My no-work gardening method is simply to keep a thick mulch of any vegetable matter that rots on both my vegetable and flower garden all year round. As it decays and enriches the soil, I add more. The labor-saving part of my system is that I never plow, spade, sow a cover crop, harrow, hoe, cultivate, weed, water or spray. I use just one fertilizer (cottonseed or soybean meal), and I don’t go through that tortuous business of building a compost pile.   Continue reading “Ruth Stout’s System for Gardening”

I am deeply honored to speak with you tonight, as the World Jewish Congress gathers in New York City with the leaders from across the world.

First, I want to thank Ronald Lauder, not only for his many years of friendship – and he truly has been my good friend, he even predicted early that I was going to win the presidency – but also for his leadership of this organization.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Sunday that Penn Station needs major improvements in coordination, training and staffing following a panic and stampede a week ago Friday.

In the incident a week ago Friday, a disabled NJ TRANSIT train first led to widespread delays and left the train depot packed and crammed.

Then, as frustrated passengers crowded the platforms, Amtrak police used a Taser on a suspect, which some people mistook for the sound of gunshots.   Continue reading “Schumer Demands Better Police Coordination At Penn Station After Stampede”

North Korea detained an unidentified US citizen for unknown reasons as he was planning to fly out of Pyongyang International Airport on Saturday morning.

The detention was confirmed by Martina Aberg, deputy chief of mission at the Swedish Embassy in Pyongyang. The embassy represents US interests in North Korea, since Washington and Pyongyang do not have direct diplomatic relations.   Continue reading “American detained in North Korea”

WEB Notes: So now the government wants to come after what little bit you have left. Yes, the Republican and Democrat vermin that you voted for. “Make American Great Again” went out with a whimper, as the sound of a ballon slowly releasing the air.

Government officials receive fantastic benefits, but apparently you are keeping too much of the money you earned and they want a bigger cut. Tax cuts? Give me a break. Remember, 40% of you have saved nothing for retirement and they want even more.

Survey Finds

LONDON — Are you handy enough that if a lightbulb went out in your home you’d be able to change it? Believe it or not, one in five people aren’t so skilled. In fact, a new survey of people in the United Kingdom finds not only do about 20 percent of people not know how to change a bulb — the same number aren’t sure how to boil an egg, either.

The British insurance company Aviva recently released their annual Home Reportwhich detailed, among numerous findings about how people do work around the house, relatively common tasks that people encounter. The company surveyed 2004 people across the UK in February and March about their habits and roles at home.   Continue reading “Survey: 1 In 5 Adults In The UK Can’t Change A Lightbulb, Boil An Egg”

This information about hair has been hidden from the public since the Viet Nam War .

Our culture leads people to believe that hair style is a matter of personal preference, that hair style is a matter of fashion and/or convenience, and that how people wear their hair is simply a cosmetic issue. Back in the Viet Nam war however, an entirely different picture emerged, one that has been carefully covered up and hidden from public view.

In the early nineties, Sally [name changed to protect privacy] was married to a licensed psychologist who worked at a VA Medical hospital. He worked with combat veterans with PTSD, post traumatic stress disorder. Most of them had served in Viet Nam.   Continue reading “Hair Is An Extension Of The Nervous System”

WEB Notes: Trump had made this known even before he was sworn in. We reported on December 8th 2016 that he would “work something out” for illegal immigrant “children”.

This guy has flip flopped so many times now he should consider being a gymnast. I actually feel bad for those who bought into the lies this con man put forward. But what did we expect? 90% of Americans did not want him or Clinton to be our next president. As we said, the people never had a choice to begin with.
