McDonald's Destroys Rainforests, Eat There and So Do You
http://www.rainforestportal.org/issues/2006/04/mcdonalds_destroys_rainforests_1.asp
<http://www.rainforestportal.org/issues/2006/04/mcdonalds_destroys_rainforests_1.asp>
April 08, 2006 McDonald's Destroys Rainforests, Eat There and So Do You A new report (pdf) accuses McDonald's of destroying rainforests. Greenpeace traced soya grown on land that once was rainforest to an animal feed producer whose chickens are processed into Chicken McNuggets and other McDonald's products. "Fast food giants like McDonald's are trashing the Amazon for cheap meat. Every time you buy a Chicken McNugget you could be taking a bite out of the Amazon." The production of soya is having severe environmental impacts in the Amazon; indeed, much is illegal due to failure to protect rainforests when developing the land. Given Greenpeace's dramatic flash campaign materials, I predict an interesting, educational and effective
campaign ahead - start by taking action now!

Here are additional facts from the report regarding the threat to the Amazon posed by soya and other agricultural production:
"Soybean production in the Brazilian Amazon states grew approximately 60 percent between 1998 and 2002, and the cattle herd nearly doubled from 26.2 million in 1991 to 51.6 million in 2001, making Brazil the second largest soybean exporter and the world’s major beef exporter... This increase in production has transformed the agricultural sector into a serious threat to the Amazon environment... By 2050, current trends in agricultural expansion will eliminate a total of 40 percent of Amazon forests, including at least two-thirds of the forest cover of six major watersheds and 12 eco-regions."

Don't Let Congress Ruin the Internet

Right now Congress is pushing a law that would abandon the First Amendment of the Internet -- a principle called "network neutrality" that preserves the free and open Internet. Congress needs to hear from you today or they will hand over control of what you do online to companies like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast.

Politicians are trading favors for campaign donations from these companies. They're being wooed by people like AT&T's CEO, who says "the Internet can't be free." Sign this petition to tell your elected representatives to protect Internet freedom now.
Go to this site for an easy action to send the letter below, or an edited version to your Congress members:

Send this message to:

• Your Congressperson

• Your Senators

Congress must preserve a free and open Internet. Please vote for enforceable network neutrality and keep tollbooths, gatekeepers, and discrimination off my Internet.  Please act now to save the Internet.

Certainly our govt has never experimented on humans.
Ours is a good govt.

Well ok we gave people Syphilis and watched them die, but they were black.
And we gave folks LSD And we use MK ultra

And the US govt likes to kill black people anyway.

And we've been intentionally releasing radioactivity from Hanford for 40 years. But that's ok, that's in WA state, who cares?
And we Gave our troops experimental vaccinations and Depleted Uranium Weapons, And then we got gulf war syndrome, but that's ok, their soldiers.
And the pigs in New York seeded the clouds in 1969 and made it rain on Woodstock, but that's ok, they were hippies.
And Hitler froze people to death and all kinds of nasty experiments, but that's ok, they were Jews. Anyway the NAZIs all said in the Nuremberg trials that they were just following the example of the US experimentation on humans. (ie Tuskege experiments giving syphilis to black people and watching them die.
And General Fremont gave Indians Blankets intentionally covered with small pox,
LOL! we killed 10s of 1,000 s! but that's ok, they were indians.
So it's all really ok, right?
Ours is a good govt.

Blood Is Thicker Than Blackwater - Jeremy Scahill
It is one of the most infamous incidents of the war in Iraq: On March 31, 2004, four private American security contractors get lost and end up driving through the center of Falluja, a hotbed of Sunni resistance to the US occupation. Shortly after entering the city, they get stuck in traffic, and their small convoy is ambushed. Several armed men approach the two vehicles and open fire from behind, repeatedly shooting the men at point-blank range. Within moments, their bodies are dragged from the vehicles and a crowd descends on them, tearing them to pieces. Eventually, their corpses are chopped and burned. The remains of two of the men are strung up on a bridge over the Euphrates River and left to dangle. The gruesome image is soon beamed across the globe.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT: BIO SHIELD, that is.
This article titled "Pigs Hold Clue to Man Made Flu" from Wired Magazine lends still MORE credence to the view that we're up against a genocide agenda intended to kill off as many of us "useless eaters" as possible. Please read it, and urge everyone you know to also read it.

WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT:

We must all POUND CON-GRESS in opposition to S.1873 ("The Biodefense and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act of 2005") (aka "BioShield 2") which would block families of people who WILL BE MAIMED AND KILLED by the Avian Flu vaccine from being able to:

A) Sue the Manufacturer, or
B) Use the Freedom of Information Act to find out what is IN these vaccines, despite the fact that the bill would ALSO waive the usual FDA approval process, and despite the fact that the whole PREMISE of vaccinations is based on a LIE.

Under a FEMA Quarantine situation, FEMA could force vaccinate people with this HIGHLY QUESTIONABLE CACA.

Pigs Hold Clues to Man-Made Flu By Kristen Philipkoski
Story location: http://www.wired.com/news/medtech/0,1286,66824,00.html


Samples taken from South Korean pigs contain genes from a human flu virus created by scientists in 1933, and one American flu researcher says the sequences could represent a dangerous situation for humans.

The World Health Organization, which monitors the worldwide spread of flu, is remaining mum until researchers finish an investigation of the pig samples.

The presence of a man-made human flu virus in pigs may be worrisome for several reasons. First, a man-made virus has no business in pigs -- did the virus get there naturally, or was it a lab accident? More frighteningly, but less likely, was it bioterrorism? Second, viruses often use pigs as a conduit to humans, who would have little or no immune resistance to this particular strain of flu since no one has been exposed to it.

"In terms of flu, pigs have always represented a danger to humans because these animals act as a mixing vessel for various strains of influenza," said Dick Thompson, a spokesman for the World Health Organization.

But WHO won't be convinced that the data is real -- that the human sequences are not a result of laboratory contamination instead of human virus in a pig -- until more laboratories can verify the samples.

Henry Niman, founder of Recombinomics and a researcher who has sleuthed the spread of bird flu and its changing genetic makeup for two years, says the investigation is moving too slowly. If pigs in Korea are carrying a man-made human flu, authorities should take action immediately to prevent it from spreading.

Sang Heui Seo of Chungnam National University in Daejon, South Korea, entered six genetic sequences from pigs into GenBank in late October. Niman came across the data in late November, and noticed they contained between three and seven genes from the WSN33 virus, which was created in 1933 by a London lab that was researching the 1918 flu pandemic. The London lab found that the virus could infect mice, indicating that it might successfully infect humans, Niman said. He reported the presence of the human WSN33 genes in Seo's samples to WHO officials in early December.

According to a news article in Science, WHO initially dismissed the data as lab contamination based on the fact that a researcher at St. Jude's Children's Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, said he had shipped samples of WSN33 to Seo's lab. But Seo told Science he never received any WSN33.

St. Jude's declined to comment on the Korean pigs, and Seo did not return e-mails requesting comment.

Seo submitted his pig data to Science for publication, but the journal's editors rejected the research, asking for outside lab testing to verify that the data was valid. Labs in Hong Kong and at the University of Wisconsin-Madison are now verifying the samples. WHO is also waiting for the results to decide whether the pigs might be a danger to humans.

"If there really are WSN33 sequences in pigs -- and probably birds -- on farms in Korea," Niman said, "then there is a very major problem."

Niman says the evidence can likely be explained by one of two possibilities: Either the man-made virus escaped from a lab, or the virus' genes are recombining -- morphing in a way that most flu researchers believe is impossible.

"(WHO doesn't) want to think about the fact that it escaped from some lab, which is most certainly what happened, and they certainly don't want to think about recombination," Niman said.

Save The Internet

Congress is now pushing a law that would end the free and open
Internet as we know it. Internet providers like AT&T and Verizon are
lobbying Congress hard to gut Network Neutrality, the Internet's First
Amendment. Net Neutrality prevents AT&T from choosing which websites
open most easily for you based on which site pays AT&T more. So Amazon
doesn't have to outbid Barnes & Noble for the right to work more
properly on your computer.

Many members of Congress take campaign contributions from these
companies, and they don't think the public are paying attention to
this issue. Let's show them we care - please sign this petition today.

Congress must keep the Internet free and open by voting for meaningful
and enforceable Network Neutrality.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW "NATIONAL SECURITY APPARATUS" IN THE UNITED STATES

Re: National I.D. Card
Jude, I admire your desire to put up a fight.  As Ron mentioned, we have allowed ourselves to become dependent on our government beyond an acceptable level.  We are no longer the hunters and gatherers of long ago. We drive cars, have debts and are contributing members of a matrix most don't see.  Ron knows (I assume) that spending his golden years in prison will not change anything and it appears he has done the next best thing by taking himself out of the system the best he can.
 
