Unprecedented, rare images of "uncontacted" ancient Amazon tribe emerge

The so-called Yanomami tribe are considered by experts as one of the largest isolated groups on the American continent. Now, experts warn they may no longer remain so, as their existence is threatened by criminal outsiders who are closing in on their land. The spectacular images of the uncontacted indigenous village have stirred pleas from local tribe leaders and human right advocates for a necessary government intervention in order to protect the community of people from illegal gold prospectors reports National Geographic. The Yanomami tribe is believed to consist of approximately 26,000-35,000 indigenous people inhabiting some 200-300 villages within the Amazon rainforest. Their territory is centered on the border of Brazil and Venezuela, just between the Mavaca and Orinoco rivers.

New Forms of Collective Housing in Europe by Birkhäuser. Here's Why Your Smartphone Is the Key to a Better Food World. Mark Sullivan had a plan to help Austinites eat more local food, but he didn’t plant an urban farm or open a locavore food truck to do so. He built a website. Sullivan cofounded growmingle, a new company that is using technology and digital “mapping” to connect people in Austin’s vibrant local food scene—including farmers, chefs, distributors, advocacy organizations, retailers, and consumers—with one another.

Eventually, growmingle will have a Yelp-like mobile app guiding users to purveyors of locally grown food. “For the broad market to have access to [local food], there needs to be an easy and effective discovery platform to find out about real local food initiatives happening around them,” Sullivan says.
