Want to be a Summer Organizer for President Obama???
Apr 13th
Next year, President Obama will join thousands of other Democrats on ballots in all 50 states.
These next 19 months will provide some of the best opportunities for community organizing that this movement has ever seen — and we’re looking for a few more folks to join the Summer Organizer Program and take the lead.
From June 4th to August 6th, summer organizers will help lay the groundwork for 2012 across the country, planning events, registering voters, and building neighborhood teams.
These organizers are the future leaders of this movement — will you be one of them?
If you haven’t already, apply here by Monday, April 18th, or pass this message along to anyone else who might be interested.
If selected, you’ll hit the ground running with top-notch training to learn how to recruit new volunteers, manage resources wisely, and run an efficient operation.
Then you’ll get to work in the states. Maybe you’ll run a local strategy session in Philadelphia. Maybe you’ll register voters at a concert in Las Vegas. Maybe you’ll empower a supporter to become a team leader in Dallas.
Or maybe you’ll help fire up a big crowd before the President takes the stage.
No experience is necessary, and anyone can apply — but you need to do so by midnight on Monday, April 18th:

“Take out the Trash and don’t talk back!” Boulder!
Apr 13th
2011 special trash service dates announced
According to Boulder Revised Code (BRC) 1981 Section 6-3-9, property owners and managers of rental properties in the University Hill and Goss/Grove neighborhoods are required to contract with trash haulers for pick-up service for the following dates in 2011:
According to Boulder Revised Code (BRC) 1981 Section 6-3-9, property owners and managers of rental properties in the University Hill and Goss/Grove neighborhoods are required to contract with trash haulers for pick-up service for the following dates in 2011:
- Spring: Wednesday, May 4, through Monday, May 9; and
- Fall: Saturday, July 30, through Monday, Aug. 29.
The University Hill neighborhood boundaries are from Arapahoe Avenue to Baseline Road and from Broadway Street to Ninth Street, and the Goss/Grove neighborhood boundaries are from Canyon Boulevard to Arapahoe Avenue and from Folsom Street to 15th Street.
The Special Trash Service code requires that properties in these neighborhoods sign up for the program. The City of Boulder’s Environmental and Zoning Enforcement Office (EZEO) will issue a summons to property owners and managers of rental properties in these two neighborhoods if they are not signed up for the program, regardless of the extent of trash violations on their property. The fine for a violation of this section of the code is $250 for a first offense.
The Special Trash Service code requirement was implemented in 2003 as a result of a community group recommendation. During tenant move-in and move-out periods, which occur at the beginning and end of the University of Colorado’s academic year, the Goss/Grove and University Hill neighborhoods experience significant trash impacts. This program was initially developed as a pilot program in 2002. Its success resulted in the development of the specific code requirement.
For additional information, contact the EZEO at 303-441-3239 or visit www.bouldercolorado.gov/EZEO.
Tuning up the Denver Police Department
Apr 13th
“Tuning someone up” is universal police slang for roughing up a citizen who deserves it. In the past year Denver Police Officers have been caught on tape “tuning up” citizens without regard to cameras presence. A bold arrogant move by individual officers. Cops pull those kinds of stunts with Mexican and black working class or criminal class people who they feel have no status, money or recourse.
Pretty much if you are the wrong color, or class and you are a little out of line…you need to watch your ass around the Denver PD. They have always had that reputation.
“On Monday, safety manager Charles Garcia terminated officers Ricky Nixon and Kevin Devine, who were accused of excessive force for an incident caught on camera outside the Denver Diner in 2009. The two were dismissed for “commission of a deceptive act.” Garcia found that the reports they filed after the arrests did not match other witness accounts.” according to the Denver Post
Garcia is the new public safety manager overseeing fire and police and he’s not in the mood for any bullshit. Apparently, he’s fired six officers so far this year and has sped up the firing process by eliminating police review board. He just fires em. The police Union and it’s lawyers are fit to be tied but word is on the street, if you are a Denver cop you better get some sensitivity training or find another Job. Pro wresting is hiring.
We think this is all good. If it didn’t happen only increased violence by disenfranchised citizens toward the police would result. Los Angeles is a prime example. The police lost that city in the 80’s under police chief Daryl Gates and it took 20 years to get it back. When people feel threaten by police they start shooting back as was a daily occurrence in LA. We don’t want that to happen here.
Boulder PD instituted a policy of Community Policing when tom Koby was chief and it has been carried on by Mark Beckner. As a result the community is a lot nicer.
