OCCUPY TULELAKE, CA— In San Francisco they are putting out a call for more people to show up and be part of OCCUPY SAN FRANCISCO at 101 Market Street.
Right now I have just clicked on OCCUPY SAN FRANCISCO from http://www.livestream.com/occupyfdsf?utm_source=website-channel-page&utm_medium=related
The live stream just went off and is no longer live streaming but I am watching live streams that were posted and being played on the above link. I will monitor the web site and see what has been going on at OCCUPY SAN FRANCISCO.
They are discussing that they have portable potties and are need of batteries. The mayor sent a letter stating that he is supporting OCCUPY SAN FRANCISCO because he supports free speech and free assembly. I have no idea as to the date the mayor sent the letter or what day I am watching because that information has not been posted. I am just now monitoring OCCUPY SAN FRANCISCO site for the first time. They got their portable potties and shower facilities today in one of their parks. Information is coming from the live chat room.
According to the information I am getting today 11 people were arrested in front of Wells Fargo for blocking Wells Fargo but they have been released and rejoined back at the OCCUPY SAN FRANCISCO camp. That was today Oct 12 in San Francisco and the report was on NBC from the information I am getting. More updates as they come in from OCCUPY SAN FRANCISCO.

Occupy Chico Protesters Begin Camping in City Plaza
Please share and get the word out...
There is a news report from KRCR Redding, CA about Chico CA starting OCCUPY CHICO where you can read what has happened there below:
Occupy Chico Protesters Begin Camping in City Plaza
CHICO, Calif. -- The Occupy Chico protesters have begun camping in City Plaza. About a dozen people spent the night in the plaza to show their solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street protesters in New York.
Members of Occupy Chico were told by park rangers this morning that camping isn't allowed in city parks.
Protesters say they're willing to work with the city, but they have no plans to end their demonstration.
“We want our democracy back,” said John Brockman. “You can't have so much concentration of wealth in the hands of so few people and have a healthy democracy. That's one of the principals at the core of our action here.”
Brockman says the protesters are hoping to stay in the City Plaza as long as there are protests in New York.

OCCUPY TULELAKE, CA— Since I live in a very small community with a population of 1000 people where camping out in Tulelake would serve no purpose but it goes without saying that a group of supporters could gather in Roper Park from time to time and meet. I am the first member of OCCUPY TULELAKE.
I have not had the time yet today to monitor what has been going on at OWS New York but I do have links that I gathered to share and here they are below:

Day 26 of OWS— a day of chants
Tulelake, Ca— A day in New York City watching the live cam web feed of the chants being spoken. Chants such as “How do we fix the deficit today. End the War Tax the Rich.” “We got sold out, they got bailed out” “WE R the 99%” “In your face @ your house”
OCCUPY WALL STREET had a march that lead to the homes of the billionaires and millionaires on Park Ave and throughout the wealthy neighborhood of New York City. Where OWS stopped at each house on their list of homes. Placing a Large Check in the amount of 5 BILLION DOLLARS and then chanting as they stopped in front of each of the Billionaire and Millionaires homes. The 5 BILLION DOLLARS represent the amount of the cuts the City of New York will lose when the tax cut expires on December 31, 2011.
Seeing history live in front of you on the live cam site as the protesters are marching and chanting while walking down New York’s finest streets. Where there are doormen at some of the doors leading to their residences and at others where the check was placed on their front porch and pictures taken of the Large 5 BILLION DOLLAR Check on their front door.
The tax cuts is the same 5 BILLION DOLLARS in Cuts New York City will have to go without. Which means the loss of teachers, firefighters, police officers being laid off and the list goes on.
http://www.livestream.com/globalrevolution
The above web cam link is where you can view OCCUPY WALL STREET and the other OCCUPY CITIES when they are live. Instead of watching the corporate media where you get sound bites of OSW you can actually see if for yourself and experience the history. It is not a perfect system so don’t expect more than they can offer. You can even read the live chat as it goes by.
OCCUPY WALL STREET is doing a great job with what they have to work with. The live feed sometimes goes on and off but its worth the time to watch history happening before your very eyes. And what better way to do it if you cannot be there yourself. And I am with them in spirit and support for this peaceful movement to OCCUPY WALL STREET the same way I hope you are too.

