Madera CA, Pilot Truck Stop Scammed Out Of 1,200 Dollars
Oh goody, another local story! I just love when something happens in my town. Sure it's not as interesting as the Fruit and Veggie fest, but it's still better then nothing. Oh, and it's still personal, I will tell you why after the lowdown on the showdown.
Four men entered Pilot on Tuesday masked as costumers asking to break large bills (high rollah!). Continuing the effort the men had managed to eventually confuse the Cashiers into supplying them with more money then the men had started with.
The total sum of scammed cash was around 1,200 bucks. Management at the Truck Stop refused to go on camera but had mentioned a change in how they handle transactions. From now on a supervisor will be required when cashiers are handling large bills.
This is apparently a very short story, and I have no information on who the scammers are and if they have been captured. Presume them to be on the loose.
These four men are my boys! No I do not know them but I wish I did. Not only did they outsmart money out of a business. But they did it to one who had sent me an email a few days ago saying that they do not want me, in response to my third application to them. My first granted me an interview which I had turned down for my current employer who has given me one day and an hour worth of work since mid-2012.
With that being said, fuck you Pilot. You should have hired me, Karma is a bitch!
p.s. I will still take a position.
I have no relevant photos, so here is me with fish.

Skinhead Vigilante Murders Sex Offender
Self-described Skinheads are often times difficult to understand. Sometimes they are racist, sometimes they are as far from bigoted as a person can get. Sometimes they make pancakes with syrup, sometimes they don't. And as with Jeremy Moody (no pun intended, he just has an ironic last name), sometimes they hunt down and take out sex offenders.
Moody and his wife were charged with murder in a community 80 miles north of Columbia South Carolina. His wife, Christine, had told deputies that while the first kill was random, her hubby-stuff had planned to take out others on the state's registry list.
Moody And His Wife
Moody had slain 59-year-old Charles Parker. Surveillance video shows the outlaw couple walking into Parker's place of residence with what are thought to be weapons (a fairly understandable assumption, considering the murder and all). Parker and his wife had been found shot up and stabbed to death. His wife is thought to be a victim of association, rather then an actual target. Evidently the Parker's Sign outside stating "Smile You're On Camera" was not a very effective means of security.
While I don't believe an act of murder against a sex offender is right. I do believe the amount of sympathy for the dead offender is another show of our Rape-Culture. And frankly, we need some more people like this. But perhaps with a little less homicide, you know, put the passion into something more productive. Because even if your heart is in the right place, you're useless to us all as a number in a cell.
The "Skinhead" tattoo on Moody's neck lead to a slight investigation, but there is no evidence suggesting that he is a white-nationalist or part of any other bigot groups. The same can not be said for the Sex Offender who probably raped someone (it's not uncommon) nor the police who arrested the wannabe Vicky and Vance.

Adsense Reminder
As much as I hate the capitalist system, I'm poor as fuck. So I have recently installed adsense. If you don't know what it is, I basically get paid every time you click on an add. Not much though. It is something like 53 cents per click. As much as that sucks, it is my only source of income. At all, so think of it as a donation without having to actually donate your own money.
If you want to help NFW grow, and help me not starve, that little act does a lot. The ads are ugly, so at the very least give them a reason for being there instead of simply brainwashing or some shit like that.
Even something like a .com to help NFW grow costs money in this shithole. And so does replacing the moldy food in my food-closet with something that wont kill me to consume.
You don't have to do this obviously and I don't blame you if you don't. But this is basically my only job right now and I'm my own boss and I'm too damned broke to pay me.

Roller Coaster Death-Count At Infinity
*I am sorry (not really) to be posting about something a tad more glum then whatever fucking royal baby just got born into an easy, careless, elite life. But I have not decided yet if I give a shit enough about that to morph it into a reason you should give a shit, when in reality you shouldn't. But, depending on how my day is, I might think of something to spit out on the incredibly stupid obsession with the ordeal.
Statistically, there are no statistics. A recent Texas death caused by falling out of a roller coaster, has sprung up some interest in the subject. Only to find that we don't have an actual death-count. Which is pretty interesting, considering that seems to be all people give a shit about: death, terrorists and getting fat.
Smith (some twisted bastard researching how many times people die) said they don't "really" have a good system for catching not only theme-park deaths, but injuries as well for kids under the age of eighteen. The latter is a tad bit more understandable. But outside of media coverage of events like this that warrant interest, there is no number on how many people are dying out there on these overpriced death-traps.

And while 4,400 children are estimated to be hurt on said rides (currently no exact information on the time-frame of the count) there is no mirroring documentation on adults. To make matters worse, a full seventeen states have no agency responsible for inspecting amusement rides. Meaning that in said states, you have no real way of knowing if you're gonna go up, down, and loop-de-loop, or fall from one of the tallest wooden roller coasters into the morning headlines.
Don't worry too hard, there is some good news. You have a 1 in 24 million chance of being seriously injured at a fixed-ride theme-park.

