Honey is a great reason, as there is nothing that beats your own homemade honey, but there are other things the bees also produce. For example, they produce beeswax, which you can use to make your own candles and beauty products. Pollination is also a good reason to have bees, as if you have a small garden it can produce lots of products due to the large amount of bees that will pollinate it. A final reason to do some beekeeping is that bees are very independent, and do not require a lot of maintenance. However, there are a few cons to look into as well. The first, and most major one is probably the fact that bees can sting. Another issue is the cost of supplies, and sometimes when beekeeping, the first year does not go very well.\n\nhttps://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2013/08/07/20/13/bee-170551_960_720.jpg\n\nSo, let's get started! But before we do that, make sure that you check the local laws. Some places do not allow beekeeping. Also, know that bees take the quickest path from one location to another, known as a beeline, and that they may defecate in midair. When choosing a place to put a hive, try to make it in an open space, and let it get a little bit of sunlight (not too much). The best place to put a hive is in a sheltered area, not a hilltop as those are too windy. As you may know, nectar comes from different kinds of flowers. In fact, honey may taste very different depending on which kinds of flowers are the main source for the nectar that the bees bring back to the hive. Be careful about pesticides, as they can kill bees, and if they don't initially and the bee brings it back it can kill other bees or even the queen bee.\n\nhttp://www.almanac.com/sites/default/files/d6/images/bee-clothing.jpeg\n\nThere is quite a bit of equipment that you will need to start beekeeping. The first major piece of equipment is beekeeping clothing. You need to have proper protection from the bees, or else you may get stung. Generally, for a beginner, a veil is important, along with sting proof gloves and sting proof clothing that covers your entire body. Other than the hive, which I will discuss later, you will need something called a smoker, which produces smoke and help the bees calm down. You will also need something called a hive tool, which is used to loosen the frames and the boxes that bees are in. One of the last tools you will need is something called the uncapping knife, which is used uncap wax cells where the honey is stored. There are plenty of places that you can go to to purchase beekeeping equipment.\n\nAnother thing to consider before buying the bees themselves is a hive. The most common hive for beginners is a hive that uses the Langstroth method.\nhttp://www.almanac.com/sites/default/files/d6/images/langstrothHiveIllus.gif\nYou don't really need to worry about how to exactly build it though, as there are many kits for sale that are under $150. There are a few things to consider about the exact location of the hive. One important one is that it can be warmed by the morning sun. It should also be sheltered from the wind. A beehive needs to be near a source of water, as bees also need to drink. The beehive should be painted white or black, depending on where you live, but never with a toxic paint. To prevent bees from being a nuisance, there should be a fence around nearby street locations so that the bees fly over it.\n\nhttps://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2016/04/14/14/18/silk-bee-1328961_960_720.jpg\n\nAfter you have built a beehive, you will need to find some bees. Bees are very social creatures, and that is why it is important to know the basics of bee society. There are three main levels of bees: the worker, the drone, and the queen. Worker bees are females and are responsible for things like tending to the hive, its queen, guarding the hive's entrance, and collecting food. Drones are the males, and the only thing they need to do is mate with the queen. The queen herself is responsible for the genetic traits found withing a colony. To get bees, you can go through the wild and search for clusters of bees called swarms. If these swarms are on a tree limb, it is best to cut the entire limb and gently shake the bees into a container. Bees on a flat surface can be guided with a piece of cardboard, or some smoke behind them. However, by getting these bees for free, they may have certain diseases or have poor genetic material, resulting in weak bees. You should also be careful with regards to property laws, as taking a beehive on someone else's property may be considered stealing.\n\nhttps://i.ytimg.com/vi/eFqrbPdZuTA/maxresdefault.jpg\n\nThere are two main ways in which you can buy bees, which are in a package or a nucleus. The package method comes stocked with some worker bees, a queen bee, and some sweet syrup for the bees to eat out of. Here is where you make an important decision: How to introduce the bees to the queen. There are two main methods, the indirect method and the direct method. In the indirect method, the bees eat their way through food to get to the queen and slowly get used to her. This method is safer but may take longer. The direct method is to let out the queen bee directly into the hive, but the bees may attack her and destroy the hive. However, if the bees do not attack her, or the queen survives the attack, it may be faster than the indirect method, but it is also more risky. The other kind of thing that you can buy is a nucleus, which is already a small, fully functioning hive. You may, however, run into the fact that the queen is a weak or old queen, resulting in poor honey production and weak bees.\n\nhttps://www.farminguk.com/images/News/20600_1.jpg\n\nBefore you can start harvesting the liquid-gold that bees make, you need to know about some diseases that bees can catch. Here are the most common ones: Varroa Mites, which are parasites that attack both the larvae and adult bees. A medicine called Apistan appears to work well on them. Foulbrood is a virus that can deform and kill sealed broods of honeybees. CCD, or colony collapse disorder, is when bees just start leaving the hive. There is no cure for it, but some researchers have found that it is caused by both of fungus and a certain virus being present. When winter comes, you may want to wrap up your beehive, but make sure that the bees are not literally trapped in the hive.\n\nhttps://zeebeeman.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/honey-harvest.jpg\n\nSo, now you have the bees, which means that you have honey. Before you start harvesting honey by yourself, it is recommended that you go out with an expert for a few times to get the hang of it. Generally, there is a basic process of collecting honey. You need to make sure that you use small, gentle movement instead of large ones when collecting honey. The first step is get the bees off of the supers (a special layer in the bee hive). Try not to use smoke, as this may affect the taste of the honey. The next step is to remove the supers, and get the honey out of them. This can be done by uncapping the wax on the combs, or by purchasing a special extractor or centrifuge to make it easier. After this is done, you should strain the honey through cheesecloth to remove excess wax. Keep the honey in a settling tank to allow air bubbles to go up and bring foreign object with them, making those objects easier to remove. Then, you will need to skim off the foam. After you figure out which temperature you can store the honey at, you can start bottling it and then start selling it!\n\nI hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial.

Feeling stylish and always a little sexy in my beekeepers garb, I grab my smoker in one hand and my hive tool in the other and bounce like Tigger out into my beloved bee-yard.  The apiary is no longer the two original hives -- expansion was inevitable. On this day, we are sitting pretty at 7 hives.   Temperatures reaching into the 90's with some notable humidity, I feel simple pure joy as I remove the bricks from the top of the hive and pry off the first of the hive covers.  I'm immediately met with a whiff of a gentle sweet smell and hear the simple quiet buzz of the girls at work -- as a couple of crabby ladies pop out and ping off my veil, informing me that I'm in their space.  I tell myself \"it is ok, settle down, all is well\".  After a few gentle puffs of cool smoke we all seem to calm down a bit. 

\n

Today, I'm checking in on a brand new queen that I grafted (created) just six weeks ago.  Four weeks later, I noted eggs and larva in this hive, so I know the queen emerged and mated.  Today's work is simple... find this queen and mark her -- always assuming that she is still alive today!

\n

 That's the queen -- dead-center

\n

Now, the bee \"authorities\" all claim that you should gently hold the queen between thumb and finger and then very carefully place a small spot of paint on her thorax.  Let it dry and then release her back into the colony. The color is specific to the last 2 digits of the year.  Pretty simple!  What the experts don't seem to mention is that you must search among 50,000 bees buzzing about -- grumpy and stressed in the late summer heat during the dearth of late nectar.  Now that I have had the hive open for a few minutes, everything feels frantic.  Sweat is dripping from every pore in my body while I search frame by frame looking for that one special bug.  I find my mind racing.  Where the heck is that she?  As time passes, the open hive is defenseless to the other bees in the bee-yard and for miles around -- causing the girls to become more and more feisty and defensive as I become more impatient with the task at hand.

\n

\"Oh yippy skippy, I found her!\"  This is so much better than finding Waldo (although I rock at that too).  I move the frame she's crawling on into a special box to protect her (mostly from myself) for the moment.  Put the hive back together and toss on a cover.  That should keep the other bees from robbing the hive for a few moments.  With the paint pen readied, it is time to take on the task of placing a dot on her back.  I, once again, try to locate the queen.  Darn this lady has speed - moving all over the frame and ducking through holes in the comb arriving on the opposite side.  

\n

\n

I spend some time trying to corner and catch her but fail as she flies off the frame and runs (breaking my 100M dash pace) under the hive.  The \"experts\" don't mention that the fat plump mated queen can still fly!  Oh no, what have I done?! Tears well up. But realize my friends, this is no ordinary queen, she's one that I grafted from a colony with a queen who I had over-wintered not once but twice! She's the only queen to emerge and mate from the 36 cells I thought I successfully grafted back in late June (The other grafts were a complete fail after taking an unplanned dive off the deck -- but that too is another story.  My Bad!)

\n

Now, sadly, I must admit that this is not the first time I have had a queen who had a story to tell . . . but I digress... I carefully drop the frame, sputter a few less than positive words to myself and without a thought lean the entire hive to one side in hopes of finding my Queen. Now I know what you\u2019re thinking -- \"BAD IDEA!\", \"DON'T DO THAT!\".   Trust me, I thought that too, but I needed find that queen, as without her the colony would dwindle and die.  I had no replacement, no plan B.

\n

\n

Awesome sauce! I found her - a REAL RESCUE.  Scooping her up in my gloved hand and leaning the hive back down into its normal position, I commenced my attempt to mark her with a \"small\" white dot ... well it turned out she got herself a big fat splotch! (Serves her right!) Then acting like nothing unusual ever happened (which in some ways is was no different than any other bee-yard adventure), I released her into the hive, replaced the missing frame and put the inner & outer cover back in place. 

\n

Feeling fairly good with the overall final outcome (queen still alive, MARKED and in the hive), I collected my beekeeping stuff and snuffed the smoker.  Just another fun day of awesome skillfulness in the bee-yard.

\n

I love the Doolittle Method for grafting (combined with the use of a Cloake board)!  Don't get faked out, it is not \"do little\" but a name for the method of grafting/\u201ccreating\u201d queens.  

\n
    \n
  1. Choose carefully from a frame of eggs and larva, selecting the tiniest larva in hopes it is < 24 hours old AND floating it in a pool of delicious royal jelly.  
    2. \n
  2. Once the grafts are selected and delicately scooped up (careful not to flip the larva and block the sphericals/\"breathing tubes\" -- drowning them in the process), place them in plastic queen cells on a grafting bar fitted into a frame.  
    3. \n
  3. Inserted the frame into a queen-less hive that has been outfitted and manipulated for several days with the use of a Cloake Board.  
    4. \n
  4. With the proper planning and manipulation, tens of thousands of nurse bees fill the top hive box and will feed the grafts royal jelly while draw out the new queen cells, and care for the developing queens over the following 11 days.

So, What is a swarm of #bees?

\n

Swarming of bees is when the parent family is forced to split into two almost equal parts. At a time when the first part will remain in the same habitat, second (with old or young bee queen) will hit the road to search for a new residence. 

\n

About this reproduction is a lot of debate among scholars and practitioners #beekeepers.

\n

How to put a swarm in the hive?

\n

In my opinion, the most effective planting bees by using the gangway. Gangway for Swarming are a sheet of plywood or fiberboard, one end of which is tapered to 20 cm with the narrow end Gangways are placed on the arrivals Board.

\n

The longitudinal and the underside of the plywood edge slats. Unlike violent landing directly on frame in hive with a swarm of bees settled gangway self-propelled. Bees naturally go through the notches. Beautiful come, together, without crowding, injury and anger bees. To monitor this process very interesting. Landing a swarm in a hive with staircases, we can say, gentle way.

\n

\n

The beekeeper, as it invites and does not force the bees to occupy a well-appointed nest.

\n

The work planted by this method, the swarm starts the next morning. After landing a swarm in a new hive has no one bee will not return to the old hive. If this is an early swarm, he manages to gain strength to the main trick.

\n

#Swarm activity due to the fact that the first time the bees are too busy rearing brood and they are dominated by the instinct of accumulation of feed. 

\n

On second plan is being pushed equally important is the instinct of procreation. Sometimes the bees fill the cells so that the bee queen there is no place even to lay eggs.

\n

The main task of the beekeeper in the summer \u2013 not only to increase the strength of bee colonies, but also to keep them in working condition.

 SteemHouse Welcomes New Bees! 

\n

We got our shipment in of bees in today! Finally! Now we can stop with all the inefficient, fake hand pollinating. You can't beat mother nature when it comes to anything in nature! 

\n

 There is a saying about busy bees and let me tell you, these bees started faster than any other bees we have ever had.  Usually, when we get a shipment of bees, we set the out in the Steemhouse, and I run thru the steps to get the hive ready. The last step is to open the little slider that allows the bees out of the hive. 

\n

 I usually sit and watch for any bee movement, and in about four or five minutes they will start to emerge. This time, I walked away for less than a minute and bees were lined up to get out of the hive, granted we often get bees during the colder months so that may slow them down a bit. 

\n
\n

 Let's just hope they keep up the enthusiasm and start some round the clock pollination!

\n
\n

 This is the box that holds the hive inside, these bees do not make honey, but they earn their keep just the same.  The hole that you see right in the center of the lid is the entrance and exit holes, the plastic slider moves up and you can set it to where the bees can move in and out freely or just enter the hive and stay there. This comes in handy if you ever want to relocate the hive. If you were to move the hive while the bees are out, they would be lost. You would have a large swarm of bees hovering where the hive used to be. They have a great memory as far as the location of the hive, but no problem-solving skills to find the new location. 

\n


\n

I shot some video of me setting up the hive and it is awful, it's hard to shoot and work the box with only one hand, so please forgive me for the crap quality, but I think it covers most of it.

 Quick update on the tomatoes, last week I showed you a few new baby tomatoes. this week they have grown a little bit, getting close to golf ball size. So now with the bees in, we should see new tomatoes start to pack on the vines. Hold on tight folks, the fun is just starting!

\n
\n

\n

Sorry for the lack of updates, but things are really moving right now, I'll try to get more updates in as we go.

\n

Thanks for stopping by and hope you come back!

(membrane winged insects) Do you know what being a social insect means? They are insects which live in large groups. These are called colonies and a single honey bee colony can have as many as 60,000 bees in it. With so many bees in each colony, it is important that different jobs are given to different bees, and that each bee knows what it should be doing.\nOrganization is Important for Bees\n\nOrganization is important because the success of the colony is dependent on how well the bees work their jobs. Team work among the colony is vital for the hive to function well. And so for the good of the hive, the entire colony must work as a team. In case you don\u2019t exactly know, a hive is the bee\u2019s home or nest, where eggs are laid and the bees store their ready made honey. Inside the hive, there are three types of bees: the queen, workers, and drones. Each bee has its own purpose within this hive.\n\nhttps://savetheearth.coop/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/05b9387d-ec48-42d4-bc69-1b4e4f8b8df5-4.png\n\nThe Queen of The Hive\nThere is only one queen within a typical hive and \u2013 interesting fact \u2013 the male drones actually do not have stingers. The queen, as well as worker bees, have stings at the end of their abdomens, which they use in emergencies to defend their territory should the hive be attacked. The queen is the largest bee in the hive, with a longer abdomen, a non hairy shiny thorax (middle section). She maintains the colony\u2019s numbers by laying as many eggs as she possibly can, laying up to 2,000 eggs a day.\n\nWorker Bees\nThe worker bees outnumber the other bees in the hive, although they are the smallest members of the beehive. Did you know that, in fact, all worker bees are female? And as I previously mentioned, worker bees have stingers; however, they can only sting once and then they die because when they sting, parts of their internal organs are pulled out with the sting. Ouch.\n\nWhy are Honey Bees So Important\nHoney bees are very important. Why is this? They are the strongest link in the chain between the people who grow the food and the people who eat the food. Without bee pollination, the food we eat could decrease by up to a 3rd. Many fruits such as oranges, apples, peaches, pears, strawberries, cherries, vegetables, nuts and seeds are all pollinated by worker bees. As well as pollinating many crops, honey produced by honey bees is a very important source of energy especially in poorer nations.\n\nHow Can we Help Honey Bees? \nHumans have been harvesting honey for at least 6000 years, possibly longer. At this present time bees are suffering from many conditions which have plummeted their numbers to drastic levels and many hives have mysteriously disappeared. The causes aren\u2019t fully understood, but are usually blamed on the rising use of pesticides, and many diseases which colonies tend to suffer from like the deadly cripaviridae, and chronic bee paralysis virus. Everything in our absolute capability must be done to find the causes. We we must protect bee colonies.\n\nWe must also encourage wild bees by planting flowers, particularly flowers they like, which will help encourage their numbers. It\u2019s quite simple. Without bees, we will not be able to eat the necessary fruits and vegetable we need in our diets. No bees, no ecosystem. If the bees go, they will take us with them.\n\nhttps://savetheearth.coop/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/seeds-300x225.jpg?42a6f2\n\nJoin us here and be part of a movement to make change http://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/save-the-earth-the-peoples-cooperative", + "category": "bees", "children": 0, - "created": "2016-07-26T09:14:00", - "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "created": "2016-08-06T16:14:48", + "curator_payout_value": "0.044 HBD", "depth": 0, "is_paidout": true, "json_metadata": { - "links": [ - "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbMV9qYIXqM" + "image": [ + "https://savetheearth.coop/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/05b9387d-ec48-42d4-bc69-1b4e4f8b8df5-3.png" ], "tags": [ - "self", - "harverting", - "honey", - "flow", - "hive" + "bees", + "environment", + "selfsufficiancy", + "orgaincfood", + "ecovillages" ] }, "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", - "net_rshares": 1684093549, - "payout": 0.0, - "payout_at": "2016-08-26T09:17:27", + "net_rshares": 213626276140, + "payout": 0.19, + "payout_at": "2016-09-06T04:43:30", "pending_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", "percent_hbd": 10000, - "permlink": "self-harvesting-honey-with-flow-hive", - "post_id": 369381, + "permlink": "what-are-honey-bees-and-why-are-they-important", + "post_id": 646369, "reblogs": 0, "replies": [], "stats": { "flag_weight": 0.0, "gray": false, "hide": false, - "total_votes": 4 + "total_votes": 3 }, - "title": "Self harvesting honey with Flow Hive", - "updated": "2016-07-26T09:14:00", - "url": "/self/@anwar78/self-harvesting-honey-with-flow-hive" - }, + "title": "What are Honey Bees And Why Are They Important?", + "updated": "2016-08-06T16:14:48", + "url": "/bees/@sofabear/what-are-honey-bees-and-why-are-they-important" + }, { "active_votes": [ { - "rshares": 22100005809322, - "voter": "dantheman" - }, - { - "rshares": 9247355213510, - "voter": "pharesim" + "rshares": 712983617211, + "voter": "erath" }, { - "rshares": 5426219311263, - "voter": "kushed" + "rshares": 80972403386, + "voter": "friend5" }, { - "rshares": 2470277036, + "rshares": 3083589875, "voter": "boy" }, { - "rshares": 2998174524, + "rshares": 3742391312, "voter": "bue-witness" }, { - "rshares": 567607877, + "rshares": 708653898, "voter": "bunny" }, { - "rshares": 3955104359988, + "rshares": 1534036564075, "voter": "complexring" }, { - "rshares": 1469448037898, - "voter": "steemychicken1" - }, - { - "rshares": 41962144669, + "rshares": 52054573688, "voter": "bue" }, { - "rshares": 1324181972, + "rshares": 1653058252, "voter": "mini" }, { - "rshares": 170709221, + "rshares": 213211427, "voter": "moon" }, { - "rshares": 200381618688, - "voter": "b0y2k" + "rshares": 51200689219, + "voter": "twiceuponatime" }, { - "rshares": 1206870273222, - "voter": "steempower" + "rshares": 268926183681, + "voter": "indominon" }, { - "rshares": 11853694119, - "voter": "proctologic" + "rshares": 3000331770000, + "voter": "onceuponatime" }, { - "rshares": 496877572, - "voter": "healthcare" + "rshares": 714069515661, + "voter": "marginal" }, { - "rshares": 725581132, - "voter": "daniel.pan" + "rshares": 74515224928, + "voter": "vault" }, { - "rshares": 2676277622352, - "voter": "donkeypong" + "rshares": 613281016, + "voter": "healthcare" }, { - "rshares": 72633920246, - "voter": "jchch" + "rshares": 882691586, + "voter": "daniel.pan" }, { - "rshares": 230147170, + "rshares": 287408803, "voter": "helen.tan" }, { - "rshares": 45137904925, - "voter": "tshering-tamang" - }, - { - "rshares": 202478365319, - "voter": "camilla" - }, - { - "rshares": 17202412248, - "voter": "richman" - }, - { - "rshares": 1798826545, + "rshares": 1449938852, "voter": "murh" }, { - "rshares": 601900636, - "voter": "kodi" - }, - { - "rshares": 473933491812, - "voter": "cyber" - }, - { - "rshares": 11250004760, - "voter": "btotherest" - }, - { - "rshares": 5487596603, - "voter": "karbonxx" - }, - { - "rshares": 325671008768, - "voter": "hedge-x" - }, - { - "rshares": 41282058831, - "voter": "michaelx" - }, - { - "rshares": 33841331754, - "voter": "cheftony" + "rshares": 5248703708, + "voter": "magnebit" }, { - "rshares": 191120735629, - "voter": "mexbit" - }, + "rshares": 56782755, + "voter": "amyerstownfarm" + } + ], + "author": "amyerstownfarm", + "author_payout_value": "10.490 HBD", + "author_reputation": 43.03, + "beneficiaries": [], + "blacklists": [], + "body": "

\nImagine the tickle of the little legs going about all up and down your body and then... No not that kind of al natural! \n\nYou've heard about the plight of the beekeeping community. You've heard about the dying bees and how \"scientists\" are baffled by the strange die offs and disappearances. Well friends, I have kept bees for over 10 years and the only die offs I had were those that came as a mistake of my own. Those who feel they know whats going on only know the half of it (myself included). \n\nThe subject of beekeeping is a hot topic so I am sure I'll have plenty of folks who want to chime in. Feel free. After all, they are the biggest pollinator for the hosts of crops that are produced in all over the world. Given the relatively new problem facing beekeeping these days, I thought I might interject a few of my own practices. \n\n
http://myerstownfamilyfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/IMG_20140511_092927_996-1.jpg
\nIn full disclosure, I've been out of the beekeeping business for 2 years due to a move to Alaska and now a move back to Missouri. Although, plans are set to restore the Apiary I once had. \n\nWhen I meet folks who like the concept of beekeeping but are an older generation who have not been listening much to the beekeeping world, the first thing they always ask is: How are the bees doing with the Mites? Truth is, Mites have not been an issue for a long time. The bees have learned to adapt. The beekeepers have adapted their methods to make mites (veroa) a non issue. \n\nWhat is my own method of managing this pesky little problem is simple?\n\nhttp://myerstownfamilyfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/dsc01758smaller.jpg \nI have a flour sifter that I fill with powdered sugar. I select a time in the spring and in the fall and I take the boxes loose and sift powdered sugar over the frames of each of the boxes. Boom Done. How does this work? When you coat all of the bees in the sweet white powder, you not only end up with little white ghosts flying around, but you also give the bees a sweet incentive to clean each other off. In the process, they also find the mites and remove them from their sisters and they fall down onto the bottom board where, if you have installed a screened bottom board, they fall through and are out of the hive. This has been a very successful method for me. \n\n
http://myerstownfamilyfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/20150515_162746small.jpg
\nA secondary method is to NOT requeen every year or so. Many beekeepers requeen in order to keep the brood capacity high and to manage the breed type. I dont care about breeds, I only care that my bees are healthy and productive. By not requeening each time, this gives the natural processes of the hive the ability to adapt to whatever diseases may be present. \n\nThe hive has a normal process of supersedure that is a process by which the workers are alerted to the waning pheromone of the queen and the select a couple young eggs that she has laid and they place it in a \"queen cell\" to which they feed the larva a full diet of royal jelly. This higher potency diet gives the larva the nutrients necessary to develop the reproductive organs fully and become a queen. The new queen emerge out of the cell and escape out the hive to which drones sensing her pheromone excite and attempt to bread with her. After this period, she has all of the sperm she'll ever need to fertilize the eggs for the rest of her life. She goes back into the hive from which she was born and kills the old queen and becomes the new queen. \n\n
http://myerstownfamilyfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/20150411_170230small.jpg
\nBy allowing this natural process to occur, one allows the successful genetic traits to continue on to the next generation which in turn, effects your other hives in the apiary. The problem of today's beekeeping methods are compounded by the artificial management of hives. Beekeepers move hives around to various fields to take advantage of the different pollination periods, they requeen with queens from a different \"Breeder\", and they use toxic chemicals on the bees to control every malady that is known instead of allowing nature to take its course and fix the problem. \n\nNatural beekeeping does take some nerve. Watching a hive die is not fun. I admit to attempting to save a hive by adding a frame of young brood from a good productive hive in hopes that the genetic traits in the eggs will be spread to the rest of the hive through Supersedure. \n\n

Hi #steemit. Today i want to tell you about how make a hive for bees with your hands.

\n

I will talk about the VARRE#hive. This technique is the manufacture of beehives are very popular among the beekeepers.

\n

\n

The design and features of the hive

\n\n

Housing

\n

The case is in the form of an ordinary box, accommodates 8 tickers. The distance between each of them about 12 mm. Shell, be careful to board at the junctions was connected directly.

\n

Bars size of 300 * 20 * 20mm need to glue and fix with 3 nails. The upper edge of the handle should mow it helps water to drain freely in the rain weather.

\n

Advantages hive Varre

\n\n

Populations of bees in the hive Varre

\n

Beekeepers - a novice is better to populate the bees in the hive Varre swarm. But if the swarm is difficult to get, then I offer to settle the bees in this hive follows.

\n


\n

When will the bee season, buy a couple of bee colonies with hives (eg Dadant hives). Bring a hive to his apiary and wait until the bees start to swarm (swarm of bees). First released swarm necessary to capture and besiege the hive Varre. But the second swarm can catch and the place of the old hive Dadant put Varre evidence. And after all the bees move into a new house.

\n

This method forces experienced by beekeepers and novices better to take a swarm of bees to populate.

So, What is a swarm of #bees?

\n

Swarming of bees is when the parent family is forced to split into two almost equal parts. At a time when the first part will remain in the same habitat, second (with old or young bee queen) will hit the road to search for a new residence. 

\n

About this reproduction is a lot of debate among scholars and practitioners #beekeepers.

\n

\n

How to put a swarm in the hive?

\n

In my opinion, the most effective planting bees by using the gangway. Gangway for Swarming are a sheet of plywood or fiberboard, one end of which is tapered to 20 cm with the narrow end Gangways are placed on the arrivals Board.

\n

The longitudinal and the underside of the plywood edge slats. Unlike violent landing directly on frame in hive with a swarm of bees settled gangway self-propelled. Bees naturally go through the notches. Beautiful come, together, without crowding, injury and anger bees. To monitor this process very interesting. Landing a swarm in a hive with staircases, we can say, gentle way.

\n

http://pchelovod-ya.at.ua/_ph/2/770969534.jpg

\n

The beekeeper, as it invites and does not force the bees to occupy a well-appointed nest.

\n

The work planted by this method, the swarm starts the next morning. After landing a swarm in a new hive has no one bee will not return to the old hive. If this is an early swarm, he manages to gain strength to the main trick.

\n

#Swarm activity due to the fact that the first time the bees are too busy rearing brood and they are dominated by the instinct of accumulation of feed. 

\n

On second plan is being pushed equally important is the instinct of procreation. Sometimes the bees fill the cells so that the bee queen there is no place even to lay eggs.

\n

The main task of the beekeeper in the summer \u2013 not only to increase the strength of bee colonies, but also to keep them in working condition.

\n

Thank you for your attention!

These engineers, while capable of scientific/technological feats that we cannot match today also seemed to believe in some stupid/crazy/fantastical nonsense that either we have completely taken out of context, misinterpreted, COULD have possibly existed in some form, it could have been done to mislead the uneducated, propaganda, OR they could have just actually been crazy...\n\nI have a very difficult time believing that the people that created geometry, chemistry, and mastered engineering believed that some \"magic dude in the sky\" used his magic powers to \"turn planets\", or \"create stars\", as they seemed very intent on understanding anything they possibly could, so to attribute some things to \"gods\" because they \"couldn't explain them\", when the gods seemed to have VERY specific directions or clear interactions when it happened, it's not a consistent argument. Especially when you have things like the identification of Sirius B thousands of years before telescopes capable of seeing it would have been invented.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogon_people\nhttp://arcturi.com/AncientAliens/DogonPeopleAndAliens.html\n\nWhile I don't ascribe to the ancient alien theory, there might be a biological explanation as to why people used to believe in \"supernatural/superhuman\" beings.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bee_hives\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_Hive\n\nhttp://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t5/tabalitigi/neo2.jpg\n\nIn the natural world, we have bee hives, ant colonies, and many other \"hive minded\" species. This entails a \"collective consciousness\" so to speak, and in turn, it would mean that there is likely little ego, or \"individuals\" within the colony. I believe that at some point, humans existed in a \"hive mind\" state, and the collective consciousness would have naturally preceded the formation of the \"individual\".\n\nWhat this would imply, is that during the evolution of humans, if at some point in time, we were all tapped into a \"collective consciousness\", there would be NO NEED for written language, no NEED for written history traditions, and NO NEED for an economic system, as the information and resources had not yet reached a point that exceeded the \"collective consciousness's\" capacity to either process information, or distribute available resources.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homer\n\n\"The formative influence played by the Homeric epics in shaping Greek culture was widely recognized, and Homer was described as the teacher of Greece.[3] Homer's works, which are about fifty percent speeches, provided models in persuasive speaking and writing that were emulated throughout the ancient and medieval Greek worlds. Fragments of Homer account for nearly half of all identifiable Greek literary papyrus finds.[4]\"\n\nIf you are not familiar with \"Homer\" he is often misattributed as the \"writer\" of the Iliad and the Odyssey, when he was just supposedly the person who \"wrote them down\"...You have epics like the iliad and the odyssey being committed to memory by ONE person who is just ONE teacher amongst many scholars. I believe when you see THIS period of transition into \"writing\" things down, it's not because they reached the \"pinnacle\" of society necessarily, but they were breaking the processing limits of the collective consciousness, so it was necessary to begin using more methods of \"collecting information\" to record \"the important things\"...\nIf we use the \"computer\" as a metaphor for the collective consciousness since the computer was modeled after the brain, we can assume that the collective consciousness will hit a \"processing limit\". In computing, when we hit a processing limit, the solution is usually to take two equally fast processors, and divide the work load. This would be tantamount to a \"split\" in the collective consciousness: the formation of \"individuals\" able to process information outside of the \"processing limit\" of the \"collective consciousness\"...\n\nIt would be like an \"intranet\" vs. an \"Internet\"...\n\nthe collective conscious=Internet, and the individual = intranet...\n\nboth can be linked to each other, but the \"intranet\" has been \"disconnected\" from the \"Internet\" so it's functionally a \"private network\" at this point...\n\nNow, if this were the case, the \"hardware\" for the Internet, or collective consciousness would be \"vestigial brain tissue\" in SOME people but OTHER people might still be able to \"hack\" the Internet, and access the \"collective consciousness\", making them appear to have \"supernatural or godlike\" abilities. This is when you hear lore like that of \"alexander the great\" being able to stand on the shoulders of two of his men, and all three of them function as one warrior in battle...\n\nhttp://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t5/tabalitigi/smith2.jpg\n\nAlso, the idea of \"god kings\" or \"divine pharoahs\" where people completely devoted their lives and existence to one person, much like an ant colony or bee hive, and were able to accomplish things that a force under duress has NEVER been able to match. The reason I believe that there MIGHT have been some sort of different capacity of processing information is that you have these people who built the pyramids with VERY few people, VERY few resources, and didn't need to leave very much instruction on HOW to do it, for whatever reason.\n\nThey OBVIOUSLY weren't stupid, and although by this point they had definitely started keeping records, and were writing things down, they didn't much feel the need to record EVERY detail...I don't see these people being \"lazy\", or \"lax\" about their decision making, and on top of that, the idea that the \"information\" that this culture had amassed was SO dangerous that the religion that came to DOMINATE the world for the next 1200 years needed to completely wipe it off the face of the earth to rule the masses makes me think the christian church found something a long time ago that would explain why there are pyramids ALL over the planet, and whatever they found was something that allowed them to \"make everyone forget\"...\n\nI thought this might explain why we are moving TOWARDS a collective consciousness to a degree in the \"Internet\", as it's possible our neural network might be wired to \"be plugged in\"...\n\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collective_consciousness\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abilene_paradox\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groupthink\n\nhttp://farm7.static.flickr.com/6172/6138348999_f8bba5c918_m.jpg", - "category": "revolution", - "children": 3, - "created": "2016-07-15T14:38:48", + "body": "\n

Part 1 Dreaming Dreams Where Others Wouldn't Dare

\n

At one point or another in our lives we've likely been asked some variation of the question \"what are your dreams?\" For most people they have elected to become part of a subconsciousness hive mind wherein they all share the same basic dreams. A lot of these dreams revolve around simple things such as fame and riches. And while supporting a variance of individualistic manifestations covering a broad range of applications the construct of the subconscious hive mind is still by and large the same throughout. The desire for prominence and wealth is preeminent and promulgated by the inherent herd mentality of the subconscious hive mind construct.

\n

\n

Granted, the appeal of these things is obvious, especially when dealing with hive mind and herd mentalities. Fame is synonymous with recognition and the more recognizable you are to more people the more influence you have over the collective subconscious. However, it should be noted that this influence can work for or against the wielder of fame. Fortune and wealth grants similar (albeit more subtle and powerful) influence and control over the minds of the masses. So what really does the individual and collective mind alike yearn for if the two most prominent dreams and desires essentially reduce down to having more power? Well, that's the answer. The mind (both collective and individual) craves power at its core.

\n

Going Where Others Fear To Tread

\n

We live in an age of interconnectedness and continuously emerging disruptive technologies. We've come a long way from following herds on the open plains. Or have we? In this digital age are not content creators such as myself essentially tracking the patterns and movements of the herd in order to best benefit from the resources that the herd provides? How am I any different from my often so call primitive ancestors? If anything, I'm worse off. Whereas my ancestors only needed to pick off a couple stragglers here and there to provide for themselves I am playing a different numbers game where I am attempting to get as many of the herd as possible. I've evolved from hunter gatherer to wild west rustler and rancher.

\n

\n

So what does it really mean to tread where others fear? I'm certainly not treading anywhere that others aren't willing to tread by posting here on Steemit. I'm just like thousands, if not millions, of others all vying for the same attention from the same pool of people. The level of uncertainty when concerning success certainly isn't any greater or much less than what was experienced by our hunter gatherer progenitors. So again, where's the dream? If you'll bear with me I'm laying the ground work as fast as I can to drive home the point I'm hoping to get across.

\n

Running the Risk of Alienation

\n

What it comes down to in this day and age (and even in past ages) is the risk of alienation. In order to successfully branch out into new territory you must run the risk of alienating the rest of the herd. This however is self-defeating if your livelihood effectively depends on your overall level of acceptance with the hive mind. Is there anyway to alienate yourself and at the same time draw in a mass core of followers? This formula tends to only work well with shock rockers and not so well for the blogging crowd.

\n

\n

History has taught us that to challenge the zeitgeist is to often resign oneself to complete and total rejection. Sometimes this is as passive as ridicule and shame (which in some societies can prove to be harmful if not in some extreme cases fatal) and others it goes as far as imprisonment or death. And yet many of the greatest innovations that we today tend to take for granted come from those who were overtly ostracized and even persecuted for the challenging new ideas that they brought forth. Is this to mean that we are to forever remain subservient to the whims of the crowd? Must we really pander to the lowest common denominator?

\n

Creating a Mutually Beneficial Relationship

\n

I do not believe that we are forever doomed to feed into the consumer mentality in order to sustain ourselves through group economics. Platforms like Steemit more than support this belief. It allows me the freedom and comfort to produce content that while disruptive in nature is inviting and insightful. Never before has a platform appealed to me the way that Steemit does. And it goes beyond the obvious mass appeal of being paid for creating and upvoting content. I truly feel invited to share my thoughts on this platform.

\n

Fortunately enough for me Steemit has already created a mutually beneficial relationship whereby I can bypass the essential disruptive and alienating nature that I have found my thoughts and content often displays. I know there are plenty of people out there who would vibe with my prose and my mode of thinking but the challenge is that people who think like me are often so preoccupied with our own thoughts that we have little to no incentive to build a reliable community.

\n

I would call this something of a lone wolf complex wherein we who are inherently and instinctively predisposed to challenge the status quo often do so to our own isolation and detriment. We would be stronger together and yet we cannot overcome our cynicism and our own apathetic lethargy to form a cohesive bond by which to overthrow the power systems which threaten to drive the herd off a cliff.

\n

A Hive Mind of Free Thinking Rebels

\n

Yet I dare to dream of a coalition of free thinking rebels and lone wolves who are able to for a time work together a common and mutually beneficial goal. But finally I know I am not alone in this dream and there is light in the darkness and the dream is looking to become a reality for the first time in my life. Yes, my dream much like Steemit is still in its infancy but as I have chosen this as the platform for my dream I am wholly committed to nurturing both this dream and this groundbreaking platform.

