It’s simple right, we plant a seed, nature grows the seed, we eat the seed.
How farming works (simplified version):
That’s a fine plan unless we want to grow food more densely than nature typically allows, or in a season when nature isn’t so friendly. Or if we want to grow crops that can’t be naturally grown in our specific location because it’s too hot, too cold, not enough rain, too much rain etc.
We can use technology to create ideal environments for growing crops. We can provide just the right amount and color of light and the perfect amount of water and nutrients. We can stack hydroponic platforms vertically in order to exponentially increase the amount of food we can grow in a square foot. We can use technology to create environments that allow us to produce food year-round.

Body Shop is planning to appoint its first board-level marketing director as part of a major shake-up intended to give the company a more coherent marketing strategy and make it less reliant on the public relations skills of founder Anita Roddick.
The appointment is seen as long overdue for a company the size of the Body Shop, whose communications are regarded by many as confused and unco- ordinated, with nobody appearing to be in overall charge. Yesterday, the company was unable to provide anyone to answer questions of the forthcoming appointment.
In the past, Body Shop has relied on a communications team, a press office and head of strategic marketing, Jilly Forster. Ms Forster will now move to a new position as head of corporate style with a new marketing director brought in from outside. Body Shop chairman Gordon Roddick is believed to be standing in as marketing director until a full-time appointment is made.
The main board appointment is seen as highly significant for Body Shop. The chain has problems in the United States, where its brand name is less well known and the market is fiercely competitive.
Presentation of Body Shop in America is seen as a key part of the new director's role. Julie Ramshaw, stores analyst at Morgan Stanley, said: "This is about more than putting together a nice advertising campaign. It will be a strategic, tactical role that looks at fundamental issues such as pricing, product and positioning."
Body Shop has gradually been moving more towards conventional approaches to getting its messages approach The company appointed Chiat Day as its advertising agency last year, after eschewing advertising in the past. It recently announced it was to double its marking spend to pounds 3.5m and plans to launch a radio station later this year on the Astra satellite. Ms Roddick said that the company needed to "shout a bit louder" about what it was doing.
Analysts also see the move into advertising as a means of controlling its messages more than it could by relying on free editorial coverage in newspapers and magazines.
Shares in Body Shop have performed poorly over the last year, slumping from 263p in May last year to 109p last month. Yesterday, the shares finished 4p up at 136p.
Shares in the company lost 13 per cent of their value last month when Body Shop announced disappointing results and a warning of little or no profits growth next year. Profits for the year to February rose 13 per cent to pounds 33.5m but the contribution from the US stores fell from pounds 6.2m to pounds 4.9m. Like-for-like sales fell by 3 per cent over the year and by 8 per cent in the three months following the year end.
Body Shop expanded rapidly in the US but some existing stores were allowed to become tatty and too few products were launched. Customer service was another problems area.
Since then, Body Shop has appointed a new director to oversee the US operations. Terry Hartin, who sold his cosmetics business to Body Shop in 1991, moved out to the group's North Carolina offices in May.
Analysts are forecasting profits of around pounds 38m for next year. Some in the City now rate the shares as a buy as any good news emerging from the company is likely to have a significant impact on the price.Reuse content