Personally I think all of you dare-devils blowing your money on a Russian-Roulette motorized Chinese-Dragon are fucking insane and that's a risk you're taking. Although I think it's pretty fucked up that they don't pay much care nor attention to the whole MIA-Death-List of something people should be safe with. But, hey, crazy actions can lead to crazy results.

2,300 California Inmates On Strike: Solitary Torture
In this case, it doesn't matter if you agree, this is by far the best article NFW has had yet!
*Brainwashes you into agreeing*, just kidding, NFW does not support brainwashing.
This isn't the first time inmates have gone on strike, likely won't be the last either. But that certainly doesn't take away from how proud it makes me when slaves make a stand. I might be biased, I had fasted when I was in jail. But I was only away for five days and that doesn't really qualify, does it?
The hunger strike had started on July 8th, with 30,000 California prisoners across the state refusing to eat due to what they claim is an inhumane solitary confinement process. Today, July 18th, a total of 2,300 inmates are still refusing to eat.
The amount we lost, is saddening, but that doesn't change the importance of the act. The California prison system is obviously collecting far too many bodies. Under a court order, they must release 10,000 inmates due to over crowding. Lets face the facts here, guys, we aren't talking 10,000 dangerous people, they aren't going to rape your daughters and rob your banks (though the latter is fine by me). If the course wants to get rid of them because there are too many heads, then why the fuck are they there in the first place? *My conservative readers, assuming I have any, should attempt to give me an answer for that.
State prison officials unsurprisingly justify the cells by reciting small truths such as visitation rights, chess boards, and 27 channels on a TV. I will not list the flaws to these justifications:
1.) Visitation Rights: Okay, so what? You get to see what you can't have. You get to be forced (I say you for a reason, imagine this life as yours, you don't have to do anything serious to go to prison so this is not out of the realm of possibilities) to see the ones you love, knowing you can not hold them, love them, touch them, kiss them, sleep with them or much of anything with them. However, when you are surrounded by guards, cement and bars, it's the little sanity you will have, so you will take it. Some prisons allow sexual advances, as they are legally obligated to, but most do not uphold this law.
2.) Chess Boards: This doesn't need a lot of explanation, just because something is associated with upper class, does not make it a life saver. Having a Chess Board will not make you happy, it will not make everything okay, it will not give you your life back.
3.) Television: TV is a distraction, which is known to be harmful to the human species. It does more harm then good, and hardly makes up for being behind bars. After all, it's just another form of "See, no touch, no live".
While breaking prison rules will give any inmate a limited amount of time in solitary, if one is deemed a gang member, they may be thrown in solitary indefinitely. In all reality, being classified as a gang member, in general, is fairly arbitrary and assumptive. Imagine how it works in high school, now imagine that ten fold in a place where people may have to join up with groups in order to survive. What I am saying is, you could just be trying not to die and risk solitary because of it. I should mention that in jail I had met a man who had chosen to hang out with the white pride groups, but was Greek, and not firmly racist. He had pretended to be a part of their click, in order to survive.
Force feeding is legal, it is being practiced in Guantanamo Bay. Federal judges have denied requests to end force feeding. It is illegal to commit suicide in the united states. So if they decide the inmate is attempting suicide, they can force food into them.
The prisoners are also asking for increased privileges and improved food (though I fasted, one small taste of the food they had, by my cellmates worry and request, had made me thankful I was fasting). There is currently no sign of the demands being satisfied.
It will shortly be 11 days of the hunger strike. We owe ourselves some appreciation for what is happening. These people do not have the right to have rights, they are animals in cages, they have lost the outside world and plenty of them may never have a chance at having it again. And yet, despite all of this, they give their passion to fighting for what they feel in their hearts is worth fighting for. All our distractions, all our petty fights, all our domestic abuses over unwashed mother fucking dishes, all of this, is fucking childish.
In solidarity*
Fuckin' Fun Facts: California has previously violated the Prison System's law by overcrowding to the point of cruel and unusual punishment.
An investigation is wanted into allegations of doctors having sterilized 148 women in California prisons in the last decade.
In June a Federal judge had ordered 3,000 inmates to be moved from two California prisons due to not getting proper care and were in danger of contracting a dangerous airborn fungus.

