Free John Waters Exhibition At Rena Bransten Gallery 
Being a traditionalist, I'm a rabid sucker for Christmas. In July I'm already worried that there are only 146 shopping days left. "What are you getting me for Christmas?" I carp to fellow bathers who haven't even decided what to do for Labour Day. As each month follows, I grow more and more obsessed. Around October I startle complete strangers by bursting into my off-key rendition of "Joy to the World." I'm always The Little Drummer Boy for Halloween, a grouchy one at that...

City Seeks Court Validation of Lease & Revenue Bond for Golden Gate Park Garage 
I'm breaking this story because you won't find it anywhere in the corporate controlled press. AP is currently considering the story about the lawsuit against the garage, a Warren Hellman project that he promised would be paid for with private donations. Contrary to their public reports, they only raised a third of the $60 million they needed for their garage, so Hellman and his MCCP devised a clever, but highly curious method of financing their boondoggle. This is sensitive information, becau...

Postmortem: A conference between 'post-left' anarchists and anti-state communists Intro
The anarchist study group (ASG)1 at the Long Haul had been paying attention to the rise of intelligent commentary both critical of the modern anarchist milieu and engaged in a parallel criticism of the system as a whole. This is exemplified by publications like Aufheben (UK) and Against Sleep and Nightmare (US) that aspire to deepen the struggle against the current order. Locally there has been a tradition of collaboration and fracture between Anti-State Communists (ASC) and the anar...

More Pictures From Rally At Castro Safeway 
More than 70,000 UFCW members in Southern California are taking a stand against corporate greed. Forced to fight by supermarket giants demanding wholesale cuts in health benefits that would leave current workers unable to pay for their care—and effectively leave future employees without any health care coverage at all--workers from seven locals voted over 90% to reject the offer by three of the largest supermarket operators in the country, Von's (Safeway-owned), Ralph's (Kroger-owned) and Alb...
