Adana Five-Three printing press

by Jake

there is a small offset printing press in sudoroom which is never going to be used here, and will probably end up getting thrown out or recycled if it doesn't go somewhere. It's an Adana Five-Three and they can be quite valuable: http://www.briarpress.org/40882 of course ours isn't as polished as this one in the picture, but it's basically the same thing. The wood base is not flawless, but the rollers seem soft and new and the action of the whole thing is smooth. does anyone want to handle getting this thing out of sudoroom? Perhaps you can sell it and donate some of the money back to sudoroom to keep the lights on? thank you, -jake

Sudo Humans website down?

by Patrik D'haeseleer

Is the Sudo Humans account management system no longer working? sudoroom.org/humans right now just forwards to a "Page NOT Found". That means CCL is not able to add any new members, we can't check who is paying their membership fees, existing members are not able to update their payment information, etc... Help! Patrik

new proposal - need input

by robb

sudoroom wont have another meeting before the next delegates meeting plz, read, comment, provide concerns/questions if you will proposal: This is a GCEA draft proposal, which could be amended, based on feedback from the delegates at this meeting. Thank you for taking the time to discuss this proposal. GCEA as an organization is working to establish itself on firm economic grounding. Unfortunately this has meant that GCEA hasn't been able to pay its rent for 5 months of 2018, as well as currently in 2019. GCEA feels that there is strong value for both parties in the relationship between GCEA and the Omni, and hopes that the Omni collectives feel the same way. To this end, we are making this proposal to change the status of GCEA's rent payment. As an Omni collective organization, GCEA members appreciate the other Omni collectives’ willingness to work with us as we solidify our financial situation. 1) GCEA would like to pay its existing back rent to the Omni and is planning to conduct fundraising event to that effect. We propose that GCEA be able to pay the back rent at its normal rate, and propose that the Omni waive the late fees on rent payment. We believe this to be consistent behavior with many Omni collectives. 1a) GCEA organized a fundraising event, Out The Blue, on December 7th, 2018 in partnership with several University alumnae orgs and groups. We expected a portion of the funds ($1,100) to go towards GCEA's rent/youth trip to Africa. This portion would have covered our back rent from 2018 completely. We have been informed, after the fact, that the rules of the Commons Group prevent the funds from this event from going towards GCEA's rent. We believe this is a miscommunication and intend to have a conversation with the Common's Group in hope that our portion of the funds be allocated towards GCEA's rent. We will be appreciative if that happens, but if not GCEA intends to hold another fundraising event in order to pay for its back rent. 2) GCEA would like to propose that the rent be reduced to one dollar, for the ongoing period. We hope to be able to return to a larger rental rate in the future, but are having difficulty meeting this need right now. We understand that there is some precident in Omni history for an organization to have one dollar rent. 2a) We understand that there are organizations that exist at the Omni who make payments largely through paying a percentage of their donations directly to the Omni, rather than a monthly rent. GCEA would like to propose that it continue to support the Omni financially by giving a portion of its income from fundraisings and donations to the Omni. We would like to discuss that level with the Omni. Internally we have discussed numbers around 30-50% of GCEA donations, but are happy to discuss the appropriate level for this with the Omni Delegates. 3) GCEA has limited funds at the moment, but wants to continue contributing to the Omni Commons as much as it is able. To this end GCEA would like to propose that it take on a distinct project for the Omni. We have brainstormed an project: to take responsibility for a renovation of the Disco Room. This would involve organizing and taking responsibility for creating a working group to hold the meetings, organizing fundraising efforts (which should be easier as an Omni project, than direct GCEA fundraising), managing volunteer contractors, seeking input from the Omni Community, and ensuring that all legal regulations are followed. 4) The delegates have previously approved that GCEA and BAPS have priority use for the Small Classroom. Recently, some delegates requested that the lock be removed from the Classroom door. GCEA, in conversation with BAPS, propose to convert the small classroom from fully common space to semi-common. We propose to keep the door locked, in order to establish accountable common access to the room, and to keep it secure and clean. However, we seek to make the room available to any group that makes a reasonable request, except when GCEA or BAPS is already using the space. Please note additionally that we encourage that the Ticketbooth room be made more accessible to fully common use as soon as possible. Thank you delegates for taking the time to consider this proposal. We welcome your thoughts and questions, and hope to be able to return at the next delegates meeting with a m ore formalized and informed proposal.

