November 3, 2018, Attention Portland, Oregon



San Francisco, California is the most dangerous city in the world.  It consists of individuals that steal your personal belongings and rape you of your life starting when you are young.  Then those individuals get the City to pay for their homelessness and brag about how they don't have to pay for a thing.  Those individuals brag that the city of San Francisco requires them to do nothing and at the same exact time extends their sympathy and compassion.  Those individuals brag that they can get three square meals at Glide Memorial.  Those individuals never change.  I am 53 years old and this is what my brother whom is 59 years old bragged about before attempting to take the last advantage.  The last advantage that those individuals take is your home.  Those individuals only have to act all tired and hungry and should you allow them to stay at your home they first try and manage to stay for 30 days you have to have them evicted.  My brother only visited for two or three days however I had to call the Cops yesterday November 2nd, 2018 due to the fact that he grabbed my head with my hair in his hands and with violence shook me.  Upon the arrival of the Cops they asked how long he had been here and I said that he had just showed-up the hour before and I had asked him how long he would be staying as I was having nightmares following his last visit.  This along with the fact that his daughter having to put her dog down and the fact he was blaming me for not knowing where his phone was and the fact that he had no money caused the rift however while answering the questions for the Cops they informed me of that 30 day thing.

So, for those of you that are unaware that my brother has been homeless since or for as long as I can remember and yet during that time many times my mother rented apartments and even took him in to our home in the Avenues.  Interesting though, my mother is died on January 11, 2017 and I moved home because I was tired of being alone and I had been trying to get back home anyhow, especially since I thought I could be company for my mother in her golden years.  Due to unexpected circumstances I did not make it home in time, that has lasting effects and yet my brother did not care.  He screamed at me for not being there, he hollared at me about Sarah, Philip and Hugh Meakin (my mother Melba M. Meakins second family) and how they took everything which they did however at the same time he wanted me to go downtown and press charges against them for robbing him of his money that my mother had left him.  Basis is that my brother is a user.

San Francisco should have done something years ago however he is not a city kid like me, turns out that he was born in Portland, Oregon.  That is a bit of information that slipped-out of his mouth, that changes things as should you be born in a town that doesn't not encourage diabolical behavior than you don't commit it.  Finally, I know where my older brother Edward K. Placek III and Tamara Sue Placek got their fowl and user behavior, Portland, Oregon, therefore Portland, Oregon should pay all the costs that both of those individuals have cost the city of my birth.  I was born in San Francisco, California on April 29th, 1965 at
Childrens Hospital on California Street in the Richmond District.  This is an all points bulletin and should be considered to be finally on the record.  For all intents and purposes I hold the City of Portland in Oregon responsible for the damages against my life.  My name is Karen Anastasia Placek.  Please contact City Hall in San Francisco to pay the retributions.  Thank you.

Notation to the above said is fact:  Tamara and Edward Placek if homeless are meant to go to the town of Napa so that they may rehabilitate with all the facilities available to them within a small radius.  Calistoga with its mud baths and calming style of relaxing as the hot springs make for a good environment to recover from whatever Portland, Oregon gifted their young lives.  My city, the City of San Francisco has never been equipped to accommodate the needs of such homeless thereby leaving our city vulnerable to all of the acting-out i.e. negative behavior that my older siblings have exhibited since my birth as their main complaint and it is a complaint in constant is that I ruined their father and mothers marriage.  Saying bluntly for as long as I can remember "if you weren't born our lives would have been great as before you were born we were just fine."  This mental discontentment of my older siblings has been a horror as I never know or knew what they would say to me, in fact should I have said anything as a child they would quickly spout "Sticks and stones can break your bones but words can never hurt you", that was a consistent message that poured from not only them but their friends too.

To those that do not believe that this is the agreement of the times which is back in the late 1960s than please feel free to read more about the town of Napa and the surrounding towns that provide relaxation, warmth and in basic the world renowned fashion of the "love-in".  San Francisco has been occupied with such responsibility that my town has had to grow in such a path that our tax dollars never go into our Parks or the growth of any other projects that provide healthy outlets for ourselves.  As a child many came to San Francisco and since that time many that had been unacceptable to their towns, cities or nations have flooded to my city by the bay, in aspect, empathy and in the name of love itself I am grateful that those people had a place to establish more than a life of fear and rejection however I believe that their still should be some accountability to price-fit the towns, cities and/or Nations or Countries as our dollars have worn thin at times.  To engage 'Measures' to fit our International City to charge the United Nations may be a viable option as that organization does run to every humanitarian crisis around the world.  To employ their bank account as our Checking Account would provide their organization a better status as that Organization would be even more capable of knowing immediately if the Human Rights Violation has been violated and faciltate their offices to be more ready-at-hand and not have to wait for the wave of genocide and/or those chemical deaths that I have had to witness reported on both the National and Local News.  To say that the homeless in general are meant to all be accommodated by the City of Napa is in fact the truer statement as that is what I was taught growing-up, and for further reading please refer to the medical facility which is a Mental Health Hospital founded in 1875.  As a reminder the United States of America had another facility east of  the Rockies that President Roosevelt, F.D.R. visited for a spell, that was a warm springs referred to as "Rehabilitation Center" so there should not be any stigma attached to such treatment.

