Is Brooklyn Leading New York City Out of the Pandemic?
Manhattan has long anchored New York City’s economy, attracting workers and travelers from around the world to its vibrant commercial districts …
Manhattan has long anchored New York City’s economy, attracting workers and travelers from around the world to its vibrant commercial districts and renowned cultural institutions.
But during the worst of the coronavirus pandemic, Manhattan’s strengths became its undoing. Tourists and commuters disappeared from its bustling sidewalks. Two-thirds of New York City’s job losses were concentrated in the borough.
As Manhattan struggled, the other boroughs helped to pull the city out of its deep economic hole. And by some measures, Brooklyn has led the way.
By the end of 2020, Brooklyn’s share of the city’s private-sector jobs had increased the most of any borough during the pandemic, according to federal labor data. Of the New York City ZIP codes that had the biggest increase in new residents in the first year of the pandemic, eight of the top 10 were in Brooklyn. And last year, home prices in Brooklyn climbed to a record high.
“Like the rest of the city, Brooklyn is still hurting in many ways,” said Jonathan Bowles, executive director of the Center for an Urban Future, a research organization. “But looking forward, Brooklyn is arguably even better positioned for future growth than prior to the pandemic.”
Though Manhattan will always have an outsize importance in driving the city’s economy, the pandemic triggered seismic shifts in how New Yorkers worked, commuted and spent their money, testing the balance of power between Manhattan and the other boroughs.
After the initial months of the pandemic, small business activity in the boroughs outside Manhattan began to rebound much faster than in Manhattan, buoyed by neighborhoods where residents were less likely to have the wealth or the mobility to leave New York.
In the first year of the pandemic, higher-income neighborhoods in Manhattan, including the Upper West Side and Upper East Side, saw the biggest net loss in residents in the city, according to an analysis of postal data by the Partnership for New York City, a business advocacy group.
Brooklyn, meanwhile, was poised to benefit from the shutdown of Manhattan’s office districts. The borough, which has the largest share of college-educated residents outside of Manhattan, became a popular destination for Manhattan residents seeking bigger apartments. Commuters to Manhattan were now working and shopping closer to home, boosting local businesses.
Whether these shifts prove to be lasting — and whether larger employers will start to relocate to Brooklyn — is a key question. Manhattan is home to less than 20 percent of New York City’s residents but accounts for at least half of the city’s tax revenues, according to estimates provided by the New York State comptroller’s office. Even as Manhattan’s share of the city’s property and sales taxes dipped during the pandemic, economists say that business activity in the other boroughs is unlikely to overtake Manhattan any time soon.
But already, the new era of hybrid work has prompted some smaller employers to open offices in Brooklyn, which could have broad ripple effects for neighborhoods across the city’s most populous borough. Brooklyn added more than 230,000 new residents in the past decade, according to 2020 census data released last month, the fastest population growth of any borough.
During the pandemic, Josh Miller made more than a dozen new hires for his start-up, the Browser Company, which is seeking to create a new web browser. He noticed that most of his New York City employees lived in Brooklyn.
After polling his staff members, Mr. Miller decided to relocate his office from NoLIta in Lower Manhattan — which had been an easy area for him to meet with investors and other tech founders — to Brooklyn’s East Williamsburg neighborhood. The company, which has 23 employees, moved in July, and working from the office will not be mandatory.
“Brooklyn went from being an option you wouldn’t consider because of how inconvenient it was to the most convenient,” Mr. Miller said.
Economists say that the pandemic could accelerate a trend that started after the 2008 recession, when job growth in New York City began to be driven by the boroughs outside Manhattan. In the past decade, according to the New York State comptroller’s office, Brooklyn has been the biggest generator of new jobs in the city.
Sanzo, a company that makes sparkling water in Asian-inspired flavors, opened its first physical office this summer in a co-working space in Brooklyn’s Dumbo neighborhood, a popular destination for start-ups.
Alessandro Roco, who founded the company in 2019, said he was concerned about pandemic burnout for his eight employees and wanted to find an office in a neighborhood where they can “breathe a little,” without the stress of Manhattan’s hustle and bustle. Mr. Roco himself moved from Queens to Brooklyn during the pandemic, so his commute is now just a 12-minute bike ride.
