Homeschooling Myths, Realities, and Resources
by Samantha Biggers

During COVID, almost all kids were homeschooled. After trying it out, a lot of parents decided not to send their kids back to public or even private schools. With many parents still working from home and sometimes setting more of their schedule, homeschooling is a more realistic possibility for many families than it once was.

The Challenges New Farmers and Homesteaders Face
by Samantha Biggers

Recently, a reader suggested that I write an article on the challenges for new farmers to help those just getting started. I agree that it is an important topic. There are a lot of things that I wish I had known as my husband and I started clearing our land and farming while building a house at the same time.  Since I can only fit so much in a single article, I hope that fellow members of the PP tribe will chime in with their tips in the comments section.

One of the wonders of technology in this Information Age is that it allows for economies of scale that have never been possible before. It allows for Big Tech companies like Google, Facebook and Apple to scale up to serve billions of people.

But there is a dark side to technology as well.

Using A Grid Tied Solar System When The Grid Is Down
by Samantha Biggers

Many people have taken advantage of programs that make putting solar panels on their homes and tying to the grid very affordable. Unfortunately, these types of solar systems provide no backup power if the actual power grid is down. The main advantage to homeowners is that their power bill is significantly reduced or even eliminated. The power is fed back into the grid, but no battery backup system at home can be utilized if the main power grid fails.

The Politics (and Evolutionary Basis) of Fear
 PREVIEW

Fear is being used to advance a set of political and corporate agendas.  Sound ‘out there?’  It’s really one of the oldest political maxims stretching back to ancient Greek times and used extensively and with increasing effectiveness ever since.

Vaccines Offer Better Outcomes…
by Chris Martenson
The very best immunity is natural immunity.  That comes to us from Israeli data which is complete enough to draw real conclusions from.  The vaccines offer varying degrees of protection from hospitalization and death that are much improved as compared to the unvaccinated in the over 50 crowd.  Under 50?  The data is less clear but the good news is that there really aren’t any hospitalizations or deaths involved.  The numbers are so small as to be best rounded down to zero.