\n

As I have no following established on any other social media platform for the aforementioned reasons I am attempting to create from the ground up my entire following here on Steemit. I simply don't feel comfortable on any other platform and that's the honest truth of it.

Hi steemit! I want to tell you about production of #frames for the hive with your hands! i'll tell you the correct dimensions to create it.

By itself, the manufacturing process is simple. To do at home frame for beehives, you will need a bit of dry strips (it is better to use lime, pine and other hardwoods), thin wire and Shoe nails. From tools, use the common pliers, an awl and a hammer. tool for making remolds that would have an idea on how to make frames for the bees, you need to understand what forms are used and main dimensions. It is the shape and size of the frame affect the activity of the bee colony, and the space between them, the width of streets and the installation of the framework contribute to the productivity of bees, their intensity.

The size of frames for the #hive

\n

The size of frames for the hive to determine the productivity of the entire apiary, serviceability bees, therefore, specially developed standards, which should adhere to when making the design. The idea of unification of fundamental sizes of hives, caused by the invention of the hive. The basics of beekeeping to date give a clear idea about the courses of the optimal size.

\n

The famous Russian theorist and practitioner P. I. Prokopovich has proven the success of using home-made framework, their effectiveness and necessity. Established almost 100 years ago the standards for the framework and today, continue to be the benchmark.

\n

In beekeeping today are widely used frame Dagana-Blatt, the size of which is 435x300mm. No less popular is the frame Langstroth-Ruta, which is slightly smaller in width 435 x 230 mm. Store frame has dimensions of 435 x 145 mm. At present enjoys great popularity, the invention of domestic beekeepers, the so-called Ukrainian frame, dimensions 300 x 435 mm .

\n

Used today in the bee fisheries framework for hives differ not only in their size, but also different ways of fastening, fixing honeycombs. The manufacture of frames for beehives require the #beekeeper patience and diligence. In order to expedite Assembly and facilitate the work of the beekeeper, you can use the template to build the framework.

Thank you!

The honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies have decreased by 25% over the 20 in Europe and 59% in 60 years in North America. In these parts, many bumblebee populations have become locally extinct. The loss of bee hives costs beekeepers an estimated $2 billion in the United States while bees are responsible for pollinating $200 billion dollars\u2019 worth of food products. Bees are also responsible for pollinating over 70% of the food we find in supermarkets. Foods such as: nuts, fruits and vegetables are dependent on the pollination of the honey bee. The meat industry would also be affected as the feed given to livestock relies bees too. \nOur existence depends on the honey bee. Without the pollination of plants and trees from honey bees our food choice would be severely limited. While there are a few reasons as to why the honey bee is in decline, many sources blame climate change, this article will identify some of the main causes for why the honey bee is declining and what can be done about it. \n\nPesticides\nMuch of the declining numbers of bees and other wild pollinators is occurring in north western Europe and North America. This is due to pesticides. In fact, the use of pesticides plays the largest role in the decline of bee population. Studies from Harvard University showed that when bees were exposed to two neonicotinoids it would lead to half of the bee hives being studied dying. The control group in the experiment which was not exposed to neonicotinoids remained healthy with none of the hives dying off. Neonicotinoids are the most widely used class of insecticides making their use even more devastating to bee populations. \nBy buying organic produce you can, not only eliminate reduce the amount of insecticides and pesticides you ingest through the food you eat but you will also be encouraging farmers to stop treating their crops with insecticides. \n\nVarroa mite \nThe varroa mite is a small red mite which attaches itself to honey bees. It sucks their blood and it some cases it can spread a disease called varroosis. This mite can only reproduce in honey bee colonies. A significant varroa mite infestation will lead to the death of the entire bee colony. This pest has been attributed to colony collapse disorder in bees. \n\nPlant diversity\nMost of the honey that you will find in your super market is produced by beekeepers with a large number of hives. These beekeepers will work with farmers and people who work in the field of agriculture. Plants which have been pollinated by bees produce a larger yield when they have been pollinated therefore food producers are only too happy to have bee hives on their land. However, the farmers tend to specialise and produce few kinds of foods. A farmer may only grow strawberries or he may only produce almonds. As a result, the bees who are pollinating the farmer\u2019s land are restricted to one main source of nectar an pollen. Bees do not fly further than a range of 3km from their hive. On a large farm they are almost forced to pollinate one type of plant. \nThis means that they do not get much diversity of pollen and nectar in their hive. This is comparable to humans only eating one kind of food. We need a varied diet to be healthy. The same goes for bees. Farmers and beekeepers in Europe have had success in reducing the number hive losses by have a piece of land on the farm which is dedicated to wild flower and giving the bees an alternative source of nectar and pollen. \n\nWifi signals\nStudies have shown that phone signals can have an effect on bees. When mobile phones were placed in or near a bee hive and the phone received a call or made a call it resulted in the bees creating 10 times more noise than they normally would. This increase in noise is a signal used by the bees to communicate that they should leave the hive. When the bees created this noise as a result of the mobile phone signals and left the hive they would fly erratically as they were confused and disorientated.", + "category": "life", + "children": 14, + "created": "2016-08-15T11:39:36", + "curator_payout_value": "84.278 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": true, + "json_metadata": { + "image": [ + "https://i.imgsafe.org/1a9b4720a0.jpeg" + ], + "tags": [ + "life", + "food", + "gardening", + "science", + "topnews" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 43410741814387, + "payout": 338.017, + "payout_at": "2016-09-15T00:50:36", + "pending_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "why-are-the-bees-dying-top-reasons-for-the-decline-of-the-honey-bee", + "post_id": 815302, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 74 + }, + "title": "Why are the bees dying?

is something like a wooden hotel for bees. \nHuman is not only the one creatures who need a habitation. There\u2019re well-furnished hotels for pets everywhere. They started to appear in a great amount the last few years. People reasoned that bees aren\u2019t worse. Moreover, they\u2019re very useful and make honey despite of the fact that they\u2019re not the members of family like pats in the most cases. In this way, people started to build hotels for bees.\n\nHow leaf cutter bees hive looks like?\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/xmKCyIB.jpg)\nImage Source\n\n![](https://i.imgur.com/AyNg16s.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nIt looks very differently. Some of them are one tier and multistory; some of them are a like a real houses with many tiers and multistory too. Every \u00abapartment\u00bb is differ from another one a lot. Some of holes are small, some of them are big; they have different sizes, structure and form. You can see the pictures of some leaf cutter bees hives calls \u00abwooden bees\u2019 hotels\u00bb below.\nOf course, the bees\u2019 hotel can\u2019t even compare with a real hotel for people. It\u2019s not that important for bees if the conditions are comfortable or not. The most important in this \u00abbuilding\u00bb for bees are holes where they can put off the larvae. \nFor \u00abhotel\u00bb like that is very good, more precisely, perfect to have complete \u00abnumbers\u00bb. For bees that\u2019s not important from what material they are done. The most important when you choose the material is to choose something that won\u2019t be harmful for bees. The most common materials are hollow bamboo or wooden sticks. \n\nHow to build the hotel for bees?\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/fKH1c1N.jpg)\nImage Source\n\n1.\tThe most important is to prepare a rectangular frame; it\u2019s a foundation for future hotel. To do this, connect four wooden planks. The optimal deep of a frame is approximately 10 cm. \n2.\tThen you should choose the hollow rods. It\u2019s desirable to find materials of different diameter from 2 and even to 10 mm. It\u2019s important to keep track of the rods because the walls inside tubes must be smooth not to harm the insects. \n3.\tSticks are trimming for deep of frame. After that, you should just carefully fill by them all free space. \n4.\tAfter all of that, you should choose the place for your hotel for bees. The sunlight should light the constriction the most part of the day. Moreover, it must be the direct sunlight. You also should ensure that the hotel for bees won\u2019t become wet in the rainy days because if it is like that, all the bees will leave the hotel very soon. You should hang or place your hotel on a one meter height. What\u2019s more, that\u2019s a minimum. Don\u2019t forget to get rid of excess vegetation which can block the access to insects in their home. \n\n\nFor what kind of bees these hotels are attractive and why?\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/BAh0jtF.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nThe number of bees is reduced sharply in recent years. Pesticides destroy a huge number of these beneficial insects. Moreover, not just pesticides do this dirty work. \nThe hotels like that attract the bees on the areas. However, the most of the bees who aspire into these hotels are lonely bees, the bees who doesn\u2019t have their own family. They can\u2019t just come to a big unknown family and ask to take them into their hive. It\u2019s like in the cities or even towns: people can\u2019t come to unknown family or even to rivals for a very long time and ask to take them forever. They try to find an apartment or a room where everyone is like them: without a big \u00abfamily\u00bb and trying to make his own one. Bees are social insects, they can\u2019t live in the whole loneliness, so it\u2019s not a good way for them to fins an apartment. They will just die in the loneliness. They should have their hive, their family. In this way, many lonely bees are going to the hotels like that to make their own new family. \n\nWhat\u2019s the benefits of these bees\u2019 hotels?\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/vPn6u4n.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nBy building leaf cutter bees or bees\u2019 hotels, how they are called, you kill two birds with one stone. Firstly, it\u2019s a benefit for you and, secondly, you help our ecology a little bit. As it was told above, the number of bees is reduced sharply in recent years because many other creatures kill bees. Moreover, people often watered their fields with chemicals which are deadly not just for insects which people want to kill but for bees too. \nIt\u2019s a real ecological help because after any kind of catastrophe, for example, there are lonely bees who try to find a family. They are going to these hotels. It\u2019s a real help for insects if the hotel is built in the right way. \nAdding to that, it\u2019s a great benefit for you. Bees are very useful insects. Firstly, they make really great and healthy honey. Moreover, bees are useful not just because of their honey. Anyway, having a bees\u2019 hotel on your green area is a great benefit. \n\n###

Hi steemit! I want to tell you about production of #frames for the hive with your hands! i'll tell you the correct dimensions to create it.

\n

\n

By itself, the manufacturing process is simple. To do at home frame for beehives, you will need a bit of dry strips (it is better to use lime, pine and other hardwoods), thin wire and Shoe nails. From tools, use the common pliers, an awl and a hammer. tool for making remolds that would have an idea on how to make frames for the bees, you need to understand what forms are used and main dimensions. It is the shape and size of the frame affect the activity of the bee colony, and the space between them, the width of streets and the installation of the framework contribute to the productivity of bees, their intensity.

The size of frames for the #hive

\n

The size of frames for the hive to determine the productivity of the entire apiary, serviceability bees, therefore, specially developed standards, which should adhere to when making the design. The idea of unification of fundamental sizes of hives, caused by the invention of the hive. The basics of beekeeping to date give a clear idea about the courses of the optimal size.

\n

\n

\n

The famous Russian theorist and practitioner P. I. Prokopovich has proven the success of using home-made framework, their effectiveness and necessity. Established almost 100 years ago the standards for the framework and today, continue to be the benchmark.

\n

In beekeeping today are widely used frame Dagana-Blatt, the size of which is 435x300mm. No less popular is the frame Langstroth-Ruta, which is slightly smaller in width 435 x 230 mm. Store frame has dimensions of 435 x 145 mm. At present enjoys great popularity, the invention of domestic beekeepers, the so-called Ukrainian frame, dimensions 300 x 435 mm .

\n

Used today in the bee fisheries framework for hives differ not only in their size, but also different ways of fastening, fixing honeycombs. The manufacture of frames for beehives require the #beekeeper patience and diligence. In order to expedite Assembly and facilitate the work of the beekeeper, you can use the template to build the framework.

Thank you!

  • Quality of the comb is greatly enhanced when a frame with honeycombs put between the honeycombs with open brood. Honeycomb build good quality cuttings with young Queens. After the bees of the nucleus will pull the cell across the square honeycomb, these palustrine frame transmit strong families for completion and mastery, and cuttings put in a new one with the honeycombs.

  • The liquid part of the honey bees usually suck, and the crystals thrown on the floor or carried out of the hive. To get the bees to use crystallized honey, it should spray into the cells with it warm water, repeating this until the full use of the crystals.

  • Eating a mixture of pollen of different species of plants, bees are grown more brood than the feeding on the pollen of the same species. This may explain the eagerness of the bees to have a hive with a mixture of pollen of different plants.

    \n
  • Pleuromutilin should be included only at the time of the spring season, when the bees in large numbers bring pylorus plants. Experiments showed that using pollen traps is only 40 bring pollen. When pollen prinos her #bees increases. With the onset of a significant bribe pleuromutilin should be switched off. Four-year experiments of the Institute of apiculture has shown that family can get 2-3 kg of dried pollen without prejudice to brood growth and the allocation of wax.

\n
    \n
  • For delivery of water to the hive bees spend a lot of energy and time. To bring a liter of water, they need to make at least 17,000 flights. Therefore in the spring it is necessary to supply the bees clean warm water. It will protect from destruction and premature wear many bees. Water (0.5 l) can be given in the cells of one of the outer combs to pour a thin stream to penetrate into cells. Early spring in the water you can add 0,8 salt. Bees willingly take it and use it for honey liquefaction and other needs.

  • Print #honey comb is quite labor \u2014 intensive operation, time consuming, and together with signet removes a portion of the honey, reduced the volume disturbed the surface of the comb. Use the dryer to dry your hair or air heater having a spiral and a fan, these disadvantages are eliminated. A jet of warm air directed onto the surface of a honeycomb. The wax caps are melted and fold. Because the frame is filled with honey, which has a large heat capacity, the walls of the cells do not have time to warm up and are not damaged. Treating with dryer both sides, honeycomb is placed in a honey extractor. After extraction of honey frames can be put in the form of pale malt or return to the hive; preferably at the same place as the configuration of the honeycomb is preserved.

  • Bees are not only capable of high stability to adjust the temperature of the nest, but also to aerate it. To do this, they flap their wings. The frequency of strokes and the number of individuals participating, increases with increasing concentration of carbon dioxide. In the same way the bees react to the overheating of the nest. In hot weather, when delivered in the beehive of a large amount of nectar during the hours bees ventilators provide a more than hundred-fold air exchange. To reduce energy costs to the bees on the job, you should open ledovye vents and ventilation Windows of the hives.

Fascinating visuals broadcast through my mind like an IMAX presentation when I close my eyes and put my headphones on. I'd like to give you a glimpse into what I see, so feel free to listen along as I present the stories I've found while listening to some of my favorite tracks. \n\nToday's track: *Strife II - How Do I (Maduk Remix)*\n\n# 002 - Welcome to the Steemit Hivemind\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1s0bW3GIlY\n\nA kaleidoscope of color washed over my mind as I was integrated into the Steemit hivemind. As reality stabilized around me, I found myself welcomed by a dozen friendly faces, all eager to greet me, like I was a long-lost friend returning after being separated for decades. The spatial reality construct before me was clean and futuristic, with just a hint of the stylistic embellishments that I recognized from my childhood, before the hives appeared. I was lost in the amount of dancing, cheering, and smiling I saw in the crowd. Everywhere I saw people sculpting, writing, and showing their real faces. No one was using a holo-avatar saved from their best smile of the week. Everyone here looked very natural, which in itself was unusual.\n\nI was no stranger to being in a hive mind, a collective group of thousands or millions of minds all plugged in to the same digital reality. After the first couple of times it becomes just like any other adventure, and one is free to traverse between them given enough time and social status. Generally, those who couldn't pay could donate a portion of their own brain's processing power to keep the simulation going, and many did. In the last few years though, questions began to swirl through the dominant hives as to just how much brainpower they were taking from those in the simulation, and many saw diminishing returns on their investments, which started to shake the foundations of the larger hives. People were getting tired of being absorbed in a reality that promised the world but delivered nothing. The masses grew tired and restless, searching for validation of their own personal realities amidst the crowds of fake personalities and the bland landscapes delivered by the hive's steady distancing from stable and creative realities to more advertisment-heavy cityscapes made of copy-and-pasted code stripped from the stretches of the net, code we'd all seen before and were unimpressed by.\n\nI wasn't the first of my group to leave, but I was already growing tired of my current hive, casually spending more time away from it than plugged in, when a good friend of mine, a trusted photographer and uniquely creative individual started ranting and raving about a hive that would pay you not just for your processing power, but just for showing your personality. They'd pay you for watching others and being the first to identify a particularly nice holo-field, artistic ability, or just a caring stranger willing to help those in need. Not only that, but they'd pay the creator of said art, inspiration, or story, all for just being a part of it, and helping it grow into something beautiful.\n\nNaturally I questioned him, aware of promising schemes where guarantees of plugging in would net you great rewards, just to have your mind slagged and your bank account ruined. I didn't particularly like the feeling of having to pay off the debt of a neuro-wipe at the hospital, and it had been a while since I performed a backup anyway, being barely a middle-class citizen myself. He swore up and down that he just made his first major deposit, that it wasn't fake, and continued with the semantics of the cube-chain and decentralized currencies. The conversation blurred somewhat over the advertisements of a nearby coffee shop coming in over my sub-vocal receiver, but I got the gist of it.\n\nThat evening I took off from the office early, headed home, and sat down in my den. I punched in the coordinates of the Steemit hive mind, and waited as the scanners in my room synchronized to my current frequency. I knew I'd never be the same as soon as a kaleidoscope of color washed over my mind, and I finally felt at home.", + "category": "writing", + "children": 4, + "created": "2016-08-09T01:30:27", + "curator_payout_value": "0.004 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": true, + "json_metadata": { + "links": [ + "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1s0bW3GIlY" + ], + "tags": [ + "writing", + "fiction", + "steemit", + "sci-fi", + "music" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 47557361815, + "payout": 0.028, + "payout_at": "2016-09-08T14:11:33", + "pending_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "storytrax-the-adventures-i-see-in-music-002-steemit-hivemind", + "post_id": 694765, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 8 + }, + "title": "StoryTrax -

There\u2019re well-furnished hotels for pets everywhere. They started to appear in a great amount the last few years. People reasoned that bees aren\u2019t worse. Moreover, they\u2019re very useful and make honey despite of the fact that they\u2019re not the members of family like pats in the most cases. In this way, people started to build hotels for bees.\n\nHow leaf cutter bees hive looks like?\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/xmKCyIB.jpg)\nImage Source\n\n![](https://i.imgur.com/AyNg16s.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nIt looks very differently. Some of them are one tier and multistory; some of them are a like a real houses with many tiers and multistory too. Every \u00abapartment\u00bb is differ from another one a lot. Some of holes are small, some of them are big; they have different sizes, structure and form. You can see the pictures of some leaf cutter bees hives calls \u00abwooden bees\u2019 hotels\u00bb below.\nOf course, the bees\u2019 hotel can\u2019t even compare with a real hotel for people. It\u2019s not that important for bees if the conditions are comfortable or not. The most important in this \u00abbuilding\u00bb for bees are holes where they can put off the larvae. \nFor \u00abhotel\u00bb like that is very good, more precisely, perfect to have complete \u00abnumbers\u00bb. For bees that\u2019s not important from what material they are done. The most important when you choose the material is to choose something that won\u2019t be harmful for bees. The most common materials are hollow bamboo or wooden sticks. \n\nHow to build the hotel for bees?\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/fKH1c1N.jpg)\nImage Source\n\n1.\tThe most important is to prepare a rectangular frame; it\u2019s a foundation for future hotel. To do this, connect four wooden planks. The optimal deep of a frame is approximately 10 cm. \n2.\tThen you should choose the hollow rods. It\u2019s desirable to find materials of different diameter from 2 and even to 10 mm. It\u2019s important to keep track of the rods because the walls inside tubes must be smooth not to harm the insects. \n3.\tSticks are trimming for deep of frame. After that, you should just carefully fill by them all free space. \n4.\tAfter all of that, you should choose the place for your hotel for bees. The sunlight should light the constriction the most part of the day. Moreover, it must be the direct sunlight. You also should ensure that the hotel for bees won\u2019t become wet in the rainy days because if it is like that, all the bees will leave the hotel very soon. You should hang or place your hotel on a one meter height. What\u2019s more, that\u2019s a minimum. Don\u2019t forget to get rid of excess vegetation which can block the access to insects in their home. \n\n\nFor what kind of bees these hotels are attractive and why?\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/BAh0jtF.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nThe number of bees is reduced sharply in recent years. Pesticides destroy a huge number of these beneficial insects. Moreover, not just pesticides do this dirty work. \nThe hotels like that attract the bees on the areas. However, the most of the bees who aspire into these hotels are lonely bees, the bees who doesn\u2019t have their own family. They can\u2019t just come to a big unknown family and ask to take them into their hive. It\u2019s like in the cities or even towns: people can\u2019t come to unknown family or even to rivals for a very long time and ask to take them forever. They try to find an apartment or a room where everyone is like them: without a big \u00abfamily\u00bb and trying to make his own one. Bees are social insects, they can\u2019t live in the whole loneliness, so it\u2019s not a good way for them to fins an apartment. They will just die in the loneliness. They should have their hive, their family. In this way, many lonely bees are going to the hotels like that to make their own new family. \n\nWhat\u2019s the benefits of these bees\u2019 hotels?\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/vPn6u4n.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nBy building leaf cutter bees or bees\u2019 hotels, how they are called, you kill two birds with one stone. Firstly, it\u2019s a benefit for you and, secondly, you help our ecology a little bit. As it was told above, the number of bees is reduced sharply in recent years because many other creatures kill bees. Moreover, people often watered their fields with chemicals which are deadly not just for insects which people want to kill but for bees too. \nIt\u2019s a real ecological help because after any kind of catastrophe, for example, there are lonely bees who try to find a family. They are going to these hotels. It\u2019s a real help for insects if the hotel is built in the right way. \nAdding to that, it\u2019s a great benefit for you. Bees are very useful insects. Firstly, they make really great and healthy honey. Moreover, bees are useful not just because of their honey. Anyway, having a bees\u2019 hotel on your green area is a great benefit. \n\n###

 I'd like to share a recent project that I'm working on with the Steemit community. I think the Voluntaryist/Anarchist in the scene will find it interesting and useful. 

\n


\n

Find this original article on my site and be sure to subscribe to my blog if you're in the local area of Salt Lake City, Utah: Salt Lake Freedom Hive.

\n


\n

The Salt Lake Freedom Hive is a local community support network built to provide education and support for engaging in the real world solutions of Voluntaryism, Agorism, Personal and Community Gardening, Permaculture, Home Schooling/Unschooling, Peaceful Parenting and respecting the Non-Aggression Principle.

\n


\n

I've perceived a need for an action oriented community in the local area of Salt Lake City, Utah. One in which people can come to find solutions that can be incorporated into their lives and they can then participate in the learning, integrating, and teaching processes that we all have to offer depending at what stage we are at in moving toward more personal freedom in our lives and the lives of our friends and family.

\n


\n

The solutions to the the problems we all face in this world are not always easy to recognize, but they are out there. Most of us are heavily manipulated since birth, and the indoctrination of Statism, authoritarian models, Social Darwinism, Moral Relativism and a society which is continuously traumatized through fear based propaganda. These factors are all obfuscating the real issues. Unfortunately, those who seek to plunder human power, productivity, and the amazing creative force that each of us holds are working around the clock on the systems set up to enslave all of us and all future generations.

\n

\"There is no proper role for tyranny in the lives of people. As soon as you yield to the forces of compulsion in the name of life, you have lost your life, for it belongs to those who control you. Life is liberty. Without liberty, your life belongs to another. Liberty is to be defended at all costs and at all times.\"

\n

\n


\n

Those who have foregone ignorance of the negative conditions that we face, in an effort to ultimately better themselves and rise in consciousness, are empowered to make a decision to act on the knowledge they have gained. This action on knowledge gained is true wisdom. Action based on what one knows is true. To know and not to act is really not to know and not to care.

\n


\n

We can no longer ignore the enslaving forces within our systems of society, as well as the enslaving forces within each individual which cause them to bring about these conditions. The conditions which absolutely oppose liberty, freedom, and truth.

\n


\n

The Salt Lake Freedom Hive is a grassroots community built to spread and integrate the message of Freedom. Launched to network with individuals that are looking for a way to actively participate in building a community of like minded people who are establishing the foundations of freedom for themselves and working on spreading the message to others.

\n


\n

The information provided here will assist in raising consciousness by bringing awareness to the concepts which support a Free Society. One based in respecting the non-aggression principle and voluntary interactions between people. These concepts are directly opposed to the current condition, Statism.

\n


\n

In order to bring about the conditions of a free society, we have to break down the old paradigm of Statism (violence and slavery), and embrace a world of real freedom and prosperity. This can be difficult for someone who does not even understand that the current condition of Statism is violence and slavery. Healing this worldview is something that ultimately has to start from the individual. The spark of true care has to be born within that individual in order for them to start the process of breaking down fear, and moving into love.

\n


\n

Many people feel overwhelmed when they begin to lift the vale that has been pulled over their eyes. This blindness is kept in place not only by our own fear and ignorance, but firmly fitted and tied initially through an onslaught of indoctrination, lies, coercion, propaganda, and manipulation.

\u201cThere are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.\u201d

\n

~ S\u00f8ren Kierkegaard

\n


\n

There are ways to operate in the world and organize communities that work to bring about conditions of freedom. Many things can be done personally, individually, without having to even work within a group or with other people whatsoever. However, working with others on the common goal of a free society is an integral part of establishing the new systems and building the foundations.

\n


\n

A list of solutions that I feel can be acted on in order to bring about grassroots solutions for real and positive change:

\n


\n
    \n
  • Positive Thinking
    • \n
  • Develop Mindfulness and True Present Moment Awareness
    • \n
  • Detach From The Monetary System
    • \n
  • A Positive Change in Diet
    • \n
  • Change the Quality of Attention
    • \n
  • Heal Worldview
    • \n
  • Help Others to Awaken
    • \n
  • Peaceful Parenting
    • \n
  • Practice and Promote Voluntary Interaction with Others
    • \n
  • Respect the Non-Aggression Principle
    • \n
\n


\n

One concept, among many, which can be utilized for learning about a free society based in voluntary interaction between people rather than once based on force and aggression is Agorism.

\n


\n

An article you can find posted to this site on the topic of Agorism, Agorism - Solution Oriented Action.

\n


\n

https://saltlakefreedomhive.files.wordpress.com/2016/07/agorism.png?w=540&h=282

\n


\n

Agorism comes from the Greek word \"agora,\" referring to an open place for assembly and market in ancient Greek city-states. The concept uses the mechanism of Counter-economics. The term Agorism was conceived by SEK3 and used to impart Libertarian philosophy in political terms.*emphasized text*

\n


\n

SEK3, or Samual Edward Konkin III, says about counter-economics that it is \"the study or practice of all peaceful human action which is forbidden by the State.\"

\n


\n

From a Pamplet put out by Konkin, Counter-Economics, we can find this excerpt:

\n


\n

*\"The Counter-Economy is the sum of all non-aggressive Human Action which is forbidden by the State. Counter-economics is the study of the Counter-Economy and its practices. The Counter-Economy includes the free market, the Black Market, the \u201cunderground economy,\u201d all acts of civil and social disobedience, all acts of forbidden association (sexual, racial, cross-religious), and anything else the State, at any place or time, chooses to prohibit, control, regulate, tax, or tariff. The Counter-Economy excludes all State-approved action (the \u201cWhite Market\u201d) and the Red Market (violence and theft not approved by the State).\"*

\n


\n

A counter economy with a basis in the non-aggression principle which has a goal of bringing about a free and voluntary society is basically the definition of Agorism.

\n


\n
    \n
  •  Peaceful Parenting
    • \n
\n


\n

Statism starts at home. Through practicing peaceful parenting we can immediately effect positive change by adapting a new value system and passing this new value system to the next generation. With the understanding that Statism directly opposes the Non-Aggression Principle (NAP), that it is not within someones right to initiate violence on others who do not consent. That the fundamental concept of Statism is inherently flawed. That no one can properly delegate a right that they do not have to someone else or a group of other people and make it a right. Basically, teaching our children the real difference between right and wrong, and practicing these realities ourselves as examples.

\n


\n

By respecting the NAP and giving that respect to our children, we are practicing the concept of Peaceful Parenting. This instills the principles of Self-Ownership and the basic difference between right and wrong at an early age, which children intuitively understand already.

\n


\n

However, it gives confusing mixed signals if we initiate violence on our children while also trying to teach them the difference between right and wrong. The child is confused by a parent who explains that it's not okay to hit, but then has a parent who hits them as a punishment. Peaceful parenting helps us use logic and reason with our child, and teach them how that process works. This concept falls directly in place with Voluntaryism and establishing a free society.

\n


\n

This does not mean that there are not rules, but rather that as parents, we are not \"rulers\" over our children. It is giving your child the respect that they own their own body, and no one can initiate aggression upon their property, this is always wrong.

\n


\n
    \n
  • Change Diet
    • \n
\n


\n

Along with peaceful parenting, a positive change in diet is something that we can still control. Luckily, we can still make decisions which benefit our health by using discernment in the foods we choose to eat, where the food comes from, how it got to the market, and what quality of nutrition the food contains. We can choose not to buy foods that are filled with toxic chemicals and avoid supporting companies that use unsustainable practices when producing the food.

\n


\n

For me personally, addressing my health and the quality of food and water I was consuming massively changed the way I felt and looked at the world and led to so many beautiful things in my life. I highly recommend anyone who has not addressed this area in their own lives, starts with a positive change in their diet and don't ever stop taking the best possible care of your body as possible. More to come on this topic in future content produced by the Salt Lake Freedom Hive.

\n


\n
    \n
  • Detach From Monetary System
    • \n
\n


\n

The use of the current monetary system, the Federal Reserve System, is something that each of us has a certain level of control over. One can spend time understanding how this monetary system works and quickly find that this is an immoral institution of human slavery that is among us and effecting each and every one of our lives very directly.

\n


\n

Fortunately, there are many things that we can start doing to detach from this current monetary system, and build completely new forms of exchange. Systems which adhere to the NAP, Voluntarysim, and a free society in which people refuse to participate in systems of coercion, theft, and violence.

\n


\n

\"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.\"

\n

~ Henry Ford

\n


\n

To begin addressing this problem, some may be able to pull there money out of big banks and use smaller credit unions, thus reducing the amount of funds the bigger banks have to operate. Others may choose to stay out or get out of debt and stop using debt as a means of purchasing things they may or may not even need. Some may choose to become active and spread information about the Federal Reserve to help awaken others to our condition. While others may start creating or use existing alternative currencies which are not within the control of the current banking cartel monopoly.

\n


\n

Cryptocurrencies, Decentralized Currencies, Community Currencies, are all currently existing models of alternative currencies that could be deployed through the practice of Agorism and truly start making a massive impact. We will discuss these concepts here at the Freedom Hive. I'm not saying that the alternative currencies I mentioned are the definitive solutions to the current condition. However, I feel they are a bridge which we can start using while new concepts are formed and developed.

\n

    \n
  • Practice and Promote Voluntary Interaction with Others.
    • \n
\n


\n

The purpose of creating the Salt Lake Freedom Hive is to practice and promote voluntary interactions with others. Again, it is important to remember that the reason why people are labeling themselves as \"Anarchist\", \"Voluntaryist\", \"Liberitarian\", \"Minarchist\" and so on is to definitively differentiate themselves from the stance held by the vast overwhelming majority of humanity, Statist.

\n


\n

Opposing Statism is not just an alternative view in the cesspool of \"Left vs Right\" politics. Voluntaryism and Statism are directly opposed.

\n


\n

The fundamental design of the Government is to operate using coercion with the threat and use of violence, forcing people to obey its commands. By creating rights that do not exist and cannot be believed into existence regardless of how many people hold the same belief, the State permits itself to use violence against peaceful people. When Governments violate the Non-Aggression Principle, it is still wrong. Governments are not magically exempt from this basic principle. You cannot properly delegate a right that you do not hold, the right to commit violence, to someone else or a group of other people called \"authority\" and somehow make it into a right.

\n

\n


\n


\n
    \n
  • Change the Quality of Attention
    • \n
\n


\n

Through changing the quality of our attention and developing true present moment awareness, we can strengthen the imagination for what kind of change is possible and bring this into physical manifestation.

\n


\n

When those who understand that they are truly sovereign beings align their thoughts, emotions, and actions, we can become powerful forces for positive change.

\n


\n

By standing in Natural Law principles, the inherent laws of the Universe which bind us, we can actually become truly free. It is through ignoring this information and living in fear that we cause harm and continue to bring suffering to ourselves and others.

\n


\n

\u201cThe liberty of man consists solely in this, that he obeys the laws of nature because he has himself recognized them as such, and not because they have been imposed upon him externally by any foreign will whatsoever, human or divine, collective or individual.\u201d

\n

  ~ Mikhail Bakunin

    \n
  • Help To Awaken Others
    • \n
\n


\n

When we've developed true care and start to embrace Truth, Love and Freedom in our lives we can use our actions to help awaken others. The Great Work is to recognize that the vast overwhelming majority of humanity is in a state of mental somnolence. That even if we've worked to awaken ourselves and free ourselves from mental and physical slavery, still most of the people around us have not started the process and are manifesting pain and suffering for all of us as a result of their ignorance.

\n


\n

People ultimately have to begin to care enough to change and to awaken. We cannot force them to start this process. However, once someone does start that process, we can be available to them with information and solutions. We can be an example by the way we live our lives to others who are beginning the journey to a life of true freedom.

\n


\n

This site will be used to bring together people, bring forward ideas, create tools, blaze pathways, and continue to put out the message of Freedom. I'm interested in making new connections, interviewing unique and inspiring guests and explore all the different possibilities available to us in this amazing time. I'm looking forward to going on this journey and working with all those who participate.

Human society is extremely complicated and fragile, built upon numerous pillars. One of them is the honey bees. one out of three meals eaten through humans is made possible by honeybees. They're so important that if all the honey bees were to die out, lots of plant would follow, which could lead to millions of  human beings starving in the following years. On top of that honey bees have a massive economic impact. The dollar value of plants pollinated by them each year is around 256 billion dollar. Food we take for granted could just stop existing without them, or there might be a huge decrease in productivity. Food including apples, onions, pumpkins and plant used for feeding farm animals and for that extremely important for our milk and meat.

Einstein is  quoted as having said 

\n
\"if honey bees die out, humans will follow a few years later.\" 
\n

Without a doubt he possibly didn't say that, But there might be some truth within the statement. It is unsettling but honey bees have started to disappear.Millions of hives have died within the past few years. Beekeepers all over the world have seen an annual loss of 30-90% in their colonies. In the US  bees are steadily declining. From 5 million hives in 1988 > 2.5 million hives these days. Since 2006, a phenomenon called \"colony collapse disorder\" has affected honey bees in many countries. And we're not entirely sure what is causing it. All we know is that it is pretty serious.

Over the last few decades bees have seen an invasion of very risky foes. Microscopic mites that infect the respiration tubes of bees. They lay their eggs and feed from the fluids of their victims, weakening them considerably and spending their whole life inside the bees. Or varroa destructor, a fitting name due to the fact they can only reproduce in honey bees hives and are one of the bees biggest enemies. The female mite enters a honey bee brood cell and lays eggs on the Bee larva earlier than it is about to pupate and before than the hive bees cover the cell with a wax capping. The eggs hatch and the young mites and their mom feed on the growing bee in the protection of the capped cell. The Bee is no normally  killed at this stage, just weekend, so it still has enough strength to chew its way through the Wax capping and release itself from the cell. As it does it releases the mite and her new offspring from the cell, and these are free to spread across the hive, beginning the process once more in a cycle of approximately 10 days. Their numbers grow exponentially, and after a few months, this may cause the collapse of the whole beehive. Once outside of the cell, adult mites also suck the body fluids of bees and weaken them extensively. To make Things worse, they transmit viruses that harm the bees even more and can lead to birth defects like useless wings.

But,there are other threats too which include viruses and fungi. Beneath normal circumstances, those phenomena should be manageable and are now not enough to explain the horrendous amount of dying occurring in bees. Over recent years new insecticides have been introduced that are deadly to bees. Neonicotinoids a chemical family similar to nicotine, Was authorized in the early 1990s as an alternative to chemical compounds like DDT. They assault insects through harming their nervous systems. Today they're the most broadly used pesticides in the world. Globally, they saw sales of 1.5 billion euros in 2008, Representing 24% of the worldwide market for pesticides. In 2013, neonicotinoids is had been used in the u.s.on about 95%  of corn and canola crops, and additionally on the vast majority of fruit and vegetables, like apples, cherries, peaches, oranges, berries, leafy greens, tomatoes, potatoes, cereal grains, rice, nuts, grapes and plenty of mores.

Bees come into touch with the toxin while collecting pollen or through infected water, often bringing material into the hive, wherein it can accumulate and slowly kill the whole colony. The toxins harm bees in a variety of terrible ways. In excessive sufficient doses, it quickly leads  to convulsions, paralysis and death. But even in small doses it can be fatal. It may lead to bees forgetting how to navigate the world, so bees fly into the wild, wander off and die alone separated from their hives. If this occurs often enough, a hive can lose its capability to maintain itself. we know that neonicotinoids are harmful to bees and that we urgently want an alternative to it, But there are billions of dollars to be made in delaying this. Studies sponsored by the chemical industry magically appear to prove a much lower toxicity to bees, compared to the ones produced by way of independent scientists.