“I was originally thinking we were going to open an office in Manhattan,” said Mr. Roco. “But when I even floated the idea of a potential place in Dumbo, you could see everyone’s eyes light up.”
Among small businesses that were operating before the pandemic, only 47 percent were open in Manhattan in July, compared with 67 percent in Brooklyn, according to data from Homebase, which provides scheduling and time-tracking software for businesses.
The contrast has been especially stark in service-sector businesses, such as restaurants and salons, which were the hardest hit by job losses. Employment at those businesses in Manhattan is still 15 percent lower than it was in February 2020, while it is up 10 percent in Brooklyn in the same period, according to data from Gusto, a payroll provider for small companies.
Although the shift to remote work has hurt Manhattan restaurants that relied on the post-work happy hour crowds, it has helped restaurants in residential neighborhoods like Negril BK, which serves Caribbean cuisine in Brooklyn’s Park Slope.
Before the pandemic, the restaurant, which had live music and a vibrant party atmosphere, was a destination for customers who tended to travel from farther away in Brooklyn and around the region to try its jerk chicken and rum cocktails.
The restaurant did not have a strong base of customers in the family-friendly neighborhood until the pandemic, when outdoor dining became an inviting way for locals to try the food, said Malissa Browne, a co-owner.
As Park Slope residents worked from home, Ms. Browne noticed a big increase in diners on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. At one point, the restaurant opened at 2 p.m., earlier than usual, to accommodate demand.
“When the neighborhood did give us a try, they loved it,” Ms. Browne said. “They turned into repeat clients.”
Still, the growth of the city’s economy beyond Manhattan is impeded in part by infrastructure.
There is limited office space outside Manhattan, hindering larger companies from filling workplaces across the boroughs. And the city’s commuter rail system revolves around shuttling people in and out of the heart of Manhattan, making it less convenient for an employee living in New Jersey, for instance, to commute to Brooklyn.
But for employees like Pavel Samsonov, commuting into Midtown Manhattan may no longer be a priority.
For three years, Mr. Samsonov lived in a 350-square-foot studio apartment on the Upper East Side, a quick subway ride to his job near Grand Central Terminal.
In March 2020, as New York City was shutting down from the pandemic, he started a new job as a design architect at Amazon Web Services, the cloud-computing arm of Amazon. Afraid of catching the coronavirus, he did not venture outside his studio for 10 weeks.
“It was really depressing,” said Mr. Samsonov. “I ended up breaking my lease. I couldn’t take it anymore.”
In search of more space, he moved with his fiancée in October to a two-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn’s Crown Heights neighborhood. He said he would consider relocating further into Brooklyn; he and his fiancée both now have fully remote jobs.
Though Brooklyn’s population is growing, many of its longtime, lower-income residents are struggling. The job losses in Manhattan have been concentrated among lower-wage workers — the hotel cleaners, restaurant cooks, tour guides — who are unable to work from home and tend to live outside Manhattan, exacerbating the city’s uneven recovery. Brooklyn’s residents have an unemployment rate of 10.5 percent, higher than the 7.8 percent in Manhattan.
The challenge moving forward, economists say, is figuring out how to fuel job growth in Brooklyn in a way that provides opportunities for local residents without pricing them out.
So far, the pandemic appears to have accelerated the affordability crisis in Brooklyn. The median home sales price in the borough keeps climbing, reaching $910,000 last quarter, according to the appraisal firm Miller Samuel.
Business leaders said that after many minority-owned small businesses in Brooklyn closed permanently during the pandemic, their storefronts were taken over by white entrepreneurs who could raise money from family and friends.
“If we truly want an equitable recovery, entrepreneurs of color need a new financing framework that acknowledges the historic disadvantages they’re facing in accessing capital,” said Randy Peers, president of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce.
During the pandemic, Suzanna Cameron, who has owned a florist studio in Brooklyn’s Bushwick neighborhood since 2018, noticed lots of new faces shopping in her store, including customers who said they had just moved in from the glitzy Meatpacking District in Manhattan. Thanks to more affluent customers, her retail flower sales jumped 50 percent last year compared with 2019, helping to make up for the steep drop in weddings.
Ms. Cameron has grappled with the impact of her business in the changing neighborhood.
“I know that gentrification can be good for the economy, but also I know it pushes people out,” she said. The studio regularly donates flowers and money to local nonprofit organizations, which she said was an acknowledgment of her role as a “white-owned business coming into an area that’s traditionally been lower-income.”
