(Disassociated Press) Trenton, New Jersey The Dood Abides was taken into custody by federal agents at 3:00 am. Sunday morning. The number two man in al Qaeda had been boldly posing as a fake reporter for the nonexistent Rotters and APE news agencies. His arrest makes the second number two man for the terrorist organization arrested in less than a week. A spokesman for the Administration stated that this is the equivalent of capturing three number ones or killing one number six. During the raid, sources close to the investigation say they uncovered about one hundred explosive devices which contained some odd foreign writing. Agent Jim Middly told reporters, "It appears there are between seventy-five and one hundred M-80 purchased explosive devices here. If properly used these PEDs could be deployed to completely devastate a United States Postal Service letter and parcel containment unit. These units are federal property and both the Bureau and Homeland Security consider the destruction of federal property a serious crime."

Yeah, that's right! Happy Birthday Dude!

Thought you'd get away scott free?

Anthony was born on this day in 1981. If you believe in brilliance or charm or goodness or love then he is a combination of these attributes. I am not sure if I should write a 20,000 word essay full of adjectives describing what a gentle spirit this young man has because I fear it would not do him justice. So I will say this:

Happy Birthday Anthony!

You are a tribute to this community!

So Fitzmas came and Fitzmas went. Not only that, Fitz is both a trick and a treat depending upon your perspective!

However, my passionate friends left of center, as I am not a Southern Catholic boy, I do not feel compelled to follow the ancient tradition of twelfth night. Therefore, let it be heard far and wide that I intend to toss my Fitzmas tree out on the curb today.

Or, in the case of some of you Crushies for Fitzie, you can put your walmart specials back in the drawer only your grand jury knows about!

To be sure, I love fun and games. For me, Fitzmas Eve was about the anticipation, the snark, and the entertainment value of a floundering President and his Party. Fitzmas itself was deadly serious and humbling as both an American and a human being. While my diary has opened with playtime, it is about to get immensely serious. Let's get significant!

This diary is short and sweet!

The liberal blogosphere is filled with talented freelance journalists and writers. Why don't we send one or more reporters to cover this story as it develops? It is really quite simple! Isn't epluribus media incorporated for this purpose?

This is an extremely simplified version of the primary phase of creating any project:

*    Create Goals and Objectives
*    Raise Funding
*    Recruit Volunteer(s) Project Manager(s)
*    Recruit Talent
*    Choose Destination(s)
*    Move Forward

At myleftwing the community is sending MSOC to DC to live-blog the protest on the September 24. Why not do the same now on a much larger scale?

NOAA has catalogued an amazing set of interactive satellite photos of the entire region affected by Katrina.

Old Fashioned Linking:

http://ngs.woc.noaa.gov/katrina/090E29M_KATRINA.HTM

Entire Gulf Region

It is really quite simple. Follow the link, then keep clicking on smaller and smaller squares until you find the region you are seeking and then zoom in or out on the photos. I know you are not dumb, but I am frazzled from lack of sleep, and it baffled me at first.

We are still searching my for my fiancé's mother's home, but have not found that square.

I will delete this diary if it has been posted already!

Good luck all!

A blogger named Polimom has been contacting people on the West Bank of New Orleans and logging this info at his/her blog.

In an entry entitled Some administrative stuff a poster fergie makes some observations about the situation on the ground. This poster claims that the Bush Admininstration is attempting to force Mayor Nagin to relinquish his role as administrator of the city before complete disaster relief will begin arriving.

We Just got off the phone with a friend in Algiers Point. He can take calls, but can't dial out.

He has had little contact with the outside world since Katrina and the flooding ravaged New Orleans. He seemed to be unaware of the devastation on the other side of the river, since the West Bank has not experienced such extensive flooding. We were the first people to tell him that there is a massive evacuation of New Orleans and the surrounding parishes. He is not ignorant, dumb, or senile, but this is the current state of affairs in the city.

This is a brainstorming diary.

I am in full agreement with Chris Bowers brilliant diary which calls for the liberal blogosphere to make massive donations to existing charities. I also feel that very shortly it will begin to become apparent that the scale of this disaster is one in which this government and these charities alone are not equipped to address.

The lowest estimate I have heard discussed via the media for a safe return to New Orleans is three months. It is also clear that upwards of one million Americans are suddenly homeless, jobless, and in a state of shock at this time. To my knowledge, this has never happened in America. It is now time we admit that this is the largest catastrophe to ever occur within the United States.

Moments after W's less than inspiring discussion of the devasation facing thousands and thousands of Americans, David Schuster of MSNBS was interviewing a young man from Biloxi about Bush's comments.

His hurt and rage spoke for many Americans!

I searched for video, but could not find it. Perhaps some enterprising Kossack will have more luck than I did.

Much ado about the direction of democratic politics has been debated the last few days on this site. This has primarily stemmed from a couple of intense issues that often pit radical against liberal against centrist against moderately conservative. The fact is really pretty simple the left has won this war! Let me rephrase that. We haven't so much it as much as the moderate/right faction of the Democratic Party has lost it.

The inflammatory nature of the title might suggest that I have a desire to sit back and gloat, but that is not the truth at all. Instead I simply desire to offer and in depth explanation for my thesis. I believe it to be sound.

Please Kossacks, it is our proud tradition!

Cheers and Jeers
by Bill in Portland Maine has been recommended every single day since the policy of recommending diaries began. It is the most recommended diary in the history of DKos. It is one of or few traditions. I suppose like troll rating people who say first on threads on the main page.

Why should we break tradition because we are angry, lonely, tired, and depressed about the attempted theft of our nation. Let's read a little bit of happy news, drink our coffee, get out and FIGHT LIKE WARRIORS FOR OHIO