\n

There are even more factors contributing to the dying of bees, like an excessive amount of genetic uniformity, Crop monocultures, Low nutrition due to overcrowding, stress due to human activities and other insecticides. Each of those factors on its own is a problem for bees, but together they probably account for colony collapse disease. With parasites upping their game in last years. The honeybees are now fighting for survival. it would be a catastrophe if they lost this fight. This is a conundrum we have to solve, if we want to continue living with a relative abundance and variety of food. Humanity is deeply interconnected with earth and the other existence life forms on it, even if we we pretend we are now not. We have to take care of our environment, if not to preserve the beauty of nature, Than at least to ensure our own survival.

Bees are some of humanity's most vital little creatures. Their work enables one third of our food supply world-wide. These fuzzy air-borne insects are currently experiencing a great tragedy, which has caused a great extinction or drop in a large number of their species. I found out that I'm allergic to them after stepping on one and being stung at an early age, yet they're another one of the creatures I'm largely fond of.

\n

For The Queen!
\n

\n

http://i.imgur.com/NcV9b4q.gif

\n

They're organised into 3 classes

\n

Queen -\u00a0
\nThe queen is an adult, mated female and is the largest bee in the colony. She lays 2000 eggs a day - roughly 400,000 a year. She is born when conditions are favourable for swarming and the old queen decides to lay an egg in a 'queen cup.' The workers then pack the egg cell with beeswax and leave the young queen larva to grow. When she's ready to come out, the new-born virgin queen simply chews her way out of the cell. By this time, the old queen has packed up and left to colonise another place with the prime swarm at her side. Born into a life of royalty, the new virgin queen grows up being specially fed by worker bees in order to make her sexually mature. Queen honey bees don't mate with drones from their home colony. There is normally only one adult, mated queen in a hive, in which case the bees will usually protect her with their lives. If the queen suddenly dies, the entire (up to 60,000-strong) worker population starts producing drone eggs. The drones then start consuming the hives resources without replenishing them and the colony soon begins to die from starvation.\u00a0
\nIn the case of a Brazilian bee called ' Schwarziana quadripunctata' though, a nest can have multiple queens or even dwarf queens, ready to replace a dominant queen in a case of sudden death. The workers bees of this colony can even force undeveloped dwarf queen larvae and queen larvae to be converted into worker bees, or be erased due to limits on their food supply.

\n

Worker Bee -\u00a0
\nThe majority of a hives population are worker bees. They collect the pollen, make the nest and honey, and care for the young and the queen. They do almost all of the work really, but they do it with a dance. It's called the 'bee dance' or 'waggle dance' and they use it to communicate information regarding food and resources with each other. This dance style varies from species to species as well. Similar to how rockers might dance to heavy music (Head-bangin') in comparison to people dancing to hip-hip (... Swangin')
\nThey create honey by flying to different blossoms and collecting a sugary juice called nectar.
\nWhen they have a full load, they take it back to their nest. There they pass the nectar to other worker bees who chew it, until it gradually turns into honey. The bees then place it in their walls made of beeswax and fan the honey with their wings until it's dry. When it's ready, they plug the cell with a beeswax lid to store it and keep it clean. They'll use this honey as food and will distribute it throughout their colony.
\nAll Worker bees are female and are the smallest bees in a colony. Some will take up the job of laying eggs, but are only capable of producing unfertilized eggs, which turn into males, also known as 'drones' - a process of the haplodiploid sex-determination system.
\nAn exception to this rule - laying worker bees in some subspecies of honey bees may also produce diploid (and therefore female) fertile offspring in a process called thelytoky.\u00a0

\n

Warning: Worker bees can sting you, but only once \u2013 They have a barbed sting in their tale which once lodged into your skin, doesn\u2019t retract. When this happens the sting and the poison gland breaks free, and the worker bee dies soon after, releasing an alarm pheromone which alerts other workers that a threat is nearby. Some people are particularly allergic to bees and medical treatment should be sorted, never the less. The poison can contain parasites and other nasty things. In other cases where the species doesn't have a sting, it uses its mandibles - the paired teeth that can be opened and closed to chew wood, manipulate wax, clean other bees and bite other workers or pests.
\nMost worker bees only live for a month due to the strenuous activities they undertake in order to keep the colony thriving. The wear and tear simply becomes too much.\u00a0

\n

Drone -\u00a0
\nLike the ant drones in my previous article, bee drones are the only male bees in the colony and are the product of an unfertilized egg. Unlike the female worker bee, drones don't have stingers and don't participate in nectar, pollen gathering or battle. The drones life purpose is to catch up with a fertile queen bee from another colony and mate. They're a bit bigger than worker bees and have eyes that are twice the size of those of worker bees and queens. Drones die off or are ejected from the hive by the worker bees in late autumn, and do not reappear in the bee hive until late spring. Such is life.

Cool facts about bees
\n
\n1) Bees have been around for millions of years!

\n

2) \u00a0Honey is the only food that includes all the necessities to sustain life, including enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and water; and it's the only food that contains "pinocembrin", an antioxidant associated with improved brain functioning. There are rumours that a person can live off just honey.

\n

3) \u00a0A honey bee can fly at about 15 miles per hour, and can do this for 6 miles.

\n

4) \u00a0The average worker bee produces about 1/12th a teaspoon of honey in her lifetime.

\n

5) \u00a0A hive of bees will fly 90,000 miles (the equivalent of three orbits around the earth) to collect nectar equivalent to 1 kilogram worth of honey.

\n

6) Bee's can recognise & learn human faces! The image in THIS article depicts what it would be like to see a person through the eyes of a bee.\u00a0

\n

7) They're dying off!

\n

That's right. Sad but true. If we didn't have bee's most of us would die.
\nThey need your help!\u00a0

\n

Pesticide and the climate change has been a proven cause of their rapidly falling numbers. You can read more about that HERE (note: I'm not one to discuss whether climate change is natural or is caused by mankind, but this is a current discussion and debate being held between people all over the world.)
\n

\n

Don't mess with bees or you might end up like this guy!
\nhttp://a.abcnews.com/images/International/AP_bee_record_01_jef_150526_12x5_1600.jpg
\n
\nI'm actually pretty amazed at how closely bees and ants resemble the complex structures of even our human civilisations. When I think of queen bees laying 'royal' eggs, then 'getting the heck' out of there, it reminds me of a human medieval power structure. Those in line to the throne might have personal reasoning to assassinate any standing in their way to it, including the king or queen themselves for example. As I said, a bee colony can only have one mated queen, and so this issue is sorted out through a fight to the death involving the two queens and the workers bees. In most disputes and battles in amongst themselves and with other colonies, drones (the male bees) sit on their arses and eat honey, as shown belown.\u00a0

\nBees come in many different shapes and sizes, but generally have the same structure. Their colour varies widely between species and showcases some very fascinating patterns.

These engineers, while capable of scientific/technological feats that we cannot match today also seemed to believe in some stupid/crazy/fantastical nonsense that either we have completely taken out of context, misinterpreted, COULD have possibly existed in some form, it could have been done to mislead the uneducated, propaganda, OR they could have just actually been crazy...\n\nI have a very difficult time believing that the people that created geometry, chemistry, and mastered engineering believed that some \"magic dude in the sky\" used his magic powers to \"turn planets\", or \"create stars\", as they seemed very intent on understanding anything they possibly could, so to attribute some things to \"gods\" because they \"couldn't explain them\", when the gods seemed to have VERY specific directions or clear interactions when it happened, it's not a consistent argument. Especially when you have things like the identification of Sirius B thousands of years before telescopes capable of seeing it would have been invented.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogon_people\nhttp://arcturi.com/AncientAliens/DogonPeopleAndAliens.html\n\nWhile I don't ascribe to the ancient alien theory, there might be a biological explanation as to why people used to believe in \"supernatural/superhuman\" beings.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bee_hives\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_Hive\n\nhttp://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t5/tabalitigi/neo2.jpg\n\nIn the natural world, we have bee hives, ant colonies, and many other \"hive minded\" species. This entails a \"collective consciousness\" so to speak, and in turn, it would mean that there is likely little ego, or \"individuals\" within the colony. I believe that at some point, humans existed in a \"hive mind\" state, and the collective consciousness would have naturally preceded the formation of the \"individual\".\n\nWhat this would imply, is that during the evolution of humans, if at some point in time, we were all tapped into a \"collective consciousness\", there would be NO NEED for written language, no NEED for written history traditions, and NO NEED for an economic system, as the information and resources had not yet reached a point that exceeded the \"collective consciousness's\" capacity to either process information, or distribute available resources.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homer\n\n\"The formative influence played by the Homeric epics in shaping Greek culture was widely recognized, and Homer was described as the teacher of Greece.[3] Homer's works, which are about fifty percent speeches, provided models in persuasive speaking and writing that were emulated throughout the ancient and medieval Greek worlds. Fragments of Homer account for nearly half of all identifiable Greek literary papyrus finds.[4]\"\n\nIf you are not familiar with \"Homer\" he is often misattributed as the \"writer\" of the Iliad and the Odyssey, when he was just supposedly the person who \"wrote them down\"...You have epics like the iliad and the odyssey being committed to memory by ONE person who is just ONE teacher amongst many scholars. I believe when you see THIS period of transition into \"writing\" things down, it's not because they reached the \"pinnacle\" of society necessarily, but they were breaking the processing limits of the collective consciousness, so it was necessary to begin using more methods of \"collecting information\" to record \"the important things\"...\nIf we use the \"computer\" as a metaphor for the collective consciousness since the computer was modeled after the brain, we can assume that the collective consciousness will hit a \"processing limit\". In computing, when we hit a processing limit, the solution is usually to take two equally fast processors, and divide the work load. This would be tantamount to a \"split\" in the collective consciousness: the formation of \"individuals\" able to process information outside of the \"processing limit\" of the \"collective consciousness\"...\n\nIt would be like an \"intranet\" vs. an \"Internet\"...\n\nthe collective conscious=Internet, and the individual = intranet...\n\nboth can be linked to each other, but the \"intranet\" has been \"disconnected\" from the \"Internet\" so it's functionally a \"private network\" at this point...\n\nNow, if this were the case, the \"hardware\" for the Internet, or collective consciousness would be \"vestigial brain tissue\" in SOME people but OTHER people might still be able to \"hack\" the Internet, and access the \"collective consciousness\", making them appear to have \"supernatural or godlike\" abilities. This is when you hear lore like that of \"alexander the great\" being able to stand on the shoulders of two of his men, and all three of them function as one warrior in battle...\n\nhttp://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t5/tabalitigi/smith2.jpg\n\nAlso, the idea of \"god kings\" or \"divine pharoahs\" where people completely devoted their lives and existence to one person, much like an ant colony or bee hive, and were able to accomplish things that a force under duress has NEVER been able to match. The reason I believe that there MIGHT have been some sort of different capacity of processing information is that you have these people who built the pyramids with VERY few people, VERY few resources, and didn't need to leave very much instruction on HOW to do it, for whatever reason.\n\nThey OBVIOUSLY weren't stupid, and although by this point they had definitely started keeping records, and were writing things down, they didn't much feel the need to record EVERY detail...I don't see these people being \"lazy\", or \"lax\" about their decision making, and on top of that, the idea that the \"information\" that this culture had amassed was SO dangerous that the religion that came to DOMINATE the world for the next 1200 years needed to completely wipe it off the face of the earth to rule the masses makes me think the christian church found something a long time ago that would explain why there are pyramids ALL over the planet, and whatever they found was something that allowed them to \"make everyone forget\"...\n\nI thought this might explain why we are moving TOWARDS a collective consciousness to a degree in the \"Internet\", as it's possible our neural network might be wired to \"be plugged in\"...\n\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collective_consciousness\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abilene_paradox\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groupthink\n\nhttp://farm7.static.flickr.com/6172/6138348999_f8bba5c918_m.jpg", + "category": "revolution", + "children": 3, + "created": "2016-07-15T14:38:48", + "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": true, + "json_metadata": { + "image": [ + "http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t5/tabalitigi/bluepill.jpg" + ], + "tags": [ + "revolution", + "origins", + "of", + "man", + "hive", + "mind" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 36340378157, + "payout": 0.032, + "payout_at": "2016-08-24T01:28:42", + "pending_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "origin-of-man-hive-mind-theory", + "post_id": 119967, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 4 + }, + "title": "Origin of Man: Hive Mind Theory", + "updated": "2016-07-15T14:46:18", + "url": "/revolution/@chris-bates/origin-of-man-hive-mind-theory" + }, + { + "active_votes": [ { - "rshares": 24393303610, - "voter": "team-leibniz" + "rshares": 17100215770, + "voter": "proctologic" }, { - "rshares": 35567732014, - "voter": "fatboy" + "rshares": 22671641722, + "voter": "himalayanguru" }, { - "rshares": 7289374494, - "voter": "webdeals" + "rshares": 16330046997, + "voter": "glib" }, { - "rshares": 22100599535, - "voter": "proto" + "rshares": 3255839429, + "voter": "btcturbo" }, { - "rshares": 598459575, - "voter": "curator" + "rshares": 0, + "voter": "applecrisp" }, { - "rshares": 31223582636, - "voter": "brianphobos" + "rshares": 477051640, + "voter": "icocountdown" }, { - "rshares": 9379809106, - "voter": "michaeldodridge" + "rshares": 245503290110, + "voter": "fyrstikken" }, { - "rshares": 1945721967, - "voter": "tygergamer" + "rshares": 16732319744, + "voter": "grey580" }, { - "rshares": 719753883, - "voter": "steemuwe" + "rshares": 198194750, + "voter": "diego24" }, { - "rshares": 77368907, - "voter": "nicoleta" + "rshares": 86924063, + "voter": "riscadox" }, { - "rshares": 34353610364, - "voter": "jasonstaggers" + "rshares": 3172445112, + "voter": "robertleal" }, { - "rshares": 2601777531, - "voter": "weenis" + "rshares": 62429719, + "voter": "ardina" }, { - "rshares": 103656599962, - "voter": "steemdrive" + "rshares": 11852519, + "voter": "surf4life" }, { - "rshares": 11048161290, - "voter": "taker" + "rshares": 123893453, + "voter": "vkoreshkoff" }, { - "rshares": 1884834922, - "voter": "sykochica" + "rshares": 1608643576, + "voter": "niquebs" }, { - "rshares": 2640573956, - "voter": "timcliff" + "rshares": 226334510, + "voter": "creationlayer" }, { - "rshares": 20204434115, - "voter": "yng-entrepreneur" + "rshares": 230958873, + "voter": "ethan850" }, { - "rshares": 25934610459, - "voter": "laonie1" + "rshares": 22179845357, + "voter": "solidgold" }, { - "rshares": 26492606089, - "voter": "laonie2" - }, + "rshares": 43091605, + "voter": "jesus2" + } + ], + "author": "creationlayer", + "author_payout_value": "0.060 HBD", + "author_reputation": 60.55, + "beneficiaries": [], + "blacklists": [], + "body": "\n

Bitcoin Primer (original material)

\n

The Bitcoin wiki is a great resource for anything from basic to highly technical questions. If you find yourself confused with a term in the guide or want more clarification start by checking here, as the accuracy is of a much higher standard than community resources like reddit, or Bitcointalk. There\u2019s a lot of noise out there, but the community has taken care to preserve the accuracy on this wiki.

Introduction to Bitcoin

\n

Bitcoin is an electronic peer-to-peer cash system. Electronic meaning it only exists on the internet, and peer-to-peer meaning you can send Bitcoins to anyone on the network with an address. There is no traditional oversight or censorship of transfers, so if you want to send $10,000 worth of Bitcoin to someone across the globe you can in a matter of minutes, with almost no fee. Like cash you can spend it anywhere it\u2019s accepted and it can not be censored. However, it shares another property of cash, it needs to be protected securely. Just like if someone gets your wallet from your back pocket if someone gets access to the keys to your Bitcoin, they can take the value. In the past years security has drastically improved, and service providers have taken advanced security measures with some holding insurance for the value of all the assets they hold. We\u2019ll make sure to only suggest products and companies we personally would trust with our Bitcoin.

\n

Bitcoin was invented by a pseudonym, or alias called Satoshi Nakamoto. It was likely a group of programmers, that collaborated and released the system anonymously. There have been many theories as to the identity and rationale of releasing the system anonymously. For instance, the creator(s) could have feared government censorship or simply did not want recognition and preferred to leave the upkeep of the network to the community. Whoever it was, the code base has significantly changed under the leadership of Gavin Andreesen who currently coordinates changes to Bitcoins code. Major changes are few and far between, giving Bitcoin amazing stability, and security, but there are consistently minor improvements and rewriting of code by collaborators.

\n

Why does Bitcoin have value?

\n

It comes down to what people describe as the network effect. Bitcoin is accepted at a large number of locations on and off-line, and has the most active users, and developers of any of the new payment systems. While you may hear the argument that Bitcoin has limitations which could keep it from maintaining dominance, keep in mind that new developments are planned that can extend Bitcoin to reach a broader audience. Rather than limitations Bitcoin has technical hurdles. Currently the core development is backed by MIT, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the startup community has been growing more rapid than the beginning of the internet boom. These factors show long-term positive growth for the technology, and underlying value of the asset.

\n

Why Trade Bitcoin?

\n

Well by now you\u2019ve already at least committed the effort to get to know Bitcoin. We consider Bitcoin closest to an asset class, like Gold. There\u2019s a finite supply of 21 million total, and only so many can be produced daily. However, the market is volatile, and can shift quickly in either direction. We think that volatility is one of the great attributes for a Bitcoin trader. A knowledgeable trader, can make profit in a down or up market. While many large players have taken the stance of buying large chunks of Bitcoin and holding them, we see room for profit, regardless of the valuation of the asset. You can either trust the market to go where you want, hold and wait, or become more active and knowledgeable and grow your portfolio. That\u2019s why we\u2019re here to guide you along the path of growing your portfolio.

\n

How does it work?

\n

To simplify what bitcoin is in a sentence. Bitcoin funds are under the complete control of the owner, and any amount can be sent at little or no cost to anyone on the network globally, and irreversibly, with minimal wait time as long as there is an internet connection.

\n

Brief Technical Overview

\n

Bitcoin is made up of a network of nodes and miners. Nodes are like servers, that connect together to broadcast when someone has sent Bitcoin. Miners are machines whose purpose is to compute a specific problem which secures the network. Keys are like a passphrase that unlock an address and it\u2019s funds. Some transactions may cost a small fee, which eventually goes to miners. The amount is minute, and many platforms cover them complimentary. Transactions are irreversible eliminating the need and possibility of individual oversight once funds are sent. The private key(s) of an address give full access to exchange value on the network, like a key to a safe. Once a transaction is broadcasted to the network, or sent to nodes, miners work to confirm the legitimacy of the transaction. Miners compete to find the solution to a complex problem, that comes from the SHA-256 algorithm. This algorithm, is a secure hashing algorithm, that can not be reverse engineered, and secures the value of each users funds. The miner that solves the problem is rewarded with Bitcoin. This process secures the network, by creating a decentralized network of computers which compete to earn a reward. 

\n

By finding the answer the transaction is proven valid and secure. This allows Bitcoin to operate freely without censorship or a central group which verifies transactions. Sometimes when depositing or sending Bitcoin you will have to wait for confirmations. Generally 3 confirmations, averaging about 10 minutes a piece, meaning miners have solved the problem and proven transactions valid are required to deposit funds. Transactions are actually sent near instantly and some services, like BitPay, do not wait for confirmations. Bitcoins are actually values in what\u2019s called the Blockchain. Instead of thinking of them as singular coins, or units, think of it as a database similar to what a bank has with it\u2019s accounting system. Your addresses are like the account numbers you have at a bank, and your specific balance is securely stored in the global network. This Blockchain database or ledger is distributed all across the network, and allows anyone to verify the amount of funds for a specific address. One simple way to do this is with a block explorer, like http://blockchain.info. Here you can specify an address or transaction number and see what took place on the network. The Blockchain itself does not store personal details about addresses, but when using exchanges or services to buy coins it\u2019s likely your transactions will be tracked on their platform separate from the Blockchain. We\u2019ll go into more depth about the technology in another guide but this is a quick recap of the technology.

\n

Buying Coins

\n

Choosing where to buy:

\n

First and foremost, you\u2019re looking for a trustworthy entity to purchase from. The bigger companies, like coinbase and circle are well known, and have great track records. The one drawback is the more established company you select likely the more information you will need to provide. Feel free to ask us any questions about companies, and you can generally contact their support at any time beforehand to clear up any confusion.

\n

coinbase - http://coinbase.com

\n

Is a U.S. based company, that has a great track record. Coins can be purchased via Bank Wire and if you link a credit card, funds can be deposited instantly.

\n

circle - http://circle.com

\n

Circle is a U.S. based company that allows purchase of Bitcoins with credit card and Bank Wire. It has a good track record, but has not been around as long as coinbase.

\n

localbitcoins.com - http://localbitcoins.com

\n

LocalBitcoins allows you to find vendors in your local area to purchase Bitcoin in person or other payment options. You should proceed with caution, as many scams have happened at the site, and when doing in person deals pick comfortable, public spaces like cafe\u2019s. It\u2019s best to check feedback for a user, and ensure those giving feedback are also trusted accounts.

\n

atm - http://coinatmradar.com

\n

You may find it convenient to buy coins from an ATM. You may still have to provide information, but the process is generally quick, and even large amounts can be handled.

\n

Here\u2019s a good resource for finding an ATM: http://coinatmradar.com/

\n

On exchange

\n

Most exchanges allow you to make a bank transfer to the exchange to purchase coins once you have submitted identity documentation.

Exchanges

\n

Choosing an exchange

\n

When choosing an exchange there are multiple important factors. One is trading instrument. Some offer leverage, lending and options style contracts and other have standard 1 to 1 or spot trading. Other factors include cost of fees, liquidity, security and quality of customer service. In our expert trading guides, we\u2019ll expand on these points but we\u2019ve highlighted key aspects in the exchange summaries below.

\n

bitfinex - http://bitfinex.com

\n

Bitfinex is a Hong Kong based exchange that caters to the english speaking world. It is the largest exchange used by United States customers. It offers spot trading, 3 to 1 leverage, and the ability to lend Bitcoins at interest. This is a good option if you have excess funds and want to earn small interest. Funds can be deposited via Bank Wire and identification only needs to be given for depositing or withdrawing funds. It also has pretty good liquidity. There are trading fees.

\n

coinbase - http://coinbase.com

\n

Is a U.S. based company, that has a great track record. Coins can be purchased via Bank Wire and if you link a credit card, funds can be deposited instantly. Coinbase has expanded to adding an exchange which currently only allows spot trading. Users are required to complete identification before using coinbase. There are trading fees.

\n

okcoin - http://okcoin.com

\n

okcoin.com is the international version of their chinese site. They offer spot trading, peer-to-peer lending, similar to the lending on Bitfinex, and futures trading. Futures are like options that expire after a set amount of time, one-week, two-weeks, or quarterly. Futures have to be traded at either ten and twenty times leverage.  There are trading fees.

\n

okcoin.cn - http://okcoin.cn

\n

The chinese version of okcoin.  It\u2019s one of if not the largest Bitcoin exchange meaning there is a lot of liquidity for traders. There is also zero fees permanently. Even if you don\u2019t plan to deposit or withdraw, Chinese Yuan, you may consider it as a platform for trade, because of the liquidity and zero fees, and withdraw your funds later for conversion back to desired currency..

\n

bitstamp - http://bitstamp.net

\n

Bitsamp used to be the leading Bitcoin exchange. They offer spot trade. They suffered a security breach, and lost a large amount of money, however all funds were covered and users did not suffer any loss. After that event, and temporary downtime users started switching platforms. Also their lack of alternate trading methods or lending makes it less desirable. There are trading fees.

\n

bitmex - http://bitmex.com

\n

Bitmex is a smaller exchange, but we mention it because it has what are called volatility contracts. You can trade against the volatility of Bitcoin not the specific price. There are trading fees.

\n

bitreserve  - http://bitreserve.org

\n

Bitreserve is not exactly an exchange, but more a storage for funds. It allows instant conversion from Bitcoin, to gold, other assets and fiat currencies generally for zero fees. For those interested in hedging against gold, or converting funds back and forth and holding various currencies it\u2019s a great option. Here\u2019s a list of their current offerings: https://bitreserve.org/en/status

\n

kraken - http://kraken.com

\n

Offers trading between cryptocurrencies, FIAT and margin trading, after verification. It\u2019s a long-term established exchange, but has low liquidity.

\n

Choosing a Wallet

\n

There are many options for wallets. We\u2019ve taken the time to select what we consider the most functional and secure solutions. Each has a trade off, as their individual implementations have advantages and disadvantages. The main difference is in order to make a wallet convenient and easy to use, there is some exchange in security. In some cases that means trusting the company that hosts the wallet, in others it\u2019s more technical in nature. In any case, for funds you\u2019re not actively trading or loaning on an exchange, it\u2019s a good idea to find a convenient and secure way to manage and store funds.

\n

In this section the term multi-signature is used. This means instead of one key or password there are multiples. These can be distributed so that one key is held on the server of the company, and one key is controlled by you for instance. For more information on multi-signature visit: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Multisignature

\n

Recommended All around, iOS/Android/Desktop/Web wallets

\n

While these are not our favorite wallets, what they do have in common is they work on all your devices. This is great if you commonly switch between devices, and want to always have access to funds. For larger amounts we recommends using secure multisig storage on Bitgo or Coinbase, or using a fully featured desktop wallet like Electrum or Armory, although Green Address and Hive do have some native multi-signature support.

\n

Green Address -https://greenaddress.it/en/

\n

GreenAddress is a multi-signature multiplatform wallet. It\u2019s easy to use but not as advanced or configurable as some of the wallets specific to one platform, like electrum, or Breadwallet.

\n

Hive Wallet - https://www.hivewallet.com/

\n

Hive is a fast multiplatform wallet. It has social components where you can easily send to other users on the platform.

\n

Recommended Web Wallets

\n

Bitgo - http://bitgo.com

\n

Bitgo is a highly customizable web wallet, with support for multi-signature and other security options. It\u2019s typically used as a secure service provider for exchanges and platforms, but can also be used by individual users.

\n

Circle - http://circle.com

\n

Circle is an easy to use web wallet, but doesn\u2019t provide additional security like coinbase vault.

\n

Coinbase - http://coinbase.com

\n

Coinbase has a web wallet, and also offers multi-signature secure storage in what they call the coinbase vault. 

\n

Recommended Desktop Wallets

\n

Armory Wallet - https://bitcoinarmory.com/

\n

Armory is considered the most advanced full featured Bitcoin Wallet for Desktop. You will need to sync the Blockchain, but if you want the most extensive feature set and security Armory is a great option.

\n

Electrum Wallet - https://electrum.org/#home

\n

Electrum is a great desktop wallet, with many security features. It\u2019s an SPV client meaning it doesn\u2019t need to sync the blockchain and is ready to go right away. It encrypts keys and is an HD-Wallet, meaning Hierarchical Deterministic so with one passphrase and seed you can have many addresses.

\n

Recommended Mobile Wallets

\n

These wallets are specifically focused on mobile devices. That means they offer better security, and more options over wallets that share multiple services like green address, and Hive.

\n

iOS Only

\n

breadwallet - http://breadwallet.com/

\n

Breadwallet is an easy to use, full Bitcoin client iOS wallet. You control fully your funds, and don\u2019t have to trust any third party to store credentials. It also utilizes the underlying security architecture of iOS.

Android Only

\n

Mycelium - https://mycelium.com/bitcoinwallet

\n

Mycelium is an open-source android wallet, that is fast and has options for offline storage/management of keys. It\u2019s not a full client so waiting for the blockchain to synchronize is not necessary.

\n

Hardware Wallets

\n

Trezor - https://www.bitcointrezor.com/

\n

rezor is a hardware device similar to a USB stick, that allows you to store funds in an encrypted manner. This can be useful for securely storing funds offline.

\n

Paper Wallets

\n

Both Armory and electrum support mnemonic codes, essentially a set of regular words, that can be easily written down to recover a wallet. You could utilize encryption to store the phrases in an encrypted fashion even on paper. With these phrases you can recover every address in your electrum or armory desktop wallet, except those that were imported. The seed itself can recover all addresses, as both employ technology called HD, or Hierarchical Deterministic Wallets. To make the paper wallet more secure you can split it into parts, or use a BIP-38 encrypted key both of which are options in Armory and Electrum when generating. More information can be found here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Paper_wallet

\n

Offline Wallets

\n

A wallet address can be generated while not connected to the internet. For secure storage of large funds it may be a good idea to create addresses offline. This way the information about the address has never touched the internet, and you can be certain the only threat is physical access. Remember to securely delete the generated files, before connecting or use a fresh operating system, or live operating system.

\n

Encrypted Storage

\n

https://bitcoin.org/en/secure-your-wallet

\n

Encryption basically makes the contents of something unreadable without a password or key. It\u2019s the same technology Bitcoin uses to secure transactions and we recommend you use it yourself to protect your important documents. Remember if you lose access to the password, or key for an encrypted file, just like Bitcoin is near impossible to recover.

\n

Veracrypt - https://veracrypt.codeplex.com/

\n

Veracrypt is a secure solution to encrypting a single file, creating an encrypted directory or encrypting a volume. This is important because when you store Bitcoin private keys or other private information, you may wish to encrypt it. Armory and Electrum already use password encryption for stored files, but if you wish to export a plain text key, or have an extra level of security, you can use veracrypt to create an encrypted storage environment.

\n

Keepassx - https://www.keepassx.org/downloads/

\n

Keepassx is a handy password wallet, which you can use to backup login credentials, private key and other text information in a database that is encrypted.

Recommended Books

\n

If you prefer to learn in a book form, we definitely recommend these two books. Digital Gold is from a journalistic perspective, and more accessible whereas Mastering Bitcoin is an in-depth technical perspective. For the trader, Digital Gold is probably a better fit.

Digital Gold: Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money

\n

Description: Bitcoin, the landmark digital money and financial technology, has spawned a global social movement with utopian ambitions. The notion of a new currency, maintained by the computers of users around the world, has been the butt of many jokes, but that has not stopped it from growing into a technology worth billions of dollars, supported by the hordes of followers who have come to view it as the most important new idea since the creation of the internet. Believers from Beijing to Buenos Aires see the potential for a financial system free from banks and governments, and a new global money for the digital age. An unusual tale of group invention, Digital Gold tells the story of the colorful characters who have built Bitcoin, including a Finnish college student, an Argentinian millionaire, a Chinese entrepreneur, Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, Bitcoin's elusive creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, and the founder of the Silk Road online drug market, Ross Ulbricht. With Digital Gold, New York Times reporter Nathaniel Popper offers a brilliant and engrossing account of this new technology\u2014one filled with dramatic booms and busts that have led to untold riches for some and prison terms for others. But at each step of the way, Bitcoin has provided one of the most fascinating tests of how money works, who benefits from it, and what it might look like in the future..

\n\nHave you seen @robinhoodwhale's teaser intro post?\n\nThe basic idea, as I understand it, is to build out a new whale whose voting tastes and curation habits are determined by a group of people, a hive mind, instead of a single individual. I find this idea fascinating and wanted to support it while also challenging myself to write my own bot in PHP. The bot monitors @robinhoodwhale's voting activity and, if there's a new vote, goes ahead and votes on that same post using piston. The idea being, as more people vote up what @robinhoodwhale votes on, the more curation rewards @robinhoodwhale will make and the more visibility those posts will get (making @robinhoodwhale even more valuable to the community).\n\nI worked on the CopyCatVoter bot yesterday and had it running all night.

I'm doing this to conserve some voting power for people in my feed, but will probably change that up based on how active I plan to be on Steemit for a given time period.\n\nAll the code for this is on Github here: https://github.com/lukestokes/php-steem-tools. The CopyCatVoter code is here and the code to run it is currently in a test folder. This is basically my embarrassing prototype sandbox play code, but I'm putting it out there publicly in case anyone else wants to play with it also. You'll need to be able to run php and have piston configured with your posting key and have no password on your piston wallet (I hear from @xeroc some changes will be coming in the future to allow for ENV variable for this).\n\nSo why did I do this instead of just using my account at https://streemian.com/ and its curation trail feature? Well, mainly because I wanted to challenge myself. I really like the idea of having my own bot I can tweak and adjust, almost like a pet. I'm already thinking of improvements to make, such as ensuring it will unvote a post if @robinhoodwhale removes a vote.\n\nAlso, I like to have the output available for me to review. I'm not one to automate social media activities, so it took a while for me to warm up to the idea of trusting others to curate good content. I had to trust the hive mind to promote content which will benefit Steemit as a platform. With it running locally, I can easily review the posts and still use that 24 hour window to remove my vote if it's something I don't personally think is beneficial to the network or if it is contrary to my subjective opinion of what I \"like.\"\n\nIf you want to know more about @robinhoodwhale, give them a follow. You can review the list of posts they've already voted for in this spreadsheet which is updated in real time, as far as I understand. Shout out to @kyriacos for the awesome artwork and the robinhood / robinhood-links chat channels.\n\nI hope you're having a great weekend!\n**Steem On**\n[![LukeStokes01712.png](https://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/08/14/LukeStokes01712.png)](https://steemit.com/@lukestokes)", -

As a traditional beekeeper, I find this very intriguing but I have my doubts that it's as easy as they say . . . .

\n

but their Indiegogo pitch page has got tons of bee pictures and bee videos and good bee advice (and ends August 22nd).

\n

\n

The campaign has some really cool T-shirts (with all profits through August 22nd going to The Rainforest Trust, to help preserve forest ecosystems around the world).

\n

\n

And they've certainly gotten a bunch of publicity from the Australian media

\n

\n

And I'm certainly all for anything that brings more people into beekeeping

\n

(again, I know nothing about this product other than it looks intriguing -- if someone has experience with it, *please* tell me about it in the comments or write a blog post and I'll link to it)

Do you like my new Steemit bees GIF? I've been busy at work tonight getting a few drawings down on paper based on my idea of Steemit being a hive of activity.\n\n\nLike the bees do we all have different roles within the hive? What do you think yours is? Worker, drone, or a queen?\n\nhttp://opheliafu.thefugroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/bee-individual-263x300.jpg\n\nBees are social insects that live together in large, organised family groups. For these social colonies to survive then communication is vital and no individual can survive without the support of the colony. \n\nSo let's make like busy bees and get to work at building a successful and creative Steemit hive!", - "category": "steemit", - "children": 9, - "created": "2016-07-23T23:21:36", - "curator_payout_value": "0.192 HBD", + "body": "![](https://i.imgur.com/MwWKmtB.jpg)\n\nPeople often don\u2019t understand the difference between two these pretty beautiful black and yellow color insects. I\u2019ll try to explain the main deference between them. For example, I\u2019ll tell you about their sizes, stings, behavior, vital activity, usefulness and so on. \nImage Source\n\nThe sizes\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/YA7yEng.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nYes, two these interesting insects have a pretty similar black and yellow color. However, the bees are much smaller than the wasps. Have you ever seen two these insects together? Wasps are really huge comparing with bees. Moreover, they make a little bit different sound. The buzzed \u00ablanguage\u00bb of these insects is a huge another topic. I\u2019ll just tell you that wasps are louder than bees. \nAdding to that, the shape of the bee\u2019s and swap\u2019s body is different too. Yes, they have similar black and yellow color but this color, actually, is different. Bee has a more rounded body shape. Its cover has villi; the color is muted. The \tswap has a smooth elongated body and very bright colors. \n\nVital activity and usefulness\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/jI0VAbJ.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nBees are toilers because of their nature. They are ready to work endless for the good of their hive. The food of bees is a flowers\u2019 nectar. They can\u2019t eat something else, the flowers\u2019 nectar is their just one their food. Bees plays a very important economical and agricultural role. Collecting nectar of flowers, bees produce a variety of useful and healthy products that people use in pharmaceuticals and human nutrition. The bees even use industrially in the open fields. Bees\u2019 honeycombs are erected by their own wax by people. \n\nThe wasps aren\u2019t able to produce any useful products. They make their hives from the different wastes. All these waste can be really different but in the most of cases aren\u2019t useful at all. The nutrition of wasps is diversely enough. They can eat both fruits and nectar. That\u2019s because we always can meet swaps near the fruit stalls at the trades. Moreover, swaps can even eat flies and other small insects. They can even eat the meat products in the towns and cities. \nHowever, wasps are not that useless. They are not useful for people but they\u2019re very useful for nature. For example, they play a very important ecological role: adult wasps visit the places of juice on the trunks of trees (in particular, elm and aspen) and inflorescences of various plants. \nBy the way, wasps are smart enough: wasps actively catch various small insects, including bees, but mostly small caterpillars, the flies-eristaly and various two-wing insects to feed the young workers. \n\nBehavior\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/m2HLpgk.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nThe bees sting just if they see a real dangerous, just in an emergence situation. Moreover, they do it just if someone attack them first and they must protect thir hive. The bee dies immediately after the sting and lost her sting in the body of its rival. \nThere\u2019s a certain hierarchy in the family of bees. The highest position always takes bee calls \u00abqueen\u00bb. All bees care about her well-being because just queen is able to multiply the hive. The bees create all conditions for her comfortable existence at winter. \nThe wasp is an aggressive insect enough. Molestation and ability to sting at any time are the main characteristics of wasp. Adding to that, wasps don\u2019t die after their sting. Moreover, the wasp use the jaw apparatus for protecting of rivals, what isn\u2019t characteristically for insects of this family. The queen spends the winter alone; it doesn\u2019t have helpers or securities. It leaves larvae and build a nest in the whole loneliness. \n\nThe sting\n===\n![](https://i.imgur.com/hzAJ5jw.jpg)\nImage Source\n\nMany sources indicate that bees unlike swaps have serrated sting. That\u2019s not exactly like that. Wasps have developed a more perfect weapon in the process of evolution \u2013 the sting of the predator that is also provided with notches, but the notch smaller than the bee\u2019s one. \nThe most important thing is that there\u2019s not a kind of assembly on the bee\u2019s tip of sting. That\u2019s because wasps can sting for many times and bees die after the first sting. \n\nIn conclusion, I want to say that the main difference is that bees make a great very healthy honey and many other different useful products and die from the first sting. Nowadays people haven\u2019t found any useful products from swaps, moreover, they can sting as many times as they want. \n\n###

 SteemHouse Welcomes New Bees! 