“It’s my way of hopefully balancing that out in some kind of way,” she said.

CHARLOTTE, N.C., — Southern gospel music legends Bill and Gloria Gaither, along with the “Homecoming” friends – more than 100 gospel artists – were in Charlotte last week to film the Gaither Homecoming Tent Revival special at the Billy Graham Library.
“It’s a perfect place for us,” said Bill Gaither about the Billy Graham Library.
The Gaither Homecoming Tent Revival special is reminiscent of early tent revival meetings, much like the “Canvas Cathedral” in Los Angeles where Billy Graham gained worldwide recognition in 1949. In fact, the Gaither event aimed to recreate the atmosphere of that historic crusade, with its large tent and standing-room only crowd.
“Music has always been a very important part of the Billy Graham Crusades. In fact, the Vocal Band has sung at the last 10 or 12 Crusades, including the last one in New York City,” said Gaither. “And, so to have an entire evening, singing songs about Jesus, singing songs about the cross, singing songs about invitation, I think is a great thing.”
Before the event, private tours were given of the Billy Graham Library to the participating artists. The group was able to see depictions of various scenes from Billy and Ruth Graham’s life, including a replica of the “Canvas Cathedral” from the 1949 Los Angeles Crusade.
Bill and Gloria Gaither were joined by legendary gospel music artists The Crabb Family, Michael English, David Phelps, Guy Penrod, Mark Lowry, The Gatlin Brothers, Buddy Greene, Larnelle Harris, The Nelons, The Martins, The Isaacs, longtime Billy Graham Crusade soloist George Beverly Shea and musical director Cliff Barrows, plus many more.
During the program, Bill Gaither presented 102-year-old George Beverly Shea with a commemorative copy of Billboard magazine, which has listed a Gaither Homecoming special with George Beverly Shea as #3 on its chart of best-selling music videos.

I have an audio track with Fab-Filter Q3 on it and I also have a midi track. The farthest I’ve gotten is having one of the “Midi Sends” “Note to CC”. But this is sending random information to Q3 even if I am pressing the same note(C3)
Fab-Filter Q3 can have a midi input as a knob control the frequency, but I’m having a hard time turning my keyboard into CC values for Fab-Filter Q3 to recognize. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The Cabins at Terrace Beach
Travel Blogs from Ucluelet
Many people have a cabin on one of the
Lakes in the interior region
of British Columbia.
You may ask, are these
Canadian lakes warm enough to swim?
Once you get in it is fine.
Kayaking and waterskiing are very popular.
We finally had some sunshine for our journey to Tofino! Long Beach was pretty cool with some huge waves, a couple of surfers, and lots of washed up kelp. We had another fabulous picnic lunch, on the beach and in the sun this time, while we fought off the attention of all the seagulls. We got a few pictures with the digital camera on the beach, but there should be some more awesome pics from Mike's film camera on the way, its been really hard to find ...
... bottom even around depths of 30 feet!
We are feeling really good about the ground we have covered over the last to weeks so happy hour felt pretty sweet in the sunshine.
Lots of kayakers coming and going; we lost count after about thirty over the span of only a couple hours.
Dad crashed around 9:30 but I wanted to stay up to see the stars only to get socked in by the fog around 11:30 – JUST as it was getting good!
... really friendly and kind. He took the woman to the bus station where she could get the bus to Tofino 5 minutes later, which was fortunate as there is only one per day. Then he asked where we were going and we said that we were actually going to Enterprise to get our car, but we would get them to pick us up downtown since the agency is actually a little out of town. The driver said he was heading in that direction anyway so he gave us a ride for free and told us to call him for a ...
... for a while and eventually see him breach the water for a moment. Barely noticeable his back and fin almost look like the shadow under a wave, and then before we are able to really catch our breath he is gone. Le wicked. Then a little more wave fun and we are le pooped. Head back to camp for some eats and a nice
warm fire. Keep things quiet, go to bed a bit early.

Suzanne Edmunds, MD
Founder, Acupuncture Energetics, PLLC
In 2019, my life and 25-year career as a Pediatric Critical Care physician were derailed by a health crisis. For more than a year and a half, my condition declined as doctors grappled with my unusual symptoms. During that time, I experienced crippling, virtually constant pain. The simplest chores became daunting challenges; I was barely able to leave my home.
