So, a couple of PhD students at MIT—finding themselves too addicted to do their actual research—developed a system that tracks your online activity and zaps you with a painful shock if it sees you're spending too much time on Facebook.
They're calling it the Pavlov Poke, after 19th century Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov, famous for discovering classical conditioning—the concept of using positive or negative stimuli to encourage a behavior change. We employ the psychological trick all the time: Finish homework, get cookie, the homework gets done. Cat jumps on counter, gets sprayed with water bottle, it no longer jumps on counter. The Pavlov Poke works like an electric fence: youre the dog and Facebook is the neighbors yard.
"To be truly effective, many shock exposures are probably needed. Proper conditioning procedures should be followed," wrote Robert Morris, one of the students, for an article on Medium. However after electrocuting themselves several times in the name of science, the pair decided the shocks were a bit too unpleasant, and decided to try a different approach: peer ridicule.They enlisted Amazons Mechanical Turk and paid strangers $1.40 to call them up and yell at them for wasting too much time Facebooking. The callers read from pre-written scripts: "Hey, stop using Facebook! What the hell is wrong with you? You lazy piece of garbage. Youre a dumb freaking idiot, you know that? Get it together!"

Tamiya Matilda Mk.III/IV British Infantry Tank Kit The Matilda was developed as a heavily armored infantry tank and was the British Army's main tank in North Africa during WWII. The Matilda swept aside Italian opponents and was respectfully called the "Queen of the Desert" by German forces. During Operation Battleaxe to lift the siege of Tobruk in June 1941, German forces famously used their 88mm AA guns in the anti-tank role as they were the only effective counter against Matildas. The Matilda has written her name into the history books as a highly effective tank which continually proved her worth during many fierce battles throughout North Africa. About this Tamiya Matilda Tank Kit This is a 1/35 scale plastic assembly kit of the Matilda Mk.III/IV. Length: 174mm, Width: 72mm. The Matilda's form has been richly reproduced based on a detailed study of the actual tank. The turret, gun mantlet, and front hull feature a realistic cast metal texture. The mechanically complicated suspension also has a detailed finish. Belt and assembly type tracks included. 3 types of North African markings included. 1 full body commander, 2 torso (loader and driver) figures included. Tamiya model number - 35300 Starter Paint Pack Includes: 6 x 17ml Vallejo model paints. Vallejo paints are supplied in plastic bottles of 17ml with an eyedropper device which keeps paint from drying and prevents spills. The model color range has been specifically developed for adherence on difficult surfaces such as metal and plastic, but the product is not toxic, not flammable, and does not give off noxious fumes.

FORS Group
Agreements Docflow System has been Implemented at the Gorky Park
Обратная связь
Веб-форма не найдена.
FORS Group has announced the completion of the development and implementation of the Agreements Docflow Automation system named «Corporate Information Portal» at the Moscow Gorky Park. That is a comprehensive flexible system deployed on a base of the FORS proprietory portal solution for the efficient management of the internal and external organization processes.
Gorky Park is one of the favorite places of leisure and recreation in the city; it has become not only a pioneer in the implementation of the world class standards in the sphere of entertainment, but also evidenced how information technologies could serve to the benefit of the socially oriented organization.
Gorky Park is a place truly most loving by Muscovites with attendance of more then 50 000 people at the working days, 120 000 at the week-ends and more then 200 000 at public holidays. Starting from 2011, Park follows highest quality standards; it has become #1 entertainment place in Russia, where people come for leisure, sports, dancing and playing at the fresh air. Free entrance, Wi-fi, modern design, great choice of activities and events, personal attention to the people — that all made the Gorky Park so attractive both for the young and aged.
Such a rapid development of the Park required the appropriate technological instruments for the business processes management. Standard office programs could not provide any more efficient docflow processing, vast business contacts and on-line cooperation of the employees. On the results of the open competition FORS was chosen as a contractor, who performed the pre-project expertise, produced the technical task and other documentation, and finally developed and implemented the system.
«We were faced the task of the creation of the corporate Portal, which could provide the sole information environment for the joint work of all our employees dealing with the different kinds of information, coming and existing in a consolidated knowledge data base on Agreements, contractors, documents and their transferring, — says Alexey Lizunov, CIO of the Gorky Park. — That was successfully done by FORS specialists. In the result we've got not just an IT-system for Agreements management, but also an electronic docflow, analytical instrument for reporting and a platform for internal co-working.
Portal features the combination of the finance & economic block with the HR & administrative one, which enables co-work with the documents, generation and publication of the news, and message exchange too.
The system consists from two main modules. The first is the internal corporate Portal with sub-systems of electronic docflow, staff interoperability and system management. The second is the contract module, including subsystems of the Agreements management and reports producing. 40 people were trained to work with the system.
Launch of the Corporate Information Portal enabled huge cut of costs on the docflow, the amount of the paper documents was minimized, while duplication was totally avoided. The abilities for the operative analysis and reporting made the system complete.
The project was fulfilled less in a year. At the moment FORS continues to support and maintain the system developing additional functionality and creating new subsystems. The amount of automated business processes constantly grows; abilities for analytics are extended too. In the future it is planned to plug in the equipment (cashiers machines and rent services) and to integrate Portal with the Park web-site for the better direct communication with the external audience — guests, partners and authorities.
It is important to note that this replicated FORS solution for the Agreements Management could be in a high demand by the different companies and organizations regardless to their size or industry. Though the state enterprises of the federal, regional or municipal levels would benefit the most, cause just for them there were employed functions on the preparation of the state order placement, direct contracts limits control, planning and accounting of the subsidies at contract concluding process and many other specific functions.

