Chevron Socks from Sensational Knitted Socks, knit in Froehlich Blaudband Maxi Ringel, in color 7709, which is grey, blue, red and navy. I ran out of yarn near the toe so raided my stash of sock yarn inherited from my Grandma and found some grey 100% nylon that matched quite well, so we have solid toes on these socks. These were a gift for my Dad Christmas 2005.
I'm using 6 different colors of Koigu - two at a time
The pattern is:
With size 7 needles (5 for sock weight) cast on 33 stitches (45 for sock yarn)

A chevron fold in a Carboniferous sandstone and shale sequence at Millook Haven near Bude in Cornwall. These folds were formed during the Variscan Orogeny following the closure of the Rheic Ocean at the end of the Carboniferous, following basin inversion. The sandstone and shale have behaved very differently during folding, the shale being squeezed into the core of the fold and showing axial-planar cleavage. The sandstone has white quartz-filled joints, which occasionally radiate around the nose of the fold. The scale is a one metre ruler.

This icon will remind me to play more before it goes.
Ginger Cassady, campaigner with Rainforest Action Network, addresses crowd at Chevron's Headquarters in San Ramon.
A court in Ecuador has found Chevron guilty of massive environmental pollution and human rights violations in the Amazon, and has ordered the company to pay $8 billion to clean it up. But Chevron has vowed to appeal the decision, and clearly plans to stall indefinitely, hoping never to pay its due. So the Change Chevron team got together with our friends and allies at Amazon Watch, Greenpeace, Global Exchange, and Communities for a Better Environment (of Richmond, CA) headed down to Chevron’s HQ in San Ramon, CA, and delivered a message to the company: Chevron was found guilty because the company is guilty. Time to accept responsibility and clean up the oily mess in Ecuador!

If he just threatened someone with a club, would he ask him to take the club and go sit near by?
_______________ __________________ _______________
There was some unusual policing at the Anti-Fracking Critical Mass Bike Ride and Chevron Blockade.
The officer playing "Good Cop" immediately started threatening cyclists, including myself, with supposed charges while claiming that he was the good cop, fighting off his supervisor's desire to arrest us all. Some of the activists bought this.
My mention that I am disabled, and that I was riding my prescribed mobility aid didn't deter his zeal. The cop expected me to park my bike and walk around while taking pictures. He ignored my questioning of his awareness of what mobility aides and disabilities are. He wanted me to walk, in pain, against doctors orders; zero empathy.
While on our route I notified the officer of dangerous driving by cars, including two vehicles that both failed to stop at an unmarked "T" intersection, and both raced by uncomfortably close to the cyclist's riding in a group on the narrow side-street.
The first driver was clearly talking on his cell phone, and the second driver yelled obscenities at the cyclists as he raced by on the very narrow residential street.
When informed of this, the "Good Cop" blamed the cyclists for not sticking to one lane on this narrow ONE LANE RESIDENTIAL STREET.
When I mentioned that the car actions are deadly and dangerous, he became VERY ANGRY, and again blamed the cyclists for not staying in one lane on the narrow ONE LANE RESIDENTIAL STREET.
In his rage, the officer, driving on the wrong side of the road, clearly driving fast (IN A SCHOOL ZONE), raced up to the group of critical mass protesters. He parked in the middle of the street blocking traffic in both directions, to lecture the cyclists about riding safe and to stay in one lane, like they had been.
The "Good Cop" reminded us again that he is the good cop and he is fighting off his "Bad Cop" supervisor who wants to arrest us all.
At the next Chevron, an angry motorist in a street racing car twice threatened the protester pedestrians on the sidewalk.
The car was impatient with the blockade and devised a solution to access the closed gas station. He thought it best to threaten the protesters with a deadly weapon, his car.
He gunned it, popped the clutch and lurched forward attempting to frighten and intimidate the protesters. He stopped just short but had failed to check if there was an innocent cyclist riding by in the bike lane. He just missed him, but not due to skill; it was luck.
That wasn't enough for him so he did it again; revving his engine and lurching forward, this time even closer to the wall of protesters.
What if his foot slipped off the clutch pedal? What if he raged out and went postal? What if...?
That car sounded pretty powerful. How many people could he have taken out?
Shouts alerted the clueless and unaware Saanich Police officers, who were clearly more focused upon cyclist violations than deadly threats with a motor vehicle, and the loud revving of his street racer's likely illegal exhaust system.
It looks like protesting is unwelcome in Saanich, but threatening people with a weapon, driving with illegally modified license plates, and loud exhaust systems only warrant a ticket.
While being spoken to by the police, the passenger fingered the protesters and media who were documenting the driver's threatening behavior, but he drove away with only a ticket in hand.
What other types of deadly weapons can you threaten people with in Saanich and still leave the scene in possession of the weapon, your bad attitude, and only a ticket to show for your troubles?
