Which mulch?

A head-to-head garden mulch comparison puts cardboard, pine bark, cypress, black plastic, and bare soil to the test across 175 days, tracking changes in soil temperature, moisture, and weed pressure. The results show differences in performance, including which mulches reduce weeds and a few surprises that shift expectations about which materials actually hold up over time. The results show the best mulch for the garden. Clear standouts emerge and reveal which mulches stay stable, which fall behind, and which ones deliver benefits for vegetable gardens.

"Everybody is being crushed right now under this regime."

Hundreds of ILWU 10 longshore workers left their jobs shutting down ports in the Bay Area and joined the picket lines at the C&H Crockett owned sugar refinery owned by the Fanjul family. The Fanjul family control the sugar market in the US and have been using slave labor in both the Philippines and the Dominican Republic.

Strikers were joined by Filipino community activists who joined the picket line in the morning. Later in the day a scab hit picketers and the rank and file put pressure on the police to arrest the scab. There have been numerous hit and run by scabs going through the picket lines.

After the conflict today the company got a cease and desist order and are spending millions of dollars to bring in scabs to continue to run the operation and bust the union.

Workers also demanded that the the hatch of the Tai Herald sugar ship from the Negros Island in the Philippines be close and the scabs be removed who were moving the sugar cane from the Philippine island of Negros.

Workers also talked about why they were on the line and that the fight against scabs taking their jobs cannot be tolerated.

...and then they came for the women...

376 million women live in extreme poverty today, close to one in ten women worldwide. That number is the surface of something structural. Care work gets performed for free inside households, then gets paid badly when it enters the market, and the entire arrangement functions as a permanent subsidy to capital and to the state.

Who Pays for Care?