Laura Prepon Pregnant: 'OITNB' Star Expecting First Child With Fiancé Ben Foster
Pink or blue is the new black for Laura Prepon who is expecting her first baby with fiancé Ben Foster! Get all the details on the happy couple's big news right here.
Laura Prepon, 36, is expecting her first baby with her fiancé Ben Foster, according to PEOPLE. A source confirmed the Orange Is The New Black star's pregnancy the day after the engaged couple appeared at the Creative Coalition's annual Spotlight Awards held during the Sundance Film Festival on Jan. 22.
"Ben seemed really protective and kept very close to Laura the entire night," an insider told PEOPLE. "He was holding on to her arm as they walked in and kept by her side during the dinner. Neither of them got up much to mingle. They definitely enjoyed dinner. I noticed she finished her plate." Looks like Laura is already eating for two! Our hearts are melting over how adorable that is.
'Orange is the New Black' Premiere PICS — Stars Step Out For Season 3
Ben and Laura have known each other for 18 years, but have always been very hush-hush about their romance, even keeping their October engagement under wraps from close friends!
When former That '70s Show co-star Ashton Kutcher learned that Ben had popped the question he was a bit flustered over the fact he didn't find out from Laura herself. "I get it. But private lives include friends!" Ashton said sassily to his friend while appearing on Live with Kelly, three days after the public learned of her engagement in October. "Like, I shouldn't find out when I get off the plane!" We wonder if Ashton got the baby news secondhand too!
We wish Laura and Ben all the best when it comes to the birth of their new boy or girl. We're sure the little one will bring them so much joy, as we're sure their engagement already has. What an exciting time!
HollywoodLifers, leave your congratulations for Laura and Ben below!

I am sure this course will be my reference in LIBGDX

I think this is really the best way to learn libGdx. You learn every feature of the 2D libraries and can use everyone in your own projects. You get shown many different ways to make the same game so you can find the best way for your own projects. I would recommend this course to beginners but hobby programmers as well because you can't just learn all basics of java but also everything above. When I started this course I already programmed many games (mainly in java) and knew many features of libgdx but during this course I found out what I missed by just watching YouTube tutorials. This is so much better for understanding than any YoutTube video and way faster than reading a book with that much detail.

Learnprogramming.academy always does good job delivering best quality content on Udemy, its a fact and this is my 4th course from them, best content always. Before doing this course i suggest that you do the course from same instructor Java masterclass, having done that course before this one really helps make things clearer. Instructor really put a lot of obvious effort to build this course. These arent easy concepts to understand and it will take you sometime to process it all but its worth it. And lastly, special plus to instructor, hes not native English speaker yet he explains everything crystal clear. I mean absolutely CRYSTAL CLEAR. So if you are into game dev, there isnt a good reason not to get yourself this course :)

It's not for beginners for sure so watch out!!! Developer is great! He writes good and clean code. Sometimes nothing is explained, I just watching some live coding. It's almost the same if I download the source and trying to understand it on my own. Nothing happens in some videos for 15 minutes. But there is a lots of content which definitely worth the price and you can learn a lot of stuffs!

