Mutsu apple harvest today

i've been watching the apples on the mutsu and when i saw a squirrel had started in on one of them i decided i better harvest today....i ate the one the squirrel had started and once again..."i love this apple!!!" so i have 9 or so left and will savor them over the next few days......

the past couple days in the garden.....

such a beautiful fall.....cleaned the roof and gleaned several buckets of needles to the side yard trail....mike's recent load from his fall clean up had a beautiful bouquet....so wondraful....mike lived across the street (several years ago) and when he was preparing to burn a big pile one day i went and asked if, instead, i could have his waste. he was very agreeable and asked if i wanted his lawn clippings as well. it was a win-win.....then he moved away...after he was gone a couple of years he came back to see if i still wanted yard waste. now he delivers when he has a truck load and dumps it in my compost area. it's still a win-win!!!!!!!

bring back the good republicans....i grew up in a republican household....we liked Ike....i was 5yo and 13yo when he made these speeches.

Chance for Peace (April 16, 1953)
Dwight David Eisenhower
Eisenhower gives this speech before the American Society for Newspaper Editors, shortly after the death of Joseph Stalin. It is also known as the "Cross of Iron" speech. The President contrasts the Soviet Union's post-World War II doctrine as one of force, while the United States pursued peace and cooperation in the world. He notes that the belligerence of the Soviet Union brought free nations together to avoid atomic war, and he challenges the new Soviet leadership to reject Stalin's style of governance.
full transcript and audio here

Farewell Address (January 17, 1961)
Dwight David Eisenhower
Eisenhower again calls for peace, but, acknowledging that new crises arise, cautions the United States to maintain balance in its relations. He also also warns against the rising power of the military-industrial complex that could threaten the democratic process.

George Allen introduces Macaca



After stealing Dick Durbin's legislation by changing one word, Sen. George Allen (R-VA) now says he never heard the word Macaca before. Not surprisingly, his mother is French Tunisian, where the word is used as a racial slur. Why is no one is giving Allen credit for being able to speak French?

CC from Alaska......

stream her live starting at 4PM our time

CC
Monday - Friday: 3:00 PM - 6:00
PM

CC is an award-winning radio broadcaster with 20 years of experience
here in Anchorage. Back in 1987, CC worked with the Pacific Rim Broadcasting Network to help pioneer talk radio in Alaska on KENI AM and KENI FM. CC hosted the mid-day show on 100.5 The Fox from its inception in 1989 until 1997. She was featured on "We Alaskans" in April of 1991 as the "most listened-to DJ in the state," and later that year was awarded the National Broadcasters Association Marconi Award for best Radio Personality in a medium size market.
From 1998 to 2001, CC hosted “Morning Line” on 90.3 KNBA and loved her time in public radio. In addition to her work in radio, CC is the owner/operator of Professional Production Concepts, which offers MC/Auctioneer/DJ services and fundraising consultation to the non-profit community here in Anchorage. She is also owner/operator of Healing Hearts Cards, designing and marketing specialty greeting cards that address grief, loss and transition. CC returned to the talk radio airwaves in January 2007 as host of “Cutting Edge,” which airs weekdays from 3:00 – 6:00 here on Newstalk 1080 KUDO Alaska’s Progressive Voice.

Here’s what CC says about her show, “Cutting Edge”: "There’s no doubt
that my style is quite different from your typical AM talk show host. I prefer conversations to shouting matches. I believe that healthy discourse trumps
dogmatic monologue, sound-byte talking points, and sensationalism. Cutting Edge listeners are progressive, open-minded people who are educated, intelligent and passionate. Cutting Edge is a partnership between myself, the guests and the listeners – together we are attempting to understand the complex issues that affect our lives, and to identify proactive solutions to which we can all contribute.”

Conservative Financial Follies

The Politics
We are witnessing the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.Wall Street’s “shadow banking system” has been revealed to be a house of cards. Former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan is calling it a “once-in-a-century” financial crisis. Who is responsible? Who should be held accountable? What is the real solution to this crisis?