EDM electrical discharge machining at sudoroom

by Jake

We could make an Electrical Discharge Machining setup at Sudoroom pretty easily. https://www.wired.com/story/gaze-upon-the-black-magic-of-electrical-dischar… at sudoroom, we have an old CSAM (Confocal Scanning Accoustic Microscope) in the corner which is basically an extremely precise 3-axis CNC machine with a granite base (for stability) and a liquid tank below the toolhead where the CSAM used to happen. (attached picture is somewhat similar to what we have) We still have all the old CSAM stuff (including the ultrasonic pickup and amplifier) but the software on the old computer (RUNNING WINDOWS 95) barely works and probably is not worth resurrecting, besides who cares about CSAM? The point being that we could pretty easily put a piece of metal in a clamp attached to the toolhead and move it through a stationary brass wire in a distilled-water bath, and thus be able to do 2-dimensional Electrical Discharge Machining pretty easily. We could cut flat stencils and even make thick stuff. I believe we could also do conventional 3-axis CNC machining with the same idea, if the toolhead held a conductive point and just machined away at the material from above. EDM is slow, but doesn't pollute the air with fumes or even noise, so it would be fine to just leave it going overnight or even during meetings. I don't have any experience or detailed knowledge of EDM but I could certainly get the motors of this CNC machine working and i know how to pour distilled water, and could probably hook up the appropriate high-frequency power supply between the brass electrode and the work, if other people are interested in bottomlining this process. -jake

Work tables for sudo

by Alexander Papazoglou

Hello, The place I work is getting rid of three work tables, which might be good for sudoroom. One is welded together (doesn't come apart) and has a shelf. There are also two tables without a shelf, the legs of which bolt on, so they can be partially dismantled. The tables are all 8ft long and in good shape. One or two of them could replace part of the "island of doom" near the robot arm, or perhaps the workbenches against the wall. Pictures attached. We would need a large vehicle to transport them, and pickup would probably have to be during business hours. I would probably need to know if we want them today (Friday) or Monday, and we'd probably need to grab them some time next week. Alex

Hello Folks, RE: Free Microwave. :) I have been reached out with the offer of a microwave donation. Please see message: "I have a microwave that works fine and looks good, but it buzzes, which is rather annoying in a small space. I was wondering whether to offer it as a donation to Omni. I wouldn't want it to be seen as "dumping" but I hate to throw it out." A couple images here: https://imgur.com/a/znrpDNK Thank you, and please let me know if someone is interested. Daniel

Fwd: [omni-consensus] Fiscal sponsorship for 1st They Came for the Homeless Art Show