What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is an online payment system invented by Satoshi Nakamoto, who published his invention in 2008, and released it as open-source software in 2009. The system is peer-to-peer; users can transact directly without needing an intermediary. Transactions are verified by network nodes and recorded in a public distributed ledger called the block chain. The ledger uses its own unit of account, also called bitcoin. The system works without a central repository or single administrator, which has led the US Treasury to categorize it as a decentralized virtual currency. Bitcoin is often called the first cryptocurrency, although prior proposals existed. Bitcoin is more correctly described as the first decentralized digital currency. It is the largest of its kind in terms of total market value. Bitcoins are created as a reward for payment processing work in which users offer their computing power to verify and record payments into the public ledger. This activity is called mining and is rewarded by transaction fees and newly created bitcoins. Besides mining, bitcoins can be obtained in exchange for fiat money, products, and services. Users can send and receive bitcoins for an optional transaction fee. Bitcoin as a form of payment for products and services has grown, and merchants have an incentive to accept it because fees are lower than the 2 to 3% typically imposed by credit card processors. Despite a big increase in the number of merchants accepting bitcoin, the cryptocurrency doesnt have much momentum in retail transactions. Unlike credit cards, any fees are paid by the purchaser, not the vendor. The European Banking Authority and other sources have warned that bitcoin users are not protected by refund rights or chargebacks. The use of bitcoin by criminals has attracted the attention of financial regulators, legislative bodies, law enforcement, and media. They listed money laundering, financing of illicit activities, theft, fraud, tax evasion, and use in black markets as possible. As of 2013, the criminal activities centered around theft and black markets. Officials in countries such as the United States also recognized that bitcoin can provide legitimate financial services.
What Is DogeCoin ?
Dogecoin is a form of digital currency, created and held electronically. No one controls it. Dogecoins aren't printed, like dollars or euros – they're produced by people, and increasingly businesses, running computers all around the world, using software that solves mathematical problems. It's the first example of a growing category of money known as cryptocurrency.
Why Use Dogecoin ?
It's Fast
When you pay a cheque from another bank into your bank, the bank will often hold that money for several days, because it can't trust that the funds are really available. Similarly, international wire transfers can take a relatively long time. Bitcoin transactions, however, are generally far faster.Transactions can be instantaneous if they are "zero-confirmation" transactions, meaning that the merchant takes on the risk of accepting a transaction that hasn't yet been confirmed by the bitcoin blockchain. Or, they can take around 10 minutes if a merchant requires the transaction to be confirmed. That is far faster than any inter-bank transfer.
It's cheap
What's that you say? Your credit card transactions are instantaneous too? Well, that's true. But your merchant (and possibly you) pay for that privilege. Some merchants will charge a fee for debit card transactions too, as they have to pay a 'swipe fee' for fulfilling them. Dogecoin transaction fees are minimal, or in some cases free.

Nice How To Wire A Motion Sensor Light Switch Photos - There clearly changed into no want to be sarcastic or impolite. I was absolutely well mannered and your tone become absolutely uncalled for. Incidentally, i already found out what i was after through the assist of someone who is seemingly extra knowledgeable than you. I have examined it and it really works simply as i wanted it to. Just as i said, transfer earlier than movement sensor, which i did not see in any of the above diagrams. So again, sorry you could not recognize what i was desiring and which you have been unable to deliver to and bless me your all understanding intelligence, reputedly missing the all understanding part. Top day sir.
I admire your reaction, however does not that just function it as regular? Perhaps you didn't fully apprehend what i am attempting. It desires to be either/ or. Either function by using manner of the motion sensor and hence requiring motion to show it on and stay on for preset duration, or operate with it on all of the time. Thank you anyway.
This is a wiring diagram for a motion sensor managed keep light (led) using a unmarried pole, double throw, three position transfer. The usage of this wiring installation you could override the sensor to be off all the time, on all the time or managed by using the movement sensor. The sensor can be live irrespective of what role the switch is, but you may manipulate the what the mild does. Maybe we are speaking approximately two extraordinary gadgets/ setups. The movement sensor mild that i've is a easy dual head safety mild with a movement sensor in the middle of the fixture that can be unscrewed, thereby gaining access to the wiring. I do not apprehend how the mild could operate with the switch "open". How within the international could it function if the circuit were open? If i have been to put off strength, then the light will now not, and can't be energized. I don't know what type of fixture you are regarding and that i do not suggest in any respect to insult your intelligence, however i am simply having a tough time grasping what you're speaking approximately. The most effective manner i could see that working is to have a consistent, non switched hot going to the bulbs, but then that could make no experience due to no way to turn them off. Sorry for my lack of information, and again, i admire some time.