Fresno (CA) County's Largest Pot Bust: Police Get High As Hell
*Note: I have little against ABC as a whole (once caught them reporting on anarchism in, get this, positive light) and virtually nothing against them locally.
Okay, okay, so I don't know for sure how high the cops got, the DEA, Monsanto, or whoever it is that took home the gold, err... I mean green. But what I do know is this: I had recently caught a post by ABC30 Action News stating Fresno has gotten its' largest pot bust of the year. Congrats, assholes, now what am I going to do when I squirt the police with water guns. Just kitten, I don't do that, pussies like getting wet. Lord forgive me I'm getting off topic.
*Back on top-ic!*

*Back on top-ic!*
So, firstly as always, a summery of the event. Sherriff deputahs (dep-u-tahz) had found a 66-acre farm near Belmont and Zediker (makes you want to say "zeeeep zeeeeep biddle biddle zap zap"), and air patrols came to discover "thousands" of pot plants a month (or so) away from harvest, with other crops masking the happy-green.
According to Sherriff Mims, she wants grow it herself! Just kidding again, she had this to say: "When we get people out of state to Fresno County to grow, that's unacceptable."
You know, foot traffic is usually something an economical society attempts at bribing people into, but if there is pot involved suddenly it's a bad thing? What about how that weed money will eventually, at least a bit of it, be reinvested into local shops? 66-acres of income, you can not tell me this will completely miss the area in which it was created. I am not a drug dealer, so I don't know, I could be wrong. But this picture (and text, I put the text down as well incase you would prefer that medium) is a statement I made to ABC30's Corin Hoggard.

"It's really silly to get rid of that much pot, what about stuff that keeps harming people, like crack, meth and police.
66 acres worth of pot, most of the money collected by that is eventually going to go into, local and otherwise, stores yes? It's not like the dealers (lesser and greater) are going to hoard the money. If they had that state of mind they wouldn't have a need for the business anyway and wouldn't be in it.
So, 66 acres worth of happy-grass income and a good portion of this likely would stimulate the local economy. Stores can afford more, they have a greater ability to hire new employees, ultimately leading to a slimmed down home-bum population (people who are homeless and generally unable to find work and unwilling to make something greater with that freedom, but not always, just an observation and bias). I mean the list keeps going for a little bit.
The DEA, in my opinion, needs to get off their binge-drinking high (or should I say stoned?) horse and let these things slide, it's not hurting anyone in this case, right? I mean, who is gonna go out of business? Smoke shops?
Of course I am sure that the FPD's odd mixture of radically conservative and potentially careless nature is just as much an issue with economical strife vs virtually harmless stimulation (economical and otherwise).
In cases like this, in my personal opinion, every person here dying of starvation is a product of the same ideology that keeps cleaning out weed farms." Said I.
It is possible that I am wrong here and there in my statement, I might not have been high enough at the time to properly give my opinion. No thanks to the Fresno 5-0 Drug Swine.
Once again I ask, how do YOU feel about the story? Light it up and let me know.

Zimmerman Is Found Not Guilty
Firstly I am going to summarize who George Zimmerman is, and what he did. His name doesn't exactly sound dangerous, it comes off more like a freckle-faced comic character or an 80's TV show title. But that's not the case. No, Mr. Zimmerman went to the trouble of murdering a seventeen-year-old Trayvon Martin (whos name evidently is not registered by google's spell check, nor is "google's", the former of which will likely change now). Zimmerman is a grown ass man of twenty-nine years. And his grown ass had shot and killed Trayvon. He had claimed Self-Defense, he had also resisted arrest, but then who wouldn't. But if you ask me, in my personal opinion, some blood and bruises isn't enough to kill a kid. The kid wasn't the Hulk, now was he?
Zimmerman MartinVS
Zimmerman was ultimately charged with murder and had gone on trial. It was suggested, although not officially known, that Zimmerman had profiled Trayvon and committed a race crime. Today, 7/13/2013, Zimmerman was, by the judgment of a jury, found not guilty.
A lot of this makes little sense, sometimes kids can be dangerous yes and sometimes they can do stupid shit. But, in my opinion, Zimmerman's police call says there is a lot more to Zimmerman's intent. Listen for yourself:
CLICK TO PLAY
You can hear some very clear remarks that suggest Zimmerman is bigoted, either towards "suspiciouskids" or people of darker skin tone. Both of which are probably true. Even I don't like suspicious kids, having been one and all.
I want to know how you feel. Did the jury fuck up, or is Zimmerman really truly just an everyday dildo who killed a kid out of self defense.

Microsoft Gives In: XBOX ONE EIGHTY
Holy shit, I'm reporting on video game drama! But it's important. Why is it important? Well hold your ponies for a second and let me tell you.
Firstly it is important because this means that a monster-company like Microsoft got bossed by their consumers. And that means that the people had the power of the choice of a monopoly. Secondly it's important because judging by the stories here that get read, my general audience seems to be more into less important things then stuff like Edward Snowden exposing one of the most powerful countries on our earth. And as a writer, I need people reading my shit.

And as a writer, I need people reading my shit.
Here is the down and dirty, Microsoft had the following list of absurd rules for their Xbox One system:
1. 24 hour online check required.
2. Can not play games offline without having checked in online.
3. Can not play used games.
Now they have taken those rules and scratched them, after having refused to do so. For Xbox gamers this is great news. For Sony, this is a kick in the balls. I say this because Sony capitalized on Microsoft's rules. And I highly doubt that didn't play a role in Microsoft changing their minds. Of course, the PS4 is still going to be a great system for a great price.

