Beyond Ethanol: Drop-In Biofuels Squeeze Gasoline From Plants

Beyond Ethanol: Drop-In Biofuels Squeeze Gasoline From Plants - Also, there are more sustainable things that are high energy containing plants, like switchgrass and hemp. Oil companies, with their huge capital reserves need to focus on these. Tar sands are 15 -20% dirtier than regular oil production.

Another Pond - Crustacean Nation

The other day, on my walk; stopped at a out of the way pond with a little waterfall, which was flowing pretty strong, with yellow, chamomile looking buds floating in the fairly deep and big, little pond. It seemed they also gave off a subtle sweet scent of lightness. ( unlike the yellow ginger in my room which helps me to remember the heaven it can be). As i was looking to see how clean it would be to jump in, i saw a couple tiny minnows, and a little algae, And - a so far unidentified creature! -- Still a mystery, the black stick - like crustacean with one long, and i mean really long, (with an elbow) small rounded claw. He shot off as i approached, but returned as i sat by the peaceful water. Few know of this place, a hidden forest sanctuary, and i appreciated the calmness, while i watched this "water insect" move about...

More Jazzbird

Another most unusual feature of the jazz bird is that: along with doing at least 10 calls without repeating, they sometimes also do 3 sounds per call.  Usually the last 2 are the same, but not always. I am thankful i can experience this in a place where a lot of the time, all you hear is the bird and the wind, I hope to record many bird sounds and play some music with them. If i can share, then there is a sort of circle completed, which is in the mind that is visiting this world. Creating for it's own sake, as a part of our nature is imortant

Ponds and Oceans

       This is a sort of update and end to the theme here for now. Mixed results and happenings around the pond. The lower pond is overrun with the crays, and the mud hopefully awaits a new lotus season. Others will take responsibility. The upper tank is cleared and will also be tended to. Seasons and experiences are the stuff of our existence here. Change is the operating factor in this world of time and places. I will continue to write my views - to improve / to speak / something meaningful...

Maybe a hh verse

Eyes on the skies help the world to rise, & touching earth / giving birth / energy's flow / descending / know / yourSelf / go / in love sow☼

At the Cliffs

        I came upon one today at the cliff by the ocean. Don't see them as much down here.

New Phase - Happy Ending

A little dejected - right before getting loaded out to the shelter. Officer said special reduced adoption fee.. , i think he can be rehabilitated. Must be adopted within two weeks. Update: Owners had reported dog and picked him up.

Being Fair to Oneself

Not to be too critical, but...tonite i'll catch the stray 1 yr old pit terrier, and then i have to get him adopted in two weeks - is as long as the shelter keeps them. In 19 yrs, i've not seen dogs, only ferral cats. There is a joke about that - I didn't see them, but now i see, and i see that this is what is needed. The lotus sleep, some brave lillies remain. The crays have claimed it, or cause of the dog. The guy taking over the cray project didn't want to go there with his 1 yr old. Lessons? I learned that shit turns to fertiliser. God will come out of this. What else could the sign of a 1 yr old be but a blessing for the youth. so i have 1 lead as soon as i get her pound # tomorrow. i put something in her food so she will sleep well tonite. {the upper pond was cleared but now the crays must be moved. -  i thought this was a hobby}i thought i heard a dog a while ago, mostly tonite is the toads party night so that's the loudest sound. i hope he dreams it off.
i supplied my pre - curried - cayenne (which was very hot today) rice and veg. and the owner thru in a chicken leg i think. i will check soon. Yesterday was the longest he stayed before bolting, as i got down and spoke gently it's ok, it's ok.  i will go check soon. Aloha to you...You did the best you could with what you knew and the tools you had.

Cetetean Communication

         Ok, i'm just going to say it: I believe we can tune in and communicate with whales, or that we are somehow linked. My experiences with Humpbacks over the years have given me this feeling. I know most people think someone who say things like that are woo woo or crazy, but it doesn't really matter to me; everyone has the freedom to think what they want. Today's, and the last two visits have given more evidence. The first visit, when i called to them, was written here before. The second, was when i decided that the 5 mi. loop was good enough and i didn't really need to see them. In a 30-40mph. wind - didn't see one. Today, i thought, either way is ok. At first, anyway.

