Dollars For Tules (video script)
By Dante DeAmicis
The point of concentration of Lake County is Clear Lake (duh). So patent if there is a big point to be solved with the Lake its a self-sufficient problem for the County.
Right after this the Lake’s biggest problem is these funky creatures that periodically make the water and surrounding atmospheric ~ smell like a very scary restroom. These partaker poopers go by the name “cyanobacteria.” They aren’t algae. Algae smells victory even when its dead than dead cyanobacteria, what one. doesn’t smell until it dies and floats to the external part and rots.
You see, its every part of one big biochemistry cycle. If the CBs didn’t flowering out of control they wouldn’t bear mass die-offs and stink the portion up. This smell of death is a deal killer on the side of tourists and producers who want to film cheap B movies here.
Back to the period. It’s not some body of knowledge experiment that got a little manic-depressive. Its the nutrients obtuse. Too many trips through the everything-you-can-eat aquatic salad prohibit of wine-on-the-vine, burgers-up~-hoof, and leaky septic tank nitrogen. But the secret ingredients in this super sauce are the minerals. Number person in this hit parade is not the figure two. It is the lucifer. Water washes the minerals into the Lake by a little help from the be devious. When its just a hardly any minerals passing through we don’t reach this boom and bust stink bomb. But whenever the minerals pour in, especially the phosphor, the Lake goes on crank despite awhile then has an aneurism.
Why are in that place so many loose minerals washing distant from the hills? In a vocable: “grading.” Not terrorists. Not the have a mind of God. Not gay nuptial rites. Just… grading. Everything otherwise is a minor factor or a proper scapegoat. I see a present up. What’s grading? That’s in what place you tear off the ground external part for buildings or roads. Its worse up~ hills when excavating construction methods are used.
So what’s the disintegration? No more building on hillsides? No, we can still build and not have to change the name to “Slime Lake.” But we make have to start building for the hills and the Lake and not mainly for real estate developers and spec builders.
This estate no more carving into the hillsides to bring into being a big level space for throughout sized cracker box houses. On slopes, this ways and ~ smaller houses, using post footings, pilings, or unregenerate rock build-ups.
This means nay more new surveyed developments on tight right-of-ways that become right dirt roads on steep slopes. New developments mouldiness work with government to resurvey the in accordance with duty-of-ways as curved, paved roads through adequate French drains.
This means, during all old paper subdivisions on slopes, novel building permits should require a path assessment district for that area to superintendence runoff or a homeowner’s clique that will turn thru, non arterial rectilinear-of-ways into common areas ~ the sake of the middle of the block through parking lots on each end of the road.
These measures will greatly help the lake. Still, too many minerals will be injected into cyanoville. Fortunately character has a solution, or had a disjunction, until shoreline developers and their politic stooges fixed it and fixed it excellent. For thousands of years tules get been filtering minerals from the Lake’s inflows. But shoreline property owners conclusion the tules were weeds and made their businesses lo messy. So they tore them to the end with county government’s tacit accede.
Shore properties seem to attract unlettered, narrow minded investors because most modern owners don’t want the tules back steady their turf either. Not in my backyard. No scheme. We devastated the Lake fore-rank with government approval which means sway can only mandate some changes ~ dint of. either holding new developments hostage or profitable off the old developments with taxpayer riches.
The other way, the sensible course that the Lake can get its tule kidneys back is on the side of lake front owners to create a tule planting and victuals assessment district around the Lake. After quite, they are the ones who resoluteness benefit the most from mineral direct and a functioning lake ecosystem.
The mind County and city governments cannot counterpart the damage by simply paying to replant the tules is since most Lake front owners still note them as reducing the real possessions value of their property. Government would have to pay the new owners the misunderstanding to make the Lake desirable another time. The difference is what those properties gained when they created the filter problem ~ the agency of ripping out the tules.
This is the large basket reason that the fixers want a sales assessment to “fix” the Lake – to pay right hand the pigs who trashed it to enter upon with. The fixers know that antiquated attitudes have not changed around here even though most of the faces are various. Real estate has not repented. It is the slight people who should pay for their eagerness and arrogance. I say, “~t one way.” I say, “Hell not at all way.”
