Empowering Women

Its amazing how a species has claimed to evolve w/o showing evidence of evolving as a wh***. Women's rights should be respected in their entirety. Women are the vesels of life and without them there is no hope for survival.

Although I was unable to donate, I did share some stories I read about empowering women in the world.

A loyal friend and supporter of many on and off evoke, koshy is a master network builder, colleague, and independent…

IMAGINATION 004 - WATER CRISIS


WATER CRISIS - In 2020, I like the idea of hundreds of windows, dressed up to look like rivers & waterfalls. Salmon jumping, fish swimming and of course families fishing, drinking and cooking near the river.

ACT 003 - POWER SHIFT


POWER SHIFT - We make many of the things we used to purchase. So we're recycling the containers we do need to buy and reducing overall purchases. This takes some team work, and helps us develop our relationship with each other in the process. Our biggest change as far as power use is concerned is
the back up kerosene heater we started using last year. O.K. not so amazing but it's off the grid :)

LEARN 10

Evoke has been an interesting experience indeed. I'm sure Season 2 will be even more fun after the feedback the other evoke agents have suggested. I know that for one thing, actual gaming type of gameplay would be nice. Kind of like how you would go on facebook and play the facebook games like farmville. Things that help make it more interesting. By incorporating the ideas of evoke into the game objectives.


A perfect example is a game online called Ayiti- The Cost of Life ,…

It takes a village to save a city

My hometown of Oakland California has always had a lot of homegrown solutions. We're practically notorious for it, and if you know what I'm talking about then there you are, and if you don't, I'm not going to link to it because the less said about our more infamous moments, the better.



I will say that we've grown up a huge number of charter schools (some good, some not so) and back a couple of decades ago we grew up the historic peace-making agreement between the Blood and Crip gangs,… Continue

Anti-choice IS Anti-life

One of the great schisms of US politics is referred to as the "Pro Choice / Pro Life" divide.

There's a lot of verbal jockeying from both sides to use different words and reframe the issue in more sympathetic ways. People who believe that all human life deserves government protection, even before birth, want to cast the other side as being "Anti Life." And people who believe that women should have the right to choose what happens to their own bodies, even if that means making a choice to… Continue

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.