           Checked the radar, no rain, maybe. It rains a lot out here. On the way down, saw only one guy working on the dirt/stone road - a rare thing.  Not that many people on the road for a couple miles. On the way down, giggling elementals? At least it made me laugh. At the bottom, where the road becomes 4 wd. - Saw a man wheeling his child in a carriage. Getting down to the trail to the cliffs - i saw the mystical Numbers: 444. There's a couple other houses, no numbers? Reaching the cliffs, i saw the two young steers, who said: we just wanted to serve. Namaste. I wish, in this world, you wouldn't be getting served. 

           Reaching the platform and stretching -   At first, i couldn't believe my eyes. Looking down in the swirling foam - the gold fish? A different one? In an upper part, but still caught after 3-4 weeks. Is this a good mirror, am i still trying to get out of the pond and reach the ocean. I thought about many of those who are tossed by the waves of life, who cannot swim above the raging tide. It bounced him from place to place, but he was trying to get to the place that, when only the perfect timing and right tide, will lead to freedom. Has he been in there for weeks? Not much i could do, except desiring his liberation, from 100 ft. up. when will i reach the ocean?

            Turning toward the cetaceans, i tried to feel where they were. A good 30mp. wind had dried the sweat. Well, i thot, the first time i called and they came. The second - no call - no see. This time - ambivalence? Tried that for a while, laid back and breathed in the indigo horizon. Had been listening to their sounds on a hydrophone lately, so those sounds came to my mind. There are many different sounds with the many individuals. One is a high woooo (there's a woowoo) - actually at least a couple different ones, probably females. A little like an owl. The low growls of the males are like cows, lions and elephants. --There's a lot of things going on - males competing to for mating or to escort mothers and calves. I started making some calls. mostly telepathically.  After a bit, no sign of any anywhere in the 5 sq. mi. area. I thot, well i don't want them to go out of their way, or impose on them, but, i Really want to see them. Either way, i'm detached and will accept whatever happens. Every day doesn't have to be always magical, tho actually it is always there. The spine tingling opening sessions have continued. It is a magical time now, on earth. Stand up - stretch - chi gong. Yeah i don't want to bother them - and just at that moment, the turquoise color that reflects the white belly appeared about 3-400 yds. out - she was on her side just long enough -- to wave -- with her flipper...one back and forth, and then continue on with her calf... Know that is part of their behavior. Excited and laughing / bliss full experiences...

Signs and Dreams

    Life is but a dream... it's getting to that merrily rowing that's the trick... in a game that is short - or forever...  seconds can merge into eternality...
    A neighbor was saying something about me doing or saying something, thinking i was an Aquarius. And since i'm called Libra in western, and Virgo in eastern (sidereal), it made me think about the things we use to help explain situations and people, and the world. I've heard different explanations for the different systems, and it's all valid if it helps you - if it works. The universal forces are unknowable by the human mind. i think you have felt the moon shine - how about Jupiter? Before i came to these isolated islands, a psychic said: you lived there before 4 x's, and you have something that is calling you - you may have the chance to learn the Huna teachings from a woman(have had 2 that came). So, if she correctly identifies the past life problem in the current one, the psychic is useful in helping me work on that issue that is not resolved.- have made progress. One, from the psychologist involves asking the creator to cut the karmic ties since the the soul's inception (a kind of ho'oponopono). The different practices(cards,readings,etc.) will reveal according to all the people,and forces at work. We need to know certain things, each according to their desire, but like a wise young woman named Angelique
 said: "Expend your time on the solution..."  i was thinking about her today, because i was cleaning up someone's trash that was ripped apart by a stray dog. She does immense work in that field with many animals for KSPath.
         Even though i passed the torch for pond management, maybe it was not done with enough communication. The dog is symbolising and telling me something (Another subject - "clean" and "unclean"). Still, is this some kind of strange mirror or reflection - Can virtual worlds interact on the physical plane? I've been having a lot of wildlife glitches lately. After advancing in consciousness, the body tests, as it changes to follow the changing inner bodies. The poor thing was skinny and has been around for over a week in the trash, (but not mine, 'cause there is nothing good).  I found out they get 2 weeks at the HS shelter, so i found a group that adopts individuals out, so since it's young, she should have a good chance. Another couple days, and the stray is still here. The animal control will not come out unless the animal is in your possession. I've gotten 10 ft away, but she runs if any closer - being chased away so often. Tomorrow i will get a trap (which is challenging with my transportation lately), and i'll get it adopted. The energies and teachings are abundant now... just breathe and keep rowing...

