Word for the day… it ain’t no “fish” tale

I found this word while reading an article about Kevin Costner’s Centrifugal Separator, an invention that is being tested in the Gulf oil spill. The CS is intended to separate oil from water in the hopes of helping to clean up the environmental disaster.

weir (noun)
1. a fence or enclosure set in a waterway for taking fish
2. a dam in a stream or river to raise the water level or divert its flow

Etymology: (before 12th century) Middle English [were], from Old English [wer]; akin to Old Norse [ver] a fishing place, Old High German werien, werren=to defend

“weir.” Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary. 2010.

This is why using oil is still a BAD idea…

“An oil pipeline operated by Chevron Pipe Line Co leaked at least 18,000 gallons (68,100 liters) of crude oil into the Delta National Wildlife Refuge in Louisiana, the U.S. Coast Guard said on Tuesday.

The leak, discovered by a contractor shortly after midnight, discharged into a canal 10 miles southeast of Venice, Louisiana, and investigative and cleanup teams were on scene, the Coast Guard said in a news release.

A barge working for Exxon Mobil Corp was driving long pipes called “spuds” to anchor the barge in place, and one may have hit the pipeline operated by Chevron, a Coast Guard spokesman said.

Chevron shut down the affected section of pipeline and started efforts to minimize environmental impact, said a news release issued by Chevron, the Coast Guard and state of Louisiana.”

Weekly goals for 11/22/09…Feel your Blessings!

Thanksgiving 2008
Thanksgiving 2008

Hello dearies,
may we all be very thankful for the basics: a home to live in, enough food to eat, our health and the love our family and friends. What could be more bountiful than having these basics which so many people in the world aren’t blessed with having?

Perhaps we could invite a lonely neighbor to our feast, contribute food to organizations that feed the homeless, serve up Thanksgiving Day dinner at one of these charities or donate money to your favorite organization at this time of year. It would light up someone’s life and warm you inside knowing you are “spreading the wealth”, so to speak.

My goals for this week are:

Personal-
Prepare 15 holiday calendars (to be mailed out later.)
Finish decorating for the holidays.
Doctors appt on Fri Nov 27th.
Hopefully see my mom on Nov 24th.
And, of course, prepare a half-turkey/half-vegetarian meal for Thanksgiving!

Professional-

31 Days of Notable Women- Winona LaDuke- Native American activist

Winona LaDuke (Anishinaabe) is an internationally respected Native American and environmental activist. She began speaking about these issues at an early age, addressing the United Nations at the age of 18, and continues to devote herself to Native and environmental concerns, as well as political and women’s issues. LaDuke also served as Ralph Nader’s vice-presidential running mate on the Green Party ticket in the 1996 and 2000 presidential elections.
