On Tuesday, September 11, the Berkeley City Council voted against holding a public hearing before handing over Iceland, the city's beloved ice rink, to the owners of Sports Basement to open the newest location for their sporting goods chain. Jacquelyn McCormick and dozens of other supporters of Iceland spoke against turning over the historical landmark to become a big box retail outlet, but their efforts to sway the council were unsuccessful. The Council voted eight to zero to move forward and to deny the public a hearing. Council member Darryl Moore abstained from the vote after calling on his council members to hold a public hearing. Council member Linda Maio was absent.

The Mayor has called on the people of Oakland, and those participating in Occupy Oakland, to engage in a dialogue with her and the police chief about the occupation. In order to help facilitate that discussion, which can not be handled by empowering a representative to speak on behalf of Occupy Oakland, I have posted this video to You Tube and ask that anyone who would like to respond to the mayor record a statement of their own and post it as a video response to this one.

For the fifth week in a row, activists gathered in downtown San Francisco to protest BART over police shootings and the agency's ongoing strategy to stifle dissent. Although protests against BART began shortly after Charles Hill was gunned down by a BART police officer, the momentum quickly died down. But when BART boasted to the news media that they had silenced a protest by shutting down cell service in the tunnel, it ignited a new call for protest under the banner Anonymous.