\n

We got our shipment in of bees in today! Finally! Now we can stop with all the inefficient, fake hand pollinating. You can't beat mother nature when it comes to anything in nature! 

\n

 There is a saying about busy bees and let me tell you, these bees started faster than any other bees we have ever had.  Usually, when we get a shipment of bees, we set the out in the Steemhouse, and I run thru the steps to get the hive ready. The last step is to open the little slider that allows the bees out of the hive. 

\n

 I usually sit and watch for any bee movement, and in about four or five minutes they will start to emerge. This time, I walked away for less than a minute and bees were lined up to get out of the hive, granted we often get bees during the colder months so that may slow them down a bit. 

\n
\n

 Let's just hope they keep up the enthusiasm and start some round the clock pollination!

\n
\n

 This is the box that holds the hive inside, these bees do not make honey, but they earn their keep just the same.  The hole that you see right in the center of the lid is the entrance and exit holes, the plastic slider moves up and you can set it to where the bees can move in and out freely or just enter the hive and stay there. This comes in handy if you ever want to relocate the hive. If you were to move the hive while the bees are out, they would be lost. You would have a large swarm of bees hovering where the hive used to be. They have a great memory as far as the location of the hive, but no problem-solving skills to find the new location. 

\n


\n

I shot some video of me setting up the hive and it is awful, it's hard to shoot and work the box with only one hand, so please forgive me for the crap quality, but I think it covers most of it.

\n

 And as I said earlier, a little video of the bees ready to get out and work! Hope you enjoy them!

In Other News

\n

 Quick update on the tomatoes, last week I showed you a few new baby tomatoes. this week they have grown a little bit, getting close to golf ball size. So now with the bees in, we should see new tomatoes start to pack on the vines. Hold on tight folks, the fun is just starting!

\n
\n
\n

 

\n

Sorry for the lack of updates, but things are really moving right now, I'll try to get more updates in as we go.

\n

Thanks for stopping by and hope you come back!

(membrane winged insects) Do you know what being a social insect means? They are insects which live in large groups. These are called colonies and a single honey bee colony can have as many as 60,000 bees in it. With so many bees in each colony, it is important that different jobs are given to different bees, and that each bee knows what it should be doing.\nOrganization is Important for Bees\n\nOrganization is important because the success of the colony is dependent on how well the bees work their jobs. Team work among the colony is vital for the hive to function well. And so for the good of the hive, the entire colony must work as a team. In case you don\u2019t exactly know, a hive is the bee\u2019s home or nest, where eggs are laid and the bees store their ready made honey. Inside the hive, there are three types of bees: the queen, workers, and drones. Each bee has its own purpose within this hive.\n\nhttps://savetheearth.coop/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/05b9387d-ec48-42d4-bc69-1b4e4f8b8df5-4.png\n\nThe Queen of The Hive\nThere is only one queen within a typical hive and \u2013 interesting fact \u2013 the male drones actually do not have stingers. The queen, as well as worker bees, have stings at the end of their abdomens, which they use in emergencies to defend their territory should the hive be attacked. The queen is the largest bee in the hive, with a longer abdomen, a non hairy shiny thorax (middle section). She maintains the colony\u2019s numbers by laying as many eggs as she possibly can, laying up to 2,000 eggs a day.\n\nWorker Bees\nThe worker bees outnumber the other bees in the hive, although they are the smallest members of the beehive. Did you know that, in fact, all worker bees are female? And as I previously mentioned, worker bees have stingers; however, they can only sting once and then they die because when they sting, parts of their internal organs are pulled out with the sting. Ouch.\n\nWhy are Honey Bees So Important\nHoney bees are very important. Why is this? They are the strongest link in the chain between the people who grow the food and the people who eat the food. Without bee pollination, the food we eat could decrease by up to a 3rd. Many fruits such as oranges, apples, peaches, pears, strawberries, cherries, vegetables, nuts and seeds are all pollinated by worker bees. As well as pollinating many crops, honey produced by honey bees is a very important source of energy especially in poorer nations.\n\nHow Can we Help Honey Bees? \nHumans have been harvesting honey for at least 6000 years, possibly longer. At this present time bees are suffering from many conditions which have plummeted their numbers to drastic levels and many hives have mysteriously disappeared. The causes aren\u2019t fully understood, but are usually blamed on the rising use of pesticides, and many diseases which colonies tend to suffer from like the deadly cripaviridae, and chronic bee paralysis virus. Everything in our absolute capability must be done to find the causes. We we must protect bee colonies.\n\nWe must also encourage wild bees by planting flowers, particularly flowers they like, which will help encourage their numbers. It\u2019s quite simple. Without bees, we will not be able to eat the necessary fruits and vegetable we need in our diets. No bees, no ecosystem. If the bees go, they will take us with them.\n\nhttps://savetheearth.coop/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/seeds-300x225.jpg?42a6f2\n\nJoin us here and be part of a movement to make change http://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/save-the-earth-the-peoples-cooperative", - "category": "bees", - "children": 0, - "created": "2016-08-06T16:14:48", - "curator_payout_value": "0.044 HBD", - "depth": 0, - "is_paidout": true, - "json_metadata": { - "image": [ - "https://savetheearth.coop/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/05b9387d-ec48-42d4-bc69-1b4e4f8b8df5-3.png" - ], - "tags": [ - "bees", - "environment", - "selfsufficiancy", - "orgaincfood", - "ecovillages" - ] - }, - "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", - "net_rshares": 213626276140, - "payout": 0.19, - "payout_at": "2016-09-06T04:43:30", - "pending_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "percent_hbd": 10000, - "permlink": "what-are-honey-bees-and-why-are-they-important", - "post_id": 646369, - "reblogs": 0, - "replies": [], - "stats": { - "flag_weight": 0.0, - "gray": false, - "hide": false, - "total_votes": 3 - }, - "title": "What are Honey Bees And Why Are They Important?", - "updated": "2016-08-06T16:14:48", - "url": "/bees/@sofabear/what-are-honey-bees-and-why-are-they-important" - }, - { - "active_votes": [ - { - "rshares": 66341454434, - "voter": "charleshosk" + "rshares": 4547333651, + "voter": "glitterpig" }, { - "rshares": 64600998, - "voter": "avempace" + "rshares": 1783617238, + "voter": "nekromarinist" }, { - "rshares": 34463300251, - "voter": "roy2016" + "rshares": 59219358, + "voter": "sharon" }, { - "rshares": 77365443, - "voter": "prophetdaniel" + "rshares": 58958028, + "voter": "lillianjones" }, { - "rshares": 55343561, - "voter": "hanuk" - } - ], - "author": "prophetdaniel", - "author_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "author_reputation": 42.13, - "beneficiaries": [], - "blacklists": [], - "body": "# Ethereum Classic Community Dynamics Proposal\n

\n## Nature Inspired Dynamics\nFor every opportunity presented to Ethereum Classic community I think it should not disencourage going to several random different approaches as a mutant evolving community. If an individual can grab some fruits in one direction awesome. If it starts to starve in another, that direction might be cancelled like in a [L\u00e9vy flight foraging hypothesis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A9vy_flight_foraging_hypothesis) performed by a bee looking for pollen for example.\n\n

Figure 1. An example of 1000 steps of a L\u00e9vy flight in two dimensions. The origin of the motion is at [0,0], the angular direction is uniformly distributed and the step size is distributed according to a L\u00e9vy (i.e. stable) distribution with \u03b1 = 1 and \u03b2 = 0 which is a Cauchy distribution. Source [wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A9vy_flight).
\nThe analogy helps to understand a proposed dynamics for the community:\n
    \n
  • Each hive has limited resources depending upon the ecossytem where that hive is located among other factors.
    • \n
  • The species (analogous to the community) can be considered as a population of hives.
    • \n
  • Each bee's purpose is to make its hive and species grow stronger. A bee is a high valued asset for the hive. As each hive is a valued asset for the species.
    • \n
  • A regular bee can develop leadership skills becoming a leading bee.
    • \n
  • A leading bee can form a new hive and should be encouraged to do so.
    • \n
\nAccording to the resources requirement, the selection of the best looking path by a single bee has to somehow be performed. Going into one direction has a cost function related to the bee fatigue. If it doesn't find pollen after a long run, best to abort mission and return to the hive to rest and recover energy. When that happens the hive is encouraged to welcome that bee with proud, happiness and warming comfort.\n\n## Ethereum Classic community development\n

There is only one queen\n2. Almost all bees are female, only drones are male\n3. Basically all drones do is mate (then die)\n4. Drones can't sting\n5. If you keep bees you will get stung once in a while\n6. Most people aren't endangered by a sting, it's just a pain and discomfort\n7. Bees are hairy looking. Wasps, yellow jackets and such are smooth. \n8. If all the honey bees in North America died tomorrow it wouldn't stop pollination from happening and thus we all would *not* starve. Honey bees were imported from Europe so native pollinators would still be around.\n9. A hive will have 10 - 40 thousand bees or more\n10. For each bee you may only get one drop of honey\n11. It is common to harvest forty pounds of honey or more from a good hive \n12. A good bee keeper can split one hive into two or three per year but will not get much honey \n13. You probably will lose a hive in your first year of learning\n\nIf you are interested in beekeeping the best thing you can do is find a group near you and start attending meetings. Local factors are important and you'll meet experienced keepers, they are your most valuable resource. Keep in mind that if you ask five bee keepers about a specific subject you could get six answers. So glean what you can, respect the source, compare how things work out for you, ask more questions and then gauge what methods prove out. \n\nShould you decide to take up this hobby you'll find many guides telling you what a starter kit should have. The obvious things are: \n### Hive parts\nBottom (base), Hive body (deep and medium sizes), frames (these go in the body), inner cover, outer cover (weather proof)\n### Tools & Gear\nVeil and hat, hive tool, smoker, gloves\n### Bees\nYou need to obtain live bees! It can be done via mail, believe it or not the post office will even call you on a Sunday to come pick them up. Or you can get them delivered via private carrier. Since you've met up with long time bee keeps months ahead of time you can expect one or more of them to be selling when the time is right. Order in advance and have all your equipment ready! Not only will you help support a possible mentor you save the girls all the stress of being boxed up and hauled hundreds of miles. \nA package of bees is the cheapest and consists of a three frames with brood (eggs, larva), nurse bees, worker bees and a queen.\nA nucleus (aka "nuc") will be five frames of bees. The more the merrier so this is most common for people to start with.\nOf course you can also find a complete hive for sale and if you have an experienced inspector check it out then it has the optimal chances to survive and provide you honey soonest.\nOne more thing; it's highly recommended that you begin with two hives so you can observe the differences in them and have a better success rate.\n\nAll said you can expect to spend close to a thousand dollars and wait months before you get that first jar of honey. This is not a hobby for impatient folks but it is a fascinating one.\n\nSince starting I have learned to feed bees, eaten honey from my own hive, what pests and diseases to check for, captured a swarm of bees from inside someone's wall, made new friends, been stunned by loss and learned to build basic parts. I've ditched the gloves and just let the bees walk on my hands while I inspect the hive for health and monitor honey and pollen stores.\n\nswarm capture pics | .\n------------ | -------------\nhttps://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-Kyb9C7gBuDY/V5gyadnMmTI/AAAAAAAASDg/m-iycBQZnY0-ngSe6p3dgP2hJ54zcsQTACL0B/w588-h331-no/swarmCapture1.jpg | https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Dd6sZVh1Z8w/V5gya25ajuI/AAAAAAAASDg/hKQS8USbcns3mXfMsQEqkR9QocK73zsZwCL0B/w588-h331-no/swarmCapture2.jpg \nI literally just scooped bees out of a wall cavity and dumped them into this box. And another box and another.| Then poured them into an empty hive! After closing it up I let all the stragglers find their way to the new home.\n\n\n\n\nIf you've made it this far then you're ready to get out to the nearest club to learn more. Best of luck!\n\n\nAsk Me Anything", - "category": "bees", - "children": 5, - "created": "2016-07-27T05:08:27", - "curator_payout_value": "0.108 HBD", - "depth": 0, - "is_paidout": true, - "json_metadata": { -

Many people ask themselves the question of how bees make honey. Many people use Google to find out. And I will tell you simply and clearly. Read it carefully.\nhttp://img11.nnm.me/c/5/1/2/3/780b4e8a7df6f83e03267d90676.jpg\nImage Source\n\n## How bees make honey?\n\nHoney flow \u2013 the basic direction of activity of the bees. All the efforts of the nest, collecting and harvesting of honey products. Individual family members have different functions, however, their common goal is Honey.\n\n### The duties of the bees family: \n\n- search for new sources of pollen and nectar;\n\n- the production of honey and transport it to the hive;\n\n- production of wax and the construction of hundreds of reservoirs for honey mass;\n\n- the packaging of honey in the cells of the honeycomb;\n\n- create new members the Queen bee of the bees family to the future honey flow;\n\n- defence reserves of honey, brood and bee Queen.\nhttp://p4elovodam.ru/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/stroiat-sota.jpg\nImage Source\n\n## The collection of nectar\n\nThe whole process of making honey starts with the collection of nectar. Only the air warms up to 12 degrees, the insects Wake up from their slumber and begin the first cleansing flights, getting rid of cold outside fecal accumulation. How bees make honey only when the first honey plants bloom, have winged workers have enough time to prepare for the season of honey (cleaning the hive, honeycomb, and frame check).\n\nWhat flowers are in bloom, the colony learns from scouts that deal exclusively with those that patrol the area in search of lawns with flowers. Once they find them, using special signaling dance will tell the whole family. A swarm of miners excited and ready to fly to the object. Was headed by the scout bees fly to the honey-gathering place and begin production of nectar and pollen.\n\n## How bees collect nectar ?\nAbout it, you'll look in this video:\nhttps://youtu.be/3fCvkNuUBiQ\n\n## The process of honey production\n\nThe obtained from bees nectar are distributed working bees : one part of it goes to feed the larvae and the honey.\nhttp://www.kartinki24.ru/uploads/gallery/main/312/kartinki24_insects_bees_0019.jpg\nImage Source\n\nHow bees make honey, is a complex, unique process: \n\n- first, bees have long and carefully to chew the nectar. At this time it is actively fermented. Sugar breaks down into glucose and fructose, the substance becomes more digestible. In addition, the saliva of the bee has bactericidal action disinfects nectar and honey derived from it, the longer it is stored;\n\n- ready to chew and sweetness unfolds on a pre-prepared cell. The cells are filled about 2 thirds;\n\n- now the main task \u2013 to accelerate the evaporation of excess moisture. For this, insects flap their wings, raising the temperature in the hive. Gradually, the moisture evaporates and forms a viscous syrup, consisting of 75-80% glucose and fructose and 5% sucrose (the same percentage of Sugars in honey because of its easily digestible);\n\n- a cell of sealed honey wax tubes and left to Mature. In test tubes with wax, also contains enzymes in bee saliva that further disinfect the cells and prevents liquefaction and fermentation of the finished product.\n## How Do Bees Make Honey?\nThis video about it!\nhttps://youtu.be/nZlEjDLJCmg\n\nI like bees and honey. \n\nThank you for your attention!\n\n@kental with you!\n\nLet's learn beekeeping together!\n\nFollow me If you want to learn more about beekeeping!

An example would be that an individual human is composed of cells which are composed of atoms. The individual human is considered to be a whole human but that individual human is also a part of the human society making the individual part of a bigger whole. So the human being would be a good example of a holon but so would a node in a complex adaptive system.\n\nWhat are holonic systems?\n-------------------------\n\nIf we remember take bees as an example this time instead of humans then the holonic system would be the bee hive. The bee hive would be a representation of the societal governance structure of the bees that belong to the hive. The bees would be holons because they would be part of the hive due to the fact that they follow the rules of the hive. They cooperate between each other but are all subordinates to the rules of the hive which represents the whole. The bee hive represents a holonic system, as do ant colonies, swarms of birds, schools of fish.\n\n\nThe difference between pathological hierarchies and holonic hierarchies\n=======================================================================\n\nIn a pathological hierarchy perhaps one individual or one node in the network assumes the role of the \u201cwhole\u201d. This individual might consider him or herself to be the ruler, the number 1, the head authority, who must coerce and control everyone below them. This structure typically takes the shape of a rigid pyramid where the decision making and thinking typically comes from the head authority, with limited room for individuality below.\n\n>Holacracy embeds a generative mix of autonomy and cooperation in a flexible fabric of holonic design constitutional rules. It constitutes a new operating system for organizations that regulate the individual/group dynamics to eliminate on one side the possibility of capture via power games, and on the other side, the inherent chaos characteristic of \u201cleaderless,\u201d decentralized organizations.\n\n \nIn a holonic system of governance there is a system for generating rules to provide order. So for instance in the case of virtual governance the nodes on the network can all run the same software, the same configurations, and each changing of the configurations of each node in the network the rules for the network can change in collaborative fashion. Roles and rules are set collectively and collaboratively.\n\n>Every participant in a holacracy is a sensor for what is going on, and each plays a role in identifying the tensions in a timely way while taking active steps to resolve them. Effectiveness and resistance to capture are achieved by enhancing the power of collective decision locally via procedures such as: \u201cAfter taking Individual Action, a Part-ner should tell any affected Role about it, and, on their request, initi-ate actions to resolve any Tension created by the Individual Action or refrain from taking this Individual Action again in the future.\u201d\n\nReference\n\nUlieru, M.

Honey is a great reason, as there is nothing that beats your own homemade honey, but there are other things the bees also produce. For example, they produce beeswax, which you can use to make your own candles and beauty products. Pollination is also a good reason to have bees, as if you have a small garden it can produce lots of products due to the large amount of bees that will pollinate it. A final reason to do some beekeeping is that bees are very independent, and do not require a lot of maintenance. However, there are a few cons to look into as well. The first, and most major one is probably the fact that bees can sting. Another issue is the cost of supplies, and sometimes when beekeeping, the first year does not go very well.\n\nhttps://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2013/08/07/20/13/bee-170551_960_720.jpg\n\nSo, let's get started! But before we do that, make sure that you check the local laws. Some places do not allow beekeeping. Also, know that bees take the quickest path from one location to another, known as a beeline, and that they may defecate in midair. When choosing a place to put a hive, try to make it in an open space, and let it get a little bit of sunlight (not too much). The best place to put a hive is in a sheltered area, not a hilltop as those are too windy. As you may know, nectar comes from different kinds of flowers. In fact, honey may taste very different depending on which kinds of flowers are the main source for the nectar that the bees bring back to the hive. Be careful about pesticides, as they can kill bees, and if they don't initially and the bee brings it back it can kill other bees or even the queen bee.\n\nhttp://www.almanac.com/sites/default/files/d6/images/bee-clothing.jpeg\n\nThere is quite a bit of equipment that you will need to start beekeeping. The first major piece of equipment is beekeeping clothing. You need to have proper protection from the bees, or else you may get stung. Generally, for a beginner, a veil is important, along with sting proof gloves and sting proof clothing that covers your entire body. Other than the hive, which I will discuss later, you will need something called a smoker, which produces smoke and help the bees calm down. You will also need something called a hive tool, which is used to loosen the frames and the boxes that bees are in. One of the last tools you will need is something called the uncapping knife, which is used uncap wax cells where the honey is stored. There are plenty of places that you can go to to purchase beekeeping equipment.\n\nAnother thing to consider before buying the bees themselves is a hive. The most common hive for beginners is a hive that uses the Langstroth method.\nhttp://www.almanac.com/sites/default/files/d6/images/langstrothHiveIllus.gif\nYou don't really need to worry about how to exactly build it though, as there are many kits for sale that are under $150. There are a few things to consider about the exact location of the hive. One important one is that it can be warmed by the morning sun. It should also be sheltered from the wind. A beehive needs to be near a source of water, as bees also need to drink. The beehive should be painted white or black, depending on where you live, but never with a toxic paint. To prevent bees from being a nuisance, there should be a fence around nearby street locations so that the bees fly over it.\n\nhttps://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2016/04/14/14/18/silk-bee-1328961_960_720.jpg\n\nAfter you have built a beehive, you will need to find some bees. Bees are very social creatures, and that is why it is important to know the basics of bee society. There are three main levels of bees: the worker, the drone, and the queen. Worker bees are females and are responsible for things like tending to the hive, its queen, guarding the hive's entrance, and collecting food. Drones are the males, and the only thing they need to do is mate with the queen. The queen herself is responsible for the genetic traits found withing a colony. To get bees, you can go through the wild and search for clusters of bees called swarms. If these swarms are on a tree limb, it is best to cut the entire limb and gently shake the bees into a container. Bees on a flat surface can be guided with a piece of cardboard, or some smoke behind them. However, by getting these bees for free, they may have certain diseases or have poor genetic material, resulting in weak bees. You should also be careful with regards to property laws, as taking a beehive on someone else's property may be considered stealing.\n\nhttps://i.ytimg.com/vi/eFqrbPdZuTA/maxresdefault.jpg\n\nThere are two main ways in which you can buy bees, which are in a package or a nucleus. The package method comes stocked with some worker bees, a queen bee, and some sweet syrup for the bees to eat out of. Here is where you make an important decision: How to introduce the bees to the queen. There are two main methods, the indirect method and the direct method. In the indirect method, the bees eat their way through food to get to the queen and slowly get used to her. This method is safer but may take longer. The direct method is to let out the queen bee directly into the hive, but the bees may attack her and destroy the hive. However, if the bees do not attack her, or the queen survives the attack, it may be faster than the indirect method, but it is also more risky. The other kind of thing that you can buy is a nucleus, which is already a small, fully functioning hive. You may, however, run into the fact that the queen is a weak or old queen, resulting in poor honey production and weak bees.\n\nhttps://www.farminguk.com/images/News/20600_1.jpg\n\nBefore you can start harvesting the liquid-gold that bees make, you need to know about some diseases that bees can catch. Here are the most common ones: Varroa Mites, which are parasites that attack both the larvae and adult bees. A medicine called Apistan appears to work well on them. Foulbrood is a virus that can deform and kill sealed broods of honeybees. CCD, or colony collapse disorder, is when bees just start leaving the hive. There is no cure for it, but some researchers have found that it is caused by both of fungus and a certain virus being present. When winter comes, you may want to wrap up your beehive, but make sure that the bees are not literally trapped in the hive.\n\nhttps://zeebeeman.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/honey-harvest.jpg\n\nSo, now you have the bees, which means that you have honey. Before you start harvesting honey by yourself, it is recommended that you go out with an expert for a few times to get the hang of it. Generally, there is a basic process of collecting honey. You need to make sure that you use small, gentle movement instead of large ones when collecting honey. The first step is get the bees off of the supers (a special layer in the bee hive). Try not to use smoke, as this may affect the taste of the honey. The next step is to remove the supers, and get the honey out of them. This can be done by uncapping the wax on the combs, or by purchasing a special extractor or centrifuge to make it easier. After this is done, you should strain the honey through cheesecloth to remove excess wax. Keep the honey in a settling tank to allow air bubbles to go up and bring foreign object with them, making those objects easier to remove. Then, you will need to skim off the foam. After you figure out which temperature you can store the honey at, you can start bottling it and then start selling it!\n\nI hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial.

\n\nHave you seen @robinhoodwhale's teaser intro post?\n\nThe basic idea, as I understand it, is to build out a new whale whose voting tastes and curation habits are determined by a group of people, a hive mind, instead of a single individual. I find this idea fascinating and wanted to support it while also challenging myself to write my own bot in PHP. The bot monitors @robinhoodwhale's voting activity and, if there's a new vote, goes ahead and votes on that same post using piston. The idea being, as more people vote up what @robinhoodwhale votes on, the more curation rewards @robinhoodwhale will make and the more visibility those posts will get (making @robinhoodwhale even more valuable to the community).\n\nI worked on the CopyCatVoter bot yesterday and had it running all night.

I'm doing this to conserve some voting power for people in my feed, but will probably change that up based on how active I plan to be on Steemit for a given time period.\n\nAll the code for this is on Github here: https://github.com/lukestokes/php-steem-tools. The CopyCatVoter code is here and the code to run it is currently in a test folder. This is basically my embarrassing prototype sandbox play code, but I'm putting it out there publicly in case anyone else wants to play with it also. You'll need to be able to run php and have piston configured with your posting key and have no password on your piston wallet (I hear from @xeroc some changes will be coming in the future to allow for ENV variable for this).\n\nSo why did I do this instead of just using my account at https://streemian.com/ and its curation trail feature? Well, mainly because I wanted to challenge myself. I really like the idea of having my own bot I can tweak and adjust, almost like a pet. I'm already thinking of improvements to make, such as ensuring it will unvote a post if @robinhoodwhale removes a vote.\n\nAlso, I like to have the output available for me to review. I'm not one to automate social media activities, so it took a while for me to warm up to the idea of trusting others to curate good content. I had to trust the hive mind to promote content which will benefit Steemit as a platform. With it running locally, I can easily review the posts and still use that 24 hour window to remove my vote if it's something I don't personally think is beneficial to the network or if it is contrary to my subjective opinion of what I \"like.\"\n\nIf you want to know more about @robinhoodwhale, give them a follow. You can review the list of posts they've already voted for in this spreadsheet which is updated in real time, as far as I understand. Shout out to @kyriacos for the awesome artwork and the robinhood / robinhood-links chat channels.\n\nI hope you're having a great weekend!\n**Steem On**\n[![LukeStokes01712.png](https://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/08/14/LukeStokes01712.png)](https://steemit.com/@lukestokes)", + "category": "robinhoodwhale", + "children": 45, + "created": "2016-08-28T18:33:15", "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", "depth": 0, "is_paidout": false, "json_metadata": { "image": [ - "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/32/Bee-apis.jpg" + "https://s22.postimg.org/3nc2dom01/steemwhale.jpg", + "https://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/08/14/LukeStokes01712.png" + ], + "links": [ + "https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@robinhoodwhale/hi-i-am-robinhood-whale-and-here-is-my-story-from-the-blockchain-folklore", + "https://github.com/lukestokes/php-steem-tools", + "https://github.com/lukestokes/php-steem-tools/blob/master/src/SteemTools/Bots/CopyCatVoter.php", + "https://github.com/lukestokes/php-steem-tools/blob/master/tests/Bots/CopyCatVoterTest.php", + "https://streemian.com/", + "https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11UkN21t27uG9Fo_vRjX8lKasXOU0xIEL4AviCvlMMNw/edit#gid=0", + "https://steemit.com/@kyriacos", + "https://steemit.chat/channel/robinhood", + "https://steemit.chat/channel/robinhood-links" ], "tags": [ - "tutorial", - "steemit", - "steem" + "robinhoodwhale", + "bots", + "curation", + "automation", + "php" + ], + "users": [ + "robinhoodwhale", + "xeroc" ] }, "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", - "net_rshares": 64472276800, - "payout": 0.034, - "payout_at": "2016-08-23T16:34:09", - "pending_payout_value": "0.034 HBD", + "net_rshares": 12867959210625, + "payout": 24.069, + "payout_at": "2016-09-04T18:33:15", + "pending_payout_value": "24.069 HBD", "percent_hbd": 10000, - "permlink": "what-is-beekeeping-all-about", - "post_id": 836800, + "permlink": "trusting-the-hive-mind-building-my-own-voting-bot-for-robinhoodwhale", + "post_id": 1030456, "reblogs": 0, "replies": [], "stats": { "flag_weight": 0.0, "gray": false, "hide": false, - "total_votes": 10 + "total_votes": 174 }, - "title": "What is Beekeeping All About?", - "updated": "2016-08-16T16:34:09", - "url": "/tutorial/@joshglen/what-is-beekeeping-all-about" + "title": "Trusting the Hive Mind: Building My Own Voting Bot for Robinhoodwhale", + "updated": "2016-08-28T21:11:06", + "url": "/robinhoodwhale/@lukestokes/trusting-the-hive-mind-building-my-own-voting-bot-for-robinhoodwhale" } ] diff --git a/tests/api_tests/hivemind/tavern/search-api_patterns/find_text/hive_relevance_1.pat.json b/tests/api_tests/hivemind/tavern/search-api_patterns/find_text/hive_relevance_1.pat.json index be97d69cf969d30b715cc2ada53015ca35fdb1b6..048c3ce788a2fa1ce7fabf409b1aa7eca8dfaf8b 100644 --- a/tests/api_tests/hivemind/tavern/search-api_patterns/find_text/hive_relevance_1.pat.json +++ b/tests/api_tests/hivemind/tavern/search-api_patterns/find_text/hive_relevance_1.pat.json @@ -2,48 +2,86 @@ { "active_votes": [ { - "rshares": 56815342, - "voter": "madodel" + "rshares": 6878586295, + "voter": "manoami" + }, + { + "rshares": 32790372645, + "voter": "biophil" + }, + { + "rshares": 8177100479, + "voter": "shla-rafia" + }, + { + "rshares": 792782029, + "voter": "jsteck" + }, + { + "rshares": 3837675045, + "voter": "joshglen" + }, + { + "rshares": 165494691, + "voter": "pulpably" + }, + { + "rshares": 2893714979, + "voter": "spetey" + }, + { + "rshares": 74072122, + "voter": "runridefly" + }, + { + "rshares": 8559062169, + "voter": "darrantrute" + }, + { + "rshares": 303416346, + "voter": "funkywanderer" } ], - "author": "madodel", + "author": "joshglen", "author_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "author_reputation": 25.0, + "author_reputation": 55.38, "beneficiaries": [], "blacklists": [], - "body": "Think Beek Urban Beekeeping in the Tropics\n\nTop Bar Hive V.S.

Honey is a great reason, as there is nothing that beats your own homemade honey, but there are other things the bees also produce. For example, they produce beeswax, which you can use to make your own candles and beauty products. Pollination is also a good reason to have bees, as if you have a small garden it can produce lots of products due to the large amount of bees that will pollinate it. A final reason to do some beekeeping is that bees are very independent, and do not require a lot of maintenance. However, there are a few cons to look into as well. The first, and most major one is probably the fact that bees can sting. Another issue is the cost of supplies, and sometimes when beekeeping, the first year does not go very well.\n\nhttps://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2013/08/07/20/13/bee-170551_960_720.jpg\n\nSo, let's get started! But before we do that, make sure that you check the local laws. Some places do not allow beekeeping. Also, know that bees take the quickest path from one location to another, known as a beeline, and that they may defecate in midair. When choosing a place to put a hive, try to make it in an open space, and let it get a little bit of sunlight (not too much). The best place to put a hive is in a sheltered area, not a hilltop as those are too windy. As you may know, nectar comes from different kinds of flowers. In fact, honey may taste very different depending on which kinds of flowers are the main source for the nectar that the bees bring back to the hive. Be careful about pesticides, as they can kill bees, and if they don't initially and the bee brings it back it can kill other bees or even the queen bee.\n\nhttp://www.almanac.com/sites/default/files/d6/images/bee-clothing.jpeg\n\nThere is quite a bit of equipment that you will need to start beekeeping. The first major piece of equipment is beekeeping clothing. You need to have proper protection from the bees, or else you may get stung. Generally, for a beginner, a veil is important, along with sting proof gloves and sting proof clothing that covers your entire body. Other than the hive, which I will discuss later, you will need something called a smoker, which produces smoke and help the bees calm down. You will also need something called a hive tool, which is used to loosen the frames and the boxes that bees are in. One of the last tools you will need is something called the uncapping knife, which is used uncap wax cells where the honey is stored. There are plenty of places that you can go to to purchase beekeeping equipment.\n\nAnother thing to consider before buying the bees themselves is a hive. The most common hive for beginners is a hive that uses the Langstroth method.\nhttp://www.almanac.com/sites/default/files/d6/images/langstrothHiveIllus.gif\nYou don't really need to worry about how to exactly build it though, as there are many kits for sale that are under $150. There are a few things to consider about the exact location of the hive. One important one is that it can be warmed by the morning sun. It should also be sheltered from the wind. A beehive needs to be near a source of water, as bees also need to drink. The beehive should be painted white or black, depending on where you live, but never with a toxic paint. To prevent bees from being a nuisance, there should be a fence around nearby street locations so that the bees fly over it.\n\nhttps://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2016/04/14/14/18/silk-bee-1328961_960_720.jpg\n\nAfter you have built a beehive, you will need to find some bees. Bees are very social creatures, and that is why it is important to know the basics of bee society. There are three main levels of bees: the worker, the drone, and the queen. Worker bees are females and are responsible for things like tending to the hive, its queen, guarding the hive's entrance, and collecting food. Drones are the males, and the only thing they need to do is mate with the queen. The queen herself is responsible for the genetic traits found withing a colony. To get bees, you can go through the wild and search for clusters of bees called swarms. If these swarms are on a tree limb, it is best to cut the entire limb and gently shake the bees into a container. Bees on a flat surface can be guided with a piece of cardboard, or some smoke behind them. However, by getting these bees for free, they may have certain diseases or have poor genetic material, resulting in weak bees. You should also be careful with regards to property laws, as taking a beehive on someone else's property may be considered stealing.\n\nhttps://i.ytimg.com/vi/eFqrbPdZuTA/maxresdefault.jpg\n\nThere are two main ways in which you can buy bees, which are in a package or a nucleus. The package method comes stocked with some worker bees, a queen bee, and some sweet syrup for the bees to eat out of. Here is where you make an important decision: How to introduce the bees to the queen. There are two main methods, the indirect method and the direct method. In the indirect method, the bees eat their way through food to get to the queen and slowly get used to her. This method is safer but may take longer. The direct method is to let out the queen bee directly into the hive, but the bees may attack her and destroy the hive. However, if the bees do not attack her, or the queen survives the attack, it may be faster than the indirect method, but it is also more risky. The other kind of thing that you can buy is a nucleus, which is already a small, fully functioning hive. You may, however, run into the fact that the queen is a weak or old queen, resulting in poor honey production and weak bees.\n\nhttps://www.farminguk.com/images/News/20600_1.jpg\n\nBefore you can start harvesting the liquid-gold that bees make, you need to know about some diseases that bees can catch. Here are the most common ones: Varroa Mites, which are parasites that attack both the larvae and adult bees. A medicine called Apistan appears to work well on them. Foulbrood is a virus that can deform and kill sealed broods of honeybees. CCD, or colony collapse disorder, is when bees just start leaving the hive. There is no cure for it, but some researchers have found that it is caused by both of fungus and a certain virus being present. When winter comes, you may want to wrap up your beehive, but make sure that the bees are not literally trapped in the hive.\n\nhttps://zeebeeman.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/honey-harvest.jpg\n\nSo, now you have the bees, which means that you have honey. Before you start harvesting honey by yourself, it is recommended that you go out with an expert for a few times to get the hang of it. Generally, there is a basic process of collecting honey. You need to make sure that you use small, gentle movement instead of large ones when collecting honey. The first step is get the bees off of the supers (a special layer in the bee hive). Try not to use smoke, as this may affect the taste of the honey. The next step is to remove the supers, and get the honey out of them. This can be done by uncapping the wax on the combs, or by purchasing a special extractor or centrifuge to make it easier. After this is done, you should strain the honey through cheesecloth to remove excess wax. Keep the honey in a settling tank to allow air bubbles to go up and bring foreign object with them, making those objects easier to remove. Then, you will need to skim off the foam. After you figure out which temperature you can store the honey at, you can start bottling it and then start selling it!\n\nI hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial.

