Pizza could be made with fresh produce and sourdough crust
By Hicbd
"In 1985, we started serving pizza to our customers after regular hours on Friday nights. The idea was that we would make one type of vegetarian pizza each night, using fresh ingredients, unusual cheeses from the Cheese Board, all on top of a thin, sourdough crust."

Front row concert tickets could be given to random fans
By Hicbd
"Joel then explained his genius way of making sure the front of the arena was always full, and others could follow suit. He added: 'We now hold those tickets, and I send my road crew out to the back of the room when the audience comes in and they get people from the worst seats and bring ’em in to the front rows. This way you’ve got people in the front row that are really happy to be there, real fans.'"

Prison sentences could not be capped for those dangerous to society
By Hicbd
"Brazilian law, however, only allows for a maximum of 30 years spent in prison for his first convictions and in the end, he only served an additional four years for the murders he carried out in prison for a total of 34 years. In 2007, he became a free man."

A national vote / pledge for service could be required before war
By Hicbd
"In 1916, with World War I looming for the United States, a group of Nebraska residents gathered petition signatures and sent a constitutional amendment to Congress that would have enacted a national referendum before lawmakers could declare war. On top of the national vote, anyone who cast a ballot in favor of war would have been required to register as a volunteer for service in the United States Army."

Smartphones / tablets could not be allowed in schools
By Hicbd
"Sexting. Cyberbullying. Googling test answers. Taking a picture of a quiz and sending it to friends who have the same class later in the day. Paying more attention to Instagram notifications than biology class. Smartphones have transformed the way we communicate, but there’s no question they can be a major headache for teachers and administrators. That’s why a flurry of schools have recently put in place restrictions or bans on students’ use of cellphones in school."

Parenting could be learned from reality TV
By Hicbd
"Here’s the gist: two hosts gather 12 sets of diverse parents with a wide-range of (and often conflicting) parenting styles (more on that in a minute). Each family is given a challenge that is pre-taped, and then all the parents sit on a bunch of couches in a TV studio and basically praise or criticize each other...The Parent Test claims its intentions are good, and that they’re merely on a mission to figure out which way is the right way to parent, and what parenting style works best."

Vending machines / ATMs could sell processed, safe milk / foods from small farmers
By Hicbd
"We are rebuilding the informal dairy value chain by providing a mobile accounting application to informal dairy traders, then purchasing their milk. After we process the milk, we sell it through a network of milk dispensing machines called milk ATMs, which we install in shops in urban and peri-urban centers in Kenya. By building efficiencies in the value chain, we are able to capture large margins while helping customers access high-quality, safe milk at 40% cheaper than alternatives and giving farmers almost twice the value for their milk than any other dairy buying organization."

"Roadside food drying is still practiced in much of the world. Farmers and food vendors use the heat and flatness of the street to dry everything from grain crops like corn and wheat to seafood to fruit. But this method leaves food vulnerable to contamination from mold, air pollutants, insects and more. Globally, more than a third of food is lost to post-harvest contamination...Klein Ileleji has developed two technologies for drying food quickly and hygienically. The first is the Dehytray, a food dehydration tray with a protective cover that concentrates solar energy for faster drying times. The second is the Dehymeleon, a solar dryer that can hold 10 Dehytrays, and that can store extra solar energy for use as a power generator at night."