I'm poor as fuck, but I'm still a gamer. Even though I have sold all my PS3 games for gas and a little food. And personally I don't think Microsoft doesn't deserve to play a role in any art medium. I seriously despise Microsoft. Ever since I was prompted to pay for Microsoft Word. But hey, the consumers gave them shit and the master obeyed. That's pure badass and you know it and if you don't know it you suck. Or you're not a gamer, which is cool, strange and boring, but that's fine. Chill out I'm kidding, you only suck a little.
Although this is a win for gamers in general, Sony still holds the torch for Next Gen gaming. But still, you Xbox players bitched your way into getting what you want. Even if what you want sucks. I'M KIDDING AGAIN. Shit...

Snowden Is Changing The World
For better or worse is up to you to decide. But you'd be hard-pressed to claim otherwise. Chances are you've already heard of Edward Snowden by now (if you haven't don't worry I'll sum it up). And I meant to report on this earlier but things came up and besides the story was hardly a seedling at the time. Now however, things are getting even more juicy.
For those who are unaware of what Snowden's badass is doing, he has managed to expose the US government's surveillance inner-workings. And in doing so he has exposed breaches of privacy on the American people. For a lot of us, it isn't surprising that we've been monitored without warrant nor admittance, but we never had proof. Now not only was this information exposed by an NSA operative, but further information has been exposed as well. And that leads us to our V's new "hideout": China.
Yes it looks like the US has got itself into another political scandal. See, they are also spying on China. Which just screams bad idea, honestly, duh, right? Just duh. Bad move America, bad move. Anyhow, I personally had a feeling China wasn't going to be upset with Snowden's presence, and I was right. China's people are ticked off at America now, and Snowden is probably pretty safe for the time being.

China's people are ticked off at America now, and Snowden is probably pretty safe for the time being.
A reportedly small protest (900 people, is small in china I suppose) chanting slogans such as "Shame, U.S. Government" and what not kick-started Saturday urging Snowden to be allowed to stay in Hong Kong. This might not be enough to keep him safe in of itself, but if it grows it probably could. Right now it's too soon to tell. But I will tell you this, this man has shown sheeple that they need to open their eyes and grow some fangs. Of course, some of the sheeple prefer to be sheeple and have commented on the subject with statements such as "This man is a terrorist" and go on to say how we should not be aware of who, how, when and why our government monitors us. Oh nationalism, you silly thing you.
I like what is happening and I think more people need to act as strongly, openly and bravely as Snowden did. I am not saying he is a hero of any sort or even a full example, but he did something most of us are too cowardly to do. He did more then picket and go home.
You're being watched, if that's fine with you so be it, but if you're like me and would rather not be watched by a master, then maybe we need to think pretty damned hard about how we are living our lives and what we stand for.
And how do you feel?

Turkey Police: Violent Uproar
*There is a lot to report on today. Out in Fresno a body was found, twins graduated while battling cancer, the 5-0 are going on about illegal immigration and making complete asses out of themselves, and more. But as much as I want to show up KMPH right now and report on these subjects in a way that showcases why I should have their job, I think we should be more focused on what is going on in Turkey.
The violence was unsurprisingly semi-instigated by an upset people and then initiated by a relentless police squad. I think that's an important first note to make. Because what is going on here is something that happens often, but is always media-spun into pro-authoritarian nonsense and usually misuses the words terrorists and anarchy once or twice.
Originally (according to some indirect sources) the demonstrators' focus was on the environment, which is a good first step. However the focused supposedly shifted into an opposition against Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and general authoritarianism. Well... I can't say too much about the last part of that statement. It's really hard to pinpoint a masses collective initiative. But usually when a group of people rise up like this, their general aim is anti-authoritarian to some extent.

Oddly enough, this is one of the first instances I have seen mainstream media at least somewhat correctly convey, in (and only in) terms of where the violence started. Of course, you won't here the US report the same on like-wise happenings here. But that's because they aren't getting paid by Turkey or Libya.
The context of the violence is fairly familiar. It starts with tear gas, the people take advantage of what false fog they have and throw back some fire and trash, then the hoses and riot squads kick in and eventually someone gets hurt. I don't know if anyone has gotten hurt yet, but I'm willing to bet if it hasn't happened it will.

Sorry the Video is From CNN
From what I've gathered, Turkey's protests have been slightly bi-polar, going from meh to woa and repeating. But the Turkish government is starting to feel the threat, and we can only bet the police force will get a lot more forceful in coming days. We have seen this before, and the story is usually the same: The Machine wins. But every so often something happens like Libya. I hope that for Turkey's sake, if this escalates they do not make the mistake that revolutionaries continue to make when in the shocking event of success: Replacement of a similar government.
The police is still hosing down and smoking out the people in Turkey around the time of this writing (6/11/2013 11:04 PM -8). I'm sending you good vibes, comrades, in the words of Captain Planet (what?) "The power is yours!"