by robb

this proposal is coming up for discussion/decision at the next delegate meeting. please, comment here as there was no meeting last week thx4haxn ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Laura Turiano <scylla(a)riseup.net> Date: Sat, Jan 5, 2019 at 4:17 PM Subject: [omni-consensus] Fiscal sponsorship for 1st They Came for the Homeless Art Show To: finance(a)omnicommons.org <finance(a)omnicommons.org>, consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> We had a proposal at the last delegates meeting to fiscally sponsor an art exhibition by 1st They Came for the Homeless (FTCFH) - see below. We were generally in favor but needed more info. I spoke with Marcia, one of the organizers, today and got more details. Please send feedback about the proposal in light of this additional info. The funds will be used specifically to cover unhoused artists' production costs (paints, printing, paper, jewelry making supplies, etc) and any excess will be donated to something to support a camp or other support for houseless folks. They don't need fiscal sponsorship for tax deductability. They need a safe account where the money can be sent that doesn't show up in any individual's bank account. They are happy to give 10% to the Omni because they like us :) How it might work: We provide donation links that FTCFH can publicize. On a weekly basis organizers would present us with a list of artists who were approved for a grant and the amount. We would give one of the organizers the amount in cash to distribute to the artists and have them sign to verify the amount they received. Thanks! Laura Homeless Art Exhibition Fiscal Agent Request Creativity Unhoused First They Came for the Homeless requests that the Omni Commons acts as our fiscal agent for the production of an art show scheduled to take place from March 9 through May 24, 2019 at Berkeley’s Expressions Gallery. Mike Zint, Sarah Menefee, Marcia Poole and John Paulin will be the contact people for First They Came for the Homeless and Rinna Flohr will be the contact person for Expressions Gallery. We are asking the Omni Commons to act in this capacity because we value the high integrity that characterizes your organization and its mission. We propose that 10% of all donations collected for the show be given to the Omni Commons as payment from us for your services. First They Came for the Homeless and the Expressions Gallery are proud to present a show that deals with multiple aspects of homelessness within our communities on March 9, 2019. The main focus of the art will be on the efforts of homeless people to survive within urban environments and, especially, on the benefits created by the communities that develop within and around homeless encampments and shelters, as well as among people sleeping in the rough. The exhibition will explore the differing ways utilized by individuals in these communities to insure safety, solidarity, camaraderie, and other positive aspects of the communal experience. The show will also address the problems faced by the homeless on a daily basis. The participating artists, homeless and housed, will be drawn from members of our community who have either experienced homelessness directly or have been touched by the plight of the homeless. This event will be the first opportunity for some of the participating homeless artists to display and sell their work in a professional gallery and will incorporate art in many different media, including painting, photography, printmaking, digital art, installation art, videos, sculpture, crafts, jewelry, clothing, and ceramics. The participation of homeless artists will be facilitated through their collaboration with First They Came for the Homeless (which will provide access to materials as well as assistance in the presentation and submission of their work) and Expressions Gallery. Funds and materials for the effort will be secured through donations. In 2014 Expressions Gallery presented one of the very first art shows to deal with Homelessness in the San Francisco Bay Area. The work of homeless and housed artists was exhibited without differentiation by housing status. The event was very informative, and many who attended the show stated they were moved to become more active in matters of social justice. The show was covered favorably by a number of local print, television, and radio media. The Creativity Unhoused exhibit will run from March 9th, 2019 – May 24th, 2019 at Expressions Gallery, located at 2035 Ashby Ave., Berkeley, CA. Phone # 510-644-4930. The gallery, one block from the Ashby BART station, is open Wednesdays through Saturdays, Noon - 5 PM and Sundays from Noon - 3 PM. The Opening Reception will be held at Expressions Gallery on Saturday evening, March 9th, from 6-8 PM and will feature local participating artists, musicians, and refreshments. The reception is free to the public.

MISSING BACKPACK from Sudoroom (from tool cabinet),

by Robert Chu

Hello Sudoroom, I put my backpack in a tool locker (back of Sudoroom) while I was helping out with the Spaz event over the weekend. and was tired to remember to grab it before I left. I thought I had it in my van, and just remembered that I left it here. It is a blue backpack, with a Dell M4800 Workstation Laptop, which I need for work, also contains a composition notebook as well, as pens and other things. Sierk has informed me that there has been many people cleaning, which is why I think the reason for the moving. If possible, please contact me at 415-724-0425 or this email. Thank you Robert Albert Young Chu P::415-724-0425 E:: robert.chu01(a)gmail.com

3d printer solder paste dispensing at sudoroom using rpt2paste

by Jake

last night at sudoroom i did some things to get solder paste flowing from the TAZ 3 3d printer. i brought in a compact air compressor and adjusted its power switch to click off around 100 PSI (since it was failing to reach its design pressure in a reasonable amount of time and we only need like 40-50PSI for solder paste) i'm not sure if it's still working because it cut out apparently due to heat the last time i was running it, but possibly just because of duty cycle. It needs a fitting installed into the outlet to plumb it to the solenoid. Fittings are in the box behind the printer and there's teflon tape in the "tape" box on the shelves in sudoroom. i installed a three-port solenoid on the 3d printer which plugs in instead of the extruder resistor / temperature sensor. It contains a 47KΩ resistor to simulate a thermistor (to avoid a fault code) and it wires the nozzle heater wires to the three-port solenoid (which is rated at 24VDC matching the printer's power supply) I piped the 3-port solenoid to a syringe and mounted a syringe holder on the print head assembly in a reasonable place. A syringe of solder paste is in the sudoroom fridge and can be used. Needles of various sizes are in the cardboard box behind the 3d printer. the air compressor's outlet needs to be plumbed to the flexible black hose going to the 3-port solenoid. The solenoid needs to be mounted to the print head (a twist-tie should work). unfortunately the 3D printer's firmware seems to be cycling power to the nozzle resistor when a temperature is selected, probably because of PID parameters, so we will have to look for a set of commands (or modified firmware) to activate the solenoid properly during the dispensing process. This printer doesn't seem to have wires for a print head fan, which is how we connected the solenoid in past implementations of this setup. There will need to be a script or modification to rpt2pnp to issue the right commands for this setup. as a reminder the software for creating g-code to dispense solder paste from the .rpt file output of a KiCAD circuitboard project is here: https://github.com/hzeller/rpt2paste note that it's superseded by https://github.com/hzeller/rpt2pnp which may be newer. the latter was confirmed to (apparently) correctly process the .rpt file from the project we'll likely dispense solder paste onto first: https://github.com/fitzdoingprojects/big_battery i'll be gone for two weeks but if anyone wants to make progress on this project please write back and i'll help as much as i can. -jake

