bamboo in the phone and in front of the mouse

Is not that a great Orange? Once treated with linseed oil and Urucum is more of a yellow-orange similar to the "Indian yellow". The second time it will be toll-orange. Only against the mold, I have found nothing. Currently, once again 100 percent humidity, as well as moldy dried and treated bamboo. In general moldy everything: shoes, cupboards and even CDs. Only the wood shelf that I have taken up with chemistry (Hydronort, a kind of spar varnish), is mold-free.

Our new phone. The old one had at least eight years on the hump, has closed its service. The new one was immediately provided with the background image. It is a bamboo grove in Kyoto. I found the photo on the net on a German site and was thrilled. Whether the photographer knows that Motorola is using his photo as wallpaper?

The mobile phone we need, because we do not have a phone line on our property and in view of the installation cost of 4000 R $ (!) As soon not have. At one point, the top of the hill but there is cell phone reception. I am intrigued by the price. Just 49 R $ it has cost about 19 €. Unbelievable cheap. Because once again walk away 15 R $ for the supplied chip. Stay mobile phone costs 34 R $. After deduction of transport costs and taxes (here at 60% though!), Would only stay still so left around 15 reais product costs. No idea how can make such a concentration of technology for the price (about 5 €!). I guess that it is sold below cost, because it is a bit outdated, has no built fotoaparát and all other Gedöhnse that nobody needs anyway, such as radio or TV. Not that I am opposed to radio or television. On the contrary. I use both. But not on the phone with the phone.

the bamboo forum they have recently introduced a cell phone with bamboo housing. More specifically, glued bamboo. Looks like a wood veneer, very noble.

Christian Phrase Tattoo



linseed oil with Urucum, two hours, heated in water bath. Looks like John's wort oil. To promote wound healing and even - except that it turns everything orange. 've Already tried the bamboo roughened with sandpaper and rubbed with the oil. Is really beautiful. Photos of the result, I will set the next day.

flowers in bamboo - declaration of love for breakfast ...

A big package arrived from my Ma, which has led to the chaos in our kitchen bigger and I became the Indian ... The great thing is, it should still get a package. This time of the Erika. Too bad that there is currently so much rain that delayed the delivery a little. But who knows, maybe even come out on Tuesday the sun and the Packerl an ...

Is not become great? This is Alessandro's bamboo lamp. The inside is a green soaked in oil origami paper (yes, Sabine, which of you, I have sacrificed a potential crane ...). The paper will, however, at some point of an acrylic shell made by the bending in the same, if I accidentally pick up on it ...

Imagine, today we were actually at the Environment Agency. It took some time. First, it had rained in torrents. Then the car the exhaust is again dropped. Fortunately we were already on the shop nearby. Then suddenly missing documents about which I was sure that I had already printed. Yes, and because Murphy's Law reigns in us, the ink had dried on the printer. When I had yesterday but at last, all the points, kept me anything today. Not even the heavy rain. Maybe you're thinking that I spin a little, because of the rain. The rain is often all but as if he were paid down with rain. Then I see as much as when I crawl through a car wash. The blacktop the road turns into a skating game while still full of holes, which are then sheer puddles unrecognizable as such. These are still the idiots who think Baricelli play and risk the lives of other road users need to. All this played no role for me today. The car was filled up, the tire pressure checked, and the new exhaust welded, replaced the missing documents. It took a while before I could persuade my sweet to the task. Then everything went completely painless. The Assistant to the Environmental Agency was very friendly. She was probably a little of the thousands of papers impressed that I have served as her Sun Many of them were provided with official stamps, others have had I copy and certify with a seal, so they hermachen more. Woman learns to do so. Stamp paper and impressed, so I filled them both. Also good that the topographer, who has taken our land (ha, just once outside, the rest of the computer!) Is the environmental agency known as reliable. His name on one of the papers has flayed the same impression. It could be that we have in two weeks would get out a visit, said the assistant. Which we then explained that we for the construction of the house would make no request as long as it is built outside the provisions for nature conservation areas. Alessandro could not keep his mouth shut and has even just been made to the law, after just a permit is already required. May be, the girl said, but to get it, should not be a problem. I won! NO PROBLEM! Wish us once crossed that the officer see the same way. Ye gods and spirits, is with us ....

Actually, we would have had to wait still the decision by the Office of colonization, in order to apply for the tax numbers. The tax number is required by the Environment Agency namely, that they ever the application process. The Office of colonization seems in spite of the early spring or winter rest to rule. Several calls have led to no result. I explained to the nice assistant at the Environmental Agency and its equally be given more copies of the applications for the Office of colonization, then the certified signatures of all neighbors do to prove that the property exists and is ours and the neighbors it is recognized. Yes, and it worked .... Jippih ... If I had champagne on hand now, I would drink a Stampferl it. I get to where the officer was with us on the property and has given us his OK!

So to us the next two weeks pressing our fingers crossed. Please ...

