John Adams: Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.
Aldous Huxley: Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored.
Thomas Fuller: Get the facts, or the facts will get you. And when you get them, get them right, or they will get you wrong.
Obama Lost the Debate on Health Care: Unable to counter widespread concerns of citizens about his health care plans, Obama supporters conduct intense vitriolic attacks on critics. Obama has no rational arguments, and hopes to discredit his critics by character assassination. They are not just racists now they are greedy racists and hate mongers. Maybe that will work. Ya think? Obama-Biden: Stupid is as stupid does. Biden: "We misread how bad the economy was." Obama: [Correcting Biden]"We had incomplete information." So the US Congress voted for and the President signed a $787 billion stimulus bill without having read it, and with incomplete information? And they say others are stupid? Hello? Then Congress voted for a 1,000+ page "cap and trade" bill that none of them read. Bloomberg: Daschle says, "Health care reform will not be pain free. Seniors should be more accepting of the conditions that come with age instead of treating them," while former Colorado Governor Dick Lamm says seniors have "a duty to die." If this does not sufficiently raise your ire, just remember that the President, Senators and Congressmen have their own special gold plated health care plan which is guaranteed the remainder of their lives and they are not subject to this new law if they pass it. Reverse the dangerous direction of the Obama administration and its allies. Obama, The Un-Truman: David McCullough, in his biography of Harry Truman, "Truman" says on page 217, "Harry cared little more for other [than Huey Long] celebrated 'speechifiers' in the Senate. Admittedly fearful of making a speech himself, he seemed to resent particularly those who could and who made their reputations that way. They were the 'egotistical boys' whose specialty was talk." Obama admitted that he can make a speech but that he was incapable of doing anything in the Senate. Where did he gets his special powers during the campaign? Obama's Mantra: He keeps repeating, "I won the election." He expects all Americans to support what HE wants. "I won," is how Obama implements the post-partisan unification of America. What a guy!

On Thursday June 25, 2009 Marian Ryan, who works for the Middlesex District Attorney in MA, returned my call from the previous day. She heads the unit for abuse of elders and abuse of persons with disabilities. She told me, "We've had four murders this month." That was to explain why she was unable to address 35 years of police abuses of a citizen with a disability now an elder. She said that a police officer making a threat did not rise to the level of a crime. She did not have time or resources to address abuses by the City Manager and the Police Commissioner of Cambridge, and the Harvard University campus police. It was no concern that using police to harass a person with a disability may be the reason for the four murders. MA Civil Rights statute and possession of illegal firearms are felonies, but not murder. Misallocation of resources is easily apparent. If the police focused on criminals instead of harassing elders with disabilities there might be less violent crime. But who was I to argue. Cambridge Censorship: In October 2009 City Council Candidate Kathy Podgers complained to Attorney Bill August, long term president of the Cambridgeport Neighborhood Association, that her posts to the neighborhood discussion lists were not appearing. Then Bob LaTremouille added his similar complaints. When I chimed in that my posts did n0t appear for many months Bill August accused me of libel. I said he ignored my complaints about censorship. For a lawyer he does not read very well. On one occasion in 2007 I sent a letter via Fedex from one part of Cambridge to another. I used Fedex because of frequent tampering with my mail by USPS employees. Mail was withheld by USPS employees, and some mail was intercepted and never got to where I sent it. The letter sent by Fedex never arrived either. Their tracking system ended before it was delivered. I wrote to the President of Fedex. He sent me a check for $25 to compensate me. What good is money if you can't send a letter from one part of a city to another? In June 2009 I sent a letter to a US Government agency complaining about a mobbed up police officer who was protecting criminals who harass me each day. Two days after I sent the letter the police detective appeared at a market as I shopped. He used a young woman as bait to try to have me arrested. In June 2009 someone opened a YouTube account solely to publish a comment attacking me personally. This is a frequent experience of an ongoing character assassination campaign by criminals and their police associates. A Harvard University attorney told me not to make complaints to their real estate offices but to the office of the General Counsel. The lawyer assigned was trying to deceive me. On June 6, 2009 I noticed a threat from a police officer as a comment under one of my videos posted on YouTube July 7, 2008. The video shows a Cambridge police patrol car parked in a bus stop. The officer was having dinner nearby not on an emergency call. Every day since I complained to the Attorney General about the threat Cambridge police or Harvard campus police follow me and try to provoke me. The Attorney General is married to a supervising Cambridge police officer. I learned on June 15, 2009 that the FBI was investigating me again. In May 2009, my comments on the Boston Herald web pages (a public accommodation) were removed allegedly due to violations of guidelines. When I complained one was restored. Interns referred me to a staff writer when three of my comments about the shooting death at a Harvard dorm were removed. Someone unknown to me posted a picture of a man from the city in my YouTube profile. That means that someone is tampering with my YouTube account. That is a felony under US law. On or about December 12, 2008 my name was removed from two neighborhood discussion lists--Riverside and Cambridgeport. My attempts to be put back on were ignored by the former President of the Riverside neighborhood, Larry Adkins. Cambridgeport moderators opened my new access in February 2009. In May 2009 I received messages from the list but was unable to post messages. Last year I was unable to receive or post messages to the Porter Square neighborhood discussion list. No notice there either. They began a new list this year and I now get messages. But I was the target of personal attacks on the Porter Square list, the Cambridgeport discussions and on the Cambridge Chronicle web pages. An FBI informant who maintains a web site about the City of Cambridge ridicules me and others who he believes have disabilities. My account with YouTube (more than 250 videos posted) was shut in August 2008 and my appeals of Fair Use Doctrine were ignored. On April 15, 2009 my YouTube account was re-opened. Emily Rooney, host of the PBS news show, Greater Boston threatened to have me banned from Boston. Cambridge City Councilor and Harvard lawyer, Brian Murphy, who resigned in February 2009 to take a six-figure job with the state used council rules to silence my expression. These are rules that the Council created but ignore at every meeting. An email account I used specially for discussion lists was shut down with no notice and no reason or warning given. My several emails inquiring why have been ignored. That account was re-opened on February 10, 2009. Google Video flagged and blocked four uploaded episodes of a cable access TV show I produced and hosted on CCTV. When I appealed their decision, they agreed to put it back up. But as of this date one remains blocked. In February 2009 a long term producer of documentaries at CCTV told me "There is no such thing as Free Speech." That was the second time someone in Cambridge said that to me.
These four images at about 6:15 AM on Monday August 24, 2009 show trash outside of storage dumpster in rear of 85-95 Prescott Street, Cambridge MA, a Harvard Real Estate Building. See previous related posts at

