Great Idea, Challange to the Evoke Developers.

And idea...



This is just an idea I'm throwing around after looking at World Without Oil and Evoke.



But the basic concept is to talk to facebook, and possibly any other small games development sites and maybe even Blizzard to see if they'd get in on it.



And create a game. A real honest to goodness game, like farm ville only dealing with real farming and real farming techniques and issues in Africa.



Give people so much money to buy a plot of land when they sign… Continue

Unexpected health heroes

Year after year of heroic (and let's face it, very often American) movies have taught us that in the face of adversity, there'll always be a lone hero to save the day/the country/the president/the world. Of course as exciting as it feels to watch it happen, it's only a movie : until the early 21st century, it was hard to get actual data on how people - you, me, everybody - would react in the case of a pandemic : information that would prove invaluable to scientists and health professionals all… Continue

EVOKING all agents! This is important and will only take 5 minutes of your time.

I am calling on everyone who stumbles on this post to help Agent Edayis.


This coming May 5th through 7th, the Davos Debates will be held at Dar es Salam, Tanzania. World leaders will be meeting to discuss on a World Economic Forum on Africa, and they are welcoming questions from everyone all over the world. A big factor on what questions go through, is votes.

Flash Mob Water Balloon Fight!

World Water Day 2020 Secret Event-


The plan is simple, but will take countless individuals to pull off.


On World Water Day 2020, groups of supports will come together in an organized manner to attempt a flash mob event.


Flash mobs are those crazy groups of people we see on the news or youtube.com that break out into dance in downtown New York or all freeze at once, as if time stood still.

Social Innovation (1)



Well, that's the thing, isn't it: know the world and you know its weaknesses. One, of course, cannot introduce a thriving parasol market in Wales, and one cannot introduce charity-pressure to a poorer community. Work with what we have, but make it better. Nothing's magically going to improve, nothing is magically going to get worse though either: and single actions…

World Water Day- Water Crisis

On World Water Day, everyone should save water in any way they can, and set a goal limit for how much they use in one day. This includes shorter showers, and turning the faucet off every spare moment when one doesn't need it. That's a small thing everyone should do. Another thing people could do is to all donate perhaps a few water bottles to a charity, and all the gathered water would be shipped to other places in the world, and be used to last some time for the people who lack sanitation.… Continue

"Mr Black Swan" has a radical view on money and finance - but it does not go down so well with the World Bank :-)

Nassim Taleb is a quantitative analyst with a long experience in finance. He is the author of a very successful book, The Black Swan, where he contends that most of the variability in the money world is concentrated in very few, very large events. They can't be predicted, or mitigated.



In 2009 he gave an iconoclastic talk at a World Bank conference on… Continue

Celebrate Water with Ebb and Flow



World Water Day. A celebration of water. A celebration of life. For without water there can be no life. The celebration must flow like water but also affect the mind. It must have the ability to be calm but then raging the next. To show people how important it is through its absence and then the beauty it can provide through its bountifulness.





A week prior to the event, water shipments stop. All those…

World Water Day 2020

My idea for a spectacular World Water Day 2020 is to bring together various events under one umbrella focused for one day. Different charities and regions host their own World Water Day Event but use the collective good will to raise awareness.

These include various ideas like:

  • Carry5's Walk for Water
  • Biking, walking riding or giving up birthday presents for mycharity:water
  • World's largest toilet queue
  • ?

In 2009, the World Water…

Save the children!

In this day and age, children are inspirations to life. Even under the most harsh and unexpected conditions, these children offer us hope.



One of the ways we can help save the hungry children is through the global organization, World Vision. The most common option is by supporting a child. By donating around $1 a day, you can help a child in need. Some of our basic needs will be provided to these children. For example, clean water, nutritious food, learning opportunities, etc. It's as… 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.

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.
