This is a telling glimpse of how disparate the gap is between the top 1 percent and the bottom 99 percent...

If a person earns a million dollars a year, a majority would consider that person to be rich. Even someone who earns $250,000 a year would be considered by most people to be doing really well.

The protest group, UK Uncut, yesterday hosted 40 direct actions across the country - the most significant number the group has made since many of its members were arrested outside Fortnum and Mason on the March 26th March for the Alternative. Yesterday's actions were subtitled the "Emergency Operation" on the group's website and were directed against the Coalition's wavering reforms of the NHS headed by Andrew Lansley.

The 2010 Senate elections are barely a month away, and Democrats across the country are getting worried.

In a new poll released last month by Public Policy Polling, Quantifying the Enthusiasm Gap, pollsters have found that in 10 key Senate and gubernatorial races across the country, Republicans are leading by wider margins.

Although the country is more or less split in half between Republican and Democratic party supporters when all eligible voters are asked (about 43% for both, according to the latest NBC/WSJ poll), when likely voters are polled, the Republicans take a substantial lead by roughly 9 points.

On the evening of July 5, Olympia will host the Pastors for Peace caravan as they begin their 21rst Friendshipment of material aid to Cuba. The caravan is intended to bring awareness to the illegal U.S. blockade on Cuba. The active blockade stems from obsolete Cold War views and a self-imposed Cuban exile community in Florida that deprive people in Cuba of food, medicine and construction supplies.