The Facts
Wall Street’s binge is over; now come the migraines. Lehman Brothers,
one of the largest investment banks in the world, just declared bankruptcy.
Yesterday, Merrill Lynch agreed to sell itself at a fire-sale price to Bank of
America. Last week, mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were taken over by the Treasury Department, and the insurance giant American International Group is teetering on the verge of bankruptcy. Banks across the nation, holding billions in toxic loans, are in trouble. [Wall Street Journal]
The debacle is the direct result of conservative misrule. To increase profits, finance companies sold subprime and nontraditional mortgages to millions of Americans who—the companies knew—could not afford to make the payments. The brokers didn’t care; before the mortgages could become a problem, they sold the loans to investment houses that repackaged them into exotic securities and marketed them around the world. Now the entire financial system is reeling since no one knows what the toxic loans
are worth. These follies were made possible when:
Banking deregulation allowed the growth of a totally unregulated shadow banking system that borrowed heavily while inventing exotic securities to hide the value of underlying assets.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which could have halted the sale of the worst of these loans by designating them “unfair and deceptive practices,” refused to do so. [Center for Responsible Lending]
The Federal Reserve Board failed to regulate subprime and exotic mortgage loans, although it had the power to do so. [New York Times]
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development allowed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to purchase large numbers of subprime loans. [Washington Post]
The banks went on a binge; the cops on the street turned a blind eye. The bankers pocketed billions until the housing bubble burst. Americans are now paying dearly for the conservative folly. Across the nation, home values have dropped 16 percent over 12 months, the largest one-year decline on record. [New York Times] Almost one-third of U.S. homeowners who bought in the last five years now owe more on their mortgages than their properties are worth. [Bloomberg] Homeowners without mortgage problems find themselves surrounded by boarded-up foreclosed houses. And taxpayers will ultimately have to pay hundreds of billions for all the recent government banking bailouts. [U.S. News]

CONVENTION DISPATCH: The Rise of the Democratic
Wing of the Democratic Party (8:12 am)
Yesterday morning during a CNN discussion from the floor of the Democratic convention in Denver, I told anchor John Roberts that despite the personality tiff between the Obama and Clinton people, and despite some blemishes on Joe Biden’s record, one thing is undebatable: The progressive wing of the Democratic Party - the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party, as Paul Wellstone famously called it - has finally defeated the corporate wing of the party.

Stephanie Miller had me laughing out loud today when discussing possible VP selection by the rethugs with Jason Alexander ……her conclusion…”all I know is they’ll have to get the jaws of life to pry Joe Lieberman’s tongue out of John McSame’s ear.”

remembering Kathy

I had the pleasure of her company during the last few years of her life. When she first came to us, she was ambulatory. She had end stage kidney disease and required dialysis and progressively became less abled. When I last saw her she required assistance to transfer from her bed to a wheelchair. She was a high maintenance gal and kept staff dancing to meet her needs. She knew how to be sweet but often chose a demanding entitled tone.

I displeased her one night, early in our relationship, and she insulted me so nicely she won my heart. She felt my blood pressure aquisition skills were lacking. After refusing to allow me to repeat the reading she stated sweetly, "dear, i don't mean to be unkind, but you really should get a breath mint."

President Gore says tax what we burn, not what we earn

we are challenged to break our addiction to the disasterous carbon based fuels and save our planet for future generations. if we actually add the real cost to the extraction and burning of fossil fuels suddenly solar, wind and geothermal begin to look like a real bargain. and the new infrastructure we will create will mean good jobs for humans. blowing the tops off the world's second most diverse forest on the planet, 2nd only to the tropical rain forest, is an ongoing environmental disaster. and that's before the coal is even burned. killing and dying so the corporatists can secure the oil in countries where other humans are trying to live is bankrupting our nation in every way.
thank you President Gore for once again asking us to do the right thing......

