Good wins all over the place

My teams have been winning lately.

UH beat up someone on the road, 45-7, to go 6-2. 1 medium game, 1 hard game, and 3 really easy games left. 9-3 plus 1 game. Could be 10-3 or 9-4.

Patriots Won, As I Said They Would

The New England Patriots, of course, won handily on Sunday. Yes, 23-20. Three games finished 23-20, on a day for numerologists.

Everyone won

Everyone won.

Dartmouth College
Patriots
UH Warriors and UH Wahine (2)

And the raiders lost, going to 2-4. Since we have their #1 draft pick next year, we want them to keep losing.

UH

UH beat the 19th ranked U of Nevada last night at Aloha Stadium. 5-2 at this point. The last three games are incredibly easy. Three others are hard, with one at Boise State probably impossible. So, it looks like 8-3, with 2 others I can't predict.

10-3, 9-4, or 8-5. All of these results are good, and get the Warriors into a bowl.

I would have been there if I had been there.

Duh!

Here is an article from the Source, our on-line newspaper. Seems that this area in Cruz Bay is used for storing stolen goods, and the police know it.

So, just look there for stolen goods. Duh!

Police Return to Clean Up Troubled Cruz Bay Area
By Lynda Lohr — October 7, 2010

A pit bull found in a wooden shack in Cruz Bay was brought to the Animal Care Center.

After residents complained, staff from the Police and Public Works departments launched a cleanup Tuesday of an area in Cruz Bay troubled by crime, vagrancy and illegal drug activity.
Crews removed a plywood shack, as well as piles of trash. They also cut down the bush in the area to improve visibility.
“But they come right back,” said the owner of the nearby Banana Deck restaurant, who would give her name only as Kristin.
People who frequent that area steal items from her restaurant, including cans of soda when the restaurant was closed, she said.
During the latest cleanup, crews discovered a pit bull living in the plywood shack. Police took it to the Animal Care Center.
“She was covered in fleas and ticks,” said Kimber Marner, an animal care technician at the shelter Thursday.
The dog immediately got a flea and tick bath, but Marner said that by Thursday the dog needed another bath because the first one didn’t get rid of all the fleas and ticks.
No one was arrested during the cleanup.
This is the third time this year Police and Public Works crews cleaned up the area, Police Department spokesman Melody Rames said.
"This is an effort to rid several areas in the community where loiterers and vagrants hang out in bushes to conduct illegal activities. By clearing out the area it will give police and the community higher visibility into the area," Assistant Police Commissioner Raymond Hyndman said in a press release.
The heavily vegetated area, located across from Raintree Court in Cruz Bay, is about 1.5 acres in size and home to local fruit trees and wild vegetation. Deputy Police Chief Darren Foy said the area has been used to store stolen items and for drug use.

A garden in Fish Bay

Not for Profit: Fish Bay Native Plant Garden
By Lynda Lohr — October 3, 2010

With a $3,325 Urban and Community Forestry grant and 200-hours-and-still- counting of hard labor, a small group of Fish Bay, St. John, residents created a Native Plant Garden on land owned by the Island Resources Foundation.

The garden sits right along Marina Drive, the main road through Fish Bay, and is adjacent to the Fish Bay gut. All are welcome to visit.

“We are trying to educate property owners about all the good plants we have in the area. And we’re trying to stop clear cutting,” Terry Pishko, president of the Estate Fish Bay Owners Association, said.

Clear cutting of property when landowners build homes has been an issue across St. John. Pishko hopes that if the landowners see that they have plants good for landscaping on their property they will think before they bulldoze them down.

The small shady garden has paths that wend this way and that. On the land among the paths grow a huge profusion of plants native to the island. One is solanum concarpum, a rare plant that grows only on St. John. Area scientists hope that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will eventually include it on the Endangered and Threatened Species List. Another plant, the marron bacara, was long thought to be extinct, but is growing in the Native Plant Garden.

Other plants include examples of tyre palm, bay rum, black calabash, guavaberry, hoopvine, pepper cinnamon, and wattapama. A full list is available on the Estate Fish Bay Owners Association website.

The Estate Fish Bay Owners Association got the Forestry grant because the organization developed the project for the good of the community, Marilyn Chakroff, forest stewardship coordinator at the Agriculture Department, said.

The grant money went to pay for lumber to line the edges of the path, gravel, signs, peat moss, and tags. Additionally, the grant funded the cost of a consultant to identify the valuable native plants on the property and a contractor to create the paths.

Clearing the property of plants like catch and keep and sweet lime as well as creating the paths took about a year, Pishko said, but board member Allan Weinstock continues to expand the pathways and keep up with the garden’s considerable amount of maintenance. Weinstock said he’d like to build a small bridge over a small side gut off the Fish Bay Gut.

However, like Pishko and most other volunteers who developed the garden, Weinstock is retired and getting past the point in his life where he want to do the heavy work required to expand the project and keep the garden looking good.

“It’s an ongoing project. Maintenance is the biggest issue,” he said.

Both he and Pishko said they wish some younger residents would volunteer to help out.

“But it’s hard to interest them,” Pishko said.

Those interested can visit www.estatefishbayowners.org for more information on the indigenous plants in the Native Plant Garden.
