FACEBOOK FILOSOFER: HOW TO GUIDE FOR AMATEURS

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Anyone can be a FaceBook Filosofer.  (and most Facebookers are.)  But, if you’re a amateur, and aspire to be a “professional” (like me) here’s all you need: 1) a Facebook account 2) a photo — preferably with a black background for more dramatic textual contrast  3) a photo editing ap 4) type a slogan, quotation or cliche on the picture.  5) Upload your picture.  (shazzam!) Now you’re a professional Facebook Filosofer!  It doesn’t matter how many “Likes” you get.  It’s all about the deep filosfical drama of posting platitudes to impress yourself and your “Friends” with your clever witicizms and deeply spiritual understanding of all things political, social, and sexual.  Who knows, maybe you”ll even hook up with someone along the way who “Likes” you or at least shares your version of reality anonymously over the internet.

THE POWER OF WOMEN

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

Women are 51% of the population. 

Women are the only people that can bear children. 

On the average, men are stupid, robotic fools whose thoughts are controlled by the testosterone in their blood:  like bulls and boars.

Women have total Power over men, in spite of their big muscles.  Women can make a man crawl on his knees and do anything if their lovers refuse to have sex with them.

The only reason women do not rule the world is because they do not agree that they can. 

Personally I have found women to be, on average, the finest communicators and most ethical and conscientious business executives I have worked with in my 45 years as a corporate executive and consultant.

The Institution of Slavery was once thought to be indestructible.  What destroyed slavery?  People who protested and fought openly against it.  Come on ladies, get it together!

Check out this video.  You can change to world.  And, god knows it needs a lot of changing — FAST!

NESTLE: PRIVATE WATER PIRATE

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

(Visit website for the film “Bottled Life”  http://www.bottledlifefilm.com/index.php/home-en.html  )

A typical American uses 80 to 100 gallons of water a day, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The entire country consumes about 323 billion gallons per day of surface water and another 84.5 billion gallons of ground water.  Do you have any questions about why Criminal Corporations like Nestle want to PRIVATIZE water distribution?

Perhaps the most incredible number: at an average cost of $1.22 per gallon, consumers are spending 300 times the cost of tap water to drink bottled water.

In fact, that number could be even higher, writes Colas in a note to clients.

“The [bottled water] industry grossed a total of $11.8 billion on those 9.7 billion gallons in 2012, making bottled water about $1.22/gallon nationwide and 300x the cost of a gallon of tap water,” Colas says. “If we take into account the fact that almost 2/3 of all bottled water sales are single 16.9oz (500 mL) bottles, though, this cost is much, much higher: about $7.50 per gallon, according to the American Water Works Association. That’s almost 2,000x the cost of a gallon of tap water and twice the cost of a gallon of regular gasoline.”

Do the math:  323 billion gallons surface water PLUS 84.5 billions gallons of ground water EQUALS 407.5 billion gallons TIMES $1.22 per gallon EQUALS  $497.15 billion per day.  Now, multiply this number by 300 for the price of Nestle bottled water!

A MASTER OF INTELLIGENT RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

 The Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker is a master of natural resource management, conservation, symbiosis, and being a good neighbor!summer-sapsuckerOn a walk through the forest you might spot rows of shallow holes in tree bark. In the East, this is the work of the Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, an enterprising woodpecker that laps up the leaking sap and any trapped insects with its specialized, brush-tipped tongue.

The Yellow-bellied Sapsucker makes two kinds of holes in trees to harvest sap. Round holes extend deep in the tree and are not enlarged. The sapsucker inserts its bill into the hole to probe for sap. Rectangular holes are shallower, and must be maintained continually for the sap to flow. The sapsucker licks the sap from these holes, and eats the cambium of the tree too. New holes usually are made in a line with old holes, or in a new line above the old.

  • The sapwells made by Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers attract hummingbirds, which also feed off the sap flowing from the tree. In some parts of Canada, Ruby-throated Hummingbirds rely so much on sapwells that they time their spring migration with the arrival of sapsuckers. Other birds as well as bats and porcupines also visit sapsucker sapwells.
  • Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers have been found drilling sapwells in more than 1,000 species of trees and woody plants, though they have a strong preference for birches and maples.
  • Sapsuckers tend to choose sick or wounded trees for drilling their wells, and they choose tree species with high sugar concentrations in their sap, such as paper birch, yellow birch, sugar maple, red maple, and hickory. They drill wells for sap throughout the year, on both their breeding and wintering grounds. In addition to sap, Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers also eat insects (mostly ants) and spiders, gleaning them from beneath a tree’s bark like other woodpeckers. And at times they perch at the edge of a tree branch and launch after flying insects to capture them in midair, like a flycatcher.
