Occupy Atlanta video: 'US cops, shame on you!'






Several Occupy Atlanta protesters have been arrested after a rally in a city park spilled into the streets. Several hundred protesters had gathered at city's Woodruff Park and set up tents with the intention of staying overnight. Despite a police warning that anyone who remained after the park's closing time would be arrested, protesters stayed at the park longer then the mayor of Atlanta, Kasim Reed, allowed. He initially issued an executive order allowing them to stay overnight, but later revoked it. While most protesters left the park, a few people stayed behind. On October 25 more than 50 people were arrested for staying in the park after closing. Protesters began camping out in Woodruff Park on October 7 in support of OWS/99 per cent movement.

With gratitude to "eddieedgar" www.youtube.com for his invaluable help All our meetings are paired with ensuing goodbyes. Quiet and sad is the rill by a lone amber pine, Diffident powder's enshrouding the coals of the fire - Everything's over, the time for departure is nigh. Heart's desire mine, Sunlight of the forest, Whereabouts next time Will I run across you? Tents folded up their wings - their flight is complete. Seeker of partings, the plane has already spread wings. Slowly the gangplank is backing away, off the ship. Looks like a fissure is gaping between us, indeed. Heart's desire mine, Sunlight of the forest, Whereabouts next time Will I run across you? Don't solace me - spare your words and stop wasting your time. If I located that rill by a lone amber pine, If all a sudden a fire should light through the mist, Fancy, if, close to the fire, be waiting for me Heart's desire mine, Sunlight of the forest, Whereabouts next time Will I run across you?

Occupy Berkeley: 'Cops hit us with batons in stomachs'






Seven University of California students were arrested and dozens of others suffered bruises and abrasions following a police crackdown on an attempted encampment at a local plaza on Wednesday. "We had the tents set up for about a half an hour when the police decided they wanted to shut down the camp," student protester Eric Uribe recalled in an interview with RT. "What the students did is they set up a human wall around the tents. Soon after that, the police approached with full force in riot gear, with batons. We had no intention to move, but they jabbed some of us repeatedly in the stomach, pulling people onto the floor and arresting them." Hundreds of protesters had gathered at the town's Sproul Plaza to protest against tuition fee increases and public education funding cuts.

Suvreen, Annie and Naro fail to make a tent but Yuvraj, Mannu and Rathi make the tents easily. The girls go out in the jungle but they get scared in the middle and return. Suvreen is delighted to eat the delicious food prepared and fed by Yuvraj. Tultuli feels jealous of Suvreen. While Yuvraj underestimates Suvreen, she drinks alcohol with her friends. Yuvraj slaps Rathi when he forces him to drink.
