-Darrell - Dan Lungren voted for SOPA Act and NDAA Act bills that President signed, authorizing us to be put in Concentration Camps. Nation of Islam has spoken of a need to be proactive and protected. Fed's actions are aimed at "Urban Security" which we can be accused of threatening.
Finance.
Darrell - We have $700 from one source and $100 from another source, from Scott. Anthony is setting up a We-Pay account again. Finance and Legal teams are busy and its hard to get them to come to a meeting. In New Year we will apply for Non-Profit Status. We're canceling Clear Wires.
Crowd - Put money aside for bus because "this" will be taken on road.
Jen - Let's do Clear Wires again and reinvigorate Media team.

What's that spell?
Occupy.
Concern was voiced about all the above things.
-Laura said let's decorate City Hall on Wed Jan 4th and leave it there for Sat Jan 7th. And with Darrell that we should Petition For a Redress of Grievances and not fight City Hall, and take our Occupy to other Parks and to the People, feed them, and that food is important.
-Sean T expressed regret that many got arrested but cases were dismissed. Occupiers and Legal Team did their best. Fight only on Big Issues.
-Crowd suggested we canvass RT and take our case to the people. Concern on Fed's Urban Security crackdown and Dan Lungren.
-Brother Carter and Laura said Urban Outreach is meeting on Thu Dec 29 and will discuss taking our Food Service to other parks. Protest at Dan Lungren's office in Gold River on Jan 6th. A community group is meeting this weekend to see how they can help us.
-Brian expressed concern.
-Chris said Jan 1st in Oakland Police Brutality Rally on anniversary of Oscar Grant's beating.
Events will change.
-All information and any corrections should be put on FORUM, Website Page, Daily Email, Facebook, and Moveon. FORUM is easiest and other media venues could go there to get correct information. Nathan or Ricky may need to put separate Scheduled Events section on FORUM.
