Frank Overfelt (Readers' Forum, Nov. 15) informs us that the terrorists we fight against "are not human beings." Once you dehumanize them, they become just so many insects or vermin needing eradication. Overfelt, like so many other frenzied war hawks, apparently believes the solution merely is to kill all the terrorists. Never mind that the problems began with Western imperialist land-grabbing after World War I. Never mind that our covert operatives have provoked revolutions and assassinations there for decades. Never mind that our own governments have force-fed selected pet corporations down the throats of Middle Eastern nations. The level of corruption poured into those lands by Western governments is mind- boggling. In a medical analogy, the Middle Eastern body seems to be rejecting ...

There are roughly two acres of prolific perennials, shrubs, fruit trees and vegetables surrounding the townhouses at FrogSong. These gardens were designed by awardwinning landscape designer Patrick Picard, owner of Equinox Landscape, and Penny Livingston of the Regenerative Design Institute. Both designers specialize in creating ecologically friendly landscapes that work with Mother Nature, not against her. Their creations don't require a shed full of chemical warfare to combat disease and pests.

This qualitative study, based on a series of 30 in-depth interviews and 109 economic surveys conducted with active heroin users residing in and around Detroit, Michigan, describes reported patterns of heroin use and income generation activities. In spite of lack of access to regular, legal employment, we found that many participants displayed a dedication to regular daily routine and a sense of risk management or control. These findings are discussed relative to past research on heroin addiction as well as recent research on the changing nature of employment. We argue that this sample fits somewhere in between the controlled or working addict, and the "junkie" or "righteous dope fiend" of urban lore. We draw a connection between these stable patterns of addiction and income generation a...

Of all the plant societies I've been involved with over the years, one of my favorites is the South Bay branch of the California Rare Fruit Growers Association. I love their can-do attitude. If something isn't supposed to grow in Southern California, they have dozens of examples in their backyards to prove the experts wrong.
