And Quit Telling Girls to Dream. http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2013/05/22/barbie_dreamhouse_experience_occupy_the_berlin_exhibit_and_stop_telling.html Where do you even start with Barbie? Few toys inspire such feminist gnashing of teeth as the 11 ½-inch plastic doll, with her blindingly white skin, impossible figure, and fathomless wardrobe. And now her Dreamhouse tourist attraction has descended, like the hut from the Baba Yaga story, on Berlin, where it’s been greeted by topless protestors waving burning crosses and men ironically dressed in pink skirts and blond wigs. “Occupy Barbie’s Dreamhouse,” they cry, condemning the doll for promoting consumerism, narcissism and unhealthy body ideals. Their placards—and torsos—are scrawled with slogans like “Pin…

Despite serving multiple tours of duty, the wounded soldiers lose their medical care and other benefits for life. We’re joined by Colorado Springs Gazette reporter Dave Philipps, whose three-part series, “Other than Honorable,” tells the stories of several discharged veterans suffering severe health issues from injuries sustained in combat. “The Army’s difficulty in dealing with this is…

Key bases his assessment on their new power policy which would see a government provider buying all the power from generators. However Key should ponder the fact that the state owned all aspects of power generation and the distribution of electricity right up until 1999. And no one ever described the Holyoake and Muldoon led National governments of this era as “far left” because electricity was state owned. Not that being a “left wing”…

Our societies have become addicted to extreme risk in finding new energy, new financial instruments and more … and too often, we're left to clean up a mess afterward. Klein's question: What's the backup plan? In her latest work, Naomi Klein wonders: What makes our culture so prone to the reckless high-stakes gamble, and why are women so frequently called upon to clean up the mess?

- #union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Emails discussing Occupy Portland show political motives to evict, nonprofit says http://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2013/05/emails_discussing_occupy_portl.html#incart_river A nonprofit has released dozens of emails obtained through the Freedom of Information Act that offer a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes discussions among government officials in the days before the November 2011 eviction of Occupy Portland protesters from two city parks. The emails were primarily sent to and from unidentified employees of the Federal Protective Service, the agency that handles security for federal properties. Although Occupy Portland protesters took over two city parks for more than a month, several also briefly camped on the federally owned Terry Schrunk Plaza. Th…

The first known casualty was Richard B. Fitzgibbon, of North Weymouth , Mass. Listed by the U.S. Department of Defense as having been killed on June 8, 1956. His name is listed on the Wall with that of his son, Marine Co…
