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.

As far as I am aware Alchemy are not yet looking for specific EVOKATION projects. I believe these will begin to take form over the coming weeks. However it is not too early to be thinking about this. Personally I would begin to start focussing on one particular problem, form a team to work on it, develop innovative and sustainable solutions which would be "viable". Just a few early thoughts.

They're hoping the lack of aggregation will encourage more random interactions.
They're expecting the users to generate collaborative tools.
At least, thats what I'm hoping...
Btw, have you ever heard of "Where There Is No Doctor"? (http://www.hesperian.org/publications_download.php) If not, it's a great tool (basic, comprehensive, useful) that's used around the world. I want to create something similar for folks to use that describes how (and why) data can be collected and used that could be adapted to a variety of different program modalities. Let me know if you have any insights.