San Francisco is not outfitted with these incredible mud baths, hot or warm springs to accommodate the treatments that appease the human body with relaxation.  To deny this is to be ignorant to our countries past and to not acknowledge the facts, there is more assistance than just housing, medication and/or a life on the streets of San Francisco as it was sworn upon long ago in our Country that the natural mineral hot springs found in prized locations made well the human soul and medicated the human heart by healing the mind.

Perhaps it is the lithium that naturally shows up in the water at the natural hot and warm springs that causes people at-large to heal "Lithium is one of 14 naturally-occurring minerals found in the water at Iron Mountain Hot Springs. Lithium (Li), No. 3 on the Periodic Table, is the 33rd most abundant element in the Earth's crust but occurs naturally only in compounds" and you may read more of that detail at https://www.ironmountainhotsprings.com/mineral-spotlight-lithium/ (see below for more information) as it shows its prowess on the site itself as a "Mineral Spotlight" (see below) however the balance of a place to go with the proper facility to facilitate the healing with modern techniques certainly would advantage those that have become overwhelmed with life.  "Modern health resort and spa design also makes use of the psychological effect" read more at https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/e680/c8abeb9826036ee44b6b188a5d0f630314e4.pdf


Mineral Spotlight: Lithium https://www.ironmountainhotsprings.com/mineral-spotlight-lithium/

"Lithium is one of 14 naturally-occurring minerals found in the water at Iron Mountain Hot Springs.
Lithium (Li), No. 3 on the Periodic Table, is the 33rd most abundant element in the Earth’s crust but occurs naturally only in compounds.
At the end of the 19th century, Lithia Springs, Georgia, was a popular spa for such visitors as Mark Twain, the Vanderbilts and four U.S. presidents because of its lithium waters, which are still bottled and sold today. Recent research suggests unexpected benefits of lithium for human health, especially brain, mental and emotional health.
Researchers speculate that lithium promotes the health, growth and resilience of neurons. Lithium is the most effective treatment for Lou Gehrig’s disease. It has been used to treat mental illness, eating disorders, blood disorders, headache, alcoholism, epilepsy, diabetes, liver disease, kidney disorders, arthritis, overactive thyroid and asthma.
Your body contains about 7 milligrams of lithium. While there is no Recommended Dietary Allowance for the element, it is considered safe up to five milligrams a day. In addition to drinking water, nutritional lithium comes from grains, vegetables, mustard, kelp, pistachios, dairy, fish, and meat.
Soaking in Iron Mountain Hot Springs provides a safe and relaxing means of enjoying a lithium lift. The mineral is absorbed through your skin in small quantities; as a result you’ll feel calmer and happier."

At Warm Springs, Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd president of the United States found the strength to resume his political career and a positive outlet for his own personal struggle with polio through creation of the Warm Springs Foundation. Roosevelt returned to use the therapeutic waters at Warm Springs every year, except 1942, from his first visit in 1924 until his death there in 1945.  Influenced by his experiences in this rural area, President Roosevelt developed New Deal programs, such as the Rural Electrification Administration.  He also carried on important official duties when he was there.

Warm Springs Historic District is adjacent to the small Georgia town that is its namesake. By the late 18th century, settlers came to the area. The population grew with the advancement of the railroad, and by the 1830’s, it was the site of a summer resort and a village. In 1893, Charles Davis constructed the Victorian 300-room Meriwether Inn with resort pools, a dance pavilion, bowling alley, tennis court, and trap shooting. The water flowing from the hillside of Pine Mountain was used to create the resort pools. By the turn of the 20th century, the town of Warm Springs and the resort were in decline.

George Foster Peabody, a prominent businessman and philanthropist in New York, purchased the property in 1923. Peabody shared the story of a young polio victim’s recovery after bathing in the swimming pools at Warm Springs with his friend, Franklin D. Roosevelt, the young politician paralyzed from the waist down in 1921 from polio. Roosevelt arrived at the resort on October 3, 1924 hoping to find a cure. The next day, he began swimming and immediately felt an improvement. For the first time in three years, he was able to move his right leg.  Because Roosevelt was nationally prominent, his visit assured publicity for Warm Springs. A syndicated Sunday newspaper supplement featured his experience. By his return in 1925, other patients were coming in the hope of a cure.  In 1926, he bought the resort property and 1,200 acres from George Peabody for some $200,000.  Seeking medical advice and contributions from his friends, he organized the nonprofit Warms Springs Foundation in 1927 turning property over to the foundation.

