NATURALLY BETTER HOMES

In the 1970s, many people became concerned about energy People has to face up to the fact that they used too much energy,and energy sources were not going to last forever One architect, Michael Reynolds, decided to do something He set out to

design homes that were cheaper to build and more energy-efficient In addition, he wanted to do something about all the

garbage Finally, he came up with the idea of “earthships.”

Although it sounds like a boat, an earthship is a house However, unlike regular houses, earthships are constructed fromgarbage and are built using only ten percent of the energy needed to build a typical house Moreover, after they are built,earthships use only ten percent of the energy required to heat, light, and cool a regular home Although earthships soundunique, they can actually be built to look just like any other house

One of the big benefits of earthships is that they are made from recycled materials The main construction material of anearthship is used tyres that are filled with dirt The dirt-filled tyres are then laid flat and stacked like bricks Because the tyresare round, there is lots of extra space between the columns of tyres These spaces are filled with used cardboard The tyresand cardboard form the outside walls of an earthship The inside walls between rooms in the earthship do not need to be asstrong as the outside walls; therefore, the inside walls are made with old cans, bottles, and cement that are eventually coveredand painted to look just like walls in a typical home

Another benefit of an earthship is that it saves energy and natural resources For example, an earthship uses less water Rainwater, which is collected on the roof, is used for drinking and bathing Furthermore, earthships need much less energy forheating and cooling because they are built into the ground, which keeps the temperature inside the house from getting too hot

or too cold In the long run, this helps earthship owners lower their utility bills As well, one wall of an earthship usually

faces south Therefore, solar heat helps to warm the house, and solar panels built on the roof generate electricity to runappliances in the house

All of these features make earthships very environmentally friendly That’s one of the reasons they have become popular

throughout the world Earthships have been built in Bolivia, Australia, Mexico, Japan, Canada, England, Scotland, and allover the US Maybe in the near future, an earthship will be landing near you!

THE ZONE

According to sports psychologists, outstanding athletes sometimes experience a unique state of consciousness while playing,

known as being 'in the zone' One soccer player described it as an amazing moment when body, mind, and technical skill

merge into one, and all feeling of limitation fades away This moment is often accompanied by strong intuition: knowingwhat will happen next and that whatever play is made will be successful Since being in the zone is associated with peakperformance, it is a much sought after state

In-depth studies of athletes who have undergone this remarkable experience indicate that it is characterized by intenseconcentration and a sense of mind and body in perfect harmony Some athletes describe an impression of time slowing down.Others report a loss of self-consciousness and of movement becoming effortless Contemporary research has identified three

key requirements for entering the zone: advanced technical skill, devotion to the sport, and the ability to immerse oneself

completely in the task at hand - hitting a perfect serve in tennis, for example The research suggests that when an athlete isperforming normally, there is conscious mental activity in the left hemisphere of the brain As the athlete enters the zone, theright hemisphere is activated to a greater extent This parallel activity increases his ability to analyze situations calmly, thusenabling him to focus solely on executing the task Being utterly absorbed in the process, as opposed to the outcome, theathlete is immune to distractions like the shouts of spectators, and thus optimizes his chances of success

Sports psychologists also maintain that becoming process-oriented helps to keep a phenomenon called choking at bay This

sudden feeling of anxiety can occur when athletes are outcome-oriented The athlete becomes distracted by the fear of failure,such as not scoring a much-needed goal This has an adverse effect on performance, transforming expert players into clumsy

amateurs Traditionally, honing physical skills has taken piority in training, but in light of this research, the emphasis may

now shift to training of the mind