Mirrors Everywhere

      This title is from 11-3-12, so i guess one could say i could be a professional crastinator (or a non- linear thinker?). The idea was to show how one viewed experiences (and physical entities) as signs and teachings (and joy and inquiry) in daily occurrences. Most of all, it being the most honest and effective way of reflecting - desire - or intent = outcome. The personal truth revealed in the unique situation. The unquantifiable missing formula is past life karma, which may explain all that we can't understand, though we will eventually.
          One scene was about how i came down the hill toward the breadfruit tree one evening - by the breadfruit tree (they smear the fruit along the ground to eat it). Stopping immediately and calmly, i watched him he darted toward one way of escape, then i could feel his heightened tension, as he realized - wrong way - and dashed the other way into the bush, and up to the left (i took a couple steps back)i could hear the powerful crashing as he headed for safety (even the tiniest insect wants freedom and life). And the butterflies, birds and prawns, the neighbors, the body, the water. All mirrors for us to see - the beauty/responsibility... creation that life is. Mirrors and Messages. (And messes)
             Today, for me is a humbling, intense, and en-lightening experience in the mirror.  (Just realized I did not see a human today). I will see how and why i have come here, and time and events will lead to a different adventure, with wisdom earned. What i will remember most about yesterday, while feeling the pain of a lost vehicle (could be any loss) - a partial self blunder(forgiveness)--- is how the rainbow came up at that moment. It is always a beautiful "mirror" to see at difficult times. It has always been a great sign of a remembrance of the inner good within everything in decisive times. . So the inner work and advances are usually met with reverses, as the physical body adjusts to an inner body change. Another way to see it... I also saw connection and support, miracles and magic are also here for us. Now is what it is. We have the same / different viewpoints. " The students argue - the Masters agree." The birds and the whales - one's soliloqy...

Many ponds / Many Wonders

           Along my walk, i decided to take a "road" (a 1 car dirt lane) i'd never gone on before. Have always appreciated traveling and going a new way. This allows for a spontaneous alertness and wonder of the self; to play and be free( and sometimes lost). After a couple miles going down toward the ocean, the road met another and knew my location. Another 3/4  and i could be at the cliffs and see the whales. I feel they have some way of perceiving us, and it was not a question to go - except... You go through peoples property and pastures, and i hadn't been there for a while. At the beginning of the road down, there was a bright 444 sign - an auspicious number, which is the property at the end , tho there are a couple houses before it. Coming down, looking across the vast ocean, i knew i would be seeing my "friends." "It's not a great idea to expect things, Mr. Rational said, but there was no question it would happen. Alas. when getting there, the place where i was last time was gone, replaced by fenced areas and cow pasture. Had to keep going, so farther down, between the fences, a narrow trail, and in the trees, a perfect spot, about 100 ft up from the water. As we often find, our fears are illusions.
         Scanning the somewhat turbulent waters, no sign of of spouts or anything. I just scanned and used thoughts to communicate. After about 4 or 5 minutes, i saw spouts directly in front, a little ways out. It seemed they were not moving much and sometime floating on the surface. They seemed relaxed, in comparison to the South and Westside, where boats seek to watch them, and they keep moving. They also were staying under longer( capable of staying under for 15 mins). They were heading out and i didn't get much of a view. I noticed an orange fish that was kind of caught on a lava rock table pool, with crashing waves with whitewater sometimes covering the pool. The fish looked kind of battered, and i looked at some dangling rope down the mud cliff, and had to decide against the impulse to help somehow. This was the older brother of the orange fish in the pond where i live. That pond served as my metaphor for our environment in these writings. The fish's escape would be difficult. He needed to swim against the current of the waves pushing him the other way. THEN, swim WITH the current to be pulled back out to freedom. Of course, it would demand perfect timing, and trust or instinct or something., to go with the flow...
              So, i decided how much i could spend empathizing with the fish's predicament, which there wasn't much i could do (guess he didn't get my message), or watch  the free and relaxed cetaceans. Looking out i saw the whales had come back to that same spot out from me. It was almost a mile out. Then way out, a giant splash was all i caught of a big breech. I thought: guys this is great, i was kind of wanting to see a little more. Gotta get up that hill before dark. Few minutes - Then - right outside the break at the cove - 2 or 300 yds. out - moving like a dolphin she cruised by right by. Always bringing an excited gasp.
                  Air, O2, the blowhole,breathing through the top of the head, the chakras above the head, all these ideas brought a deeper resonance with these beings. A fantasy of an active mind, a longing - doesn't matter. The subjective experience is yours, but can be shared with those who can hear. All these thoughts, with the breath, allowed the activation again. The breath thru the top of the head, the spine tingling depth of self and at the core: a connection to all...a thankful bliss / to live now...
