Yet the farmer in me has not yet smothered the MBA. The following is an objective analysis of whether or not the output of backyard chickens can ultimately re-coop the costs. The answer was surprising, and I have produced 5 key recommendations for economically raising backyard chickens. Friends frequently ask me whether or not raising my hens is cost-effective. Everything I've read on the subject in blogs and books says NO. Instead, enthusiasts emphasize personal satisfaction and pet-potential. These are no doubt the true goals of backyard chicken-raising. Yet I am weary of deflecting this common question, and I am happy to further study my birds. Not to mention that my personal flock serves as a wonderful test case. I raise two hens (the minimum flock size) in New York City (the most costly and crowded environment). If I can do this cost-effectively, anyone can! [IMG 54832 225x300 %organic food] http://www.goodeater.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/IMG_54832.jpg I'll address assumptions as we go, but it is important to note that I have sought to save money whenever possible, using found objects and substituting my labor for fancy equipment. The most significant example is the chicken coop itself. Good wooden chicken coops for small flocks sell for $300-450. Yet it would take a long time to recoup that money. I was about to join those ranks, until I found, the dresser. . . Returning home from a night on the town, I came across a solid wooden dresser down the block. With a weekend of work, I turned her into a chicken mansion NYC-size. The first drawer is filled with bedding material. The second drawer is a perch. The top right drawer is a nesting box. Everything else is hollowed out. And after several iterations, I put the whole thing on stilts. Enough fluff.

[FairfieldLife] Raj Patel on Slow Politics and the Zapatista
Slow Politics http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/rajpatel/home/~3/Wlp-nKRozkc/?utm_source\ =feedburnerutm_medium=email Posted: 03 Jun 2010 03:59 AM PDT Britain's dealing with a Conservative Prime Minister in a coalition with Liberal Democrats. Rather than steamrolling through the aggressive (and regressive) plans for change that he'd initially penned, David Cameron has to negotiate a little with the Lib Dems. Just a little, mind. It's not like he's having to discuss this with folk who are fierce ideological opponents. Liberalism once had some fairly impressive views about social change and the evils of private property http://virtualstoa.net/2010/05/24/liberalism-once-upon-a-time/ but today, Liberal Democrats are Conservatives' super-ego: they'll moralise, opine, quake and then let the free market do its thing. But at least there's the illusion of a coalition government, in which tough ideological differences need to be overcome. The New Statesman http://www.newstatesman.com/uk-politics/2010/05/government-term-pace-mi\ nisters recently carried a piece which drew on my treatment of Zapatista politics, of what I called `Slow Politics'. Michel Bauwens at the P2P Foundation http://blog.p2pfoundation.net/ asked whether I could make the discussion available and so, for what it's worth, here are the few relevant pages from The Value of Nothing. Be warned, though. There's little here that Cameron and Clegg might be able to adopt. Changing the tempo of the LibDem-Conservative coalition is unlikely to change its politics. What the Zapatista's demand is something altogether more democratic, something that treats property relations very differently, and asks much more from citizens than simply for patience while their leaders sort things out .

[FairfieldLife] Rick's interviews with Jim Flanegin
As much as I question Rick's standard in a number of issues I must admit he does a jolly good job interviewing people. Seeing his talk with Jim Flanegin it comes to mind how much hatred and downright envy Jim received from a fellow on this forum. Is it his Buddhism that drove him mad with envy, or simply the fact that on his old days he somehow realize that 40 years ago he dropped the only valuable practice he would ever know ? Perhaps both. In my humble view Barry, the Turq even if he wanted, would not be able to build an integrity as Jim Flanegin did in a few years of TM. See for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CyxYurZOeI

[FairfieldLife] The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus
I watched this on Bluray last night and enjoyed it. I've always been a fan of Terry Gilliam's movies. Unfortunately due to Heath Ledger's untimely death they came up with a solution to finish the film that I don't think works as well as they think it does. But I think folks here will enjoy the film especially with its references to tantra, etc. I may watch the film again tonight with the commentary. Since I know there are a number of Netflix users here I see that The Messengers is now available Watch Instantly in HD. That's the movie with Woody Harrelson and Ben Foster who is from Fairfield. I may watch it over the weekend. Splice opened this weekend but not at my local theater. Not sure what is up with that but they have a bunch of teen movies playing. Maybe they went from two 3D projectors to more. I'm not happy about that as I think 3D is a fad. They're one of the only all digital theaters in the area (8 auditoriums) and probably updating more projectors for 3D isn't that much of an investment.

Which ofcourse is the end of capitalism :-) I get so fed up with the abuses of capitalism I wouldn't mind seeing it all go away. Seems like karmic justice. It's easily gamed by confidence men and so many of the giant megabusinesses operate like organized crime and probably VERY intentionally. Over the years I've watched corporate execs adopt whatever they can get away with including drug dealer oriented business models (very popular in the US, just look at Comcast cable). And this wasn't from my armchair but sometimes sitting in a boardroom. It's cutthroat capitalism that needs to be abolished. Small business is okay but these giant companies are just dinosaurs behaving like Frankenstein monsters. And they aren't needed anymore because you can even build a Boeing jet without manufacturing all the parts (as a recent online report pointed out). These days such companies assemble parts from other vendors. So you could even have regional or local car assembly plants, possibly franchised ones. Barter won't work because it is too inconvenient. People will still want some convenient medium of exchange. That's why currency came into being. What you may want to resist is running on totally electronic funds which they keep trying to sell you in sci-fi movies.

