I received the 1st time their newsletter recently (issue sprin/summer - 2009 - volume 4 / Issue 1) - interestingly they already had 4 volumes and this is the only one reached me - it was in the lobby of my building. So glad I had a copy.

I learned about the Oakland Ravine Stormwater Project - it's nice to learn about your neighbourhood. I love strolling at the Oakland Lake and Park - it's so serene and beautiful there.

Here is another important link to a place I love here in Bayside:

Various INFORMATION regarding the California Fires - January 2025 via social media

Various videos reporting the fires in Los Angeles area on Twitter/X   Updated information Jan 10, 2025: About the Resnicks and shortage of WATER and other manipulations." One billionaire couple owns almost all water in California. The family donates SIGNIFICANTLY to Democratic candidates You won’t believe this, in 2021 they made a huge donation to Gavin Newsom to fight against his recall Lynda and Stewart Resnick own roughly 60% of California's water rights. Some estimates say this could be as high as 75% “They use over 150 billion gallons of water every year” “Water used to be considered a public right, that was until 1994 when there was a secret meeting.

Alder wood, known for its water resistance, was primarily used, along with oak and larch. 2. The wooden piles have petrified over time – Partially true. The piles haven’t literally turned into stone (petrification), but they have become extremely hard. This is because they are submerged in oxygen-poor water, which prevents decay and allows minerals from the water to gradually reinforce the wood. 3. St. Mark’s Campanile stands on 100,000 piles – False. The bell tower is supported by about 10,000 wooden piles, not 100,000. 4. Basilica della Salute required over a million trunks – Likely an exaggeration. The basilica does rest on thousands of piles, but claims of a million are probably inflated. 5. Piles are driven up to three meters deep and spaced half a meter apart – Generally accurate. The depth and spacing vary, but...