What Does The * Mean In Calculator



"Now I just need Urucum" I say to Re. Her name is actually Rechelaine (pronounced Rescheleine), but all call it Re, said, "He". Re is one of our neighbors. It reminds me a little of my Rosina from home. Both are very down to earth and hide huge treasures of knowledge that most of us know only from books and documentaries. "Ha," says Re, "I know where a growing shrub. As on land next to the Japanese." Already we trudge along towards Japanese. As it stands, the shrub. Even has some seed capsules, which are already cracked. Later, Alessandro and I go again out to harvest a few pods.


Gross is not the yield. For starters, it's enough, however. For now, I only want to try again, what can be produced for color is it and how can I use it on the bamboo.


Together with cat Sissi I Puhle the seeds from the capsules. Sissi is wild about the seed pods that look almost like the capsules of the book Eggern. That the colored Urucum actually, I notice it after a few minutes, with a look at my fingers. They are orange-red, as I would have just handled with henna. After that I'll have the seeds crushed in a mortar and a first attempt Start with linseed oil.


Urucum growing almost everywhere in South America. The kitchen is similar to saffron as a dye used, for example, to brown sauces or chicken. Some food manufacturers prefer the coloring of Urucum (INS160b) the artificial dyes. It is probably cheaper. He is also healthier. Therefore, it is not surprising that Urucum was discovered even in the cosmetics industry. Who knows, maybe you have it you ever been so smeared on the lips. For instead of the red of the lipstick from lice or gain artificial blood, can also Urucum use the top of that from UV rays intended to protect. The eco-cosmetics company Aveda has come up with the benefits in 1992 and initiates convince even some projects with Tribos of Indios in the Amazon. The company buys the Indians from the Urucum at a much higher price than they would get from local dealers. A report to follow the U.S. company has invested well eingie dollars in the construction of schools, hospitals and solar panels for the Indians. "Rio 92" as it should be: Eco-friendly and socially responsible Komerz.

Another addendum to yesterday:

split the bamboo in a green state, it pulls together different degrees during drying. Thus, from the former round bamboo a "roller bamboo. The crack is only up to the first diaphragm. The diaphragms are like crack brakes.

groping

some point we should light the way to the tulip house ...

Seen In daylight, it looks like this:


Fast it is ready, our first bamboo lamp. My lesson. Working with her has taught me that the bamboo is actually not wood. Wood can be beschnitzen easier. No, the statement is not really. Probably the Beschnitzen of bamboo is also quite easy, once I know its idiosyncrasies better. For wood white I forked branches, deposits, roots, since breaks around the wood. When it comes, however, bamboo cracks quickly when I carve vertically. He is a little brittle. Almost like elm. Vertical sashayed carving knife better. Since then I have to extra careful that there are no cracks.

edit I have the bamboo in green condition, I need less power than when it is already almost dry. This has the disadvantage that leaner spacers bend later on drying in any direction. The picture that comes out maybe not, but by bending, the right blade a little shifted to the inside. Three break points, all on the right side, almost on each other located, but not yet exactly one above the other, I have the hammer out of the hole structure caused. I'll stick with wood glue afterwards.



The light will be colored red. For this I must first grind a little. The skin is like a bamboo treated with wax or shellac surface, it is smooth and wasserabweusend, takes so little to color. Some mix of fine sand into the paint to achieve so that the color is not just dripping, but can be spread evenly. I'll try it first with roughening. A color I would like to use a mixture of linseed oil and pigments. Maybe I will Add the egg yolk with, so that the pigments better with the linseed oil mix. We'll see. The pigments I bought but not yet, but already selected. My choice has fallen on the "Urucum. A shrub-like plant that grows here in the Atlantic Forest and is used by the Indians to paint the body, and to keep away mosquitoes.

Here is a photo of Urucum (Bixa orellana ) that I have made near São Paulo ...



With our history it is home this week, unfortunately, did not go ahead. The Office of colonization has not yet summoned our request. Sigh. In addition, the rainy season started and changed the access to the property in a several decimetres deep mud road. We absolutely have to install a drainage or drainage channels. For a few hundred meters and very clayey, compacted soil is no fun task. However necessary.

I have finally managed to program the home page for a friend and ready to install, including database. If everything goes fine. The Seppl me spoil the soup but still quite nice. No "thank you", not "feeling it has come", no nothing. On the contrary, in the tone of an ancient ruler, he has demanded changes petty and large additions. First, I have given in, because the Courtesy of many people who live here on the coast, not so. Especially if they already have a little more money than the average, forget you ever fallen into the polite and rule. When, however, always arrived early morning calls from the Lord Ruler, I made my courtesy back and explained that I will take any calls because I namely at night on its site work and so late go to bed and generally do not one before that I should keep to his "waking hours". For I have mine, and if he wants something from me, he must abide by my waking hours. This has been sitting. After that it was only afternoon Calls. After the two-thousandth of Rulers call me last night but still cracked the collar, which meant that I've blocked a couple of applications on the site simple. He promptly called today, without saying "good day". Instead of "Excuse me, I would have got a question," he bleated into the phone, but now that I should change everything, because nothing more inputs. In a very polite tone, I explained to him that the reason is because I have blocked the sites and I would lift the blockades again only if he has learned to behave. Then I hung up. Since then, radio silence and me and my peace of mind it's damned good again.
