In March 2010 we moved here and they installed a new carpet and padding.
In July 2011 i tried to replace the padding under the carpet. It was stinking like naphtha, glue and something else. Back then i didn't know what something else was. I bought a new padding but it was smelling again like naphtha (which back then i didn't know what it was.) even worse that the one in place and i just returned it. Complicated but quite simple. The sweet smell comes from the organic glue the fiberboard is made of besides wood fiber. Probably residue from slaughterhouses. Blood and collagen. It turned into a dust and entered the padding on the low side. The red dots are where i injected deodorant a about a month ago and it dissolved the dust. Deodorant was made of water, propylene glycol and/or enzymes. Almost transparent, nothing red in it. I also used pounds of baking soda. But that one didn't go beyond the carpet.
For about 200 dollars in 2011 i bought self adhesive liners and sealed the floor. I did a good job since it's still there after two years and still intact. Nothing comes now in or out of the fiberboard. However, it was one year to late. It entered the padding and is still there. (In order to seal it you have to sweep the floor really, really good for dust so the liner would stick there. I have it on the hard floor in the kitchen area and it stays there for more than a year and is better then other sealants).
I would have benefited if i replaced the padding but what was bothering me, the naphtha smell was still there as they gave me a similar padding with extra naphtha. Again, i thought the fiberboard was made with formaldehyde.
Back then i forgot (i was too sick to the stomach) to take pictures of it and to this day it was my fantasy now came true to take pictures and here they are.
If anybody is curious about the smell, there's only one thing i would tell him/her. Be my guest.

