A group of citizens from Occupy Delaware delivered the following mic check in front of a local Citibank branch on Saturday, December 17th.
We the people, from Occupy Delaware, are foreclosing upon this branch of Citibank, a subsidiary of Citigroup, for Citigroup's high crimes and misdemeanors against its customers, its employees, this community and the people of world.
This foreclosure is done in all seriousness in the stead of our government, which has forced us to act in the face of their inability or unwillingness to address the following crimes by Citigroup.
1. Being an active contributor to the economic crisis by promoting the use of CDO's or Collateralized Debt Obligations.
2. Defrauding their own investors by promoting CDO's, that in private emails were called "a collection of dogshit".
3. Betting against those very same CDOs and reaping profits when they failed, while their investors, customers & the citizens of the world lost their savings, their jobs and their homes.
4. Predatory lending practices AND
5. Unlawful and deceptive foreclosure practices.
We demand that Citigroup be brought to justice for these crimes. And we also demand that that justice does not entail settlements with the SEC, Attorney's General or other governmental institutions that would allow Citigroup to avoid any admission of wrongdoing or liability for these crimes.
We the people demand that Citigroup be put on trial for these crimes!
To add insult to injury, or salt to our wounds, former Citigroup CEO Charles Prince, under whose watch the world economic crisis erupted, said in July 2007:

...as long as the music is playing, you've got to get up and dance. We're still dancing....
End Quote
Mr Prince danced all the way to the bank with his exit package in excess of 29 million dollars. His reward for ruining our economy.
But let's not exclude current CEO Vikram Pandit who received a retention package for 23.2 million dollars this year.
Why if things are going so well for Mr. Pandit and Citigroup are they laying off an additional 4,500 hundred workers in the coming months?

Before coming home, Butterscotch stopped off at the Rabbit for some of Kentucky's finest. She also won a few hearts at the bar, and whinnied angrily at Jacob when he insulted her. Freaky horse.

Algiers, Algeria - Nicknamed El-Bahdja or alternatively Alger la Blanche ("Algiers the White") for the glistening white of its buildings as seen rising up from the sea, Algiers is situated on the west side of a bay of the Mediterranean Sea. The city name is derived from the Arabic word al-jaz??ir, which translates as the islands, referring to the four islands which lay off the city's coast until becoming part of the mainland in 1525.
I hiked the Yellowwood Lake loop in the Yellowwood State Forrest. Southern Indiana is quite hilly, and it was very hot. This 5 mile trail was a serious challenge for my “out of shape” ass. I really need to lay off the cheeseburgers. :-) I managed to get a few shots along the way.
Photoshop new politically incorrect Beatles Albums that didn't make it, 1/24/03. One of five entries I did, four of them uploaded here; none of them finished in the Top 5, but I couldn't lay off of this contest.
This was based on the 70's Capitol compilation "Love Songs". Not much going on here except a text change involving an observation I don't think I was the only one to make. There are some ugly artifacts in here, at the time it was difficult to find a good source image of this album cover.
18 people were later arrested for blocking Market at 9th st

Right, so yesterday I was wibbly-zilla towering over London, and today there are bees, 20-times my size hanging around outside supermarkets. It all feels like some horrible William S. Burroughs meets Hunter S. Thompson suburban nightmare. I've got to lay off the cheese.

Cultivator Teeth are durable powder coated teeth feature a narrow throat and a wide foot for thorough cultivation under the soil surface. One tooth can be used on the toolbar for laying off rows or as many as five for more intense cultivation. Another excellent feature is that they will work on Planet Jr. Wheel Hoe.
Sweeps can be used for weeding and shallow cultivation. These are easily mounted on the tool bar for working between rows. The 8” sweep blades can be adjusted on the tool bar for working with different width rows. The blades are designed to cultivate close to the plant without damaging the roots. The durable steel blades and cast iron are powder coated.

