"Flood Kitchen" CLOSED after THANKSGIVING

Now Playing: Rainbow Family Kitchen in Waveland
Topic: ANYBODY * ANYDAY
Volunteers, Materials No Longer Needed
Some Volunteers Seeking New Location Elsewhere
We Need Help to Get Outta Here

Thats the message being circulated at Waveland Kitchen in Virgina. In a reference to my eirlier post on Z3 Reports
Below is the latest update:


I read out on the web, where there was some harsh words for members of the Virginia Police from members of the Rainbow Gathering group, who have been diligent and steadfast in their support of Hancock County by working the New Waveland Cafe for the Flood & homeless victims. Rainbow people were feeling like they were getting abused and unnecessarily harassed by the new group of Virginia police working there. Word reached the EOC that this was going on and not long afterwords, the sergeant in charge of the police force personally came and apologized for the harsh treatment. Once the EOC made it clearly understood that the Rainbow group had been providing a necessary service, needed LESS police enforcement and had been invited to stay for the long-term, the new Virginia police toned it down and have been working very well with the Rainbow people ever since.
Interestingly enough, the Rainbow group has always clashed with Forestry Service when they gather at National Forests all over America each year; however, they have an excellent relationship with the Forestry people at the EOC.

As things begin to wind down here in Waveland beings this is written on 11-14-05, we are happy to announce that the New Waveland Cafe is no longer in need of more volunteers or materials.
We wish to thank you all for your generosity with your time, prayers and donations. We really made a difference here on the Mississippi Coast and we continually remind folks here that:
We're only the face on a much larger effort.

The New Waveland Cafe will serve its last meal on Thanksgiving, followed by a day of rest, then a Party complete with Parade on Saturday, November 27, down Hwy 90 through the middle of Waveland. By December 1, we expect to leave an empty parking lot and lots of good memories here at Fred's.

Lawsuit Filed Over Gun Ban in California by The NRA
Mood:  sharp
Now Playing: NRA FIGHTING FOR OUR RIGHTS IN SAN FRANSCISO
Topic: CIVIL RIGHTS
The National Rifle Association (NRA)

Even with opposition from San Francisco law enforcement and major media outlets,
Proposition H -- a measure banning the lawful possession, sale and manufacture of handguns and ammunition within city limits -- passed yesterday.

The NRA will file a lawsuit challenging this severe gun ban ...which is clear violation of California law.


NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre stated, “We are disappointed, but this fight is just beginning. Lawful residents of San Francisco are being stripped of their freedom because of an illegal measure that defies common sense. We will fight this outrageous assault on the rights of law-abiding San Franciscans and I believe that we will prevail.”

READ UP AND STAY INFORMED!
THIS IS OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS AT STAKE!
ALL CITIZENS HAVE A RIGHT TO A GUN
NOT JUST CERTAIN CITIES!
THE NRA IS STEPPING
UP TO DEFEND THIS ABUSE.
IS YOUR CITY NEXT?

"Birds of The Feather"


Kenneth Tomlinson, a friend of Karl Rove's who was made head of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting with orders to steer it sharply right, was forced to step down on November 4th for skimming cash from the $400 Million budget. He's still the chairman of the Broadcasting Board of Governors, though, even while the State Department has already found evidence of widespread, intentional theft of government funds. The Cheney-Bush Junta model for "defunding liberal institutions" is more aggressive than the old Reagan "zero budget" approach ? they actively loot government institutions until they collapse. But all this criminality is beginning to look like no accident.
Click HERE for an excellent blog article
that is quoting STEPHEN LABATON about this rotton creep Tomlinsom and his little ploys to ruin PBS as we have come to know and love it.


(text/article from Oregonian is below 11-16-05)

-- WASHINGTON --
Investigators at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting concluded on Tuesday that its former chairman had repeatedly broken federal law and the organization's own regulations in a campaign to combat what he saw as liberal bias.
A scathing report by the corporation's inspector general described a dysfunctional organization that had violated the Public Broadcasting Act, which created the corporation and was written to insulate programming decisions from politics.

The former chairman, Kenneth Y. Tomlinson, who was ousted from the board two weeks ago when it was presented with the details of the report in a closed session, has said he sought to enforce a provision of the broadcasting act meant to ensure objectivity and balance in programming. But in the process, the report said, Tomlinson repeatedly crossed statutory boundaries that had set up the corporation as a "heat shield" to protect public radio and television from political interference.

In a statement distributed with the report, Tomlinson rejected its conclusions. He said any suggestion that he had violated his duties or the law "is malicious and irresponsible" and that the inspector general had opted "for politics over good judgment."

The investigators also found evidence that "political tests" were a major criterion used by Tomlinson in recruiting the corporation's new president, Patricia Harrison, a former co-chairwoman of the Republican National Committee and a former senior State Department official.
Harrison disputed suggestions that she was motivated by politics.

hey what happened to his parrot?
BURBANK, Calif. - Eight months after Robert Blake was acquitted at a criminal trial of murdering his wife, a civil jury decided Friday the tough-guy actor was behind the slaying, and ordered him to pay Bonny Lee Bakley's children $30 million.
The plaintiffs had argued that Blake either killed Bakley himself or hired someone to do so. The jury was not asked to decide which theory it believed.

