I'm thinking that out here on the left end of Terminal City it's World Water Day, another self-appointed day of reckoning for an issue more pressing than one in three sixty five can possibly accommodate. Somewhat obligingly, water leaks from…

PS: RAVEN (sponsor) is a group challenging the Tar Sands in court. It has the backing of a large UK cooperative. They are sending lawyers to work for free for a few weeks at a time. It's awesome! They take donations, and they also sell funny t-shirts. They are also…

Seems early, but yes, if you want to grow tomatoes from seed it's time to start. Dunbar Transition Village is sponsoring a Tomato Workshop on Thursday March 17th at St. Philips Church 3737 West 27th Ave. 7 - 8:30 pm Cost is $20.

In a year likely to have two, if not three, elections and thus replacing ALL levels of government, do you wonder why no one is talking about real issues like climate change, peak oil, or growing public and private debt?  It is time to quietly assert what is truly important, and vote your conscience.  At the same time, we shall walk the talk within the Transition movement and set an…

Wow, it feels early to be doing seed starts and apparently it isn't, so Peter and I have planted our first batch of 24 pots, 4 seeds in each.  Some will go toward the Cedar Cottage spring fling event, some for our gardens.

My method:  clean/wash the reusable plastic pots (the square kind work best), use purchased seed starter mix (took out the big lumps of wood chips), fill the pots with soil up to 1/4 inch from top, compress gently so particles meet, spray the top with…

Jackson Katz argues that widespread violence in American society, including the tragic school shootings in Littleton, Colorado, Jonesboro, Arkansas, and elsewhere, needs to be understood as part of an ongoing crisis in masculinity.
