3 stories converge.
I just want people to take a look at the following link because it shows what May Day looks like in the EU. Then run that thru your brain side by side with what we had today in downtown PDX.
San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom now aspires to succeed Arnold Schwarzenegger as California's Governor Greenwash II. Newsom recently came out for mega wave energy, meaning Pacific Gas'n Electric wave energy, which is adamantly opposed by environmental activists on California's North Coast, in Mendocino and Humboldt Counties. Newsom is virtually joined at the hip with PG&E, so he will most certainly be a lobbyist, as well, for LNG Terminals and pipeline in the rural state of Oregon, to bring natural gas to Northern California's huge natural gas market. The natural gas pipeline proposed to run through Oregon wilderness, from LNG Terminals in Oregon, is a joint project of PG&E and several other very related big energy corporations.

The economic crisis which has crashed down on society has already had and for a long time will have disastrous consequences for the lives of the masses, as every worker can see in his daily life or her work. The bourgeois economists themselves admit it: they do not know what the causes of the crisis are - satisfying themselves by blaming the greed of the bankers or excessive financial deregulation - and they do not know when it will end and give way to the long-awaited "economic recovery". The current crisis is the crisis of the capitalist mode of production, incapable of stopping itself, forced to produce always more commodities, at a certain point it comes up against the limits of the market.
Indicators of 1918-style virulence so far: rapid death (further down in grafs), high transmissibility, new information on cyanosis at head. Cyanosis means 'turning blue from lack of oxygen,' a characteristic of 1918 flu
Making sense of the recent developments in the automobile industry is a difficult process. If you look to the media or the government for answers, you'll receive a long-winded description of behind-the-scenes deals between Obama and his advisers, their Wall Street friends (the bond holders — big banks and hedge funds), and lastly the United Auto Workers (U.A.W.).
It seems odd hearing the U.S. President combing over the business details of Chrysler: whether or not a merger with the Italian automaker Fiat will happen; whether or not the banks and hedge funds will be willing to relinquish enough of Chrysler's debt; and whether or not labor will make major concessions. To grasp this odd dynamic one must first understand the motive to "restructure" Chrysler. According to the Obama administration, because Chrysler has produced more cars than people are currently able to afford as a result of the recession, the company has to be turned "inside out."

The crisis offers an historical chance to civilize an unbridled capitalism with reform policy. The future relation of market and state is the focus of attention.. Financial markets are characterized by herd behavior. Risk consciousness disappears.
A man's nature is always to seek out what is good. If a man is put in power that has no moral fiber, that man will use his position to accommodate his personal needs, rather than the needs of the people of whom he is sworn to serve. Remember, that not only is 'man by nature is a political animal', but Free Will unchecked is inherently evil.
You heard right.
I was hit by a car on 4/3/09 downtown during rush hour at around 5 pm. I was knocked unconscious due to hitting my head, so I have no memory of it. The hospital claimed to know nothing about the wreck. I am not from Portland and because I am new here, I need help.

This month animal activists are asking people to please contact Procter and Gamble to ask them to stop torturing animals in labs and then lying to the public about it. We are also asking that you join the boycott against P&G products - from Herbal Essence shampoos to Charmin toilet paper to Tide detergent to Iams pet food (that you should NEVER buy if you love your dog) to Crest toothpaste, and so many others. There are too many cruelty free alternatives to give these creeps any of your money. To find all of the P&G products to avoid, you can go here:

European researchers conducted a review of numerous studies of of anti-viral medications, which was then published in the prestigious medical journal Lancet on Jan. 19, 2006. According to this review of 51 randomized controlled trials, Tamiflu was useless against the avian flu and many other flus. Contrary to the CDC, their recommendation was not to use Tamiflu.

