Celebrating with the inlaws in Texas via solar farms

There's a lot of Texas currently unused - a blasted wasteland of baked earth, actually, not great for farming or living and the land is going cheap.

My hope for my family reunion with in-laws in Texas is that we spend it at a resort completely powered by solar farms that have taken over the unused parched lands of this state. Where no food can be grown, where no animal or habitat can flourish (possibly bc of climate change) we are at least harvesting the sun to power our air…

Training the Barbarian - and Storing the Energy

Ok, so the challenge is to power something you use every day or have used every day.

My idea stems from an earlier wish I had that fitness would go beyond the Wii Fit and its dorky remote wand thing, and in recollecting Star Wars Galaxies MMORPG where my character was ENDLESSly running across the deserts of Tatooine and I was always looking at her artificially scuplted behind.

I can see people groaning a bit at this, but what if the video game (which…

What am I eating March 10, 2020 ?

My hope is that by March 10, 2020 there will have been a successful food revolution by Jamie Oliver (See his platform: http://www.jamieoliver.com/jfr-beta/pdf/Jamie-Oliver_Platform-for-change.pdf ) and that more people have been taught how to cook. I was lucky enough to have been instructed in the basics, enough t o go on and teach myself via cookbooks, but he's uncovered some basic ignorance in…

Paying for a school to do its thing

For my act of monetary courage I went and helped this project on Kickstarter.com with a small amount of cash

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/OurGoods/trade-school-0

I was fascinated by the project bc I'm on an education kick now at work but the "school" itself had interesting future principles. If you have to give up something to learn something, you immediately have more invested and…

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Stinging Nettle

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