by Yosem Companys

May be of interest to the list. -- YC ***** Today is the "Our People-Centered Digital Future" event, a nonprofit, non-partisan, and tech-for-social-good event sponsored by Constellation Research <https://www.constellationr.com/about> to commemorate both the 70th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights <http://www.unesco.org/new/en/brasilia/about-this-office/prizes-and-celebrat…> (UDHR) and the 50th anniversary of the "Mother of All Demos <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mother_of_All_Demos>." By March 2019, 50% of the world will be connected to the Internet, an inflection point that marks an important moment for examining the “unfinished work” of the Internet and discussing the community norms, human rights, and social contracts required in the digital age. The event is well underway: Internet co-inventor Vint Cerf and Web inventor Sir Tim Berners-Lee have already delivered their introductory remarks. If you missed their talks, don't worry. You can click on the Livestream timeline below to view them. There are many more events to come today and into the late evening.

Stuff in the entrance hall

by Laura Turiano

Hey everyone- All this stuff (see photo) appeared in the entrance hall over night. I don’t know how many times we have to tell people not to leave stuff in the entrance hall until it stops happening. The EB Zine fest is here tomorrow and they need the EH clear. Any information about who left it is appreciated. If you had anything to do with leaving it, come and move it out or into the basement now. Laura Sent from my iPhone

Cheap tablet with LineageOS

by Marc Juul

Every now and again woot.com sells the 5th generation Amazon Fire tablet (from 2015), and a couple of weeks ago it popped up for $16 + taxes/fees. I bought one and it turns out that you can flash an unofficial older version of LineageOS, which is still being maintained for this device, and get a surprisingly good little tablet running 100% FOSS (well except the bootloader depending on which Fire OS version it has). I wrote up a short guide in case anyone else is interested: https://gist.github.com/Juul/3f93655efb8d99b89a29168dd255b5a2 Beware that I haven't verified this procedure on the latest Fire OS versions since the tablet i got didn't have the latest version and I didn't want to tempt fate. From forum reports it doesn't seem like woot is shipping tablets with the latest firmware anyway, but I can't say with any certainty. If you get one, just make sure you keep the WiFi disabled until the guide tells you to turn it on, to prevent it from auto-updating. -- marc/juul

Fwd: [omni-finance] Fwd: Will the Omni sponsor CR's 20th Anniversary (December 9th)?

by robb

any blocks/objections? ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Julio Rios <julio.rios(a)gmail.com> Date: Sun, Nov 25, 2018 at 3:25 PM Subject: [omni-finance] Fwd: Will the Omni sponsor CR's 20th Anniversary (December 9th)? To: <consensus(a)lists.omnicommons.org> Cc: <finance(a)omnicommons.org> Delegates, My apologies for not bringing this to a delegates meeting or by email sooner. *Please respond by December 1 if at all possible. * I asked the finance working group if the Omni could formally sponsor this event as an organization, and while everyone in the group agreed that we could and should, they requested that I make a formal request to the delegates since it would entail donating funds to an external group. Last year, I contributed $200 on behalf of the Omni and shared a handful of tickets for Omni folks to attend the Annual Critical Resistance program. This year, the event is even bigger and it features a conversation moderated by Angela Davis celebrating 20 years of prison industrial complex abolition. This year, Laura has agreed to cover half the amount for the minimum organizational contribution of $500, so I am requesting *for the Omni to contribute $250. * Thank you all so much for your consideration in supporting the ongoing work of this highly respected Oakland-based organization aligned with the values and mission of the Omni Commons. If this is approved, l please contact me privately if you are interested in attending the program on behalf of the Omni on December 9.