NOT JUST talking garden to plate. That and so much more! Going from feeling like dirt to feeling delicious. And then there is the creative process, going from the seed of an idea, to connecting my thoughts with my visuals. Sometimes a bit random but always getting back to deliciousness.
I keep experimenting to see what REALLY works for me in life. Been doing it as long as I can remember.
When I see what works for someone else I can not help but wonder if it will work for me too.
I plant and see what happens.
I get caught in the process when I am really into it and loose track of time.
I keep working on growing deep roots
I am so grateful when the results I am working for actually happen
I keep trying
I guess I am too foolish and obstinate to know when to give up. More on that later.
Despite how much certain aspects of the work seem to be hard on me or/ and for me … I keep trying a way to either ignore it, find a work around, or just keep complaining about the pain and keep doing the work … right and not just find someone to pay to do it!
I know if I have all these thoughts…. others do as well.
These lemons are just a few of oh so many I have harvested from our neighbor's tree . Really not the best image for this analogy?
Thanks to our dear neighbors there has been lots of lemonade, and varied dishes using the lemons…. and art as often as I can think to take the time.
Wondering when the lemon tree we planted last winter will bear fruit. Just covered the ground with more home grown compost and lama dung. ( another post), and free wood chips before the big rain hits.
OK- photographically…. I found that workflow for this image in Light Room to On ONE did not give me the quick and easy results I had hoped for where LR to Photoshop worked much faster for the clean up .

The scaling debate is raging on in the Bitcoin community, with three factions having materialized before the contentious and seemingly likely SegWit2x hard-fork this November.
Who's Who:
BTC – The incumbent Bitcoin chain faction, whose coin is currently priced around $4343 at the writing of this post. Those in the BTC faction are opposed to scaling with SegWit2x. Prominent members include Blockstream, BitcoinTalk, Bitcoin.org, and Charlie Lee.
BT2 – Faction of the as yet un-materialized coin that would result from a November hard-fork of BTC. Bitfinex just opened futures trading on BT2, and each is currently trading around $1099 on the site. This faction is in favor of scaling with SegWit2x. Members include Bitcoin.com, Erik Voorhees, and Barry Silbert.
BCH- Then there's the Bitcoin Cash faction, whose coin is approximately $356 at the time of this post. This faction was opposed to the 1st rendition of SegWit and forked off back on August 1st. Increased blockchain blocks from 1MB to 8MB for scaling instead. They are onlookers this November but are generally favorable to BT2.
The BTC faction wants to move toward Lightning networks on the inaugural SegWit for scaling. They currently have BTC at a 2MB block limit and believe SegWit2x is invalid for not going through the BIP approval process.
The BT2 faction wants to transition to SegWit2x, considering it an ideal compromise for the ongoing scaling debate.
The BCH faction believes raising the blockchain size is in line with Satoshi's original vision. Conversely, they wanted to preserve the genesis block of Bitcoin.
A BT2 hard-fork would occur in early November 2017.
Does SegWit2x Have Considerable Support?
Yes. Major signatories comprising over 90% of Bitcoin's hash power have indicated their support for SegWit2x.
Why It Matters:
Virtually all cryptocurrencies – like Ether, notably – are strongly correlated with the price of BTC. The entire crypto market could sag down in the short-term as November approaches.

TLDR: Three factions have arisen in the Bitcoin community ahead of the potential November hard-fork, and things are getting contentious accordingly.

Changi Airport has flouted its own ban on durians - by placing a 6m-high "king of fruits" right in the middle of Terminal 2.
Of course, the "durian topiary" is not the real thing but a giant-sized replica filled with flowers. It is one of 50 attractions forming an SG50 trail that was launched yesterday.
Among the sights, spread across all three terminals and on display till end-September, are a 4m-tall model of Vanda Miss Joaquim - the national flower, a floral Singa - the Courtesy Lion and model displays of food such as a 2m-tall chilli crab.
Changi Airport Group SG50 Committee chairman Jayson Goh said: "We wanted to create a homely feeling for Singaporeans and tourists, and food is an important part of Singapore culture. Durians are something which is not allowed in airports, but is a food which Singaporeans love. We wanted something that could wow people."
The attractions were erected over the last month and feature local icons, dishes and landmarks.
Other displays include an explanation about the behind-the- scenes work at the airport, and an exhibition area showcasing Singa-pore's aviation history. One exhibit depicts the old Race Course (now Farrer Park), Singapore's first landing ground. It was a hit with Ms Karen Teo, 38, a winner of My Changi Story contest - in which entrants sent in photos and stories of their experiences at the airport. She said: "It was like a history lesson."
The Changi Airport masterplan is on public display for the first time, giving a glimpse of what the place will look like by the mid-2020s.