None of Bakley's four children was in the courtroom for the verdict
"I know there isn't any money to recover from him," Daughter Holly Gawron said.
"I'm not interested in the money."

how sad for everyone

Old CIA Director says Cheney Torture Policy is Reprehensible
Mood:  smelly
Now Playing: Stansfield Turner calls the kettle black (because it is !)
Topic: TORTURE
Now we have Stansfield Turner, who ran the Central Intelligence Agency from 1977 to 1981 under former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, coming out and saying according to ITV's Web site in the British press.
..."I'm embarrassed the United States has a vice president for torture, he condones torture, what else is he?"

He also did not believe U.S. President George W. Bush's statements that the United States does not use torture. And I (Joe Blow Anybody) don’t believe it for one damn second either.

He goes on to say and mind you this is coming from a ex CIA director of the USA "We have crossed the line into dangerous territory, I think it is just reprehensible. he said referring to Cheney.
Turner also mentioned: "I just don't understand how a man in that position can take such a stance."
(I do!!… besides being him also being behind 911 and the Neocon’s movement to gain world superiority this is par for the course in my record book)

What I want to be clear on is:
To me this should be considered WAR CRIMES!

Does this sick jerk deserve to run our Country into the Ground like this?
WAKE UP AMERICA IS THIS YOUR ELECTED OFFICIAL
DO THESE NEOCON FASCISTS EXPRESS YOUR IDEA OF AMERICA?

Are you proud to have the US torturing other citizens? And then spin the truth and say we don’t torture? Sounds as obvious to me as a little kid lying to an adult, when you know that they are lying to you!

I have been documenting torture info --> Z3 Torture Link Here

This war-mongering Administration says the legislation could tie the president's hands, in regards to The measure, sponsored by Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, which would require American troops to follow interrogation standards set in the Army Field Manual and bar "cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment" of prisoners in U.S. custody. The only hands that are tied that I am seeing are the prisoners-hands that are bound and then hung in stress positions for hours (if not days!)

You see Z3 Readers Cheney has pressed lawmakers to exempt the CIA, according to The Associated Press.
Now lets stop right here!
Do you want to have the USA torturing prisoner with our CIA being done in your name?

Do you think that when Cheney is in jail for war crimes, will he like to be tortured?
I can picture that …a few prison guards standing on him with a hood over his head - serves him right!

And with a possible veto showdown with the White House, the Senate voted overwhelmingly (the senators voted 90-9 ) for an amendment to a Pentagon spending bill that sets standards for the treatment of prisoners in U.S. military custody

While international law and treaty obligations forbid torture and inhumane treatment, classified memos have given the government ways to extract intelligence from detainees "consistent with the law," administration officials say.

But Readers here is the caveat “White House spokesman Scott McClellan said President Bush would likely veto the defense-spending bill if McCain's language were included, calling the amendment unnecessary and duplicative."

Can we just veto this sick creep instead?

Dear Diary,
Today I looked at a website that let me enter in my zip code and I could see all the corporations in my area that had OSHA violations or who had taken jobs overseas in attempt to skirt health and safety standards ....or they had endangered their workers' health or they are involved in cases of violations of workers' rights under the National Labor Relations Act.

That link is --> HERE it was called the
"Job Tracker" ...How interesting!

You see Diary, I read on the AFL-CIO website that
80,700 workers lose their jobs.
45 million people have no health insurance.
4,227 people file for bankruptcy.
11 million children attend broken-down schools.

People need to come together to demand our elected officials start paying attention to what really matters to us: good jobs, quality health care we can afford, a top-notch education for our children and a secure retirement.
I have Ben Waiting for some responsible attention put on priorities that mean an improvement and security in our daily lives. By speaking out and joining together people can make change. We need to change the direction this country is heading.

I say the change starts now!
And first you must Stay Informed!
Then you need to Take Action!

Keep these two pages for your records

USA using White Phosphorus and Melting Bodies in Iraq
Mood:  sad
Now Playing: Sick Reports Of White Phosphorus being used (M 77)
Topic: WAR
As I alerted Z3 readers to last week
The US Military is using chemicals on civilians in IRAQ.

Weapons Over the Edge Of Insanity

The US has now admitted using white phosphorus as a weapon in Falluja last year, after earlier denying it.

Read this BBC LINK HERE

This is nasty stuff, if particles of ignited white phosphorus land on a person's skin, they can continue to burn right through flesh to the bone. Toxic phosphoric acid can also be released into wounds, risking phosphorus poisoning.

This old picture below we all have seen before, and it seems todays military leaders are allowing it to be happening all over again, and to civilians too.

This is being done by our Military in Iraq? You thought we may of learned back then?
That chemical weapons were horrifically wrong...look at this picture--> Didn't we learn anything?

I have Been Waiting ...But Nothing has changed much! Sorry!
...I am so Sorry!

See my previous post from 11-11-05 here-->
Zebra 3 Post on M77 Chemical

Human Rights groups will/are complaining
Z3 readers will read all about it.
Nation security will be blocking reports of use from media.
Bush war crimes will continue, with denials and cover ups.
Many will yell conspiracy or tyranny.
Yet years from now society will say "Wow! Was that right of our Military to use Flesh Burning Chemicals on civilians or even so called military, ooops!! I mean insurgents, like we are admitingly doing in Falluja?"

Ya know I thought we went to Iraq looking for chemical ???
It seems like we brought them with us to use on those people as we bring them Freedom"

Come On Readers! ...Burning the flesh right off the bone.....OH! this is great!

The horrific picture and subject matter was deemed appropriate to show on this site, by zebra 3 management, due to the acceptance of violence and cruelty this current administration acknowledges and abides in. In this case I think this is from Falluja.
