter, The Motor, The Gas-Today I identified with a gas station.-Life is better when in balance-Correction/praise-Activity/stillness-Humor/thoughtfulness-Guidance/independence-How we are wired-I feel Happy,I feel healthy,I feel Terrific !!-The four D's we can actually influence and one that we can't-Disappointed-Discouraged-Disillusioned-Depressed-Dismayed-Vulnerability - the birthplace of change-Auditory Learner-Do You Deserve a Break Today?-Words have power-Guidance-Do you see, hear, or touch to process?-Super Heroes work hard-Can they burn out or feel stressed?-Have fun while studying”-Capturing the moment-Confessions of a Super Hero-Habits vs Needs-Habits meet needs.-Input vs Core Message-What we listen to makes a difference-How They Are Wired-Give Written Instructions-Sequential Learner-Map People Change the World-Zig Zag Patterns-Planting Seeds and Habits-Kinesthetic Learner-Missed Modalities-The Internal Race-How can we force change without the brain going into a tantrum-Differences in Study Needs-The Dominant Ear-Creating our own reality-Dominant foot

  The Time of My Life - Dirty Dancing

  An engaging exploration into the enduring popularity of Dirty Dancing and its lasting themes of feminism, activism, and reproductive rights
  		 
  When Dirty Dancing was released in 1987, it had already been rejected by producers and distributors several times over, and expectations for the summer romance were low. But then the film, written by former dancer Eleanor Bergstein and starring Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze as a couple from two different worlds, exploded. Since then, Dirty Dancing’s popularity has never waned. The truth has always been that Dirty Dancing was never just a teen romance or a dance movie — it also explored abortion rights, class, and political activism, with a smattering of light crime-solving.
  		 
  In The Time of My Life, celebrated music journalist Andrea Warner excavates the layers of Dirty Dancing, from its anachronistic, chart-topping soundtrack, to Baby and Johnny’s chemistry, to Bergstein’s political intentions, to the abortion subplot that is more relevant today than ever. The film’s remarkable longevity would never have been possible if it was just a throwaway summer fling story. It is precisely because of its themes — deeply feminist, sensitively written — that we, over 30 years later, are still holding our breath during that last, exhilarating lift.
