"As gael.bage suggested, companion planting is a great way of growing plants together for mutual benefit and there are some classic combinations used to enhance growth and/or minimise damage from pest and disease such as tomatoes with (Tagetes)…"

Hello occupiiers. I am a 41 year old ecologist, Buddhist and long-term member of the Green Party of England and Wales. My aim is to help people get out of the system as much as they can whether through local trading schemes, growing their own vegetables, or even just supporting the creative alternatives that are currently existing in their area.
As well as that bottom-up plan to provide alternative solutions to the current system, I believe that the system also has to be changed for those who cannot, or do not want, to leave alternatively, but are sick of being short-changed by their government and multinational corporations as they stand.
Good luck to you all and be careful out there ;-)

What is the role of social media like Occupii, Facebook and Twitter in occupations and protests? Was the Arab spring a "Twitter and Facebook" revolution? How does the Occupy movement use social media? Is it a social media movement or something different?
We are a group of researchers at Uppsala University in Sweden that is headed by me and that is keen to find out answers to these questions. Therefore we conduct the OccupyMedia! Survey. We invite some users of Occupii to participate in it, and were therefore happy if you could take 15 minutes time in order to help us find out what role social media play in contemporary protests:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WG7JRG2
If you have any more questions about the survey, please contact us. If you do not find time to participate or simply find such surveys not interesting or annoying, then please simply ignore our request and excuse any inconvenience. Thanks a lot!
Further information about social media research and the background of this survey can be found in this article:http://occupynewsnetwork.co.uk/why-social-media-research-matters-for-occupy/
If you find this survey a good idea, then we are happy if you can also tell others about it.
Best, Christian Fuchs

Where to begin…first - I apologize for this being so LONG everyone knows I hate wordy drawn out blogs so ... karma? Who knows.
There’s a small retaining pond behind the college apartments. I go back there several times a day; it’s a good area that forces me to have a bit of a walk. …

The Importance Of Reverse Phone Lookup.
Posted by Valentin Stokes on May 3, 2013 at 13:27 0 Comments 0 Likes
The first three digits of the phone number would also help them locate the owner of the phone number. The thing is that if they had just run a phone number lookup, they could have found each other! Before you get any ideas, let me tell you that these sites are perfectly legal and also offer their services free of cost. This happens to many different people all over the world and many of them don't know how they can identify these pranksters. It's extremely… Continue

I was just endiing a campaign in Michigan against our Governor, and wondered what more was out there, what more can I do to help make my country the place I used to love, when I stumbled across a thing called Livestream, where people with the same purpose (supposedly) or like mindness could come together, chat, discuss, plan, and act and I was to say the least, excited. I started chatting and made so many friends and it was then I realized, that I had been wrapped up in my own small…