The sit-lie ordinance may be extended thru summer by city council next week, and bicycle lobbyists in Salem came up empty this session, after organizers were fired at local advocacy groups. Should tenants, transit riders, bike riders and homeless activists form a coalition to be more effective and win?
Wonder how it is that the Cowlitz Indian Tribe got it's recognition from the BIA in 2002? It had lots to do with this person, Jack Abramoff, that's who. If the DOJ was to check out Abramof's travel records they could place Abramoff in Toledo, Washington for November of 2001.

Kennedy and Worcester speak of dead pigs in plastic bags,
fecal lagoons, coughing children. Smithfield also has operations in Romania, Scotland (2), Mexico, and elsewhere, as well as 5 US states. The world's largest pig murdering facility is in Tar Heel, North Carolina.
Smithfield Foods is the cause of the swine flu plague. Simple as that. But who is this factory-farming death hole? Finding out is an interesting study in corporate green-washing, corporate propaganda, and the difference between that propaganda and the truth. So look deeply, and remember this pattern, and never again fail to spot it.

Iran Responds with Mixed Signals to Obama's Offer of a "New Beginning"
Interview with Chris Toensing, editor of the Middle East Report, conducted by Scott Harris
Happy May Day, comrades!
lawyers for poor americans again proposes that america formulate a federal task force designed to investigate every death row legal case in america !!! our inept and underfunded u.s. judicial system can no longer be trusted to execute the proper criminal !!!
The unbridled free market was an illusion that gave free rein to greed and speculation and the domination of financial markets. Shareholder value made the profits of shareholders absolute and short-term gain over long-term necessities.
The latest news--that only seven are dead of flu in Mexico-- is deceptive. There are seven dead of swine flu, officially, because seven autopsies have been transmitted to the WHO. What other misapprehensions can we expect from a corporate-owned press corps? And what does the outbreak portend?

![]() They have been outside a downtown supermarket, for a couple weeks. This 2 min video was filmed on Tuesday 4/29 in SW Portland
![]() ![]() This was a panel of four, with moderator, and a few guest speakers. There is a Q. n A. in the latter part of this 2:00 hour video. This was educational to me in that the violations and lack of respect for civil rights was very poignant as I listened to these various speakers. I heard logical questions raised about the separation of church and state and the rights and the abuse of civil (and human) rights and equality. There are serious concerns in these issues and this Symposium helps clarify some of the injustices and the need for correction and more understanding.

The National Grassroots Call-In Day to stop taxpayer subsidies for nuclear power and coal is less than 24 hours away! Please do everything you can to spread the word so that Capitol Hill telephones will be ringing off the hook tomorrow, April 30.
Troy Davis is on death row. He is accused of murder, but every single one of the non-police original witnesses against him has since recanted their story. There is no evidence against him, other than the testimony of people who later recanted and said that they were coerced by police into lying about his involvement. But because of a technicality, he has been unable to get a new trial. Do we need any more proof that there is no justice in America? This nation really sucks. But Troy Davis should not die because of it. Do what you can to save his life.

Pataxte habitat appears to have been marginalized on the Pacific coastal plain of Guatemala in the last decades of the 20th century by large scale agricultural mono-culture, especially cotton and sugar cane and cattle.Paradoxically many cacao growers do not even have pataxte growing on their land and providing shade and soil protection and biological diversity as was once the tradition.
Vice President Joe Biden said Wednesday he believes Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter would have "an open mind" on voting for a bill that makes it easier to form unions if a compromise emerges.

Please post information about Jostens today and alternatives for seniors and their families who want the graduation ceremony experience without tax-supported slavery and brutality or the toxic waste from the materials.
Politicians, bureaucrats, and intermediaries at all levels have failed. Capitalism is a lie. At the heart of the problem is property- people do not own freely their living and working spaces. This is a call for everyone everywhere to disregard their debts, cease paying property taxes, and organize directly for the things they need.
Mike Davis, whose 2006 book The Monster at Our Door warned of the threat of a global bird flu pandemic, explains how globalized agribusiness set the stage for a frightening outbreak of the swine flu in Mexico.