LIVES IN THE BALANCE

I've been waiting for something to happen
For a week or a month or a year
With the blood in the ink of the headlines
And the sound of the crowd in my ear
You might ask what it takes to remember
When you know that you've seen it before
Where a government lies to a people
And a country is drifting to war

And there's a shadow on the faces
Of the men who send the guns
To the wars that are fought in places
Where their business interest runs

On the radio talk shows and the T.V.
You hear one thing again and again
How the U.S.A. stands for freedom
And we come to the aid of a friend
But who are the ones that we call our friends--
These governments killing their own?
Or the people who finally can't take any more
And they pick up a gun or a brick or a stone
There are lives in the balance
There are people under fire
There are children at the cannons
And there is blood on the wire

There's a shadow on the faces
Of the men who fan the flames
Of the wars that are fought in places
Where we can't even say the names

They sell us the President the same way
They sell us our clothes and our cars
They sell us every thing from youth to religion
The same time they sell us our wars
I want to know who the men in the shadows are
I want to hear somebody asking them why
They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are
But they're never the ones to fight or to die
And there are lives in the balance
There are people under fire
There are children at the cannons
And there is blood on the wire

another version.....



and this version still says it !! ENOUGH!!!!!!

President Gore

we need real leadership to save the planet for those who come after and time is running out. he suggests we "tax what we burn, not what we earn." he challenges us to stop the broken system that favors the greedy special interests who are taking us full speed ahead to the destruction of the planet as they enrich themselves as never before. i hope we will be able stop them and do the right thing.

cool story

Edith Macefield, 1921-2008: Ballard woman held her ground as change closed in around her
By KATHY MULADYP-I REPORTER
Edith Macefield died at home, just the way she wanted.
Read the P-I's original story about Edith Macefield
The Ballard woman who captured hearts and admirers around the world when she stubbornly turned down $1 million to sell her home to make way for a commercial development died Sunday of pancreatic cancer. She was 86.
"I don't want to move. I don't need the money. Money doesn't mean anything," she told the Seattle P-I in October.
She continued living in the little old house in the 1400 block of Northwest 46th Street even after concrete walls rose around her, coming within a few feet of her kitchen window. Cranes towered over her roof. Macefield turned up the television or her favorite opera music a little louder and stayed put.
"I went through World War II, the noise doesn't bother me," she said in October. "They'll get it done someday."
Macefield's stubbornness was cheered by Ballard residents tired of watching the blue-collar neighborhood disappear under condominiums and trendy restaurants. Her story was picked up by the national news and spread around the world.
In the last year of her life, she forged an unlikely friendship with a kindred soul, Barry Martin, the senior superintendent on the construction project engulfing her home. They met when he started working at the site.
It started with an offer to drive her to the hairdresser, then a doctor's appointment. He made sure she had food, ran to get groceries for her, picked up prescriptions, cooked her dinner.
She had been ill off and on for the last year or so, recovering from a serious fall, and bouts of the flu. She was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in April.
During her last days, Martin said he made sure that she was comfortable at home.
"She got to do it the way she wanted to do it," Martin said. "She had already made up her mind, and that's the way it was going to be."
He still wonders what drew him to the cranky, stubborn woman who seemed to do all she could to discourage friends or visitors.
"I think we were a lot alike. I am stubborn and so was she. We had some incredible arguments," Martin said. "She was amazingly smart."
It's unclear what will happen now to the tiny two-bedroom, two-story house built in 1900. Macefield said she doesn't have any relatives. Her only child, a son, died of meningitis at 13.
Martin isn't holding out much hope for the old house. It leans seriously to one side, he said. "I straighten the pictures every time I come over," he said.
"Eventually it will all go to progress."
Macefield planned her burial, picked out a casket and made it clear she didn't want a funeral or fuss or flowers. People can donate to the Humane Society, she told Martin last week.
With her attention to detail, it seems likely Macefield left a will, but in respect for Macefield's privacy, Martin doesn't want to talk about it, and isn't saying where she will be buried.
When Macefield's story first ran in the P-I, her home was swarmed by news reporters from around the country trying to get her to open her front door. Word of her death brought another crush of cameras to the street in front of her house.
Her aged blue car is still parked in front of the house, her collection of glass animals still lined up on the windowsills.
People remembering her said they were inspired by her spirit and spunk; by her choice to live simply in her small home, the way she wanted.
Others suggested that the lot where her home stands could be turned into a small memorial park, a pocket of green among the concrete.
Her life story is as intriguing and curious as the sight of the concrete parking garage rising around her home.
Some wonder at her stories, hinting at being a spy during World War II and touring with some of the most famous big bands of the day. She talked about attending teas and dances, once finding herself in conversation with Adolf Hitler.
Her friends never doubted a word.
Macefield said she was born in Oregon, and raised in Seattle and New Orleans, by her mother and two doting godfathers who shared their talents with her. One was a writer, the other sang and danced, and taught her French. She later learned German and several other languages, she said.
Macefield's stubborn streak led her to join the service while still in high school. She told her mother she was going to college. The young woman was already in England when officials figured out she wasn't 18 and threw her out of the service, she said.
But in love, she remained in England where she cared for war orphans. She returned to the U.S. to care for her mother until she died. She worked at Washington Dental Services, when its office was on Market Street in Ballard.
She loved opera, national politics, writing and old movies. She adored animals, and could be seen almost every day standing outside her front yard tossing out seeds for the birds.
"Once she told me it felt as if she had lived three lifetimes," Martin said. "It is interesting that one person could do so many things, then come to Ballard and live so quietly."

