Journalist Luke Rudkowski was attacked by police Wednesday night while trying to document the Occupy Wall Street arrests in NY. NYPD used pepper spray, batons, and brute force to move protesters away from the entrance to Wall Street after many tried to push through police barricades. Rumors immediately circulated that police provocateurs dressed as protesters were to blame for the incident.

POULSBO — Jackie Hudson, a Poulsbo-based Dominican nun who spent decades demonstrating in support of nuclear disarmament, died at Harrison Medical Center on Wednesday. She was 76.

Hudson died from a type of blood cancer, according to the Kitsap County Coroner's Office.

She was diagnosed in June, said Sue Ablao, who has demonstrated in favor of nuclear disarmament with Hudson since the 1990s.

When a group of Washington state peace activists discovered that one of their fellow organizers was in fact a military informant, they decided to take their case to the courts. The activists, part of the Port Militarization Resistance movement that attempted to stop military shipments from operating out of the state's public ports in Olympia and Tacoma, uncovered the informant after he had infiltrated their group for over two years. Many considered the informant to be a close friend.

Olympia, WA – On October 25, activists from Olympia Rising Tide hung two banners at the Evergreen State College in opposition to a proposed biomass gasification facility. Olympia Rising Tide opposes biomass because it is a false solution to climate change and would lead to a massive resurgence of clear-cut logging in the Pacific Northwest and elsewhere.

This year the Democrats are going to lose but dissident voices can win. We have a new and powerful excuse to boycott the elections, fighting corporate
power, but it has to be organized and an empowered boycott. This is a call against apathy, against the corporate political parties and for an empowered non-voter.

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.