Desperate for relief, I broadened my search for answers. I became open to healing techniques that I might not normally have pursued, trying Reiki, Craniosacral Therapy, and acupuncture. I was genuinely surprised to find that I experienced something, seemingly on an energetic level, and undeniably real. I found acupuncture particularly effective for pain relief.
What I learned from this experience is that, as it was put to me, “The body stays tidy by hiding the mess”. The organic failure underlying my symptoms had been brewing for years before the “explosion” that stopped me in my tracks. A more sensitive communion with my body could have prevented the crisis and the damage that followed.
Ultimately, I attribute my recovery to a marriage of biomedicine and energy-based therapies. As I began my formal study of acupuncture, applying what I learned, the pace of healing accelerated. By living in harmony with my condition, rather than striving to “beat it”, I once again have a productive and fulfilling life.
As a physician acupuncturist, my goal is to help you achieve the success I have enjoyed with this powerful healing technique, not as an “alternative”, but as an adjunct to your healthcare regimen.
What Our Patients Say
“In my brief (6 week) experience with Dr. Edmunds, I went from having a painful and unstable left knee and hip to being pain free. Yes, pain free! I must say, also, that my general well-being has improved. I have less fatigue associated with my long-standing IBD. I look forward to working with Suzanne as she establishes her new practice.”
“I have suffered from chronic back pain and sciatic nerve pain for several years. I met Dr. Edmunds and started acupuncture treatment once a week and was amazed at the results. My pain has substantially decreased. And the real positive thing is I have no need for prescription pain medication.”
“After I had rotator cuff surgery and had finished physical therapy, I still had a lot of stiffness and pain in my neck and shoulder. After my first treatment with Dr. Edmunds, I was pleasantly surprised that my muscles had relaxed and the pain was gone. I will certainly continue maintenance visits.”
“I met Dr Edmunds in our Master Reiki course and was impressed by her intuitive nature. She is so thoughtful when considering my health issues. She has helped me with several physical problems, and I have been pleasantly pleased with the results. Suzanne has a great heart to help others.”

Four characteristic features (Development in Hungary from the aspect of political economy) Part One
The article, consisting of two parts, emphasizes four characteristic features of the Hungarian reform process and the postsocialist transformation, which, uninterruptedly, characterized the development over the last thirty years, even after the systemic change in the political sphere. These were: priority of the material welfare of the population, a strong, paternalistic welfare state, the gradual progress of the reform process and the transition, as well as political calmness. The stabilization programme, announced on March 12,1995, may imply - if it materializes - a shift away from these characteristics. The article investigates, from the aspect of political economy, why the four characteristic features had developed, how they affected each other and what were their advantageous and disadvantageous impacts. Setting out from the impacts of the 1956 revolution, the first part gives an overview of political history and then analyses the priority of today's welfare, security and calm as well as the accumulation of societal debt and, finally, the economic and political impacts of the stabilization programme.
Fiscal illusions, decision theory, and public sector reform
Reforming the public sector in Hungary implies a fundamental restructuring and reduction of government expenditures. Not surprisingly, attempts at radical reform were vehemently opposed by groups that would be adversely affected by the proposed measures. It is more than puzzling, however, that even potential beneficiaries reject the idea of curtailing the fiscal responsibilities of the state. The paper argues that this paradox can be explained by the fiscal illusions of voters and by an "anomaly" of rational decision making, known as status quo eiect or loss aversion in the literature.
Optimal growth revisited
The present paper deals with the problem of optimal growth with finite horizon. The starting point is Harrod and Domar's growth modell with constant capitaloutput ratio, but the investment ratio can change continuously within certain bounds. It is assumed that the objective function (to be maximized) is the discounted integral of the instantaneous utility function, which in turn is an increasing and strictly concave function of the instantaneous consumption. The innovation of the paper is the assumption of timeinvariant inelastic intertempotal substitutability. This assumption is not only a better approximation but eliminates those paradoxes which led TINBERGEN  to reject his own results. It also undermines the relevance of SHELL , VIRÁG , TAKAYAMA , and KOVÁCS-VIRÁG  where a policy first only invest later only consume was found to be optimal.