We can protest and refuse, but our government has think tanks whose sole job is to figure out how to make us comply even before they tell us what they are going to do.  Any refusal to comply could give you domestic terrorist status and please don't forget that Haliburton is currently under contract to build prisons(?) for which no specific purpose has been defined.
 
I am open for criticism, but I see economic failure as a viable solution. we must however, be willing to help those affected and live with the consequences or our actions.
 
----- If everyone would decline this new form of control then it would not work would it, but then we would all have to all do the same thing, decline, and from what I see on line we can't agree on the time of day let alone doing anything to help our country. - Jude

Will fish farming avert a global food crisis? Or speed its arrival?
This sequel to "Empty Oceans, Empty Nets" explores what's at stake
for us all as the aquaculture, or fish farming, industry spreads across
the globe. The film highlights ground-breaking efforts by scientists,
communities and industry to develop viable, sustainable operations.

Subject: Rapture Interruptus Revival! Bay Area 4/26-5/01 Bulletin at revbilly.com
http://www.revbilly.com

The Rapture Interruptus Revival
April 26 - May 1 In Northern California

The fundamentalist plan – "The Rapture" – is now in progress. People are vanishing, yanked up into another world. These believers are disappearing into SUV's, idling between super malls. They believe, though, with the Playstations in their dashboards, that their Ford Expeditions are climbing straight up cliffs and jumping fjords and running with wolves. That's Heaven's final ad campaign: Consumers on pixilated interstates up Mount Everest. Those of us left behind will die in the Hell and rising Floods of the over-heating planet.

Children, welcome to the The Rapture Interruptus Revival - we shall hit the Rapture right where it hurts. We shall slam the Rapture into Reverse. We shall sing "Stop Shopping" between the consumer and the car – catching them in the Parking Lot Of No Return. We plan a new kind of performance art, a curving choreography designed for on-ramps. Exorcisms of Bad Traffic are now being taught in 24 hour all-night shifts at the Slow Consuming School of Divinity…

# Battles Thursday, April 27 7:00pm- 10:00pm free

National Product is pleased to announce a solo exhibit of Sacha
Eckes' recent artwork.
To many, November 2nd, 2003 was a crazy day. George Bush was reelected.
Sacha started to express her struggle to understand a world so out of
whack. She started to write her feelings down on paper napkins. And
in doing so she wanted to create a sounding board for others to
process their emotions.

Miss Eckes is ultimately an optimist. She draws with a sense of
humor, albeit a dark one. Her references to war and to our daily
struggles aren't literal but rather they attempt to grasp what's
going on in this world on a visceral level.

On exhibit will be the paper napkins; also on display a series of
small studies of skeletons; a series of zombie inspired drawings; and
finally a selection of larger drawings in which many elements are
inspired by Goya's Disasters of War.
Advisory: Graphic violence, some sexual content.

Sacha Eckes notes zombies, Gary Larson, Goya and Philip Guston as
some of her inspirations.

Sacha was born and pretty much raised in Belgium. She studied
printmaking and moved to San Francisco in 1993. She is a weekly
contributor to the SF Chronicle with her Life is Good single panel
comic. http://www.sfgate.com/columnists/eckes/
She is an arts curator at 111 Minna Gallery and she installs art for
the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and the Oakland Museum.
She has exhibited at The Luggage Store Gallery, The Lab, Low Gallery
and New Image Art Gallery in Los Angeles.
To see more of her work go to http://www.sachaeckes.com

An art gallery in the back and a gift store in the front, National
Product is an eclectic mix of original art and goods made by cottage-
industry designers and artists. The Galllery at NP is a small, 2-
room, gallery with changing monthly shows. In front of the gallery is
the store with a regularly changing mix of goods including small,
less formal, shows from local artists.

public transportation is suggested. You may take any bus down market
street and get off near Guererro,Van Ness or Church. If you are
taking BART, you may exit at the Civic Center stop an take a bus
street car on Market Street towards the Castro. National Product is a

The Kaospilots are visiting from an international creative business school based in Copenhagen.