I loved this biography of Robert Moses, a man I had never heard of before. He is a fascinating character. He started off an idealistic young man that wanted to make the world a better place, and became the most powerful man in New York. At one time, he held 12 different jobs in the city and state government. The ending of the story is pretty sad (how could it not be?).
At 1245+ pages, this is almost too heavy to hold to read; however, fascinating look at a man who had so much influence, both good and bad, on New York City. Robert Moses was the son of a privileged and strongly opinionated mother. He received the best education possible and went to work in various offices always intending to do what was right and with a vision of how the world should be. Eventually he was appointed the Commissioner of Parks for New York City and his power grew to the point that he was almost uncontrollable. He worked (or manipulated mayors, governors, Congresspeople.
The book reads almost like a novel, but with so much detail the reader can almost read every other page and get the gist of the story. This is probably the most intently researched book I've ever encountered. The writing style is so readable yet with so much detail.
So many interesting characters: LaGuardia, Al Smith, Nelson Rockefeller. I admit I did not read every page, but am so impressed. What a life, and what an example of what power does to the individual who can then in turn affect the lives of so many other people.
An epic and important--but undeniably hard to read--classic in urban planning. Moses is one of the most infamous people in 20th century planning and the history of New York, and much of that credit is due to Caro's classic. In a sprawling, 1,161-page (!) narrative, the author takes us through Moses' life from an upper-crust childhood and through the frustrating times of trying to establish a career, before we get into the jobs that actually cemented his legacy over a decades-long grasp of power building parks, beaches, highways (so many highways!), tunnels, and his beloved bridges. Once he got to that point, Moses was openly corrupt, physically and verbally violent toward subordinates, and an avowed racist.
If that wasn't enough, his life and pet projects were heavily subsidized throughout early adulthood by his wealthy mother, never seeming to appreciate this advantage or even understand how everyday New Yorkers, the users of his public works, lived without them. As a result, playgrounds weren't located in poor and working-class neighborhoods, highways were chronically congested from their opening day, mass transit was left without investment for decades, and worst of all, literally thousands of New Yorkers had their homes taken and bulldozed, all because Moses didn't consider the individual to matter in the face of building great works. Those factors all contribute to the full story of who Robert Moses was, and it's important they are in the story, but it does make this hard to read in some points. Nevertheless I am glad this hefty biography exists, for the benefit of the history of planning and what not to do as a practitioner.
When I first open The Power Broker to begin reading it and slowly turn past the maps, copyright, title page, and table of contents to the introduction, my heart beats a little faster. I love this. The length of this book, 1246 pages, doesn’t intimidate me. I love this. I’ve wanted to read this for years, years of hearing this is among the greatest biographies ever. I love this.
Robert Caro paints the portrait of Robert Moses, builder of New York City, first broadly, then in fine detail. The portrait is not idealized: though one could read the broad portrait and find a genius god-man who formed New York City into the modern marvel we know, that is not a complete picture. Caro fills in the moral corruption in the soul of Moses. His anger is shown, his manipulation is revealed, his lies are detailed. Perhaps he believed the ends justified the means — how could he not? — but most people will come away from this believing the means do not justify this end.
The strength of The Power Broker is Robert Caro’s clear, direct writing. This is a complex subject without complex language. A fifth grader could understand this. This doesn’t reduce Caro at all, for simplicity is necessary. Beyond the simplicity, however, Caro uses colorful language to great effect. His characters are not just “politicians” but “red-faced, burly, cigar-smoking” politicians. The anger becomes visceral, the rooms smoke-filled, and the air acrid from both.
Carl’s organization of the book is masterful. In the first 250 pages, we learn about Moses’s efforts to develop parks in Long Island, then in the chapter on Moses’s relationship with FDR, the reader learns Moses was fighting the future president on budget accommodation at that same time. Rather than told chronologically, Moses’s life is told by subject: to great effect.
Though end it must. Robert Moses was not immortal, though he may have thought he was. This man, with amazing ideas and a career unparalleled in modern history (Caro has to look back to Ancient Rome to find a comparable builder, and even then falls short), idealized, then compromised, then lied, cheated, and abused his way into power to shape his city in the image he desired. Long Island is a suburb of New York due to his decisions. Both public transportation and car traffic in New York City are many times worse due to his decisions. He neglected advice or other experience because of his desires to bend others to his will. Eventually, his hubris and his arrogance was his downfall. Caro parallels this with the downfall of the city, but New York has seemed to recover over the last few decades since the book was written. It will, however, never be the same because of the man that carved his image into it. Perhaps Moses’s reputation never will be either.
Lined I liked —
- One must wait until the evening to see how splendid the day has been. - Sophocles
- “All decisions should be unanimous. If not, I will make the decision.”
- Water alone slacked the tautness of existence. Water seemed to attract him.
From time to time Mr. Caro feels that he ought to explain why Moses is what he is and his narrative is occasionally marred by vulgar Freudianisms in the Leon Edel manner. This is a pity because the chief interest of biography is not why men do what they do, which can never be known unless one turns novelist the way Freud did when he wrote Leonardo, but what they do. One does not want a theory explaining Moses's celebrated vindictiveness when examples of that vindictiveness are a matter of interesting record. For instance, after a run-in with Mayor Jimmy Walker, Moses tore down the Casino in Central Park because Walker had patronized it; yet the building itself was a charming relic of the previous century and the people's property. Prematurely, he razed a yacht club because the members "were rude to me." Shades of Richard Nixon! Petty revenge was certainly behind his desire to remove the Battery's most famous landmark-the Aquarium in the old fort known as Castle Garden...
Finally, in looking back over all that Robert Moses has done to the world we live in and, more important, the way that he did it by early mastering the twin arts of publicity and of corruption, one sees in the design of his career a perfect blueprint for that inevitable figure, perhaps even now standing in the wings of the Republic, rehearsing to himself such phrases as "law and order," "renewal and reform," "sacrifice and triumph," the first popularly elected dictator of the United States.

Everywhere acknowledged as a modern American classic, winner of the Pulitzer Prize, and chosen by the Modern Library as one of the hundred greatest books of the twentieth century, The Power Broker is a huge and galvanizing biography revealing not only the saga of one man's incredible accumulation of power, but the story of the shaping (and mis-shaping) of New York in the twentieth century. Robert Caro's monumental book makes public what few outsiders knew: that Robert Moses was the single most powerful man of his time in the City and in the State of New York. And in telling the Moses story, Caro both opens up to an unprecedented degree the way in which politics really happens--the way things really get done in America's City Halls and Statehouses--and brings to light a bonanza of vital information about such national figures as Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt (and the genesis of their blood feud), about Fiorello La Guardia, John V. Lindsay and Nelson Rockefeller. But The Power Broker is first and foremost a brilliant multidimensional portrait of a man--an extraordinary man who, denied power within the normal framework of the democratic process, stepped outside that framework to grasp power sufficient to shape a great city and to hold sway over the very texture of millions of lives. We see how Moses began: the handsome, intellectual young heir to the world of Our Crowd, an idealist. How, rebuffed by the entrenched political establishment, he fought for the power to accomplish his ideals. How he first created a miraculous flowering of parks and parkways, playlands and beaches--and then ultimately brought down on the city the smog-choked aridity of our urban landscape, the endless miles of (never sufficient) highway, the hopeless sprawl of Long Island, the massive failures of public housing, and countless other barriers to humane living. How, inevitably, the accumulation of power became an end in itself. Moses built an empire and lived like an emperor. He was held in fear--his dossiers could disgorge the dark secret of anyone who opposed him. He was, he claimed, above politics, above deals; and through decade after decade, the newspapers and the public believed. Meanwhile, he was developing his public authorities into a fourth branch of government known as "Triborough"--a government whose records were closed to the public, whose policies and plans were decided not by voters or elected officials but solely by Moses--an immense economic force directing pressure on labor unions, on banks, on all the city's political and economic institutions, and on the press, and on the Church. He doled out millions of dollars' worth of legal fees, insurance commissions, lucrative contracts on the basis of who could best pay him back in the only coin he coveted: power. He dominated the politics and politicians of his time--without ever having been elected to any office. He was, in essence, above our democratic system. Robert Moses held power in the state for 44 years, through the governorships of Smith, Roosevelt, Lehman, Dewey, Harriman and Rockefeller, and in the city for 34 years, through the mayoralties of La Guardia, O'Dwyer, Impellitteri, Wagner and Lindsay, He personally conceived and carried through public works costing 27 billion dollars--he was undoubtedly America's greatest builder. This is how he built and dominated New York--before, finally, he was stripped of his reputation (by the press) and his power (by Nelson Rockefeller). But his work, and his will, had been done.

