Greens for Early Winter
I've got a small planting of mache growing in one of the garden beds. I started this in early September, and hope it will get of sufficient size before winter really sets in so I can have some greens this December and maybe January.

I got tired of looking at the clowns in their car . . .
. . . (and giving them space in my head) . . . so here's a photo from a ReUse Action demolition in South Buffalo last month.
NYS Labor Department Says: Buffalo ReUse Created A “Hostile Work Environment”; Hayes “Forced Out Of His Job By A Hostile Board Of Directors”
On May 6, I quit working at Buffalo ReUse, the community organization I co-founded with Michael Gainer in 2006, because I could no longer tolerate the abuse and hostility from certain Board members, namely Alison Mueller and Franklin Redd, and the complete lack of a positive response when I asked the Board President, Vince Kuntz, to help me resolve the problem. I was denied unemployment benefits because of a “voluntary quit”. I appealed that determination and finally, after much drama, was granted benefits this week by an Administrative Law Judge.
Calling All Buffalo ReUse Members
Buffalo ReUse Revoked My Membership
They sent me this letter, paying $15.55 of Buffalo ReUse's extremely scarce money to send it Express Mail Proof of Delivery. Here it is, bad grammar and all, click on it to read:
They didn't even ask me for anything, despite their complaint (number 1 of 1, no less!), just revoked my membership. When you gear up like this, and spend real money to mail it, at least ask for something.
Honestly, it's a glaring example of poorly executed personal spite masquerading as "grown up big business" behavior. The DA and AG will file it in the "bullshit crazy stupid people" file.
The Sun, in STEREO
I’m a sucker for space images of globes. Somewhere on one or another computer I have a collection – the moon, Earth, Callisto, the Sun.
Here’s a snapshot from a moving image (in stereo – two satellites) of our Sun. Follow the link for links to movies of a “Coronal Mass Ejection” with waves moving around the Sun’s surface.
