"And I should like to assure you, my Islamic friends, that under the American Constitution, under American tradition, and in American hearts, this center, this place of worship, is just as welcome as could be a similar edifice of any other religion.  Indeed, America would fight with her whole strength for your right to have here your own church and worship according to your own conscience.  This concept is indeed a part of America, and without that concept we would be something else than what we are."  -Dwight D. Eisenhower - 1957

Basement Bunnies - Grow-box Gardening

 

"Tammy is a realist.  She's also a visionary.  She wants a business that brings in money to support her and Jay and Morgan and Claire, gives inner satisfaction, makes a contribution to the life of the community, and will be sustainable for 'yonks'." By Barbara Bamberger Scott

 



Going Full Circle: A Kenyan Journey Back to Sustainable Agriculture

Black Thumb

The Origin of Corn

"After the lad had prepared himself and entered the lodge, the few first days of the fast, he amused himself by walking in the woods and on the mountains, examining the early plants and flowers, and as he observed all nature in its progress of re-animation, he sighed and wished to know all about how they first came, how they grew without the help of man and everything else about their being useful to mankind and more."  By Jane Schoolcraft

 

The Collie Who Tried to End it All

Angora Rabbits

 

"It’s no secret that the world’s softest garment fiber comes from a docile and adorable animal called the Angora Rabbit. Quiet and calm by nature, these animals have been used in fiber harvest for hundreds of years, and are thought to have originated in Turkey. By Victoria Varga

Lost Your Job?
Congratulations, You're Finally Self-employed

 

"So you’re out of work; maybe you have been for a while.  Well, as you probably know, you’re not alone.  Like a lot of other markets these days, the job market is in dire straits.

Let me introduce you to a new way of thinking about job security: your job is never going to be secure – as long as you have a job.  Working for someone else is always just that, and the only way to insure your job security is to start working for yourself.  The good news is, you can start today." By Neil Shelton