This is a compelling study of the man who shaped New York's built environment. A domineering, misanthropic narcissist who used every trick in the book to "get things done", Robert Moses deployed corruption, abuse of power, blackmail, legal chicanery, slander and more to ensure he got his way as he constructed parks, highways, bridges, apartment blocks and prestige projects. His highways failed to relieve traffic; his improvements often systematically and maliciously neglected minority populations; he callously condemned natural areas and communities that got in his way to demolition or ruination; he left a trail of appalled and ruined people behind him while long garnering almost unwavering public and press support. It is really something to write a 1,100-page book about a city planner that reads as a thrilling page-turner: on every page the reader will find fascinating material about how one man, who was decisively rejected on the only occasion he sought an elected position, was able to do so much and amass so much power, what kind of character that took, and what it cost the people and the city around him.

Whenever we’re forced to stay still, as we are while sheltering in place during these days of the coronavirus pandemic, many of us turn to reading in order to escape the confines of our homes—and, occasionally, of reality itself! There’s nothing quite like losing yourself in a book. But how to choose what to read?
Here’s a story that might inspire you with options in these stay-at-home, sometimes boring days.
On May 20, 1531, the youngest son of a noble and wealthy family was wounded in a terrible battle defending the citadel of Pamplona, Spain. One leg was broken and the other torn by a cannonball. He was carried to the castle that was his family home to convalesce. However, his leg did not heal. He insisted his leg be broken again and reset, all without anesthesia. During the long weeks of his recuperation, he was stuck inside and extremely bored. He requested romance novels to pass the time. There were none in the castle, but there was a copy of the life of Christ and a book on the saints. Desperate, the young soldier began to read them. The more he read, the more he would dream about great adventure in which he would imitate the saints. At other times, he continued to have daydreams of fame and glory, along with fantasies of winning the love of a certain noble lady of the court.
That young man was named Ignatius, and the family home where he was convalescing was the castle at Loyola. His reading in those difficult months of staying at home changed his life—and in many ways changed the world, as he went on to found the Society of Jesus and write the Spiritual Exercises used by millions of people.
Here’s how Ignatius described his experience—writing in the third person—while staying inside:
As Ignatius had a love for fiction, when he found himself out of danger he asked for some romances to pass away the time. In that house there was no book of the kind. They gave him, instead, “The Life of Christ,” by Rudolph, the Carthusian, and another book called the “Flowers of the Saints,” both in Spanish. By frequent reading of these books he began to get some love for spiritual things. This reading led his mind to meditate on holy things.
Taking my cue from Ignatius, I’ve been revisiting the lives of the saints in some of my own staying-at-home reading, and I’ve had a taste of what Ignatius might have felt: these are brave, stirring people, people of faith and courage, and so many of them have messages that seem perfect for our own time of uncertainty and anxiety.
Feeling trapped inside? St. Lydwine, Ven. Marthe Robin, St. Anna Schaffer were all bedridden for their entire adult lives. Are you sad and anxious? St. Augustine, St. Jane Frances de Chantal, St. Edith Stein all suffered from terrible depression. Are you afraid? St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, St. Oscar Romero, St. Augustine of Canterbury all felt nearly incapacitated at times by fear.
So it’s clear we can find the saints’ stories edifying and even helpful. But what about the other role of reading—escapism? I’d like to suggest that reading the stories of the saints is an excellent way to escape into another world.
You can find a fairytale life in the story of St. Elizabeth of Hungary, a princess who found true love—and likewise with St. Germaine Cousin, who’s been called God’s Cinderella. Or adventure—St. Columba got rid of a Scottish sea monster, St. George tamed and then killed a dragon, Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati climbed mountains, St. Bernard bred and trained rescue dogs, St. Isaac Jogues lived in a Huron village.
Whether you’re looking for inspiration or a good story—or both!—the lives of the saints might be the right reading for you, just as they were for Ignatius. You may even find a new companion who will stay with you long after your enforced time of “staying in” is over; and who doesn’t want to make a friend for life?
Looking for more inspiration? Read a biography of a saint or check out a collection of stories of these holy men and women.