The best place to put a hive is in a sheltered area, not a hilltop as those are too windy. As you may know, nectar comes from different kinds of flowers. In fact, honey may taste very different depending on which kinds of flowers are the main source for the nectar that the bees bring back to the hive. Be careful about pesticides, as they can kill bees, and if they don't initially and the bee brings it back it can kill other bees or even the queen bee.\n\nhttp://www.almanac.com/sites/default/files/d6/images/bee-clothing.jpeg\n\nThere is quite a bit of equipment that you will need to start beekeeping. The first major piece of equipment is beekeeping clothing. You need to have proper protection from the bees, or else you may get stung. Generally, for a beginner, a veil is important, along with sting proof gloves and sting proof clothing that covers your entire body. Other than the hive, which I will discuss later, you will need something called a smoker, which produces smoke and help the bees calm down. You will also need something called a hive tool, which is used to loosen the frames and the boxes that bees are in. One of the last tools you will need is something called the uncapping knife, which is used uncap wax cells where the honey is stored. There are plenty of places that you can go to to purchase beekeeping equipment.\n\nAnother thing to consider before buying the bees themselves is a hive. The most common hive for beginners is a hive that uses the Langstroth method.\nhttp://www.almanac.com/sites/default/files/d6/images/langstrothHiveIllus.gif\nYou don't really need to worry about how to exactly build it though, as there are many kits for sale that are under $150. There are a few things to consider about the exact location of the hive. One important one is that it can be warmed by the morning sun. It should also be sheltered from the wind. A beehive needs to be near a source of water, as bees also need to drink. The beehive should be painted white or black, depending on where you live, but never with a toxic paint. To prevent bees from being a nuisance, there should be a fence around nearby street locations so that the bees fly over it.\n\nhttps://pixabay.com/static/uploads/photo/2016/04/14/14/18/silk-bee-1328961_960_720.jpg\n\nAfter you have built a beehive, you will need to find some bees. Bees are very social creatures, and that is why it is important to know the basics of bee society. There are three main levels of bees: the worker, the drone, and the queen. Worker bees are females and are responsible for things like tending to the hive, its queen, guarding the hive's entrance, and collecting food. Drones are the males, and the only thing they need to do is mate with the queen. The queen herself is responsible for the genetic traits found withing a colony. To get bees, you can go through the wild and search for clusters of bees called swarms. If these swarms are on a tree limb, it is best to cut the entire limb and gently shake the bees into a container. Bees on a flat surface can be guided with a piece of cardboard, or some smoke behind them. However, by getting these bees for free, they may have certain diseases or have poor genetic material, resulting in weak bees. You should also be careful with regards to property laws, as taking a beehive on someone else's property may be considered stealing.\n\nhttps://i.ytimg.com/vi/eFqrbPdZuTA/maxresdefault.jpg\n\nThere are two main ways in which you can buy bees, which are in a package or a nucleus. The package method comes stocked with some worker bees, a queen bee, and some sweet syrup for the bees to eat out of. Here is where you make an important decision: How to introduce the bees to the queen. There are two main methods, the indirect method and the direct method. In the indirect method, the bees eat their way through food to get to the queen and slowly get used to her. This method is safer but may take longer. The direct method is to let out the queen bee directly into the hive, but the bees may attack her and destroy the hive. However, if the bees do not attack her, or the queen survives the attack, it may be faster than the indirect method, but it is also more risky. The other kind of thing that you can buy is a nucleus, which is already a small, fully functioning hive. You may, however, run into the fact that the queen is a weak or old queen, resulting in poor honey production and weak bees.\n\nhttps://www.farminguk.com/images/News/20600_1.jpg\n\nBefore you can start harvesting the liquid-gold that bees make, you need to know about some diseases that bees can catch. Here are the most common ones: Varroa Mites, which are parasites that attack both the larvae and adult bees. A medicine called Apistan appears to work well on them. Foulbrood is a virus that can deform and kill sealed broods of honeybees. CCD, or colony collapse disorder, is when bees just start leaving the hive. There is no cure for it, but some researchers have found that it is caused by both of fungus and a certain virus being present. When winter comes, you may want to wrap up your beehive, but make sure that the bees are not literally trapped in the hive.\n\nhttps://zeebeeman.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/honey-harvest.jpg\n\nSo, now you have the bees, which means that you have honey. Before you start harvesting honey by yourself, it is recommended that you go out with an expert for a few times to get the hang of it. Generally, there is a basic process of collecting honey. You need to make sure that you use small, gentle movement instead of large ones when collecting honey. The first step is get the bees off of the supers (a special layer in the bee hive). Try not to use smoke, as this may affect the taste of the honey. The next step is to remove the supers, and get the honey out of them. This can be done by uncapping the wax on the combs, or by purchasing a special extractor or centrifuge to make it easier. After this is done, you should strain the honey through cheesecloth to remove excess wax. Keep the honey in a settling tank to allow air bubbles to go up and bring foreign object with them, making those objects easier to remove. Then, you will need to skim off the foam. After you figure out which temperature you can store the honey at, you can start bottling it and then start selling it!\n\nI hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial.

Feeling stylish and always a little sexy in my beekeepers garb, I grab my smoker in one hand and my hive tool in the other and bounce like Tigger out into my beloved bee-yard.  The apiary is no longer the two original hives -- expansion was inevitable. On this day, we are sitting pretty at 7 hives.   Temperatures reaching into the 90's with some notable humidity, I feel simple pure joy as I remove the bricks from the top of the hive and pry off the first of the hive covers.  I'm immediately met with a whiff of a gentle sweet smell and hear the simple quiet buzz of the girls at work -- as a couple of crabby ladies pop out and ping off my veil, informing me that I'm in their space.  I tell myself \"it is ok, settle down, all is well\".  After a few gentle puffs of cool smoke we all seem to calm down a bit. 

\n

Today, I'm checking in on a brand new queen that I grafted (created) just six weeks ago.  Four weeks later, I noted eggs and larva in this hive, so I know the queen emerged and mated.  Today's work is simple... find this queen and mark her -- always assuming that she is still alive today!

\n

 That's the queen -- dead-center

\n

Now, the bee \"authorities\" all claim that you should gently hold the queen between thumb and finger and then very carefully place a small spot of paint on her thorax.  Let it dry and then release her back into the colony. The color is specific to the last 2 digits of the year.  Pretty simple!  What the experts don't seem to mention is that you must search among 50,000 bees buzzing about -- grumpy and stressed in the late summer heat during the dearth of late nectar.  Now that I have had the hive open for a few minutes, everything feels frantic.  Sweat is dripping from every pore in my body while I search frame by frame looking for that one special bug.  I find my mind racing.  Where the heck is that she?  As time passes, the open hive is defenseless to the other bees in the bee-yard and for miles around -- causing the girls to become more and more feisty and defensive as I become more impatient with the task at hand.

\n

\"Oh yippy skippy, I found her!\"  This is so much better than finding Waldo (although I rock at that too).  I move the frame she's crawling on into a special box to protect her (mostly from myself) for the moment.  Put the hive back together and toss on a cover.  That should keep the other bees from robbing the hive for a few moments.  With the paint pen readied, it is time to take on the task of placing a dot on her back.  I, once again, try to locate the queen.  Darn this lady has speed - moving all over the frame and ducking through holes in the comb arriving on the opposite side.  

\n

\n

I spend some time trying to corner and catch her but fail as she flies off the frame and runs (breaking my 100M dash pace) under the hive.  The \"experts\" don't mention that the fat plump mated queen can still fly!  Oh no, what have I done?! Tears well up. But realize my friends, this is no ordinary queen, she's one that I grafted from a colony with a queen who I had over-wintered not once but twice! She's the only queen to emerge and mate from the 36 cells I thought I successfully grafted back in late June (The other grafts were a complete fail after taking an unplanned dive off the deck -- but that too is another story.  My Bad!)

\n

Now, sadly, I must admit that this is not the first time I have had a queen who had a story to tell . . . but I digress... I carefully drop the frame, sputter a few less than positive words to myself and without a thought lean the entire hive to one side in hopes of finding my Queen. Now I know what you\u2019re thinking -- \"BAD IDEA!\", \"DON'T DO THAT!\".   Trust me, I thought that too, but I needed find that queen, as without her the colony would dwindle and die.  I had no replacement, no plan B.

\n

\n

Awesome sauce! I found her - a REAL RESCUE.  Scooping her up in my gloved hand and leaning the hive back down into its normal position, I commenced my attempt to mark her with a \"small\" white dot ... well it turned out she got herself a big fat splotch! (Serves her right!) Then acting like nothing unusual ever happened (which in some ways is was no different than any other bee-yard adventure), I released her into the hive, replaced the missing frame and put the inner & outer cover back in place. 

\n

Feeling fairly good with the overall final outcome (queen still alive, MARKED and in the hive), I collected my beekeeping stuff and snuffed the smoker.  Just another fun day of awesome skillfulness in the bee-yard.

\n

=========================================================================

\n

I love the Doolittle Method for grafting (combined with the use of a Cloake board)!  Don't get faked out, it is not \"do little\" but a name for the method of grafting/\u201ccreating\u201d queens.  

\n
    \n
  1. Choose carefully from a frame of eggs and larva, selecting the tiniest larva in hopes it is < 24 hours old AND floating it in a pool of delicious royal jelly.  
    2. \n
  2. Once the grafts are selected and delicately scooped up (careful not to flip the larva and block the sphericals/\"breathing tubes\" -- drowning them in the process), place them in plastic queen cells on a grafting bar fitted into a frame.  
    3. \n
  3. Inserted the frame into a queen-less hive that has been outfitted and manipulated for several days with the use of a Cloake Board.  
    4. \n
  4. With the proper planning and manipulation, tens of thousands of nurse bees fill the top hive box and will feed the grafts royal jelly while draw out the new queen cells, and care for the developing queens over the following 11 days.

\"Oh yippy skippy, I found her!\"  This is so much better than finding Waldo (although I rock at that too).  I move the frame she's crawling on into a special box to protect her (mostly from myself) for the moment.  Put the hive back together and toss on a cover.  That should keep the other bees from robbing the hive for a few moments.  With the paint pen readied, it is time to take on the task of placing a dot on her back.  I, once again, try to locate the queen.  Darn this lady has speed - moving all over the frame and ducking through holes in the comb arriving on the opposite side.  

\n

\n

I spend some time trying to corner and catch her but fail as she flies off the frame and runs (breaking my 100M dash pace) under the hive.  The \"experts\" don't mention that the fat plump mated queen can still fly!  Oh no, what have I done?! Tears well up. But realize my friends, this is no ordinary queen, she's one that I grafted from a colony with a queen who I had over-wintered not once but twice! She's the only queen to emerge and mate from the 36 cells I thought I successfully grafted back in late June (The other grafts were a complete fail after taking an unplanned dive off the deck -- but that too is another story.  My Bad!)

\n

Now, sadly, I must admit that this is not the first time I have had a queen who had a story to tell . . . but I digress... I carefully drop the frame, sputter a few less than positive words to myself and without a thought lean the entire hive to one side in hopes of finding my Queen. Now I know what you\u2019re thinking -- \"BAD IDEA!\", \"DON'T DO THAT!\".   Trust me, I thought that too, but I needed find that queen, as without her the colony would dwindle and die.  I had no replacement, no plan B.

\n

\n

Awesome sauce! I found her - a REAL RESCUE.  Scooping her up in my gloved hand and leaning the hive back down into its normal position, I commenced my attempt to mark her with a \"small\" white dot ... well it turned out she got herself a big fat splotch! (Serves her right!) Then acting like nothing unusual ever happened (which in some ways is was no different than any other bee-yard adventure), I released her into the hive, replaced the missing frame and put the inner & outer cover back in place. 

\n

Feeling fairly good with the overall final outcome (queen still alive, MARKED and in the hive), I collected my beekeeping stuff and snuffed the smoker.  Just another fun day of awesome skillfulness in the bee-yard.

\n

I love the Doolittle Method for grafting (combined with the use of a Cloake board)!  Don't get faked out, it is not \"do little\" but a name for the method of grafting/\u201ccreating\u201d queens.  

\n
    \n
  1. Choose carefully from a frame of eggs and larva, selecting the tiniest larva in hopes it is < 24 hours old AND floating it in a pool of delicious royal jelly.  
    2. \n
  2. Once the grafts are selected and delicately scooped up (careful not to flip the larva and block the sphericals/\"breathing tubes\" -- drowning them in the process), place them in plastic queen cells on a grafting bar fitted into a frame.  
    3. \n
  3. Inserted the frame into a queen-less hive that has been outfitted and manipulated for several days with the use of a Cloake Board.  
    4. \n
  4. With the proper planning and manipulation, tens of thousands of nurse bees fill the top hive box and will feed the grafts royal jelly while draw out the new queen cells, and care for the developing queens over the following 11 days.

 SteemHouse Welcomes New Bees! 

\n

We got our shipment in of bees in today! Finally! Now we can stop with all the inefficient, fake hand pollinating. You can't beat mother nature when it comes to anything in nature! 

\n

 There is a saying about busy bees and let me tell you, these bees started faster than any other bees we have ever had.  Usually, when we get a shipment of bees, we set the out in the Steemhouse, and I run thru the steps to get the hive ready. The last step is to open the little slider that allows the bees out of the hive. 

\n

 I usually sit and watch for any bee movement, and in about four or five minutes they will start to emerge. This time, I walked away for less than a minute and bees were lined up to get out of the hive, granted we often get bees during the colder months so that may slow them down a bit. 

\n
\n

 Let's just hope they keep up the enthusiasm and start some round the clock pollination!

\n
\n

 This is the box that holds the hive inside, these bees do not make honey, but they earn their keep just the same.  The hole that you see right in the center of the lid is the entrance and exit holes, the plastic slider moves up and you can set it to where the bees can move in and out freely or just enter the hive and stay there. This comes in handy if you ever want to relocate the hive. If you were to move the hive while the bees are out, they would be lost. You would have a large swarm of bees hovering where the hive used to be. They have a great memory as far as the location of the hive, but no problem-solving skills to find the new location. 

\n


\n

I shot some video of me setting up the hive and it is awful, it's hard to shoot and work the box with only one hand, so please forgive me for the crap quality, but I think it covers most of it.

\n

\n

 And as I said earlier, a little video of the bees ready to get out and work! Hope you enjoy them!

 Quick update on the tomatoes, last week I showed you a few new baby tomatoes. this week they have grown a little bit, getting close to golf ball size. So now with the bees in, we should see new tomatoes start to pack on the vines. Hold on tight folks, the fun is just starting!

\n
\n
\n

 

\n

Sorry for the lack of updates, but things are really moving right now, I'll try to get more updates in as we go.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you come back!

Technology could be used to differentiate fish caught sustainably to those caught illegally, or linked to human rights abuses

\n

A new digital technology has been trialled to track fish from trawler to the supermarket in a breakthrough that could help stop human rights abuses and illegal fishing.The technology \u2013 called blockchain and first used to power the currency Bitcoin \u2013 is expected to revolutionise the finance, property and food sectors replacing traditional contracts, paperwork and identification methods.Blockchain is a digital ledger or record of information that is accessible to everyone. In this case it details the origins of fish and allows anyone to see where the fish was caught, processed and sold on. It does not stop illegal fishing on its own but it opens up the supply chain for anyone to scrutinise.With the seafood industry notorious for human rights abuses and illegal fishing, campaigners hope the technology, piloted by a UK-based company Provenance, could help retailers, manufacturers and restaurants prove the origins of their fish.\u201cBuilding in mechanisms to deliver transparency from net to plate is central to eradicating illegal, unsustainable fishing and the human rights abuses that have plagued parts of the seafood production sector,\u201d said Steve Trent, executive director at the Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF).

\n

At present the buying and selling of seafood is tracked by paper records and tags on the fish. The new blockchain approach sees local fishermen send SMS messages to register their catch on the blockchain. This identification is then transferred to a supplier along with the catch, with any subsequent move, for example processing or tinning, also recorded.
\nThe information on the origin and supply chain journey of the fish can then be accessed and verified by end buyers and consumers in shops or restaurants using their smartphones, replacing the current printed communication and labels. 

\n

The technology has already sparked interest from food companies, with the Co-op Food group currently conducting its own trial with Provenance on fresh food products - expected to conclude later this year.Provenance founder Jessi Baker said that the technology currently adds a \u201cfew pence\u201d to the price of the final product so is likely to be used first on premium fish products, or even wine or olive oil. The cost will need to come down to \u201cpoints of a pence\u201d to be viable for canned and processed fish produce, she said. 

\n

\u201cWe are desperately in need of a solution,\u201d said Baker. \u201cWe want to help support fish that is caught sustainably and verify these claims down the chain to help drive the market for slavery-free fish. This pilot shows that complex, global supply chains can be made transparent by using blockchain technology.\u201dThe fish trial has been welcomed by Thai Union, the world\u2019s biggest tuna exporter, that has faced its own sustainability criticisms. Tesco stopped stocking its John West brand in July this year, citing the need for the fish company to ensure it was using sustainable sources of tuna.\u201cTraceability \u2013 which allows us to prove that our fish is caught legally and sustainably and that safe labour conditions are met throughout the supply chain - is vital if we are to interest consumers in the source of their tuna,\u201d said Dr Darian McBain, director of sustainability at Thai Union. 

\n

\u201cThe next challenges are building scalability so that traceability systems can operate across borders and certifying authorities, and educating consumers that it is worth paying more for sustainably-caught traceable fish where workers are paid a fair and decent wage,\u201d she said.Trent from EJF, cautioned that on its own the technology would not end abuses in the seafood sector. \u201cIt is also essential to understand and support the other actions and mechanisms that are needed to combat these abuses, including the role of effective enforcement actions and the application of strong, fair and transparent action in the courts to impose robust penalties,\u201d he said.

Before any procedure, dessalgue their dried meat, which usually comes to us consumers with too much salt to your saves. Cut the meat into large cubes of edge 5cm +/- each. Dip these cubes of dried meat in a container with water to the surface of the meat, covering the cubes. Keep this container in the refrigerator and replace your water every 2 hours, 3 to 4 times depending on how their meat is salty.\n\n### 2. To find out if your meat is too much or too little salt, just testing the water at the last and penultimate exchanges; if it is too salty, require more exchanges of cold water, if the water is only brackish, will be ready the meat to be manipulated.\n\n### 3. In a pressure cooker and over medium heat, saute onion and garlic in olive oil, leaving them brown. Add to this mixture the meat without water dessalgue, in order to seal (browning meat outside), while stirring occasionally.\n\n### 4. Add the wine, water and cover the pressure cooker, sealing it well. Lower the heat to the lowest setting and cook in pressure for about 30 minutes.\n\n### 5. Turn off the heat, allow the pressure out completely. Open the pot and see if the meat is well tender, otherwise return it to the fire, with the covered pot for a few minutes (10minutes, depending on how the meat in question is still hard).\n\n### 6. Once cooked meat and tender, remove all the liquid that came off the meat into another container and set aside.\n\n### 7. Close the pressure cooker with the meat cooked inside, and shake several times and vigorously. When you open the pressure cooker meat should be shredded completely. If not, close the pot again and repeat the procedure until the desired result.\n\n### 8. Transfer the meat with its broth to a small saucepan and deep, add pelati tomatoes, mix well, correct the salt if necessary, and leave on medium heat until the broth begins to reduce and refine. About 20 minutes. The more reduce broth, the flavor will be determined.\n\n\n\n## Polenta\n\n### Boil water in a deep pan and add low-temperature salt and fine corn flour gradually, stirring until it is full-bodied and creamy. Preferably, follow the \"proportion\" of water and cornmeal, and the \"method of preparation\" of the flour manufacturer to polenta to buy, after all there are differences in the composition of each of these industrialized corn mixtures! Porcione container or format you want to serve.\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png\n\n# About Me\n\n### In 2012 I began my cooking journey in Brasil and studied at \u201cSenac, Juiz de Fora\u201d, in Minas Gerais, developing my basic culinary techniques.\n\n### Later I worked in a local restaurant, and rose to a role in management, helping to increase the clientele base. I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; \u201cLe Cordon Bleu\u201d.\n\n### Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I\u2019m now based.\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Site ](https://gustavopasquini.com)\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Shop ](https://gustavopasquini-shop.com)\n\n> ### [Blog Post ](https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/15/polenta-with-ragu-meat-dry/)\n\n> ### [Recipe Site ](https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/wmp)\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------", + "category": "food", + "children": 2, + "created": "2016-09-15T12:27:30", + "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": false, + "json_metadata": { + "image": [ + "https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/untitled-design-22.png?w=1000", + "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png", + "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465" + ], + "links": [ + "https://gustavopasquini.com", + "https://gustavopasquini-shop.com", + "https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/15/polenta-with-ragu-meat-dry/", + "https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/wmp" + ], + "tags": [ + "food", + "health", + "recipes", + "curie", + "life" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 17276761050325, + "payout": 20.228, + "payout_at": "2016-09-22T12:27:30", + "pending_payout_value": "20.228 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "polenta-with-ragu-meat-dry", + "post_id": 1253260, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 28 + }, + "title": "Polenta with Ragu Meat Dry", + "updated": "2016-09-15T16:21:24", + "url": "/food/@gustavopasquini/polenta-with-ragu-meat-dry" + }, + { + "active_votes": [ + { + "rshares": 115875646943, + "voter": "anonymous" }, { -

News seems to be first released 2 hours ago 12:35 pm; Thursday, 15 September 2016.\n\n### News Articles:\n[CoinDesk](http://www.coindesk.com/ripple-blockchain-55-million-series-b/)\n[CNBC](http://www.cnbc.com/2016/09/15/google-backed-blockchain-start-up-ripple-raises-55-million-from-big-banks.html)\n[WSJ](http://www.wsj.com/articles/bitcoin-firm-ripple-gets-55-million-in-funding-1473944401)\n[Reuters ](http://in.reuters.com/article/tech-blockchain-ripple-idINL8N1BR24Z)\n\nAccording to the article linked above (CNBC) 'The start-up is currently working with 15 of the top 50 global banks including UBS and Santander.'\n\nNew and existing investors were involved in the new Ripple funding round. New investors included Accenture Ventures, SBI Holdings, SCB Digital Ventures, Standard Chartered PLC, and the investment arm of Thailand\u2019s Siam Commercial Bank. Existing investors that joined in this round included a Banco Santander SA venture fund, the venture arms of CME Group Inc. and Seagate Technology, and Venture 51.\n\nObviously this is good news for ripple with 55 Million accounting for 20-25% of their market cap before today's rally, the current price of XRP is 0.00001760 BTC and 2 hours ago it was trading for below 0.00001000 BTC, it has seen a large move already price wise although volume is still relatively small at this time, we could be in for an interesting time while this initial excitement settles in\n![](https://www.coinigy.com/assets/img/charts/57dab3f3.png)", - "category": "ripple", - "children": 10, - "created": "2016-09-15T14:58:21", + "body": "https://i.imgur.com/kkQjc0k.jpg\n\nWith Heroin addiction and death at its highest rates ever.. Why would the DEA ban an all natural plant that helps people who get off of Heroin? I had to SHARE this article because of hour bogus our fucked up country is.\n\n45 years AFTER the drug war was declared by President Richard Nixon, the United States leads the world in both recreational drug usage and incarceration rates. Heroin abuse rates continue to soar. Drug-related violence in our nation\u2019s cities and cartel wars in Latin America exact horrific tolls.\n\nAnd then there is the ever-present bully on the block, prescription drug abuse. More than two million Americans have become hooked on the pharmaceuticals that doctors prescribe to ease their pain. Opioids\u2014both legal and illicit\u2014killed a mind-boggling 28,647 people in 2014.\n\nBut not to worry: The Drug Enforcement Administration is on the case. \u201cTo avoid an imminent hazard to public safety,\u201d the agency said in a press release, it will be adding kratom, a medicinal herb that has been used safely in Southeast Asia for centuries, to its list of Schedule 1 substances, placing the popular botanical in a class with killers like heroin and cocaine at the end of September.\n\nWhy ban the mild-mannered tree leaf? Well, because the DEA claims it\u2019s an opioid with \u201cno currently accepted medical use.\u201d Wrong on both counts. Pharmacologists label kratom as an alkaloid, not an opioid. True, kratom stimulates certain opioid receptors in the brain. But then, so does drinking a glass of wine, or running a marathon.\n\nKratom is less habit-forming than classic opioids like heroin and the pharmaceutical oxycodone, and its impact on the brain is weaker and more selective. Nevertheless, the herb\u2019s ability to bind loosely with certain opioid receptors makes it a godsend for addicts who want to kick their habits. Kratom is currently helping wean thousands of Americans off illegal drugs and prescription pain relievers, without creating any dangerous long term dependency.\n\nThe powdered leaves are readily available from scores of herb sellers on the Internet. Since the ban was announced in late August, websites and social media have exploded with accounts from people who credit the plant with saving them from lives of addiction and chronic pain.\n\nTake, for example, Virginia native Susan Ash. She was using Suboxone to help cope with severe joint pain resulting from Lyme disease. \u201cMy life was ruled by the clock\u2014all I could think was, \u2018when do I take my next dose,'\u201d Ash says. Then someone suggested she try kratom to help kick her addiction to the prescription pain killer. \u201cIn two weeks time, I went from being a bed-bound invalid to a productive member of society again.\n\nShe founded the American Kratom Society in 2014 to help keep this herbal lifeline legal. Ash says that tens of thousands of people use kratom not just to help with chronic pain, but also to alleviate depression and to provide relief from PTSD. She strongly disputes that users like herself are simply exchanging one addictive drug for another.\n\n\u201cI have never had a craving for kratom,\u201d Ash says. \u201cYou can\u2019t compare it to even the mildest opiate. It simply won\u2019t get you high.\u201d\n\nWhat it might do, users say, is slightly tweak your mood. The leaves of the Mitragyna speciosa tree, a biological relative of coffee, have been chewed for centuries in Southeast Asia by farmers to increase their stamina. Kratom is gently euphoric and also relaxing\u2014think coffee without the jitters and sleeplessness. It is hard to take toxic levels of the herb, since larger doses induce nausea and vomiting.\n\nBut does it provide medical benefits? Dr. Walter Prozialeck, chair of the Department of Pharmacology at Midwestern University in Downers Grove, Illinois, who conducted a survey of the scant medical literature on kratom, says the herb did indeed help to relieve pain in animal studies.\n\nWhile no clinical trials have yet been done with humans, addicts in Thailand and Malaysia have used kratom for decades to detox from heroin and alcohol. It was so successful in getting people off opium that Thailand banned kratom in 1943 to stem the loss of the opium taxes that funded the government.\n\nNobody knows how many are using kratom here in the US. \u201cThere are so many testimonials out there [from kratom users] on the Internet that I personally found quite compelling,\u201d Dr. Prozialeck says. \u201cThis merits further study.\u201d\n\nBut study has proven difficult. Dr. Edward Boyer, director of toxicology at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, says that when he tried to conduct research on kratom, potential partners told him, \u201cwe don\u2019t fund drugs of abuse.\u201d Drug companies have shown sporadic interest in isolating the active constituents in kratom since the 1960s, he says, but no pharmaceuticals have yet been developed from them.\n\nGiven the current opioid crisis, Boyer hopes researchers will dive deeper into the plant\u2019s pharmacology. \u201cWouldn\u2019t it be great to have an analgesic that will relieve your pain and not kill you?\u201d Boyer notes that kratom is free from the potentially deadly side effects like respiratory failure that have bedeviled prescription opioids.\n\nHowever, drug companies have shown little interest in a plant remedy that cannot be patented. While some of kratom\u2019s active ingredients have indeed been patented by researchers who hope one day to market them to pharmaceutical firms, Boyer said that these compounds have failed to exhibit as powerful pain-killing effects as the whole plant. \u201cThere is something in there that we don\u2019t yet understand,\u201d he added.\n\nAnd if the DEA\u2019s ban goes into effect, we may never understand kratom\u2019s remarkable potential. That\u2019s because the federal action would have a chilling effect on research, according to Boyer.\n\nThe DEA claims that kratom is addictive. Since you can get hooked on most anything\u2014 even coffee or chocolate, as Dr. Boyer pointed out, this claim is both relatively meaningless and also hard to dispute. Users report that withdrawal symptoms from kratom are comparable to giving up coffee\u2014a few days of irritability, perhaps a headache.\n\nIn issuing its scheduling notice, the DEA said that the Centers for Disease Control received 660 complaints about kratom (including reports of constipation and vomiting) between 2010 to 2015, out of 3 million calls annually reporting adverse reactions to assorted other foods and drugs. To put this number in perspective, the National Poison Data System registers more than 3,700 calls about caffeine annually, every year leading to multiple overdoses that result in death.\n\n\u201cThis hardly constitutes a public health emergency,\u201d says Susan Ash. \u201cThey definitely get more calls about energy drinks.\u201d\n\nIn banning kratom, the DEA dispensed with the usual public comment period. Advocates, however, refuse to be silenced. They plan to challenge the DEA\u2019s action in court and are marching on the White House on September 13. A petition urging President Barack Obama to reverse the ban has surpassed the 100,000 signature mark which, by law, requires a personal response from the president.\n\n\u201cThere is a cheap plant out there that\u2019s helping people getting off opioids,\u201d Ash says, \u201cand now so many are going to be forced back into active addiction, or made a prey to black market drug dealers.\u201d\n\nWhat if, instead of turning tens of thousands of law-abiding Americans into either addicts or felons, the DEA listened to those who have used kratom successfully to kick their addictions and manage chronic pain? Instead of banning the herb, why not draft some sensible regulation to establish dosage and labelling requirements and to protect consumers from adulterated product?\n\nAnd while they are at it, America\u2019s drug agency should sponsor some long overdue scientific research into a substance that may be the best thing going to combat our runaway epidemic of opioid addiction.\n\nSource: https://www.wired.com/2016/09/dea-wrong-ban-cure-opioid-addiction/\n#news\n#story\n#drugs\n#addiction", + "category": "life", + "children": 6, + "created": "2016-09-14T13:50:09", "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", "depth": 0, "is_paidout": false, "json_metadata": { "image": [ -

I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; \u201cLe Cordon Bleu\u201d.\n\n### Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I\u2019m now based.\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Site ](https://gustavopasquini.com)\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Shop ](https://gustavopasquini-shop.com)\n\n> ### [Blog Post ](https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/15/pork-rib-with-barbucue-sauce/)\n\n> ### [Recipe Site ](http://gshow.globo.com/receitas-gshow/receita/costelinha-ao-molho-barbecue-4e3606631417f260dd004c7e.html)\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------", - "category": "food", - "children": 0, - "created": "2016-09-15T14:37:00", - "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "depth": 0, - "is_paidout": false, - "json_metadata": { - "image": [ - "https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/untitled-design-23.png?w=1000", - "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png", - "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465" - ], - "links": [ - "https://gustavopasquini.com", - "https://gustavopasquini-shop.com", - "https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/15/pork-rib-with-barbucue-sauce/", - "http://gshow.globo.com/receitas-gshow/receita/costelinha-ao-molho-barbecue-4e3606631417f260dd004c7e.html" - ], - "tags": [ - "food", - "health", - "recipes", - "curie", - "life" - ] - }, - "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", - "net_rshares": 173800694351, - "payout": 0.039, - "payout_at": "2016-09-22T14:37:00", - "pending_payout_value": "0.039 HBD", - "percent_hbd": 10000, - "permlink": "pork-rib-with-barbucue-sauce", - "post_id": 1254587, - "reblogs": 0, - "replies": [], - "stats": { - "flag_weight": 0.0, - "gray": false, - "hide": false, - "total_votes": 17 - }, - "title": "Pork Rib with Barbucue Sauce", - "updated": "2016-09-15T14:37:00", - "url": "/food/@gustavopasquini/pork-rib-with-barbucue-sauce" - }, - { - "active_votes": [ - { - "rshares": 7557379000151, - "voter": "steempty" + "rshares": 1718220661, + "voter": "bingo-1" }, { - "rshares": 57522418578, - "voter": "oaldamster" + "rshares": 5915109368459, + "voter": "smooth.witness" }, { - "rshares": 3856359272, - "voter": "incomemonthly" + "rshares": 10365249221, + "voter": "idol" }, { - "rshares": 1659338531, - "voter": "tokyodude" + "rshares": 5043750251, + "voter": "sakr" }, { - "rshares": 3266602711, - "voter": "ace108" + "rshares": 1784473143, + "voter": "jocelyn" }, { - "rshares": 5767859209, - "voter": "beanz" + "rshares": 86992875240, + "voter": "acidsun" }, { - "rshares": 2649789126, - "voter": "levycore" + "rshares": 14793702576, + "voter": "gregory-f" }, { - "rshares": 6203417678, - "voter": "englishtchrivy" + "rshares": 1181352145582, + "voter": "gavvet" }, { - "rshares": 113365614, - "voter": "edgarsart" + "rshares": 59913984920, + "voter": "eeks" }, { - "rshares": 2650729275, - "voter": "senseye" - } - ], - "author": "englishtchrivy", - "author_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "author_reputation": 58.6, - "beneficiaries": [], - "blacklists": [], - "body": "

Have you ever had a monkey sit on your shoulder? \nHow would you feel if one does?\nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/2akab6a.jpg\n\n\n

I have always feared monkeys, they seem mischievous, out of control and pretty wild. Our encounter with some wild Barbary Macaques in the Monkey Temple in Huahin, Thailand years ago made that fear worsen when I saw them grab a bunch of bananas from a boy and started fighting with each other. The noise they made was unbearable it send shivers to your spine. \nhttp://i63.tinypic.com/zwgcuc.jpg\n\n

Hub knows how much I love animals and he has always asked me to go with him to the monkey reserve half an hour away from home. For years, I've refused but this year, for him I gave in. He took me to Apenheul Primate Park the week I got almost stressed out from doing too many things to get me relaxed. \n\n

I didn't know what to expect just monkeys -they're just monkeys I thought. We bought our ticket online so we won't have to fall in line and just scan it. When we got there the staff gave us a map of the place and asked us to put our bags in a \"monkey-free\" bag (that's what they call it). Confused, I asked why - and she just told me some monkeys are walking loose in the reserve and could sometimes stick their fingers in visitor's bags and grab whatever they could find there. So we did.\n\n

We decided to go to where the stray Bolivian Squirrel Monkeys are and found a crowd of visitors gathered together around a stroller with a kid on it scanning everything they could maybe find in it. Hub said they could work in the customs - for checking every stroller there. \nhttp://i66.tinypic.com/24pvtsn.jpg\n\n

I just stood next to them watching when one of them jumped and sat on my shoulder. He stared at me and I dared not stared back, worried he might see his reflection on my \"mirror\" -like sunglasses, I looked away and smiled when I saw hub taking our pics. He then looked away seemingly looking for a plant to jump on to and did just that.\nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/10p0oly.jpg\n\n

We walked along following the path in the map and saw more of them gnawing on strips of carrots and some on cabbages. We followed the trail on the map that was given to us by one of the staff in the entrance that has all the do's and don'ts on it and we heard a very loud noise of monkeys that seem to be fighting with each other. We asked one of the staff what that was all about and she said that's just how they communicate with each other. Curious, we checked them out and bumped into a male Ring Tailed Lemur from Madagascar walking towards me being followed by a bunch of children. \nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/107sydw.jpg\n\n

We went on and found a few hanging out on what look a hammock.\nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/24eclll.jpg\n\n\n\n

On the other side were two moms breastfeeding their young who fled when we stayed and watched. I've managed to take these though.\nhttp://i64.tinypic.com/15whua9.jpg\n\nhttp://i68.tinypic.com/23rq1vs.jpg\n\n

We made a wrong turn and found ourselves in the Bonobo's abode. Some of them were having a siesta and we could just see them through a glass wall. One was in a hammock just staring at me yawning every now and then. Bonobo apes are actually endangered because of poaching so it's nice to see them just having a safe life in this reserve. \nhttp://i66.tinypic.com/14udgl4.jpg\n\nhttp://i65.tinypic.com/351ty81.jpg\n\n

What a life - they are having, every thing is taken care of, food, water, dwelling even a playground. We went around and stumbled in what seem to be a gallery and got confronted with these. \nMeet our forefathers http://i67.tinypic.com/14t6e09.jpg\n\nhttp://i65.tinypic.com/xmsavo.jpg\n\nhttp://i66.tinypic.com/ejx4qp.jpg\n\n

We went through the other door and found a trail overlooking a trail and what seem to be a monkey's playground in the middle. There we found more Bonobos or chimpanzees playing with their Mom. \nhttp://i63.tinypic.com/2dlyf4.jpg\n\n

Mommy Bonobo http://i67.tinypic.com/2n7idl1.jpg\n\n

We followed the trail and found more monkeys in the glass cage. One was just basking in the sun and the others just seemingly picking lice out of each other.\nhttp://i64.tinypic.com/2e6bmgx.jpg\n\nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/or8kfc.jpg\n\n

They're the Crowned Sifakas from Madagascar. Like the Bonobos they are one of those African monkeys that are endangered. In Apenheul, they're a star - adored and gushed by children and adults alike. A happy sight to see. The trio suddenly leaped on a tree and started chewing on leaves. One was licking the bark after each swallow. I wonder why.\nhttp://i63.tinypic.com/16kny9s.jpg\n\nhttp://i65.tinypic.com/fpa61d.jpg\n\n

Onward we went and found ourselves in the Orangutan's dwelling. A few of them were in the glass cage like these siblings just sitting on straws playing with each other while Mom was staring at everyone staring back at them through the glass cage. \nhttp://i68.tinypic.com/125jokp.jpg\n\n

We went outside and saw two of them basking in the sun, too. We stopped to watch and another visitor said; \" He'd trade his life to theirs - everything's so easy, just basking in the sun, food's on the ground -for the grab and most of all - no taxes to pay. I grinned - not because I agree with him but because of the naughty thought that hit me ...\"Okay, you may have such a life but then ... looking like an Orangutan, I'm okay with paying taxes, besides here in Holland, I see where they go.\nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/2npr4p.jpg \n\n\n

This is Radia, on August 31, Wednesday she died in the evening. She's the oldest among the Orangutans in the Apenheul Primate Park. That's sad to hear but at least at 53 ... she died a peaceful death - not from poaching.\nhttp://i66.tinypic.com/28bbecl.jpg\n\n

