Sometimes a Wild God | Coyopa :: lightning in the blood
Sometimes a wild god comes to the table. He is awkward and does not know the ways Of porcelain, of fork and mustard and silver. His voice makes vinegar from wine. When the wild god arrives at the door, You will probably fear him. He reminds you of something dark That you might have dreamt, Or the secret you do not wish to be shared. He will not ring the doorbell; Instead he scrapes with his fingers Leaving blood on the paintwork, Though primroses grow In circles round his feet. You do not want to let him in. The dog barks. The wild god stands in your kitchen. ‘I haven’t much,’ you say And give him the worst of your food. When your wife calls down, You close the door and Tell her it’s fine. The wild god asks for whiskey And you pour a glass for him, Then a glass for yourself. Oh, limitless space. You cough again, Expectorate the snakes and Water down the whiskey, Wondering how you got so old And where your passion went. The wild god reaches into a bag Made of moles and nightingale-skin.

19 Wild Costumes From European Pagan Rituals Still Practiced Today
EmailEmail Halloween is just around the corner, and while the usual Hallmark-holiday-style costumes are plenty of fun, there are also options for those of us that want something a little wilder. Photographer Charles Freger has traveled through 19 European nations to gather pictures of impressive costumes from pagan rituals that have survived to this day. The series, entitled “Wilder Mann,” inspires images of an older, wilder and more tribal Europe filled with wild beasts, bonfires and pagan gods. Website: charlesfreger.com
The 33 Most Beautiful Abandoned Places In The World
Beauty Without Bunnies
The list includes companies that make cosmetics, personal-care products, household-cleaning products, and other common household products. In the U.S., no law requires that these types of products be tested on animals, and companies can choose not to sell their products in countries such as China, where tests on animals are required for cosmetics and other products. Companies on this list should be supported for their commitment to manufacturing products without harming any animals. Companies that aren't on this list should be boycotted until they implement a policy that prohibits animal testing. The list does not include companies that manufacture only products that are required by law to be tested on animals (e.g., pharmaceuticals and garden chemicals).
America Could End Homelessness in One Year by Doing This
If America really cared about solving the problem of homelessness among it’s citizenry, here’s an idea that would work. Oh- and that opening line references the fact that as far back as 2011 empty houses in America outnumbered homeless families by five times, according to Amnesty International. Anyway, let’s say the problem with homeless people in America was a result of not enough housing. Then, this idea would work. Did you know that you can make houses out of plastic bottles? By filling them with sand, and molding them together with mud or cement, the walls created are actually bullet proof, fire proof, and will maintain an comfortable indoor temperature of 64 degrees in the summer time. And it’s not like there is any shortage on used plastic bottles out there. “The United States uses 129.6 Million plastic bottles per day which is 47.3 Billion plastic bottles per year. To build a two bedroom, 1200 square foot home, it takes about 14,000 bottles.
The largest photo ever taken of Tokyo is zoomable, and it is glorious:
It took photographer Jeffrey Martin two days of shoot and four months of editing to create the interactive panorama you’re about to experience. At 600,000 pixels wide, it would measure 50 meters by 100 meters if printed at photographic resolution. And yes, it is every bit as awesome as it sounds. Go ahead. Do you feel like some ridiculously awesome, eagle-eyed super mutant? It’s the idea of creating a view that literally extends our senses far beyond what we can sense on our own. The founder of 360Cities.net, a website where photographers can upload 360-degree images of beatiful locations around the globe, Martin is no stranger to this medium. I use a Canon SLR (in this case, a 7D) and a 400mm lens (in this case a canon L f/5.6 lens) mounted on a Clauss Rodeo on gigapixel robot which is controlled by a tethered laptop to move the camera and fire the shutter while the camera is moving. Also, disk space. (Link)
Zaļā dzīvesstila žurnāls "Vides Vēstis"
Bīstamāko produktu saraksts Anitra Tooma Nesen e-pastā saņēmu šādu vēstuli: «Labdien! Alises vēstule mani pamatīgi piezemēja – tik tiešām, žurnālā «Vides Vēstis» jau 14 gadus rakstām par dažādām bīstamībām, kas apdraud cilvēku veselību un planētas nākotni, bet šādas ābeces patiesības neesam skaidrojuši. Kaitīgās vielas mēs visbiežāk apēdam, ieelpojam vai uzsmērējam uz ādas, tāpēc vispirms jātaisa lielā revīzija virtuvē un vannas istabā. Dažādas vielas organismā visbiežāk nokļūst caur muti, plaušām un ādu. Ļoti bieži svešdabīgās vielas organismā iekļūst caur plaušām. Ādas uzdevums ir pasargāt organismu, tāpēc kaitīgo vielu iedarbība caur ādu nenotiek tik ātri. Izrādās, ka svešdabīgās vielas vislabprātāk uzkrājas saistaudos, kaulos un taukos, asinsrite caur taukiem ir lēna, tāpēc bieži vien novājēšana izraisa slimību saasinājumu. Gaļa un zivis satur vairāk pesticīdu nekā augļi un dārzeņi Vairāk nekā 95% dioksīnu, ko, paši neapzinoties, apēdam, atrodas zivīs, gaļā, piena produktos, olās.
