Repair Cafe Roadshow
SATURDAY, April 13th
3:00-5:00pm
@ Garibaldi Branch Library
Register Now: www.heartofcartm.org/repaircafe

There are only about 100 “repair cafes” in the US and ours is among them! Lots of rural areas have fixit folks, but we are pretty lucky out here on the coast to have a Repair Cafe. Our talented repair volunteers are willing to share their knowledge and skills to reduce waste and save you money.

Here are some examples of the fun registrations we see:
>Reclining Chair – Spring has sprung.
>Heater – Light turns on but nothing happens.
>Boom Box – Belt to play cassette tapes needs to be installed but I can’t figure out where it goes. I took the old one out without taking pictures.
>Toaster – Only one side toasts.
>Vacuum – Suction is mostly gone.

Recognize any of these frustrations? REGISTER NOW to reserve your spot at a repair table: www.heartofcartm.org/repaircafe

Repair Cafe, hosted by Heart of Cartm, serves as a hub for individuals who value sustainability, creativity, and community engagement. The Repair Cafe isn’t just about fixing broken items; it’s about sharing knowledge and skills, too. When you bring your broken toaster or worn-out work pants to our workshop, you have the opportunity to learn HOW to repair with guidance from our skilled volunteers. At a Repair Cafe, practical skills are passed on and valuable resources are saved.

Bamboozle

Submitted By: codger817@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
A wonderful quote from Carl Sagan’s “Demon-Haunted World”

“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”

Incorporating elements from the Mississippi Delta, ragtime, country, swing and jazz, Robb ranks right up there with the heavy hitters, a player of dazzling skill and technique. Dan Forte of Vintage Guitar magazine hailed him as “one of the best players, on acoustic and electric, embracing a range of blues styles and then some.”

Gary Hobbs is a native of the Pacific Northwest. He has played professionally for over 4 decades and appears on over 60 recordings. Gary played with The Stan Kenton Orchestra from 1975 through 1977 and has performed with Randy Brecker, Bud Shank, Anita O’Day, Terry Gibbs, The Woody Herman Orchestra and many others. He’s played Carnegie Hall, Royal Festival Hall, Wolf Trap and the Kennedy Center, as well as festivals and clubs all over the world.

A Portland native, he is a music graduate of Western Washington University and the University of Washington. Dave has performed in a broad range of situations, from symphonic performances to studio and club work, as well as many jazz concerts and festivals around the country and in Europe. He is a favorite choice for the region’s many bandleaders and always in demand for his solid sound, time and feel, as well as his soloing abilities.

Gary Hobbs and Dave Captein will join Terry Robb for an evening of Electric Music – From Country and Blues to John Coltrane and Jimmy Hendrix! It’s a different side of Terry Robb!

Shamanic Breathwork

Submitted By: sbwceremonies@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
WHEN: April 12, 2024
6 – 10 PM (Please plan on arriving 10 -15 minutes, so
we can begin promptly.)

REGISTRATION: $88 (Limited number of partial scholarships

Shamanic Breathwork is a powerful modality to help us go deeply into non-ordinary states of consciousness. In these states it is possible to bring forth hidden insights, release stuck emotions, and to connect with the infinite expanse of psyche and soul.
The breath and the music within this ceremony facilitate deep healing, transformation and self-awareness and empower us to live aligned with our innate wisdom.

Responding to Tevis’ recommendation of: “Climate: The Movie”

Submitted By: genedieken@yahoo.com – Click to email about this post
Right up front: I believe in government responding in big, bold ways to an undeniable climate catastrophe.
The notion from this movie that what we are seeing is just some kind of cyclic variation over millennia or millions of years is essentially don’t-believe-your-lyin’-eyes gaslighting. You don’t have to believe in any science, you can simply look at your homeowners’ insurance. Actuaries are paid to see trends as they happen and assess risk. Florida, California, and other states are becoming homeowners’ policy reinsurers of reinsurers of insurers due to climate-based disasters previously unimagined in scope and cost.
I’ve previously pointed out that PGE in Portland upped its electricity rates by 18% in January to pay for undergrounding an electric transmission line to protect it from catastrophic, unimagined wildfires. That rate is likely to go up another 7% soon. portlandgeneral.com/news/2023-10-30-customer-price-changes-to-take-effect-january-2024
Do a Google search of the methane leakage disaster caused by producer neglect in the San Juan Basin of New Mexico, the most productive natural gas region in the world. Methane is 90 times more heat-absorbing than CO2. www.nrdc.org/stories/new-mexico-has-methane-cloud-visible-satellite-it-also-has-bold-climate-plans
NPR just featured a segment about sinking towns in Alaska due to the (once again unimagined) wide-scale thawing of permafrost. One of the components of permafrost is methane. What would you think if your family graveyard sank five feet in the last 20 years? The summer-long boreal forest fires in northern Canada last year were likely intensified by the presence of thawed-out methane. Unimaginable! www.npr.org/2024/04/03/1242451927/permafrost-underlying-many-remote-villages-in-alaska-is-thawing-and-thats-a-prob
Oil/gas is a much better-financed propaganda producer than big tobacco ever was, and it’s too bad that conservatives are so willing to inhale big drags of the smokescreen they are producing.