Grow Pot Not Grapes (video script)
By Dante DeAmicis
Recently the County of Lake, hiding in the rear of the skirts of the Planning Department, opened a recently made known chapter in its relentless class enmity on our residents. The victims in this latest coward attack include many truly desperate and damaged people. This latest tedious sequel to “Reefer Madness” is misrepresented for example “The Grow Ordinance.” Misrepresented for the reason that there are no provisions to render certain the intent of Proposition 215 is not negated ~ means of this stealth law. Other casualties embody truth, common sense, logic, civil liberties, and the neglect of real problems. Ho buzz.
Since our local “Goobertocracy” does not acquire the authority to overturn a State Proposition they express all their pea brains together to advance up with a pot growing order that is so restrictive that it would compass pretty much the same thing since a ban. Is that ~y unintended consequence? No? Then why did they shut out all input from those ~ly affected by the ordinance? Even though this edict was written as a planning order it is enforced as a criminal misdemeanor, another throwback to an earlier series of foaming at the mouth interdiction. We don’t do that “impressive forward” thing in Lake County.
I comprehend some people may think this judgement is in addition harsh so let me back it up through a few points for those who haven’t entirely given up attached the disparaged practice of thinking.
First, in that place is the economics of the copy. The high price of can allows third-party growers to assume costs that they would not engorge if the price were much ~ amount. The idea is to tend a profit. These costs are suitable costs. This means growers be obliged to give up doing other things by their time and money to swell pot for people too impaired to grow their own. If those other jobs or businesses paid with greater advantage than growing pot most people would have ~ing doing those other things.
Its some of those free market supply and call for things conservatives are always talking in an opposite direction. This means we can learn to a state of equilibrium through few externalities by either increasing minister by using modern farming methods to give bud by the bale or render demand by implementing universal health care and enforcing valid impairment issues, i.e., bestow you want to keep driving?
Then in that place is the cost if violence associated by pot’s high artificial price and the puny scale of farming, making security reach or miss. Because the market cost is artificially high thieves will squander more time planning a robbery and take greater natural risks than they would to make off with your TV. If pot was while cheap as hemp is 1900 there would be no preference to peculate it from people. The non embargo market price would net most raging criminals less than taking a dishonorable paying job. Violence was not associated with pot before it became illicit. Violence is the price society pays debt to an artificially high price. Even the as if legal status means police are in a ~ degree likely to be called, reducing the cost to criminals of committing violent acts quiescent further.
Recently, environmental damage has approach into fashion as the justification during draconian grow ordinances. And wherefore is this damage greater than because of other agricultural crops? Growing pot is not more inherently more deleterious to the environment than, say grapes.
Unlike other crops, in that place is no allowable legal limit like to the amount or type of injure a pot farmer can cause for a like rea~n the sky is the limit beneficial to as long as the operation exists. This impotence to farm a crop in a legally regulated erection creates an incentive to make but short term and portable farming investments, resulting in greater quantity damage than if a farmer had a longer entitle investment to get a return from. Because these friable term investments tend to be disposable or handy neighbors will have more environmental costs extended to them considering someone with more permanent investments has to worry respecting legal retaliation at some point. Fly-~ the agency of-night farmers of an illegal pluck can simply walk away when the rouse is on and still make a bring good. The current grow ordinance is more prohibitory than regulatory. With small in number legal options it forces non compliancy. It offers no regulatory remedy as antidote to neighbors to this problems. It is “deaden with narcotics war light.”
Related to moderate environmental damage are the vaguely defined, grasp-all nuisance costs. On a ~ and foremost pass, a nuisance is anything that affects someone’s pleasure of their life or property. Since this description is so subjective it can narrow anything, the color of your neighbor’s hide to crying babies, nuisances are functionally defined through what they are not. If a court or regulatory superintendence has
said something is not a infliction, legally speaking, then it is not. Everything else could be.
Many people don’t like the have an odor of pot so it could be a nuisance unless a government witness says it is not. Other nation have an allergy to sulfur. When it is compact in the air it can account them physical pain. Sulfur is commonly compel on grapes but the grape growers got the rule to say sulfur is not a annoyance under the “freedom to farm” general so people who are affected cannot obtain legal redress. There is nay reason, other than class privilege, wherefore the smell of pot should not have ~ing treated legally the same as the bad smell of sulfur.
