Welcome to today's addition of the Occupy Wall Street Mothership Resource Diary.
This diary is not meant to replace other OWS diaries on the Rec List! The community decides what deserves to be recommended and what doesn't - not this Mothership!
Here is what I see happening with future editions.
Intro - will include Special Requests -and/or action items that can help propel more stories in the MSM media.
Below the curlique, we will begin with a resource list of important links to OccupyWallStreet including those for donations and for the LiveStream.
Then we will follow with off-site links to news, blogs, etc, worth sharing. You guys can feed them to me in the comments, if you would.
After that, I will continue to organize our diaries here at DKos into categories. Check out yesterday's Mothership for Saturday and Sunday diaries. They should all be there. If not let me know in the comments.
Special Requests
Hi my name is Rachel. I’m here with comfort. I want to make an announcement about some things that we need. Important things we need are boots for males and females, sleeping bags, sleeping pads, and folding chairs. Also, we have lots of bags of laundry from when it’s been raining. Since there is no Laundromat nearby, we are asking for volunteers who would like to take one bag of laundry to their home to get it clean and bring it back. Please, come see us at Comfort to do that. Thank you. Comfort, if you don’t know already, it’s right next to Medical on this side of the park.
Rachel – Sunday 10/2 General Assembly

Charlie Grapski is looking for a couple of things. First, does anyone have connections with 'anonymous' so that he can share some images and video?
Second, he would also like to contact Marissa Holmes who was arrested last Saturday.
If anyone can help him out with either of these, please send him a private message.

Anjali Mullany is the Social Media Editor at NY Daily News. She was on the bridge yesterday but manages td "get out of the net," as she called it. She is really wanting to dig into this story. I think I'll post this in several other relevant diaries.