We walked further and found the entrance of a restaurant / playground for kids / smoking area / habitat for loris on the loose - where we decided to have an apple pie and some cappuccino since we look like we'll be needing the energy to stroll such a huge place. I like the cup with the ape and thought of buying one for a souvenir.\nhttp://i65.tinypic.com/2d7ynw7.jpg\n\n

After our pie break we headed for the Gorilla show and found out that we just missed it. It finishes at 4 and the lady who takes care of Bongo told us to just go to the gorilla's gallery to see them. There, we found them having turnips and some leaves for a snack. A few more minutes the same lady we spoke with turned up with an ice cream and fed Bongo. He then turned his massive back against us all. The other gorillas licked up the rest of the ice cream oozing on the cage while Bongo hid in the corner eating a whole broccoli. One kid exclaimed; \"Hey, that's not fair! How come Bongo gets and ice cream and a broccoli and the others just get to have his left over ice cream, some turnips and leaves.\" This is what a child sees, of course he's just a child, he hasn't realized, Bongo has provided for the other gorillas. Most children go visit the Apenheul to see him perform and do stunts other gorilla adults can't. Bongo is a celebrity that makes Apeheul money. \nhttp://i64.tinypic.com/2dw4y38.jpg\n\nhttp://i64.tinypic.com/2ziriaf.jpg\n\n

How the other gorillas reacted while he was being fed ice cream was a spectacle to watch - I don't think it's because they understood that what he's having is actually crap and poison. They just stared at Bongo being fed... didn't make a fuzz and licked up what's drooling on the metal cage. No wrestling nor any struggle took place.\nhttp://i68.tinypic.com/i5xibk.jpg\n\nhttp://i68.tinypic.com/2m3nztt.jpg\n\n

We moved on and stumbled with a few Barbary Macaques who were fighting and making so much noises. They're loose but far away from the crowd. These two caught my eyes, they were just there on one of those pretend rock walls in the Barbary Macaques' dwelling. These are Gundis or comb rats. They can be found in rocky desserts in Africa - no wonder the Barbary Macaque's habitat is built this way. They were just there, one lying on top of the other - both seemingly drowsy.\nhttp://i65.tinypic.com/sct10i.jpg\n\n

One of the Barbary Macaques was away from the others who at that time were fighting over food. This guy was just doing his monkey business - seemingly fishing grains out of this man made pond. \nhttp://i66.tinypic.com/2z7iqhk.jpg\n\n

Further more, we bumped into photo booths, exhibit rooms, a bunch of Ibis and more monkeys. The Lion Tail Macaque caught our attention. The Lion Tail Macaque is named as such because of the white mane on his face. He's also called the \"bearded ape\" for having such a mane on his face. In the wild, they could live for 20 years but in captivity and if properly taken care of they could live for 30 years. One of them was given an apple because it has a diabetes. The primates in the Apenheul gets free medical check up, too. It's not just taxes they don't have to pay but also medical insurance. What a life!\nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/25ivy28.jpg\n\nhttp://i66.tinypic.com/i1fypz.jpg\n\n

It's a very good climber, this one has managed to climb up one of the trees in the habitat, jumped to another tree on the other side of the water around their playground, picked up a bottle of coca cola and went back to the group trying to open it. \nhttp://i63.tinypic.com/r1hhyx.jpg\n\n\n

We moved on and saw more monkeys we couldn't take a clear pic of because they were just going back and forth what seem to be rope monkey bars. They were very fun to watch. Then we bumped along this long bearded monkeys going back and forth this hanging monkey bridges attached to tall trees. One of them stopped and looked down. I extended my arms, tip-toed to take a shot but it still isn't clear for that Emperor Tamarin was way above me. They seem pretty restless and I saw one munch on an apple and disappeared in the door like opening to their artificial habitat.\nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/v5v6ev.jpg\n\n

We climbed up a trail and found more restless monkeys, sloths, poisonous frogs and tropical insects all kept separately in terrariums in a quite - dim room. When we went out of it , we bumped into the smallest monkey in the world - the very shy Pygmea Oeistiti.\nhttp://i65.tinypic.com/2hrzymd.jpg\n\nhttp://i67.tinypic.com/3462vcy.jpg\n\n

We headed back to the door since it was already closing time and saw a bunch of monkeys just by the door restlessly waiting for their caretaker to open the door for them. It's their feeding time for dinner and so these guys couldn't wait to grab a meal. We took quick shots and headed for the entrance.\n

Red Tit Monkey http://i66.tinypic.com/1z1y0pw.jpg\n\nhttp://i65.tinypic.com/bdqoep.jpg\n\n

This Mantel Tamarin has a face of a bat. \n http://i68.tinypic.com/33v2hyb.jpg\n\n

Golden Lion Monkey http://i67.tinypic.com/2iig3lc.jpg\n\n

Black Ear Oeistiti http://i64.tinypic.com/2mq7n5v.jpg\n\n

On the way out, we gave back the bags that were given to us and headed for the souvenir shop. The cup is nowhere to be seen so I thought of buying this.\nhttp://i66.tinypic.com/inaoaa.jpg\n\n

Until I saw this.\n\n\n

It was quite a long relaxing stroll that day despite the heat. It felt like I was walking in a forest because of the tall trees in there that provided the shade we needed and the presence of the animals that were there - healthy and safe. That day, I had a different view about monkeys - specially about the Barbary Macaques. That night, I dreamt that I cuddled one of those Bolivian Squirrel Monkeys and he just lazed in my arms. I had such a fun day, I brought it in my sleep. What can I say, yes - they're indeed my kind'a monkeys. Would I go back to Apenheul? Definitely, perhaps next year, sometime in July or August where the tickets are much cheaper than the normal days and hopefully, I get to see the monkeys I didn't get to see then and if not.. I'll just enjoy the serenity the place offers despite the presence of other visitors.

Before any procedure, dessalgue their dried meat, which usually comes to us consumers with too much salt to your saves. Cut the meat into large cubes of edge 5cm +/- each. Dip these cubes of dried meat in a container with water to the surface of the meat, covering the cubes. Keep this container in the refrigerator and replace your water every 2 hours, 3 to 4 times depending on how their meat is salty.\n\n### 2. To find out if your meat is too much or too little salt, just testing the water at the last and penultimate exchanges; if it is too salty, require more exchanges of cold water, if the water is only brackish, will be ready the meat to be manipulated.\n\n### 3. In a pressure cooker and over medium heat, saute onion and garlic in olive oil, leaving them brown. Add to this mixture the meat without water dessalgue, in order to seal (browning meat outside), while stirring occasionally.\n\n### 4. Add the wine, water and cover the pressure cooker, sealing it well. Lower the heat to the lowest setting and cook in pressure for about 30 minutes.\n\n### 5. Turn off the heat, allow the pressure out completely. Open the pot and see if the meat is well tender, otherwise return it to the fire, with the covered pot for a few minutes (10minutes, depending on how the meat in question is still hard).\n\n### 6. Once cooked meat and tender, remove all the liquid that came off the meat into another container and set aside.\n\n### 7. Close the pressure cooker with the meat cooked inside, and shake several times and vigorously. When you open the pressure cooker meat should be shredded completely. If not, close the pot again and repeat the procedure until the desired result.\n\n### 8. Transfer the meat with its broth to a small saucepan and deep, add pelati tomatoes, mix well, correct the salt if necessary, and leave on medium heat until the broth begins to reduce and refine. About 20 minutes. The more reduce broth, the flavor will be determined.\n\n\n\n## Polenta\n\n### Boil water in a deep pan and add low-temperature salt and fine corn flour gradually, stirring until it is full-bodied and creamy. Preferably, follow the \"proportion\" of water and cornmeal, and the \"method of preparation\" of the flour manufacturer to polenta to buy, after all there are differences in the composition of each of these industrialized corn mixtures! Porcione container or format you want to serve.\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png\n\n# About Me\n\n### In 2012 I began my cooking journey in Brasil and studied at \u201cSenac, Juiz de Fora\u201d, in Minas Gerais, developing my basic culinary techniques.\n\n### Later I worked in a local restaurant, and rose to a role in management, helping to increase the clientele base. I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; \u201cLe Cordon Bleu\u201d.\n\n### Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I\u2019m now based.\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Site ](https://gustavopasquini.com)\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Shop ](https://gustavopasquini-shop.com)\n\n> ### [Blog Post ](https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/15/polenta-with-ragu-meat-dry/)\n\n> ### [Recipe Site ](https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/wmp)\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------", - "category": "food", - "children": 2, - "created": "2016-09-15T12:27:30", - "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "depth": 0, - "is_paidout": false, - "json_metadata": { - "image": [ - "https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/untitled-design-22.png?w=1000", - "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png", - "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465" - ], - "links": [ - "https://gustavopasquini.com", - "https://gustavopasquini-shop.com", - "https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/15/polenta-with-ragu-meat-dry/", - "https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/wmp" - ], - "tags": [ - "food", - "health", - "recipes", - "curie", - "life" - ] - }, - "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", - "net_rshares": 17276761050325, - "payout": 20.228, - "payout_at": "2016-09-22T12:27:30", - "pending_payout_value": "20.228 HBD", - "percent_hbd": 10000, - "permlink": "polenta-with-ragu-meat-dry", - "post_id": 1253260, - "reblogs": 0, - "replies": [], - "stats": { - "flag_weight": 0.0, - "gray": false, - "hide": false, - "total_votes": 28 - }, - "title": "Polenta with Ragu Meat Dry", - "updated": "2016-09-15T16:21:24", - "url": "/food/@gustavopasquini/polenta-with-ragu-meat-dry" - }, - { - "active_votes": [ - { - "rshares": 52026601, - "voter": "fredbullot" - } - ], - "author": "fredbullot", - "author_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "author_reputation": 31.54, - "beneficiaries": [], - "blacklists": [], - "body": "http://i58.servimg.com/u/f58/13/71/78/59/19046410.jpg\n22 Sept 1985\nFred BULLOT @ \" Le Marathon International de Montr\u00e9al \" \u00a9\nRanked # 65 (20 000 participants !!)\nBest career time > 2h36 '49\"\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marathon_Oasis_de_Montreal\n\nhttp://i86.servimg.com/u/f86/13/71/78/59/z2715.jpg\n\nFred BULLOT DIGEST \u00a9\n\n\" GLOBAL FREE-MARKET ANARCHIST ACTIVIST & PROMOTER \" * / PRIVATE BASKETBALL, TENNIS, SWIMMING, FITNESS COACH & # 1 ELITE AMERICAN BASKETBALL ACADEMIES SCOUT in EUROPE & ASIA \u00a9\n* (Austrian School of Economics / \u00c9cole Autrichienne d'Economie https://youtu.be/8WT41oWaqog)\nSince 1992 THE Pioneer in Europe for the Placement of French Student-Athletes in Elite Prep Schools & # 1 American High Schools/Universities Expert in Europe !\n\n\" MY GOAL : Promote Basketball around the World and enable/inspire French, Belgian, Swiss, Indian ..

 Hello friends!  Today, I'm writing my second article about how to move to live on the paradise island. I am talking about the Koh Phangan Island in Thailand. In my first article I wrote about how to get there. Now I want to tell you what to do next.

  Since you arrive to the Island - you have to solve 2 main tasks as fast as you can. There is onl\u0443 thing you should pay attention to. If you come in the high season that is from the 15th of December to 15th of January you may have some problems when searching a house to stay. At this time the Island is full of people, everybody comes to celebrate the New Year, and that is why almost all the houses are occupied. So if you arrive around this time, I advise you to book in your accommodation in advance. Here you can see some reliable Realtors, who will not trick you and do everything very quickly and nicely.  But if you do not plan to come in the high season, you can easily find a suitable accommodation for yourself. As soon as you step out to the dock you get immediately surrounded by a bunch of taxi drivers who want to take you somewhere. It\u2019s better not to use their services, and do everything on your own.

 Your 1st task is to rent a bike by yourself. You can rent it for absolutely any term from 1 day to several months. If you want to stay here for a few months, it is much more profitable to buy it. There are a lot of offers for renting bikes, you can find absolutely any bike for any budget. The average monthly rent varies from 3000 baht  to 7000 baht .(1000 baht=29$)   In my opinion, the best option is to immediately rent a good bike yourself.

it\u2019s the most popular one and it has the best combination of price and quality. It will cost you 5000 baht in average. It is very comfortable, fast and efficient. You can rent it not far from the arrival pier. After you left the pier, you have to go to the left at the first junction towards the roundabout. After that to choose a bike suiting you taste and in the color you need, you should come to every office and bargain. When renting you a bike Thais always take your passport. And if you leave even a tiny scratch on the bike, they will get really angry. They seem to have a national Thai sport \u2013 fooling a foreigner. So a friend of mine paid 3000 for a small scratch, Thais did not want to give him his passport back, and the ferry was already set to sail, so my friend had to pay. Do not forget that you are a guest here and locals dictate the rules of the game here. That's their business. So be careful with a rented bike and protect it as your own. And finally you have found a transport - then the most difficult, but exciting time comes \u2013 you should search for a house.

 At the first day, I recommend you to find any house that you like for a week. You will have a week to drive around the Island and find the place to stay that you really like. In future articles, I will tell you how and where to go that week, and now I'll tell you where you need to go to find a budget place for the first time.  Here you can see the marks of the villages where you can almost always find available and very good accommodation with very good hosts.

 But you should always bargain with Thais.

\n

 In recent years I myself have lived with the most wonderful hosts, I would recommend you to stay with them too. They became really close to us during our stay. Here is the mark of the house, and the owner\u2019s contacts. You can write to him and he can meet you directly at the pier and help carry you stuff. This amazing guy has even bikes for rent.

When you find a house and get some rest, it's time to go eat something. The most important meeting point of all the people living on the Island is the food court.

\n

\n

 Anyone can find food for him here. I'll give you more details about it in the following articles. Another very important tip - if it\u2019s your first time on the island, download the map Maps.me and mark there all the important places. Because as soon as it gets dark on the island - everything is changing, and it\u2019s very easy to get lost. Thank you for reading my article. I hope it will be useful to you. See you soon!

I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques.

Why would the DEA ban an all natural plant that helps people who get off of Heroin? I had to SHARE this article because of hour bogus our fucked up country is.\n\n45 years AFTER the drug war was declared by President Richard Nixon, the United States leads the world in both recreational drug usage and incarceration rates. Heroin abuse rates continue to soar. Drug-related violence in our nation\u2019s cities and cartel wars in Latin America exact horrific tolls.\n\nAnd then there is the ever-present bully on the block, prescription drug abuse. More than two million Americans have become hooked on the pharmaceuticals that doctors prescribe to ease their pain. Opioids\u2014both legal and illicit\u2014killed a mind-boggling 28,647 people in 2014.\n\nBut not to worry: The Drug Enforcement Administration is on the case. \u201cTo avoid an imminent hazard to public safety,\u201d the agency said in a press release, it will be adding kratom, a medicinal herb that has been used safely in Southeast Asia for centuries, to its list of Schedule 1 substances, placing the popular botanical in a class with killers like heroin and cocaine at the end of September.\n\nWhy ban the mild-mannered tree leaf? Well, because the DEA claims it\u2019s an opioid with \u201cno currently accepted medical use.\u201d Wrong on both counts. Pharmacologists label kratom as an alkaloid, not an opioid. True, kratom stimulates certain opioid receptors in the brain. But then, so does drinking a glass of wine, or running a marathon.\n\nKratom is less habit-forming than classic opioids like heroin and the pharmaceutical oxycodone, and its impact on the brain is weaker and more selective. Nevertheless, the herb\u2019s ability to bind loosely with certain opioid receptors makes it a godsend for addicts who want to kick their habits. Kratom is currently helping wean thousands of Americans off illegal drugs and prescription pain relievers, without creating any dangerous long term dependency.\n\nThe powdered leaves are readily available from scores of herb sellers on the Internet. Since the ban was announced in late August, websites and social media have exploded with accounts from people who credit the plant with saving them from lives of addiction and chronic pain.\n\nTake, for example, Virginia native Susan Ash. She was using Suboxone to help cope with severe joint pain resulting from Lyme disease. \u201cMy life was ruled by the clock\u2014all I could think was, \u2018when do I take my next dose,'\u201d Ash says. Then someone suggested she try kratom to help kick her addiction to the prescription pain killer. \u201cIn two weeks time, I went from being a bed-bound invalid to a productive member of society again.\n\nShe founded the American Kratom Society in 2014 to help keep this herbal lifeline legal. Ash says that tens of thousands of people use kratom not just to help with chronic pain, but also to alleviate depression and to provide relief from PTSD. She strongly disputes that users like herself are simply exchanging one addictive drug for another.\n\n\u201cI have never had a craving for kratom,\u201d Ash says. \u201cYou can\u2019t compare it to even the mildest opiate. It simply won\u2019t get you high.\u201d\n\nWhat it might do, users say, is slightly tweak your mood. The leaves of the Mitragyna speciosa tree, a biological relative of coffee, have been chewed for centuries in Southeast Asia by farmers to increase their stamina. Kratom is gently euphoric and also relaxing\u2014think coffee without the jitters and sleeplessness. It is hard to take toxic levels of the herb, since larger doses induce nausea and vomiting.\n\nBut does it provide medical benefits? Dr. Walter Prozialeck, chair of the Department of Pharmacology at Midwestern University in Downers Grove, Illinois, who conducted a survey of the scant medical literature on kratom, says the herb did indeed help to relieve pain in animal studies.\n\nWhile no clinical trials have yet been done with humans, addicts in Thailand and Malaysia have used kratom for decades to detox from heroin and alcohol. It was so successful in getting people off opium that Thailand banned kratom in 1943 to stem the loss of the opium taxes that funded the government.\n\nNobody knows how many are using kratom here in the US. \u201cThere are so many testimonials out there [from kratom users] on the Internet that I personally found quite compelling,\u201d Dr. Prozialeck says. \u201cThis merits further study.\u201d\n\nBut study has proven difficult. Dr. Edward Boyer, director of toxicology at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, says that when he tried to conduct research on kratom, potential partners told him, \u201cwe don\u2019t fund drugs of abuse.\u201d Drug companies have shown sporadic interest in isolating the active constituents in kratom since the 1960s, he says, but no pharmaceuticals have yet been developed from them.\n\nGiven the current opioid crisis, Boyer hopes researchers will dive deeper into the plant\u2019s pharmacology. \u201cWouldn\u2019t it be great to have an analgesic that will relieve your pain and not kill you?\u201d Boyer notes that kratom is free from the potentially deadly side effects like respiratory failure that have bedeviled prescription opioids.\n\nHowever, drug companies have shown little interest in a plant remedy that cannot be patented. While some of kratom\u2019s active ingredients have indeed been patented by researchers who hope one day to market them to pharmaceutical firms, Boyer said that these compounds have failed to exhibit as powerful pain-killing effects as the whole plant. \u201cThere is something in there that we don\u2019t yet understand,\u201d he added.\n\nAnd if the DEA\u2019s ban goes into effect, we may never understand kratom\u2019s remarkable potential. That\u2019s because the federal action would have a chilling effect on research, according to Boyer.\n\nThe DEA claims that kratom is addictive. Since you can get hooked on most anything\u2014 even coffee or chocolate, as Dr. Boyer pointed out, this claim is both relatively meaningless and also hard to dispute. Users report that withdrawal symptoms from kratom are comparable to giving up coffee\u2014a few days of irritability, perhaps a headache.\n\nIn issuing its scheduling notice, the DEA said that the Centers for Disease Control received 660 complaints about kratom (including reports of constipation and vomiting) between 2010 to 2015, out of 3 million calls annually reporting adverse reactions to assorted other foods and drugs. To put this number in perspective, the National Poison Data System registers more than 3,700 calls about caffeine annually, every year leading to multiple overdoses that result in death.\n\n\u201cThis hardly constitutes a public health emergency,\u201d says Susan Ash. \u201cThey definitely get more calls about energy drinks.\u201d\n\nIn banning kratom, the DEA dispensed with the usual public comment period. Advocates, however, refuse to be silenced. They plan to challenge the DEA\u2019s action in court and are marching on the White House on September 13. A petition urging President Barack Obama to reverse the ban has surpassed the 100,000 signature mark which, by law, requires a personal response from the president.\n\n\u201cThere is a cheap plant out there that\u2019s helping people getting off opioids,\u201d Ash says, \u201cand now so many are going to be forced back into active addiction, or made a prey to black market drug dealers.\u201d\n\nWhat if, instead of turning tens of thousands of law-abiding Americans into either addicts or felons, the DEA listened to those who have used kratom successfully to kick their addictions and manage chronic pain? Instead of banning the herb, why not draft some sensible regulation to establish dosage and labelling requirements and to protect consumers from adulterated product?\n\nAnd while they are at it, America\u2019s drug agency should sponsor some long overdue scientific research into a substance that may be the best thing going to combat our runaway epidemic of opioid addiction.\n\nSource: https://www.wired.com/2016/09/dea-wrong-ban-cure-opioid-addiction/\n#news\n#story\n#drugs\n#addiction", -

Earlier this year I was married in a traditional Thai marriage ceremony in the north of Thailand and I thought some of you may be interested about what goes on. I can tell you it's lots of fun mixed with a healthy dose of traditions. If you have a short attention span then feel free to watch the 5 minute video. I've put it at the top, it has groovy music and captures the essence of the day. \n\nFor those of you who would like to know more, then keep scrolling as I go into pain-staking detail of each of the sections of the wedding along with some pictures. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it, it was certainly a day I will never forget.\n\nLet me tell you I posted this story in the early days of steemit and I think about 6 people saw it. So I have edited it a bit and formatted it to look better. So, I hope you are OK with my re-post. Thanks\n

\n- - - \nThe wedding day kicks off early! (around 6:30am)...and so it begins with....

\n

1.THE KHAN MAAK PROCESSION

\n
THE BRIDESMAIDS:
\n


\n
THAI TRADITIONAL DANCERS:
\n

\n
THE KHAN MAAK PROCESSION:
\n

Ok. So first things first. We have to come to the house, and we can't just rock up and knock on the door and say "Heh we are here for the wedding!". No, that wouldn't do. I must collect my rabbly entourage of family and friends and assorted village vagabonds and assemble them at a point a few hundred metres up the road. From here we must sing, dance and shout our impending arrival as we make our way up the street.

\n

The procession is lead by the groom\u2019s representative or (\u201c\u0e40\u0e16\u0e49\u0e32\u0e41\u0e01\u0e48) Thao Gae\u201d, in this case it was a professor from my wife's university. He was my guide, and helper as I had never done this before. I got the idea that it wasn't his first time at the rodeo. Also as a respected guest he was going to help me gain entry to the fortress that lay ahead. Joining us were my parents, relatives and friends carrying flowers, incenses, candles and gifts, all which were required for the ceremony. Also at the front of the procession were drummers and traditional folk dancers, who making all the banging, clanging and swirling to announce our arrival to everybody in the surrounding village.

\n

Banana leaves and sugar cane storks were given to some of the stronger members to carry, while others had the responsibility of bringing the traditional gifts of the Kan Maak, which included rice, sesame seeds, some small amounts of Thai food for the feast, a selection of Thai desserts. I'd been told sometimes a pigs head was involved, but thankfully not today. My brother and one of my wife's aunt were entrusted with the monetary gifts and other precious items, such as gold and jewellery, which would make up the dowry. A lot of these gifts represent important aspects of marriage, such as health, prosperity, fertility and longevity.

\n

2. PASSING THROUGH THE GATES (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e01\u0e31\u0e49\u0e19\u0e1b\u0e23\u0e30\u0e15\u0e39)

\n

\n
PASSING THROUGH THE GATES (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e01\u0e31\u0e49\u0e19\u0e1b\u0e23\u0e30\u0e15\u0e39)
\n

In order for the wedding to commence, I had to first collect my bride-to-be from her room inside the family house. Simple enough? Not really.....To do this I had to successfully navigate through a series of gates which only opened upon completion of certain challenges. These symbolic barriers would only be opened once I had proved my worth to the keepers of the \u201clocks\u201d.

\n

Normally, there are just 3 of these symbolic \u201cgates\u201d, but sometimes there may be more, and in my case there were. The gates were made up of strings of orchids, or chains of silver and gold, and each one was held by either close friends or young family members of the bride. I think I sang, danced and bribed my way through 9 gates before I made it to the house mostly in one piece, Indiana Jones would have been proud.. thankfully, my " Thao Gae" (I mentioned him earlier) was a shrewd negotiator and also commanded a bit of respect.

\n

As I passed each challenge, the toll for each subsequent \u201cgate\u201d continually increased as I advanced. I gave the first few gatekeepers 100 Baht ( about $3) to open the door. By the time I got to the last road-block I think her teenage cousins wrangled 1,000 Baht ($30 each) out of me, not bad for 5 minutes work...This wass undoubtedly one of the most frivolous and fun parts of the wedding as I bartered with the various gatekeepers to let me through.

\n

3. MONKS BLESSING

\n

\n
Monks Blessing
\n

Once the gates have been successfully negotiated, I was allowed to collect the bride from her room to continue the next part of ceremony which was the monks blessing. We had 9 monks (auspicious number) and they chanted their way through a succession of blessings whilst a lit candle was placed in a bowl of water. This water was then used later to bless us. A bowl of white paste was also blessed which was also used later to anoint our foreheads, you may notice the white dots on our faces.

\n

Although more solemn than the previous shenanigans on the way in, I still enjoyed this moment very much. The eldest monk has known my wife since the day she was born and watched her grow into the woman she is today.

\n

After the chanting had finished, we offered food to the monks. Nobody else wass permitted to eat until the monks had finished their meal. After they had eaten, they took no further part in the ceremony, and after a brief chat, they trundled up the road back to the temple.

\n

4. COUNTING THE DOWRY (\u0e2a\u0e34\u0e19\u0e2a\u0e2d\u0e14)

\n


\n

\n
Counting The Dowry
\n

Next is the dowry ceremony. This is the part which is often difficult for foreigners to comprehend. I admit, for me, it goes against most of what I believe marriage to be about, however, it is an important part of the traditional ceremony, so we compromise in marriage, and I compromised. The dowry is a symbol that the groom is financially able to care for his new wife.The concept of sinsod was initially brought in to ensure that one\u2019s daughter did not marry below her potential standing in life. To stipulate that her social, financial and professional status and reputation is preserved and secured. Although this is less relevant nowadays, the tradition remains.

\n

So my dowry was formally presented by my parents to my bride\u2019s mum on the Kan Maak tray. This particular dowry consisted of some money, gold, and jewellery, but may also include title deeds to property in some cases. The dowry was then counted out onto a red cloth by my bride\u2019s mum. She put on a bit of a pantomime that it was too heavy to pick up. The amount of the dowry had been predetermined, (Please don't ask how much).
\n

\n

There is no set amount, the sum of sinsod is typically determined on the one hand by suitor\u2019s perceived wealth, and on the other hand by the \u201cvalue\u201d of the future wife. Her beauty, personality, background, education and other qualifications.More often than not, a part of the money is used to pay for the wedding ceremonies, parties and other related expenses. Dowries or sinsod payments range from THB 50,000 to 500,000 ($1500-$1500) and up.

\n

5. THE ENGAGEMENT (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e2b\u0e21\u0e31\u0e49\u0e19)

\n


\n

\n
The Engagement
\n

Traditionally, the engagement is performed well in advance of the wedding, just as in western culture, but recently, it has become common for it to be carried out on the wedding day after Counting the Dowry. I mean, we got engaged about 6 months earlier, but we rolled the ceremonial aspect of this into the wedding. The engagement was a way of introducing the bride to the groom, who had been selected by her parents and gave a chance for the couple to get acquainted before the wedding, but nowadays most couples choose their own partners, as we obviously did ;)

\n

At this point, we exchanged rings, and I also took the jewellery from Sin Sod tray and placed them on my bride as well. The exchange is performed in front of the parents of both parties.

\n

6. THE THREAD AND WATER POURING (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e2b\u0e25\u0e31\u0e48\u0e07\u0e19\u0e49\u0e33\u0e1e\u0e23\u0e30\u0e1e\u0e38\u0e17\u0e18\u0e21\u0e19\u0e15\u0e4c)

\n


\n

\n
The Thread and Water Pouring
\n

After the Sin Sod ceremony was finished, we got ready for water pouring ceremony.The water pouring is the most important part of the Thai wedding ceremony as during this part the couple officially become husband (\u0e2a\u0e32\u0e21\u0e35) and wife (\u0e20\u0e23\u0e23\u0e22\u0e32). Traditionally, this was all that was required to validate the marriage, but nowadays the couple are also required to obtain a marriage certificate (\u0e17\u0e30\u0e40\u0e1a\u0e35\u0e22\u0e19\u0e2a\u0e21\u0e23\u0e2a) from the local registration office (Shh. we haven't done that yet).

\n

Before the water pouring took place, we must seat ourselves at the traditional water pouring tables (\u0e15\u0e31\u0e48\u0e07\u0e23\u0e14\u0e19\u0e49\u0e33 [Dtang Rot Naam]), with the bride to the left of the groom. We each had a ceremonial headdress (\u0e21\u0e07\u0e04\u0e25 [Mong Kol]) , made from one piece of cotton forming a circle and signifying the joining of us as a couple, placed upon our heads. The Mong Kol had been previously been blessed by the Buddhist monks earlier in the wedding.

\n

Then senior members of the family or special guests of honor performed the anointing of our foreheads with three dots of white powder to represent the shape of a pyramid. Traditionally, the powder is made of dirt or clay, ground, and mixed with holy water and blessed by Buddhist monks. As with all of the ceremony\u2019s traditional customs, the ritual is meant to bring good fortune to the couple. (more dots)

\n

We were ready for the water pouring to commence once we had placed both hands (palms together), overhanging the water pouring table and positioned above flowers that were arranged in a water tray, to capture the water that ran off. Each of the elder guests in turn will take the ceremonial water pouring conch shell (\u0e2a\u0e31\u0e07\u0e02\u0e4c\u0e23\u0e14\u0e19\u0e49\u0e33), which had been freshly filled with holy water from the Buddhist ceremony, and poured a trickle of water from the base of our thumbs to the fingertips over the groom and then the bride. Most also used this opportunity to give us their congratulations and best wishes.

\n

7. THE BRIDAL BED (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e2a\u0e48\u0e07\u0e15\u0e31\u0e27)

\n

\n
The Bridal Bed
\n

After the water pouring ceremony was completed, we were sent to their bedroom. This is where things got a little weird. This is just a part of the wedding ceremony, we were not going to bed for real just yet. : ) although by this stage I was getting exhausted and could have used a little nap.

\n

The bed will was prepared by a married couple who had been happily married for a long time, in this case my mum and dad. Their knowledge and good luck was then imparted to us in a number of different ways. Nine meaningful items were placed on the bed as symbols of prosperity and fertility. They didn't really know what to do either do we kind of ad-libbed this a bit. But the goods on the bed were:

\n
    \n
  • One big brass tray (\u0e1e\u0e32\u0e19\u0e17\u0e2d\u0e07\u0e40\u0e2b\u0e25\u0e37\u0e2d\u0e07\u0e43\u0e2b\u0e0d\u0e48)
    • \n
  • A mortar as a symbol of steadily love (\u0e04\u0e23\u0e01\u0e1a\u0e14\u0e22\u0e32 \u0e2b\u0e21\u0e32\u0e22\u0e16\u0e36\u0e07 \u0e08\u0e34\u0e15\u0e43\u0e08\u0e2b\u0e19\u0e31\u0e01\u0e41\u0e19\u0e48\u0e19)
    • \n
  • A cane as a symbol of long life (\u0e44\u0e21\u0e49\u0e40\u0e17\u0e49\u0e32 \u0e2b\u0e21\u0e32\u0e22\u0e16\u0e36\u0e07 \u0e2d\u0e32\u0e22\u0e38\u0e22\u0e37\u0e19)

    • \n
  • A silver bag and gold bag of beans, sesame seeds and baking powder(\u0e2b\u0e21\u0e32\u0e22\u0e16\u0e36\u0e07\u0e04\u0e27\u0e32\u0e21\u0e40\u0e08\u0e23\u0e34\u0e0d\u0e07\u0e2d\u0e01\u0e07\u0e32\u0e21\u0e41\u0e25\u0e30\u0e04\u0e27\u0e32\u0e21\u0e40\u0e1f\u0e37\u0e48\u0e2d\u0e07\u0e1f\u0e39)

    • \n
\n

Tradition states that we the newly-weds must sleep with these objects in the bed for the next 3 nights. And, yes we did.

\n

Act. 2 - The Thai Wedding Party (Reception as we know it)

\n


\nWhen Thai couples tie the knot, there are two wedding events; traditional Thai ceremony and the wedding party. Most do both in the same day with the traditional Thai ceremony in the morning followed by the party in the afternoon or evening. Some couples prefer to do them on a separate day. We did ours on the same day. We got a brief 30 minute respite in which to update our Facebook status (lol) and do a Superman costume change into the afternoon's attire.

\n

We held the party in an empty field next to the house, which suited me fine, as I'm not a fan of dingy hotel ballrooms. The torrential rain from the night before held off, and apart from a bit of mud underfoot, all was well.

\n

\n

A Thai wedding party is usually large (aka huge). We probably only had about 50 people for the ceremony in the morning but we catered for 800 for the party....Yes 800... Parents will invite almost every single person they know; family members, relatives, colleagues, neighbors and of course it includes the immediate family of those guests. The more people the parents and the couple know, the bigger the wedding. It appears my wife's family knew everyone in the surrounding village even if my wife didn't have a clue who half of them were.

\n

This is due to the Thai custom about \u2018face\u2019 \u2013 especially if the family has important status in the society. If you don\u2019t invite someone, they will feel insulted and you could lose the relationship with them. Often the wedding of the children is like a reunion party for the parents. For us, it involved lots and lots of picture taking followed by more picture taking. There was some food in there somewhere, along with a band and some more traditional dancers.
\n

\n

Thai people don\u2019t usually give wedding gifts, instead they give cash. When the guest receives the wedding invitation, they will use the envelope of the invitation card to put the cash in. Then when they arrive at the wedding party\u2019s reception, there will be money boxes for the guests to put the cash envelope in. You can also write wishes for the wedding couple in a guest-book prepared at the reception and receive a wedding souvenir.

\n

Lighting the candles & Cutting the Cake

\n

Before cutting the cake, the wedding couple will light up three auspicious candles (\u0e40\u0e17\u0e35\u0e22\u0e19\u0e21\u0e07\u0e04\u0e25 ).
\nAfter that the cake was cut and we served it to out parents and closest relatives first. Pretty sure that big cake was just for show, and we had a smaller one for devouring.

\n

Eat, Drink and be Merry

\n

The rest of the afternoon was spent eating, drinking and chatting with the guests who remained. It's quite common for many of the guests to vanish quite quickly, as people get back to work or other activities. Regardless, a group of us stayed on till late in the evening recounting tales of times past.

\n

When the party was finished, we had to count the money they received and also make a note of the amount of the money they receive from each guest, so when they are invited to the guest\u2019s wedding or the wedding of the guest\u2019s child, they should put more money in the envelope.

Stay tuned for Pt.2

\n

Part 2: The Thai Beach Wedding, where we have a Western Ceremony by the beach. Yes we had 2 weddings, No that's not actually weird for foreign/Thai couples.

I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; \u201cLe Cordon Bleu\u201d.\n\n### Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I\u2019m now based.\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Site ](https://gustavopasquini.com)\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Shop ](https://gustavopasquini-shop.com)\n\n> ### [Blog Post ](https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/14/rolls-of-ham-and-mayonnaise/)\n\n> ### [Recipe Site ](http://www.tudogostoso.com.br/receita/46066-rolinhos-de-presunto-e-maionese.html)\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------", + "category": "food", + "children": 0, + "created": "2016-09-14T12:06:06", + "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": false, + "json_metadata": { + "image": [ + "https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/untitled-design-20.png?w=1000", + "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png", + "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465" + ], + "links": [ + "https://gustavopasquini.com", + "https://gustavopasquini-shop.com", + "https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/14/rolls-of-ham-and-mayonnaise/", + "http://www.tudogostoso.com.br/receita/46066-rolinhos-de-presunto-e-maionese.html" + ], + "tags": [ + "food", + "health", + "recipes", + "cooking", + "life" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 19223627207122, + "payout": 25.204, + "payout_at": "2016-09-21T12:06:06", + "pending_payout_value": "25.204 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "rolls-of-ham-and-mayonnaise", + "post_id": 1242492, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 32 + }, + "title": "Rolls of ham and Mayonnaise", + "updated": "2016-09-14T14:54:24", + "url": "/food/@gustavopasquini/rolls-of-ham-and-mayonnaise" + }, + { + "active_votes": [ { -

We were stuck in Vancouver Canada, with just about enough money to pay the bills, but not much to do anything else. One thing we really truly love is traveling and exploring places we have never been, but this particular year it was really looking like a trip was just not going to happen. We didn't have the cash, things weren't working out the way we thought they needed to, we resigned to just stay home.\n\nThen out of nowhere, in the span of about a week, we ended up booking 2 jobs that we weren't expecting. Suddenly we had a fist full of cash (actually, a bank account balance slightly higher than normal) and since we had been planning on tightening up the belt as it were, this cash was basically bonus. I got to thinking about it for a day or two, then one afternoon I just turned to Sabrina and said \"Hey, so we've got this money now, do you want to go to China?\" \n\nWe both kinda laughed for a minute, then she said \"Yeah, I really do... do you think we can?\" \n\nTwo days later we had flights booked to Beijing, and 3 nights reserved at a hostel in the city, the rest was up to us to figure out as it came along. We look back at this insane, spontaneous decision with fond memories and warm laughter every time we talk about it. It was the start of one of the best trips we have ever been on together, and we don't regret a single thing. Even when one of our jobs cancelled late, and the person who was going to rent our place canned out last minute (double rent, yay!!), and we ended up running out of money about three quarters of the way into our trip (hi uh mom? yeah, so were in Cambodia, and well, you're not gonna believe this...). \n\nI'll be making more posts as a series eventually covering our entire trip through Asia, but for now I hope you enjoy looking through some of our memories from China!\n\n## Around Beijing\n\n###### Sabrina, on our way to Vancouver airport.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer1f0cd4.jpg\n\n###### On the tarmac at Shanghai, about to board our connecting flight to Beijing.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer68f8570.jpg\n\n###### Sabrina was getting a little tired.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer6370e2b.jpg\n\n###### On the way to Beijing!!\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer3e45da.jpg\n\n###### One of the first images I took in Beijing.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer400960.jpg\n\n###### The alley way leading to our hostel, you can see the sign in the back \"Sunrise Hostel\" \nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer37b44ef.jpg\n\n###### Severe jetlag = waking up at 4:00 in the morning to explore Beijing.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer38c6101.jpg\n\n###### Later on that morning we were able to taste one of the worst simulated coffee flavored beverages ever to disgrace the face of this earth.

