The Great Blackout of 2003

Posted on August 30, 2003 by John Bailey

WPCNR BOOK CHAT. From First Books Library. August 30, 2003: Force Recon units are part of the U.S. Marine Corps. We conduct raids, do enemy captures, and collect intelligence. We perform other special operations, too. One of these dark ops is covert surveillance of our national security, to expose the mind set in Washington that tolerates acts of domestic terrorism like the “Great Blackout of 2003” that just happened.

Now you can read all about it, in “Behold Leviathan,” this first ever public disclosure of our activities stateside … a document which clearly predicts events like the “power failure” in the NorthEast that left 20 million people without electricity on August 15th, 2003.

Women for John Kerry Breakfast.

Posted on August 30, 2003 by John Bailey

WPCNR WESTCHESTER ROUNDUP. From Women for John Kerry. August 30, 2003: On Friday, September 19 there will be a Women for John Kerry Breakfast at the Grand Hyatt at Grand Central Station. Doors open at 7:30 am with the program scheduled to be completed by 9:00 am. Eight women from Westchester are on the Host Committee: Judith Coyne of Pelham Manor, Betty Cotton of Scarsdale, Helene Godin of Hastings on the Hudson, Michelle Jennings of Pelham, Jennifer Ryan Safsel of Pelham Manor, Catherine Sameuals of Larchmont, Mary Jean Tully of Armonk, and Kate Weingarten of Mamaroneck.

Westchester Women for John Kerry organized 52 women to attend the last Women for John Kerry luncheon and hope to bring more to the breakfast. “Women are concerned about the direction this country is headed in. Federal budget cuts to the states impacts public education, jobs, and even national security. In Westchester, women worry about homeland security not only in nearby New York City, but in and around Indian Point. Women want more than a message sent to Washington and with John Kerry they feel they have a real shot at sending a new President to Washington.” states Jennifer Ryan Safsel the Westchester volunteer contact for John Kerry.

Individual tickets to the event are $150. To attend the upcoming breakfast or any other New York events for John Kerry for President, log onto www.johnkerry.com/events/fund_raising.html or contact Jennifer Ryan Safsel at (914) 738-7108 or Maureen McManus at (212) 213 -0220