Day 25 of OWS OCCUPY Boston attack
Tulelake, CA— In Boston there was an attack by the Boston Police department making arrests. There are 200 police officers beating Veterans for Peace and arresting them. All taking place in front of the world and those us who are watching it live on http://www.livestream.com/globalrevolution web cam site. At 11:35 pm there are over 8000 plus watching Boston live.
There have been over a 100-200 arrested in Boston with high bails being set. The protesters were chanting, “who do you protect, who do you serve”. The police warned them to vacate the park and when the protesters ignored the warnings. The Boston PD started rounding up the protesters where there were some 200 protesters in the park. They arrested Veterans for Peace, a peaceful group of Veterans. And they were shouting, “shame, shame, shame”. The Boston Police then torn up their tents and threw their tents, chairs into waiting garbage trucks. They separated a group of women into an undisclosed area.
There also rumors that OCCUPY Seattle is having their tents torn down. Apparently the mayor has ordered the police to stand down. OCCUPY St Louis checked in for a while on the live feed where they have be given 24-hours to vacate the park. The same with Seattle they have been given a 24-hour notice to vacate.
The live feeds have been going from Boston when it all began to the other live feeds on http://www.livestream.com/globalrevolution the web site link. The live feeds are reading what is being posted in the live Mirc chat room that has moderators who do their best to keep out the trolls or any form of political party chat.
It is 1:30 AM now on Tuesday Oct 11th. I am still observing the OWS feeds on http://www.livestream.com/globalrevolution web cam site. As the story unfolds in the different cities that are being called OCCUPY in Front of the cities name. One of the names as example is OCCUPY BOSTON for the OWS movement across the USA. There has been support world wide on the link mentioned above.
The live feed has gone back to New York City at the Liberty Square. They are having a march at 1:45 AM is solidarity of OCCUPY BOSTON from New York City OWS. 40 or so people organized a march on short notice in the early morning hours in New York City. They are marching by WALL STREET to make a point that they are not leaving. They are marching then back to camp. The major concern for OWS is the cold weather that soon will be getting colder.
They are marching from Liberty Plaza to Wall Street and then back to camp. They have been told by NYPD they had to stay behind the barricades and keep walking. The estimate of the marchers is at 75 protesters for this march in the wee hours of the early morning. Which is now 5:05 AM ET in New York City. And New York City wanted to let Boston know they were in solidity with them. And so another day starts with the OWS in New York City.

Declaration of the Occupation of New York City
Declaration of the Occupation of New York City THIS DOCUMENT WAS ACCEPTED BY THE NYC GENERAL ASSEMBLY ON SEPTEMBER 29, 2011 As we gather together in solidarity to express a feeling of mass injustice, we must not lose sight of what brought us together. We write so that all people who feel wronged by the corporate forces of the world can know that we are your allies. As one people, united, we acknowledge the reality: that the future of the human race requires the cooperation of its members; that our system must protect our rights, and upon corruption of that system, it is up to the individuals to protect their own rights, and those of their neighbors; that a democratic government derives its just power from the people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the people and the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the process is determined by economic power. We come to you at a time when corporations, which place profit over people, self-interest over justice, and oppression over equality, run our governments. We have peaceably assembled here, as is our right, to let these facts be known. They have taken our houses through an illegal foreclosure process, despite not having the original mortgage. They have taken bailouts from taxpayers with impunity, and continue to give Executives exorbitant bonuses. They have perpetuated inequality and discrimination in the workplace based on age, the color of one’s skin, sex, gender identity and sexual orientation. They have poisoned the food supply through negligence, and undermined the farming system through monopolization. They have profited off of the torture, confinement, and cruel treatment of countless animals, and actively hide these practices. They have continuously sought to strip employees of the right to negotiate for better pay and safer working conditions. They have held students hostage with tens of thousands of dollars of debt on education, which is itself a human right. They have consistently outsourced labor and used that outsourcing as leverage to cut workers’ healthcare and pay. They have influenced the courts to achieve the same rights as people, with none of the culpability or responsibility. They have spent millions of dollars on legal teams that look for ways to get them out of contracts in regards to health insurance. They have sold our privacy as a commodity. They have used the military and police force to prevent freedom of the press. They have deliberately declined to recall faulty products endangering lives in pursuit of profit. They determine economic policy, despite the catastrophic failures their policies have produced and continue to produce. They have donated large sums of money to politicians, who are responsible for regulating them. They continue to block alternate forms of energy to keep us dependent on oil. They continue to block generic forms of medicine that could save people’s lives or provide relief in order to protect investments that have already turned a substantial profit. They have purposely covered up oil spills, accidents, faulty bookkeeping, and inactive ingredients in pursuit of profit. They purposefully keep people misinformed and fearful through their control of the media. They have accepted private contracts to murder prisoners even when presented with serious doubts about their guilt. They have perpetuated colonialism at home and abroad. They have participated in the torture and murder of innocent civilians overseas. They continue to create weapons of mass destruction in order to receive government contracts. * To the people of the world, We, the New York City General Assembly occupying Wall Street in Liberty Square, urge you to assert your power. Exercise your right to peaceably assemble; occupy public space; create a process to address the problems we face, and generate solutions accessible to everyone. To all communities that take action and form groups in the spirit of direct democracy, we offer support, documentation, and all of the resources at our disposal. Join us and make your voices heard! *These grievances are not all-inclusive.

