Boulder, Colo. – (February 24, 2011) – Boulder Digital Arts, an organization dedicated to empowering the creative and technology communities in the Rocky Mountain region, opened the doors to its new affordable, professional and creative coworking space on Feb. 1, 2011. The new coworking facility, conveniently located in central Boulder, is the first of its kind to focus specifically on building a community of individuals involved in the creative and digital industries.
“Coworking is redefining the way we do work and has become the workplace of choice for many people,” says Bruce Borowsky, who helped found BDA seven years ago and has built its reputation as a national hub for practical skills training in video production, digital photography, web design, social media and other digital disciplines. “While other coworking spaces are broad and unspecific in their industry focus, BDA’s coworking facility will be unique in that the space is specifically geared toward the creative and digital communities. We have created an environment that will inspire innovation, encourage collaboration and foster productivity.”
With the economic downturn of two years ago forcing many people to reinvent themselves, add new skills to their repertoire and even start new careers, coworking has been gaining traction in recent years and is very often the best choice for the growing numbers of isolated telecommuters, solopreneurs, and members of the creative and digital communities.
For information and specifics about BDA’s coworking space, call 303-800-4647 or visit the Boulder Digital Arts website.
Coworking Options:
Boulder Digital Arts new coworking facility offers both private offices and desks available for rent, as well as short-term passes.
Wisconsin Solidarity in Your Area: Rally to Save the American Dream
Where: 66 cities including all state capitals
When: Tomorrow mid-day
What: In cities across the nation, including every state capital, we’ll come together to stand in solidarity with the people of Wisconsin and rally to Save the American Dream. Teachers, nurses, firefighters, students, police officers and others protesting in Wisconsin have occupied the Capitol building and streets of Madison for the past nine days, and now their protest is going national.
-
Whatever you’ve got planned for Saturday afternoon, reschedule it.
Teachers, nurses, firefighters, students, police officers and others protesting in Wisconsin have occupied the Capitol building and streets of Madison for the past nine days.
On Saturday at noon, their protest is going national. In cities across the nation, including every state capital, we’ll come together to stand in solidarity with the people of Wisconsin.
This time the Republicans have gone too far in their attempts to bust unions, slash state budgets, and give tax breaks to their wealthy friends.
So on Saturday we’ll stand up to say that we’re sick of the attacks on workers’ rights. That we’re sick of an economy that showers corporate executives with bonuses while squeezing middle-class families. That we still believe in the American Dream. And that we’re willing to fight for it.

The human, animal and environmental costs of
the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan are
incalculable. Below are the fiscal costs, about
which corporate war profiteer media and the
USG's spokespersons remain silent.
The 3 Trillion Dollar War by Nobel economist Joseph Stiglitz
was written several years ago.
That figure is way out of date now,
and did not include Afghanistan.
Over 9.5 years, the 12 trillion dollar wars in Iraq, Afghanistan
and Pakistan have been 1.26 trillion a year, 105 billion a month
and 3.5 billion dollars a day.
Major corporate tv, radio, and newspapers in the US
continue to suppress coverage of the human, environmental,
and financial costs of the US wars when discussing the
bankruptcy of states and cities. Among the long list of these
criminals is Mitt Romney who with money from the LDS
Church caused Bain Capital to buy Clear Channel Radio, a
network which carries Rush Limbaugh and many other warmongers. ABC Disney carries
warmonger Sean Hannity on radio. Rupert Murdoch carries
him on tv.
The three trillion dollar war a book written several years ago... and about Iraq only
The cost of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts have grown to staggering proportionsJoseph Stiglitz and Linda Bilmes
The Bush Administration was wrong about the benefits of the war and it was wrong about the costs of the war. The president and his advisers expected a quick, inexpensive conflict. Instead, we have a war that is costing more than anyone could have imagined.

The United States Census had some surprising outcomes. One of them is changes to Congressional representation. There are 12 seats that will belong to different states in the House of Representatives from now on. Republicans are likely to realize probably the most increases, as the brand new seats are in strong Republican districts.
Census makes House switch 12 seats
Some areas had to have changed in the number of seats within the House of Representatives, based on the Washington Post. This was due to the U.S. Census. As states have a number of seats within the House of Representatives, shifts in population can mean seats gained or lost. In all, 12 seats are switching, affecting 18 states. Probably the most seats were added to Texas. In fact, four House seats were added. Florida gained House seats also. It got 2 extra. Arizona, Georgia, South Carolina, Nevada, Utah, and Washington State all gained one additional seat in the lower house. A single set was lost be Illinois, Iowa, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. New York and Ohio lost also. 2 seats were lost from both.
