Photo: Poke growin' up through some rusty ol' farm equipment... (This is Pokeweed, which the famous song "Polk Salad Annie" was based on. The leaves are boiled, with a couple water changes... tastes, somewhat, like greens... After the plant gets larger, it can become poisonous to humans. Animals don't seem to eat it...)

From AP, 9/31/07:
WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court opened its new term today refusing to get involved in two church-state disputes: one over religious organizations paying for workers' birth-control health insurance benefits, the other over an EVANGELICAL GROUP'S PLEAS TO HOLD RELIGIOUS SERVICES at a PUBLIC library.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco had ruled that public libraries can block religious groups like the Faith Center Church Evangelistic Ministries from worshipping in PUBLIC meeting rooms.
The Contra Costa library system in the San Francisco Bay area allows groups to use its facilities for educational, cultural and community-related programs.
‘Although religious worship is an important institution in any community, we disagree that anything remotely community-related must therefore be granted access to the Antioch Library meeting room,’ the appeals court concluded in a 2-1 decision.
Allowing WORSHIP SERVICES would amount to having TAXPAYERS SUBSIDIZE RELIGIOUS EXERCISES, argued the Contra Costa County, Calif., Library Board, which operated the facility in Antioch, Calif.
VC ritual public assault, declined.
