Around the Table: Mr. G., Lauren, Vlasta, Ellen, David, Viddle, Mira (taking the picture: Alan)
At the Table: Alan Weiner, David Rosenberg, Viddle, Mira Rodwan, Mr. G., Lauren Hanisian, Vlasta Molak, Ellen Bierhorst,
Mira: Katsura, our Japanese salonista, reads our Weekly from Japan ...She works with deaf children...cochlear implants...
Ellen: next Tuesday we have at 6 pm a Driehaus meeting here. Come!
Mira: I have heard Denise Driehaus speak (Steve's sister), and she was heckeled by tea baggers and she was poised and smooth and gave excellent answers. (see http://www.house.state.oh.us/index.php?option=com_displaymembers&task=detail&district=31 )
Ellen looked up who is our Ohio House rep: Dale Mallory, includes zip codes 45220, 45117, 45223, 24, 25, 32...
Reading Behind the Scenes: 30 years a slave, 4 years free by Eliz. Keckley. Fascinating. She was dressmaker and confidant to Mary Todd Lincoln.
David: This is the Transition Handbook, the case for why we need transition to sustainability and how to do it in your neighborhood. I am reading it.
Mira (told of her job with the African American adult day care center in Evanston ill.)
vlasta: I agree with Sarah Palin on something! I don't think they should build the Islamic Center in NY.
Mr G: I agree with Obama I don't want any religion at ground zero. I have to accept that Islam in this country is not seen as another religion. It is not at ground zero, but two blocks away. I don't feel the gv't should have power over private property Only if public safety or stability is threatened... My opinion is that it is an ethical issue. Obama said "Of course they have the right:" but then he came back and said "That doesn't mean I think they should do it."
David I think Obama was right; what makes us great is that we are tolerant of other faiths. ....I can't believe that all Muslims are intolerant.
Mr. G what % of Pakistanis would rather have US military out?
...
David I heard on the radio that there are various Taliban sects, and some are more humanistic.
Vlasta they enslave women. Horrendous!
David quoting from the Transition Handbook: for e 10 cents invested in Nuclear could produce one kilowatt of nuclear energy. Wind power a dime invest gives 1.7 kilowatts... Small cogeneration (small generators, lie houses, grid together) for every dime invested, 2.2 to 6.5 kilowatts of energy.
Or for a dime invested in energy efficiency like insulation, we can SAVE ten kilowatts.
Energy return for energy invested for various sources.
E.g. Energy required to build a wind farm that produces so much energy.
Ratios: one of the worst is biodiesel, ethanol. 2::1. Clean coal 2.5:::1. Heat pumps, nuclear are 3::1.
Geothermal 7::1. Conventional coal 8::1. Solar PV 8:1. Solar thermal 9::1. Concentrating solar energy 18::1. Large hydroelectric 22:1. Small hydroelectric 32::1. On shore wind 28::1. Off shore wind 35::1.
Sewage and landfill gas 40::1. Tidal range 87::1.
I like this book, they ask good questions.
Mr. G I am now against wind power because of the bird problems.

