The family’s detainment marks the first confirmed detainment of an entire family in Oregon, advocates say.
Latkes, gelt, Maccabeer, menorahs, shopping, dancing, community, light - that’s Hanukkah 2025 in the Portland area.

Today someone in a black car sprayed me with BB gun pellets like from an airsoft gun or something while I was waiting at the bus stop. I haven't been able to shake the anger that they had fun at my expense. I'm pretty sure it's something they do often by the way they slowed down as if to pull over then drove off after. Either they always shoot pedestrians, bus riders, the visibly disabled, or the homeless. What really gets me is the unprovoked threat of violence towards a stranger. Like what is it supposed to do? You want poor people to be scared? Am I supposed to be afraid of being hurt and dying? My life sucks so bad I'm going to start carrying around a brick to throw if this happens again.

Gresham’s Grasshoppers
Sir Thomas Gresham’s will provided for the founding of Gresham College – the location of free public lectures (and which has previously featured on this blog). Gresham made the money that facilitated this through his career as a merchant and financier, serving Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I. However, it was perhaps a clever bit of investing that gave him his biggest income, which was his proposal to build the Royal Exchange at his own expense, in return for a share of the profits from the rental incomes of the shops that would be situated there.
Gresham’s original Royal Exchange opened in 1571, but was then burnt down in the Great Fire of 1666; its successor fared just as well, burning down in 1838. One feature survived both blazes: the weathervane of a golden grasshopper – Gresham’s crest. Another golden grasshopper can be seen a short walk away in Lombard Street, the site of Gresham’s former headquarters.
Why was the grasshopper Gresham’s symbol? A story was told that his ancestor, Roger de Gresham, was abandoned in a field of tall grass as a baby. The noise of a grasshopper attracted a woman to the spot, and she rescued the child. The more likely explanation, however, is that the grasshopper is simply a play on the similarity between the sounds of “grass” and “gres”.