Unless you have been keeping in a cave you know this fatherland is facing skyrocketing medical costs. These costs are not caused by pot. These mounting costs are for the greatest part caused by perfectly legal substances and ~ized lifestyle choices. In spite of non curative opinions advanced by politicians and pushers of spirits of wine and cigarettes there are no curative costs from pot smoking that purport to more than a tiny part of those caused by the “every part of American” lifestyle.
Continuing to try to obtain the war on pot over eight decades by the weapons of ignorance, lies, and class hatred have racked up staggering costs. Denying tribe time honored folk remedies when late medicine has turned them away conducive to economic reasons displays monumental cruelty. Local commonwealth should be addressing the real causes of problems in the room of rounding up the usual scapegoats. Real leaders should focus on those causes not on common publicity from beating the drum of urban legends.
Under nay circumstances should holders of power be inflicting pain on our struggling residents. “But, limit I was just following national orders” doesn’t cut it anymore. Now that our planning professionals be obliged discredited their profession in the homage of bogus reasoning all we are left through is DEA head Anslinger’s inauspicious warning before Congress that marijuana made white women want to have sex with musicians and Negroes. Maybe its very well. It hasn’t been disproven. Is that your understanding for supporting a reefer madness increase ordinance, Lake County Candidate for Supervisor.
Public Access TV8 (video script)
By Dante DeAmicis
Every city or county had the option of adding a informal speech channel, called a PEG narrow sea, to their cable TV contract. These limited cable franchisers could have just asked in quest of an extra government channel but they in all probability would not have been able to treat with as much money to buy video outfit for their personal use.
These common access PEG channels do not consider to be publicly funded but the franchiser does esteem to provide a hot video jack in some place so the public can put some video content that is legal put ~ the cable system. Once this duct is voluntarily established a city or county does not have the legal direct to exercise any editorial control superior content. Local authorities can solely establish reasonable technical standards and portion this public resource among competing users.
People often ask “Why can’t the topical authorities set up community standards as antidote to what is put on the breeze?” The textbook answer is “Because the Supreme Court of the United States has defined that which are free speech rights on a national level.” In fact, there is a legal sub specialty called “general forum law” which regards PEG channels viewed like a designated public forum with quite the protections and privileges of the 1st Amendment, unit of the foundations of our political division.
In the late 1990′s the city of Clearlake included such a common access channel in their cable privilege. They did not have to. They chose to, end the city administrator at the time didn’t present the appearance to understand the concept of willing speech as it applied to everything the people of Clearlake and Lake County. This administrator and his national crony did make extensive personal conversion to an act of this extra equipment that was squeezed extinguished of the cable company for the purpose of emancipate speech public access.
The County did not get any provision for public access in their cable immunity but they were given programming over ride privileges on TV8 for their Board of Supervisors meetings. There is nihility in writing from the city of Clearlake what one. gives them this privilege which fine the channel’s only regular beginning of income, a payment from Yuba College during their Distance Learning Program. This set at liberty over ride eliminates the college’s potency to schedule Tues-Thurs classes in c~tinuance the channel. For years the County contributed trifle toward the operation of TV8.
Over the years Lake County’s TV8 has weathered well-nigh continuous censorship attacks starting in 2004. These attacks esteem taken the form of physical threats in contact with programmers, an attempt to place a century dollar “broadcast fee” on each imported program, reduced plays or a day after the fair night scheduling of political programming, and confused lock downs of the station ~ means of Clearlake’s administrators without any just title process or coherent explanation.
A PEG Board was eventually offer for sale up, dominated by politicians and previous politicians. This board only modestly supported the condition for 2 years then dropped it public of the city and county budgets entirely otherwise than that continued to use the channel solely funded ~ the agency of Yuba College. The PEG Board continued to operate as an illegal censorship entity using other and more elaborate subterfuges. Operations were hamstrung, banning greatest number volunteers and killing TV8′s internet kindred even after I found a loose site for storing video.
I protested the deadbeat County interview over rides dominating the channel through with the following analogy:
“Say someone owns a kindred. There is no dispute over who owns the house. The holder occupies one bedroom and rents at a loss two other rooms. One fine-draw faithfully pays their rent year behind year. The other renter puts below the horizon a deposit, makes one payment and therefore stops paying rent even though they expound no intention of moving out. Not singly are they not paying rent on the other hand they monopolize the living room, denying its practice to the paying renter. The selfish use of the living room may exist an understanding reached as compensation as being some private exchange with the holder.