SECTION TWO: ACTIVITIES, OPPORTUNITIES
DRIEHAUS Campaign House Meeting
Lloyd House
Monday 23 August
6-7:30
Park on Lafayette Ave. Leave shoes in foyer.
Meet Steve, hear his stump speech, see the Lloyd House, meet Ellen, have snacks, meet nice people. Come!
IT IS IMPORTANT TO RE-ELECT STEVE TO THE HOUSE! Good man, right votes, Democrat, support Barack.
Sustainable Environment & Advanced Rebirth of Cincinnati Heart*
Dr. Vlasta Molak, President, Gaia Foundation, www.gaiafoundation,net, DrMolak@gmail.com
We will demonstrate a practical application of the sustainability concepts in the Cincinnati Heart*, a run-down area consisting of seven distinct neighborhoods, adjacent to each other and forming the inner city of Cincinnati. This includes renovation of houses using maximal energy efficiency in design, in addition to passive and active solar collectors, rainwater collection on the roofs for use in the apartments, and total recycling of waste. Also, we are designing a practical public transport system using a fleet of electric battery powered small buses (with solar panels on roofs), which will gradually eliminate car traffic from the area. A long range plan includes community gardens for growing food and local work for the area residents, such as non-polluting factories and other sustainability promoting businesses. We will preferentially employ the people living in the area in order to promote walking and biking to work and thus eliminating the need for car use, resulting in drastic decreases in CO2 emissions from transportation (biking is ~60 times more efficient than driving a car, and thus compared with fossil fuel-driven conventional cars, creating 60 times less CO2 emissions). Our ideas differ from the unsuccessful trials in the past by its integrated systemic approach and seeking cooperation of all the current residents and organizations active in this area. We are listening to all the actors and shareholders in the communities where we want to implement our Sustainable Environment and Advanced Rebirth of Cincinnati Heart* (SEARCH), and are finding optimal solutions that will satisfy all the people who will live with the consequences of our work. Only an approach where people living in a run-down area are included into the renewal project, can enable a change to be lasting and sustainable. Rather then classical gentrification, we will train and employ currently unemployed poor people in the area and help them transition into contributing members of our society (see the slide show).
* Cincinnati Heart includes neighborhoods of Over-The-Rhine, West End, Pendleton, Mt. Auburn, The Heights, Fairview, University Heights, Clifton Heights and Corryville. Together they resemble a human heart, which we believe is quite appropriate symbol for our project.

Ellen Bierhorst Ph.D. ~ Alexander Technique ~ http://www.lloydhouse.com ~ 513 221 1289 ~ Cincinnati
I am having a blast here in my first year of teaching the Alexander Technique! Unbelievably, a full calendar since the launch of my practice in late June 2009. This winter I was having so much demand for my lessons that I had to stop advertising and ask some well-progressing students to drop back to twice a month instead of weekly lessons.
Fantastic fee deal (limited time only): First lesson free; second through 4th lessons only $10. After that, only $50/lesson if you buy a package of 4 at a time, prepaid. * The "real fee" is $78 per lesson. I am interested in "turning on" as many people as possible to this wonderful learning. Good for pain, for performance improvement in the arts, atheltics, ... And finally, good for personal development. It has definite geriatric benefit as well.
You can read about my own experiences and find links to other sites here:
http://www.lloydhouse.com
Call and make an appointment or to discuss it with me. 513 221 1289.

* However, it is my commitment to adjust fees for anyone truly wanting lessons who cannot afford even this modest fee. Try it and see. Ellen

Ecological Retreat Sept 17-19 near Hillsboro, Oh (45 min?)
Bill Cahalan is a friend of mine. I recommend this. Ellen
LIVING WITH ECOLOGICAL VISION
A retreat
We live in a time when Earth's life is unraveling, spurred on by our ever-growing economy and ecologically blind culture. But increasingly people are waking up to the beauty and complexity of nature, creating new ways of living which harmonize with nature's wisdom.
In our retreat at beautiful Highlands Nature Sanctuary, we will seek to be part of this awakening by exploring an ecological way of seeing. Drawing on the science of ecology, we will reflect on Earth's cycles and rhythms to help understand our global crisis. This knowledge, integrated with native, Quaker and Buddhist perspectives, will then help us see reality with new eyes, becoming sensuous participants rather than mere observers. We find ourselves within nature as living body or system, rather than viewing it as outside of ourselves, mere resource or scenery.
Friday evening we share our intentions for the retreat, and get oriented to the local landscape and retreat plan. Saturday morning we take part in a guided experience and hear two presentations to prepare for an experiential focus the rest of our time. Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning each person walks on a silent, solitary journey into the local woodlands. On these walks we practice sensing relationships and patterns more than things, opening to immersion in places and beings we resonate with. Returning to a sharing circle, we harvest our experiences by means of talking and writing.
Come enjoy this late summer weekend in Highlands' marvelous woods, streams and landscapes. Sample understandings and practices which may help ground and guide your day to day living as you face both everyday stresses and new global challenges.
Dates: September 17 – 19, 2010.
Times: Friday 8:00 PM (arrive any time after 5) to Sunday 2:00 PM.
Meals: 3 meals Saturday & 2 meals Sunday are provided.
Lodging: Beechcliff Lodge (see photos at www.highlandssanctuary.org/lodging).
Cost: $160.00 covers all. Check due by Sept. 10. Limited to 10 participants (5 rooms).
Questions: Contact Bill Cahalan at 513-251-2558 or awakentoearth@gmail.org.
To register: Mail check, name, phone # and email to Bill at 601 Enright Ave.

