Phase out US nuclear plants, Fukushima

Submitted by Oldroser on Sat, 05/04/2013 - 20:37.

 I read here that the massive disaster at Fukushima was because the operator was too cheap to keep up needed repairs, and now has no incentive to clean up the disaster. www.washingtonsblog.com/cat/sciencetechnology

What good is community approval when what was approved gets changed?

Submitted by Oldroser on Tue, 03/05/2013 - 00:59.

 Last year, Councilman Cimperman insisted that ODOT not proceed any further with plans for the Innerbelt Bridge until there was a community- wide meeting for us to consider and approve plans. The plans had previously been approved only by "stakeholders," which were composed of large corporations, no small companies included.

I have always been irritated that I am not considered a stakeholder, even though the bridge is in my front yard.

Is nothing made in US free from GMO?

Submitted by Oldroser on Wed, 02/20/2013 - 01:00.

 If this article is to be believed, very little. Unfortunately, it probably is at least mostly correct.

Luckily they don't have it here, as far as I can tell, in fact much that isn't listed as organic is still really organic per local articlles, and I cook and bake mostly from scratch. I bake much too large a batch for me and share with my neighbors. A young Texas systems engineer neighbor says he can tell.

The fantastically beautiful Jacaranda tree

Submitted by Oldroser on Mon, 02/18/2013 - 16:41.

 At the Central Park the other day, I was struck by the beauty of one of the many trees in blow (roses are blooming also.) When I asked, I was told that it was the Jacaranda tree and more will be in bloom Holy Week.

Not having had my camera with me, I found this image of it online.  Please click on the link to see it. 

Flowers everywhere

Submitted by Oldroser on Mon, 02/11/2013 - 01:13.

 I wish I had had my camera the other day. I saw white flowers intermingled with the other colors cascading over a wall when Brody and I walked to the next little town. Almost all the walls are like this.

This is on the road to Guatemala City,

Typical street, see the cobblestones.

Cartoon of my wonderful neighbors and I

Submitted by Oldroser on Mon, 02/11/2013 - 00:45.

 After helping me translate with the carpenter who built the bench and ordering more, we walked a good ways and encountered a street artist doing cartoons.

So I ordered one of the three of us and had it framed.

Brenda says she is not that short.

It really doesn't show Angel's curls well.

But it sure shows I have the Hinkle jowls!

Citi refused to accept mortgage payments, scheduled auction BUT

Submitted by Oldroser on Fri, 06/22/2012 - 00:08.

The woman's activist son had been helping others fight to keep their homes, possibly the bank was retaliating, the auction was scheduled even though she'd been told an executive would work with her, but the community rallied behind her; and lo and behold, they changed their mind. Even worked out new payment arrangement so she pays less.

Iranian ship saves American lives, their freighter attacked by pirates

Submitted by Oldroser on Tue, 06/05/2012 - 09:36.

SF Gate, home of the San Francisco Chronicle, May 23, 2012: The Iranian Navy is said to have rescued the U.S.-flagged US-flagged Maersk Texas, which was beseigned by several pirate ships in the GUlf of Oman, coming to its rescue after hearing its distress signal. The pirates fled as soon as they saw the warship appear.

The Maersk's corporate offices, however, denied it, saying the Iranian Navy was the first to respond after sending the distress signal but weren't helped by them, instead Iran's navy provided guidance to the crew of the Maersk Texas by radio.

Important upcoming ODOT meetings! NOT listed in TWDC Newsletter

Submitted by Oldroser on Tue, 06/05/2012 - 01:31.
I had been told in a email that at the meeting THIS WEDNESDAY, June 6, at Sokolowski’s (no time given, but they have been starting at 5:30 p.m.) ODOT and their design consultant would meet with the local community to discuss streetscape options along 14th Street and Abbey Avenue. One idea under consideration is the use of excess right-of-way (excess???, are they giving up on the parking lot, which shows future parking taking even more space as per last meeting that discussed this) as a community garden or urban orchard.

Owner of new Tremont beauty shop gives Oldroser a gorgeous rose

Submitted by Oldroser on Mon, 10/24/2011 - 03:10.

A new beauty shop has opened in Tremont, at W. 10th & Literary. I was walking my dogs along the Literary side of its building where there is a large yard with three gorgeous red rose bushes bearing buds. I was trying to decide which was the most beautiful when the owner, Kelly, came out and asked if I would like a rose.

Well, yes! And so Oldroser, who has given away over forty rose bouquets this year, was herself given a fantastically beautiful rose.
