US Drought Monitor

Still getting worse here in Alabama. Heat is drying the creek up during the day. Nighttime it starts flowing a bit again. Never seen it this dry.

Biologists Helping Bookstores

This is some funny stuff! Folks helping bookstores out by putting the “Intelligent Design” books in the proper places. 😉

No, not the trash or toilet, just a bit of relocating into the proper categories. Go to the site and read a bit to find out which categories these are.

Bat House Project: Economy Bat House Plans

Interesting way to build a bat house. Looks simple enough.

IF the above link isn’t working (looks to me like the site is getting an upgrade) and /or for more info take a look at more plans (pdf only it looks like) at http://www.batcon.org/home/index.asp?idPage=47.

Bats are the best non electric, pesticide free flying insect control out there!

Aaron Adding Machines

Don’t think I have posted this link before but am too lazy to look so if I have here it is again. 😉

These are interesting but it would be nice if he would give a little background and maybe a view of the actual guts and/or construction of one of them. Cool stuff anyway.

Quite an interesting device. Wish there was some more detailed information on it. Would like to know what the brass can is for that is located just to the left of the handle bars in the picture below. Water or oil or what? The artist did a hell of a job on this piece of machine work. Verrrrry nice!

Home Composting Made Easy (TreeHugger)

Interesting method of composting kitchen scraps. Makes me want to build that kiln, start digging clay and build a potters wheel. After the heat breaks I may just do so. Been wanting to/talking about it for years and at this age if I’m gonna I best get started.

EcoGeek of the Week: Ron Hochstetler on Airships (TreeHugger)

Interesting read. I think that airships (using todays materials technology and a nonflammable gas for lift) are a viable alternative to conventional transport. And they don’t require roads or tracks to get the product/passengers to the destination. Cool stuff!

Phone Number Comments

Having problems with someone calling that you don’t know and when you search for the # there is no info? Try this site. Not every number is listed but the ones from telemarketers and such that have been reported by other folks they have annoyed will be. Have had good luck with searches several times now that otherwise I couldn’t find.
