The Bank of North Dakota: Our Only State Owned Bank More and more activists (and state candidates in the November elections) are getting on the bandwagon to join North Dakota in exploring the creation of state owned banks and/or lending institutions. With many states on the verge of bankruptcy, thanks to their indebtedness to Wall Street, it seems an incredibly simple and cost effective way to restore their financial self-sufficiency.

Occupy New Plymouth- Day 3 and Report on New Zealand Occupy Movement My participation in Occupy New Plymouth has to be one of the most inspiring, soul-changing experiences of my life. Not only has it given me the unique privilege of connecting and hearing the views of young (some high school age) activists, but it has taught me how to totally set aside my usual routine for the more important task of change making.

OWS: A Quandary for Long Time Activists I encounter many long time activists in a quandary how to relate to #OccupyWallStreet. A vibrant, growing mass movement involving thousands of activists is always far more interesting and exciting than the drudgery of keeping existing grassroots organizations going. There is a strong temptation to abandon current organizing commitments to join the groundswell created by the OWS movement. This could be a big mistake.

Fighting Fracking in New Zealand New Plymouth is sometimes referred to as the Texas of New Zealand, owing to its (tiny) off-shore gas fields and oil rigs. It's also home to a highly vocal oil/gas industry watchdog group called Climate Justice Tarananki. It was this group that first raised the alarm on local fracking operations in March 2011. Taranaki is also the first region in New Zealand to protest fracking.

How to End the War(s) Obama's endeavor to conduct an indefinite war of aggression on seven fronts is ill-conceived, morally bankrupt, and opposed by the majority of the American public. Given their first hand contact with corruption, officer misconduct and civilian atrocities, returning veterans are a critical voice in an antiwar effort that was scattered to the winds by the election of Barack Obama.

Paid Sick Leave - One for our Side In June, Connecticut became the first state to require private employers to provide paid sick leave. The US is the only country in the industrialized world with no national requirement for employers to provide paid sick leave. Connecticut's Working Families Party (WFP), which has been lobbying for paid sick leave since 2002, is claiming credit for the new law.

After Seattle The collapse of the Doha round of WTO negotiations in 2009 was a major victory for antiglobalization activists. Unfortunately globalization is alive and well. The current 9 country TPPA has many of the same investor protections as the MAI and threatens to end our access to low-cost generic medications.

Oil Spills and Money Laundering: An Ethical Dilemma The problem of Wall Street involvement in money laundering of illicit drug profits dates back to the late seventies (at least). There are no mainstream banks that aren't implicated and the ready availability of drug cash seems fundamental to keeping the US financial system afloat.

The Battle for Tomorrow - my new book My new book (a novel) went up on Amazon today. It's about a sixteen- year-old girl who participates in the blockade and occupation of the US Capitol. I suspect The Battle for Tomorrow will be controversial because it talks frankly about teen sexuality, contraception and abortion.

The Rohingya Crisis: Is Myanmar the New Syria The western media is flooding us with images of Muslim Rohingya fleeing Rakhine state in Myanmar. Yet for some reason western accounts rarely mention the country's 70-year civil war with Rohingyan separatists - nor the support the latter receive from Saudi Arabia. The US is notorious for using humanitarian crises to justify both direct and proxy military intervention. Is Myanmar possibly the new Syria.

Towards a Nonpartisan Anti-Corporate Movement It is interesting to see the growing support from non-Republicans - even leftists - for Congressman Ron Paul's campaign to restore Constitutional freedoms lost as a result of the war on terror. Meanwhile the corporate seems to be doing everything possible to divide us and get us fighting among one another.

Addressing Corporate Fraud: Norway's 40 Percent (female, usually) Solution With the recent massive publicity over Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street giants, the SEC's new diversity rules merit more scrutiny. Norway enacted similar legislation in 2003 - requiring gender balance on publicly traded corporation.

The Hidden (Manmade) Cause of the Cancer Epidemic Dr Mary's Monkey may be more important for the insight it provides into the current epidemic of breast and other soft tissue cancers than for new evidence it provides regarding the JFK assassination. Haslam's book provides a detailed history of how the Salk and Sabin polio vaccines administered to three million baby boomers were accidentally contaminated with a cancer causing monkey virus known as SV-40.