Thanks for this from Ginger Lee Frank, salonista in absentia
By Michael Greger MD, Posted August 5, 2010, Published in Health
Vegans "Significantly Less Polluted"
Every five years, the U.S. government measures the amount of toxic waste in our food supply. Dioxins are a class of industrial pollutants spewed into the atmosphere that "accumulates in the fatty tissues of humans and food animals consumed by humans. It is generally believed that the most significant exposure to DLCs [dioxin-like compounds such as PCBs] by humans is from the dietary intake of animal and fish products." But which animal products pose the greatest risk?
According to recent data from the Environmental Protection Agency, second only to fish in terms of PCB levels: eggs. This may help explain the findings of a recent study that found that egg consumption "was associated with in increased odds of cancers of the oral cavity and pharynx, esophagus, upper aerodigestive tract (includes oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, larynx), colon and colon and rectum combined, lung, breast, prostate, bladder, and all cancers combined."
Of all the cancers, egg consumption was most tightly correlated with breast cancer risk. Those eating more than a half an egg a day were found to have nearly 3 times the odds of breast cancer compared to those that stayed away from eggs entirely.
The industrial toxins found in animal products don't just contribute to cancer risk. According to a recent commentary in the journal Reproductive Toxicology, "increasing evidence suggests that maternal exposure to toxic chemical compounds may be associated with various congenital [birth] defects, pediatric problems, skewed gender ratios, lethal cancers in children and teens, psychosexual challenges, as well as reproductive and endocrine [hormonal] dysfunction in later life." The author concludes: "I anticipate that future generations of scientists will look back with disbelief at a medical culture that permitted poisoning of reproductive aged women and ignored ramifications to unborn children."
What if one chooses not to eat meat, fish, dairy, or eggs, though? A study entitled "Impact of Adopting a Vegan Diet...on Plasma Organochlorine Concentrations" was recently published by an international team of scientists. Organochlorines "are chemical products that were widely used after World War II as insecticides and in industry. In the 1960s, their adverse effects for the environment and human health began to be known, and in the 1970s their use was banned in most industrialized countries [including the United States]. However, because they are so resistant to degradation...[they] continue to be present in most food chains worldwide....Being at the top of the food chain, man is contaminated via food, in infancy from breast milk and later from animal products such as fish, meat and dairy products."
The investigators note that studies have shown that organochlorine concentrations in the breast milk and fat tissue of vegetarians is lower than in omnivores, but no studies of "real vegans" had been undertaken. Until now. Testing a wide range of carcinogenic industrial toxins and pesticides, the researchers "found that vegans, were significantly less polluted, then omnivores...."
What surprised the research team was that vegans had as much toxic exposure as they did. The scientists offered a number of explanations. For example, the vegans "may have been breast-fed as infants, and might thus have been exposed to OC accumulated by the mother, and which are transferred to her baby at the time of lactation. Moreover, becoming vegetarian or vegan is often a decision made in adulthood." That was another problem they noted: most vegans aren't vegan from birth. "Thus, the omnivore diet followed during childhood and adolescence results in a contamination by OC that is still detectable in adults....In addition, vegans may, on rare occasions, depart from their diet and eat some animal products."
To decrease our exposure to industrial toxins in our increasingly polluted world, we need to eat as low as possible on the food chain as soon as possible: a plant-based diet.
HI Ellen,
Good to see your newsletter as always. I was especially happy to see you're opening your house to phone banking for the election. I read Bentley's letter and she's right on in her comments. I'm working (as volunteer as usual) for Lee Fisher. You can pass that word along and I'll get in touch with more info about SW OH organizing soon.
All the best,
Jody Grundy
Stay tuned for Bentley Davis' updates on the political scene... Bentley rocks! Ellen

from Lee Schmidt: Saw _Inception_ last night. I think it's one of the best written action thrillers I've seen. Christopher Nolan wrote and directed it. I'm sure he was influenced by Phillip K. Dick. What wondrous twists and turns! I will see this again on the big screen!