This is the latest example of Harvard's negligence regarding rodent control in the City of Cambridge. It is a long term problem which City employees and residents spent many hours trying to address. But Harvard is exempt from encouraging rodents on their property. Is this a result of the City Manager's misguided policies to permit Harvard to exist as a separate entity exempt from city and state laws? Restricting City police from enforcing city ordinances and state laws may allow drug dealers and under age drinking to thrive on Harvard property. But it does little to encourage respect for the Constitution and laws of the land. It encourages elitism and a feeling of entitlement to Harvard affiliates to be above the laws of man. These images were taken at about 5:00 PM on Sunday August 16, 2009. After almost three weeks of complaints to the City Rodent Control officers, Harvard residents of 85-95 Prescott Street continue to leave trash available for city wildlife. In July 2009 Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates accessed Harvard's Old Boys Network. He called upon the President of the US (a Harvard Lawyer), the Governor of MA (a Harvard lawyer), the District Attorney of Middlesex, the Attorney General of MA (married to a supervising Cambridge police officer), and the Mayor of Cambridge to have the most famous arrest for disorderly conduct in the history of the world, dismissed before arraignment. It appears that the same Old Boys Network allows Harvard to remain unaccountable to attracting rodents to their property. They already used three special campus cops to intimidate me. Stopping to ask me if I was taking pictures is one thing. But to actively harass me for a week after I explained why I was taking pictures, that is a felony violation of state and US laws. MA Civil Rights statute (MA Gen Laws, Ch. 265, Sec. 37
http://www.mass.gov/legis/laws/mgl/265-37.htm
; and Title 42 US Code Ch. 1983,
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/42/1983.html
Title 42 Ch. 1985
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/42/1985.html
. Knowing that Harvard remains above the laws of man and unaccountable for violations of city, state, and US laws it is unlikely that any of their employees or police officers will be restrained from continuing to abuse their privileges and powers granted by the state government and the MA taxpayers. Harvard's Old Boys Network is alive and well even with the first female President of Harvard running the network.
The Cambridge City Council spent many hours discussing and rewriting the city ordinances to try to control the rodent population of the city. They spent taxpayer funds purchasing new barrels and declared manners and times in which trash may be stored and placed out for collection. All of their efforts remain meaningless, an exercise in futility due to the Old Boys Network which rules the USA. Is this the change that Obama brought to the White House?

Creative residents find another inappropriate place for their trash. Contractors employed by Harvard Real Estate working in 85-95 Prescott Street brought a tool box for their workers. Alas residents perceived it as a small dumpster closer to the door. Even with a sign identifying it NOT as a dumpster, Harvard affiliates were unable to read the sign now that others found the door to the real dumpster. This image was taken at about 12:30 PM on Wednesday August 12, 2009. At 6:00 PM it was unmoved.
Monday July 27, 2009 at about 7:05 AM this truck landed outside of my window and unloaded this huge green dumpster. The truck drove away. While I was wearing ear phones working on audio the driver came back, uploaded the dumpster and took it away. At about 11:15 AM he returned and again unloaded the dumpster. About 30 minutes later he returned and again uploaded it and took it away. He did not return a third time. Here's my question. Was the driver practicing? Was he just doing it to make noise and to annoy me? I was able to take these still photos which do not include the sounds of the uploading which is not very inspiring or danceable. On Tuesday July 28, 2009 at about 7:05 AM the company truck appeared with a dumpster and dropped one again. At about 7:25 AM a truck appeared and took it away. Then at about 1:45 PM another dumpster was dropped. At about 2:05 PM the truck appeared and picked up the dumpster. I called to the Cambridge Department of Public works to inquire what was going on. A DPW employee referred me to the Department of Traffic and Parking, which issues permits for dropping dumpsters. I was unable to get through their voice mail to a real person for the man in charge or his emergency referral person. I left a message for the deputy of the department. I also called to the C. J. Mabardy Company which is in Cambridge. The receptionist asked my name. I did not want to give it for fear of having one of their employees come and beat me up. It is a "removal" as in trash company. I said I would call back which I did. I finally spoke with their point man for directing their dumpster deliveries. He told me that the dumpster was dropped at the location under direction of the construction project manager. He was able to determine that it was from the renovation construction of the high school, one and one half blocks away. I did not say that I knew they needed a permit to drop their dumpsters no less their drawers. I asked how long it was going to continue. He said he did not know, but that it was only for the "initial demolition." That meant that after they knocked down whatever they were knocking down there would be no more dumpster drop-offs under my window. On Wednesday July 29, 2009 there was no drop off at 7 AM as there were on the previous two days. On Friday July 31, 2009 the company dropped off a dumpster at about 7:20 AM and picked it up at about 7:50 AM.
