Most of us are familiar with Fred Phelps and his Westboro Baptist "Church" from their hate-filled protests of funerals and other occasions around the US. Often times counter-protesters will show up and try and drown out their disgusting rhetoric and hide their signs.

Via TPM, today I read about 13 Democratic Senators who are on the fence when it comes to passing a public option. I've been doing all I can in my own state of MN to make sure that Senator Franken and Senator Klobuchar work to pass a public option (both are in favor), but I think it would mean a lot more to these senators if they heard from their own constituents about passing a public option. Please everyone, if your senator is on this list, take the time to call/write him/her today!

As a resident of Minnesota who is contemplating the one year anniversary today of the 35W bridge tragedy, I wanted to diary the state of things as my own version of remembrance.

Today our state is honoring the victims by holding several memorial events, halting construction on the nearly completed, round-the-clock work that is happening on our new 35W bridge, and tolling all the bells in the state at 6:05pm, the time of the collapse.

So tonight, I came home and checked CNN as I usually do before I call it a night. I generally just scan the headlines to see what's going on. I saw the main story called "McCain camp pounces on Obama troop visit cancellation". It seemed rather baited, so of course I had to read it. What a mistake....

Hi there, MN Kossacks! It's time again for another MN Kossack meetup, hosted by Rosebuddear in NE Minneapolis. There are quite a number of MN Kossacks around here, and we would like to get the chance to meet each other. We hope that this will be a regular thing, with meetups every few months at someone's home.

I posted a diary on the last meetup, and you can see some photos here.

Nihao, Kossacks! I'm here for a few weeks visiting China, and seeing as how fascinating I find world travel, I thought perhaps a few of you would be interested in seeing a glimpse of how other people live, as well as taking a break from all the candidate diaries here as of late. Most of the people in this part of China don't live in their single family suburban homes with desk jobs, cars in the garages, etc.

The photos I am sharing here are from Yangshuo, China. This is about a one hour flight north of Hong Kong (which is in south central China) followed by a 2 hour car ride into the middle of nowhere. This is an area with a smallish main town, surrounded by small fishing villages and lots of land spread out between them.

Yangshuo is in the middle of numerous Karst peaks, the type of mountains you see in the photos. You may recognize these mountains from Chinese and other Far Eastern paintings, as they are very unique and beautiful, and are a main draw for people around the world to visit here.

Score 1 for consumers!

After a fierce letter-writing campaign and vocal opposition, the Governor of Pennsylvania, Ed Rendell, stepped in and blocked the enforcement of the new rule to ban rBGH-Free labels which would have started January 1 2008. At this point, the matter is simply listed as being "delayed" for further review, but I am hopeful that due to the massive public outcry, this rule will be thrown into the trash where it belongs.

Hi there, MN Kossacks! Our first MN Kossack Meetup went off without a hitch -- a great time was had by all! It was held as a potluck yesterday at Parryander's house in South Minneapolis. We hope to hold a meetup at one member's house every few months or so, and hopefully we can meet a lot more of the MN Kossacks that are out there. If there are any of you that have not given me your email address to keep on my mailing list, please either post your email address in the comments below, or email it to me at jetskreemr [at] gmail [dot] com.