Raising chickens has never really been about the cost effectiveness. I have seven chickens. Raising chickens is for self sufficiency. If the economy crashes more then we will need to be responsible for our own food. Although you buy feed for chickens, I think this is greatly over emphasized, afterall, there are wild chickens who are not given feed daily.Feed stores would have you believe that you cannot raise chickens without it. I just feed my chickens the skins from a butternut squash, which they devoured.

Yet the farmer in me has not yet smothered the MBA. The following is an objective analysis of whether or not the output of backyard chickens can ultimately re-coop the costs. The answer was surprising, and I have produced 5 key recommendations for economically raising backyard chickens. Friends frequently ask me whether or not raising my hens is cost-effective. Everything I've read on the subject in blogs and books says NO. Instead, enthusiasts emphasize personal satisfaction and pet-potential. These are no doubt the true goals of backyard chicken-raising. Yet I am weary of deflecting this common question, and I am happy to further study my birds. Not to mention that my personal flock serves as a wonderful test case. I raise two hens (the minimum flock size) in New York City (the most costly and crowded environment). If I can do this cost-effectively, anyone can!

[FairfieldLife] Re: Acedia Fairfield
I was once married to someone who is bipolar and he has taken meds. for many years.The crucial point to me was that the patient needs a really good psychiatrist who can find the right medicine. There have been great advances in medicine for depression and I'm sure that many of them do not hurt your experience. When someone is really managing their illness, they know the signs of a depression comming on and at that point it is more crisis management and good spiritual experience is not as much the foucs. When in maintenance mode one can reduce medicines and work closely with a good doctor and have good experience as well as add other alternative practices to help reduce the occurence of depression. Russ England is a great psychiatrist/governor in Fairfield. He is up to date on the advancements. I think the problem for many is the affordability of a really good psychiatrist. Insurance often pays half the bill and one visit could be $300 or more. With bipolar illness, a person may seem very enlightened with the high (or is it manic depression?)... anyway the mania, or good experience makes it appear that they are very evolved and nothing bothers them. then depression can set it and this is very contrasting. My X had his first depression in his twenties. I think the lack of having prior experience of depression can leave one ill-equipted to know what to do. I was at a total loss the first time I saw him go into depression.

My X manages his bipolar very well. Because we have kids together and it is often inherited, we have educated them on the disease. He recently felt the depression coming on again so he made an urgent appt with his doctor and his meds were adjusted. His depression improved with the adjustment. With the advancements in this illness and his good doctor he does pretty well. The problem again for many is 1. Not having the where-with-all to get to a good doctor immediately. Had I understood this first time around, I would have forgotten the stigma of mental illness and got him into a good pschiatric hospital. 2. the affordability of a PSCHIATRIST. When I hear of someone taking PROZAC, i squirm. I think it is a generic type medicine. (not sure tho) The first medicine prescribed to my X, had no affect, then he got onto lithium (21 years ago) and it was like a miracle drug. He could not focus or do any work due to his depression but after a few days of lithium, he was able to do work. Being able to focus and do work, at least gave him something to do, other than think about how terrible he felt.

When I hear of someone taking PROZAC, i squirm. I think it is a generic type medicine. (not sure tho) Prozac is more for plain-vanilla depression, not for the kind you have with bipolar disorder/manic depression. But if a person doesn't have a history of big mood swings, and their first swing is into depression, there'd be no reason, I don't think, for the doctor to suspect that it was manic-depression rather than regular depression. So Prozac may be an appropriate first choice in terms of the person's history, even if it turns out to have been the wrong one as the illness develops, if you see what I mean. And for regular depression--i.e., with no manic swings-- Prozac does seem to help many people. (It *can* also help with depression in bipolar disorder, but only if the mood swings have first been stabilized with lithium or something similar. Otherwise, Prozac by itself can trigger mania.) The first medicine prescribed to my X, had no affect, then he got onto lithium (21 years ago) and it was like a miracle drug. Lithium is a miracle drug for many with bipolar disorder. It doesn't work well for everybody, though. He could not focus or do any work due to his depression but after a few days of lithium, he was able to do work. Being able to focus and do work, at least gave him something to do, other than think about how terrible he felt. This was the beginning of recovery. He was fortunate that he found a good psychiatrist, that lithium worked for him, that he had you supporting him, and that he has had the self-discipline to stick with his treatment. It's a really tough disorder to deal with. Best wishes to all of you, and thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.

I kept my bottle of Prozac on that kitchen table. I was asked if DEVCO knew about the bottle. I responded that they didn't ask. TBs drew away from the bottle, everyone else just enjoyed the tea, scones and conversation. I took the bottle with me to my Ayurvedic consult. I was told if I took panchakarma I would have to stay on the Prozac exactly as ordered, how much PK did I want to schedule and did I want to take it in our out of Raj residence? Hopefully this will be a wake up call *of a different kind* for these groups that pretend to dispense wisdom, but instead delve in an area where they really have little expertise. This was to happen as part of our dealing with lessors like consultants at Whole Foods and the like. We would actually for the first time let low lives become involved in our affairs. Haven't we dealt with an underclass all of our existence by paying meditators and maybe sidhas very low wages for the privilege or working in the library or presiding over TSR? -- Money can't buy you friends, but it does get you a better class of enemy Spike Milligan
