Blue Me Portable Vacation Home | Modern Industrial Design and Future Technology - Tuvie Email Presenting you the all-new vacation home, which is portable! Yes you heard it rightly. Designer : Anton Markus Pasing via Dvice Ubuntu (philosophy) Ubuntu (/ʊˈbuːntʊ/ uu-BOON-tuu; Zulu pronunciation: [ùɓúntʼú])[1][2] is a Nguni Bantu term roughly translating to "human kindness."[dubious ] It is an idea from the Southern African region which means literally "human-ness," and is often translated as "humanity toward others," but is often used in a more philosophical sense to mean "the belief in a universal bond of sharing that connects all humanity".[3] In Southern Africa, it has come to be used as a term for a kind of humanist philosophy, ethic or ideology, also known as Ubuntuism or Hunhuism (the latter after the corresponding Shona term) propagated in the Africanization (transition to majority rule) process of these countries during the 1980s and 1990s. Since the transition to democracy in South Africa with the Nelson Mandela presidency in 1994, the term has become more widely known outside of Southern Africa, notably popularized to English language readers by Desmond Tutu (1999).

Solar Power Much Cheaper to Produce Than Most Analysts Realize, Study Finds By Joe Romm on December 11, 2011 at 10:22 am "Solar Power Much Cheaper to Produce Than Most Analysts Realize, Study Finds" The public is being kept in the dark about the viability of solar photovoltaic energy, according to a study conducted at Queen’s University.“Many analysts project a higher cost for solar photovoltaic energy because they don’t consider recent technological advancements and price reductions,” says [co-author] Joshua Pearce, Adjunct Professor, Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering. That’s the news release for a new journal article, “A review of solar photovoltaic levelized cost of electricity” (subs. req’d). That argument is one Climate Progress and others have been making for a while (see ‘Ferocious Cost Reductions’ Make Solar PV Competitive and Utility CEO on Solar: In “3 to 5 Years You’ll Be Able to Get Power Cheaper from the Roof of Your House Than From the Grid”.) Here’s more for the news release (plus some more must-have CP charts):
Ayahuasca Tourism in South America Written for Anthropology of Tourism, University of Maryland at College Park John N. Grunwell Within the last fifteen years or so, a grass-roots ayahuasca tourism industry has sprung up, with outposts all over Amazonia. Perhaps the ayahuasca tourism phenomenon is best understood as part of this culture, a culture that increasingly seeks to know itself and nature better, both as individual entities and interconnected systems. Outsider's attraction to ayahuasca What brings people from all over the world to South America, simply to use ayahuasca? The most influential books of the last decade and a half are likely those of Terence McKenna, author of such works as Food of the Gods,The Archaic Revival, and True Hallucinations. ...it's not a frivolous pursuit... there's a certain amount of dread attached to taking it -- you have a hallucinogenic trip that deals with death and your mortality. Another well-know musician to speak of their ayahuasca experience is Paul Simon. Conclusion Works Cited
Bob Dylan sings about gay love on LGBTQ wedding songs collection | Music | The Guardian Bob Dylan is among six acts appearing on a new compilation EP that features “reimagined” versions of traditional wedding songs for same-sex couples. Universal Love opens with Dylan’s rendition of the 1929 great American songbook classic She’s Funny That Way, revamped as He’s Funny That Way. Rob Kaplan, the compilation’s producer, told the New York Times that Dylan was enthusiastic about the project. “And it wasn’t just, ‘Yes, I’ll do this’, it was, ‘Hey, I have an idea for a song.’” The compilation also features contributions from St Vincent (AKA Annie Clark), who turns the Crystals’ And Then He Kissed Me into And Then She Kissed Me. “For years I said that I’m not getting married until any two people can legally marry in this country,” Kesha told the New York Times, while Valerie June said her version of Coward’s song restored it to its original intentions: “It brings the song full circle to know that it was written by a gay man who meant every single word of Mad About the Boy.”

List of films in the public domain in the United States This is a non-definitive list of films in the public domain in the United States.

High Pressure Aeroponic System Flowchart – Block Diagram Here’s a block diagram (flowchart) of a basic high pressure aeroponic system. Let’s take a trip through the aeroponic system starting with the misters or nozzles. First – Solenoids (Automatic valves) The solenoids attached to the misters work as valves to open or close the flow of nutrient to the misters. Second – Store it in the reservoir Any nutrients not absorbed by the roots get returned to the reservoir at the bottom of the root zone by dripping through a drain with an inline filter. The nutrient is stored here until the system calls for more pressure. Monitor nutrient level As the nutrient is used and as the plant grows, your reservoir will drop lower and lower. Main component – Pressure Pump The pump will send the pressurized nutrient to the pressure tank which acts like a big bladder that expands like a tough balloon. Now at the Tank Since the tank is pre-pressurized with the nutrient, when the misters call for nutrient at 100 psi, it would be there instantly. Sensing system pressure

Over the next several hundred years the domesticated soybean (called Glycine max by botanists) spread throughout much of eastern Asia. Soybeans reached the western world by the early 1700s and were first grown in North America by 1804. In the 1880s, French scientists discovered that the soybean contains practically no starch, so its use in diabetic diets began. Modern uses. In the 1880s, French scientists discovered that the soybean contains practically no starch so its use in diabetic diets began. Modern uses.
