World trade is now a game in which the US produces dollars and the rest of the world produces things that dollars can buy... like oil. This is the story of the Petrodollar, the true Governor General of the Empire, and the force that makes the US supreme.

Subject: Made In Oregon stores are a JOKE
(with an Action Item to follow)

I am ever so sorry to have to report this. Someday, will nothing be left that is sacred? I recently had an experience that shook me to the core. OK, it wasn't the police arresting me, again, because I had a video camera documenting their misconduct, nor was it a close call with a rattlesnake or a black widow spider. Not at all, nothing like that. Very recently I became a consumer at a place I thought I could trust, a Made In Oregon store. Here is my brief & sad tale...

"I think this is the worst government the US has ever had in its more than 200 years of history. It has engaged in extraordinarily irresponsible policies not only in foreign policy and economics but also in social and environmental policy," said the 2001 Nobel Prize laureate for Economics George A. Akerlof, who teaches economics at the University of California in Berkeley.

"Now is the time for (American) people to engage in civil disobedience. I think it's time to protest - as much as possible," the 61-year-old scholar added.

The largest source of funding to US college universities is serving as a blacklisting agent to curb open debate. Dem Pres. candidate Lieberman and Lynne Cheney founded the American Council in 1995. **Any more proof needed that Lieberman is not only a republican but a neo-con and sleeping with the Bush White House?**

The People's Co-op is one of the premiere examples of green-building in Portland. Despite the heat of summer, the store has been quite cool and comfortable thanks to a passive heat exchange system that works by circulating air through a pipe that goes 300 feet under ground. In the winter, rainwater will be collected in a reservoir and used for grey water purposes, such as in the toilets. The exterior siding and the porch's large pillars are of wood recycled from an old dock in Seattle. The cob walls offer insulation, and are decorated with delightful bas relief plants, trees, and sensuous, root-like curves.

Poor Prez. Top Gun is to be sympathized with. You see, the whole infamous, bogus "Niger Uranium" claim was all an honest mistake that could have happened to anyone.

"We see ourselves attacked on the social rights of wage-earners.. Agenda 2010 destroys social securities..The stability criteria of the European Central Bank should be met at any price so Europe is victorious in the positional competition.

I stopped by the Red and Black to see what was up the other day and saw a stack of something called "The Green Zine" on the lit table. I always like to check out what people leave there so I picked it up and sat down with it. Turns out it's a new newspaper about local issues and events, and it's being produced by the Portland Metro Chapter of the Pacific Green Party. Now I'm not much one for electoral politics -- I don't see the point except at the very local level, and even there we need to overthrow it, not reform it -- but I do appreciate when people organize to inform the public about things that the corporate media ignores, and that's what the Green Zine is doing, and doing well in this first issue.