Our campaigns, vision and strategies have been shared and used as blue-prints across the US and internationally. We invite you to join us in celebrating the gains we have made together, feeding our minds and our spirits, and preparing for the pitched battle of the next 20 years. Every donation, ticket or sponsorship will amplify the vision of liberated communities and the fierce, joyful will of our people to fight to win. *Poster design by Kate DeCiccio @k8Deciccio <https://www.instagram.com/k8deciccio/> and Jules Retzlaff @Cerealforthekids <https://www.instagram.com/cerealforthekids/>.

Asylum Seekers Caravan: Update 2018-11-25

by danarauz＠gmail.com

Hello All, I cannot go in details here, because it is not the proper place, besides that I still don't know why; but I was kicked out of the group by the person that I went to join, and later on other two members that came to join the group were asked to leave as well. In our last days the three that got kicked out worked together and it was for the best. We bonded and we became friends, brainstorming and decision making was way easier, horizontal. We, the original group of four, found two asylum seekers in Mazatlan. After that two of us, an Italian gay person and myself, supported the asylum seekers all the way to Tijuana. While the two others the group flew from Mazatlan to Tijuana. One of the asylum seekers, man in his 40s, had an accident the day before about 1pm. He tried to aboard a cargo train while in movement. He hit his face against the train, and was ejected back out to he ground, where as he said, "went into sleep really quickly" until in the dark of the night when he was feeling cold. At that time he just dragged himself away from the railroad tracks to avoid potential incoming trains, to just to curl and continue sleeping again until the morning when the sun was too hot. A few hours later we found him. Cuts on his face and hands. In the same railroad area, among train containers, there was a 16 years old and he also was supported. Both of them are now in Tijuana. The kid is in a safe place, with shelter and food, wiht moms and kids, and already got a number enlisting himself for asylum. -I lost contact with the man. But last thing I know is that he has a place where to sleep and eat with the person that kicked me out of the group. I hope he is okay. Both were given new clothes, and shoes while in Mazatlan. The funds came from donations like yours. Thank you for that. We didn't help tons of people, we helped only two. At the beginning when I was in Tlaquepaque, Jalisco I did some short interviews and one of them was with Vivian https://asylumseekerscaravan.org/2018/11/20/2018-11-18-vivian-a-computer-te… which we kept in touch. At the time, we couldn't help them. But at least we have been on WhatsApp. Yesterday latest news, they were in Mexicali for a few days already and has not eaten, he/she said was hungry. And that a bus was living tomorrow to Tijuana, but for only the ones that can afford the ticket. I sent some money, but they was not able to pick it up, the local store asked for Mexican Electoral ID. So, we lost, 1000 pesos. I had sent enough for Vivian and partner, and some change. I have to say that I didn't ask for money to support my flight ticket to Jalisco. And my expenses there, were covered by donations that my new gay friend had received. During the trip up north Mexico, I was in contact with another small group that was made up of three mom, two husbands, four children (including a baby that was born in Puebla, after jumps of the truck sent the mom to the hospital). https://asylumseekerscaravan.org/2018/11/24/2018-11-23-ten-days-old-baby-th… There are not public videos of the two we helped directly, because they wanted it private. They allow me to interview them when we arrived to Tijuana, for me to remember them.But they are okay with some photos in my facebook account, you may see them there. Thank you to all of you that supported with moral encouragement, and some that donated. If you feel that you want to donate, because what I lived and experienced and the work I saw done today I recommend https://www.facebook.com/ActivateLabs/ donation point: https://www.facebook.com/donate/485476331860297/ The donate button at https://asylumseekerscaravan.org already reflects this new donation point. Many thanks to all of you, <3! Daniel