Toronto tourists set a new tourism record in 2017, spending close to $9 billion dollars in the region last year.Visitors spent a total of $8,840,000,000, up $700 million from last year.
Toronto Tourism said that approximately 43,730,000 visitors came to Toronto last year, a 3.6 per cent increase from 2016.The city saw 28,200,000 same-day visitors and 15,530,000 overnight visitors.
An estimated 26,700,000 same-day travellers and 10,400,000 overnight visitors came from other Canadian cities.
Toronto saw 2,973,000 overnight visitors from the United States who spent a total of about $1,763,000,000.About 2,150,000 overnight visitors came from overseas, spending more than $2 billion.
The city also saw a spike in visits from Mexico, with 75,000 visitors in 2017, up from 44,000 the previous year.
Johanne Bélanger, president and CEO of Tourism Toronto, said in a news release, “More and more, world travellers are seeing Toronto as an exciting urban destination, and we’re seeing that with both a record number of visitors and visitor spending.”
Tourism Toronto said hotels in the region sold more than 10,000,000 room nights last year and had an occupancy rate of 76.1 per cent.
Large business conferences and the Invictus Games were among the events that drove visitors to the city last year, Tourism Toronto noted.
Bélanger’s statement continued, “Now that 2018 is here, we can look forward to the 24 city-wide conferences and events taking place throughout the Toronto region, the most Toronto has hosted in a single year.”
“Future growth indicators for the visitor economy remain strong, and that benefits Canada, Ontario, the greater Toronto region and the 329,000 people that work in tourism-related industries.”
Speaking about last year’s tourism numbers at city hall on Wednesday, Mayor John Tory congratulated all of those involved in attracting tourist to the city.
Tory said, “People want to be here and they are coming here in increasing numbers from around the world and that is really good for our economy and really good for our city’s reputation.”

Lisson Gallery 52-54 and 29 Bell Street, NW1
Ai Weiwei is one of the leading cultural figures of his generation and consistently displays great courage in placing himself at risk to affect social change through his art. He serves as an example for legitimate social criticism and free expression both in China and internationally.
Highlights of the 13 works in the exhibition include Colored Vases (2010, 2009), groupings of Han Dynasty pots (from 200DC-220AD) covered in industrial paint. An expert in ancient Chinese ceramics, Ai’s continued desecration of individual vases can be seen as political comment on the organized destruction of cultural and historical values that took place during the Cultural Revolution, when everything old was replaced by the new. In questioning value and defacing tradition Ai is confronting the legacy of past generations with the needs and experiences of the present. At the same time he gives a new perspective on contemporary commodifications.

People have used the phrase “drone on and on” for a long time. Webster’s dictionary defines this figure of speech as “to speak for a long time in a dull voice without saying anything interesting.”
Yet, in agriculture, drones aren’t dull, at all.
Farmers use drones to be more efficient. Drones help farmers improve yields and stay ahead of problems before they become too big.
Olga Walsh, University of Idaho, is researching the use of drones for fruit trees. Most of the agricultural applications for drones – or, more technically unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) – have been on grain crops like wheat, corn and soy.
“Adoption and use of crop sensors in production agriculture saves thousands of dollars every year in many crops,” says Walsh. “Crop sensors also help to significantly improve the efficiency of agricultural inputs, such as fertilizers and water. Finally, drones can minimize negative impacts of agricultural activities on environmental quality.”
In Idaho in the US, the fruit industry grows grapes, cranberries, apples, and even alternative fruits like Asian pears. Apples are the largest fruit crop in Idaho, with over 60 million pounds of apples produced per year.
Walsh’s research team focused on applying UAV technology to fruit trees. Her previous work has been with wheat and other crops. “We know drones can be used in orchards,” says Walsh. “But there aren’t any grower recommendations regarding what data needs to be collected and what kind of data is most useful, depending on the grower objective.”
The most promising ways the drones could be employed for the orchards and tree nurseries are:
- taking inventory of tree height and canopy volume;
- monitoring tree health and quality;
- managing water, nutrients, pests and disease in-season;
- estimating fruit/nut production and yield; and,
- creating marketing tools (videos for promotion of the orchard, or sale of trees and fruit).
Like with other uses of drones in agriculture, Walsh’s work helps to collect detailed information about the crops, faster than humans could by physically “scouting” the fields. “The UAVs are capable of acquiring images with high resolutions that are ideal for detecting various crop issues,” says Walsh.
“The UAV systems allow scanning the crops from above. They obtain high quality images and high-resolution spectral data. This is correlated with plant growth, health, water and nutrient status, and can be used to estimate biomass production.” All are indicators of potential yield.
It’s not just about the speed of scouting a field. “Sensors can function within regions of the electromagnetic spectrum where human eyes can’t,” says Walsh. “Sensors are much more reliable and objective than visual assessment. They provide quantitative information (numeric data that can be measured and compared) versus qualitative information (descriptive data that can be observed).”
Team members also perform outreach. “We conduct grower education on the use of remote sensing and using UAVs for crop monitoring,” says Walsh. “We do demonstration flights and produce publications to boost grower adoption of precision agriculture methods.”
“The overall goal of this work is to strengthen sustainability and competitiveness of Idaho fruit tree producers,” says Walsh. “Our findings increased awareness, knowledge, and adoption of crop sensors and UAVs.”
Walsh presented her work at the International Annual Meeting of the American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America in San Antonio. Funding for this project came from the Idaho State Department of Agriculture Nursery Advisory and Florist Advisory Committee.