Women today, are busier than they ever use to be; trying balance the demands of household chores, work, and kids and to add to it the pressure to look and eat a certain way, it can be difficult for any woman to take time out for herself and take care of themselves.
As a woman I am aware it can be challenging but there are some basic things that we as women should and can do to take on the path to better health!
It's not hard to travel the healthier route, it begins with some simple tweaks to your lifestyle.
To have healthy life try these tips:
- Eat right: It can be difficult for any women to maintain a healthy diet, but eating a balanced, nutritious diet is especially important for women. Not only can right food support your mood, boost your energy and help you maintain a healthy weight, but it can also be a huge support through the different stages of women's life.
- Eat more fruits and veggies.
- Choose whole grains.
- Try brown rice instead of white
- Switch to whole wheat bread/ chapattis/pasta.
- Choose lean proteins like poultry, fish, beans and legumes.
- Cut down on processed foods, sugar, salt and saturated fat.
- Eating healthy doesn't mean you have forgo your favorite piece of chocolate or cake, binging on now and then is a good option.
- Drink more water :
- It can help you to lose weight
- It improves your mood
- It can prevent kidney diseases
- It can make you run faster and safer
- Ensure good intake of supplements: Women are at a higher risk of vitamin deficiency. Whether women in her 20's, 40's or 70's, our body needs enough supplements. So make sure to consume foods rich in Vitamin A, Vitamin B, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Vitamin K, Iron, Iodine, Magnesium, Calcium and Omega 3-fish oils.
- Have a proper exercise regimen: Exercise every day, the more active you are the better. Exercise boasts your heart health, builds muscle bone strength and avoids health problems.
- Aim for 2 hours of moderate activity like brisk walking or dancing once a week.
- If you are ok with vigorous exercise, stick to 1 hour and 15 minutes of activities such as running or playing tennis.
- If you're busy, try short burst of activities through the day like take the stairs instead of lift, park your car away from your destination.
- Log 7-8 hours of sleep: Sleep is important for various aspects of brain and body function. Good undisturbed sleep:
- increases concentration, productivity and performance
- enhances memory
- improves your immune function
- decreases risk for diseases such as diabetes, heart conditions, obesity and obstructive sleep apnea
- Cut down your stress: You probably can't avoid stress altogether, but can find ways to ease the impact. Don't take on too much; try to set limits for yourself and others. Stress can have significant health consequences, like depression, anxiety and heart diseases, so breathe in and breathe out.
Stress reduction methods that may work for you are:
- Deep breathing
- Yoga
- Meditation
- Massage and spa therapies
- Exercise
- Healthy eating
- Talking to friends, family members or professional counselor
- Visit your doctors for regular health checks: To really stay on top of your health, you'll need to do more than just see you general practitioners when you fall ill. Preventive care is very important and getting a health checkup periodically helps in managing your health, preventing progression of health concerns and keeping you in pink of health!
- Go outside regularly: Women who spend more time in green spaces are happier, healthier and even more creative.

New Yosemite archive photos show the park in the 1910s
Before the days when Yosemite National Park required patience in dealing with camera-toting crowds or Half Dome reservations, visitors to the park did things their own way.
While the majesty of Yosemite is still much the same, a donation of photos to the Yosemite archives provides a small window into the past that was previously unknown to the public. A number of black-and-white photographs were donated by the grandson of Herbert Asa Sawin, a photographer who worked with H.C. Best in Yosemite and showcased Yosemite in the mid-1910s, according to a recent post on Yosemite's Facebook page.
SEE ALSO: Couple's 100-year-old Yosemite photos show park's timeless beauty
One of the major changes between the photographs and now: the bears. While Yosemite now keeps strict rules on interacting with wild animals, one older photo from the collection showed a man feeding a "begging" bear, while another photo described a bear as a "park pet."
"How times change!" Yosemite's caption noted at the unwise feeding of the bear.
See just a handful of the new images, alongside other archival images of Yosemite in its early days, in the slideshow above.