Parts drawers organization at sudoroom

by Jake

the noisebridge info system is called stuff-org and was written by Henner, who is local in San Francisco. It was installed on a server at sudoroom recently a few months ago, but it's not fully configured and nobody knows how to use it. although i also like the idea of hot-gluing one item to the front of each parts drawer, although that doesn't help with transistors because you want to know what they're actually good for. So the parts system below would be best: https://github.com/hzeller/stuff-org https://parts.noisebridge.net/status On Thu, 22 Nov 2018, Jared Null wrote: > it's alright, it was a loss to the collective as a whole, it's too bad they couldn't hold on to it any longer, so no fault or blame or anything, they said the've been trying to get rid of it for a year. i was hoping to help replicate an inventory system like NoiseBridge for small components, but i have no idea how their system works. > > If we have something that has 500 drawers in it, it would be pretty annoying if every draw just had random stuff in it, i have a super awesome label maker mp-71 Brady and 1000s of labels and i can pump out labels like a maniac if we ever need things labeled like this. > > HAPPY TURKEY DAY! > Null > > > >> On Nov 21, 2018, at 11:45 PM, Patrik D'haeseleer <patrikd(a)gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Argh - sorry for having you come all the way out there for nothing!

Asylum Seekers Caravan update: flight change, two busses stopped by la migra and judicial police

by danarauz＠gmail.com

Hello all, A really quick update. For more deets, please check: https://asylumseekerscaravan.org. As Jessie had mentioned in a couple occasions, things there with the caravan can change from minute to minute. Well, the ticket from Mexico City had to changed for Guadalajara, and I am leaving tonight 11:20pm. One of the alerting things yesterday, is that a group of folks that went ahead in two buses, not supported by us have to clarify this, were stopped in Agua Prieta, Hermosillo. Based on a video taken by a local woman, a WhatsApp audio convo from one of the asylum seekers, and a report from Pueblo Sin Fronteras, two busses were stopped about 11pm on the night of the 15th. A child and a woman were hurt but Mexican authorities when they were forcefully were taken out the bus. They asylum seekers were scared because they were not being taken to any oficial facility and were just driven around for hours. The asylum seeker reporting at the time that things were happening said her phone was very low in charge. The Mexican authorities involved in this scary stop and arrest were the Mexican Immigration, and Judicial Police. According to one of the asylum seekers, at the moment of the arrest, middle of the night, some asylum seekers escaped. But, as things were developing, the authorities realized that they were getting themselves in a big trouble because there has been a judicial order (Amparo 16-18) given by judge, Jonathan Bass Herrera from a Court in Mexico City and notified to all authorities in the country, that the busses should not be stopped and the asylum seekers be let pass. Eventually all (about 60) were let go, some went to a refuge, and yesterday at about 5am they continue their journey to Tijuana. Also, as seen in the video, a child was with fever and the authorities were told, but as woman says, the Mexican Immigration didn't care and ignored them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=ED9QgsWs3JE Thank you to all of you for your moral support, and for your donations. To donate: https://rally.org/asylumseekerscaravan Special thanks to Noisebridge <https://noisebridge.net> for directly assisting me during my preparation for this trip.Thanks Silver, thanks Steve, and others there.

2018/11/15 A quick update about the Asylum Seekers Caravan.

by danarauz＠gmail.com

Hello All, this a very quick update. * Donation Status - https://rally.org/asylumseekerscaravan * New Website - https://asylumseekerscaravan.org/ * Caravan and Jessie's whereabouts. * Goal Status * I am going in. *Donation Status*, out current goal is 15K and so far we have close to 6k. Please donate and you haven't done it. The website it is here: https://rally.org/asylumseekerscaravan *New Website*, this past Sunday I went to the Aaron Swartz Day event at the Internet Archive in SF. While there I got to see some familiar faces, and also I met more officially Steve Phillips from Noisebridge. Anyhow, to make the story short, since I have to go sleep, and wake up early for work, Steve kindly volunteered to help our group to migrate our just plain html static website to a WorkPress type, where the public and others group members can also add content. Steve and I did an all nighter right after the Aaron's event, working all night at Noisebridge and going home about 8am. Similar hacker schedule followed the next two night, which ended in our nice website. Many thanks Steve. Muy agradecido. *Jessie* followed the caravan from Mexico City to Queretaro, and then she returned to Mexico City when she learned that more asylum seekers were coming. Jessie, been talking and interviewing and learning more about the situation. T*he Goal*, which we are very laser focus, is as mentioned on my previous email and as the donation site mentions, is to provide transportation to as many we can to women, children, and LGBTQ vulnerable folks. And for what we have collected in donation, we are about to make the first trip from Mexico City to Tijuana. As Jessie reports, the situation there is very fluid, so not only things change moment to moment, but also she has to be very patience and wait for their choices. But, again, the first trip is this Sunday. *This weekend.* And the money that we have is only allowing about 60 people. We could offer more, if more folks would donate. The road I have taken many years ago, and there a very long one, and empty areas and distance town in between. Circling back to Jessie, in a way, because she is by herself, someone else (I am not sure if I can mention his name here) is coming over this Saturday. And, about half hour ago or so I bought a flight ticket to go help them both. Three of us will go with asylum seekers all the way to Tijuana. I am scheduled to arrive to Mexico City on Saturday morning. *I am going in, *and my intention is to team up with the other two in this task, and at the same time try to document the trip photographing. I am not sure how long I am going to be there, but the most that I can push it is until Dec 8. I should be uploading photos at my flickr account, so if you want to help spread the word, feel free to use those photos, they are intended to be here: https://flickr.com/danielarauz/sets, as often as it will possible. Please, if you haven't donate, please do. We really are using every single cent to support those in need.

