A.I. or - Thinking outside the box! Mind Control is the first Owner's Manual that will help usher in a new species of human being, a species who will respect their home planet and put it first above all other priorities. I call him 'Homo Planetae' or Man of the Planet.

In 2012, McCagg and her husband, Carl, built an off-grid, solar-powered house in Jaffrey, New Hampshire. It was to be a weekend getaway for the writer (what’s this pitchfork for?) and trombonist (a wannabe farmer). In December, with two cats and six newly adopted chicks, they drove up to Jaffrey from their home in Providence, Rhode Island, ostensibly just for the winter so their new pipes wouldn’t freeze....

Their work shows that when given a choice of natural foods, livestock have an astoundingly refined palate, nibbling through the day on as many as fifty kinds of grasses, forbs, and shrubs to meet their nutritional needs with remarkable precision.

In 1908, near Folsom, New Mexico, a cowboy discovered the remains of a herd of extinct giant bison. By examining flint points embedded in the bones, archeologists later determined that a band of humans had killed and butchered the animals 12,450 years ago. This discovery vastly expanded America's known human history but also revealed the long-standing danger Homo sapiens presented to the continent's evolutionary richness. Distinguished scholar Dan Flores's ambitious history chronicles the epoch in which humans and animals have coexisted in the "wild new world" of North America.

L'11 marzo 2011, un potentissimo tsunami si abbatté sulle coste del Giappone, provocando la morte di quasi sedicimila persone. A Fukushima, in quello che divenne il più devastante incidente industriale di tutti i tempi, centinaia di uomini e donne rimasero da solia fronteggiare il surriscaldamento incontrollato dei reattori, con il destino dell'intero Paese appeso a un filo. In pochi sanno cosa è successo davvero in quei giorni, e ancora meno sanno perché è successo. Come è stato possibile che uno stato così all'avanguardia nella tecnologia si facesse trovare impreparato?