Where the Rubber Meets the Road: Ecological Economics and Intensive Vegetable Cultivation
Posted by Nate Hagens on March 14, 2008
This is a guest post by Jason Bradford who has written here previously on"Relocalization: A Strategic Response to Peak Oil and Climate Change" and "Does Less Energy Mean More Farmers?". Jason has a Phd in Biology, is the founder of Willits Economic Localization (WELL) and runs a CSA in Willits, CA.
"Can we rely on it that a ‘turning around' will be accomplished by enough people quickly enough to save the modern world? This question is often asked, but whatever answer is given to it will mislead. The answer "yes" would lead to complacency; the answer "no" to despair. It is desirable to leave these perplexities behind us and get down to work." E.F. Schumacher, Small is Beautiful I would rather have titled this essay "Where the Hoe Meets the Soil" but that phrase is not part of our cultural lexicon, which is itself a symptom of the problem I am working to address.
Setting aside any prolonged discussion of whether or what about the modern world should be saved, this essay is primarily about what it means to "get down to work" as Schumacher puts it. But very quickly, to me saving the modern world means setting a goal for the human economy to be properly scaled relative to the global ecology, and maintaining a sufficiency of social stability necessary to manage a transition.

......Therefore, focus most attention on reducing energy demand rather than substituting a new energy supply. And finally, in the context of ecological economics, fossil fuel depletion and climate change, ask whether what you do in your life, vocation, hobbies, and habits, contributes to the long-term function (or dysfunction) of society.

...... If red meat and dairy production were reduced to only what harvested hay and pasture could provide, perhaps half of annual U.S. grain production could be eliminated. The acreage out of food production could be used for green manure crops to build soil and fix nitrogen. A 2004 Congressional Research Service report showed that fertilizers are the largest part of farm energy use, and that natural gas to produce nitrogen comprised 75-90% of the fertilizer input (Fig. 5).[xiii] Fixing nitrogen naturally, therefore, saves significant energy. Some of the vast cropland area no longer producing grains could then be used for appropriately scaled biofuels to power farm equipment instead of fossil fuels.
