red slider comment-58039 2011-09-29T00:42:34Z 2011-09-29T00:42:34Z thank you so much, Anabelle, for covering this event. You covered it perfectly - just the right touch to let people get the feel of the the event. red slider 2011-09-29T00:42:34Z red slider comment-58038 2011-09-29T00:25:56Z 2011-09-29T00:25:56Z Trina, thanx much for filling in some of the blanks. Saturday was an incredible start and down payment on what we all hope will be A Voice Heard Round the World and a new day and way to change the world into a saner, healthier and life affirming place. Poets have moved from being what Ginsberg called "town criers" to more nearly one of first-responders - We are on the front lines, now - and we have a truly big megaphone - 95 countries, 650 cities and more than 750 events! That's global, in anybodies book. Sacramento's part was small this year, but Bob Stanley, the poets and others who organized our offering did a tremendous job on very short notice. There was so much more we wanted to do, but now we have a whole year to plan for the next Day of Change for Sacramento. PLEASE: anyone wishing to help with the planning an organizing for next year send me a note and I'll start a list (you can go to http://poems4change.org and just click the email link - let me know you want to help - you don't have to be poets to help organize) The world-wide day of change was quite breathtaking, really. For an idea of just how many and what kind of events there were, go to http://100tcp.org and to facebook's https://www.facebook.com/groups/100TPCHub/ to get a glimpse of what went on - I am still stunned by the scope of this project that was started by Michael Rothenberg and Terri Carrion. Truly a project worthy of the new millennium. red slider 2011-09-29T00:25:56Z red slider comment-58037 2011-09-29T00:24:14Z 2011-09-29T00:24:14Z Trina, thanx much for filling in some of the blanks.

If you like what we are doing, please offer to help - with your experience and abilities. We need all the help we can get - The CEAV Project red slider 2010-03-11T19:37:38Z red slider comment-22747 2010-03-01T17:30:22Z 2010-03-01T17:30:22Z The CEAV Project notes that it would be good for all Sacramento Press articles referring to events such as Council Meetings include the actual date and time of the event somewhere in the body of their article (in this case, if memory serves, the Council meeting referred to took place on February 9th). We also urge others interested in these issues to examine the deeper issues of the story by reading our Sacramento News &Review Essay in their February 4th issue, and by going to our blog at www.stopcalexpo.com and website at www.ceav.us red slider 2010-03-01T17:30:22Z red slider comment-22740 2010-03-01T00:01:15Z 2010-03-01T00:01:15Z It is interesting that the arena project and the 'green initiative' appear in the same speech and this article, but nowhere is it suggested how these two items might intersect. Indeed, they not only intersect, they collide, but no one seems to notice. To see how these two items are headed on different trains for the same train-wreck, we urge you to visit our blog at www.stopcalexpo.wordpress.com and see for yourself. Its a mistake we need to avoid for the sake of our great-grandchildren. They won't forgive us if we don't. - thank you, The CEAV Project red slider 2010-03-01T00:01:15Z red slider comment-22492 2010-02-21T02:59:15Z 2010-02-21T02:59:15Z We urge readers to go to the 'Arena Financing' link at our website, www.ceav.us to consider suggestions which not only add to the value and benefit of the arena, but substantially improve financing and underwriting potentials no matter which proposal is chosen. CEAV strong opposes turning any part of the last major piece of urban public commons left in California over to private developers. For that, The CEAV Project also offers an exciting and far more profitable alternative, for the region and for the state. red slider 2010-02-21T02:59:15Z red slider comment-21842 2010-02-07T04:17:45Z 2010-02-07T04:17:45Z There's another side to the story (one the Bee refuses to print). We can only urge you to read our 'Arena Resistance' article in the current Sacramento News & Review (feb 4, p.14) and go to our website www.ceav.us to learn more. Then make up your own minds. red slider 2010-02-07T04:17:45Z red slider comment-18024 2009-11-20T16:21:46Z 2009-11-20T16:21:46Z We wish the new arena task-force every success and hope that their selection for an arena site, and a plan for getting it done, will prove worthy of Sacramento's best imagination and brightest future. For a complete picture on why Cal-Expo should not be considered in the running as a site for the new sports-arena, visit our website at www.stopcalexpo.org. We also believe Sacramento has an incredible future to look forward to, if we are smart enough to open our eyes and imaginations to what can be done if we really put our minds to it. thank you, Red Slider, steward The CEAV Project California Advocates for the 21st Century red slider 2009-11-20T16:21:46Z red slider comment-18023 2009-11-20T16:20:56Z 2009-11-20T16:20:56Z We wish the new arena task-force every success and hope that their selection for an arena site, and a plan for getting it done, will prove worthy of Sacramento's best imagination and brightest future.
