A Urine Powered Generator. An amazing accomplishment by four brilliant girls. The girls are are Duro-Aina Adebola (14), Akindele Abiola (14), Faleke Oluwatoyin (14) and Bello Eniola (15).
 
 
  • 1 Liter of urine gives you 6 hours of electricity.

  • The system works like this:

    • Urine is put into an electrolytic cell, which separates out the hydrogen.
    • The hydrogen goes into a water filter for purification, which then gets pushed into the gas cylinder.
    • The gas cylinder pushes hydrogen into a cylinder of liquid borax, which is used to remove the moisture from the hydrogen gas.
    • This purified hydrogen gas is pushed into the generator.

This is amazing. Give them a billion dollars right now. They may have just saved the planet. 

folks are doing a PISS poor job of reblogging this.

Kale is a winter veggie and this season we’re here to EAT IT ALL! Starting with Almost Vegan Chef’s PIZZA KALE CHIPS. These are off-the-charts insanely good, and this is coming from someone who normally only likes to eat the three C’s — Cake, Cookies, and iCe cream. OK?? Legit.

The extremes people go to on these craze diets. “Paleo” “Atkins” “South Beach” 
—&gt; Diets don’t work. Lifestyle changes do. 
I remember back in ‘97 my dad took a drug called fen phen (fenfluramine/phentermine). Fenfluramine acts as a serotonin releasing agent and phentermine as a norepinephrine, dopamine and serotonin releasing agent. He’s 6”1 and went from 270lbs to 200lbs, but as a result he couldn’t remember where he was, he once passed out on our doorstep because he thought it was his bed, and he once drove me to school forgetting to actually take me with him. 
The drug was eventually recalled because people started dying. Go figure… My aunt took fen phen as well, and when it was recalled, they both gained the weight back. My aunt had gastric bypass surgery two years ago. Despite having a band around her stomach, she still eats the same foods, and she’s still overweight and at risk for another heart attack.
My point is this, there is no miracle pill. There is no miracle procedure. There is no option other than healthy eating. I feel bad for my dad, I really do. He was raised a butcher’s son with no limitations. He grew up in the 50’s during the rise of the TV dinner and artificially flavored confectionery treats. As a result, my dad and my aunt have struggled with their weight their entire lives.  
Processed foods are chemically designed to taste better and the receptors in your body that feel for both pleasure and energy conservation are most attracted to them because they are ideal for achieving both. They also taste so good that your body craves more of them, likening the pleasure seeking behaviors of an addict, which in turn makes it really hard to monitor and maintain balanced eating habits. 
These foods have higher caloric values and will not completely fill the stomach. For example, 500 calories of processed or fatty foods will taste good and give you energy but won’t fill you up, meaning more consumption of more processed or fatty foods more often to feel full. While 500 calories of whole grain plant based foods will fill you up entirely resulting in less consumption of food overall. 
If it’s a plant, eat it. If it was made in a plant, don’t. The lengths people will go to lose weight seems a lot harder than the obvious: Eat right. Eat less junk. Work out. Common sense is the “miracle diet.” #vegansofig

P.S. the “socialist” remark is a joke. It’s not a bad thing, it’s meant to be funny. I hate that I have to explain that, but I do.

You’re not as saggy as you think you are.

If breasts were as perky all the time as they look when in a bra, supportive undergarments wouldn’t have been invented and the industry wouldn’t work so hard to make you want that perfect boob look. They look fine. You’re worrying too much about them. <3

And if anyone gives you grief for your “saggy” boobs, that person is toxic and not worth bothering with.