Dilemmas of the Hungarian economy in the nineties: foreign investments, balance of payments, amortization of debts
In the early nineties it seemed as if the growing inflow of foreign direct investment, the receipts from tourism and the trade surplus or at least its balanced state allowed the fulfilment of the debt service and that Hungary could increase her foreign exchange reserves in the course of the decade even in excess of the debt service and reduce the net stock of external debt. As reflected by facts, these expectations proved to be too optimistic. The author investigates the individual items of the balance of payments in order to find out how the external balance of the country could be improved even until the investments started to bear fruit and thus the balance of trade can show a more favourable balance.
Comments on the study by Balázs Hámori: The economy of mental infatuation
The author sets out from the thesis that the model developed by Balázs Hámori for the explanation of the sects may be generalized. At the same time, he criticizes the study because the reasonings about the exclusion of stowaways do not provide explanation precisely for the fact towards which the analysis had originally been directed, namely, for the substance of the salvation goods "expropriated" by the members of the purblind, extremist sects. (The original article was published in the September,1995 issue of this periodical.)
Subcontracting in the manufacturing industry
The article, based on a survey and study prepared for the Ministry of Industry and Trade, deals with subcontracting as a special form of interorganizational relationship of growing importance. While previously in most market economies its major role was to provide additional capacities, from the seventies specialization has become the driving force and in the eighties subcontracting means the core of new types of production systems. The lean production idea increased the weight, rohile globalization the geographical radius of subcontracting significantly. Most of the subcontractors belongs to the SME (small and medium sized enterprise) sector but many large enterprises are also engaged in fulfilling large volumes of such tasks. The article presents the main characteristics of subcontracting in the manufacturing industry of the Hungarian economy in transition, and formulates recommendations for strengthening subcontractors, subcontracting systems, adapting international experiences. In order to become as much as possible lasting, appreciated partners, taking part also in R and D activities, competitiveness and innovativeness of the Hungarian subcontractors should be upgraded.

We were tipped off to a site in the UK called JobCrowd, which is a bit like GlassDoor with more of an emphasis on job reviews.
Users anonymously note the best and worst aspects of their jobs, their actual working hours (which of course vary wildly from what is posted), and salary.
Here’s one from a PR practitioner at Edelman, for example:
What do you actually do on a day-to-day basis?
Everyone’s job in the company varies greatly. My work is very media heavy so I talk to journalists and editors every day to try and get my clients exposure – both for what they are selling and through corporate profiling. I provide journalists with story ideas, providing research, commentary (which I write on the client’s behalf) and case studies if needed. I also liaise with clients daily to discuss comms plans going forward and messaging to media. I regularly have client and journalist meetings, sometimes meeting both as introductions.
What are the main positives and negatives to your job?
Positives are that you are very busy and constantly talking and building relationships with people – both media and clients. The working team and atmosphere is very friendly and there are a lot of people of a similar age – good social scene. Negatives are it can be stressful, long hours, and can get repetitive (but not boring).
And so on.
Here’s one from a designer at Saatchi & Saatchi X and a brutally honest marketing assistant at the Accountancy Institute (“[I am not doing] what my job description said! I seem to mainly be doing admin work an office junior would do. It is starting to pick up though with events organising and social media awareness ideas….I thought this was an awful salary for a university graduate with 1 year’s experience. But in this job market it was hard to get anything else. You really have to be prepared to start at the bottom….Once I leave work, I can forget about it completely. Absolute bliss!”).
The downside (besides that it’s not quite as useful for jobseekers on this side of the pond): Some of the reviews, despite being anonymous, are utterly unhelpful. This account manager at Groupon manages to say almost nothing despite having typed out more than 150 words about his/her job. Oh well.
Try it out, see what you think.

Dick Vermeil made a teary exit from pro football 17 years ago. Those were tears of frustration and agony from a man suffering from busted dreams and an obsession with winning.
On Tuesday, Vermeil made another teary exit from the game that has been his life. But this time, the tears were of joy and exhilaration from a man made whole by the realization of his dream.
Two days after leading the St. Louis Rams to a Super Bowl triumph, Vermeil resigned as coach although he still has two years left on a five-year, $9 million deal.
Vermeil's successor will be offensive coordinator Mike Martz.
Vermeil first set his sights on reaching the top of the pro football world 25 years ago when he became the Philadelphia Eagles' coach. But after spending just 40 hours at the summit of his sport, soaking in the heady atmosphere, Vermeil decided to come down.
