When I first read the mission objective I immediately thought about the time a made a didgeridoo with my uncle Riccardo Moretti (http://www.myspace.com/tribalneed). He is a musician and commonly uses the didgeridoo as one of his instruments. When offered me the opportunity to help make one with him I was thrilled because being a musician myself I love these kind of things.

A case study of how villagers are preserving sacred groves(devara kadu) in Kodagu, Karnataka.

Personally speaking I am all for preserving the sacred groves because of the ecodiversity and the medicinal plants etc, but I sure wish all these villagers would come out of the trap of all their money going for so called…

I know the location of a time capsule in my home town that is to be opened the year I turn 100. I would be present for the opening of it. And in fact, some time in advance I would tell the city about it so they will have all the equipment necessary to break open the sidewalk, under which it is located. I will then go through the stuff inside with…

A blog that is updated weekly with news and updates would be great. While news…

I am OBSESSED with craigslist. No joke. I'm on their buying and selling ALL the time! I think it would be awesome to have craigbucks. I don't think it's that farfetched either. It's similar to the concept of PayPal. My husband sells tons of music equipment on eBay and keeps his money in PayPal, then when he wants to purchase, just uses the PayPal…

I decided to try and be a "farmpunk" and did some research on how to grow our own food. I have a friend that is really into this. She and her husband have a lot of school debt (he is becoming a Dr.) and they have two small kids with a third on the way. She stays home and is the ultimate homemaker. She makes all the kids clothes, gardens, harvests and cooks. Nothing goes to waste. Everything is organic. I found this process quite intriguing. So, along with her and some research I did on the…

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.
