TOMORROW!

Press conference in downtown Buffalo this Thursday at 11 am! Citizens’ Environmental Coalition and the Toxic Waste/Lupus, along with a coalition of groups across New York State, will release a new report. “Environmental Racism in New York State”
When: Thursday, March 11, 2004 - 11:00 a.m.

Where: Outside the Donovan State Office Building
125 Main Street
Buffalo, NY

Why: The Department of Environmental Conservation’s Environmental Justice policy, while citing improvements in citizen participation in environmental justice communities, fails to correct current siting policy, which could continue the past practice of disproportionately
siting polluting facilities in communities of the poor. This practice causes certain segments of society to bear an unfair toxic burden.

Scheduled speakers include: Amy Liberatore, Citizens’ Environmental Coaltion; Judith Anderson, Toxic Waste / Lupus Coalition, and a representative from Erie County Legislator George (Butch) Holt’s office.
Supporters from Assemblymember Crystal Peoples’ office will also attend. CEC will provide signs for those who wish to hold one.

DIRECTIONS: Donovan Building, take Main Street all the way down to the “T” intersection (you can’t go any farther). Make a right turn and come down Washington. Donovan Building’s Washington entrance is just across from the Buffalo News building.

The web cam sucessfully tested under a variety of conenctions from my sidekick to mac at UB to my laptop on wireless, to emily's mac on elmwood. Hopefully more of you got to see it. It should be a pretty permanent feature here although dependent on supercomp being alive.

Here are some example pics.

Both the radio and the new webcam are up today. Please test them out and tell us how they worked for you. Both can be found as links under any userPic.

We are sorry for any inconveniences the secuirty updates caused last night. The site was down only for a couple hours, but it was necessary. We will give more notice in the future.

Sorry,
Porn is not allowed in your elmwoodstrip userPics or journal entries. Our ISP charges an additional $40/month for having a porn site and that was never the intention of this project. If you would like to start a porn/sex based journal - please check out yahoo's sex blog directory
