Art show alert!
Upheaval is a consistent occurrence in the most stable and established natural systems. Knowing this, what contingencies must we create? How can perceptual work attempt to resolve the various unknowns? As the old saying goes, 'there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing!'

Survival Tip# 45B15.452 -7 (Tongs)
Tongs are used to pick up hot rocks when you are rock boiling, to pick up coals for coal burning, and to move hot food items in and out of the fire.
To make a pair of tongs:
Cut a straight branch twenty inches in length and ½ inch in diameter. Live, bendable wood is best.
In the middle of the branch, shave a four inch section on one side thin enough so that you can bend the stick in half fully without breaking. The shaved section acts as a spring holding the tongs in the open position. To aid in the bending process, submerge the shaved section in hot water or steam, then bend it slowly over a round 1 inch diameter form or stick.
Once the stick is bent, tie one arm to the other while the tongs are opened about three or four inches.
Use tongs frequently and practically with great joy and fervor!