Alien Photographed In Central Valley CA
According to KMPH Fox 26 (yes, those bastards), a lady had submitted them information and a photograph regarding a supposed alien being caught on camera. The lady had taken a photo of a truck she claims she bought for her husband. Upon analyzing the photograph, she spotted what looks like our earth's favorite outer-earth species: They Grey.
The photograph in question.
The lady (evidently, a name wasn't given) also claims to have attempted to contact NASA and that they had suggested the photo was not edited. KMPH said they had contacted the lady and NASA. While they have not received any information from NASA, they said that the lady stands by her claim.
The photo itself looks like classic intermediate to SyFy level CGI. And frankly, I don't think think this is real. Especially considering how the creature seems to be both 2D and 3D. Most of the body looks like a reflection, while a small portion looks to be off of the car. It was suggested that the creature was floating. I do not buy that.
I could be wrong though. I've seen my share of strange things in the sky within the last month in Clovis, California. No joke either, seriously weird shit. At one point a jet seemed to be chasing a fairly wobbly non blinking light that was faster then said jet. That really happened.

Rape Culture: Some People Are Still Unaware
It seems like every time someone does an article on a rape case, it's in some shocking light. And by shocking I mean the reader is stunned that rape happens and the author (or at least the company supplying said author's paycheck) victimizes the rapist and invalidates the rape-victims trauma.
So when I read the headline "Some commanders can't differentiate 'slap on the ass and a rape'" I was both not surprised and irritated. It seems Senator Kirsten Gillibrand feels the same as myself, at least somewhat. As she had this to say to military leaders "Not every single commander necessarily wants women on the force, not every commander believes what a sexual assault is, not every single commander can distinguish between a slap on the ass and a rape because they merge all of these crimes together."
Nine times out of ten I won't even think of supporting any particle of the senate. And I still don't, but Kirsten is right. Rape doesn't just happen to party-goers and it doesn't just happen in rarity. The latter being the most problematic.
Gillibrand is suggesting legislation that would require sexual assault charges to be handles outside the victim's chain of command, adding "You have lost the trust of the men and women who rely on you, that you will actually bring justice in these cases.They are afraid to report. They Thin their careers will be over."
*Of course we at NFW know that the fear of power represented here is a general problem we face as individuals every single day and the only thing that keeps us a submissive society.
The bill would stiffen penalties and eliminate opportunities for leaders to nullify or change a conviction of sexual assault. But would not remove commanders' authority over making decisions. Which is why I do not support groups of people like the senate. Even when they have a positive heart in chest, the brain running it is counter-productive or too reliant on legal-bias.
This is one of the more recent cases regarding sex scandals, rape and general sexual abuse, but it is not the first in a long time nor will it be the last. Even in the military, even if the bill passes, it will not change. Why do I say this? Well:
1.) These are people who work in the field of death. Be it on their side or their opposers, death is their job.
2.) It is already illegal and in my (and most people's minds) morally fucked up to the highest degree to take sexual (non-consensual) power from an individual and force ones own power onto them.

Simply put: you can not scare people who exist within and around fear on a daily basis. Let alone people who use fear themselves as a tool to obtain a specific goal.

Is Modern Tooth Care Counter-Productive?
Before I even get into research I'm going to say damned right it is. From personal experience, my teeth were always fine when I was younger, but I never, ever brushed. They sure as hell were not the whitest things you've ever seen, but they were strong.
Once I started drinking as a rowdy teenager (also part of the problem I'm sure) I started brushing a lot, and a lot, and a lot. And what happened? My teeth started dissolving! So I had to get them fixed. What I found out was the braces I had as a tot, wore of the shields of my teeth. Or so I was told. So doctor so-and-so fixes my teeth. And I leave them alone for a good long time. But eventually I wanted to brush them again.
Once I started brushing again, get this, they started falling apart again and even worse this time. The new dentist said the one mentioned above did the restructuring strange and made my teeth worse. Well, shit. So okay, again I get them fixed. Totally fine while I'm not taking care of them... I think you can guess what happened next.
*I'm not saying it's bad to brush, but I am saying don't trust spamming your teeth with gunky chemical-paste.
So here I am, today, just having a chip and BAM! My front tooth snaps in half. It doesn't even hurt, but it sure as hell doesn't look sexy.

Does It?
I'm not going to blame all my oral problems on the health-care system. But they certainly credit for a decent amount of the problem. The other part of course is diet. The crap food we stuff our face with is just as bad as the crap dental-care we deconstruct our jaws with. But that's another story.
Personal opinion, and logic, aside I did want to get into studies and all of that. Usually what I would do is rewrite them in my own words. But this article I found is just so wonderful that I don't feel so bad for plugging someone elses work while sacrificing a larger article of my own.
So here are seven "myths" about dental care: http://www.modernalternativemama.com/blog/2012/10/06/the-7-myths-of-modern-dentistry/#.UabRfdKR_X4
I would also like to note that I have been using alternative methods of tooth-care recently such as oil-pulling and the results on my teeth are double that of more profitable chemical at-home treatments such as those tooth whitening sticks which I used up until oil-pulling.
Remember guys, our teeth have been with us since our first days. They aren't designed to be treated with lab-made shit. And if I would have listened to my own advice years ago, I'd probably still have all my damned teeth.