(Other Kaospilots groups are working with other issues and organizations throughout the Bay Area this spring.) While they introduce us to their unique practice and facilitation skills, we'll have the opportunity to connect with each other anew, or for the first time. For more about Kaospilots philosophy see

# April 28th 9pm Cell Space 9pm 2050 Bryant @ 18th / 19th St. http://cellspace.org
There is a 24 acre plot of land across the lake from New Orleans. It is 200 ft above sea level, in a rural setting. The window of opportunity to buy this land is narrow. We need $15,000 to hold the land for 60 days, or $50,000 to make a down payment. The land comes with a solid business that will allow us to pay it off in several years. This land will be held in common by our non-profit as gathering space for the purpose of skill development, education and spreading resources. Donations of any size will be helpful, but the best way to see this happening fast is to find 100 people who can contribute $500. We can't much about it until we have the $15,000 to hold the land.
April 28th I'll be at Cell Space in San Francisco, presenting images and video to share what I've witnessed here on the Gulf Coast over the past 7 months. The presentation will only be a half hour, from 9pm to 9:30pm. as it is an opening to a dance party that follows... as the official after-party of the New Living Expo. Tickets are $20, and funds raised go to the Action Hero Network.

# Really Really Free Market Saturday April 29th!
The Really Really Free Market will be starting again, beginning with Saturday April 29th. As it was last year, it will be from noon to 4 in Dolores Park, S.F. Come on out and celebrate the 1 year anniversary of the RRFM in dolores park, and the end of the nonstop rain!

We will be setting up a new email discussion list for people who are interested in being involved with working on organizing the rrfm beyond the day of the event itself (things like flyering, brainstorming new ideas for things we would like to see at the rrfm, etc.) If you are interested in being on this list, email me at rsykes1710 at yahoo.com and let me know.

Also, the website is down due to domain name issues, but it is being worked on.

What is The Really REALLY Free Market?

It's like a large community-wide garage sale, except everything is
FREE! Yes, that's right, FREE! Everyone is invitied to bring things to GIVE
AWAY!

So this is like bartering or trading, right?
Nope. Bartering and trading go something like this:
I've got this great shirt here, what can you offer me for it?

The RRFM goes something like this: I've got this really great shirt
here. I don't really wear it anymore, but I'd hate to see it go to waste.
Do you want it? Great! Here, it's yours!

Why would i want to do a thing like that?
Because you have to many things already! Because you're just going to
throw it away anyway. Because it FEELS GOOD!
Do you have things cluttering up your home? Maybe some stuff that you
don't use anymore, but you know that someone else would probably love.
One person's trash can truly be another person's treasure!

What should I bring?
Bring *your thing* to the RRFM, whatever that is! Material goods, food
or drinks, a service to provide, a skill you have that you want to
teach to others, a performance, or anything else!

What if I don't have anything to give away?
Everyone has something to give to others. The RRFM isn't just about
giving away *stuff.* What is it that you do? Why not come to the RRFM and
find a way to do it for others, except this time for free just for the
fun of it. As a gift to others, as a gift to yourself. It's a way of
reclaiming meaning in your job, to give it as a gift, unmediated by
commerce.

Who runs the RRFM?
Well, the RRFM consists of the sum of its participants. The gift you
bring to the event, helps create what the event is for others, just as
what others bring to the event, creates what the event is for you.

That said, there are some folks who came together to help create the
structure for the RRFM to work. But it is our hope that soon enough, our
role within the RRFM will be the same as everyone else's. That is, that
each of us decides our own level of involvement.

The RRFM is yours! Take advantageous of that. Make it what you want it
to be! If you want to see something happening at the RRFM that isn't
already happening, than make it happen! If you want to see more people
coming to the RRFM, help spread the word! Send emails to your friends,
make and distribute flyers (make your own or download them from the
website), talk to people about the RRFM.
----

Please help us keep the RRFM a 100% FREE and non-commercial event. Once
a month, let's come together and forget about trading, bartering, and
money. Leave the business cards at home and remember the joy of giving
for the sake of giving.

Help us keep Dolores Park clean. If no one takes what you brought,

community that has a great intersection of communities within it. Not only
that, but FUN seems to be an integral part of the experience. Can't beat
that with a stick.
Well...I guess you could, but it would be weird. Like peas in your penne
pasta. Weird.

The Mighty Ruckus music and film festival will take place Saturday,

Black Furies, The Insaints (LA) , Fleshies, Gooferman, Three Weeks
Clean, The Grannies, Lou Lou and the Guitarfish, Sloatbucket, The
Teenage Harlots and the Casey Neill Band from Portland.

"We have a great cross section of Bay Area rock n roll on display
that weekend" says festival founder Jeff Ross. "From the teenagers in
The Guitarfish to 80's punk legends The Insaints on a reunion tour."

In the DJ Lounge will be: Skip (New Wave City), Jenny Fake (Suicide
Club/Fake), Monkey (Pirate Cat Radio), Fletcher (Club ID), Fernando