Ciudăţenii cotidiene, Daily Weird
Azi am descoperit că vibraţia de la frigiderul uriaş de 25 ani se
transmite prin podea alături în baie unde face să vibreze uşile de sticlă
culisante de la cadă. Uşa de la baie este formată din două placaje care
dacă le apeşi uşor cu un deget se deformează cam un cm. Pereţii din
jurul uşii de la baie panourile adică nu sunt strânse bine în perete am impresia că le lipsesc nişte şuruburi şi
vibrează şi alea pe mai multe frecvenţe, toate joase în jur de 10 Hz.
Chiar la Bacău ţin minte podeaua de la bucătărie când călcam se mişca
puţin.
Am impresia că orice casă vibrează, mai ales astea de aici care sunt din schelet de lemn cu panouri de ghips dar dacă nici nu sunt strânse şuruburile alea de panouri sau lipsesc şuruburi... La balcon este o uşă culisantă de sticlă uriaşă cu o pereche statică total de 2 pe 2 metri care şi alea dacă le apeşi cu degetul se deformează. În dormitor este o debara cu uşi culisante din PFL de 5 mm cât peretele de lângă baie, care vibrează şi aia.
Ştiam de câteva zile că pereţii vibrează şi am făcut legătura cu apăsarea din ureche şi ameţeala şi dorinţa de a pleca din casă dar nu am făcut legătura cu uşile culisante de sticlă de la cada de la baie şi frigiderul decât ieri seara, când a pornit frigiderul şi am simţit apăsarea aia în ureche şi dorinţa de a ieşi afară.
Plus că frigiderul vibrează şi pe ultrasunete, tot timpul îmi ţiuie urechile. Deşi am izolat zona în care se face detenta freonului şi în genereal toată suspensia circuitului freonului cu cauciuc siliconic din ăla scump pentru izolat marginea la cada de baie. Scăzuse mult atunci, dar acum mi se pare că a revenit iar la un nivel maxim. Tot spatele frigiderului este închis acum cu PAL fonoabsorbant cam la 20 cm distanţă şi eu aud acum armonici mai joase de la ultrasunete poate peste 10 kHz cam la 20 dB la vreo 4 metri de el. Acum când scriu rândul acesta au scăzut brusc cam la jumătate. Oare să aibă vreo legătură cu maşinile vecinelor de scară care parchează totdeauna strâmb, dar numai în 2 sau 3 poziţii, mereu aceleaşi, cu precizie?
Deci azi am tot mutat frigiderul prin casă, este lângă peretele de la vecini ca să pun nişte PAL fonoabsorbant sub el şi în spatele lui şi ghici pe cine cred că am văzut ieşind de la scara vecină, cu perucă blondă, şi s-a urcat într-un minivan după care s-a urcat în altă maşină, o Hondă mai mică şi mai veche şi a plecat deşi am impresia că venise cu o a 3-a maşină, un Dodge gri din ăla nou lăsat pe jos?
Aceeaşi persoană cu care cred că am vorbit azi pe la 11:30 la Allied Waste Services, când am sunat să-i întreb de ce a venit camionul la tomberon a doua oară în aceeaşi zi?
A şi am uitat să spun, la un timp după ce m-am mutat am vrut să cumpăr alt frigider din banii mei dar agenţia imobiliară de la care închiriez apartamentul nu a fost de acord. Acest frigider valorează 0 dolari adică e un junk.
English:
Today i discovered that the vibration of the 25 years old huge refrigerator is transmitted through the floor and across the wall in the bathroom where it makes vibrate the glass sliding doors from the tube. The bathroom door is made out of 5mm fiberboard that easily deforms about 1 cm if you press lightly on it. The panels on the walls around bathroom door are not close enough to the frame and i am under impression there are missing or loose screws under paint, and they all vibrate on several frequencies, all under 10 Hz. I remember at Bacău, last place where i lived in Romania the floor in the kitchen was moving a little too when i was walking on it.
I am under the impression that any house vibrates, especially here where are made of wood frame covered with gypsum (drywall) panels especially if the screws are not tighten all the way or missing... At the balcony there is a huge sliding door paired with a static window that deform easily if you press with the finger right in the middle. In the bedroom there is a storage with huge sliding doors covering all the batthrom wall made of 5mm fibreboard that vibrate as well.
I knew for a few days now that the walls are vibrating but i couldn’t make the link with the pressure in the ears and dizziness and the urge to live the place until last night when the fridge’s compressor started and i started feeling the pressure and the need to live.
Today i moved the fridge around so i can install some fonoabsorbant (loose fiberboard) panels underneath and around the back of it and than guess who i think i saw leaving from the other entrance of the building, where my neighbours on the other side of the wall next to where the fridge is are, with blonde wig and got into a minivan than switched into an older, smaller Honda and left although i think she came into one of those newer, low, grey Dodge?
The two entrances and the corresponding apartments do not communicate, at least at the upper level, where i live, from what i know. The weirdest part is the apartment right beneath me is vacant since last September with the blinds tightly covering the windows so no light can go in our out and i didn't see anybody getting in or out either for so many month.
I forgot to say that shortly after i moved here i wanted to buy another fridge from my own money but the real estate agency that i rent from did not agree although this fridge is not worth any money, being a total piece of junk.
There is at least one distinguishable harmonic from the @4 Hz main frequency but i don't have the necessary instruments to investigate what that frequency is. Maybe if i had a video editing program installed, maybe i should try download one. Probably is a frequency most harmful when vibrating out of phase with Earth electric resonance frequency, the so called Schumann frequency, at 7.89 Hz, that would be the double of what i'm counting using the clock from the wall? The sliding door have a metal frame as well so...
Maybe that's why they're slamming the doors for... To kick start a vibration that is out or in phase with Earth electric standing waves?
Now i read in wikipedia that 60 Hz is the eighth harmonic of the Schumann. Why in Europe they use 50 Hz and in the United States 60? Which one is healthier?

Somebody please tell me what the hell is going on...

Keep Portland Weird

"Wyrd is a concept in Anglo-Saxon culture roughly corresponding to fate or personal destiny. The word is ancestral to Modern English weird, which retains its original meaning only dialectically."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wyrd
Ethics in Germanic Neopaganism are guided by a concept of personal ørlög or wyrd, encompassing the notions of both fate and luck. The belief in Wyrd — a concept of fatalism or determinism,[12] similar to some Graeco-Roman concepts of destiny is a commonly held belief amongst most Germanic Neopagans.

