We are friends of Linda McClure/Patriot Daily News Clearinghouse (PDNC) who are determined to create a lake of resources, hope, healing, and love for her in this fight of her life against a cancer diagnosis that has given her only weeks or months. We are raising funds to enable her to pursue whatever treatment protocols may be open to her to save her life, and to give her support, resources, and peace of mind over the months to come. This group is purely logistical: for the staging and scheduli...

Phenology is a science that anyone can practice without a lab coat, microscope, or PhD. It's the study of seasonal events such as first flowers, appearance of certain butterflies, etc. People have tracked these dates for decades -- even centuries -- and now there's a place on DK to record your own observations. A casual spot to tell what you're seeing in the park down the road or in your own back yard.

Black Kos community group. This group publishes diaries that cover a broad range of topics including black history, the arts, politics, and the culture of peoples of African descent worldwide.

Let us learn from Cesar Chavez. Information in these diaries will go to which commercial enterprises make the largest contributions to pro-corporatist operations in America. Contributions to candidates are one example. Tax-exempt "gifts" to rightie "charity" fronts are another. When this gets rolling a weekly update Mothership diary will summarize what is happening. Class Warfare has been a fact for thirty-some-odd years in America -- so there is no reason to support the worst of our economic e...

To advocate effectively for repeal or passage of firearms legislation we must first know and understand current law and policy, and how both are implemented, where we live. There is enormous variability across the country; the relative utility/relative risk of firearms is different on a 500 acre ranch in Montana than for a 1000 square foot apartment in New York. State and local laws reflect that diversity. We will discuss firearms law and policy with an emphasis on the many historical ethics an...

The weather is brutal. If it's not murderously hot, it's freezing cold, or flooding. There are tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, blizzards. Power goes out, and suddenly you're cut off. Beyond that, some of us have disabilities or illnesses that we're dealing with alone. It would be nice to know someone has our back. The Itzl Alert Network is a community where we can meet potential buddies in our geographic areas to check in on us if we aren't reporting in here, to make sure we're OK, and if s...
