The Primitive Technology movement
Mr Tfue is not the only one using Primitive Tools. A movement called ‘Primitive Technology’ renouncing modern methods has been gaining traction online.
It entails construction using only materials found in the wild and is being implemented by a number of people making remarkable structures around the world.
In Mr Tfue’s case, only the most simplest of tools are used: a digging stick.
The stick is used to dig out a huge hole and to carve steps and intricate patterns in the walls. Included in the design of the pool is an underground passage way, with a doorway at each end.
Everything he needs is in nature
Mr Tfue also taps into the surroundings for resources. To waterproof the pool, he crushes up what looks like an ant nest and grinds the material into a cement-like surface.
Plants and clay provide colorants. Accessories, including a deck chair, are fashioned with bamboo. A clay pot is used to fetch water from a nearby source. And Mr Tfue also shows himself to be a useful fisherman as he catches and cooks his own meals.
Of course at the end of it all, he gets to take a refreshing dip into his swimming pool, a little reward for some serious hard work!

Environmentalists in the United States have been noticing a similar trend, as the use of masks and gloves continues to be more common in the country. Maria Algarra, the founder of the Miami-based environmentalist group “Clean This Beach Up,” has started a hashtag campaign called #TheGloveChallenge, where she has encouraged people to take photos of discarded gloves and masks to illustrate how much of a widespread problem this littering is.
Algarra says that she has received nearly 2,000 photos of discarded gloves and masks from all over the world. In some cases, people have even pitched in and helped to clear up the discarded items, but Algarra has advised her supporters to only pick up the items if they have personal protective equipment.
“With the glove challenge, it’s about education. That’s the key for us to do better as a community and as humans. We can’t expect people to change their ways if they don’t know what they’re doing wrong. Plastic breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces until micro-plastic is everywhere. It’s toxic and it’s in what we’re eating and drinking. There’s no way to clean up micro-plastics. Once trash makes it into the ocean and breaks into smaller pieces, it’s almost impossible to take it back,” Algarra said.

He decided to focus on the art of it more than the function of blowing glass.
When he lost his friend, he was devastated. He just got a spoonful of ash as a reminder. So, he was struck with the idea to make a marble out of his friend’s ash. The idea flourished and soon, people were asking to make a memorial glass for their departed ones. The idea just got bigger from then on.
Generally, ash puts stress on the glass and so, it is not easy to work with. How he does it is Cameron’s secret? He hopes to reveal it someday in a class. However, that’s not the only painstaking process that he undertakes. Cameron creates connections with his clients and asks them about the departed one – he involves himself with the grieving process to get a clear picture. It’s difficult for him too and maybe that’s why he is able to create a perfect artifact – a connection remade with the lost.
In the end, all he wants is to make people smile in their sadness and he succeeds. And that’s what matters.

Some time ago, he could never have imagined that he would be able to regain the sense of touch using a prosthesis but a team of biomedical engineers from Utah University has made that possible.
Known as the “LUKE Arm”, the device takes inspiration from the robotic arm worn by Luke Skywalker in “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back” when he loses his arm in a fight against Darth Vader.
Using only his thoughts to direct the fingers in his new bionic arm, Wagamott can pick up and drop objects. The greatest thing of all is that it allows him to feel again.

The wisdom of master Yoda is spread all over the storyline of the movie series.
The unassuming master always advises us to recognize the power of knowledge. It gives us the strength to rise in life:
“Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter.”
“In a dark place we find ourselves, and a little more knowledge lights our way.”
“Mind what you have learned. Save you it can.”
In The Empire Strikes Back, Yoda is heard saying:
“Judge me by my size, do you?”
If we have knowledge, age or size doesn’t matter, when it’s about the Force of life and nature.
We can learn from everyone we come across. Despite their age or size, we should always consider the opinions of others. A student can leave a lesson for the teacher. So, the Jedi says:
“Truly wonderful the mind of a child is.”
He reminds us,
“Always two there are, no more, no less. A master and an apprentice.”
“Always pass on what you have learned.”
The sensei of the war series actually doesn’t support wars. He has often come up with wise words like:
“Great warrior. Wars not make one great”
“In this war, a danger there is, of losing who we are.”
“Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will.”
He rather tells us
“A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.”

Often, Yoda encourages virtues of patience, of learning from our failures, and winning over our fears:
“The greatest teacher, failure is.”
“Fear is the path to the dark side…fear leads to anger…anger leads to hate…hate leads to suffering”
Yoda tells Luke:
“Adventure. Excitement. A Jedi craves not these things.”
An enlightened one understands the significance and meaning of the journey he wants to make. And at the end,
“Death is a natural part of life. Rejoice for those around you who transform into the Force. Mourn them do not. Miss them do not. Attachment leads to jealously. The shadow of greed, that is.”
Even if you are not a Star Wars fan, these words of Yoda can help improve your life.

