oftentimes, educators only "talk" a good game (treasurehouse indeed...)
Teach-in at PSU
This unsubstantiated report is presently being run on the experimental music site
http://www.tentacle.org, and I'm trying to figure out whether or not it's for real.
I can't find any other mention of this online, but I'm familiar with the author and I've never known him to do a culture-jamming Onion-style piece before. Sounds too crazy to be true; but then, most true things sound that way.
The "Rendlesham Files," which were finally published on the Internet Sunday, contain eyewitness accounts by U.S. Air Force officers at a military base close to Rendlesham Forest, near Ipswich in eastern England, who saw a brilliantly lit object land in the forest in December 1980.
As mentioned before the activists arrested in august/september from the road bloackades at the borg timber sale are bing charged, despite the fact the district attorney filed a no complaint at their first araignment. Their new ariagnments are on the 17th of december.
The new news is: all four are being charged, no felonies left.

A coalition of Canadian peace groups today announced their intention to send an international team of volunteer weapons inspectors into the United States later this winter. "On the basis of President Bush's guidelines, it is clear that the current U.S. administration poses a great threat to global security"
Portland, Ore...Author Ursula K. LeGuin will lead a march from Pioneer Square to Representative David Wu's office this Friday, December 6th, at 5pm, and will deliver a petition against war on Iraq. The Portland Peaceful Response Coalition (PPRC) is hosting the demonstration as a part of a regular weekly rally and march. The PPRC has been holding weekly rallies against war since the US bombing of Afghanistan in October of 2001.
If words can break the frozen soul (Kafka), these words of Mark Twain summarizing the war momentum qualify. If not, perhaps we can face the prophetic words of Isaiah 64: "We all fade like a leaf and our iniquities like the wind take us away." Denying collective identity is an evasion encouraged by Reagan and Thatcher. Ethically, no nation is alone as no individual is alone. Theologically, the myth of invulnerability is pretending to be God.
"The come-of-age citizen capable of personal judgment is inthe center of our constitutional- and social order, not the homo oeconomicus. This citizen is in gainful life. However gainful life is only a part of social life. We are badly advised when we mistake this part of sociallife for the whole. Vocational life is enormously important but is only a part. When education ignores this, a form of illiteracy is encouraged." This address is translated from the German.

There were three causes for the massive structural damage that led to ultimate failure of the World Trade Center: the impact of the aircraft, the subsequent explosion, and most importantly, the raging fire caused by the vast amounts of jet fuel. Burning fuel must have also cascaded down floor openings to the levels below.
There has been discussion on http://2changetheworld.info around the question of whether or not there is a proletariat in the USA. Are there really people here that have nothing to lose but their chains? Some claim that there is no real proletariat in the USA, but when I look around me I see differently.
It'd be nice if people kept posting poetry...
Anyway, this is my second attempt at something nice. I hope you like it...

Four out of ten American women "shop" at Walmart at least weekly, and the trendy go there for fashion bargains. Are they aware that the average Walmart "associate" is a woman who makes $7.50 an hour with no medical insurance benefits? Do they care?
The following is a very interesting "dialogue" between Raise the Fist webmaster, Sherman Austin, and an FBI goon. This is really like something out of "Enemy of the State" or "Minority Report."

For five years, Oliverio Martinez has been blind and paralyzed as the result of a police shooting. Now he is at the center of a U.S. Supreme Court case that could determine whether decades of restraints on police interrogations should be discarded. The blanket requirement for a Miranda warning to all suspects that they have the right to remain silent could end up in the rubbish bin of legal history if the court concludes police were justified in aggressively questioning the gravely wounded Martinez while he screamed in agony.
Military - Law enforcement agencies are cracking down
The World Health Organization reports that 3 million people now die each year from the effects of air pollution. This is three times the 1 million who die each year in automobile accidents. Governments go to great lengths to reduce traffic accidents by fining those who drive at dangerous speeds, arresting those who drive under the influence of alcohol, and even sometimes revoking drivers' licenses. But they pay much less attention to the deaths people cause by simply driving the cars.

The Bush family connections go back to 1984 when Jeb Bush began a close association with Camilo Padreda, a former intelligence officer with the Batista dictatorship overthrown by Fidel Castro. Jeb was then chairman of the Dade county Republican party and Padreda--party finance chairman--had earlier been indicted on a $500,000 embezzlement charge along with a fellow exile, Hernandez Cartaya. Charges were dropped after the CIA stated Cartaya had worked for them. Padreda later pleaded guilty to defrauding the housing and urban development department of millions of dollars during the 1980s.

"War in Iraq: Why Now and at What Cost?" Teach-in planned at Portland State University
This is the analysis and text of the homeland security act. It is instrumental in consolidating executive power over the "homeland" through the centralization of the government's already existing structures, and as a department will also be given "necessary funds". This bill basically arms Bush and his posse with control over how we move and interact that is being focused like light through a magnifying glass. It is an intentionally opaque structure. We won't know what it's doing unless it wants us to know.