How to invest your money in the future
A hotel’s hotel room is an investment thesis.
The goal of a hotel is to make a profit on guests.
And with that comes a profit for the owner.
That profit comes from guests, the hotel and its owner.
So, to maximize the profit, you need to maximize your investment thesis and your hotel room.
How do you do that?
A hotel should be one of the few places you can earn a profit.
But it should be an investment, and so the hotel should have a high investment thesis to make the profit.
And, if you do, you should be able to make your profits while staying in the hotel.
The investment thesis also helps to protect the hotel from bankruptcy.
That means the hotel is more secure when the owner goes under.
And if the hotel goes under, you’ll still have the profit from the hotel, and you’ll be able pay down your debt.
That way, you can live comfortably in your hotel, but you can also use the money you’ve made on your investments to pay down debt, invest in your home, buy a car or get a new computer.
Investing in your investments The key to maximizing the investment thesis is to look at the investment opportunities that exist in your industry.
In the tourism industry, for example, you’d need to look for hotels that are offering a wide range of hotel rooms, from the luxurious to the affordable.
You need to choose one hotel that will satisfy your budget, so you can make the best decisions about how much you want to spend.
And that means you need the hotel to have a low investment thesis — a high level of profit — to make it worthwhile.
You can get a high ratio of profit to investment in hotels by selecting the most affordable hotels.
The best hotels also have a good balance of investment and profit, which can make them a great place to live.
And the ratio is a good indicator of whether the hotel will be profitable.
To maximize your hotel’s investment thesis in the tourism business, you want your hotel to be one that has a high proportion of the total number of rooms in its portfolio, the total amount of money it spends on lodging and hotel services.
The higher the ratio, the more profitable your hotel is.
The good news is that most hotels have ratios above 3.
The bad news is many hotels do not have ratios of this type.
That is, if the ratio of the hotel’s overall portfolio is 2 or 3, it can be considered a “safe bet” to invest in a hotel.
If your hotel has a ratio of 1, however, it’s not safe to invest at all.
If the ratio does not have a ratio, it may be more profitable to take a gamble.
This is why hotels that have ratios below 1 are considered “safe bets” to investors.
In other words, they have a strong potential for a profit, but it’s important to understand the risks involved before making a decision.
Here’s how to find a safe bet.
A good investment thesis The investment objective of a good hotel is the highest percentage of profits you can get from your investment.
So a hotel with a high profit is a safe investment.
But you can’t just buy a hotel, you have to invest.
You also need to be able take on debt.
The first thing you need is to find out how much debt your hotel needs to be profitable, or if it can survive without it.
The ratio of your hotel budget to the amount of debt is called the ratio.
To find out the ratio for your hotel in the industry, you’ve got to find hotels with ratios below 3.
You’ll also need a good investment plan.
You don’t want to invest more than you can afford to lose.
If you invest too much, you will lose money, and your investment will be less profitable than if you invested less.
To determine your ratio, you just need to calculate how much of the revenue your hotel will receive in the year you plan to stay.
So for example if your hotel gets $150 million in revenue in the first year, that means it’ll receive $150,000 in operating revenue.
And because it’s a hotel that earns a lot of revenue, you may want to consider investing more than your budget allows.
But if you invest more, your ratio will be lower.
So you’ll have to make adjustments to the plan that you’ll follow in order to maximize profitability.
How to choose a good plan For most hotel owners, the first step in determining if you should invest in the business is to ask them how much they are willing to spend on their hotel.
Many hotel owners will tell you that they have no idea how much money they will need to spend in the next year.
But they also may tell you how much room they will be able provide.
The hotel owner should have no problem answering your questions.
You should be clear that you’re interested in investing in the company and you’re willing