One issue which European nations like Denmark and Poland may face is that they may have to reference the European Unions’ corporate tax avoidance blacklist, which does not include all of the worst-offending tax haven nations.
Could the current crisis bring about tax reforms?
Paul Monaghan, chief executive of Fair Tax Mark, is hopeful that the current situation could mark a watershed moment in tax avoidance.
“To the man and woman in the street this isn’t that radical, what we’re asking for. Polling by Fair Tax Mark shows it is popular,” he said.
“The public mood, the narrative right now about everyone pitching in and expecting fairness, means it is very conducive for some breakthroughs on tax. We are potentially standing on the precipice of some quite big gains.”

How To Grow Your Own Cucamelon
If you are buying a cucamelon, then ensure that they are organic and don’t contain harmful pesticides in it. But if you already have one at home and want to cultivate them yourself, then you have that option too. Take out the seeds and keep them in a water jar for an entire week. Then take them out, rinse them with water and store in an envelope.
A cucamelon needs at least 65-70 days to develop. It also needs a warm humid environment and the temperature of the soil should be around 75F and 85F.
Start planting it around April or May, and see to it that there is a space of at least 12 square inches between the pots. Keep them under sunlight for at least 6 hours.
The plant grows up to 10 feet and is a climber, so make sure that you have a proper setup in a place like a trellis to make the tree stay upright.
Ensure that the soil is rich in nutrients and filled with manure or compost, thereby allowing it to drain pretty easily. Add a few lava rocks that would help in draining it. After you have planted it for two months, add three inches of compost every month.
Water the cucamelons properly. You don’t have to do it every day. Just a few inches every week is enough.
The good thing about Cucamelons is they are resistant to disease or pests and can reseed themselves.
If you wrap the cucamelons as they are growing, then you can avoid any damage by twisting of their tendrils.
July marks the harvesting season. When they acquire the size of a normal grape, pick them up from the tree. Harvesting season lasts long enough till the middle of November.
As the season enters its closing period, prune the cucamelon, and eat it raw or with whatever condiments you want.
Or, you could try these out:
Cucamelon Bruschetta
Ingredients
Cucamelon: 1 pint, cleanly cut in half.
Cipollini onions: 2, diced, sliced and peeled.

2 tbsp of apple cider vinegar
Salt and pepper

Stephen Wiltshire was written off as autistic by doctors when he was just three years old. But at the age of 46, he is stirring up a storm in the art sphere. He just spends five days sketching a city skyline in vivid detail just after one ride on the helicopter.
The Early Life of Stephen Wiltshire
Young Wiltshire did not speak even at the age of three. His parents immigrated to the United Kingdom from the West Indies. They believed the development of his speech had just been delayed. But in 1977, when he was 3 years old, he was diagnosed with autism. To make matters even harder for him, his father passed away in a motorbike accident that year.

He was admitted to the Queensmill School situated in London. It was an institute for children with autism. This is where he began his remarkable journey proving everyone wrong, at just 5 years of age.
Wiltshire displayed an extremely keen curiosity in drawing. He began by drawing cars and animals. It was when he was educated about earthquakes that he drew imaginary drawings of cities decimated by earthquakes. Prior to just that, he drew famous buildings in London. Soon enough, he began producing complex cityscape sketches with a lot more detail.
It is also at this school where his teachers concealed his supplies that he used to draw with to compel him to speak. His first utterance was apparently “paper”. His full range of speech developed by the time he was 9 years old.
A Career Out of a Passion
Wilshire was first commissioned at age 8 by the then British PM, Margaret Thatcher. He was to sketch the Salisbury Cathedral for Thatcher. When he was 10 years old, he created a collection called “The London Alphabet” featuring one London landmark for each successive letter in the alphabet.
Wiltshire was also featured in a British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) documentary, Q.E.D when he was 11 years of age. He was taken to St. Pancras station situated in the central part of London. He had to draw the ornate station details from memory in the latter part of the day.

During this time, he published 3 more books of art. His book from 1991, Floating Cities, was topped the bestseller list of Sunday Times.
Successes of Stephen Wiltshire In Present Day
Wiltshire primarily sketches cityscapes now. His artwork is permanently displayed at a gallery situated in London. In addition to that, he also conducts shows all across the planet.
Usually, he takes a ride on a helicopter to view the next subject he would draw. He likes to sketch in front of a live audience at times or does it alone. He generally spends 5 to 10 days sketching things onto a massive canvas.
Wiltshire is the 2006 recipient of an award called MBE, which stands for Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire. This is accredited to this service to the world of art.

Algae are known for their natural cleaning properties. Making use of this, Shneel created ceramic tiles having leaf-like capillaries. She used microalgae for the project. When water is passed through these tiles, the pollutants contained in the water are absorbed by the microalgae thus leaving the water clean. This process may have to be repeated several times depending on how polluted the water is.

The story of how Indus came into being is an interesting one. Malik in 2016 came across some small-scale jewelers and textile dyers while she was traveling in India. She noticed the workers releasing high amounts of toxic wastes like arsenic, cadmium, and lead in water bodies nearby. This was harmful both for water and soil, thus affecting aquatic and human life as well.
Malik visited many textile dyers in Panipat and bangle-makers in Kolkata, India with NGOs like Pure Earth and CEE, who keep a track of pollution. According to her, these visits made her better understand the specific challenges and constraints the artisans faced in treating their wastewater.

She started developing this system because she found that the craftsmen lack enough ground space for keeping high-tech water treatment equipment.