"I think the time is right," he said. "Very few people in this profession get this opportunity. Some great people, way more talented than Dick Vermeil, have experienced tremendous success and then followed with a very depressing way of leaving coaching."
Vermeil is the fifth coach to depart after winning a Super Bowl, following Vince Lombardi (Green Bay Packers, 1967), Bill Walsh (San Francisco 49ers, 1988), Bill Parcells (New York Giants, 1990) and Jimmy Johnson (Dallas Cowboys, 1993). All four returned to coaching, the first three at the pro level and Walsh at Stanford.
But at 63, Vermeil won't be back, said Terry Donahue, a close friend who followed Vermeil as head coach at UCLA and is now in the front office of the 49ers.
It was known that Carol, Vermeil's wife of 44 years, wanted him to retire.
"What else do you have to prove?" she had asked him.
But Vermeil emphasized at Tuesday's farewell that his wife had not been the deciding factor.
"I am certainly not being pressured into doing it," he said. "I make decisions quickly ... I talked to my wife about the decision for 20 minutes [Monday night) and another 20 minutes [Tuesday morning). So help me God, that's the truth ... I probably spent 15 minutes longer making the decision to leave than I did in making the decision to come here. It's not that complicated. You go do something and you make it right."

The future surveillance society world could have a very Orwellian no-privacy flavor.
Carnegie Mellon researchers, taking part in DARPA’s Mind’s Eye program, have created visually intelligent software to recognize human activities in video and then predict what might happen next.
By Ms. Smith
If a person holding a gun were to walk up to you, what might you think would happen next? Researchers from Carnegie Mellon have created intelligent software that will identify human activities in videos and then predict what might happen next. It should come as little surprise that the spookily named ‘Mind’s Eye’ program is sponsored by DARPA’s Information Innovation Office.
“A truly ‘smart’ camera would be able to describe with words everything it sees and reason about what it cannot see,” said DARPA. Visually intelligent technology previously ‘thought’ in terms of nouns to describe a scene, but Carnegie Mellon researchers have made smart software that can also think in terms of action verbs. “A video shows a woman carrying a box into a building. Later, it shows her leaving the building without it. What was she doing?” asked Carnegie Mellon University.
The Mind’s Eye software “will compare the video motion to actions it’s already been trained to recognize (such as walk, jump, and stand) and identify patterns of actions (such as pick up and carry). The software examines these patterns to infer what the person in the video is doing. It also makes predictions about what is likely to happen next and can guess at activities that might be obscured or occur off-camera.”
Carnegie Mellon University’s National Robotics Engineering Center explained the image below as: “The Mind’s Eye program will automate video analysis – recognizing current behavior, interpolating actions that occur off-camera, and predicting future behavior.”
The next step is to make the ‘Cognitive Engine’ even smarter. According to the report “Using Ontologies in a Cognitive-Grounded System: Automatic Action Recognition in Video Surveillance”, the researchers “plan to extend the system functionalities in order to support a wider range of action verbs and run tests on a large video dataset.”
DARPA explained, “In the first 18 months of the program, Mind’s Eye demonstrated fundamentally new capabilities in visual intelligence, including the ability of automated systems to recognize actions they had never seen, describe observed events using simple text messages, and flag anomalous behaviors.” Carnegie Mellon is one of twelve research teams and three commercial integrators participating in the five-year Mind’s Eye Program.
Previously, BRS Labs had the “smartest AI suspicious behavioral recognition system” with “the capability to learn from what it observes, remember activity patterns and adjust to changes in the environment, field of view and equipment – without manual interaction.” Phys reported that the Carnegie Mellon “researchers’ approach is designed to help prevent crimes or dangerous events from happening.” The newest visually intelligent software “system would eventually sound an alarm if it recognized that an action was not permitted, detecting anomalous behaviors. One example of such a scenario would be the cameras at an airport or bus station, flagging a bag abandoned for more than a few minutes.” This Army-funded AI research was disclosed “at the Semantic Technology for Intelligence, Defense, and Security conference at George Mason University.”
The Mind’s Eye system could potentially be used to analyze live drone footage. Who knows, it might even be integrated to work with the unblinking surveillance stare of the Army’s 7-story flying football field-sized blimp? It will likely be embraced in the future by the police and by the military to keep soldiers out of harm’s way. It might have home security applications, watching the surveillance video and alerting home owners with a text message before burglars break in.