The Deceptively Cute Game Growing Faster Than Any Company in History
A lot of people stating this is a Ponzi or a pyramid scheme and using the premise that the game economy will only continue to work if new players join and put money into the economy in the form of purchasing axies for a high price. Isn't this the case for any business with employees? Seems obvious to me that if there is no repeat business/sales the economy (business) will shrink, it's up to the game developers to keep developing new and exciting reasons for the business to grow and people to re-invest into the economy which they clearly state they will try to do through community lead decisions and further game development. I wish innovation in blockchain wasn't so quick to be labelled as Ponzi and pyramid all the time. Any economy/business relies on the sale of products which is the continued injection of money. Very interesting to watch this play out, I am involved with a small investment. I think the business lessons I learn from watching this economy play out will be worth a couple of thousand dollars which is my investment, if I earn some money on top of that then fantastic but not expected. Good real-world education on economics.
This was an exceptional read. As a long-term community builder who has maybe less attention to crypto that I should have (it just got captured early in the scene I'm in by a group I don't love), thank you for helping me expand & blow my mind with the opportunities and possibilities here.
Hi Packy, thanks for the great breakdown, though I struggle to understand the long term model because it feels like Axie violates the idea that one gets paid to bring utility to the world.
Axie allows players to play-to-earn and this could be the future where many players, especially those in poverty-stricken or poorly managed countries (SEA, Venezuela, etc) can earn a living doing so.
What I struggle to wrap my head around is how this ties in to the utility of the platform - sure it's great that one could play this game and earn SLP that is 5x what I would've earned in my country, but what is the utility that I'm being paid for?
Typically, a person works towards the real economy and gets paid $x for their work to provide utility to someone else. For example, one would work in a cafe as a waiter and help distribute real world goods and services so that other users have utility such as being able to drink coffee, eat snacks. There is a trickle down effect on the economy where a user pays $5 for a drink, and of that say $1 goes to the water, $2 goes to rent, $1 to utilities and $1 to cafe owner.
Even When you talk about other game developers, users either 1) pay to play the game such as WoW, or any games you purchase on Steam/Epic etc or 2) play the game for free but get monetized another way such as ads or user data. The idea is that one enjoys the utility of the game to their lives (destressing, role-playing, adventure and excitement, or just killing boredom) and pays for that utility directly or indirectly. The game studio have to invest up front, and hopefully earn their risk-adjusted cost of capital over the lifecycle of monetizing the game.
In this Axie pay-to-earn model, the player is getting paid to play the game but it generates no real world utility for anybody else. I get that the game is skill-based, but who's providing the payment to these players? They are playing to earn money and replacing jobs that have an impact on the economy. My intuition is there must be utility created out of this game but I cannot identify what that utility is, who is enjoying it and why they are getting paid.
It circles back to the a longstanding issue in DeFi which can be summarized in the question of "where is the yield coming from?". A simple example is in a degen yield farm. Buyers who don't understand the tokenomics and token dilution end up being exit liquidity by supporting the price as the token dilutes massively. A few months ago, forking swaps was all the hype so what you get is a ABCswap offering ABCtoken if you pool your liquidity there, and giving you 99999% APR. That's effectively printing banana money and you can make a nice amount if you get out before it collapses. If there is no spill-over utility in playing Axies and it ends up effectively printing SLP to pay users to incentivize them to be onboarded and play, doesn't it end up similar to a degen yield farm but disguised another way? One way to picture it is effectively, whoever is buying SLP/AXS is supporting the dilution and supporting the yield to these players in PH (they can be thought of as the LP providers in degen yield farms)
If we assume a nice chunk of the PH population plays this game instead of working and is able to earn returns significantly above that of working in PH either informally or formally, then the PH economy suffers some removal of productive labor. Let's say 50% of the population is playing this since this earns better than base income - what happens to the PH economy? If they can cash it out and purchase goods and services that still support it, but we'll also see labor shortages and collapse of the informal economy. From my exp majority of informal economy is in distribution (what we call general trade) and that is how most goods and services penetrate outside of T1 cities. Removing those will have significant impact to all stakeholders - FMCG supplier, distribution, consumers, logistics etc.
So yes it sounds nice that players play to earn and can earn more than their base line income. But what are they getting paid for, and who is keeping up this yield? I'm not sure of the answers myself but I suspect under the model of gaming and NFTs, it's basically a degen yield farm model - which BTW I understand every yield farm has to start somewhere, but one way to think is if one thinks the 99999% APRs of a degen yield farm is not sustainable, why would the profits earnable in this game through SLP be any different?
Hi! This would be my first and last time messaging you. I just want to let you know that I appreciate your hard work for axie but to be honest, I personally can't feel any different with the server situation a week ago. I play axie to earn and relieve my stress at work. But during this past few days, I feel that you also vent your anger towards your clients by telling us to shut up and not offering a decent plan to make things work. I maybe clouded with rage as of the moment since I only earned frustrations playing axie. I want to express that as a client, it doesn't help when you chose not to inter act with us and keeping us always in the dark. I pray that you make haste with your plans so that your clients can keep their sanity. I know don't care for what a new comer like me but then again I want to thank axie for the 1st month that I enjoy the game and I want to curse it because with a short span of 7 days it game me lots of stress and 0 satisfaction. As you've said earlier, axie is a marathon but running a marathon like an idiot who doesn't know where and when it will finish is just insane for my end. Thank you and sorry for venting my frustrations with you. I cannot help to do this since you're the only person I can message to atleast alleviate what's inside me.
Message to Jiho. I can't send this to your discord.
This article turned out to be incredibly wrong and irresponsible. Can you please do a post mortem on what went wrong with your analysis?
Many of the dynamics concerning this game have been misunderstood, so let me clarify and get my points across:
1) The overwhelming majority of players come from "developing" countries. They see Axie Infinity PURELY from a play-to-earn perspective. The average monthly salary in the Philippines is $200. They can't afford to buy axies - instead they earn via scholarships.
2) It's not that new people enter the ecosystem via buying 3 axies and starting to play the game. New entrants receive 3 axies from scholarships. So the supply of axies comes from people who breed their axies.
3) THE QUESTION WE SHOULD BE ASKING OURSELVES IS: At which price of SLP do all these people stop playing the game because it's not worth their time anymore? Current SLP minted (supply) vs burnt (demand) dynamics are driving the price of SLP down. As of September, 27th, we are at 0.07 cents / SLP. So an average player makes about 0.07*150SLP = 10.50USD per day. Most of the players are scholars, so they get a 50%-70% cut, e.g. 5.25-7.35USD.
Good piece! Here are some questions/feedback:
> As Howard mentioned, this is a strategic game. It depends more on skill than luck of the draw.
I think it mainly depends on which Axies you buy. In fact, Axie is very much play-to-win. There's only so far skill can take you—if you spend more money on Axies with better stats and abilities, you have a huge advantage.
> 48% said they played for the economy, forming a solid base of people building livings on the platform, but 37% said that their main motivation is the community
Would love a source for this.
> People buy Axies as pets. There are two billion pet owners worldwide, 99.99999% of whom buy pets knowing that they’ll lose a lot of money. Axie is already attracting many people who just buy their Axies as pets with no expectation of return.
Would also love a source for this.
Great piece thank you. Lots of smart technologies and innovating problem-solving. It does feel like this is the beginning of something new that has the potential to be big, most likely for beyond Axie.
Color me as skeptical as far as this being the solution to long term money generation for 3rd world citizens goes. I don't doubt one bit there is quite a lot of money to be made here, but that doesn't mean this is a sound and long term financial solution or plan. With the little knowledge I gathered from the article I see 2 potential issues, I'd love to hear other people's feedback on this.
1. This is a pyramid or ponzi scheme, not a value generator. This system works only as long as new players are willing to lay many hundreds of dollars to get into the game. New players pay existing players to enter the game and you can see already the pyramid drawing itself. I'm sure a lot of money can be made here for quite some time, but one day there'll be more existing players than new players willing to lay cash to get in, and the law of supply and demand will apply and prices will fall to eventually be close to zero when supply will far exceed demand. Players don't create or generate anything new or valuable here, they basically just sell an access to the game.
Also, selling digital land is an interesting concept, as speculators will be able to invest, buy and sell properties and just like in real life and with digital currencies, some could make a lot of money and some could lose a lot of money too. But this is nothing like having a job and generating a steady cash flow by generating some output and have Mr. market reward you with some dollars. Nothing wrong with that, but again, I'd question the long term sustainability of it or the wisdom to rely on it as everyday income.
2. The whole system works for as long as people perceive this as being a good solution to their financial problems. The day something else pops and has better return and more flashy features, people will move to that new thing. I doubt the moat is as big as you seem to think. If I have an egg farm, as long as people eat eggs I should do relatively well, independent on whether you think I'm the next big thing or not. If you buy eggs, out of necessity, I'll be making money. Whereas here, I should be ok for as long as people think this is the next big thing. The perception of people is what creates it's value as it doesn't really generate any value on its own.
That's not to say it'll be impossible to make a living on these platforms, but I just don't see this as the Eden garden, but just the best place to make money while playing a game until the next big thing is out and replaces it.
With all that said, I think this is still good news as it's innovating and bringing a lot of new concepts that could be the basis the next big thing will be an iteration of this, most likely.
Nice ponzi. This is so simple... SLP price will crash sooner or later due this massive and ridiculous inflation. People gets paid on SLP by giving nothing on exchange which in the long run will make this coin near to 0. As the price of SLP goes lower people won't find any excuse on playing this game
Hope they can solve the issue about old ronin address disconnection to our axie account>>>and connect to another new ronin wallet—reason for the issue-to have again an access for transaction in the marketplace because of lost seed phrase>also make the migration of axie appear :/
Good day manager,I'm willing to schoolar if choose me
Location: payatas Philippines
I'm willing to schoolar if you choose me
Because helping my mother and my daughter also I'm willing to schoolar thank you
Фantastic read, Packy! Learned something new and got hungry for more own research! I also agree that while there are structural risks (crypto-related), Axies major risks is boredom - how to create and amuse customers?
At which point I started to recall my adolences and countless hours spent with Final Fantasy. Wouldnt that be also a logical move to Play2Earn for SquareEnix?
The read is deep yet captivating. The data is also impressive. While some statements disguise themselves as deductive conclusions instead of speculation it is clearly a well written & informative piece.
If you get a scholarship you can start playing, but right now that is the only way unless you have at least $600usd. I dont see myself playing this game for that reason, its price is just too high.