Bob Wooley / Estes Park Trail-Gazette
Bob Wooley / Estes Park Trail-Gazette
There was putting and lunch, some laughs and a lot of learning about golf courses and the environment at the Estes Park Golf Course earlier this week.
On Tuesday, April 23, Estes Park Golf Course Superintendent John Feeney partnered with The First Green program, which focuses on STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) to host 80 fifth-graders from Estes Park Elementary School.
"A big part of what we do is manage the wildlife out here" said Feeney
Students had a chance to get hands-on, learning about things as diverse as how golf courses can act as wildlife habitat, and how soil helps to filter ground water.
"The program's been around for twenty years" said Golf Course Superintendents Association of America's (GCSAA) Dave Phipps.
It was adopted by the GCSAA as part of their community outreach efforts.
"We can show the kids some of the environmental benefits of the golf course," Feeney said . "And it's a great way to give back to the community", added Phipps.
Students also got crash courses in relocating a hole on a putting green, how composting works, and how to fix divots to make the surface of the greens smoother.
"We can expose kids, not only to the science, but also to the game of golf and possibly the industry", Feeney said.
Phipps suggested they might even "find a future Superintendent in the group and get them interested in a career" by turning the golf course into a classroom for the day.

Self-esteem is directly related to how much you like, approve, accept and value yourself. Low self-worth is a major contributor to low self-esteem and depression. Making self-worth a condition of other's approval, achievements, academic success, appearance or popularity will BREAK DOWN your inner self-worth and consequently HURT your self-esteem.
We must learn how to value ourselves solely for the fact that we are born a unique human being with incredible potential to love, laugh and engage in life fully. As an infant you were innocent and dependent on your parents and those you lived with for survival. As an adult it is vital to discover how to love and like yourself FREE from conditions. Unconditional love and acceptance of past mistakes, failings, disabilities, defects or inadequacies is ESSENTIAL to living your BEST life. You can suffer in survival mode indefinitely OR choose a FRESH & NEW path. And if you don't know how, I can help you.
So if you are sick and tired of suffering, being your own worst enemy and you are looking for help to create a deep unshakable self-esteem, get in touch with Suzi on +44(0)7836 635233.

I have been residing in Hinton, Alberta since 2004. I have seen my community grow, both in population and economy. My new business is bringing a much-needed product to the Yellowhead County. This journey first started when I wanted to insulate my basement with spray foam insulation, only to find that the nearest company was in Edmonton, Alberta. I looked at this as unfair to a rural community and a new service I could supply. By introducing this new product, to West Central Alberta, one of my main goals is to educate my surrounding communities that spray foam is a superior insulation.
Polyurethane spray foam has been around since the 60's. Its popularity has grown dramatically over the years, due to the increased efficiency to a structure. When my community can save money on their heating and electric bills and my company can offer the same rates as the city, without the travel costs, it's a win-win situation.
Polyurea coatings is an industrial coating that not only provides a superior insulation to residential and industrial applications but can also help protect the integrity of steel structures, assist in maintaining temperatures within oil tanks and spill protection in secondary containment liners, to name a few. This coating can increase the effectiveness on the industrial business in the Yellowhead community.
Over the many years I have lived in Hinton, I have met a lot of community through coaching hockey and my businesses. One of my objectives, of my new business, will be to provide a reliable solution for the people of Yellowhead County.
Thank you,
Darwin Kowalchuk

Another Urban farming idea
A person by the name of Steve Turner, owner of Wangara Horticultural Supplies has invented these film grade poly very strong planter bags with handles, it seems primarily for tree farmers. yet they seem like a great idea for urban framing in backyards or condo balconies. Growing in some small yards in west Toronto yardsis daunting when attempting to plot out some space to grow, and have enough space to use the yard for child play, eating and entertaining.
These bags would allow the movement of plantings of veg and herbs around as needed.
These bags are from Australia and I do not think they are available in Canada, but they do not look difficult to cut and sew up.
Design helps with urban farming
As Toronto inches its way to an acceptance to urban farming. This author began to think about the different needs of urban farmers, such the ability to not annoy your neighbors with smells, noises, general sundry issues such as disposing of waste, bringing in food, for animals such as chickens.
And then I came across this a wonderful chicken and egg design, it would likely even be great on a condo balcony.
The nogg chicken coop is a modern chicken house that has been designed in the shape of an egg. It has been designed to house from 2-4 chickens and is to encourage domestic farming while adding a touch of playful elegance. The nogg sits beautifully in any garden, urban or rural environment and is designed to enhance and compliment it's surroundings. The nogg aids and advocates the provenance of homegrown foods.