On the creepy privacy invasion side of the coin, it’s one more surveillance technology hunting suspicious behavior. Let’s hope the researchers get it right because when added to social media surveillance helping the government read your mind and future TSA plans to track all ‘daily travels to work, grocery store and social events’, the future surveillance society world could have a very Orwellian no-privacy flavor.

Letters to the editor for Dec. 8
Census-taker impressed by locals
From August - October 2020, I worked as a Census worker going from house to house in Washington County interviewing folks for the 2020 Census. I was afraid I would run into lots of angry people during my door-to-door work. After two months, I realized I could count on one hand the number of people who were angry when I knocked on their door. Only one shut the door in my face. Instead, I found and interviewed dozens of people who were willing to drop whatever they were doing to complete the census. This impressed me.
I recall so many patient and kind people – like the woman in Hurricane who was just getting on her motorcycle to go on a ride with her husband when I encountered them. She immediately got off her bike and met me on the front porch for the interview. Or the countless young mothers with kids by their sides who were patient and gave me the time to complete the interview.
Most people were very kind, even in the middle of a busy day. It gave me hope for our country and I felt better about our future. I’m grateful to live in a community where people are giving, patient and kind.
It is a curious thing indeed that Utahns put their off-hours social life and casual clothing in the category of their most precious freedoms.
Consider the hypocrisy of our views. We allow our entire bodies to be corralled into a room, even into a single chair, for five or six hours a day for twelve long years. No problem!
We are legit cool with every minute of our workday, every step taken whether to the cafeteria or the restroom, to be tightly monitored by our bosses. Gotta love it!
We bow down to the traffic authorities telling us when to signal, stop, go, slow down. Part of life!
But when it comes to holiday gathering and face regulation, we weep and wail, and prostrate ourselves on the ground in anger and despair. The injustice of it all! Total government overreach!
Really? Regulating partying is why the wild West hired law enforcement in the first place. People were getting hurt. Why don’t we allow government to do its job?

Last Updated on April 10, 2020 by Office of Logansport Mayor Chris Martin
The following is a statement from Mayor Chris Martin on his opposition to the WSP Zinc Plant:
“Patience is power. Patience is not an absence of action; rather it is “timing” it waits on the right time to act, for the right principles and in the right way.”~ Fulton J. Sheen
After a lot of research, phone calls to government officials, and conversations with those for AND against WSP, I have decided that it’s in the best interest of Logansport to oppose the building of this plant in our community.
I sincerely appreciate those who were respectful and willing to give me the time I needed to gather the information necessary for me to form my own opinion and stance on this issue.
I have e-mailed the county commissioners and have asked them to table any meetings until this COVID-19 situation decreases in intensity enough to remove the restrictions on public gatherings. This project should not be allowed to move forward until the citizens of Cass County can be heard.
The Logansport High School Young Republicans, along with the Mayor’s Youth Advisory Council is working on a public forum for the citizens to ask questions about the project, and about the company.
Citizens of Logansport, know that you have an alliance with the Martin Administration in square opposition to WSP. I will stand shoulder to shoulder with you as we continue making our way through these incredibly difficult times TOGETHER.

Every year we celebrate Earth Day on April 22 to celebrate the planet’s environment and raise awareness about environmental pollution. Normally we would spend this day organizing beach clean ups or planting trees, but Earth Day looks a little different this year. Even though we are all at home, here are a few ways you can celebrate Earth Day and take action at home.
Clean Up Your Street
Although we can’t organize beach or park clean-ups this year, we can still try and clean up the neighborhood around us. When you take a walk (while practicing social distancing!), take a bag along to pick up any garbage you may see along the way.
Organize Clothes & Home Goods Donations
While you’re at home, take this time to do some spring cleaning and organize donations of things you don’t need. By donating old clothes and home goods instead of throwing them away, the items will be reused by someone else rather than having them take up space in our nation’s landfills. Although many businesses are not taking donations at the moment, there will be a need for donations once they open again.
Bring Reusable Bags When You Grocery Shop
Instead of using plastic bags when you go to the grocery store, bring your own reusable bags to protect the environment and avoid non-renewable resources. Reusable grocery bags are stronger, better alternatives. If you use plastic bags, they will end up in landfills or worse: the ocean.
