FBI: Al Qaeda May Strike U.S. Shopping Malls in LA, Chicago


Big Brother really IS watching you: AT&T whistleblower to testify to Congress Wednesday.
Just when you were beginning to relax and think, "Only one more year of Big Bother," along comes Keith Olbermann on tonight's Countdown with a segment about the upcoming whistleblower's testimony to Congress tomorrow. AT&T has been turning over ALL Internet and phone conversations, both domestic and overseas, to the feds. EVERY SINGLE CONVERSATION YOU EVER MADE, AND EVERY SINGLE EMAIL YOU EVER SENT HAS BEEN SHOWN TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT--no matter WHO you are!
If you missed it, you can see it at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036677

Obesity 'fuels cancer in women'
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7079799.stm
11-7-07
This has been an ongoing study for about 15 years. John Hopkins Med School started the study because they kept finding cancer in overweight women. Fat is not only directly under the skin. Over weight women have tremendous amounts of fat between the organs. (For some reason fat likes to accumulate all around the liver.) So when cancer starts to grow in the internal fat it rapidly spreads to the adjacent organs.
=======
Here is the key thing. Fat tissue has extremely slow blood flow because it does not need oxygen since it does not need the same nutrients as muscle tissue. The enzymes in the genetic structure of fat cells are not active as those in muscle and are not able to correct errors in the gene sequence and cancer has a much greater chance of surviving and not being attacked by the immune system.
That is the simplified version of increased cancer in overweight people.

White House declines comment on dollar weakness WASHINGTON (Reuters)

If the Pakistan government falls to the insurgents oil and the gold could pass $1,200 within a few months.
Right now the regular things are driving the dollar down. Those are:
Fear the U.S. will have to go into Pakistan and save that country from insurgents,
the weak dollar,
rumors the Saudies will switch the pricing of oil to Euros if the Democrats win,
Home forclosure rates,
turmoil in the Middle East,
our lame duck president who is still for the war, and congress and everyone else telling him to pull out.
The billions of dollars being spent on the war.

Is The Dollar's Fall Spiraling Out Of Control?
Indications that the Fed has overstretched spell disaster for global economy
The U.S. government and the Fed's drive to devalue the dollar in

global financial meltdown despite the desperate efforts of the elite
to restrain a horse that has already bolted.

Urgent - please come today (Thurs) at 4:30pm to Oak Grove UC Berkeley Piedmont @ Bancroft
TODAY - Community Rally and vigil at 4:30pm at the Oak Grove! Please come.
PLEASE BRING: food, blankets, supplies for the tree sitters, musical instruments to play, and anything else you have that you'd like to contribute to this gathering.
As you may know by now, the UC Police just erected a SECOND fence at the grove. In a letter to Judge Barbara Miller, UC stated that the purpose of this fence is to prepare for the upcoming removal of the tree-sitters.
UC's action in erecting this fence is reckless and infringes on the rights of everyone to enjoy this sacred site.
Please join us today at 4:30pm for a beautiful gathering of everyone who supports the oak grove.
PLEASE FORWARD to all your friends who care about the oaks.

Sat Nov 10 8 AM TreeSpirit Photo at Memorial Oak Grove / UCBerkeley
Photographer Jack Gescheidt here, confirming that the next big TreeSpirit photo will be made in Berkeley's Memorial Oak Grove on Saturday, November 10th at 8 AM. We will draw public attention to these mature oak trees that are threatened by UC's development plans and make a photographic artwork celebrating their beauty and value.
If you believe as I do that the great new gymnasium intended for this site can be more safely, wisely built at an alternate location-not on top of the Hayward earthquake fault-please support this peaceful, creative, playful, adventurous art event/demonstration.
All are welcome to participate OR simply bear loving, supportive witness. I expect a large turnout because the oak grove is in the news, as well it should be. These trees are important to both the local community, as well as globally symbolic of the crucial role trees play in our physical, emotional and spiritual lives. If you feel as I and many others do that trees are a precious and valuable environmental resource, and that we need more greenspace and not less, please join us in this chance to act locally while thinking globally.
Detailed information about this event is posted here on Craig's List:

For our next Saturday night wine party, we're returning

On Saturday, November 10th, the party kicks off at

- 10:00 pm. Mars Bar is very easy to find, as it is right
on the corner of 7th Street and Brannan Street. Parking
in the area is also easy to find early Saturday evening,
as long as you arrive before 8:00 pm.
After 10:00, Mars is having a music event (4 year
anniversary for Pink Mammoth- a burning man house
music group), so if you are into this music, plan to stay
later. Our wine tasting party will roll into this music event.
We're going to have a great time!
http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/d/4/8/a/highres_2034410.jpeg[/img]
This time we're bringing all of the wine, and it's going
to be of very high quality. We'll have a delicious mix of
both reds and whites.
Fees are $20 at the door. This fee covers unlimited wine
tasting (plus space fees)

A NIGHT OF SOLIDARITY IN SUPPORT OF THE SHAC7
November 16th 2007 at 8pm 1884 Market Street at Laguna, SF
accessible space, donations appreciated
Please join us for an evening of slides / videos, a legal update, and
letter writing to commemorate the SHAC7's one year anniversary in prison.
The SHAC7 are 6 activists and a corporation, Stop Huntingdon Animal
Cruelty USA Inc., that have been found guilty of multiple federal
felonies for their alleged role in simply campaigning to close down
the notorious animal testing lab, Huntingdon Life Sciences. The six
individuals are all currently in federal prison. They are not accused
of actually smashing windows, liberating animals or even attending
demonstrations, rather reporting on and encouraging others to engage
in legal demonstrations and supporting the ideology of direct action.
After being found guilty, they are beginning their appeal.
Unfortunately this appeal will be done from prison. During their stay
they need your support! Finances, spreading the word about their case,
books, letters or just a friendly 'hello'! It just takes a few minutes
to brighten the lives of political prisoners!
Let's let these individuals know they are not forgotten!

Please foster Kittens for you local SPCA.
Help raise kittens until they are 8 weeks old or 2 lbs and can be put up for adoption.
It is important that they have humans for socialization and play! (lucky you)

this is the sweetest and most fun way to bring extra love into your life,
and into the kittens' lives. This program is FREE:
You attend their kitten foster program so you know how...
And then when they have a litter of kittens for you,
they send you home with kittens and all the cat food you need.
