John Kerry is considering advice not to officially accept his party's nomination until around early September, so that the Democrats will not be forced to start spending his $75 million Federal general election campaign check until then (around the same time the Bush gets his at the Republican convention).
under this scheme, Kerry can also continue raising money until around the same time as Bush is nominated.
Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.

Ideas for Action at you local movie theater for The Day After Tomorrow movie
The Day After Tomorrow is a movie that, while not realistic scenario of global warming, gives it as a cause and is a great opportunity to get global warming to be put in the forefront of public discourse where it belongs and get the necessary things done to reduce it to minimize its effects and
I suggest a day, how about May 30th, for everyone to meet in their circles of friends or neighborhoods and discuss two important things, what problems and possibilities we see with (1) where we get our food, and (2) how we live (paying rent, etc.).
We did this in my town and came up with some pretty creative things: bolstering food coops and squatting houses, but solutions will vary from city to city!

The road to Abu Ghraib was opened with deliberation and intent. According to a report by John Barry, Michael Hirsh and Michael Isikoff in Newsweek, "Bush, along with Defense Secretary Rumsfeld and Attorney General John Ashcroft, signed off on a secret system of detention and interrogation that opened the door to such methods. It was an approach that they adopted to sidestep the historical safeguards of the Geneva Conventions, which protect the rights of detainees and prisoners of war.
I believe in miracles. I believe that from somewhere in the control room of life's mysterious and inexplicable process, things are made to happen without regard for reason, logic, or cause and effect. If one were religious, one would speak of epiphanies and grace, of transformations immediate and stunning, precipitated by spiritual forces beyond our comprehension.

After years of meandering in the currents, the fee-demo issue has been swept
into fast-moving water. In recent months three congressional hearings have been held, including both oversight and legislative. Two radically different bills are currently in play, with one bill having passed the full Senate just days ago. On top of all of this, the biggest promoters of recreation user fees --the American Recreation Coalition-- has just publicly floated a proposal for the implementing of a greatly expanded, explicitly privatization-oriented, Phase Two "demonstration" program. ARC's latest proposal is one I've been tracking for several years and though lacking in Congressional support it has support at the very highest levels in the Bush Administration.

I accept that I have anger and pain but for some reason the happiness does not go away. I am grinning ear to ear with happiness. I feel like learning how to do cartwheels, do face painting, learning the latest in childrens jokes. I feel like spending hours telling all the dirty jokes I knew when I was 10. But mostly I feel like looking your eyes again. Rise up!