Recent Pennsylvania Bigfoot-Found Report Represents Human Blindness
Aloonta (I laughed at the name too) 5-0 got a 911 call last week from some awesome person claiming he had proof of the illusive primate. And he had contacted Game Commission in hopes of them calling back.
Partial snips of the police recording went on to suggest there was something big going on, with an excess of smoke in the area. Although the story has been quickly put to rest by other media sources and police, there are reports of helicopters being spotted in the area. Which would not be surprising if there was smoke and no Bigfoot, or Bigfoot and no smoke.
A BIG Foot - Kinda
I understand this is a touchy subject, and the story itself is hardly news at all due to its lack of real information. But it is not uncommon for an animal to be deemed impossible, only to be found alive in the future. This represents a problem with our everyday state of mind. And a problem that is underlying bigger issues with oppression and apathy.
We continue to come to the conclusion that our species has conquered the universe. This just isn't true. We haven't even fully explored our own oceans and forests yet. So why do we assume we know everything when in reality we only know a small amount of our surroundings?
What The Sky Looks Like
Bigfoot might be as real as the star-painted sky. But you probably won't see it until you turn off the lights and look at the real world. Rather then the pseudo-world we built with boxes and LCDs.

5/25/13 Monsanto Protests: In The Shadows
And a hell of a shadow it is. In NFW style I'm going to compare this to sexual organs. Basically, the protest(s) is a giant penis. I mean it's a huge penis. You should know a huge penis right? The problem is, Monsanto is like a vagina designed specifically to give birth to the accumulated fat-mass of the entire United States, every other hour. In less awesome (and likely more accurate) terms, there is a lot going on, but not a lot of awareness (coverage).
It should be obvious that NFW is in opposition to everything Monsanto is and stands for, but I'm just reminding you. I don't like them. I think they suck. They are rude, little jerks. And the fact they exist hurts my feelers.
In all seriousness, fuck them. They have the potential to destroy our ability to self-preserve, survive and become liberated. Food is the first, next to water, basic needs. When put in the hands of a power, it becomes a weapon against the people. It controls us, and keeps us obedient and complacent.
In case you don't know who Monsanto is, and why they suck go here: http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/the-world-according-to-monsanto/
I would love to say I am out there participating with everyone, but really I am at home in the almost-wild-land with my lover-face half-watching 21 Jump Street and typing this. In fact, the Anarchist Memes page on Facebook is the only reason I remembered the protests at all. Needless to say, I don't have any current information on what is going on myself. What I will do for you is throw a couple articles on the subject together here in case you happen upon this page and are having a hard time finding anything on it.
Unannounced Cannons Disrupt Protest
http://blog.mysanantonio.com/texas-politics/2013/05/cannons-abruptly-end-monsanto-protest/
General Information
I Really Like The Below (I don't know why, don't hold me to that.)
The above sources should help your search a bit. I don't have as much collected and inside information as they do. I do however really dislike Monsanto's soul, and in an act of solidarity with the Monsanto-Opposition I thought I should report at least a little on the subject. Just so you out there know you're loved and needed. You sexy mother fuckers you!

Food-Forest Sprouting in Seattle: Eco-Anarchism?
Seattle sprouts a first, and gets me growing! Let me tell you what has my Jimmy in a Johns. Seven acres of land in Seattle Washington will be planted with hundreds of yum-yum-tummy-tickles. I shouldn't have to explain why that is bad ass, but I will anyway, because it is my job.
First and foremost this is for the people. Ever get hungry wage slaving and can't afford anything other then pure crap-nuggets because your absurdly over-expensive apartment in ghetto-land is sucking your pockets dry? Well if you aren't in Seattle, you should probably keep dumpster diving and can saving (like myself). However, if you are in Seattle (or want to be) then you'll be in luck. The food is for you!

HELL YEA?
HELL YEA!
HELL YEA!
This is one of the best things I have ever heard of. In a day and age (not that it's a new thing, I'm sure) where we purely don't give a damned about the health of our peers because of corporations like Monster-anto and McDeath there is an ever desperate need for solidarity and compassion towards our comrade's health and happiness. And building space for plant-food for people who are hungry is a good start, considering we are basically killing our species and planet trying to keep our regular diet up (which is also killing us...).
The food-forest will be in the spirit of permaculture. This means the plants will be relative to plants that grow in the wild, being perennial and self-sustaining. You know what this sounds like to me? Eco-Anarchism. And to that I say "About damned time!"
*For those of you unfamiliar with the social/political anarchist philosophy read more about how it is relative here: http://www.infoshop.org/AnAnarchistFAQ
Beacon Hill may be one of the first public spaces in the United States of its kind. And more importantly, it (and her food-forest) shows that we are ready for more then little bits of "change" and "progress" and *insert fancy distracting word here*. Yes, it seems that our people might be ready, willing and able to feed ourselves, and our peers and do so out of the kindness of our heart. The one lasting argument against anarchism (and like-wise) is being proven wrong in a beautiful way.
Good job guys, we're finally on the right track. Keep it up!