The Warm Springs Foundation created what became the first and for many years, the only hospital devoted solely to the treatment of poliomyelitis victims in the world.  The organization became the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, the sponsor of the “March of Dimes,” and was instrumental in promoting the development of a cure for polio. Roosevelt continued for the rest of his life to be actively involved with the foundation, participating in decisions regarding management of the hospital at Warm Springs, including tearing down the old Meriweather Inn to replace it with safer, more accessible buildings for the handicapped.

Although never again able to use his legs fully, by 1928, Roosevelt regained enough physical and emotional strength to return to his great passion, politics. After supporting Al Smith for the presidency at the National Democratic Convention, Roosevelt, at Smith’s behest, accepted the nomination for governor of New York, the position Smith was vacating.  Roosevelt narrowly won.  This victory set him on his path to the White House. Roosevelt’s success in the governorship brought him overwhelming reelection in 1930 and the Democratic Presidential nomination in 1932. His public obligations from 1929 to 1933 limited his visits to Warm Springs to about a month each year.

As President-elect, during the Depression winter of 1932-33, he went twice to Warm Springs staying in his new house. Finished in 1932, the Little White House is a modest, six room one-story cottage. The wooden building features a four-columned central temple form portico.  The slightly off-center entrance hall cuts through the combination living room dining room and opens into Eleanor Roosevelt’s bedroom on the left and into a narrow side hall on the right. The living room/dining room is glassed-in on the west side with high windows flanking French doors that open onto a sundeck. Roosevelt enjoyed the serenity of the sundeck’s view overlooking a heavily wooded ravine.

Roosevelt’s personal secretary used a bedroom off the living room to the right.  The two bathrooms are located between the kitchen and the secretary's bedroom and connecting Franklin and Eleanor's bedrooms. The only readily visible adaptations of the house to Roosevelt's infirmity are the flat sills and the raised bathroom fixtures. Some of the furniture is from the Val-Kill workshops.

Even while President Roosevelt fought the Great Depression and led the nation through World War II, he still dedicated time to the Warm Springs Foundation. Frequently, important national figures and cabinet members accompanied Roosevelt to Warm Springs, so he could meet with board trustees while continuing to run the nation and carry out his own personal physical therapy. He met with the patients and shared Thanksgiving Dinner with them in the hospital’s Georgia Hall, whenever he could.  FDR claimed that observations in the Warm Springs area inspired certain New Deal programs.  He noticed that electric rates were exorbitantly higher in Warm Springs than in Hyde Park. His enthusiasm for the Rural Electrification Administration (REA), which strove to bring electric power to rural areas at reasonable rates, may have begun at Warm Springs. Roosevelt symbolized the connection by signing the REA bill into law at the Little White House.

Roosevelt was only able to go to Warm Springs for infrequent short visits during World War II.  He returned to Warm Springs for the last time near the end of the war in March of 1945. Just back from the Yalta Conference, he planned to work on the address with which he would open the United Nations Conference. He also entertained neighbors and conferred with two important guests, Sergio Osmena, the president of the Philippines, to whom he gave assurances of future independence, and Henry Morgenthau, secretary of the treasury. On Thursday, April 12, he planned to attend an afternoon barbecue given by his Warm Springs friends and then a minstrel show at the hospital. That afternoon, Roosevelt seated in a favorite chair near the fireplace, posed for a portrait by Madame Elizabeth Shoumatoff. Suddenly, he suffered a massive stroke. Carried from the room into his bedroom, he died later that same afternoon. The “Unfinished Portrait” is on exhibit at the historic site.

Warm Springs is a place of pilgrimage for many. Democratic presidential candidate John F. Kennedy spoke here during his 1960 race, and in 1976 Jimmy Carter opened his general election campaign in front of the building. The Georgia Warm Springs Foundation granted the property to the State of Georgia. The State created the memorial commission, a self-perpetuating body, opening the Little White House to the public in 1948. In 1980, Roosevelt’s Little White House and Historic Pools and springs became part of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources State Parks and Historic Sites. Presently, Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute, adjacent to the Little White House, is managed by the Department of Labor and is a vocational rehabilitation center treating persons with head, neck, and back injuries, any type of joint or muscle disorder, stroke patients, arthritis, post-polio syndrome and a wide range of birth defects. Today, the Roosevelt’s Little White House remains the same as it was the day the president died.
