Bush Certified Organic by Bush

Tuesday, May 25th, 2004

Over the course of 10 days in mid-April, the U.S. Department of Agriculture issued three “guidances” and one directive – all legally binding interpretations of law – that threaten to seriously dilute the meaning of the word “organic” and discredit the department’s National Organic Program.

…the changes – which would allow the use of antibiotics on organic dairy cows, synthetic pesticides on organic farms, and more – were made with zero input from the public or the National Organic Standards Board.

Movie Invasion

Tuesday, May 25th, 2004
Looking up Avenue B from Houston Street, yesterday. Note the big white location trucks on the right.
It was some elaborate indoor location shoot, maybe for a movie. It seems like a lot of equipment for TV. Who knows, I’ve seen Law & Order shoots with as many trucks. They come in, take over neighborhoods, and make themselves at home.
I’m guessing that whatever permits they must obtain to take over a street like this, requires a public right-of-way. You can’t hang-out, but if you keep moving, it’s like a studio-tour diorama. You get to see all sorts of equipment, and get glared at by Teamsters. As many of these invasions as I’ve seen, I almost never see celebrities.

Garden Parade

Sunday, May 23rd, 2004

One man parade. This guy was walking up Avenue B yesterday morning, looking either to join up with or escape from the Earth Celebrations garden parade. I felt for him, having subjected myself to such abuse in the past. But it was pretty funny to watch.

…Or was it hug babies and drop bombs? 1st Street near Bowery.
Empty lot on the corner of 1st Street and Bowery. You can usually find large pasted-paper works from this crew on the 1st Street between Bowery and 2nd Ave. I suspect that NYU will eventually get around to filling this space with students, like they have everywhere else.
