Mojourner Truth: Cavalier Attitudes Redux
http://mojourner.blogspot.com/2014/12/cavalier-attitudes-redux.html
Does the word that just popped into your head show up here? 07 December, 2014. A few days ago, I posted about the cavalier attitude towards rape at UVA frats and their breathern elsewhere. I was among the thousands of bloggers and hundreds of news media outlets that picked up on the story. Now, it turns out that the Rolling Stone. Article that triggered the uproar itself took a cavalier attitude with the truth and verification. By reporters at the Washington Post. Nonetheless, fratboys and their supporte...

Enough for a good start | The Plum Palate
https://theplumpalate.com/2015/01/05/enough-for-a-good-start
Enough for a good start. January 5, 2015. An assignment took me out to the peninsula a few days ago. I drove up early in the morning all along the bay up 101. In a blurry photo I snapped through the passenger window, the water, the hills, and the sky form a backdrop, bare trees the foreground. (I always wish I knew the trees better. Are these alders? I’ve driven north this way on several occasions but never stopped at Hama Hama Seafood. Her mushroom strata waits in the refrigerator for us to bake tonight...

Urban Greenstead: June 15
http://urbangreenstead.blogspot.com/2015/06/june-15.html
Trying to leave 0.23 acres of Cascadia better than I found it. Tuesday, June 16, 2015. Yesterday, I planted a bunch of Hawaiian tomato seedlings (and one spindly yellow pear tomato) in the garden south beds. One line and one ring. For whatever reason, most of them had purple on the undersides of the leaves. Pot growers would rejoice, but I find myself wondering what's wrong. Also yesterday, I harvested the pak choi and began kim chi with it. Poppies have flower buds, and cilantro is flowering. Spent more...

Urban Greenstead: May 2015
http://urbangreenstead.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Trying to leave 0.23 acres of Cascadia better than I found it. Sunday, May 10, 2015. One result of all that was: four tomatoes, two stevia, two tarragon, an amaranth, four geraniums, one scarlet begonia, two blue fescue,.and maybe other stuff I forgot. The farmer got a little, and the school got some. A good day. So today I planted most everything. One exception is a yellow pear tomato that will probably end up as a potted plant, and one fescue sent to Nancy to be a potted plant at her place. Pretty much...

Urban Greenstead: September 2013
http://urbangreenstead.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Trying to leave 0.23 acres of Cascadia better than I found it. Wednesday, September 11, 2013. Alliums, Yummy Allies. Gene, holding Shallots. Real life has once again intervened with posting here, and all I have is old news. Of the 2013 Summer. But the scallions did. Get ginormous and the shallits [yes, I'm doing the Lewis-and-Clark thing of spelling a word diffrintly all-the-damn Time] grew fast and strong. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Here are some other blogs.

Urban Greenstead: December 2013
http://urbangreenstead.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Trying to leave 0.23 acres of Cascadia better than I found it. Saturday, December 7, 2013. Foment a Ferment, the Lazy Cider-Punk's Guide. Bubble bubble, no toil, no trouble. For years, I've wanted to make hard cider, but never have enough apples at once for it to be worthwhile. I always give the tree's owner a good share, and maybe some to friends and neighbors, but basically the girls and I drink it as fast as we make it. Despite a particularly generous neighbor this year, it was the same story. Being s...

Mojourner Truth: NPR Edited my 15 Seconds of Fame
http://mojourner.blogspot.com/2013/03/npr-edited-my-15-seconds-of-fame.html
Does the word that just popped into your head show up here? 07 March, 2013. NPR Edited my 15 Seconds of Fame. You edit me, I'll edit you. Irked by an All Things Considered. Story touting a new record on the stock market, I posted about the Dow Jones Industrial Average and it's faults. NPR, of course, fell in line and had their Planet Money guy do a related story the next day. So I wrote 'em a letter, congratulating them on the second story and calling them to task on the first. Or actually, just blah....

Mojourner Truth: The Hipster Effect and other Models
http://mojourner.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-hipster-effect-and-other-models.html
Does the word that just popped into your head show up here? 11 November, 2014. The Hipster Effect and other Models. Image by Getty, Fair Use by This Guy's Nephew. A mathematician recently posted an article ( available at arXiv. This guy read the Hipster Effect article before I did, and was already appearing in blogposts about it days ago. And yet, I exhibit signs of being a hipster. I'm in phase with them as far as clunky black glasses, facial hair, brewing ale with hops I grew, and so on. As I w...Were ...

Mojourner Truth: Guns at the Capitol
http://mojourner.blogspot.com/2015/02/guns-at-capitol.html
Does the word that just popped into your head show up here? 08 February, 2015. Guns at the Capitol. Some guy from Alabama running his mouth on the Washington State Capitol steps. This past Saturday, our local paper reports. And it really pisses off a few people. Maybe the dude in the colonial outfit worries he'll be deemed as crazy as he looks. Maybe the guys covered head to foot in "tactical" paramilitary costumes genuinely believe that a background check is tantamount to tyranny. But of course, it wasn...

Mojourner Truth: Something in the Air (KAOS)
http://mojourner.blogspot.com/2012/04/something-in-air-kaos.html
Does the word that just popped into your head show up here? 16 April, 2012. Something in the Air (KAOS). It's that time again. After months of soggy-slumber lumbering through the dark, the days are long,. Procession of the Species is nearly here,. And plants are pumping out blooms and pollen, putting Spring in the air. You listen. You know no other station will carry this much commercial-free broadcasting, this much world music, this much native programming. But do you contribute? The KAOSticians on and ...
