Water Is Where Everything Intersects - Water in the Global Commons
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9087-water-is-where-everything-intersects-wa=
ter-in-the-global-commons
Beverly Bell, Other Worlds: "In case after case around the world, water is =
being turned into a good for sale and for profit. Driven by a different vis=
ion and by economic necessity, a global counter-trend is growing to assure =
that household water be free or cheap, accessible, and safe, and that the e=
arth's water be kept pure and flowing. Marcela Olivera is a part of this mo=
vement."

JPMorgan Sought Loophole on Risky Trading
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9085-jpmorgan-sought-loophole-on-risky-tradi=
ng
Edward Wyatt, The New York Times News Service: "Soon after lawmakers finish=
ed work on the nation's new financial regulatory law, a team of JPMorgan Ch=
ase lobbyists descended on Washington. Their goal was to obtain special bre=
aks that would allow banks to make big bets in their portfolios, including =
some of the types of trading that led to the $2 billion loss now rocking th=
e bank. The rule was designed by Congress to limit the very kind of proprie=
tary trading that JPMorgan was seeking."

Grant to Boost Use of Food Stamps at Farmers Markets
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9086-grant-to-boost-use-of-food-stamps-at-fa=
rmers-markets
Meghann Myers, McClatchy Newspapers: "Farmers markets are a popular source =
of reasonably priced fresh produce, but across the country many accept only=
 cash or checks - a big problem for low-income shoppers using food stamps. =
The U.S. Department of Agriculture is trying to change that. Agriculture De=
puty Secretary Kathleen Merrigan this week announced a $4 million grant for=
 states to help implement wireless technology that will allow more farmers =
markets to accept Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, or fo=
od stamps."

Of Illicit Appearance: The L.A. Riots/Rebellion as a Portent of Things to C=
ome
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9008-of-illicit-appearance-the-la-riots-rebe=
llion-as-a-portent-of-things-to-come
Lewis Gordon, Truthout: "In this article =E2=80=A6 we look critically at th=
e political significance of the Los Angeles riots/rebellions of 1992 and th=
eir aftermaths. Inspired by W.E.B. Du Bois and Frantz Fanon, two revolution=
ary thinkers from the African Diaspora, we also offer these reflections as =
challenges to hegemonic (or dominant) ideas of law and order, reason and ra=
tionality, and offer the rallying cry, shared by continued voices of protes=
t, for new concepts and commitments in the struggle for freedom and a more =
humane world."

20 Years After the L.A. Riots, Revisiting the Rationality of Revolt
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9000-20-years-after-the-la-riots-revisiting-=
the-rationality-of-revolt
Nigel Gibson, Truthout: "I asked a friend who lives in South Central to sen=
d me his thoughts about Los Angeles 20 years after the rebellion =E2=80=A6 =
'The rebellion did change the relationship between the cops and the Black /=
 Brown community. They are not going to create another Rodney King situatio=
n. But the police use of deadly force has not ceased, just their attempt to=
 cover up that relationship has taken on many different forms in an attempt=
 to disrupt or derail any new form of organized rebellion,' [he said]."

Permaculture Visionary: "We Don't Need to Wait for Permission" to Transform=
 Our Societies
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/8694-permaculture-visionary-we-dont-need-=
to-wait-for-permission-to-transform-our-societies
Brianne Goodspeed, Truthout: "Four years ago, a British educator and permac=
ulturist named Rob Hopkins initiated what has since become one of the most =
rapidly evolving and far-reaching social experiments of our time. The Trans=
ition movement - which encourages people in cities and towns across the wor=
ld to devise their own unique, local solutions to peak oil and climate chan=
ge in the absence of meaningful government action - has developed a spirite=
d and devoted following and garnered praise from the likes of Bill McKibben=
 and Richard Heinberg."

Food Stamp Myth-Busting
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9088-food-stamp-myth-busting
Dr. Carol Olander and Robert Weiner, Michigan Chronicle: "For over four dec=
ades, the Food Stamp Program, which Congress renamed the Supplemental Nutri=
tion Assistance Program (SNAP) in 2008, has had bipartisan support as the n=
ation's most important anti-hunger program. Even the far reaching welfare r=
eform legislation of the mid 90's left it intact=E2=80=A6. Those who hope t=
o radically alter SNAP don't understand the program or the effect making si=
gnificant cuts would have on millions of desperate Americans."

Bill to Ban Sustainability and Climate Change Action Fails in Arizona
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9089-bill-to-ban-sustainability-and-climate-=
change-action-fails-in-arizona
Maria Gallucci, InsideClimate News: "A high-profile bill in Arizona to abol=
ish sustainability efforts died last week, yet its defeat isn't deterring l=
awmakers in three other states from still trying to pass related policies i=
nto law. The legislation seeks to outlaw states and their cities from endor=
sing or implementing the United Nations Agenda 21 principles of sustainable=
 development. The list of 27 nonbinding principles, adopted by countries at=
 the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, is meant to guide policies to =
eradicate poverty and combat climate change, among other environmental thre=
ats."

Waiting for Copernicus: Moving Beyond Wall Street-Centric Economics
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/9091-waiting-for-copernicus-moving-beyond=
-wall-street-centric-economics
John Feffer, Foreign Policy in Focus: "Putting Wall Street and financial sp=
eculators at the center of the universe had generated an economic supernova=
, and everyone seemed to get the message. Everyone except Big Money, which =
never received the obituary notice. After some minor tweaking of Wall Stree=
t practices, some bailouts of enterprises deemed too big to fail, and the i=
njection of some stimulus spending to arrest the free fall, Washington cont=
inued with business as usual."

What Kind of Society Do Americans Want?
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9090-what-kind-of-society-do-americans-want
Lawrence Davidson, To the Point Analysis: "This leads us to the question, j=
ust what sort of society do Americans want? Indeed, do they want a meaningf=
ul society at all? The fact is that, in terms of social conscience, the U.S=
. is still quite a primitive place. And this primitiveness is sustained by =
a philosophy of selfishness. Among other things, that prevailing philosophy=
 is making an ever greater number of us unhealthy. Is this acceptable to mo=
st Americans? Is this the kind of society they want? The political practice=
 since 1981 seems to answer, yes."