Human population expansion slowed down throughout last census
There has been less population growth within the United States then before. AOL News reports this to be observed in the 2010 Census. Since 2000, there has only been a 9.7 percent population expansion of about 308,745,538 people. It was not that low since the Great Depression even. Nevada's population rose the most, growing by 35.1 percent, while Michigan was the only state to lose individuals, having shrunk by 0.6 percent. A 14.3 percent increase was shown in the Southern states. Only 3.2 percent expansion increase was shown in the Northeast states.
A Martin Luther King Day parade in Spokane, Wash., was almost the scene of a tragedy. Spokane workers found an explosive device near the parade route. Before the celebration began, city employees for Spokane discovered a backpack which had wiring, and the police were alerted. The culprit hasn't been found, and the reason is unknown. The FBI has taken over the case.
Before parade, Spokane police defuse bomb
In Spokane, Wash., a Martin Luther King Jr. Day parade was very nearly turned into the scene of a terrible tragedy, as employees of the city of Spokane found a bomb, according to MSNBC. There were city employees looking at the parade route about a half hour before the start when the Spokane explosive device was found. An unattended backpack that was sitting on a metal bench was found by city workers. The backpack stuck out because it had suspicious looking wires coming out of it, which caused the city workers to call the Spokane Police. The parade was delayed and rerouted as the explosive device disposal unit came to get rid of the machine.
Many would have been hurt
The bomb going off would have “inflict multiple casualties” as it was “viable” which the Spokesman Review reports. This was after the Federal Bureau of Investigation reports. The crowd would have had shrapnel blown into it depending on the way the bomb was positioned. It was facing marchers within the crowd. Also within the backpack were 2 t-shirts. “Treasure Island Spring Break 2009” and “Stevens County Relay for Life 2010” were what they said. The pipe explosive device found in the backpack, in accordance with ABC, was rigged to be detonated remotely by radio.

Two men accused of butchering a British soldier had been investigated previously by security services, a British official said Thursday, as investigators searched several locations and tried to determine whether the men were part of a wider plot to instill terror on the streets of London.
The men, suspected of hacking the off-duty soldier to death while horrified bystanders watched, boasted of their exploits and warned of more violence in images recorded on witnesses' mobile phones. Holding bloody knives and a meat cleaver, they waited for the arrival of police, who shot them in the legs, according to a passerby who tried to save the dying soldier.
Prime Minister David Cameron vowed that Britain would not be cowed by the horrific violence, and that it would reject "the poisonous narrative of extremism on which this violence feeds." Indeed, there were few signs of alarm in the British capital, which has been hit by terrorist attacks during a long confrontation with the Irish Republican Army and more recently by al-Qaida-inspired attacks.
"It's hateful, it's horrific and upsetting. But it doesn't seem to have made much of a difference," Christian White, 43, said at King's Cross station, close to the site of a subway bomb in July 2005. "Londoners are used to living in a city where life is complicated."
Even so, security was increased at military barracks and installations in the capital, with extra armed guards added in many cases. Police said extra patrols were added at sensitive areas, including places of worship, transport hubs and congested areas.
Wednesday's attack took place near a military barracks in the Woolwich area of south London.
There was a highway banner protest today at the Fort Collins / Windsor exit and I-25. Highway patrol approached us and we told the officer we are within our rights to hold the banner as long as we don't attach it to anything, it doesn't hang over the freeway and we are not blocking traffic. After initially telling us we had to leave, he later agreed with us that we were with in our rights to be there. (He checked with his supervisor to confirm what we told him).
The protest is about the re-defining of Corporations with the same rights as human beings with the ability to flood our political system with money thereby corrupting democracy. May 10th is the 127th anniversary of the Santa Clara vs. Southern Pacific Railroad decision established that a railroad corporation possessed equal protection "rights" identical to living human beings under the 14th Amendment of the Constitution. The 14th Amendment was a post-Civil War decision specifically intended to apply to freed slaves.
Move to amend Fort Collins will continue to organize with the aim of establishing a grass roots movement that will eventually be able to purge our political system of the corruptive / corrosive influence of money. Many people involved in Move to amend and Move to amend Fort Collins have been involved in the Occupy movement and realize that Corporate power is only one aspect of a sick and dysfunctional system that must be changed.
