flickr.com/search/?q=permaculture 548 picccies found --- I see a need, have an urge (and even see a way within this lifetime) but for many others who have watched or heard that shameful parliamentarian spectacle of sterility and held breath stopped motion ‘pat stelling’ (deadlock) last night I fear it will be a long way yet.

blopsgot Lenny refuses to be ‘enemies’ but reserves the right to say ‘sleazebag’ if he feels like it (nobody can draw the same line twice). Signatures are good to sprinkle on shit.
Do trends in savings and borrowings reflect thickening and thinning of soil?

Listening, I find the desert wind machine more telling and an even better warning than the claptrap of our feistily verbalizing adulatresses. May I remind you some inside and many more outside this type of idolization opposing camps (with each their own chimpchamp to be idolaat and fill books about, build thrones and tombs for) remember Muhammed differently. Besides or instead of the great galactic insight he may well have had too or not, many Hindu for instance, see him as an ordinary, vindictive thug and warlord, scheming after power and who left a book that was not less but more than the bible dripping with bloodshed. The only comfort being that it was to be the conclusion. Well, let’s put that to the test then. Fucking destroy all Bibles, all Qurans and the shit they are a failed reaction against and see if peace won’t appear and deserts turn green. End strenuous thought excercise.

Fowl play: The poultry industry's central role in the bird flu crisis
GRAIN February 2006

Why is Laos an exception?
The principal reason why Laos has not suffered widespread bird flu outbreaks like its neighbours is that there is almost no contact between its small-scale poultry farms, which produce nearly all of the domestic poultry supply, and its commercial operations, which are integrated with foreign poultry companies. According to the US Department of Agriculture:
The poultry industry in Laos is predominantly one of smallholders, raising free-range, local chicken breeds nearby their dwellings for meat and eggs, mostly consumed by the household or sold locally for income … An average village has around 350 chickens, ducks, turkeys and quail being raised in small flocks interspersed among village homes by about 78 families, with women primarily responsible for the flocks. Ducks, turkey, and quail are also raised, with negligible amounts of geese found scattered around the country. The few commercial operations (less than 100 total, with 89 of these located near Vientiane) in the country supply nearby metropolitan areas … Biosecurity and technology utilization are minimal, with little available veterinary care from either private or government sources.

many informative with telling titles like 'patents and pandemics'