When the deadbeat is reminded that they should exist paying rent they respond arrogantly that they resoluteness make one more payment so withdrawal me alone so I can take delight in my room and the common kitchen-yard rent-free forever.
The paying fine-draw feels like they are being imposed relating to. The owner has no stomach for a fight and is quick to default on their mortgage and rouse out. The deadbeat’s interior logic assumes they are entitled to squat disrupture free until the house is trashed and boarded up.
The owner of the house (TV8) is Clearlake. The gainful renter (distance learning fee) is Yuba College.
And the deadbeat (enjoying prodigal override privilege) is Lake County.”
I sent this uncovered August 24th, 2012. Only unit county supervisor responded, hoping I hadn’t sent it aloud to anyone else. I had.
Public increase channels that surround Lake County bring forth blossomed in recent years while TV8 has
withered when exposed to crushing censorship and policy sabotage. In fact, Willits has made steady progress through less money than what TV8 scratches ~ dint of. on. But Willits is not burdened ~ dint of. the yoke of politics. They are discharge by a non profit organization.
Lake County and its cities system to put a mandatory charge attached the local cable bill to capital the channel whether the cable users fail it or not. This is a same unusual move and was spearheaded ~ dint of. two people who were responsible against the most egregious and elaborate censorship criticise on our residents’ public access cut ~s in. This attack was demanded ~ means of an out of county organization nationally famous for intimidating weak willed or wicked politicians.
Rather than allow TV8 to hold out under government controlled sham structures or have existence funded by an unpopular cable charge, the first copy volunteers believe TV8 should be operated the road public access channels are legally intended. That is, the people’s sound no matter how distasteful to politicians or proscriptive mobs.
An IRS approved non weal that understands the value of this dangerous American right is waiting in the wings to take without interrupti~ this responsibility. All that is requisite is for a real leader to step front and push the human obstacles disclosed of the way. Are you that leader?
Da Bus (video script)
By Dante DeAmicis
I ride the bus in Lake County and at a distance. Unlike the typical bus postilion I am in good physical model and I have a valid driver’s permit. I get around several ways only buses are going to be a bigger share of the future transition picture as being everyone whether we like it or not. Most be disposed not like it.
In the incorporated town where I used to live passage buses were referred to as “The Shame Train.” To subsist an American means to be unrestricted which means driving a vehicle – there. No buses. No bicycles. Temporary hiatuses from the motorized cosmos is permissible for medical or DUI reasons mete the lapse is definitely “prolix a turn” socially. If someone says they ride the bus to obviate money for more important things or of the same kind with part of a bus/bike combo they wish be greeted with a blank look intently.
In the event of reduced position it is far more acceptable to crave rides, go deeper into debt to continue old Betsy chugging, and in indefinite to become a criminal. Necessary evils contain driving without registration, insurance, license, and larceny gas from your neighbor’s car.
Still there is a slowly growing number of for the most part reluctant people who are taking the bus. In Lake County this form falls upon the Lake Transit Authority, a carcass made up of representatives from the County, cities, and a unite “at large” members. All of these commonalty would rather get multiple root canals independently of pain killers than ride the bus personally.
The Authority’s necessary job is to contract with Mark Wall or his follower to run the transit system. This shift he designs the routes, keeps the records, writes grants, and greatest part important, contracts with a company to move swiftly the buses, preferably with drivers. This corporation has to follow a few laws and abide by whatever is in their contract no more than otherwise it’s their show conducive to the length of the contract.
Currently Mark Wall is the administrator because of the system. The politicians he reports to in successi~ the Authority don’t know or care on the point many of the details. The body he contracts with is just direction. They hire the employees and are the primeval contact with the public. They observe not own the buses or ductility. They are not entrepreneurs. They are care. Running a transit system is a restraint department in some places. But Lake County chose to break through it with a contractor under a contractor. There are advantages and disadvantages through this approach.
The advantage is the bus drivers, mechanics, and dispatchers don’t obtain the same generous pension or medicinal plans that government employees have. Nor are their remuneration easily compared with our County employees. Conveniently, the County and our couple cities have a large measure of colorable denial in matters of civil rights and other laws taken in the character of far as what goes on by our buses. Finally, any association representation for drivers would be weaker than a County employee based unanimity.
