“Weed Resistance Weeds are nature’s band-aids, growing as they do to heal and restore damaged soils. When farmers manage the life of the soil with organic processes, the improved conditions dissuade many weeds and favor their crops. The crops, being healthier, are also better able to compete with those weeds that do crop up.”

Sophie Blackall’s blog is made up of selected entries from the Missed Connections section of Craiglist New York City. You probably know this section (and if you don’t, you should) for it is one of the best reads online. Now there is the illustrated version, hand picked for her readers.

Messages in bottles, smoke signals, letters written in the sand; the modern equivalents are the funny, sad, beautiful, hopeful, hopeless, poetic posts on Missed Connections websites. Every day hundreds of strangers reach out to other strangers on the strength of a glance, a smile or a blue hat. Their messages have the lifespan of a butterfly. I’m trying to pin a few of them down.

#4 In A Series Of Pop-Cultural Charts

Click here to see a larger version of the map.

Yesterday’s NYC chart got such a great response and I didn’t want the rest of the country to feel left out. And, yes, I know some of these shows aren’t exactly sitcoms, but it helped to fill out some of those lonely blank spaces.

“After the explosion at Reactor 4 the people of Pripyat flocked on the railway bridge just outside the city to get a good view of the reactor and see what had happened.

Initially, everyone was told that radiation level was minimal and that they were safe. Little did they know that much of the radiation had been blown onto this bridge in a huge spike.”

They saw a beautiful rainbow coloured flames of the burning graphite nuclear core, whose flames were higher than the smoke stack itself. All of them are dead now - they were exposed to levels of over 500 roentgens, which is a fatal dose.

P.S.: note that the photo above is made from 2 different photos (top photo of the reactor and bottom photo of the bridge in Pripyat joined together)”

URBAN GREENING

Community initiative is the backbone of Urban Greening - people empowering each other to dream, to re-build, to take simple steps together. The practice of Urban Greening invites us to reclaim, with loving design, our soul relationship with the natural spaces and sacred places within the boundaries of urban life; to live in harmony with the flora and fauna drawn to the urban wilds; and, to evoke the aid of the nature realms, calling upon them to guide us on our way.
