Kevin Gosztola’s Northeast tour continues apace. He was at Zuccotti Park on Friday, Occupy New Haven and Occupy Hartford yesterday, and he’s on his way to Occupy Providence today. There have been a few schedule changes, listed below:
OccupyProvidence: The FDL Membership OccupySupply meetup was scheduled for 2pm today, but due to a bus scheduling snafu (the Hartford to Providence bus doesn’t run on Sunday) Kevin won’t be at Occupy Providence until 3pm today. Totally my fault, and apologies to anyone who may be inconvenienced. Thankfully FDL member and Providence OccupySupply Liaison MaryLou B, who lives in Rhode Island, will be at Burnside Park, 1 Kennedy Plaza, at 2pm. Due to holiday post office issues the OccupySupply items didn’t get to her by the guaranteed time, so she’ll have to return later this week anyway to deliver items to the occupiers anyway. But if you’re there and you can’t locate her, call the FDL Membership office at 202 506-3907 and we’ll try to connect you.
OccupyBoston: We’re also moving up Kevin’s trip to Boston by a day, because it seems like a lot of things are happening there, particularly with regard to winterization. So the FDL meetup with Kevin, John Chandley and others has changed from 5pm on Tuesday the 15th to 5pm on Monday the 14th at Dewey Square Park, 700 Atlantic Ave.
OccupyBurlington: It looks like the police have shut down Occupy Burlington and will no longer allow a tent city. We’ll try sort out what’s happening there and post updates to Kevin’s schedule in the right hand sidebar depending on what we learn.

My calendar says Monday is the 14th. Could someone clarify the Boston date?
I was going to comment on the same thing.
In addition, my understanding was that Kevin was coming to Boston on a Wednesday 5pm originally, (not on a Tuesday).
I was just at Occupy Boston at 11am this morning (Sunday). There I spoke with “Alex” from the Winterization crew who states that they are hoping to purchase army tents to stand up against the cold. The GA at Occupy Boston has already purchased a 10 foot x 16 foot (or similar size) cold weather army tent to be assembled soon– in place of the temporary shelter currently in use for the food tent. This will be a proof of concept. If it works well, then Occupy Boston has the money to purchase an additional 3 or 4 smaller army tents. At $1000/tent, Occupy Boston are holding off until they see how well the army tent works with the food—but I assume they would accept donated army tents without question.
I informed Alex about FDL’s plan to bring winter weather gear, and he was excited to hear this. Sounds like 150-200 people sleep overnight and between 200-300 people are present at OccupyBoston during the day.
They need lots of ski masks and hats (estimates 60+) or any other cold weather gear we can provide.
Alex was definitely looking forward to meeting John and Kevin on Wednesday evening (I didn’t know until just now that the times had changed—and I’m not able to drive back to Boston now), but I don’t know if he’ll be there on the new date.
He said to park on Atlantic Avenue near the tall brick building. The winterization tent is just to the left of the OccupyBoston library tent (which is the first army tent OccupyBoston received).
I spoke to “John” in Logistics at OccupyBoston. He won’t be there Wednesday (I don’t know about Monday or Tuesday), and he states OccupyBoston always need blankets, but they especially need subzero rated sleeping bags.
Currently OccupyBoston has only 10 subzero sleeping bags despite numerous donated sleeping bags none of which are too useful unless rated for the subzero temperature. (Perhaps army tents would help offset that?)
Another item he mentioned that would be extremely helpful is blue foam padding to insulate sleeping bags (subzero rated and others) from the cold ground. I assume it is high density foam padding. 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.
Again, Occupy Boston sleeps about 150-200 people a night.
John states that OWS has a fully stocked warehouse and has invited OccupyBoston to come take things they need. John has a van but is waiting for GA or someone to approve gas money. Any chance we could organize a caravan? Not sure whether OWS has surplus subzero sleeping bags!
Occupy Boston can also use warm gloves, drivers to obtain supplies outside the city limits for objects too heavy/bulky to come by subway.
Restrictions on OccupyBoston tents/structures: must be capable of being dissassembled in under 1 hour.
No curfews (currently).
No glass glassware/dinnerware (hazardous shards if breaks)
No propane allowed (fire hazard)
No open flames allowed (fire hazard)
No space heaters (fire hazard)
No hay bales (fire hazard)
No pallets (rats will congregate underneath them)
The Rose Kennedy Greenway Conservancy (on which OccupyBoston is situated in part) is communicating well with OccupyBoston. OccupyBoston members think the Greenway Conservancy does not have a beef with OccupyBoston pitching tents. In addition, OccupyBoston has publicly committed money to restoring the grass of the park after all the tents come down. http://www.rosekennedygreenway.org/
Occupy Boston does have some electricity for computers and the media tent (next to the OccupyBoston library tent), but space heaters are not allowed.
However, some think maybe an electric water kettle with automatic shutoff might be okay, and this could provide warm beverages (tea, instant coffee, oatmeal, instant soup, etc).
Breville (57 fluid ounces capacity) makes a high quality “stainless steel” kettle (glass is NOT allowed at OccupyBoston)
$80 at Williams Sonoma, maybe available at Bed Bath and Beyond as well.
http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/breville-electric-tea-kettle/?pkey=celectrics-breville
OccupyBoston could also use two or three fire extinguishers (might need to check about cold weather limits)
Online last night I ordered 30 Yaktrax to help prevent slips and falls on black ice during the coming winter.
They are relatively cheap and can stretch on to almost any shoe/sneaker or boot.
http://www.amazon.com/Yaktrax-Walker-Traction-Cleats-Medium/dp/B001CZEYH2/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1321214941&sr=8-3
I think more New England occupy cities should consider getting a supply ready.
From a longterm perspective, OccupyBoston is hoping to do community outreach and to expand the term “occupier” to people beyond those who stay at camp overnight.
The website is We Can Occupy:
http://www.wecanoccupy.com/
OccupyBoston wants to do community-based GA’s in homeowner’s livingrooms—house parties to introduce the concepts of GA, consensus building, voting, etc just like it is done in the Occupy cities now. An individual homeowner, civic group, etc. for a neighborhood or town will invite neighbors for the introductory GA, and then they’ll bring more friends, and so on. Goal is to expand the concept of Occupy in every town and city.

