Could We Survive Without Violence?

Could the life on earth exist with no violence? Most would say something like "sure we can" or "of course," well I say no. War is absolutely everywhere, look around, every argument, fight, debate and so on is only just a small form of violence. The entire cycle of life is made of violence, one animal kills another, then another, then another. If there weren't violence we would be confused, for we could not learn off our own mistakes. We wouldn't know how to love. Life as we know it could not exist. If you live in the rainforest hunting is survival, but isn't it violence? You and the animal are both fighting and someone or something will die. In the end I ask the same question, could we survive without violence?

Earth Ships

An Earth Ship is a new kind of Eco home invented by a man named Michael Reynold. This new house comes with its own plumbing system and electrical system, yet remains off the grid that contains us, the electric grid. These homes could practically exist anywhere and some contain garbage as building material. For more information check out this video...

The Misplaced Prince

Once again the truly remarkable Sean Cullen has come out with a out standing series, as he had deliberately said in the final book of Hamish X. He had said that another idea had come across his mind. The fist book of the series The Misplaced Prince, The Prince of neither Here nor There, is about a boy who a nerdy teenager that is turning into a Faerie. I recomend this book for all kids ages 9+.

Uncle Kaz

The picture on my side bar titled Three Plants is done by great uncle. Sadly he died. I do wish I could meet him now.

Alchemy

From reading the book "The Alchemyst" I've been thinking about how Alchemy full of mystery that make me some what curious, like "How did they make the Philosopher Stone?" or "Who created the Philosopher Stone?" Almost all of my questions are related to the Philosopher Stone as it is so unusual in many ways. I'm also interested in how brilliant these people were, the things they did is incredible and almost inconceivable.

Model Planes

This is a model plane I have worked on a while a go I am currently working on the "Black Bird," I think the "Black Bird" is a stealth plane but, if you wish to search the answer, you can. Making model planes is a test of patience, I don't think anyone impatient should work on a model although now that I think about it, it is good practice.

Residential Schools

 Just yesterday I learned that there are places called residential schools. A place where First Nations people, would get striped of their culture. If they were to speak their Native tongue they would be punished. The government of Canada thought it would be good for preparation for the "white culture" but the First Nations did not like it for all the terrible things that happened.

Eepy Bird

One of many.

Looks like fun.

Robert White in Madagascar

 Right now a man named Robert White is in Madagascar, Africa. When he was given the opportunity to go on this trip he was thinking about going to the beaches. As it turns out, he is in the corner of a room where he is momentarily staying. Why, you may ask? Well now the country is very chaotic because, they dislike there current president. So, there having a fit. "Last night there was a curfew. I was warned by my local fixer "do not go out no matter what!" 100 metres away from my house, the rioters and looters set up a barricade of burning tires and wooden kiosks. 2 young looters were shot dead at this spot by an Asian store owner. The rumor on the street is there will be reprisals tonight. They, (the angry mob) will kill the store owner. This is to close."- Robert White. 

Hamish X

 Hi, I've been reading the Hamish X series it is not as funny as Sean Cullen on stage. But, it is still funny. To, me this book is funny because, of what Sean Cullen has to say in some footnotes, for example, "The caribou is a North American cousin of the reindeer of Lapland. The animal is more difficult to domesticate than the reindeer because of its wild nature and its intense dislike of Christmas." I definately recommend this series.

Percy Jackson and The Olympians Great Series Too

 Man Percy Jackson and the Olympians is a good series. It is blended in with Greek mythology which makes the books interesting. So, if you enjoy mythology and/or want to learn more about it read this series it is great.

Cinderella ella ella ay ay

On December 31st I went to see a play called Cinderella at the Eglin theatre. The play was HILARIOUS! the play included the kids to interact with the actors not only that but, the actors would actually respond to what they said. The play Cinderella was also silly, so silly that they included it on the brochure they gave us. The Evil Stepmother and, Step Sisters were played by boys. Last thing is that you young or old should see this play.