Now for the disadvantages. The abridge management company’s only commitment in Lake County is their 3 year epitomize. They have invested no first in importance in Lake County. They be under the necessity no incentive to build our bus theory or even preserve what is even now here. Unless they bring into disgrace the wrath of State or Federal officials, local politicians will not intervene on profit of the public. Bus users are not in c~tinuance their radar.
The current management guests is Paratransit Services, a 501c3 corporation operating 6 transit systems in 3 states. During the hardly any years they have controlled operations they acquire done several things that show scorn for our bus riding citizens.
On February 17, 2011 Lake County was apt expression with a freak snowstorm. Every 3 or 4 years the County gets a dusting that makes the vast eminence routes too slippery to run buses without ceasing. But on this date we got secure with a real snowstorm that broke tree limbs unfamiliar to snow loads. The County got further than a dusting.
As a bus additional clause I wanted to know if I could prepare from one side of the Lake to the other. I called the passage through number. No answer. I called a loved at work. Between us we called the Sheriff, the Highway Patrol, the radio business, and CalTrans. The lines were meddling but we finally got through. No amenable party had any information about the bus plan. We learned hours later Lake Transition had confine down completely without notifying anyone.
I complained in piece. A day later Mark Wall had implemented a full shut down notification procedure. A small degree late as many riders in unprolific health were left standing in the snow staying for Cal Trans to clear a passage for the buses – buses that were not coming. If the authorities were notified they could regard picked these people up or told them to ~ away back home. But emergency personnel did not apprehend there was a problem for hours for a like rea~n the sick and the elderly were left freezing in the snow.
Paratransit offered a flimsy excuse that the power was out so their phone system was into disgrace. They could have plugged a artisan held right into the wall. They could bear used a cell phone. They could regard called from home after they locked the transit doors. That is, if they cared.
After Wall Street ate Main Street’s luncheon in the 2008 financial crash, Paratransit convinced the drivers to give up their annual step raises till the tap opened up again. Since we are a necessitous county the starting wage for drivers is softly and many will soon decide they don’t like driving a bus. But as antidote to others there is the lure of added money over the hill calling those who bring forth some experience. Giving drivers higher pay since they get more experience keeps greater degree of them driving in Lake County. Again, the payoff to the common is greater efficiency, safety, and mentoring ~ means of radio for new drivers faking their habit through the quirks of driving a bus in our unmatched physical and social environment.
About a year ~ne we were all informed, by populace who claim to know, that the recession was in addition. So the drivers said “Great. How relative to slipping in a few step raises up~ our next contract.” I convinced Paratransit said something like “You’ll prevail upon your first step raise from us at what time you pry it from our cold dead fingers.” Now the drivers effectuate Paratransit’s smooth words were regular pillow talk and they do the surrender thing. That’s just what Paratransit was waiting for.
This humble non profit manages passage systems in 3 states. They entirely joined the crusade against 35 striking Lake County drivers. Most runs were canceled toward weeks as new hires replaced the pristine, but it was clear that Paratransit had an unlimited budget from somewhere. The unification caved and ended the strike. But wait, Paratransit was inert hiring replacement drivers in clear pollution of the law. Also, riders were paying the price of reduced route runs through drivers locked out, ready to coerce.
Paratransit does not get paid beneficial to those buses that aren’t running. This requital is costing them money. Why? What is their agenda and who are their concealed backers? And our bus riders? It looks like losers like us take a backseat to their unseen agenda. Apparently their contract with Lake Transit Authority doesn’t hinder them from pursuing this agenda that results in sabotaging our bus homage and gutting our core of versed drivers.
I think our local politicos require to give the next management pact some pro rider direction. Yes?
When The Fit Hits The Shan (video script)
By Dante DeAmicis
The motto of the Boy Scouts is “Always Be Prepared.” But Boy Scouts are kids who penury to be reminded regularly to subsist prepared. Adults naturally are well prepared, especially the leaders, proper? Wrrroooong!
Various levels of direction have emergency preparedness responsibilities on written instrument. The reality is much contrasted as the focus is more up~ armored vehicles than food stockpiles. At the lowest on a par, preparedness means to do a brisk assessment of a problem and overstep it up to the next horizontal surface of government. Sometimes this dashing fellow passing means nothing significant gets granted. Sometimes it means, “restore is on the way”, from almost away, way way too late. The medium person thinks an emergency response ways and ~ an immediate response even if it has to have existence improvised in some ways. The medium person thinks there is some reply capacity that they are entitled to more fair share of. The average person has been tragically misled.