*Trash and recycling bin reminders*

by Laura Turiano

Hi everyone, I think the trash and recycling has been working pretty well since mid October. Thanks are due to everyone who has dealt with Omni waste in any form! Yesterday I was told that the bins aren't always being put out on the sidewalk, however. So here is a reminder of who has agreed to do what, when. If any of this isn't working for you, please let me know and we can set up something else. *Monday afternoon/night: Food Not Bombs puts out brown and green bins for Tuesday pick up* *Wednesday afternoon/night: SudoRoom puts out blue recycling and cardboard (flattened and bundled with twine) for Thursday pick up.* *Thursday afternoon/night: Phat Beets puts out brown and green bins for Friday pick up* In general, if you see the bins are on the sidewalk and empty, please move them back into the trash room. Hasta la victoria - Laura

water leak in upstairs bathroom

by Jake

I have many times gone into the upstairs (near the shower) bathroom and found the hot water tap freely running. Every time I do, i turn off the supply valve from underneath, because the problem is that the faucet valve is not sealing and is likely continuing to run even when people shut it off. this is basic maintenance that's not happening. The cost of running hot water continuously is primarily energy, because the hot water heater is burning natural gas (or is it electricity?) to heat fresh drinking water that's then being sent down the drain. The solution is to re-valve or replace the hot water faucet in the upstairs bathroom so it shuts off properly. -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 4 Apr 2018 23:26:53 -0700 (PDT) From: Jake <jake(a)spaz.org> To: discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org, building(a)lists.omnicommons.org Subject: water leak in upstairs bathroom i feel like i wrote this email a while ago but i'm not sure. the bathroom in the corner of the upstairs bathroom (next to the kitchen) hot water faucet is leaking, flowing openly continuously, unless it is vigorously forced off. This does not happen. when i go into that bathroom (which is not often) i see that the hot water is just flowing. Because the seal in the valve is worn out. So i turned off the service valve under the sink to turn off the water to the faulty valve. But someone else turns it back on. and then people leave the water on. Omni has probably used thousands of gallons and hundreds of dollars in water alone, not to mention the wasted energy and money of heating all that hot water that's then flowing into the sewers. I am not going to replace the valve, but i'm here to point out the problem and hopefully someone will fix it. If not, i'll block off the pipe since it's something I know how to do, but it would be a waste of effort since it needs to be repaired properly anyway. will someone please confirm they'll take care of this? -jake

by danarauz＠gmail.com

Hello All! If you are interested on reading, watching videos and photos about the Asylum Seekers Caravan, uncensored reports, please visit Jessie's Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/jessie.sandoval. The reports are also being logged here: https://asylumseekerscaravan.org. Who is Jessie Sandoval? Jessie is a sister in struggle from Nicaragua, that I met and worked with during Occupy. She went to Mexico a couple days ago in support of the Asylum Seekers sisters and brothers, and she is already sending reports on her Facebook account. Her writing is blant, poetic, unapologetic, etc. I like her writing. Before I go.. a quote from one her post from last night. " *I am not sleeping on cold hard earth, after traveling north for a month.**And yet, there's been no burning, no breaking by this migrant community*" ~Jessie Sandoval Mexico City - 2018-11-07 Thank you in advance for any support to my/our brown folks.
