Anti-Choice Ads Appear in BART Trains and Stations
, 13.01.2006 20:38
Slick anti-choice advertisements recently appeared in BART trains and stations. The ads imply that San Franciscans and women in general are opposed to abortion, or at the very least have qualms about it, without discussing the fact that women should be able to choose for themselves if and when to have children. The ads, instead, ask, "Abortion: Have We Gone too Far?" BART has rejected ads from anti-war groups in the past, but apparently it does not object to the content in the anti-choice ads. Some activists are complaining to BART officials while others are taking matters into their own hands and defacing many of these advertisements.

Out-thinking them, not out-fighting them: heart analysis sheds decisive light (with art)
, 13.01.2006 20:08
Visionaries, 'idealists', and others daring towards their desires must move beyond shared powerless feelings. We are here for a reason, we have created and are creating our crucial projects.

1st Amendment Trashed in Immigrant Crackdown
, 13.01.2006 17:08
Costa Mesa Mayor Allan Mansoor believes that America is "a nation
of laws." That's why, he says, the city's police should be first in
the nation to directly help deport "illegal aliens." But conduct by
Monsoor at two recent Costa Mesa city council meetings–-revealed on
video logs from two separate sources–-raises questions about his
ability to correctly and impartially uphold the law, including basic
First Amendment rights.
Fall Creek Timber Sale: Logging in progress
, 13.01.2006 14:08
Last Friday (Jan 6) some friends and I took a hike to Fall Creek, where we encountered a logging operation happening in the hills. This, I believe, is the sale that was bought by Silver Creek Timber Company on November 2nd, 2005 (note, Silver Creek is the same company that's been reaping the benefits of the Biscuit Fire). If this is correct, this sale is 4.22 million board feet, or about 500 logging trucks full of trees. In terms of what we saw, there were two or three logging trucks (just pickups, as of last Friday, they're not yarding yet), and "fellers" in what seemed to be two locations up the hill. There was also one law enforcement officer, who allowed us to enter into Bedrock Campground across th
