Boy, when it rains it pours: the landlord just grabbed m hard by the writs, then pushed me backwards, and then tried to close me into a shut-off area with himself behind the only nearly-unstickable and one of the only really robust door in the building, threatening me with the kind of contract he would be able to afford to take out on my life if I didn't....? do something unclear about etting out of here thisweek On Sun, Jun 8, 2014 at 6:04 PM, Peter Kwangjun Suk < peter.kwangjun.suk(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Long time ago.

Fwd: [omnilogistics] Omni Insurance: Please Read!

by Jenny Ryan

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 We are looking for a competent individual who can help the Omni Collective obtain insurance before our move-in on July 1! Can you help? - -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [omnilogistics] Omni Insurance: Please Read! Date: Fri, 6 Jun 2014 12:44:13 -0700 From: niki <niki.shelley(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: omnilogistics(a)lists.riseup.net To: omnilogistics <omnilogistics(a)lists.riseup.net> Hello friends, I am hoping to find someone who would be willing to manage the process of liasing with the insurance agencies we are in conversation with regarding insurance for the Omni. This will require a bit of a commitment - possible around an hour a day. *It is incredibly important to note that, without insurance, we will not be able to take possession of the building.* We must sort out our insurance BEFORE we move in on July 1st. I am of the opinion that, while the insurance agencies will likely need to speak with someone from each collective at some point, one person should be the main point of contact and see the whole process through to completion. The insurance agencies move a bit slowly when left to their own devices so who ever takes this on should be willing to apply some pressure to make sure that things keep moving forward. David has already done a ton of the preliminary work. Here's what needs to happen first: * Each member group: Please provide a name / phone number / email address for whomever will be the point of contact within your organization for the insurance agency. Ideally, we need this information *today*. *PLEASE BE AWARE:* * Every corporation **WILL** need their own insurance * Every unincorporated association **MAY** need their own insurance. Please contact me if you have questions. If I do not hear from delegates today, I (or rather, the kind and generous soul who volunteers to spearhead this) will be calling you!!!

help with dragon naturally speaking

by Hanna

Hi Sudo folks I'm having trouble with dragon crashing/working super slow a lot. I definitely need to get it going smooth in the next couple weeks because I'll need it for an online class. Does anyone have knowledge with this program? I think I may have the wrong headset or version for my operating system, or there may be something else going on. Thanks in advance for your time!!

The Gig: Chattanooga's municipally-run Internet

by Vicky Knox

http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2014/5/29/chattanooga-net-neutrality.… "The Gig, which serves over 60,000 customers, was built because EPB [(the local power company)] decided to upgrade its power grid. The company’s main mission was to wire their customers’ homes with fiber optic cables that could communicate meter readings and manage power at a lower cost than the outdated systems used elsewhere. The fiber optic network also allowed EPB to reroute power during storms, helping the company prevent or quickly fix outages without the help of large crews. "The fast Internet, along with TV and phone service, essentially piggybacked on EPB’s new electrical grid."

Fwd: [June 21st] Mapping Educational Ecosystems on Oakland/Local Wiki

by Vicky Knox

You pedagogical and open knowledge radicals might be interested in meeting these folks and participating. :] ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Vicky Knox <vknoxsironi(a)gmail.com> Date: 2014-06-05 20:31 GMT-07:00 Subject: [June 21st] Mapping Educational Ecosystems on Oakland/Local Wiki To: "oaklandwiki(a)googlegroups.com" <oaklandwiki(a)googlegroups.com>, " oaklandwiki-announcements(a)googlegroups.com" < oaklandwiki-announcements(a)googlegroups.com> Hey everyone! A couple of weeks ago I met with a really neat educator named Darshan Campos. She and some of her collaborators are putting on a mapping party of the educational ecosystem of the East Bay, and will be using Oakland Wiki and Local Wiki for this purpose! Below is her invite. I will be there over the Internets. ;] WHEN: *June 21st, 10a-5:30p* WHERE: *South Berkeley Public Library // The Internet* RSVP: *link below* ~~~ I'd love for you to join us for MEEP: Mapping Educational Ecosystems Project <http://www.meepwiki.org/>'s first community learning lab. MEEP aims to help solve one of today’s biggest challenges - how to build learning institutions that work for people at all stages of life, from birth until natural death. Our core values <http://www.meepwiki.org/#%21values/c12fe> are rooted in community informatics and the knowledge sharing revolution, which is at the heart of Oakland Wiki. At our lab <http://www.meepwiki.org/#%21lab/c8f4>, we'll map our community's educational ecosystem, its many centers for learning and teaching. We'll also practice cooperative learning techniques such as spatial mapping, visual thinking, and affinity mapping. Our community learning lab is on 21 June 2014 from *10:00 - 5:30 pm* at the *South Berkeley Public Library*. As a participant, you'll enrich our community's lens for education and spread the word and worldview of community informatics. You'd also find allies and form natural partnerships with individuals and organizations that promote community learning. Plus, you'll eat tasty treats! If you can join us, please RSVP <http://www.eventbrite.com/e/community-learning-lab-for-meep-mapping-educati…>. If have any questions or feedback, please email me.

Meeting 6/4: Important discussion about Omni lease + favorite phase changes!

by Jenny Ryan

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey sudo! Tonight we went over the Omni lease that was sent out late last night. At tonight's meeting, a consensus proposal was passed to empower me to represent the spirit of sudo in signing this lease on sudo's behalf before our next meeting (probably Friday or Monday), or in selecting someone else to do it if necessary (I'm out of town starting Saturday). The final version of the lease we have now is the result of no less than a month's worth of daily negotiating between the owner and David Keenan - meetings typically ranging from 3-5 hours a day. David's been working his ass off on our behalf under the guidance of the Omni Collective's lawyer, Jesse Palmer, who has extensive experience with the kind of weird, co-opy property negotiations we're currently undergoing. We are in good hands, and very nearly (99%) there! I recommend that anyone interested in the details of our lease read it over tonight and attend tomorrow's Omni meeting (7pm at 2141 Broadway), during which Jesse, our lawyer, will again be present to answer any questions. Please see last night's email for the link, and email me privately if access is not rapidly granted. See the full meeting notes for details on the lease and questions answered by Jesse at tonight's meeting - or if you are merely interested in what everyone's favorite phase change is: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Meeting_Notes_2014-06-04 Our move-in date upon signing is officially July 1st, though we can begin storing things there this month. \o/ hack the planet!

Fwd: Someone is throwing out a Loom!

by Gabrielle Silverman

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Gabrielle Silverman" <gabbywingnut(a)gmail.com> Date: Jun 4, 2014 7:51 PM Subject: Someone is throwing out a Loom! To: <omnilogistics(a)lists.riseup.net> Is this the kind of awesome junk we want at Omni, or what? Full disclosure several people at the FNB meeting think I'm insane but I say this is completely awesome. I pushed on the peddles, seems responsive. Definitely rusty and dirty, you know uncertain functionality etc but I think a keeper!... i'm trying to arrange a ride for it-maybe you?- or stop me if you think this is completely insane. Its on Shattuck off Woolsey. See picture...
