1080 and threatening babies « A Bee of a Certain Age
https://beefaerie.wordpress.com/2015/03/11/1080-and-threatening-babies
A Bee of a Certain Age. 1080 and threatening babies. When I was campaigning, I came across a few people who opposed the use of 1080 poison. Their reasons varied: some thought that possums were darling creatures who did no harm, others wanted their dogs to be safe in the bush, still others argued that the bush fell silent after 1080 drops. They all wanted to know what I thought about using 1080 to control possums and other introduced pests. More than that, I’m sad and angry for the parents who are t...

Mother’s Day, 2015 « A Bee of a Certain Age
https://beefaerie.wordpress.com/2015/05/10/mothers-day-2015
A Bee of a Certain Age. Mother’s Day, 2015. I was on Radio NZ Nights a week or two ago, talking feminism and motherhood. You can listen to the podcast here: RNZ Nights – Feminism and Motherhood. But there is so much feminist stuff to say about motherhood. Then there’s all the issues around childcare and housework. Women still seem to end up doing far more of these everyday tasks, even when both parents are working. Marama Davidson puts it well. When all mothers are truly valued as integral and essential ...

What Meaning generally is about artsy stuff (pictures, music, writing, film/tv, thoughts) which means! To me, though it may mean? To you. What Meaning is also the home of Draic, who generally means well and specifically means me. Thursday, September 22, 2005. I want to help ideas come to fruition, to live and to reach people. I want to connect people with the information they need, the skills they need, the people, the opportunities. Or to do it myself. I want to connect, and to make whole. This evening ...

Written as a reaction to "Rude Food" by Alan Saunders, a reflection on restaurant critics published in the book "Critical Perspectives"). I find it strange, Saunders' emphasis on the restaurant as the 'artwork' rather than the food. Saunders mentions the...

Shooting at Virginia Tech - The view from my window
http://satsumasalad.livejournal.com/143620.html
The view from my window. Fishing, infertility, diabetes - not necessarily in that order. Shooting at Virginia Tech. The shooting at Virginia Tech has had me thinking all day. Bad things happen, resident staff can be in danger, and of all those people full of promise and potential who died today, I can't help but think about the residential assistant and his friends and family. 19th-Apr-2007 06:02 am (UTC). 20th-Apr-2007 03:02 am (UTC). There are all sorts of things you don't know about me :).