OT: I tried unsuccessfully for the last 50 minutes to join the 4pm EST webinar that is taking place right now.
I kept getting Safari not responding error message despite rebooting, clearing cache, and pressing every button I could think of.
Maybe someone can make available the recording of the session.
Sorry to miss it in real time.
BTW, I checked the OccupyBoston website just now.
They’re planning a two hour winterizing meeting for Monday 5:30-7:30pm in South Station. They will meet at the Gandhi statue (which is located inside the Occupy Boston camp at Dewey Park) and walk over to Boston South Station, which is across the street.
(I checked the “details” link to googlemaps, but ignore that–it seems to contain errors)
See the right hand column “Occupy Boston Events” in the The Occupy Boston Globe, the electronic newspaper for OccupyBoston.

And from The Occupy Boston Globe, a Logistics/Winterization Update–list of urgent needs (I cannot find a date when this was posted), a PO Box to send supplies, and a plan to adopt-a-camper:
Thank you, pdaly, for all this information.
This is maybe a little off topic but i just came across a plan for a DIY gas mask that costs $5 which i have no way to test but it looks like it might work…here is the link

Your tallying skills are impressive. Have you found out yet if any occupiers have stolen $trillions from the US citizens? or stolen, with fraudulent notarized documents submitted to US courts, thousands of Americans’ home? or .. you name it. Hooray for the 0.01%
You’re welcome. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make it to Boston until 8pm.
If you guys are still shopping or doing drops offs at that time, let me know.
I’ll email the FDL Boston group my cell phone.
Thanks for all the coverage you have done of the many occupy cities.
Got links? And have any Occupiers taken any TARP money?
(goes to check stilltheone’s comment history)
Ah, I see — you never back up a single thing you say; you just play the old Republican game of “throw out a ton of irrelevant bullshit and try to bog the lefties down with it”.
Typical. And goodbye.
Thanks, P!

Nope. Just rampant drug use, rapes, murders and various STDs.
Andrew Breitbart should hire you. Or, maybe you could blog for The Blaze.
Ha, you actually got your information from Breitbart’s site.
You do know that these drug uses, rapes, murders and various STDs would likely have happened but occurred in some area of the city where nobody pays attention? These aren’t necessarily happening because occupations are happening in parks all over the country.
At Occupy Providence, the existence of the occupation has actually reduced crack dealing and the number of calls firefighters or police have to respond to from Kennedy Plaza.
I like this one from the Albany Times-Union:
DA: Protestors won’t face charges
Seems the Albany County DA understands the protests a bit better than Gov. Cuomo – just like the Albany PD (the arrests were made by NY State Police)
