RE: Not in Kansas anymore

I can easily see a type of technology based on smart phones that could track the path of severe weather as it traveled on the ground in real time.

Living in tornado alley, it can be nerve wracking to stay up all hours of the night just listening to the weather reporter telling you that the storm is in this town, seeing your town up the road and listening for the sirens to go off or to hear the newscaster say "if you live in area x, now is the time to seek shelter." Then racing…

Take it out of my microchip thanks!

I think that currency will go the direction of electronic transfer to the point that those transactions will be immediate and basically unseen by the consumer. I'm not thinking that its my favorite plan, but its what I see coming.

I find it interesting that so many of the people discussing the US use the example of falling use of credit cards as a reason why things are about to change. I think that isn't necessarily the case. Most of the people I know are paying off their…

Dinner 2020 - just walk to the back yard

As I sit down to dinner, I remember a summer evening in 2009 I spent with a friend of mine outside of Seattle, Washington. It was late around 8:30 or so, but we went outside into her garden and picked cherry tomatoes and leaf lettuce out of her garden for dinner. Who would have thought it would have lead to what I have now.

After dinner I will have to go out and herd the chickens into the coop and secure the goats for the night. Then go out the side gate to check the drip…

Office Farm

I'm in the process of convincing our green initiative leader (each branch office has one) that we should make a concerted effort to grow food in the office. This morning I planted strawberries and tomatoes and will plant some herbs tomorrow morning when I get in. Many of my office mates have green thumbs (unlike me) and I hope they will take up the challenge of who can have the best "office farm".

While this may not directly aid in the food security of the local neighborhood,…

Mary, it doesn't look like you're getting mission credit for your blog posts. You can get credit by going to the post and putting in the mission and the activity you want the post to apply to and then pressing the button-- I think it says apply credit or something. You should see it-- I think right above the points area.

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.