BREAKING: KMPH Fox 26 is Uninspired/Hides Lack of Inspiration
*I am not attacking the journalists working for KMPH. Despite my being grassroots, I have been close with professional journalists and I understand that they have bosses.
I am however, attacking the hell out of the news system. I might be touching an old subject, but it's one that we need to be reminded of. You see, yesterday KMPH had a breaking news story: Fresno CA, lost their hocky team!
(KMPH has seemingly removed the mentioned post from their facebook page, as more upsetting news came... Selective bastards.)
Really guys, it's a small world but it isn't a chode. You and I both know that there is a load of great material to cover, every single day. And stop being so damned depressing...
Another, irritating, issue we have going on with the mainstream media-jesters is this whole End Of The World self-diagnosis. I get it, bad things happen and fear sells. But I think it is time to get off the scare-wagon and start caring more about your fellow man/women/gender-queer.

Within the last 24 hours a load of different semi-tragic and or inconvenient stories were published by KMPH ranging from the fire on Highway 41 to murder trials. But did you hear anything about Seattle's food-forest? Bet your ass you didn't! That's what you have NFW for, I'll cover that soon.
KMPH isn't alone in this travesty by all means. But they perma-blocked me from commenting on their facebook posts, and frankly I have a vendetta.

Fruit And Veggie Fest? Bet Your Ass!
Besides NFW, I am part of a few other projects. One of which is partnered with my lady-love (seen in the picture below, which I will probably get in trouble for as she doesn't know I'm posting it, or took it, yet) called Possibly Vegan. We cook shit, and do other things but mostly we cook the best food you will ever have. Needless to say, finding out that the very first Fruit and Veggie Fest in Madera CA (the same town we are chilling in, making this the first completely local News From A Wolf story!) was going down, we just had to go. And it was worth it!
The location itself was pretty small, only taking up about what you'd expect a small empty store to look like but outside. It didn't need to be bigger though, and it was only the first. Personally, I loved it, and I'm willing to bet if it continues it will only get larger. The people weren't assholes, that's damned cool. Especially in the Central Valley, that's like finding a golden egg in a silver goose.
We were also granted the opportunity to watch some pretty talented little kids dance around (seen above) like the badasses they are! And trust me, these kids had some serious moves and it was a lot of fun to watch, despite one little girl seemingly wanting to destroy another little girl who got to close to their performing area.
Another thing I really loved, was all the little bits of information found in free to pick up packets and cards and books and fucking awesome.... Before I climax, I should continue on...
These little booths were a lot of fun, and the people running them were wonderful. One man even let me take a picture of his fat! Okay it's not his fat, but it could be someones *cough* McDonald *cough*
As fun as the good people, good music, first time ever event, and lasting raffle (which we lost) was, one of the best things in life is free shit. And there was plenty of that to go around. Two bags full of badassery and even two tomato plants! One for each of us. Which is fucking awesome because the ones I'm growing aren't doing very well and it's making my heart suicide. So thank you Madera Fruit and Veggie Fest, for helping my heart not suicide.

Kai The Hatchet Wielding... Murder Suspect?
Not too long ago, Fresno (the town touching my own) CA gave birth to a rambling celebrity. Nicknamed Kai The Hatchet Wielding Hitchhiker, he bashed a man over the head and saved a life in the process. You can get your filler on that here:
I will be the first to call bullshit on the legitimacy of this "murder" story. Not just because Kai is a local celebrity, but because something doesn't add up. Well, it does add up but not in the way you might think. I find it hard to believe that Kai is a cold blooded killer, but his story does make me think of Emma Goldman.
Chill out! I am aware Kai isn't anything like Goldman. But the feel of the events echos that of what happens when someone lives in a capitalist country, without abiding by capitalist desires. Don't get ahead of yourself here, I am not a conspiracy theorist, however it is not unheard of for people in the U.S. to spend their life in prison for false terrorism, like Eco-Terrorism, for example, or "thought-crime". Yes, thought-crime is a real thing!
So besides being a general kick ass guy with one hell of a back-story that leads to his homeland in Canada (according to another interview of him when he was still in Fresno). Kai (Caleb Lawrence McGillvary) was arrested by Philadelphia 5-0 yesterday for murder. Evidently there was a public call for his arrest (by that I mean, the 5-0 publicly asked for help in finding him). Kai is wanted for the death of an attorney (yea big loss, guys... Kidding, I kid...) Joseph Galfy Jr, who was found beaten to death.
The 5-0 claims Kai "has been known to use the back of a hatchet."
Yea lads, that's totally enough reason for Kai to be a killer. He saved someones life, by use of a hatchet, therefor if someone dies and he is in the area, it must have been him. That's sarcasm, just for clarification.
I am not saying it's impossible that Kai killed someone in cold blood just because I like the guy, but I am saying that the case seems to be a blown-up version of events that happen everyday to travelers. Real travelers I mean, you know, like Nomads. It is also not impossible that Kai is just another rambler who's luck just wouldn't get better.
What are your thoughts?

