Orchids in Cairo

Ours is a floral home, a house that's as close to tropical as you can be indoors in Atlanta. We have Marginata's, Neon Janet Craig's, Orchids you name it. It's good, it adds an aliveness to a home. I assume everyone knows indoor plants clean the air in a home. In Canada high rises are required to have a certain amount of plants for each floor of the structure.

People make the mistake of thinking that companies put plants in offices for adornment. To make it pretty. No... There is a hierarchy when it comes to plants in offices, Usually the most important people have the biggest and best plants in their offices. This is because NASA Research has proven that any plant but the (bigger more leafy plants are better), cut down on a person becoming sick at the office. Companies put great plants in the boss and the moneymakers offices because they want them to show up for work. Here's a tip Cold and flu germs stick to plants. The more plants, the cleaner the air and less sickness in the home. Google it.
I was listening to President Obama this morning, he was speaking in Cairo at one of the University's there. I liked, that he seemed at ease, something he wasn't yesterday with the Saudis, he had a very closed stance and energy. The last time I saw him in the Middle East he seemed a bit closed. One of his strategies in the Middle East is to reach out to the youth, the college students and academics amongst them. These people set the tone for a society, they are the trend setter, leaders and moneymakers in Societies. I think in looking at Mr. Obama's administration and how they do business, they've noodled this out, as the best way to reach out and change the future in the Muslim World.