Kaiser, Khazaria, קֵיסָרְיָה and Lenin
The words have memory. One can understand history following the words throughout it. I think i'm not mistaking when i say a language includes during its evolution parts of the history of the people who spoke it.
I did once a search on the word Kaiser in the phone directory in the Portland area, where i live. There are hundreds, with (spelling) variations like Keiser / Kaizer / Keyser / Kyser / Kiser / Kizer / Kaiser and probably others. There is a city just north of Salem, the capital of Oregon, called Keizer. One of the first if not the first medical insurance company in the United States, still a major one today, is called Kaiser Permanente. And i told myself, there's got to be something about it. And i did a little research and i sent emails approximately more than a year ago to some of my friends with the results. Now i'm going to post them here together with more information.
There is a city in Israel called קֵיסָרְיָה.Pronounced Keisarya. Caesaria in English. Built by Greeks, renamed by Romans in honor of Caesar.
There was a country between the 618 AD and 1050 AD named Khazaria north of Caucusus Mountains, between Caspian and Black sea. (Where the word Caucasian is coming from, of course!)

There was a region in Russia and Soviet Union where Volga Germans lived where most of these people named Kaiser came from in Portland area. During Soviet Union it was called just that, Volga German Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. On Volga river, of course, in the heart of what it was Khazaria, shown in the map above, some 600 years before. You can find the story of how they got there or how they got out of there in Wikipedia or in other sources.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volga_Germans.
Basically, Catherine the Great, a German princess, 6 month after she maried Peter III, also German, assassinated him and took the throne. In 1792 and 1793 she published manifestos inviting foreigners to come to Russia giving them land and many privileges. The settlers came mainly from Bavaria, Baden, Hesse, the Palatinate and the Rhineland, over the years 1763 to 1767. To make a long story short, in the end, starting about 150 years ago, they all came to the US.

There was Deutsches Kaiserreich and now there are the common words Keiserreich and Keiser in German.
There is the name Casimir in Polish and the name Cazan (that i know of) in Romanian.
I think the reader can get the idea by now. There's always google to help.
"Lenin's mother, Maria Alexandrovna Ulyanova (born Maria Alexandrovna Blank) (Russian: Мария Александровна Ульянова) (6 March [O.S. 22 February] 1835 — 25 July [O.S. 12 July] 1916)[1] was one of the six children of Alexandr Blank (born Israel Blank), and Anna Ivanovna Groschopf, the daughter of a German father, Johann Groschopf, and a Swedish mother, Anna Östedt."
Lenin was born in the town of Ulyanovsk, formerly Simbirsk, located on the Volga River.
However, the name Ulyanov may very well come from Ulus of Jochi, the name of the Golden Horde. Lenin by his father was one quarter tatar. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Horde
German, Tatar, Swedish, Jewish, watever, similar to the prince and princess or better said emperor and empress mentioned above, he had very little or no Russian blood in him.
In 1995, in Portland, Oregon, i met a Romanian gentleman named Ioan Mladin. He taught me his version of Socrate's paradox. He also told me that "they" (he never said who where they) want to build the communism @here. Back then i did not know what to believe and i forgot.
Cristian Ioanide, ex director of the publication Romanian Times in Portland died not long after he put in one of his editorials the information that a large number of the people in Oregon are descendants of Volga Germans. http://www.romaniantimes.org/ioanide.html. That's where and when i found out the first time and i had to tell it to a German Romanian American guy i know around here.
Couldn't find the article in the Romanian Times archive. I will keep searching for the article where he wrote that. He was a friend of mister Mladin and i also met him once. That night when he hit a pole in the courtyard of Sfânta Maria Romanian orthodox church in Portland with his Mercedes pressing on the accelerator instead of brakes after he left and we were all watching the Romanian movie Balada.
Here is the map that shows where most of the Volga Germans are settled in the United States
And let's not forget that the fiberboard that the floor in the apartment where i live and in the one beneath is made, which is the main source of formaldehyde that i had to breathe continuously was made by a a company named Kaizer or a variation of it. It's under the carpet right now and i really regret i didn't take a picture of the logo that was printed on one of the boards when i sealed it with self adhesive shelf liners.
If i hadn't have that continuous stomach pain for 10 years until 2006 and didn't know any of these i think i would be much happier.
Here is the one of 2000 US census map. But unfortunately, we don't see any Khazars here, only Germans.
