Occupy Cleveland is maintaining a presence in Public Square through these cold winter days -

People are very complex, and we all don't think alike or see things the same way.   It is always a challenge to try to understand the messages other people  are sending our way.   Sometimes it is difficult.  Sometimes we need  to separate the message from the messenger.  It is all confusing.

I have received enough calls and emails on this within the last few weeks to A.) cause concern and B.) merit a post.People are having difficulty withdrawing cash from banks. I just received the SECOND call on this from California this week. The question is, do banks have the right to deny you cash withdrawals? The answer is NO. They do not. And both of the men I have heard from in California were obviously being bee-essed by their bank. The bank couldn’t cite statute, and then started haggling over the amount of cash withdrawals they would allow.

Have you seen this kind of amile in Cleveland lately?

Must be the water.

Cutting glass is an exercise in preparation. 

First you need a flat table surface which has rug, resilient rubber, or other soft surface on it.

Second, the glass surface needs to be  clean.  Very clean.  Especially if you are attempting to cut old glass - make sure that the surface has no paint, grit, etc. on it.   Dirty glass and your cut will likely fail.

Anyway, the only way we in Bonaire are able to produce pottery and export it to Venezuela is because there are no government regulation in Venezuala and no taxes on the 1% there. 

So, of course, there are lots of jobs in Venezuela and those jobs actually move offshore to the Dutch West Indies.

Crazy, isn't it, how trickle up works?  

How is it that the NEORSD or any public entity can "write off" bad debt?

It's not easy to go out on a snowy night in Cleveland, but if you make the effort there is magic to be had:

Why is our government doing this ? , I suggest we do the same , they know something we don't.....................

As I have been looking back through a hard drive for images for a story, it dawned on me that perhaps there could be a popular appetite for taking a virtual vacation - not to carouse, but to get educated and to gain a bit of vitamin D from exposure to something other than neo. 

Less than a decade ago we refered to "home telephone", "work telephone", "public telephone' - these descriptions are pretty much history. 

Instead of a phone being in a "place" where you go to use it, our bodies are now the "place" for phones.

A recent study, linked here, demonstrates that  heart attacks dramatically increase with grief.  Besides grief- for example caused by the death of a loved one- other emotions like anger, depression, and anxiety also dramatically increase the risk of heart attack.

The public testimony of the Ohio EPA hearing held at Estabrook included exhaustive research by Claude Cornett.  This testimony is available here:

Other comments submitted for the record will be updated to this site once the Ohio EPA mails the testimony to me.
