See, Click, Fix

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

Community Board 14 is now using SeeClickFix, a tool which will make it easy for anyone to report issues and problems to them, and make it easier for the fabulous folks at CB14 and other city agencies to respond, and act. Complaints can be submitted quickly and easily on their website , directly on SeeClickFix or even from your mobile phone.

Once you or anyone else reports a problem the entire world can see what it is, where it is and keep track of it’s resolution. A quick look at the map and you can see all the problems in your area, see if your issue is already being dealt with and offer your own input on other problems. We wish to make resolving problems easier, make the process more transparent and empower our residents to improve the community.

Please go here to get started. Thank you, CB14, for making it so easy!

A community board alert to its community and ready to map its concerns. Wow, that’s great. I hope CB 12 will adopt this idea.

What a great way for anonymous neighbors to complain about people and things they don’t like!

Ok Jaguar, what is your solution for making it easier to report health hazards, potholes, plant new street trees, and help improve our neighborhood. Sit in front of the computer all day and night and complain about everyone who tries to do something positive?

Oh I meant to add “anonymously” to that.

@William. I don’t get it either.Why the need to improve neighborhood is so often met with resistance from some.Does it have something to do with the fact that they have been too lazy to do it before all the outsiders came in and stirred things up?

It’s guilt?Or embarrassment? Or plain old fear of change?

In this short video, Douglas Trumbull, who led the visual effects team on the film, describes the inspiration for, and the making of, the Hades (opening) sequence.

Racism and Comic Book Readers September 8, 2010

RIP Glenn Shadix ("Otho" from Beetlejuice) September 8, 2010
Admittedly I know the character actor Glenn Shadix best not just as the snooty interior decorator from Beetlejuice, but from his action figure of said character (because I am nerdy). But Shadix has had a long career in TV and movies, including providing the voice for the mayor in Nightmare Before Christmas.Shadix made news in 2008 when a fire decimated his A […]
"Tribes: The Dog Years" A Post-Apocalyptic Treat September 8, 2010
Tribes: The Dog Years from IDW/Soulcraft Media delivers a powerful cinematic comic book experience. When you're done reading this 200-page original graphic novel, you feel as if you've just watched a movie. Inaki Miranda's art is amazing, and Michael Geszel has spun a tale that is like if Akira and 300 had a love-child.It is also a great examp […]
What Was The Best Batman Movie or TV Costume? September 8, 2010
Hands-down, Batman 1989 beats the current costume. Michael Keaton's chin for the win. Christian Bale's head looks like a football in that cowl; the whole point of the long bat-ears is to balance out the mask. Via Woosk […]
Coming home September 8, 2010
We've been back from vacation since Saturday night, but I'm having trouble getting back into the spirit of my blog. Probably because the vacation was so wonderful. we were at the Gaspe Peninsula, a part of southern Quebec that's about 1,000 miles from here and feels that far away from everywhere else. Canada has many parks, wilderness preserve […]
I was a HomeGoods Virgin… September 8, 2010
Over the labor day weekend I went with my boyfriend to visit his parents in Houston, TX. Aside from all the other fun things we did, I was able to experience a HomeGoods store for the very first time. I had heard about HomeGoods through other bloggers like LittleGreenNotebook, but since the closest one to […]

While we are on the subject of how movies are supposedly sending women dangerous messages, what about Boston psychologist Sharon Lamb's claim that comic book heroes are currently perverting their sense of masculinity?