LAKHIMPUR: May 4: Muga silk and related industry is potent enough to establish a unique identity of Assam in the world. Despite having such potential, the industry is under tremendous threat at present in the whirlpool of changing time and alleged negligence shown by the State Government. Alarming death of thousands of Muga silk worms has nipped the dreams of a group of Muga cultivators in Dhakuakhona Sub-division of Lakhimpur district in the bud during the last few days. The reason behind the unexpected phenomenon is considered to be the non-judicious use of the insecticides and pesticides in the small tea gardens near the Muga silk worm rearing arenas of the sub division.
It is here to be noted that the North Eastern Region of the nation is enriched with sericulture bio-diversity and the place is believed to be the origin of Antheraea species in the world. Muga silk is produced by a worm of Antheraea Assama species which is confined only to North-eastern India. The intensive cultivation of this worm is found in the Brahmaputra valley of the State. Lakhimpur district in general and Dhakuakhona Sub-division in particular is the traditional Muga growing area in the world.
As per report, there are 10,000 traditional Muga cultivators in the sub-division who are actively involved in this culture covering an area about 1600 hectares of land with Muga food plants. In most cases these cultivators are not integrated regarding Muga production; but they have conserved the culture and respective bio-resources through interlinking it with their crop cycle since time immemorial. They are unknowingly following the principle of sustainable agriculture with this endeavor. It provides them a way to earn their bread and thus production of Muga silk has assumed the status of an industrial system. Apart from generation of income and employment, Muga cultivation can be utilized for environmental up-gradate too by expanding the Muga growing areas with Muga food plantation like Machilus odoratissima, locally known as Chom Gash.
Under such circumstances, just four days ago, the unexpected death of thousands of matured Muga silk worms, locally known as Jethua Muga and Bor Muga, has caused heartrending grief to around one hundred Muga cultivators who jointly reared these worms at the Muga chomanis (Chom tree plantation area for Muga rearing) located at the Dhenukhona-Batomari-Kothalpora area under Ghilamora Police Station of the sub-division covering over one hundred bighas of land.
The reason behind the disaster is considered to be the spraying of pesticides and insecticides a day ago in the small tea gardens nearby the chomanis. It is known that these cultivators collected these muga seeds from border area of Nagaland, Garo Hills and Goalpara district spending around rupees twelve lakh and they expected to earn more than a crore through Muga silk production. The phenomenon led the victim Muga cultivators to file an FIR at Ghilamora Police Station against small scale tea planters Duleswar Gogoi, Pranab Gogoi, Bhodreswar Gogoi, Mina Gogoi, Hemanta Gogoi, Ruhiteswar Gogoi, to name a few, seeking justice and compensation. While a case has been registered, the probe launched by Ghilamora Police has hit the roadblock as regards the cause of the death of the silk worms.
Meanwhile, the affected Muga cultivators are seeking the interventions of Lakhimpur DC and the concerned department to help them in coping with the disastrous situation.

