10 Reasons Why EarthShips Are Awesome

Fernando Kaskais

Earthships are 100% sustainable homes that are both cheap to build and awesome to live in. They offer amenities like no other sustainable building style you have come across. For the reasons that follow, I believe Earthships can actually change the world. See for yourself! 1) Sustainable does not mean primitive When people hear about sustainable, off-the-grid living, they usually picture primitive homes divorced from the comforts of the 21st century. And rightfully so, as most sustainable solutions proposed until now have fit that description. Earthships, however, offer all of the comforts of modern homes and more. I’ll let these … Continue reading 10 Reasons Why EarthShips Are Awesome

Earth raises a plasma shield to battle solar storms

Fernando Kaskais

By Lisa Grossman Earth can raise shields to protect itself against solar storms. For the first time, satellites and ground-based detectors have watched as the planet sends out a tendril of plasma to fight off blasts of charged solar matter. The discovery confirms a long-standing theory about Earth’s magnetic surroundings and offers us a way to keep track of the planet’s defences. “It’s changed our thinking about how the system operates,” says Joe Borovsky at the Space Science Institute in Boulder, Colorado, who was not involved in the research. “Earth doesn’t just sit there and take whatever the solar wind … Continue reading Earth raises a plasma shield to battle solar storms

America’s New Servant Class

Fernando Kaskais

By Lynn Stuart Parramore, March 6, 2014 | Income inequality is creating a boom in the servant industry. Welcome to the world of Downton Abbey. In America, many people still think of household servants as something belonging to a distant age, a time less equal and democratic than our own, like the Britain of Downton Abbey. But as we’ve entered a second Gilded Age, the clock seems to be turning back, and the super-rich are increasingly relying on servants to feed, clothe and make them comfy. The economic “recovery” is not producing nearly enough jobs, but the servant sector is … Continue reading America’s New Servant Class

(Photo: Allison Deger) by Allison Deger They arrived by bus and despite their youth they were veterans of demonstrations honoring the rabbi’s of the extreme-right and protesting negotiations with the Palestinian leadership.

Ukraine and the Pathology of America’s Liberal Worldview. An African American Perspective

Fernando Kaskais

by Ajamu Baraka RINF Alternative News Reading the March 2 editorial in the New York Times on the so-called revolution in Ukraine, I couldn’t help but marvel at how easily elite opinion makers in the U.S. can call for the use of public resources to bail out the people and government of Ukraine without significant opposition or even serious questions.  The Times editorial forcefully argued that in response to the “revolution” in Ukraine, Western powers must “provide prompt and substantial assistance to the Kiev government.” This sentiment was also voiced by a number of conservative Republicans who normally pretend to … Continue reading Ukraine and the Pathology of America’s Liberal Worldview.