Pentagon Loses Court Case over Refusal to Release Names of SOA/ WHINSEC Graduates
Oakland, CA – In a rare reflection of judicial independence, United States District Judge Phyllis J. Hamilton from the Northern District of California ordered the Pentagon to release the names of who trains and teaches at the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation (SOA/WHINSEC), a U.S. military training school for Latin American soldiers that has been connected to torturers, death squads and military dictators throughout the Americas. Human rights activists had taken the U.S. government to court over its refusal to release the information, and won.
Read the court ruling here: SOAW.org/judgment
SOA Watch compiled the names, course, rank, country of origin, and dates attended for every soldier and instructor at the SOA/ WHINSEC from 1946 to 2003. After researchers exposed many cases of known human rights abusers attending the WHINSEC (despite claims that the "new" school was committed to human rights), and shared this research with Congressional decision-makers, the Department of Defense (DOD) refused to disclose any future information about students or teachers at the WHINSEC. The human rights community and the U.S. Congress did not agree with the decision. In 2008 and 2009, the House of Representatives passed an amendment to the Defense Authorization bill demanding that the DOD release this information. President Obama signed this measure into law. However, SOA/ WHINSEC supporters in Congress managed to slip in the caveat that Secretary of Defense Robert Gates could issue a waiver to ignore the public's right to know and refuse to release the information, if he "determines it to be in the national interest." Predictably, Obama's Secretary of Defense used the waiver to deny human rights organizations and the public access to any more information.

Yesterday, two holdout vulture funds, including Paul Singer’s NML Capital, were in a New York Federal court versus Argentina. The Financial Times has dubbed the proceeding the “‘the trial of the century’ in sovereign debt restructuring.” After the hearing, judges at the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said that will issue their ruling in the coming weeks.
Jubilee USA Network is bringing attention to the effect that this case could have on poor countries: “If these vulture hedge funds win, it will mean they will more aggressively target poor countries in fragile financial recovery. If we win, it will mean that it will be harder for vulture funds to target the monies that develop social infrastructure in many poor countries,” said Eric LeCompte, Jubilee USA Network’s Executive Director.
The faith community and other groups, organized by Jubilee USA, held a vigil in concern for poor people affected by vulture funds during the proceeding outside the hearing. Vigils also took place in London and Buenos Aires.
In 2001, when Argentina defaulted on roughly $81 billion, NML Capital purchased some of Argentina’s debt on a secondary market. When Argentina defaulted, they restructured with some of their creditors in 2005 and 2010 but holdout creditors, led by NML Capital, rejected the proposal and sued Argentina for the full amount in NY courts – thus, naming NML Capital a holdout vulture fund. Vulture funds buy the debt of poor countries or countries in financial recovery for pennies on the dollar and then sue to make as much as a 400% profit off the backs of the poor. Jubilee USA Network introduced bipartisan legislation in 2009 to stop vulture funds from making a profit off of poor countries.
Pro-choice Production Offers New Venue for Social Justice in an Engaging Activism Based Theater Experience
“Words of Choice,” a dynamic pro-choice theater piece is bringing its show to New York City this March in honor of Women’s History Month and the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. In addition to the two performances, the show is available via live-streaming to audiences across the nation and the globe.
“Words of Choice” weaves together dozens of stories of reproductive rights through poetry, spoken word, oral history, theater and journalism. It is performed by three actors, and showcases a variety of serious, comedic and contemplative pieces. As part of the first-ever WiredArts Fest, Words of Choice will be showcased to hundreds of activists with the shared goal of reproductive and social justice.
“Women’s rights and reproductive freedoms are still under attack. As activists and ambassadors of change, everyone involved with Words of Choice is committed to moving public sentiment and influencing policy makers. We created this event because the use of theater is a way to transmit the pro-choice message, opening hearts and minds, and empowering the movement for women’s full equality and rights,” said Cindy Cooper, creator of Words of Choice.
“Words of Choice” will be performed on March 1 at 7 pm EST and March 2 at 3 pm EST at The Secret Theater in Long Island City. As part of the WiredArts Fest, the live streaming audience will be able to participate simultaneously with tweeting, instant messaging, photo shots and Facebook. After the shows a panel discussion will take place to discuss the pieces and the state of reproductive and social justice.