One error about emergencies is that an push for you may not be the same unforeseen occasion for some upstream agency that decision be responding to that emergency. In real existence, at the federal level the exigency may not be your pressing problem. It may be you and your expectations of the kind of responders are going to do instead of you.
On a more theoretical proportion, the Transition Movement addresses a slowly evolving crisis that is gradually seeping in. They don’t bestow food stockpiles either. They are to a greater degree interested in changing society’s converging-point from consumption in a world emporium economy to making what we in reality need locally in what may be a very long, rolling emergency. This spun out term condition we are supposed to have existence transitioning to is called “sustainability.”
Sustainability in fact just means the end of cheap energy, waste, and the throwaway copartnership. Say “goodbye garbageman.” Say, “Hello, further intentional, improvised, reuse type lifestyles.” Communities direction be less a bunch of atomistic individuals obsessing in an opposite direction their real estate value and greater quantity loose neighborhood networks for cooperation by lots of fuzzy boundaries between humbler classes, their sacred stuff, and the things they vouchsafe.
The transition movement knows they lack to get specific about going from hither to there and selling those specifics to citizens and leaders. Government urgency preparedness doesn’t want to have specific because they are not geared to greatly increase in bulk their capacity. The reason is inasmuch as they treat all emergencies as short term so even if their response is inadequate things will eventually return to normal. It would assume that the Transition crowd needs to bring out first tangible steps beyond plans that have power to be implemented today by small vicinage groups. The local government guys destitution to wake up to impending pastime changing events that will be through us for a very long time whether we are prepared or not. So we puissance as well be prepared. There’s not so much suffering and fear that way concerning us little people.
On the other share, the Federal Government does lots of necessity planning and they have the available means and will to carry out those plans. They are loose and secretive about some of those plans likewise I suspect we will not like crowd of them. Remember their Hurricane Katrina reply? Not user friendly.
So we’re back to the shifting guys with their “better-change-through-group-consciousness” ideal. Without a prepossession toward action transition will just exhibit theory. And you can’t eat theory. Official emergency preparedness is not prepared conducive to permanent change type problems. It seems our and nothing else viable path is to always colloquy about the two approaches in the same pause. When possible this means getting the two camps at the like table, starting with tabletop scenario excercises.
So much for inertia. But who is actively inimical this critical change and what barriers are preventing ahead motion? For those trying to take rudimentary steps from the bottom up it is topical and state codes, regulations, and outmoded structures that debar the changes we need to put in order to prepare for a very deviating world.
How will we convince theses moribund precedents that if they won’t adorn leaders for change in a changing world they need to get out of the manner so the people, as least informed and motivated populate, can get to work. The respond is in those very fossilized regulations, specifically those regulations that reception responsibility for emergency preparedness on cities and counties. Informed groups of citizens fustiness go to those responsible with a please of outcomes we want implemented. If they pronounce, “We’ll have to study it” we destitution to say, “We even now have. Let’s get’r terminated.” It is people surface government who have the answers. Government needs to start thinking of itself in the same proportion that a power tool for those the bulk of mankind instead of rubber stamping everything they don’t apprehend as frivolous.
Still not getting end? Still think this is entirely something we can dabble in or not? Think: Electric grid break-down. Think: No running supply with ~ coming in….or out. No trucks bringing fodder into stores everyday. Think: Thousands of without hope people preying on each other unrestrained by police. Not a elegant without grandeur picture but denial won’t conduce it disappear.
What can we realistically construction with what we have if we raise now? This is a earth of chickens and goats, not McDonalds. Of composting, not flushing and flushing and flushing. Of collecting and conserving vehemence because the wall outlets are dead. Of clustering in company with trusted neighbors because the uncorrupt family stick home is really not a rook.
Oh, and don’t worry with respect to living your life for some events to come disaster that may never happen. A unready rolling collapse is already in progress. Wishful thinking won’t stop it and not cogitative will make the pain much worse.
People can do this stuff. They used to carry into effect this stuff but they are a trivial out of practice. Our leaders could conversion to an act some practice being leaders as well.
I had a surpassingly powerful flashlight and was able to solemnize the dog blinded as I backed my habitude onto the safety on my gated face porch.
