Re: Gardeners: check your squash for borers!!

it was rather pathetic looking...and I figured there are two other plants to compensate. i'll try to take a look at the cukes tonight and see if i can salvage them. we just moved here, and last year was spent gutting the garden- this was the test year.... i'm thinking of planting lots of potatoes next year to try to improve the soil. how's the soil downtown?

Re: Heights: 4th of July Partygoer Attacked Man with Aluminum Baseball Bat Causing Severe Head Injuries

It's all a bit unfortunate I guess, I moved to the Heights because of it's family appeal. And I find it's also a little ironic, normally it's the inhabitants of an area that keep it down, here it seems like it's the local government/ local law enforcement... I think the Heights is in general a better place then downtown but they seem to get all the attention. I wasn't aware of the curfew, thanks for that bit of info...

I do realize that this would be difficult to enforce, but as I said, it wouldn't solve all problems might not even have any effect on the posted issue and there would have to be stipulations put on it, i.e. an age limit. But, I'm also thinking about the children that are going up and down the streets screaming and yelling at 1a.m. The kids that had a gun in Pershing Field a few weeks ago.

In reference to this and a few other issues in the Heights, I don't think it wouldn't necessarily be a bad idea to instate a curfew... I'm sure there would be a big uproar, but maybe it would help to impose control and order.

Re: The loud motorcycle tearing through Downtown this morning

motorcyles were tearing thru the heights all day sunday, some in packs and some individually. it's families up there with kids on the street - it's just not safe to have a dozen guys speeding down the streets and revving their motorcycles. when they drive like that they are less likely to pay attention to kids that have a tendency to run into the streets. and personally i moved to a family neighborhood so i didn't have to hear noise pollution from a bunch of guys on crotch rockets.

any recommendations for ants in the yard?
my driveway is covered with them, and so is the backyard.
i've put out ant traps and sprayed but i still feel overtridden with them...
and i have to be careful of what i use in the yard because i don't want to contaminate my vegetable garden.

Re: Garbage on the ground and sidewalks everywhere

the problem appears to be tri-fold.
people, garbage cans, and the street sweepers.
1. the street sweepers are ineffective and just push the garbage around. (and where does the citation money go from the alternate side of the street parking?)
2. there are either no garbage cans, or they are overfilled and spilling back onto the street.
and
3. people are lazy.

i think there needs to be more neighborhood associations for people who want to make there block into a neighborhood. make people take a stand and have a sense of pride and respect in where they live.
