Brad Will, IMC journalist murdered in Oaxaca

Wes, another imc volunteer, 30.10.2006 - 09:32
Here is Brad Will's last dispatch where he reports on the darkness that is all but ignored by the commercial news. His news report is testimony in and of itself as to the importance of independent media. Go light a candle for Brad Will. Long Live Independent Media!

Brad was an independent video journalist, a volunteer with the Independent Media Center in NYC. We have lost a journalist who helped shine light on news that is under-reported or not even told at all. Shame on the United States mainstream media for their corporate censorship when it comes to this 5 month long teacher and community struggle in Oaxaca, Mexico. So, so many don't even know. Were it not for imc reporters like Brad Will: No One Would Know.

Grants Pass Postal Service Picket Report Back

Dennis Hotchkiss, Oregon state-wide President APWU, 28.10.2006 - 15:27
the message is clear - DON'T MESS WITH OUR MAIL SERVICE!

In the last six years the Postal Service has cut out nearly 100,000 APWU positions mostly clerks. That is nearly 1/3 of the workers from six years ago. The Medford Post Office, the mail processing plant for Southern Oregon, now works employees 7 days, 12 hour shifts and the mail still is not getting out in a timely manner- they just won't hire career employees to handle the workload.

Vote for Affordable Housing in Ashland

Join the affordable housing campaign, 20.10.2006 - 22:25
Hi Friends,
I received the following message from Rich Rohde and Oregon Action.  The local measure he references seems polarizing, unnecessary and won't receive much attention so I am sending along my recommendation to vote NO on Measure 15-65--Steve

Ashland voters and friends,

Since there is no material in the voters guide about Ballot Measure 15-65 in Ashland please consider this letter and vote no.  Oregon Action has been supporting affordable housing for our community, and we recommend a no vote.

Ashland voters have the opportunity to do the right thing for affordable housing this election by voting a resounding No to Measure 15-65. Designed by anti-affordable housing ideologues, this measure changes the City charter to require that any proposal for a real estate transfer fee in Ashland must be put up for public vote. Read on for two great reasons to vote against 15-65

Watershed Week - October 11-18

wild mt ashland, 13.10.2006 - 22:48
Ashlanders will gather at a series of community and educational events dubbed "Watershed Week - October 11-18" to learn about the importance of our watershed. The week's activities will galvanize citizens to protect our watershed as a source of clean drinking water, lush forests, and critical habitat for numerous plants and animals.

Our fragile watershed has been under threat since the Mt Ashland Association refused to compromise and planned to expand the Mt Ashland Ski Area into the pristine Middle Branch. The controversy around the proposed expansion of the Mt Ashland Ski Area has reached a crucial moment. The situation is dynamic and changing daily. Citizen involvement to protect our watershed and urge City Council to make sound decisions is critical at this time.

GAO Shows Biscuit Logging Lost Money

Rolf Skar, 04.10.2006 - 13:18
A Government Accountability Office (GAO) report released today shows the Bush administration lost taxpayer dollars by logging remote, sensitive forests after the 2002 Biscuit fire. This definitive report by the government's own watchdog group deals another serious blow to Congressman Greg Walden's post-fire logging bill now pending in Congress.