Practice Management Center Read Our Story Everyone is born with a fixed number of hair follicles on the scalp that produce hairs throughout life. Hair grows from the base of the follicle at a rate of about one centimetre a month for about three years. This growth phase is called anagen. After anagen, the hair dies (catagen hair) and no longer grows. It sits dormant in the follicle for a three-month phase called telogen. After telogen, the hair follicle undergoes another anagen phase to produce a new hair that grows out of the same follicle. As it grows, the old telogen hair is dislodged or pushed out. This is a cycle that continues throughout life.

Lysine is the most difficult amino acid to get enough of via diet. Lysine helps transport iron, which is the most important element in the body and essential for many metabolic processes. When lysine and iron levels are low, the body probably switches some hair follicles off to increase levels elsewhere. Meat, fish and eggs are the only food sources of lysine. There are also supplements that contain lysine.

Macouns (rhymes with town) are extra sweet and aromatic, with a juicy and tender snow-white flesh. Excellent for eating or making sauce.
These fresh apples are best stored in a paper bag in the refrigerator.
Bill and Andrea at Champlain Orchards are committed to ecological practices and are Eco-Apple certified. Due to the challenges of our Northeast climate, organic certification of apples is incredibly difficult. Their apples are never sprayed; only in the flowering stage are the trees treated using Integrated Pest Management to cut down on the risk of scab. No chemical pesticides are used on the orchards.
I don't even know what to say about these Macouns; they are SO sweet and good. Possibly, the best apples EVER.
We discovered Macoun apples this season while apple-picking, and they're now one of my favorite apples ever (alongside Fuji and Honeycrisps) - crisp, juicy, and wonderful for eating. Perhaps because they're so juicy, I didn't think they held up *quite* as well as other varieties when I tried roasting them in the oven - I was surprised how much water bubbled up on the pans -- but once blended, they made a pretty delicious applesauce anyway.
As good as ever! These are always my favorites.

Have you ever heard of aluminium bronze? It is an alloy of copper and aluminum, and it is incredibly strong and durable. It has been used in various industries, from aerospace engineering to shipping, for many years. This blog post will explore some of the many uses of aluminium bronze and how it can benefit businesses across various industries.
Uses of Aluminium Bronze
With a high intensity of anti-corrosive properties, aluminium bronze has become an increasingly popular material used by engineers. This alloy of copper and aluminum is able to withstand corrosive atmospheres as well as seawater, which has made it the perfect choice for many marine applications. In fact, many naval vessels such as ships and submarines are now being built using components made from aluminium bronze. Besides its use in naval engineering, aluminium bronze can also be found in other industrial settings, offering corrosion protection for parts that operate under extreme temperatures or that come into contact with harsh chemicals. From internal engine parts to power transmission gearboxes and even piping systems, this alloy is a widely sought after product due to its incredible strength and toughness.
Aluminium bronze is often used in the aerospace industry because it is incredibly lightweight yet very strong. This makes it ideal for use in aircraft components such as landing gear, engine mounts, and fuselage frames. Aluminium bronze also offers superior resistance to corrosion, which helps protect aircraft from rusting or corroding due to extreme weather conditions.
This alloy has been used in marine applications for centuries due to its excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion. It is often used for propeller shafts, stern tubes, rudder stocks, and other boat parts that can withstand saltwater exposure without sustaining damage or corrosion. Aluminium bronze also provides superior wear resistance compared to other alloys making it ideal for ships that need reliable parts that can withstand long periods of time at sea without requiring frequent maintenance or repair.
Aluminium bronze is often used in the manufacturing industry because it can withstand high temperatures without being damaged or deformed. It is commonly used as a bearing material because it has excellent wear resistance and good thermal conductivity properties, which help maintain proper lubrication levels while preventing overheating during operation. Additionally, aluminium bronze offers superior machinability, which allows manufacturers to create precise components quickly and efficiently while reducing costs associated with production downtime due to errors or repairs.
Aluminium bronze is an incredibly versatile material that can be used in various industries, including aerospace engineering, marine applications, and manufacturing components. Its strength and durability make it ideal for creating reliable parts that can withstand extreme conditions without suffering damage or wearing out quickly. Its superior corrosion resistance also makes it an excellent choice for parts that need protection from saltwater or other corrosive elements. If your business requires strong yet lightweight components, then aluminium bronze may be the perfect solution!
