 MICHELE LANDSBERG CELEBRATES “WRITING THE REVOLUTION” LAUNCH WITH AVI LEWIS AND NAOMI KLEIN

"The internet cannot, in short, provide access to information without hyperlinks. Limiting their usefulness by subjecting them to the traditional publication rule would have the effect of seriously restricting the flow of information and, as a result, freedom of expression," the ruling said. "The potential 'chill' in how the internet functions could be devastating, since primary article authors would unlikely want to risk liability for linking to another article over whose changeable content they have no control.

Worker Ownership Cooperatives are Our way out of This Mess


Oct 14, 2011
Michael says

I first heard of the Mondragon Cooprative of the Basque in Spain, back in 1994.  My Mom had been telling m the Family History of the Cheveries who are Basque.   The French had kicked the Cheverie's out of France.  We ended up on Prince Edward Island.  The English tried to kick us out of there.  My Ancesters went andn hid in the woods for 15 yars and had lots of kids.  I told my Mom, ''I want to know what they are doing now?''  2 weeks latter she showed me an Article in the Catholic Digest, about Mondragon's Worker Ownership. 
As an IBEW Journey Man ""Wirenut'' (as we called ourselves.) who had worked in a good part of this Country, with all of my benefits being sent back to my Home Local, 103 of Boston, saw right away how Unions  could make it work here.  Been planting seeds about it to all kinds of Unions, Churches, and other gathering places, from my address book picked up through the years.


''OWS has not yet formed a group consciousness to create Democratic Social Organizations to serve the Nation  But Vermont and Montana are creating citizen operated Health Insuranc.  And North Dakota has had its own State Bank for over 90 years, which bypasses Wall Street and The Fed.  Ithaca New York has a Democratic Social Town Bank.  And the nation media is showing their shameful censorship for the whole country to recoil from.  United Steel is planning Worker Owned Factories.  It's a long journey back to Liberty and justice.  We will struggle to end lobbying and to end the Federal Reserve (Which is owned and run by private banks and has no reserves.).  Its a lot of work.'' J C Skues  -A good Feacebook Friend of mine.

Iran reacts to the U.S.: "Murder is your thing"

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad reacted Sunday to the release by the U.S. government that accused Tehran of sponsoring a terrorist plot in the United States and used the occasion to blame Washington for the frequent bilateral crises.
"The Iranian nation does not need educated articulate plans of murder. Murder is your thing," said Ahmadinejad, speaking at the Iranian Parliament, The Iranian President's remarks were reported by the official news agency, IRNA.
The onslaught from the leader responds to U.S. charges that the Islamic Republic would be behind a plot to assassinate the Saudi ambassador in Washington, Adel al-Jubeir. Ahmadinejad said the U.S. is seeking "to create a new crisis every day with Iran, accusing it of terrorism." For him, the American accusations are merely an attempt to try and stop the development of Iran.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Iran said in a statement that the U.S. accusations "have no legal basis" and they only seek to "exacerbate tension in the region" in the Middle East and "undermine international security."
"They unilaterally announce charges against a resident (Iranian) in the United States, without providing documents, and create a media campaign against Iran that has no legal basis," the Ministry said.

 

The shortcomings of the cleanup plan, which we’ll run through, are extensive and some are fairly complex – but the central hangup is that BP is doing its damnedest to walk away from the huge mess it made. And it appears that despite the fact that this is federally protected land, the Obama Administration is going to let BP turn its back on the promise it repeatedly made to make things right on the Gulf.
