--  Water Smart --  To be honest - every year - I put out a series of posts, articles and such in the genre of improving water issues awareness. This includes the use of water, you know - "reduce" and "reuse".  Last year, I had the wonderful opportunity to drop in a local FaceBook group where I was inspired to start a conversation where people could share their water conservation tips. I'd like to share this same post with you again here - yeah, I know it is repeated content, which I rarely do. However, it is that time of year again and every year water issues are more on my mind again.  My hope is that our readers will share our posts on the topic -- but also, we ask that people comment on the posts sharing their own thoughts, experiments, ideas, etc. I'll start with last year's post this week, and I'll follow that up with a great article written by Lauren Thomas re: her thoughts on effective watering techniques. (*Look for it to be pub...

-- Back in the office -- Well, I'm back in the office. - Can you believe it? lol  I have been tending to important communications and projects and the like of course, but it has been a while since I have had the ability to put in more hours. Wow - to see all your communications to me is fantastic, I so appreciate them. I've had numerous review project queries and several article queries coming through, even though their queries came in some months ago. So expect some great content! This spring we started a huge project on our house - digging out each foundation wall, cleaning it and painting 2 coats of cement sealing paint as deep as we could dig (about 2 - 2 .5 feet deep, we have really heavy clay and lots of rocks here). That project led us to widening and lengthening a front flower bed, and creating a walkway surrounding the house under the overhang of the roof. The walkway for the most part is basically a thick layer of gravel that will have cement pads spaced out ...

Lateral Thinking * Written by Wayne David Russell, creator of:   Lateral Thinking Course - A Definitive Guide To Solving The Impossible. http://LateralThinkingCourse.com Brains waves have been monitored by science for almost 100 years. The first brain wave detected, the Alpha brain wave was discovered by Hans Berger in 1929 using an Electroencephalograph (EEG) machine. Since then four other brain waves have been identified, which has stirred much research about their nature and purpose. So far science publicly acknowledges brain waves are an indication of the different states of mind. Behind the scenes science is discovering they do much more! There are 5 known brain waves Alpha, Beta, Delta Theta and Gamma. These brain wave signals are at the Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) range of 1 Hz to 40 Hz.  ELF's have the ability to travel long distances penetrating land, sea and air. Ultra long distance sonar operates at ELF's of 50 Hz. This raises a few question...