Wolfpit Mine near Wolfpit, Kentucky, in 1925. The head house is visible at upper left.
The head house is where miners would take their loads of coal and have them inspected. The inspector would assess it for the percentage of impurities, weight, and uniformity of coal chunks, and pay the miner accordingly.
McKinney Steel broke ground on the Wolfpit Mine, located near the confluence of Marrowbone Creek and the Left Fork of Wolfpit Branch, in September 1917. In 1918, it built 60 houses there for its employees, which became the community of Wolfpit, Kentucky.
The company paid the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway to extend its road 3.5 miles (5.6 km) up Greasy Creek to allow coal to be transported from the mine.
The company eventually built 185 company-owned homesat Wolfpit, as well as a company-built and -operated elementary school.
In time, the Wolfpit had two mine shafts running. At its height in 1922, the Wolfpit Mine was producing 40,000 short tons (36,000 t) of coal a month.
By the summer of 1926, the lower vein of coal at the mine had been exhausted. In September 1928, the company permanently closed the Wolfpit Mine, laying off 1,000 men.

Had a D&D game tonight and we rode our bikes to our friends house who was hosting, so fun to get to ride together now... the only problem is I busted my knee again so will have to lay off the biking for a while. Grr.
Members of OAPSE 238 and allies rallied in front of the Madison Board of Education to protest the recent privatization of the bus service, which meant lay offs for about 50 members of OAPSE 238.
These are scenes in and around Fries Va next to the New River in Grayson County. Some are of the Washington Cotton Mills which vanished in 1989 laying off 1700 employees. Many are the mill houses left behind from the mills employees.
On Thursday May 30th, Sun-Times Media laid off 28 people including photo editors and the professional journalism staff. Included were well known names like Al Podgorski, Scott Stewart, Ernie Torres, Tom Cruze and John H. White who had been with the paper for thirty-five years and won a Pulitzer Prize in 1982.
The Times, which is owned by Wrapports L.L.C., an investment company, said that the action resulted from a need to shift to video work and because people were relying more
on mobile devices to stay informed. Also planned was to have reporters use IPhones to take pictures and hire freelance photographers to do the rest.
The laid-off photographers are members of the Chicago Newspaper Guild which was in the process of negotiating a new contract with the paper. The company had recently told the union that no lay-offs of photographers were planned. The Guild planned to take legal action to restore the jobs.
This was one of the neatest things I've ever gotten to watch! The Boats are 44 footers taking the surf head on and getting completely engulfed! A 2nd boat was laying off to the side in case anything went wrong. The boat you see hear did do the roll over and it happened just as I ran out of film. By the time I was ready to shoot again they were done! alw

On July 26th Labor Secretary Hilda Solis and Communications Workers of America (CWA) President Larry Cohen spoke to a very-well-attended "Bring Jobs Home" rally in San Francisco.
The event was organized by the California Labor Federation and the CWA. There was a very large crowd at Union Square, with a brass band warming up the crowd ("Solidarity forever, our union makes us strong!), and several enthusiastic speakers.The rally was one of many around the country, part of the AFL-CIO's Bring Jobs Home campaign.
In the past decade, more than 50,000 manufacturing sites closed and 6 million American manufacturing jobs were lost to offshoring. More than 500,000 call-center jobs have also been shipped out of the country! Our government actually gives tax breaks to companies that close factories here, lay off the workers, move the machines to other countries, then ship the same goods back here to sell in the same stores! That's called "trade." As a result there is pressure on wages, and people are afraid to speak up for themselves or organize unions for fear of losing their own jobs.

Rainforest Action Network
Bank of America, Not With Our Money!
Funding dirty coal? Not with our money.
Activists hung a banner on Bank of America's Charlotte, NC headquarters to tell the bank: "Not with our money!" People are fed up with Bank of America putting profits before people and planet. The bank is the largest funder of the US coal industry and the leading foreclosure on Americans' homes. Meanwhile, BoA is laying off 30,000 workers and hiking fees left and right. Enough is enough.
As the morning started to slip away four other activists barricaded the main entrance door to BOA's corporate headquarters and held a banner that said "Bank of Coal"
This was all followed up by protest march to the corner of Tryon and Trade Street, where the Rainforest Action Network had several speakers speak before marching over to BOA
You too can tell Bank of America, "Not with our money!"
