interview with Darwin Dante, author of the book "the five hour week". dante explains that it would be sufficient if everybody worked five hours a week. this amount of time would be enough for securing the very standard of living for everybody (globally) that was valid in the FRG during the 1980s. In principal, the calculation is based on the assumptions that 1.) work that has to do with monetary transactions is dropped, that 2.) long-lasting goods are produced and 3.) more people participate in the production of goods.

Through militant strikes over the last four years, the mostly migrant workforce in the logistics sector in Italy have managed to substantially improve their working conditions. Treated with violent arrogance and regularly defrauded out of a part of their salary in the past, they've now won 'normal' working conditions in most workplaces.
Because of these achievements, more and more workers are ... more |

Greek hospital under workers' control
|
| |
"The occupation of our hospital in Kilkis by its workers started on Monday, February 20th, 8:30 local time.
This occupation is not only about us, the physicians and the workers at the Kilkis Hospital. Neither is it only about the Greek National Health System, which is collapsing, indeed. We are in this fight because what is in real danger now is the human rights and our lives."

This morning Pieter, Xeni and I (pictured above) set out with Miles, along with father/son superteam Joe and Bryan Moross. The plan was to drop off a few Geiger counters with volunteers and try to cover some new ground, perhaps near the exclusion zone. But it ended up being so much more.

War and Natural Gas: The Israeli Invasion and Gaza's Offshore Gas Fields
|
| |
The military invasion of the Gaza Strip by Israeli Forces bears a direct relation to the control and ownership of strategic offshore gas reserves. [...]
The BG Group drilled two wells in 2000: Gaza Marine-1 and Gaza Marine-2. Reserves are estimated by British Gas to be of the order of 1.4 trillion cubic feet, valued at approximately 4 billion dollars. These are the figures made public by British Gas. The size of Palestine's gas reserves could be much larger. (Michel Chossudovsky - globalresearch.ca)