I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; \u201cLe Cordon Bleu\u201d.\n\n### Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I\u2019m now based.\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Site ](https://gustavopasquini.com)\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Shop ](https://gustavopasquini-shop.com)\n\n> ### [Blog Post ](https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/13/puff-pastry-of-chocolate-and-strawberr/)\n\n> ### [Recipe Site ](http://gshow.globo.com/receitas-gshow/receita/folhado-de-chocolate-e-morango-4ee3599be1608c68880013cf.html)\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------", + "category": "food", + "children": 3, + "created": "2016-09-13T19:50:09", + "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": false, + "json_metadata": { + "image": [ + "https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/untitled-design-19.png?w=1000", + "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png", + "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465" + ], + "links": [ + "https://gustavopasquini.com", + "https://gustavopasquini-shop.com", + "https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/13/puff-pastry-of-chocolate-and-strawberr/", + "http://gshow.globo.com/receitas-gshow/receita/folhado-de-chocolate-e-morango-4ee3599be1608c68880013cf.html" + ], + "tags": [ + "food", + "health", + "recipes", + "cooking", + "life" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 109624015013, + "payout": 0.021, + "payout_at": "2016-09-20T19:50:09", + "pending_payout_value": "0.021 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "puff-pastry-of-chocolate-and-strawberr", + "post_id": 1235534, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 17 + }, + "title": "Puff Pastry of Chocolate and Strawberr", + "updated": "2016-09-13T19:50:09", + "url": "/food/@gustavopasquini/puff-pastry-of-chocolate-and-strawberr" + }, + { + "active_votes": [ { -

 Hello friends!  Today, I'm writing my second article about how to move to live on the paradise island. I am talking about the Koh Phangan Island in Thailand. In my first article I wrote about how to get there. Now I want to tell you what to do next.

  Since you arrive to the Island - you have to solve 2 main tasks as fast as you can. There is onl\u0443 thing you should pay attention to. If you come in the high season that is from the 15th of December to 15th of January you may have some problems when searching a house to stay. At this time the Island is full of people, everybody comes to celebrate the New Year, and that is why almost all the houses are occupied. So if you arrive around this time, I advise you to book in your accommodation in advance. Here you can see some reliable Realtors, who will not trick you and do everything very quickly and nicely.  But if you do not plan to come in the high season, you can easily find a suitable accommodation for yourself. As soon as you step out to the dock you get immediately surrounded by a bunch of taxi drivers who want to take you somewhere. It\u2019s better not to use their services, and do everything on your own.

 Your 1st task is to rent a bike by yourself. You can rent it for absolutely any term from 1 day to several months. If you want to stay here for a few months, it is much more profitable to buy it. There are a lot of offers for renting bikes, you can find absolutely any bike for any budget. The average monthly rent varies from 3000 baht  to 7000 baht .(1000 baht=29$)   In my opinion, the best option is to immediately rent a good bike yourself.

it\u2019s the most popular one and it has the best combination of price and quality. It will cost you 5000 baht in average. It is very comfortable, fast and efficient. You can rent it not far from the arrival pier. After you left the pier, you have to go to the left at the first junction towards the roundabout. After that to choose a bike suiting you taste and in the color you need, you should come to every office and bargain. When renting you a bike Thais always take your passport. And if you leave even a tiny scratch on the bike, they will get really angry. They seem to have a national Thai sport \u2013 fooling a foreigner. So a friend of mine paid 3000 for a small scratch, Thais did not want to give him his passport back, and the ferry was already set to sail, so my friend had to pay. Do not forget that you are a guest here and locals dictate the rules of the game here. That's their business. So be careful with a rented bike and protect it as your own.

 At the first day, I recommend you to find any house that you like for a week. You will have a week to drive around the Island and find the place to stay that you really like. In future articles, I will tell you how and where to go that week, and now I'll tell you where you need to go to find a budget place for the first time.  Here you can see the marks of the villages where you can almost always find available and very good accommodation with very good hosts. These houses are not expensive.  For example, such a house can be rented for 13000 baht. For a week the owner asks 4000 baht.

When you find a house and get some rest, it's time to go eat something. The most important meeting point of all the people living on the Island is the food court.

\n

\n

 Anyone can find food for him here. I'll give you more details about it in the following articles. Another very important tip - if it\u2019s your first time on the island, download the map Maps.me and mark there all the important places. Because as soon as it gets dark on the island - everything is changing, and it\u2019s very easy to get lost. Thank you for reading my article. I hope it will be useful to you. See you soon!

I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques.

Each year , the sea level rise of 1-3 mm . If not immediately anticipated , rising sea levels is certainly dangerous for the survival of human beings living on the earth surface . Even more dangerous , several major cities in the world was threatened with sinking due to rising sea levels , the foundation is fragile, as well as ground water extraction . The following eight major cities in the world are threatened with drowning.\n\nShanghai,china\n
\n\n
\nShanghai was once just a place surrounded by swamp . The need for a place to stay and a population that swells create more and more skyscrapers in the area. Not surprisingly , each year the ground in Shanghai dropped half an inch . Based on data from PBS , the surface of the ground in Shanghai fell by around 2.4 meters within the period 1921 to 1965. Experts estimate that the land in Shanghai no longer able to withstand the heavy loads of building on it . Predicted a time Shanghai will sink if the Yangze River overflowed\n\n\n\nSaigon,Vietnam\n
\n\n
\n\nOne of the most populous cities in Southeast Asia is also in danger of drowning. The reduced surface soil make this area prone to flooding . Each year, the floodwaters rose as high as 2cm.\n\n\nBangkok,Thailand\n
\n\n
\nHead of the National Disaster Warning Centre of Thailand , Smith Dharmasaroja , predicted in 2100 Bangkok will be the second Atlantis . The city will sink due to several factors , such as : climate change due to greenhouse effect , rising sea levels , coastal erosion , and landslides . Plus it lies low causing Bangkok every year has flooded.\n\nMumbai,india\n\n\n
\n\n
\nNot much different from Bangkok , a group of Greenpeace activists in 2100 memperkitakan Mumbai city will be submerged by seawater . Rising sea levels of up to 5 meters led to the city's community in the town threatened its sustainability.\nMexico,City\n\n
\n\n
\n\nThis one city each year sunk 20cm in case of flooding . It lies in the valley plus the poor drainage system make Mexico City in danger of drowning. Since 1975 , the city's drainage capacity is down 30 percent . But now the government is pushing for the manufacture of drainage tunnel giant who claimed can hold enough water.\n\n\nNew York\n\n
\n\n
\n\nRising sea levels threaten the city turned out to take part in these United States. Position at the mouth of the Hudson River that connects directly to the Atlantic Ocean helped trigger. Science Daily predict , the city sea water more than doubled compared to other oceans . Not only that , coastal erosion , decreased soil and destruction of the environment can also trigger the overflow of water in the city known as the center of the business world.\n\n\nVenesia,italy\n\n
\n\n
\n\nThe end of 2012 , the city was flooded badly . This phenomenon is present due to a combination of heavy rain and wind from the south . At least 70 percent of the land in the canal city is flooded with a depth of up to 1.5 meters above normal . Flooding was apparently one of the indications that the region of Venice continues to sink . Christian Science Monitor even noted , the city dropped its surface as long as 30 cm over the last 100 years. The rising water level in the Mediterranean Sea canal city likely add it to sink.\n\n\nJakarta,indonesia\n\n\n
\n\n
\n\n\nIn addition to the geographical location of which is under sea level , the need for a high water is considered to be one of the causes of the sinking of the mainland Jakarta . Population continues to increase the main reason for the need for groundwater . In a period of 20 years, the estimated number of residents in the capital increase of up to 40 million people.\n\n\nHydrology expert from the Netherlands , Janjaap Brinkman explained that if the soil water suction process continuously carried out , at the end of the 21st century , Jakarta will sink five to six meters deep . A matter of time Jakarta will sink beneath the sea as the city of Atlantis\n\nThese towns are threatened sinking due to rising sea levels and global warming . If we do not change the way we treat the earth , these cities will be completely submerged without we could do anything. Let's start caring for the environment.!!!\n\n\n\n\nComments and Responses You\nVery I would expect to progress I\nAnd I hope you enjoyed reading this post\n\n\nDon't forget to vote and follow me,\nThanks...\n\n\nBest Regars\n\nhttps://s9.postimg.org/7que1vu0v/20150608150705.jpg\n\nSazkia@Siniceku", + "category": "life", + "children": 0, + "created": "2016-09-13T03:32:03", + "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": false, + "json_metadata": { + "image": [ + "https://s18.postimg.org/d9i0vjmzd/405046_queensland_039_s_flood_disaster.jpg", + "https://s4.postimg.org/s97fe437x/Saigon_Flooding.jpg", + "https://s15.postimg.org/dq72f2v8b/temples_flooded_in_thailand_data.jpg", + "https://s15.postimg.org/fgl6hs59n/28sl3.jpg", + "https://s11.postimg.org/ml22odc4z/f8fcd814_1646_4aaa_ad1e_b4bc111c707c_650x366.jpg", + "https://s12.postimg.org/6g8rm99zx/Yellow_cabs_line_a_flood_010.jpg", + "https://s16.postimg.org/rzrojow7p/628x471.jpg", + "https://s15.postimg.org/3m6tky4kr/335370_jakarta_floods.jpg", + "https://s9.postimg.org/7que1vu0v/20150608150705.jpg" + ], + "tags": [ + "life", + "steemit", + "" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 18699179713, + "payout": 0.004, + "payout_at": "2016-09-20T03:32:03", + "pending_payout_value": "0.004 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "8-big-cities-in-the-world-threatened-drowning", + "post_id": 1227664, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 4 + }, + "title": "8 Big Cities in the World Threatened Drowning", + "updated": "2016-09-13T04:09:21", + "url": "/life/@siniceku/8-big-cities-in-the-world-threatened-drowning" + }, + { + "active_votes": [ { - "rshares": 6017419272738, - "voter": "witness.svk" + "rshares": 289505960501, + "voter": "anonymous" }, { - "rshares": 8668864101, - "voter": "richman" + "rshares": 11832846202341, + "voter": "berniesanders" }, { - "rshares": 165883357441, - "voter": "steve-walschot" + "rshares": 73207228831, + "voter": "nextgenwitness" }, { - "rshares": 16733609471, - "voter": "b4bb4r-5h3r" + "rshares": 259320461975, + "voter": "justin" }, { - "rshares": 39650275501, - "voter": "ranko-k" + "rshares": 751763083749, + "voter": "silver" }, { - "rshares": 56501687416, - "voter": "kus-knee" + "rshares": 1824730859114, + "voter": "silversteem" }, { - "rshares": 76741877365, - "voter": "lizik" + "rshares": 1820462096986, + "voter": "nextgencrypto" }, { - "rshares": 5286973601, - "voter": "tee-em" + "rshares": 4106086052684, + "voter": "wang" }, { - "rshares": 30495878334, - "voter": "michaelx" + "rshares": 156879417233, + "voter": "steemservices" }, { - "rshares": 17023109715, - "voter": "albertogm" + "rshares": 10522506095, + "voter": "steemservices1" }, { - "rshares": 783296766, - "voter": "mammasitta" + "rshares": 6136428479, + "voter": "bentley" }, { - "rshares": 471516850, - "voter": "mrhankeh" + "rshares": 1766931218, + "voter": "murh" }, { - "rshares": 68200380711, - "voter": "bacchist" + "rshares": 198951596446, + "voter": "the-alien" }, { - "rshares": 1210050218327, - "voter": "renohq" + "rshares": 2856868618, + "voter": "steemswede" }, { - "rshares": 14880181090, - "voter": "ausbitbank" + "rshares": 43156587681, + "voter": "mrwang" }, { - "rshares": 33653917190, - "voter": "toxonaut" + "rshares": 4101540390, + "voter": "lpfaust" }, { - "rshares": 85512692, - "voter": "snowden" + "rshares": 174462677, + "voter": "uwe69" }, { - "rshares": 38758863864, - "voter": "biophil" + "rshares": 10809284473, + "voter": "gargon" }, { - "rshares": 1817255932, - "voter": "kendewitt" + "rshares": 204980081, + "voter": "party1999" }, { - "rshares": 87223247, - "voter": "wildchild" + "rshares": 14496122032, + "voter": "thecurator" }, { - "rshares": 2434921863, - "voter": "the-future" + "rshares": 60824216, + "voter": "lchazen" }, { - "rshares": 3848107418, - "voter": "bitcoiner" + "rshares": 979076276, + "voter": "kalipo" + } + ], + "author": "lchazen", + "author_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "author_reputation": 46.94, + "beneficiaries": [], + "blacklists": [], + "body": "http://i67.tinypic.com/ncjk03.jpg\n\nThe information below could be helpful to anyone out there who wants to know more about the connection between depression (and other mental illnesses) and creativity. If the findings are correct, and the \"mentally ill\" have so much to offer, then what does this say about how society tends to treat of this segment of society?\n\nConsciousness, introspection, self-awareness, and abstract thinking have no basis in scientific measurement (Swerdlow, 1995). Science, however, seems to be heading in this direction. Humans have this need for explanation, and as such, we have discovered that the planum temporale in the left hemisphere, a part of the brain associated with auditory processing, is larger in musicians than in non-musicians, and is larger still in musicians with perfect pitch. Other research indicates that van Gogh may have suffered from temporal lobe epilepsy, which triggered electrical hyperactivity of the brain (Swerdlow, 1995).\n\nThere are more recent cases which point to physiology as it effects the creative process. By the 1950\u2019s, Howard Hughes had established himself as a filmmaker, inventor, designer, engineer, industrialist and businessman. By the 1970\u2019s, he was said to be one of the most eccentric people in America, living in isolation, giving out strict orders to his staff on how to maintain cleanliness, once test landing a plane some five thousand times when only twenty or so was necessary, and generally living out a life of extraordinarily bizarre behaviors. Yet, no one questioned this, intervened or even insisted that he get help!! Why? Perhaps, they thought this was common for a creative genius, man of his caliber, or normal for the rich and famous to act peculiar. What we know now is that Howard Hughes was suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder (Osborne, 1998). PET scans reveal that the brain of someone suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder is overactive, particularly the section known as the caudate nucleus. The entire frontal cortex of a person with this condition literally lights up when compared to a person without the condition. The mental activity that made Hughes a great genius, was also slowly killing him.\n\nWhat I have learned in my study of this disorder is that what makes some people crazy, can also make them creative, or great if they choose. Winston Churchill and Martin Luther, both great leaders in their time, suffered the effects of mental illness. Churchill had terrible depression and Martin Luther, though it wasn\u2019t called this at the time, had obsessive compulsive disorder. Martin Luther was said to be scrupulous, literally asking for forgiveness more than twenty times a day for acts committed that day (Jamision, 1995). There is an endless list of people that I have read or heard about that suffered from mental illness and were also creative. Is there a connection?\n\nIt would be hard to imagine that there is not. The brain is acting in such a way as to stimulate thought, insight, imagination, excitement and emotion. What we do not manifest into some creative outlet is likely to take its toll in another equally profound way. A few years ago, I had a conversation with a doctor concerning his son and his son\u2019s outrageous, counter productive behavior in my classroom. When we discussed the possible reasons, his answer was that his son acted this way, not because he meant any harm or disrespect, but because \u201chis brain required it.\u201d Acting out, creating, being weird, whatever we wish to call it is really the brain\u2019s way of achieving the balance it needs.\n\nEdward O. Wilson, in Consilience, discusses this very notion on the section involving dreaming. He reports that in a dream state, the person is really insane. What he means is that these images, thoughts, impulses, if occurring during a cognizant, awake state would classify any of us as insane. What is going on during one of these states is interesting. The amines that the brain normally produces \u2013 such as norepinephrine and serotonin run low. Wilson suggests that the brain, in a dream state, is compensating for low levels of these chemicals by producing fantastic images. Take this a step further and one can see why artists and creative people tend to be so depressed. They too are compensating. They want so badly to get out of this state and the only option is a creation of their own doing, something so amazing that it literally alters their brain chemistry! It would naturally follow that the deeper one feels depression the more creative they are apt to be. The \"normal\" nine-to-five crowd, to some, is uninspiring and unimaginative. Well, they don\u2019t need to be. Perhaps their brains do not require it.\n\nJulia Cameron (1992), in the Artist\u2019s way, confirms this, though in a less scientific way. She says, that our brightest ideas are often \u201cproceeded by a gestation period that is inferior, murky, and completely necessary.\u201d People seeking to reach that perfect state of creativity toy with these brain levels, trying to find the perfect amount of sadness or joy or whatever emotion will propel their project to great heights of pure creativity. When such levels are insufficient, they turn to exercise, thrill seeking, or worse, coffee, tobacco, alcohol and worse yet, drugs. It is really a never ending battle for the perfect state of being, and the perfect state of creative contribution.\n\nSpalding Gray (1985) writes about this in his cult classic, Swimming to Cambodia. As an actor in the movie The Killing Fields, he swore not to leave Thailand until he had achieved what he called the \u201cperfect moment.\u201d To paraphrase, the perfect moment was to him, that moment when everything came together, producing an amazing experience (Gray, 1985). This was the experience that one would remember most, the experience that would define the journey, the one to tell family and friends about. For Michael Jordan, it was important to leave basketball at the peak of his game, probably in a moment not too different from what Gray was writing about. Jordan, was in effect, the writer of the play on his life. As director, why not make it dramatic, thrilling, emotional, or even perfect?\n\nDoes this have implications for education? Without a doubt it does. Here we are, teachers directing students, literally taking away their control, their ability to form personal meaning and imposing, almost forcing content down their throats. Yet, we somehow expect them to learn from this?! Eric Jensen\u2019s (1998) research in Teaching with the Brain in Mind would probably caution against this, noting that \u201cemotion helps reason to focus the mind and set priorities. Many researchers now believe that emotion and reason are not opposites. For example, our logical side says, \u2018set a goal.\u2019 But only our emotions get us passionate enough even to care enough to act on that goal.\u201d (Daniel Goleman, 1995) argues that emotions are equally important to basic logic when making a decision. Perhaps the answer to this is to allow the students more control in decision making, in personal choice making, not just at home but at school.\n\nNote: This was excerpted from a paper I wrote while attending graduate school in Chico, CA.", + "category": "creativity", + "children": 8, + "created": "2016-09-12T18:09:51", + "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": false, + "json_metadata": { + "image": [ + "http://i67.tinypic.com/ncjk03.jpg" + ], + "tags": [ + "creativity", + "artists", + "depression", + "education", + "" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 21409018572096, + "payout": 33.021, + "payout_at": "2016-09-19T18:09:51", + "pending_payout_value": "33.021 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "the-connection-between-creativity-and-mental-illness", + "post_id": 1222406, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 22 + }, + "title": "The Connection Between Creativity and Mental Illness", + "updated": "2016-09-13T00:59:33", + "url": "/creativity/@lchazen/the-connection-between-creativity-and-mental-illness" + }, + { + "active_votes": [ + { + "rshares": 6320112756502, + "voter": "smooth" }, { -

The show, which is set in Miami, is about 3 people from completely different walks of life getting together to create a (stable)cryptocurrency to change the world. It made me think about my decision to move back to Miami, and I wanted to share with you. \n\nhttp://i.imgur.com/QVMcQUH.jpg\n###### The ride back to Downtown from South Beach\n\n\nA year ago, my boyfriend and I both quit our jobs at the same time to work on his crypto project full time. It was one of the scariest, exciting, and fulfilling periods of my life. We were living together in Queens, NY at the time and were quickly becoming disillusioned with the expense, stress, sounds, and smells of New York City life. We mused about moving all over the world from Spain, to Thailand, Germany, Texas, the list went on...\n\nI thought long and hard about suggesting my hometown of Miami--I thought I had left it for good. I was born in Miami Beach and spent most of the first 18 years of my life living with my family in the same house in North Miami. Both of my parents worked a lot, so I spent a lot of time with my nanny, \u00cdnes, from Colombia. I speak Spanish to her and English to my parents. \n\nI got to grow up in a place where I was exposed to people from pretty much every different background you could imagine. I got to live in the aftermath of our diplomatic interaction with Cuba. Many of my friend's parents came to Miami on the [Mariel boatlift](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariel_boatlift). I got to learn Creole and eat amazing things my parents never would have exposed me to (for example, [Goat Curry](http://caribbeanpot.com/the-ultimate-curry-goat-recipe/)...YUM!!) with my friends from school. I got to spend weekends sailing to islands with my Dad's \"boat friends\", shooting the shit, snorkeling, soaking up sun, and getting salty hair curls. I've seen alligators, crocs, manatees, dolphins, peacocks, and so much more living in the wild. I can't believe it took me leaving to realize how lucky I was. \n\nhttp://i.imgur.com/l9HLcTC.jpg\n###### Playing Apples to Apples at Sea on New Years\n\nhttp://i.imgur.com/J8knNOj.jpg\n###### Gators in the Everglades on a High School Field Trip\n\n## After a lot of thought, we decided on Miami, and (if you need less nostalgic reasons) here's why:\n\n\n### No Snow\n\nYup, that's right! Toss out your winter coats, cause you don't need 'em! It's warm and sunny almost all the time (yes, we get hurricanes) Every year at Christmas I float in a pool and drink eggnog. It's flip flops and sundresses all year round! Beach Picnic for Valentine's Day? No problem. Halloween Pool Party? Go for it! In Miami, outdoors is always an option. (Again, unless there's a hurricane. Then don't go outside.)\n\nhttp://i.imgur.com/JfucfI8.jpg\n###### My Old Backyard Shortly Before a Hurricane\n\nhttp://i.imgur.com/XShlu8K.jpg\n\n### More Money\n\nIf you're going to live in the US, there are few states where you [don't pay State Income Tax](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_income_tax#States_with_no_individual_income_tax). Florida is one of them. When I lived in NYC, I had to pay Federal, State, AND City Income Tax on my low, early-stage-startup salary. You don't end up getting much of a take home--even if you make good money. In Florida, not only are the taxes low, but since we're have a major import port and things don't have to travel very far to get to our stores, everything-especially food-is much cheaper. My rent is much lower than in NYC, too, and I get to live more central to the city, which I like. More money also means a longer runway for your startup and investors money goes a longer way!\n\nhttp://i.imgur.com/JjHV1vu.jpg\n###### Getting Some Juice Straight from The Grove!\n\n### Startup Friendly\n\nIn 2015, [Miami passed San Jose and reached up to the #2 city for Startup Activity in the US](http://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/miami-is-now-number-two-for-startup-activity-7802965). Last year, Miami also had the highest concentration of startups by population. Because of reasons one and two, there's a lot of investor Money in the city of Miami. Rich old guys love to retire here, play golf, and fund pet projects. Anecdotally, I've seen a lot more VC activity this year in Miami than I've seen in the last couple years. We've started to get [hip coding bootcamps](https://wyncode.co/), [innovation centers](https://www.microsoftinnovationcenters.com/locations/miami), startup oriented co-working spaces--all with Miami cultural flare (and, of course, our new, delicious, [local craft brews](https://www.timeout.com/miami/bars/best-craft-beer-bars-in-miami)). \n\n### Excitement\n\nIf you hear something weird on the news, chances are, it probably happened in Florida. From [throwing gators into drive through windows](http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2016/04/08/video-released-customer-throwing-alligator-through-wendys-drive-thru/), to (multiple!!) [face-eating incidents](http://www.miamiherald.com/news/state/florida/article95896387.html), to the good ol' days of the [Cocaine Cowboys](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocaine_Cowboys), you can bet that you'll never be bored in Florida. \n\n### My Parents Moved to Sarasota\n\nSorry Mom and Dad, I love you guys, but I want at least a couple hours between us so I can live my life. Lucky for me, it's a nice 3 hour drive right across Alligator Ally. Many of my friend's parents moved over there after we went to University or moved out. \n###### Side note: @charlieshrem I'm so sad I can't come up visit my parents and go to your dinner chat because I'm going to Devcon, but I REALLY want to meet you. I hope you're down here again soon! \n\n\n## So, why are all you startup guys killing yourselves to live in NYC or Cali? Come unwind, thaw out, and get your hustle on!

My name is Jane, of course it\u2019s an alias. I studied economics at a top university in Thailand but I wasn\u2019t as good as my friend, Lena. Lena by that time was chubby and had acne scars on her pinkish cheeks. She was the smartest student in our class. She\u2019s fluent in English because she\u2019s from an international school in Bangkok while I\u2019m from the countryside. I consider my English to be poor. We both stayed in the university dorm because our university is far from Bangkok. While I stayed at the dorm throughout the semester, Lena would go back home every weekend. We became close friends as freshmen because we shared classes and activities together. That changed when we turned sophomores because we were in different majors and rarely had a chance to talk anymore. As far as I know, she got first class honor when she graduated. Then we lost complete contact after that.\n \nFor those who don\u2019t know what a pathological liar is, I have a short explanation here. Pathological liars are people who continually lie or make up stories that never exist in their lives. Their lying tends to be their normal manner or habit. You can find more information here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathological_lying . Anyway, after 7 years I graduated in 2015. Thanks (or maybe no thanks) to Facebook, I finally met Lena again. I added her as a Facebook friend and according to her profile it seems like she\u2019s changed a lot from when I knew her during our freshman year at the university. Lena is slimmer! There are not many pictures of her on Facebook. As I can tell from her pictures on Facebook, Lena seemed to be so shy. I can\u2019t see her face clearly. I only remember her long, light, beautiful, brown hair as she always dyed it when she was at the university. She also seemed to have a luxurious life. She always checked in at hi-class restaurants, posting food pictures. Dozens of likes and comments about her life and food are always common as she had over 300 friends on Facebook; \u201cI\u2019m so jealous\u201d, \u201cI want to go to that restaurant\u201d, \u201cYou are so beautiful\u201d. As for me, I can only afford one of those luxurious dinners a month or less because my mortgage already takes out one third of my salary.\n \nOne day, while I was walking in a city center department store, I noticed that Lena checked in at the same department store as I was. I spontaneously texted her on Facebook messenger: Hey Lena, I saw you check in, I\u2019m at Paragon (the department store) too! She replied, \u201cNice, wanna meet up? I\u2019m at Mandarin Oriental Shop B floor with my boyfriend and his parents\u201d (oooh, that's a very luxurious shop). She offered \u201cI can go out and meet you at the food court for a minute\u201d. I spontaneously replied \u201cNope, it\u2019s ok. Thanks for asking. You\u2019re with your bf's parents. I don\u2019t think you should leave them. We can meet later. I won\u2019t\u2019 bother you. Enjoy dinner! Here\u2019s my number and line ID, we can talk via line.\" Note to reader: In Thailand, Line is the most popular messenger app. You can also create a group chat and so on. \n\nThat night Lena sent me line message. Hey Jane. I\u2019m so sorry for today. I wanna meet you! How is life? I saw you on Facebook. What are you doing? Lots of questions, lots of updates came in that night and days after. Lena told me her story about her family, boyfriend and friends. Her family business sells tractors and luxurious cars. Lena wants to open a coffee shop chain in a new (being built) department store but her father asked that she do more research before investing in this business.\n\nLena has a boyfriend, Tim, who owns a tour company. They\u2019ve been dating for 1 year. She has a close friend named Jonathan, aka Jonno. Lena told me that she does\u2019t have many friends and Jonno is the closest one. The reason why they are so close is because Jonno is a friend and also an employee to Lena\u2019s father who's hired him to take care of her almost 24/7 with a salary of 5K (Me: what the\u2026!!!). Since Jonno is gay, her father trusts him to do this job (taking care of her like a nanny). \n\nOne day we manage to meet for dinner. Finally, an in-person meeting! I met Lena at a restaurant. When she walked into the restaurant Lena looked so gorgeous. Lena is so slim now. She\u2019s prettier than she was at the university. Lena explained that the reason she is so slim is because she got brokenhearted by her ex who is a consul. They lived far apart. They rarely met. She also told me that her current boyfriend is so boring. They had bad SEX! (Me: Oyyoiyoi! She was telling me her private life!). We caught up a lot and she said she will introduce Jonno to me later when we meet again. Oh my! I became closer to her after the first meeting.

I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; \u201cLe Cordon Bleu\u201d.\n\n### Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I\u2019m now based.\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Site ](https://gustavopasquini.com)\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Shop ](https://gustavopasquini-shop.com)\n\n> ### [Blog Post ](https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/12/beef-fillet-wellington/)\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465", + "category": "food", + "children": 6, + "created": "2016-09-12T14:09:18", + "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", + "depth": 0, + "is_paidout": false, + "json_metadata": { + "image": [ + "https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/untitled-design-16.png?w=620&h=465", + "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png", + "https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465" + ], + "links": [ + "https://gustavopasquini.com", + "https://gustavopasquini-shop.com", + "https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/12/beef-fillet-wellington/" + ], + "tags": [ + "food", + "health", + "recipes", + "cooking", + "life" + ] + }, + "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", + "net_rshares": 179029722633, + "payout": 0.045, + "payout_at": "2016-09-19T14:09:18", + "pending_payout_value": "0.045 HBD", + "percent_hbd": 10000, + "permlink": "beef-fillet-wellington", + "post_id": 1219992, + "reblogs": 0, + "replies": [], + "stats": { + "flag_weight": 0.0, + "gray": false, + "hide": false, + "total_votes": 17 + }, + "title": "Beef Fillet Wellington", + "updated": "2016-09-12T15:10:36", + "url": "/food/@gustavopasquini/beef-fillet-wellington" + }, + { + "active_votes": [ + { + "rshares": 7861629418, + "voter": "woo7739" }, { - "rshares": 403404632817, - "voter": "charlieshrem" + "rshares": 23936664613, + "voter": "alexgr" }, { - "rshares": 61821059989, - "voter": "tracemayer" + "rshares": 353367913, + "voter": "murh" }, { - "rshares": 3073603178, - "voter": "landofcrypto" + "rshares": 91847003822, + "voter": "mctiller" }, { - "rshares": 474509334, - "voter": "anomaly" + "rshares": 6846836651, + "voter": "micheletrainer" }, { - "rshares": 232237691, - "voter": "dedi" + "rshares": 392021847294, + "voter": "ericvancewalton" }, { - "rshares": 61292139, - "voter": "inarix03" + "rshares": 18758871337, + "voter": "mindover" }, { - "rshares": 382602825, - "voter": "ola1" + "rshares": 26177376830, + "voter": "strangerarray" }, { - "rshares": 1616265191, - "voter": "robotev" + "rshares": 1353435083444, + "voter": "renohq" }, { - "rshares": 1288421610, - "voter": "aksinya" + "rshares": 2697564872, + "voter": "future24" }, { - "rshares": 53375937, - "voter": "ninjapainter" + "rshares": 6998560158, + "voter": "cristi" }, { - "rshares": 1539512961, - "voter": "yanik" + "rshares": 1625494481, + "voter": "freewill" }, { - "rshares": 1630327346, - "voter": "rusteemitblog" + "rshares": 4162000203, + "voter": "steemitpatina" }, { - "rshares": 651666019, - "voter": "ysa" + "rshares": 62192336, + "voter": "lovetosteemit" }, { - "rshares": 74838700, - "voter": "dealzgal" + "rshares": 7514506798, + "voter": "lukeofkondor" }, { - "rshares": 68013381, - "voter": "storage" + "rshares": 59594290, + "voter": "sunjo" }, { - "rshares": 58460105, - "voter": "blackmarket" + "rshares": 179120276, + "voter": "anomaly" }, { - "rshares": 61530871, - "voter": "gifts" + "rshares": 197331756, + "voter": "mlialen" }, { - "rshares": 156881056, - "voter": "alexandrapop" + "rshares": 1515493330, + "voter": "robotev" }, { - "rshares": 96643251, - "voter": "expat" + "rshares": 544309621, + "voter": "grisha-danunaher" }, { - "rshares": 1626865374, - "voter": "steemlift" + "rshares": 185189971, + "voter": "mexresorts" }, { - "rshares": 138651704, - "voter": "toddemaher1" + "rshares": 149960579, + "voter": "mikerano" } ], - "author": "bkkshadow", + "author": "micheletrainer", "author_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "author_reputation": 54.39, + "author_reputation": 58.35, "beneficiaries": [], "blacklists": [], - "body": "

Earlier this year I was married in a traditional Thai marriage ceremony in the north of Thailand and I thought some of you may be interested about what goes on. I can tell you it's lots of fun mixed with a healthy dose of traditions. If you have a short attention span then feel free to watch the 5 minute video. I've put it at the top, it has groovy music and captures the essence of the day. \n\nFor those of you who would like to know more, then keep scrolling as I go into pain-staking detail of each of the sections of the wedding along with some pictures. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it, it was certainly a day I will never forget.\n\nLet me tell you I posted this story in the early days of steemit and I think about 6 people saw it. So I have edited it a bit and formatted it to look better. So, I hope you are OK with my re-post. Thanks\n

1.THE KHAN MAAK PROCESSION

\n
THE KHAN MAAK PROCESSION:
\n

Ok. So first things first. We have to come to the house, and we can't just rock up and knock on the door and say "Heh we are here for the wedding!". No, that wouldn't do. I must collect my rabbly entourage of family and friends and assorted village vagabonds and assemble them at a point a few hundred metres up the road. From here we must sing, dance and shout our impending arrival as we make our way up the street.

\n

The procession is lead by the groom\u2019s representative or (\u201c\u0e40\u0e16\u0e49\u0e32\u0e41\u0e01\u0e48) Thao Gae\u201d, in this case it was a professor from my wife's university. He was my guide, and helper as I had never done this before. I got the idea that it wasn't his first time at the rodeo. Also as a respected guest he was going to help me gain entry to the fortress that lay ahead. Joining us were my parents, relatives and friends carrying flowers, incenses, candles and gifts, all which were required for the ceremony. Also at the front of the procession were drummers and traditional folk dancers, who making all the banging, clanging and swirling to announce our arrival to everybody in the surrounding village.

\n

Banana leaves and sugar cane storks were given to some of the stronger members to carry, while others had the responsibility of bringing the traditional gifts of the Kan Maak, which included rice, sesame seeds, some small amounts of Thai food for the feast, a selection of Thai desserts. I'd been told sometimes a pigs head was involved, but thankfully not today. My brother and one of my wife's aunt were entrusted with the monetary gifts and other precious items, such as gold and jewellery, which would make up the dowry. A lot of these gifts represent important aspects of marriage, such as health, prosperity, fertility and longevity.

\n

2. PASSING THROUGH THE GATES (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e01\u0e31\u0e49\u0e19\u0e1b\u0e23\u0e30\u0e15\u0e39)

\n
PASSING THROUGH THE GATES (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e01\u0e31\u0e49\u0e19\u0e1b\u0e23\u0e30\u0e15\u0e39)
\n

In order for the wedding to commence, I had to first collect my bride-to-be from her room inside the family house. Simple enough? Not really.....To do this I had to successfully navigate through a series of gates which only opened upon completion of certain challenges. These symbolic barriers would only be opened once I had proved my worth to the keepers of the \u201clocks\u201d.

\n

Normally, there are just 3 of these symbolic \u201cgates\u201d, but sometimes there may be more, and in my case there were. The gates were made up of strings of orchids, or chains of silver and gold, and each one was held by either close friends or young family members of the bride. I think I sang, danced and bribed my way through 9 gates before I made it to the house mostly in one piece, Indiana Jones would have been proud.. thankfully, my " Thao Gae" (I mentioned him earlier) was a shrewd negotiator and also commanded a bit of respect.

