		<description><![CDATA[An unseasonably warm December left only light dusting of snow, which made the coyote, rabbit and dog tracks very easy to identify, It also meant chopping and hauling a lot less firewood. My Occupy Farm experience must have left me with waves of “up sparkle” energy. As I sat in Port Authority Bus Terminal on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m on my way to a farm that has joined the Occupy movement. I know nothing about it except that as a long-term sustainable option, farms make sense to me. You can only sleep on concrete and marble in a city &#8220;park&#8221; for so long. I have no idea what will happen in the next [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The last time I showed up at the OWS People&#8217;s Library, I learned that the yellow-vested security guards refused to allow any library books to be displayed at Zuccotti Park  during the day. Yes, it gets worser and worser. To add insult to injury,  a published author who I consider a friend, accused me of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanksgiving Day was special this year, because of the resilience of the Occupy movement around the world. Occupy Wall Street was the site of an amazing shared feast, music, voice relay messages and library presence at Zuccotti Park. It is also the source for the sense of hope shared by my fellow 99-percenters. OWS is [...]]]></description>

But the most impressive use of this voice relay technique was when we found a lost 7-year-old literally within minutes  -  even before the [...]]]></description>

I cannot imagine 150 million of anything, let alone years. I would later learn that their red color [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been thinking about Nature&#8217;s power, reflecting on the warnings issued over the course of my life that our conspicuous consumption is unsustainable. There are certain laws that humans cannot violate or ignore, like the Law [...]]]></description>
