I invited Liv Kellgren, Conscious Environments, to give my office the "feng shui" treatment. I wanted my office to be inviting, given I’m here for about, well too many hours a day right?? Liv agreed to make my office the case study.

Like many of you, I’m a little in the dark about feng shui, so I invited Liv over to help me understand it a little more. This is the first video of my interview with Liv. I’ll be posting the second one tomorrow.

Liv will be speaking to The Meet Market on Friday, September 12th at Shadowridge on creating an ideal office environment. I invite you to come for this fascinating meeting.

Let me know what you think, or what questions you might have for Liv about feng shui.

It’s Friday. I’m off to the Score Women’s Breakfast to network with 150 other women. If you aren’t there, you are really missing a great event. Check out Score’s website for information on the May breakfast.

Given it’s the end of the week, I wanted to share a new screen cleaning product. It’s my advice you go out and purchase one of these "green" products for your home office. You won’t regret it. This is a great product. Enjoy!! And…let me know what you think of this screen cleaner. I guarantee it’s completely environmentally friendly.

See you around town!!

I recently interviewed Adam Englund, Euphlotea’s President. We spoke about his vision to build a floating airport to serve San Diego County. I hope you find it as informative as I. Please leave your comments below.

Adam brings three decades of environmental activism, visionary engineering, critical legal analysis and transportation advocacy to his position as the promoter of San Diego’s International Offshore Floating Airport.

Englund’s inspiration was born at the Oceanic Institute in Waimanalo, Hawaii, where, in 1971, a futuristic development project called "Hawaii’s Floating Cities Program" caught his imagination. Eight years later, after graduating from the University of Pacific, Englund wrote his International Law thesis at Cambridge University on the jurisdictional and administrative issues raised by artificial islands and floating cities.

Englund’s vision of oceanic development contingent on environmental protection embraces both the inevitability of open ocean colonization by humans and the consequent need for enlightened regulation. Accordingly, when San Diego’s search for a site for the development of a new international airport found little consensus and even less support for any one land-based alternative, Englund realized that the time for the founding of Euphlotea was upon him.

"We have reached that critical moment in time when real estate values in this region – both in terms of tangible dollars and in terms of environmental preservation and quality of life have exceeded the economic and environmental costs of locating an international airfield in the open ocean," says Englund. "All of a sudden the economic mandate for a world class airport facility has intersected with the existing, practical and cost effective technologies available to build and operate the facility offshore."

Englund’s legal career began in Los Angeles, where he focused on entertainment law; since arriving in Encinitas in 1997, his practice has evolved to general business and intellectual property transactions. In Los Angeles, he also was a leader of environmentally sound transportation initiatives through both public agencies and private organizations.

Englund lives with his wife, Victoria and daughter, Arielle in Encinitas. A former mountain bike racer, he now enjoys surfing, running on and cleaning up the beach.