Every little thing adds up to make our planet a better, healthier place. Happy Earth Day!

To all those angry protestors out there, yelling at people for wearing masks, refusing to respect reporters’ requests to stay six feet back, and screaming in the faces of police officers, I have a message for you:
I HAVE A RIGHT TO PROTECT MYSELF AND MY FAMILY, TOO.
If I want to wear a mask in public, let me wear a mask. If I want you to stay six feet back, stay six feet back. After all, as of May 5, 2020, the CDC reports that COVID-19 (Coronavirus) has killed 68,279 people in the United States, and has infected more than 1 million. Protestors, you’re not the only ones with rights in this country.
I’m angry, and I’m sick and tired of these people getting the limelight. I’m not in the streets counter-protesting because I believe in the importance of staying home right now. I WANT my governor to keep the re-opening of my home state, Arizona, slow and steady, because it protects my rights as a worker. It also protects my senior parents.
And yes, protestors: I have every right to wear a mask and tell you to stay six feet back. I have a right to my safety, health, and life as well. If you don’t listen after I tell you to stay back, and you approach me in a rage against my will, don’t be surprised if you get an elbow to the chin.
I’m a 5-foot-3 woman in her late 30s, and I will not put up with people threatening me because they believe I’m somehow part of the problem for wearing a mask and adhering to social distancing guidelines. People are growing increasingly bold, like the story of this Texas park ranger who was pushed into the water for reminding people to stay six feet apart, or this Family Dollar Store security guard and father of six who was murdered for asking a store patron to wear a mask.
I’m also sick of the brazen gun displays at protest rallies. Spare me the “second amendment” argument. I support the second amendment and my right to own a gun to protect myself, too. Those guns at the protests are meant for one thing, and one thing only: to intimidate others.
If people want to believe in conspiracy theories, or that the request to wear masks is somehow about government control, that’s fine. But the moment those beliefs turn into threatening actions against me, my family, and my loved ones, the gloves come off.
For anyone thinking this piece lacks supporting evidence, I’m venting without attribution for a reason. Conspiracy theories, and anti-science/anti-fact sentiment, have seemed to grip our American society lately. Those who believe the virus is a fake cover for the government trying to control the masses cannot be reasoned with. And I refuse to try.
I think the lunacy deserves an equally loud counter voice. That’s this blog post. If you agree with me, amplify it. SHARE NOW.

Is there such a thing as a gender-neutral interior? I believe so, but for someone like me who has such a feminine flair when it comes to interior design, achieving a decor that is equally boy and girl-friendly is quite a challenge. Two weeks ago, I moved in with my boyfriend and I’m in the process of figuring out a way to tastefully merge his stuff, masculine and industrial inspired furniture, and mine, light colored furniture with French inspired curves (good thing I’m a fan of the eclectic look!). But slowly, everything is coming into place; in the end, balance is the key and I’m learning to tone down my very feminine impulses.
I’ll share pictures of the work in progress with you very soon! Until then, I’ll keep exploring beautiful decors like these that scream neither girly-girl nor bachelor pad.

Adults and children had a chance to play a card game while learning the principles of healthy living recently when the Kaiser Permanente Educational Theatre came to Marin City to host “Lets Play Loterìa” and talk about health and active living.
The event was held last Thursday at the Manzanita Children Center.
The Mexican card game Loterìa was the basis for the game. Playing sheets, similar to bingo cards, were passed out to the audience with six different images printed on them
Christine Jamlig and Johnathan Williams, presenters from the Educational Theater, picked a random picture card and explained the health issue related to that card. They also presented a funny skit to help the audience understand more about healthy living and eating.
As in bingo, the audience marked off the pictures that were on their cards, until someone finally shouts, “Loterìa!”
Felecia Gaston, from Performing Stars, helped to bring the Kaiser Permanente Educational Theatre to Marin City.
The Oakland Kaiser Permanente has five acting troupes that have performed as far north as Santa Rosa.
Since 1986, the Educational Theatre Program has performed live productions free for more than 15 million young people and their families. They have covered such topics as puberty, bullying and depression, and prevention of sexual transmitted diseases.
In Northern California, “The Best Me” inspires elementary school students and their families to make healthier choices for their lives through dancing and songs.