"I am a EU citizen and I live in Germany. Very happily I might add. Some 30-40 years ago, people here in Europe envied the US. The land of the American dream. Made in the USA stood for quality products.
Funny, following the reporting on the Occupy Wall Street protests I have been trying to find a product actually made in the USA. A car? GM sells Chevy´s here. Made in Korea. Ford? From every continent but not the from USA. Chrysler? now owned by the Italians, come from Mexico. OK, let´s try electronics. Apple or Dell, or any other brand, proudly made in China. Home appliances, toys, same story.
OK, I could still buy a Boeing. Too bad, I don´t hold a CPL and my company doesn´t own private jets. We don´t need them. Yes I drive a Mercedes and have a spare BMW in the garage. There are not company cars, I own them and use them for my business trips. We manufacture our products in … Germany. Electronic HVAC controls. And I am the CEO. My work force knows that we will never source out our production to places like China. Simply because we can make a better product with our work force here that is proud of making the best controls in the business. We have a highly motivated and highly productive work force.
As a corporate chief you make a lot of decisions. But if you make them based on shareholders interests you are bound to make the wrong decisions. Corporations live by their customers. Not their banks and shareholders. Let alone governments.
What´s the point in lobbying governments? If I can´t satisfy my customers why on earth should I think any government can?
CEO´s spending millions of dollars lobbying the government instead of spending their company resources on satisfying customers should be fired, yesterday rather than today. Not just in the US, in Europe as well."

History in the making
Tulelake, CA— For those that are unaware there is a movement going on called, “OCCUPY WALL STREET" taking place in New York City and to date in 26 cities across the USA.
I realize Tulelake is not a large city but it has to start somewhere and I decided to do my part by posting information on the TNT Blog for others to spread the word about OWS.
They have live cams of the events taking place in New York City and other cities across the USA. There are no leaders, they do things as a consensus of WE THE PEOPLE.
Where 99% of the people who are out of work and unemployed and being left out by the bailouts that took place with Wall Street and the banking industry. The 1% is not paying their fair share of taxes. It is people like you and me who are paying all the taxes. While those that occupy the top 1% pay little or nothing in income taxes.
This movement started and began on Sept 17 and they are now in day 24 of the peaceful protest. There have been arrests made mostly in New York. 14 people were arrested in Sacramento. There are events in Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco and other cities. There are protests from as far away from New York on the west coast of the USA. From Seattle, WA to Portland, OR and cities as mentioned of those in California.
It is my plan now to help to keep people informed as to what is going on. OWS is a peaceful non-violent movement standing up for the 99% of us. From teachers to janitors from all walks of life who are part of the 99% who are losing their houses due to the financial situation we are all up against. With wages going down and prices going up such as groceries and gas.
To get involved and get more information for yourself you can go to http://www.livestream.com/globalrevolution and live chat on MRIC. I will do my best to keep people informed on the TNT blog where comments can be posted and questions asked.
If you have access to a blog you can do the same thing I am trying to do by getting the word out about what is happening with OWS. I am doing my part all from a small town in California called Tulelake, CA with a population of 1000 people approximately. So if I can do my part you can do your part by getting the word out the same way I am from my little blog. If you do not have a blog you can get one for yourself and do the same thing.
Every form of communication is being used at the OWS and they are following all the laws of the cities where the movements are taking place. Where like in New York they cannot use microphones. So they are chanting and others in their groups chat to others what is being communicated. They are even using solar batteries for their live cams since there is no way to have access to power supplies. There is another web site where live chat twitter is being used http://www.adbusters.org/campaigns/occupywallstreet
This morning two people were arrested for just using their cameras in New York City and I will write more about that situation as more information becomes available.