Everybody Poops, Unless You Want Coffee
The irony here is almost better then the story itself. Oh, who am I shitting (pun) the irony is better then the story. But the story is good too, so read on.
Apparently out in Denver this lady Ruth Burgos was having a poop emergency, well her kid was. Ruth could have just used the toilet like a normal human being-which sounds boring-but regardless, babies aren't normal human beings. Babies are more like little miniature assassins. They do what they want, when they want, as loud as they want and there isn't a damned thing you can do about it, because they're babies. And they know they are babies, sly little critters. Anyhow, Starbucks didn't care much for Ruth's little baby's poop problems. In fact, I think they might be the exception to my statement about the invincible baby assassins.
Although, Ruth didn't really give two shits (every time I say shit here, it is a pun) about the bathroom, which she could have used. Instead she wiped that baby butt clean in the seating area. She told 9news " I just kind of wiped him off, cleaned him off as quickly as I could."
That alone makes her a total badass, right? I mean, fuck it, you gotta poop you gotta poop. That baby didn't care when or where it was going to happen, it was going to happen. Evidently, Starbucks didn't dig the event and called the police for a "disturbance". Frankly, if you're spending tons of money on a sip'n'go of coffee and whatever else the place offers, maybe you deserve to see baby-butt. And besides, how in the hell does a place that sells coffee neglect having a fully prepared bathroom. That's crazier then wiping your babies ass in a dining area of a coffee shop!
Not surprisingly, the staff puffed up with some attitude of their own. According to Ruth's lover-face (her husband) the crew treated her in a demeaning manner saying things such as "make sure you wipe the seat when you're done." and then spilled some coffee on the floor saying "Make sure you clean that."
As rude as that is, calling the 5-0 was a much ruder way to go about it. Honestly Starbucks, you sell coffee and people have babies. It's your own damned fault for thinking inadequate restrooms will be beneficial. On the bright side, no one was arrested. Probably because they where all covered in shit! Okay not really, but that would probably result without arrest as well. If people are terrified of baby poop, imagine what you could get away with if you're covered in it. Don't go testing that, though, and if you do, you didn't hear it from me. You nasty fuck, I love you.

A Tale Of Two Gizmos
Alright, so you got me. This isn't the most important story on the planet. But it's pure bullshit and this is still news. And I don't care what Mr. Commenter on whatever fucking website I first heard this from says... I am not fucking thirty, and Gremlins still holds a special place in my heart.
So this has been talked about, for a good while now. Gremlins was getting a sequel, they are replacing puppetry for CGI and Stephen won't be a part of it. Okay, so who will? Mother fucking Seth Grahame-Smith. I won't lie, I haven't seen any of his movies and I'm aware of their negative reception. I do however have-in my hand-a copy of the book form of Abraham Lincoln VAMPIRE HUNTER. And I like what I've read so far. So I won't give him shit for being called into script writing again. I also won't give Hollywood shit for lacking creativity, that's nothing new.
So where is the problem? Besides getting rid of puppetry, which is enough reason to want to pull a Sylvia Plath, it's not even a sequel anymore. It is a straight up remake! "Holy shit" you say? Holy Shit indeed! If it wasn't bad enough that Gremlins 2: The New Batch was a shitty movie-if you like it, that's cool, I don't know what the fuck is wrong with you, but that's your problem to sort out-they want as far as risking total destruction of one of the best movies ever made. One of the best things in that medium, from an artists perspective, does not does deserve to be murdered because we have new technology... This isn't Robo-Cop mother fuckers...
We will see what happens, who knows, maybe I'm wrong, maybe there is a god.
Oh yea, and I don't give a fuck about a sequel to Beetle-Juice. That's nowhere close to the level of tragic that Gremlins: Remake possesses.

Arrroooooo! Well-cum!
I got my pilot license, and I'm flying right into your... Too soon? For some of you nitwit bastards, that is indeed too soon. And you sheeple probably won't feel welcome here. So I invite you to stick around, because I don't like you. And that means we should be friends.
Anyway, what news is more relevant for a first post then the very manifestation of the best thing to have ever happened to you! Okay well, that threesome with so-and-so's sisters was probably pretty good too. But you get the point.
So why am I here anyway? Basically, I'm doing you a favor. You get to get information you would get anywhere else, but without a dry and overly polite bullshit attitude you just know is being intentionally worked into static boredom to appease the author's boss-man-ass-face.
And besides, if I'm lucky, I might rile you up a bit as well. Stay tuned mother fuckers.
