yanking our chains...
Could it be the American culture that is the problem?
Or at least aspects of it - what a shame that the University of Canterbury saw fit to close the American Studies department, at this point in time. I guess future Canterbury students will never have the chance to know now... -

Summer Snow
We have these in Chchch, too!
I suspect Mr Judd may have tales of these, he may even have accidentally ingested any amount of these 'snowflakes' as there is a prolific arboreal generator right opposite his office building... it's like driving through a snow globe round there...

Capture: Two Tales of a City, in reply to Gudrun Gisela,
Vanishing points...*
...the trouble with Christchurch is that many houses on the streets are there no more and leaving large stretches of it looking you are on a country road
I've just put together a set of 16 cards of Victorian Chchch, for Smith's Bookshop, from photos they own - Chch looking empty in some, and the building of buildings now gone (either before the earthquakes or since), street scenes from the Cathedral, Lyttelton (before the fire I think) - fascinating stuff - so head on out to the Tannery Emporium container shops for stocking stuffers for the antiquarian in your life - I think they're $25 a set...
* aka a shameless self-serving plug!

Capture: The Castle, in reply to Lilith __,
I'll go with that...
Flo Cafe, Opawa.
We went to the Opawa/St Martins Farmers Market there (Helios health clinic / Steiner School in Fifield tce) on Sunday, what a great place and market - a friendly community space, I heartily recommend it

Hard News: This is Your TV on Drugs, in reply to greenlove33,
huff and puff...
...and then American drug policy easing off
its grip on the rest of the world.I imagine they'll ease off cannibinoids if they can ramp up the spread of antidepressants, SSRIs etc - what a country create the stress, supply the 'cure', happy PharmaCorporations all around. Despite the fact that all the mass killing shooters in recent years seem to have been on psychotropic / psychiatric 'medication' - still it may mean that Obama gets the gun control he wants.
It's odd (but not surprising) how a country formed by a revolution of citizens against controlling government interference, then fears, and spies on its own people...
I was unmoved by his crocodile tears at the weekend - the shootings in Connecticut are an appalling tragedy, but Obama's drones have killed more civilians and children in a single speculative signature strike than that, and regularly.
But then again the US regime salutes the double standard - the Stars and Stripes and the False Flag, it seems...
I feel a sea change coming, but its final nature eludes me as yet... -