\n

As I passed each challenge, the toll for each subsequent \u201cgate\u201d continually increased as I advanced. I gave the first few gatekeepers 100 Baht ( about $3) to open the door. By the time I got to the last road-block I think her teenage cousins wrangled 1,000 Baht ($30 each) out of me, not bad for 5 minutes work...This wass undoubtedly one of the most frivolous and fun parts of the wedding as I bartered with the various gatekeepers to let me through.

\n

3. MONKS BLESSING

\n

\n
Monks Blessing
\n

Once the gates have been successfully negotiated, I was allowed to collect the bride from her room to continue the next part of ceremony which was the monks blessing. We had 9 monks (auspicious number) and they chanted their way through a succession of blessings whilst a lit candle was placed in a bowl of water. This water was then used later to bless us. A bowl of white paste was also blessed which was also used later to anoint our foreheads, you may notice the white dots on our faces.

\n

Although more solemn than the previous shenanigans on the way in, I still enjoyed this moment very much. The eldest monk has known my wife since the day she was born and watched her grow into the woman she is today.

\n

After the chanting had finished, we offered food to the monks. Nobody else wass permitted to eat until the monks had finished their meal. After they had eaten, they took no further part in the ceremony, and after a brief chat, they trundled up the road back to the temple.

\n

4. COUNTING THE DOWRY (\u0e2a\u0e34\u0e19\u0e2a\u0e2d\u0e14)

\n


\n

\n
Counting The Dowry
\n

Next is the dowry ceremony. This is the part which is often difficult for foreigners to comprehend. I admit, for me, it goes against most of what I believe marriage to be about, however, it is an important part of the traditional ceremony, so we compromise in marriage, and I compromised. The dowry is a symbol that the groom is financially able to care for his new wife.The concept of sinsod was initially brought in to ensure that one\u2019s daughter did not marry below her potential standing in life. To stipulate that her social, financial and professional status and reputation is preserved and secured. Although this is less relevant nowadays, the tradition remains.

\n

So my dowry was formally presented by my parents to my bride\u2019s mum on the Kan Maak tray. This particular dowry consisted of some money, gold, and jewellery, but may also include title deeds to property in some cases. The dowry was then counted out onto a red cloth by my bride\u2019s mum. She put on a bit of a pantomime that it was too heavy to pick up. The amount of the dowry had been predetermined, (Please don't ask how much).
\n

\n

There is no set amount, the sum of sinsod is typically determined on the one hand by suitor\u2019s perceived wealth, and on the other hand by the \u201cvalue\u201d of the future wife. Her beauty, personality, background, education and other qualifications.More often than not, a part of the money is used to pay for the wedding ceremonies, parties and other related expenses. Dowries or sinsod payments range from THB 50,000 to 500,000 ($1500-$1500) and up.

\n

5. THE ENGAGEMENT (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e2b\u0e21\u0e31\u0e49\u0e19)

\n


\n

\n
The Engagement
\n

Traditionally, the engagement is performed well in advance of the wedding, just as in western culture, but recently, it has become common for it to be carried out on the wedding day after Counting the Dowry. I mean, we got engaged about 6 months earlier, but we rolled the ceremonial aspect of this into the wedding. The engagement was a way of introducing the bride to the groom, who had been selected by her parents and gave a chance for the couple to get acquainted before the wedding, but nowadays most couples choose their own partners, as we obviously did ;)

\n

At this point, we exchanged rings, and I also took the jewellery from Sin Sod tray and placed them on my bride as well. The exchange is performed in front of the parents of both parties.

\n

6. THE THREAD AND WATER POURING (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e2b\u0e25\u0e31\u0e48\u0e07\u0e19\u0e49\u0e33\u0e1e\u0e23\u0e30\u0e1e\u0e38\u0e17\u0e18\u0e21\u0e19\u0e15\u0e4c)

\n


\n

\n
The Thread and Water Pouring
\n

After the Sin Sod ceremony was finished, we got ready for water pouring ceremony.The water pouring is the most important part of the Thai wedding ceremony as during this part the couple officially become husband (\u0e2a\u0e32\u0e21\u0e35) and wife (\u0e20\u0e23\u0e23\u0e22\u0e32). Traditionally, this was all that was required to validate the marriage, but nowadays the couple are also required to obtain a marriage certificate (\u0e17\u0e30\u0e40\u0e1a\u0e35\u0e22\u0e19\u0e2a\u0e21\u0e23\u0e2a) from the local registration office (Shh. we haven't done that yet).

\n

Before the water pouring took place, we must seat ourselves at the traditional water pouring tables (\u0e15\u0e31\u0e48\u0e07\u0e23\u0e14\u0e19\u0e49\u0e33 [Dtang Rot Naam]), with the bride to the left of the groom. We each had a ceremonial headdress (\u0e21\u0e07\u0e04\u0e25 [Mong Kol]) , made from one piece of cotton forming a circle and signifying the joining of us as a couple, placed upon our heads. The Mong Kol had been previously been blessed by the Buddhist monks earlier in the wedding.

\n

Then senior members of the family or special guests of honor performed the anointing of our foreheads with three dots of white powder to represent the shape of a pyramid. Traditionally, the powder is made of dirt or clay, ground, and mixed with holy water and blessed by Buddhist monks. As with all of the ceremony\u2019s traditional customs, the ritual is meant to bring good fortune to the couple. (more dots)

\n

We were ready for the water pouring to commence once we had placed both hands (palms together), overhanging the water pouring table and positioned above flowers that were arranged in a water tray, to capture the water that ran off. Each of the elder guests in turn will take the ceremonial water pouring conch shell (\u0e2a\u0e31\u0e07\u0e02\u0e4c\u0e23\u0e14\u0e19\u0e49\u0e33), which had been freshly filled with holy water from the Buddhist ceremony, and poured a trickle of water from the base of our thumbs to the fingertips over the groom and then the bride. Most also used this opportunity to give us their congratulations and best wishes.

\n

7. THE BRIDAL BED (\u0e1e\u0e34\u0e18\u0e35\u0e2a\u0e48\u0e07\u0e15\u0e31\u0e27)

\n

\n
The Bridal Bed
\n

After the water pouring ceremony was completed, we were sent to their bedroom. This is where things got a little weird. This is just a part of the wedding ceremony, we were not going to bed for real just yet. : ) although by this stage I was getting exhausted and could have used a little nap.

\n

The bed will was prepared by a married couple who had been happily married for a long time, in this case my mum and dad. Their knowledge and good luck was then imparted to us in a number of different ways. Nine meaningful items were placed on the bed as symbols of prosperity and fertility. They didn't really know what to do either do we kind of ad-libbed this a bit. But the goods on the bed were:

\n
    \n
  • One big brass tray (\u0e1e\u0e32\u0e19\u0e17\u0e2d\u0e07\u0e40\u0e2b\u0e25\u0e37\u0e2d\u0e07\u0e43\u0e2b\u0e0d\u0e48)
    • \n
  • A mortar as a symbol of steadily love (\u0e04\u0e23\u0e01\u0e1a\u0e14\u0e22\u0e32 \u0e2b\u0e21\u0e32\u0e22\u0e16\u0e36\u0e07 \u0e08\u0e34\u0e15\u0e43\u0e08\u0e2b\u0e19\u0e31\u0e01\u0e41\u0e19\u0e48\u0e19)
    • \n
  • A cane as a symbol of long life (\u0e44\u0e21\u0e49\u0e40\u0e17\u0e49\u0e32 \u0e2b\u0e21\u0e32\u0e22\u0e16\u0e36\u0e07 \u0e2d\u0e32\u0e22\u0e38\u0e22\u0e37\u0e19)
    • \n
  • A green squash as a symbol of happy and peaceful married life (\u0e1f\u0e31\u0e01\u0e40\u0e02\u0e35\u0e22\u0e27 \u0e2b\u0e21\u0e32\u0e22\u0e16\u0e36\u0e07 \u0e04\u0e27\u0e32\u0e21\u0e2d\u0e22\u0e39\u0e48\u0e40\u0e22\u0e47\u0e19\u0e40\u0e1b\u0e47\u0e19\u0e2a\u0e38\u0e02)
    • \n

    • \n
  • A bowl of rain water as a symbol of harmony (\u0e02\u0e31\u0e19\u0e43\u0e2a\u0e48\u0e19\u0e49\u0e33\u0e1d\u0e19 \u0e04\u0e27\u0e32\u0e21\u0e2a\u0e32\u0e21\u0e31\u0e04\u0e04\u0e35 \u0e1b\u0e47\u0e19\u0e19\u0e49\u0e33\u0e2b\u0e19\u0e43\u0e08\u0e40\u0e14\u0e35\u0e22\u0e27\u0e01\u0e31\u0e19)

    • \n
\n

Tradition states that we the newly-weds must sleep with these objects in the bed for the next 3 nights. And, yes we did.

\n

Act. 2 - The Thai Wedding Party (Reception as we know it)

\n


\nWhen Thai couples tie the knot, there are two wedding events; traditional Thai ceremony and the wedding party. Most do both in the same day with the traditional Thai ceremony in the morning followed by the party in the afternoon or evening. Some couples prefer to do them on a separate day. We did ours on the same day. We got a brief 30 minute respite in which to update our Facebook status (lol) and do a Superman costume change into the afternoon's attire.

\n

We held the party in an empty field next to the house, which suited me fine, as I'm not a fan of dingy hotel ballrooms. The torrential rain from the night before held off, and apart from a bit of mud underfoot, all was well.

\n

\n

A Thai wedding party is usually large (aka huge). We probably only had about 50 people for the ceremony in the morning but we catered for 800 for the party....Yes 800... Parents will invite almost every single person they know; family members, relatives, colleagues, neighbors and of course it includes the immediate family of those guests. The more people the parents and the couple know, the bigger the wedding. It appears my wife's family knew everyone in the surrounding village even if my wife didn't have a clue who half of them were.

\n

This is due to the Thai custom about \u2018face\u2019 \u2013 especially if the family has important status in the society. If you don\u2019t invite someone, they will feel insulted and you could lose the relationship with them. Often the wedding of the children is like a reunion party for the parents. For us, it involved lots and lots of picture taking followed by more picture taking. There was some food in there somewhere, along with a band and some more traditional dancers.
\n

\n

Thai people don\u2019t usually give wedding gifts, instead they give cash. When the guest receives the wedding invitation, they will use the envelope of the invitation card to put the cash in. Then when they arrive at the wedding party\u2019s reception, there will be money boxes for the guests to put the cash envelope in. You can also write wishes for the wedding couple in a guest-book prepared at the reception and receive a wedding souvenir.

\n

Lighting the candles & Cutting the Cake

\n

\n

Before cutting the cake, the wedding couple will light up three auspicious candles (\u0e40\u0e17\u0e35\u0e22\u0e19\u0e21\u0e07\u0e04\u0e25 ).
\nAfter that the cake was cut and we served it to out parents and closest relatives first. Pretty sure that big cake was just for show, and we had a smaller one for devouring.

\n

Eat, Drink and be Merry

\n

The rest of the afternoon was spent eating, drinking and chatting with the guests who remained. It's quite common for many of the guests to vanish quite quickly, as people get back to work or other activities. Regardless, a group of us stayed on till late in the evening recounting tales of times past.

\n

When the party was finished, we had to count the money they received and also make a note of the amount of the money they receive from each guest, so when they are invited to the guest\u2019s wedding or the wedding of the guest\u2019s child, they should put more money in the envelope.

\n

\n

Stay tuned for Pt.2

\n

Part 2: The Thai Beach Wedding, where we have a Western Ceremony by the beach. Yes we had 2 weddings, No that's not actually weird for foreign/Thai couples.

Mix the mayonnaise with pickles, olives and finely chopped egg\n\n### 2. Season with olive oil and Worcestershire sauce to taste\n\n### 3. If you want more sophisticated add some white raisins, seeded, chopped\n\n### 4. Place a little of the filling carefully over the slices of ham and wrap them\n\n### 5. Serve on lettuce leaves chopped\n\n### 6. It\u2019s a great cold starter and very decorative\n\n### 7. If you wish to serve as canap\u00e9s, just cut each roll in half and secure with a silver toothpick\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png\n\n# About Me\n\n### In 2012 I began my cooking journey in Brasil and studied at \u201cSenac, Juiz de Fora\u201d, in Minas Gerais, developing my basic culinary techniques.\n\n### Later I worked in a local restaurant, and rose to a role in management, helping to increase the clientele base. I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; \u201cLe Cordon Bleu\u201d.\n\n### Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I\u2019m now based.\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Site ](https://gustavopasquini.com)\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Shop ](https://gustavopasquini-shop.com)\n\n> ### [Blog Post ](https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/14/rolls-of-ham-and-mayonnaise/)\n\n> ### [Recipe Site ](http://www.tudogostoso.com.br/receita/46066-rolinhos-de-presunto-e-maionese.html)\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------", -

We were stuck in Vancouver Canada, with just about enough money to pay the bills, but not much to do anything else. One thing we really truly love is traveling and exploring places we have never been, but this particular year it was really looking like a trip was just not going to happen. We didn't have the cash, things weren't working out the way we thought they needed to, we resigned to just stay home.\n\nThen out of nowhere, in the span of about a week, we ended up booking 2 jobs that we weren't expecting. Suddenly we had a fist full of cash (actually, a bank account balance slightly higher than normal) and since we had been planning on tightening up the belt as it were, this cash was basically bonus. I got to thinking about it for a day or two, then one afternoon I just turned to Sabrina and said \"Hey, so we've got this money now, do you want to go to China?\" \n\nWe both kinda laughed for a minute, then she said \"Yeah, I really do... do you think we can?\" \n\nTwo days later we had flights booked to Beijing, and 3 nights reserved at a hostel in the city, the rest was up to us to figure out as it came along. We look back at this insane, spontaneous decision with fond memories and warm laughter every time we talk about it. It was the start of one of the best trips we have ever been on together, and we don't regret a single thing. Even when one of our jobs cancelled late, and the person who was going to rent our place canned out last minute (double rent, yay!!), and we ended up running out of money about three quarters of the way into our trip (hi uh mom? yeah, so were in Cambodia, and well, you're not gonna believe this...). \n\nI'll be making more posts as a series eventually covering our entire trip through Asia, but for now I hope you enjoy looking through some of our memories from China!\n\n## Around Beijing\n\n###### Sabrina, on our way to Vancouver airport.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer1f0cd4.jpg\n\n###### On the tarmac at Shanghai, about to board our connecting flight to Beijing.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer68f8570.jpg\n\n###### Sabrina was getting a little tired.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer6370e2b.jpg\n\n###### On the way to Beijing!!\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer3e45da.jpg\n\n###### One of the first images I took in Beijing.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer400960.jpg\n\n###### The alley way leading to our hostel, you can see the sign in the back \"Sunrise Hostel\" \nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer37b44ef.jpg\n\n###### Severe jetlag = waking up at 4:00 in the morning to explore Beijing.\nhttps://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/09/13/DallasKolotyloPhotography-AsiaTravelPhotographer38c6101.jpg\n\n###### Later on that morning we were able to taste one of the worst simulated coffee flavored beverages ever to disgrace the face of this earth.

I then discovered a refined bistro called \u201cAssunta\u201d in Minas Gerais and cooked as a Chef de parti. In this place I became sure of what I wanted for my life. Learning an important chef\u2019s culinary art at that time aroused my desire to live abroad; learn English and improve my culinary techniques.\n\n### Following this experience I traveled to Ireland in Europe and began working in an Irish restaurant as a Kitchen Porter and later working as a Chef de Parti.\n\n### Having met my girlfriend, I embarked on the third part of journey to Thailand in 2014 where I gained an Asian cooking experience and improved my International culinary techniques. In Bangkok I had the privilege of undertaking a course in one of the most prestigious international networks of French cuisine; \u201cLe Cordon Bleu\u201d.\n\n### Having completed the Advanced cooking level there I traveled to Italy and learnt more about Mediterranean cooking and then returned to Brasil, where I\u2019m now based.\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://gustavopasquini.files.wordpress.com/2016/01/logo_transparent.png?w=465\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Site ](https://gustavopasquini.com)\n\n> ### [ Chef Recipes Shop ](https://gustavopasquini-shop.com)\n\n> ### [Blog Post ](https://gustavopasquini.wordpress.com/2016/09/13/puff-pastry-of-chocolate-and-strawberr/)\n\n> ### [Recipe Site ](http://gshow.globo.com/receitas-gshow/receita/folhado-de-chocolate-e-morango-4ee3599be1608c68880013cf.html)\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------", -

Luke Parker || Blockchain Adoption || Btm || Deloitte

\n

Deloitte's Toronto office has a new bitcoin automatic teller machine (ATM), also known as a BTM. The company's first machine is located in city\u2019s Financial District at the intersection of Yonge and Adelaide. \u201cEnter the Deloitte entrance off Yonge St. and go up the escalator,\u201d tweeted the firm's blockchain team, Rubix by Deloitte (Rubix).

\n

Deloitte is comprised of the UK private company, Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, and a network of independent member firms. Following a revenue announcement on Wednesday, Deloitte has overtaken PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) as the largest of the 'Big Four' accounting firm by revenue, earning US$36.8 billion last year. PwC has yet to release its 2016 earnings, but generated US$35.4 billion in 2015. The Canadian member firm of Deloitte, Deloitte LLP, has 56 locations and 8,820 employees and headquarters in Toronto. The firm reported annual revenue of $2.088 billion in 2015.

\n

Deloitte founded Rubix in 2014, exclusively to develop enterprise blockchain applications. \u201cRubix bridges the gap between the exponentially innovative nature of blockchain technology and the complexity of existing enterprise system environments,\u201d states the website.

\n

\u201cThe goal is to make bitcoin more accessible so that users can experience blockchain technology first hand,\u201d explained Iliana Oris Valiente, the original founder and strategy leader of the Rubix team. This will \u201cdeepen their understanding and ultimately increase adoption,\u201d she added. The BTM only needs a mobile phone number to be used. 

\n

\n

The bitcoin-dispensing machine was manufactured by Bitaccess, an Ottawa-based bitcoin ATM maker founded in 2013. The company\u2019s base model sells for $7,000 CAD. Rubix has been collaborating with the start-up over the past few months.

\n

\u201cDeloitte has shown themselves to be a leader in financial innovation through their Rubix team,\u201d said Bitaccess co-founder Moe Adham. \u201cPartnering with Deloitte on this project is a natural fit for Bitaccess. It further advances our mission to commercialize blockchain technologies.\u201d

The BTM industry has been growing steadily in recent years. An independent BTM information portal,CoinATMRadar, shows that new BTMs are installed globally at a rate of 1.29 per day. A global total of 775 BTMs are shown on the site at press time, having nearly doubled over the past year.

\n

62 of the machines are manufactured by Bitaccess, located in 11 different countries throughout North America, Europe, and Thailand. The site lists a total of 17 manufacturers and 28 operators of BTM networks. Giving Bitaccess an 8% market share. The company is the fourth largest BTM manufacturer behind Genesis Coin, Lamassu, and General Bytes. 

\n

\n

Deloitte\u2019s BTM adds to the existing list of 12 BTMs in downtown Toronto. The surrounding cities bordering Toronto together offer 31 BTM locations, giving Deloitte\u2019s new machine plenty of competition.

\n

Canada has been the primary proving grounds for BTM adoption, ever since the world\u2019s first BTM was installed in downtown Vancouver, at Waves Coffee shop in October 2013. The price of a bitcoin was US$200 at the time. The very next day, bitcoin began its steepest climb ever, reaching its all-time high of $1,200 within a month.

\n

The Canadian government offers an extra light regulatory environment. There is no regulation for BTM machine owners or manufacturers, since they are not considered money transmitters. However, there are proposed regulations on digital currency businesses.

\n

A July 2014 economic action plan proposed that existing Money Service Businesses, who deal in \u201cvirtual currencies,\u201d should register themselves with FINTRAC, in order to fight money laundering and become compliant with the Terrorist Financing Act.

\n

By increasing access and understanding of bitcoin, Deloitte hopes that people will be \u201cbetter prepared to embrace and respond to the advancement of blockchain,\u201d according to Ian Chan, Partner and Deloitte\u2019s Exponentials and Innovation Leader. 

\n

\n

Many regulators, companies, and academic institutions have said blockchain has the potential to disrupt various industries. In July 2015, Deutsche Bank Research called blockchain technology \u201cone of the first truly disruptive ideas from the fintech sector.\u201d In December 2015, Goldman Sachs' Equity Research published a report claiming that \"The Blockchain Could Disrupt Everything.\" The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania published an article in May, on \u201chow blockchain technology will prove to be a major disruptor to the public and private sectors, starting with the financial services industry.\u201d

\n

A Deloitte report published in March, \u201dBeyond bitcoin: Blockchain is coming to disrupt your industry,\u201d explores blockchains' disruptive potential by sector. The firm examines six sectors including financial services, technology, media, communications, the public sector, energy and resources.

\n

\u201cTo avoid disruptive surprises or missed opportunities, strategists, planners, and decision makers across industries and business functions should pay heed now and begin to investigate applications of the technology,\u201d the report concludes.

Each year , the sea level rise of 1-3 mm . If not immediately anticipated , rising sea levels is certainly dangerous for the survival of human beings living on the earth surface . Even more dangerous , several major cities in the world was threatened with sinking due to rising sea levels , the foundation is fragile, as well as ground water extraction . The following eight major cities in the world are threatened with drowning.\n\nShanghai,china\n
\n\n
\nShanghai was once just a place surrounded by swamp . The need for a place to stay and a population that swells create more and more skyscrapers in the area. Not surprisingly , each year the ground in Shanghai dropped half an inch . Based on data from PBS , the surface of the ground in Shanghai fell by around 2.4 meters within the period 1921 to 1965. Experts estimate that the land in Shanghai no longer able to withstand the heavy loads of building on it . Predicted a time Shanghai will sink if the Yangze River overflowed\n\n\n\nSaigon,Vietnam\n
\n\n
\n\nOne of the most populous cities in Southeast Asia is also in danger of drowning. The reduced surface soil make this area prone to flooding . Each year, the floodwaters rose as high as 2cm.\n\n\nBangkok,Thailand\n
\n\n
\nHead of the National Disaster Warning Centre of Thailand , Smith Dharmasaroja , predicted in 2100 Bangkok will be the second Atlantis . The city will sink due to several factors , such as : climate change due to greenhouse effect , rising sea levels , coastal erosion , and landslides . Plus it lies low causing Bangkok every year has flooded.\n\nMumbai,india\n\n\n
\n\n
\nNot much different from Bangkok , a group of Greenpeace activists in 2100 memperkitakan Mumbai city will be submerged by seawater . Rising sea levels of up to 5 meters led to the city's community in the town threatened its sustainability.\nMexico,City\n\n
\n\n
\n\nThis one city each year sunk 20cm in case of flooding . It lies in the valley plus the poor drainage system make Mexico City in danger of drowning. Since 1975 , the city's drainage capacity is down 30 percent . But now the government is pushing for the manufacture of drainage tunnel giant who claimed can hold enough water.\n\n\nNew York\n\n
\n\n
\n\nRising sea levels threaten the city turned out to take part in these United States. Position at the mouth of the Hudson River that connects directly to the Atlantic Ocean helped trigger. Science Daily predict , the city sea water more than doubled compared to other oceans . Not only that , coastal erosion , decreased soil and destruction of the environment can also trigger the overflow of water in the city known as the center of the business world.\n\n\nVenesia,italy\n\n
\n\n
\n\nThe end of 2012 , the city was flooded badly . This phenomenon is present due to a combination of heavy rain and wind from the south . At least 70 percent of the land in the canal city is flooded with a depth of up to 1.5 meters above normal . Flooding was apparently one of the indications that the region of Venice continues to sink . Christian Science Monitor even noted , the city dropped its surface as long as 30 cm over the last 100 years. The rising water level in the Mediterranean Sea canal city likely add it to sink.\n\n\nJakarta,indonesia\n\n\n
\n\n
\n\n\nIn addition to the geographical location of which is under sea level , the need for a high water is considered to be one of the causes of the sinking of the mainland Jakarta . Population continues to increase the main reason for the need for groundwater . In a period of 20 years, the estimated number of residents in the capital increase of up to 40 million people.\n\n\nHydrology expert from the Netherlands , Janjaap Brinkman explained that if the soil water suction process continuously carried out , at the end of the 21st century , Jakarta will sink five to six meters deep . A matter of time Jakarta will sink beneath the sea as the city of Atlantis\n\nThese towns are threatened sinking due to rising sea levels and global warming . If we do not change the way we treat the earth , these cities will be completely submerged without we could do anything. Let's start caring for the environment.!!!\n\n\n\n\nComments and Responses You\nVery I would expect to progress I\nAnd I hope you enjoyed reading this post\n\n\nDon't forget to vote and follow me,\nThanks...\n\n\nBest Regars\n\nhttps://s9.postimg.org/7que1vu0v/20150608150705.jpg\n\nSazkia@Siniceku", - "category": "life", - "children": 0, - "created": "2016-09-13T03:32:03", - "curator_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "depth": 0, - "is_paidout": false, - "json_metadata": { - "image": [ - "https://s18.postimg.org/d9i0vjmzd/405046_queensland_039_s_flood_disaster.jpg", - "https://s4.postimg.org/s97fe437x/Saigon_Flooding.jpg", - "https://s15.postimg.org/dq72f2v8b/temples_flooded_in_thailand_data.jpg", - "https://s15.postimg.org/fgl6hs59n/28sl3.jpg", - "https://s11.postimg.org/ml22odc4z/f8fcd814_1646_4aaa_ad1e_b4bc111c707c_650x366.jpg", - "https://s12.postimg.org/6g8rm99zx/Yellow_cabs_line_a_flood_010.jpg", - "https://s16.postimg.org/rzrojow7p/628x471.jpg", - "https://s15.postimg.org/3m6tky4kr/335370_jakarta_floods.jpg", - "https://s9.postimg.org/7que1vu0v/20150608150705.jpg" - ], - "tags": [ - "life", - "steemit", - "" - ] - }, - "max_accepted_payout": "1000000.000 HBD", - "net_rshares": 18699179713, - "payout": 0.004, - "payout_at": "2016-09-20T03:32:03", - "pending_payout_value": "0.004 HBD", - "percent_hbd": 10000, - "permlink": "8-big-cities-in-the-world-threatened-drowning", - "post_id": 1227664, - "reblogs": 0, - "replies": [], - "stats": { - "flag_weight": 0.0, - "gray": false, - "hide": false, - "total_votes": 4 - }, - "title": "8 Big Cities in the World Threatened Drowning", - "updated": "2016-09-13T04:09:21", - "url": "/life/@siniceku/8-big-cities-in-the-world-threatened-drowning" - }, - { - "active_votes": [ + "rshares": 101872192, + "voter": "cynetyc" + }, + { + "rshares": 4498938804, + "voter": "konti" + }, { - "rshares": 14203668754, - "voter": "valtr" + "rshares": 68550569, + "voter": "numberone" }, { - "rshares": 602561521, - "voter": "keyser" + "rshares": 52053227, + "voter": "jlufer" }, { - "rshares": 174462677, - "voter": "uwe69" + "rshares": 5440664433, + "voter": "nadin3" }, { - "rshares": 366382339, - "voter": "zrc" + "rshares": 137617585, + "voter": "moneymaker" }, { - "rshares": 2042714039, - "voter": "daveks" + "rshares": 573911846, + "voter": "edgarsart" }, { - "rshares": 18204837580, - "voter": "steemokto" + "rshares": 3054162843, + "voter": "anton333" }, { - "rshares": 51874844, - "voter": "mari5555na" + "rshares": 286592441, + "voter": "anomaly" + }, + { + "rshares": 2462891749, + "voter": "ekaterinka" + }, + { + "rshares": 334319550, + "voter": "borishaifa" }, { - "rshares": 152696750, - "voter": "dollshaped" + "rshares": 146492230, + "voter": "modernbukowski" } ], - "author": "dollshaped", + "author": "anton333", "author_payout_value": "0.000 HBD", - "author_reputation": 25.0, + "author_reputation": 54.81, "beneficiaries": [], "blacklists": [], - "body": "\n

Earlier this year, my friends and I took a trip to Chiang Mai, Thailand where we had the opportunity of visiting the Elephant Nature Park. Located in the mountains about an hour's drive north of the city, the Elephant Nature Park is home to over fifty elephants rescued from the tourism and logging industries. Their grounds are also home to hundreds of dogs and cats who were left behind by their families during the 2011 floods in southern Thailand. 

\n

It was a really beautiful place and I wanted to share some of the photos I took with everyone!

1. Chiang Mai, Thailand

\ncq5dam.web.1280.1280


\n

In addition to the beautiful landscapes that involve freelancers security sojourn and comfortable temperate climate, in this town there is a good co-working center, the cost of a monthly subscription which - $ 109. Also for freelancers need a good Internet, the average speed is in Chiang Mai - 20 Mbit / s, which is, in principle, tolerant. As a bonus - a lot of cafes with free Wi-Fi.

\n

2. Bangkok, Thailand

\n

Bangkok can be described roughly as well as Chiang Mai. Comfort, speed internet infrastructure and about the same. There is little difference in climate (south of Bangkok, so it is warmer) and the considerable difference in housing prices, which is not strange since Bangkok - Thailand's capital. So, a month renting an apartment you need to pay almost twice as much than in Chiang Mai.

\n

3. London, UK

\nLondon-wallpaper-1366x768


\n

There is a stereotype that London is a perpetual fog. In fact, there is quite sunny and pleasant climate. Only in winter it can be chilly in the living room, if they are not heated. One of the main amenities of the city - transport. In addition to taxi and Metro, the world-famous dabldekery that are equipped with seats for disabled people, baby carriages, almost always free.

Technology could be used to differentiate fish caught sustainably to those caught illegally, or linked to human rights abuses

\n

A new digital technology has been trialled to track fish from trawler to the supermarket in a breakthrough that could help stop human rights abuses and illegal fishing.The technology \u2013 called blockchain and first used to power the currency Bitcoin \u2013 is expected to revolutionise the finance, property and food sectors replacing traditional contracts, paperwork and identification methods.Blockchain is a digital ledger or record of information that is accessible to everyone. In this case it details the origins of fish and allows anyone to see where the fish was caught, processed and sold on. It does not stop illegal fishing on its own but it opens up the supply chain for anyone to scrutinise.With the seafood industry notorious for human rights abuses and illegal fishing, campaigners hope the technology, piloted by a UK-based company Provenance, could help retailers, manufacturers and restaurants prove the origins of their fish.\u201cBuilding in mechanisms to deliver transparency from net to plate is central to eradicating illegal, unsustainable fishing and the human rights abuses that have plagued parts of the seafood production sector,\u201d said Steve Trent, executive director at the Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF).

\n

At present the buying and selling of seafood is tracked by paper records and tags on the fish. The new blockchain approach sees local fishermen send SMS messages to register their catch on the blockchain. This identification is then transferred to a supplier along with the catch, with any subsequent move, for example processing or tinning, also recorded.
\nThe information on the origin and supply chain journey of the fish can then be accessed and verified by end buyers and consumers in shops or restaurants using their smartphones, replacing the current printed communication and labels. 

\n

The technology has already sparked interest from food companies, with the Co-op Food group currently conducting its own trial with Provenance on fresh food products - expected to conclude later this year.Provenance founder Jessi Baker said that the technology currently adds a \u201cfew pence\u201d to the price of the final product so is likely to be used first on premium fish products, or even wine or olive oil. The cost will need to come down to \u201cpoints of a pence\u201d to be viable for canned and processed fish produce, she said. 

\n

\u201cWe are desperately in need of a solution,\u201d said Baker. \u201cWe want to help support fish that is caught sustainably and verify these claims down the chain to help drive the market for slavery-free fish. This pilot shows that complex, global supply chains can be made transparent by using blockchain technology.\u201dThe fish trial has been welcomed by Thai Union, the world\u2019s biggest tuna exporter, that has faced its own sustainability criticisms. Tesco stopped stocking its John West brand in July this year, citing the need for the fish company to ensure it was using sustainable sources of tuna.\u201cTraceability \u2013 which allows us to prove that our fish is caught legally and sustainably and that safe labour conditions are met throughout the supply chain - is vital if we are to interest consumers in the source of their tuna,\u201d said Dr Darian McBain, director of sustainability at Thai Union. 

\n

\u201cThe next challenges are building scalability so that traceability systems can operate across borders and certifying authorities, and educating consumers that it is worth paying more for sustainably-caught traceable fish where workers are paid a fair and decent wage,\u201d she said.Trent from EJF, cautioned that on its own the technology would not end abuses in the seafood sector. \u201cIt is also essential to understand and support the other actions and mechanisms that are needed to combat these abuses, including the role of effective enforcement actions and the application of strong, fair and transparent action in the courts to impose robust penalties,\u201d he said.

Before any procedure, dessalgue their dried meat, which usually comes to us consumers with too much salt to your saves. Cut the meat into large cubes of edge 5cm +/- each. Dip these cubes of dried meat in a container with water to the surface of the meat, covering the cubes. Keep this container in the refrigerator and replace your water every 2 hours, 3 to 4 times depending on how their meat is salty.\n\n### 2. To find out if your meat is too much or too little salt, just testing the water at the last and penultimate exchanges; if it is too salty, require more exchanges of cold water, if the water is only brackish, will be ready the meat to be manipulated.\n\n### 3. In a pressure cooker and over medium heat, saute onion and garlic in olive oil, leaving them brown. Add to this mixture the meat without water dessalgue, in order to seal (browning meat outside), while stirring occasionally.\n\n### 4. Add the wine, water and cover the pressure cooker, sealing it well. Lower the heat to the lowest setting and cook in pressure for about 30 minutes.\n\n### 5. Turn off the heat, allow the pressure out completely. Open the pot and see if the meat is well tender, otherwise return it to the fire, with the covered pot for a few minutes (10minutes, depending on how the meat in question is still hard).\n\n### 6. Once cooked meat and tender, remove all the liquid that came off the meat into another container and set aside.\n\n### 7. Close the pressure cooker with the meat cooked inside, and shake several times and vigorously. When you open the pressure cooker meat should be shredded completely. If not, close the pot again and repeat the procedure until the desired result.\n\n### 8. Transfer the meat with its broth to a small saucepan and deep, add pelati tomatoes, mix well, correct the salt if necessary, and leave on medium heat until the broth begins to reduce and refine. About 20 minutes. The more reduce broth, the flavor will be determined.\n\n\n\n## Polenta\n\n### Boil water in a deep pan and add low-temperature salt and fine corn flour gradually, stirring until it is full-bodied and creamy. Preferably, follow the \"proportion\" of water and cornmeal, and the \"method of preparation\" of the flour manufacturer to polenta to buy, after all there are differences in the composition of each of these industrialized corn mixtures! Porcione container or format you want to serve.\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png\n\n# About Me\n\n### In 2012 I began my cooking journey in Brasil and studied at \u201cSenac, Juiz de Fora\u201d, in Minas Gerais, developing my basic culinary techniques.\n\n### Later I worked in a local restaurant, and rose to a role in management, helping to increase the clientele base.

Before any procedure, dessalgue their dried meat, which usually comes to us consumers with too much salt to your saves. Cut the meat into large cubes of edge 5cm +/- each. Dip these cubes of dried meat in a container with water to the surface of the meat, covering the cubes. Keep this container in the refrigerator and replace your water every 2 hours, 3 to 4 times depending on how their meat is salty.\n\n### 2. To find out if your meat is too much or too little salt, just testing the water at the last and penultimate exchanges; if it is too salty, require more exchanges of cold water, if the water is only brackish, will be ready the meat to be manipulated.\n\n### 3. In a pressure cooker and over medium heat, saute onion and garlic in olive oil, leaving them brown. Add to this mixture the meat without water dessalgue, in order to seal (browning meat outside), while stirring occasionally.\n\n### 4. Add the wine, water and cover the pressure cooker, sealing it well. Lower the heat to the lowest setting and cook in pressure for about 30 minutes.\n\n### 5. Turn off the heat, allow the pressure out completely. Open the pot and see if the meat is well tender, otherwise return it to the fire, with the covered pot for a few minutes (10minutes, depending on how the meat in question is still hard).\n\n### 6. Once cooked meat and tender, remove all the liquid that came off the meat into another container and set aside.\n\n### 7. Close the pressure cooker with the meat cooked inside, and shake several times and vigorously. When you open the pressure cooker meat should be shredded completely. If not, close the pot again and repeat the procedure until the desired result.\n\n### 8. Transfer the meat with its broth to a small saucepan and deep, add pelati tomatoes, mix well, correct the salt if necessary, and leave on medium heat until the broth begins to reduce and refine. About 20 minutes. The more reduce broth, the flavor will be determined.\n\n\n\n## Polenta\n\n### Boil water in a deep pan and add low-temperature salt and fine corn flour gradually, stirring until it is full-bodied and creamy. Preferably, follow the \"proportion\" of water and cornmeal, and the \"method of preparation\" of the flour manufacturer to polenta to buy, after all there are differences in the composition of each of these industrialized corn mixtures! Porcione container or format you want to serve.\n\n-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n\nhttps://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://gustavopasquini.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/2-1.png\n\n# About Me\n\n### In 2012 I began my cooking journey in Brasil and studied at \u201cSenac, Juiz de Fora\u201d, in Minas Gerais, developing my basic culinary techniques.\n\n### Later I worked in a local restaurant, and rose to a role in management, helping to increase the clientele base.
