Can any of you recommend a good tailor nearby? I have to get a bridesmaid's dress fitted. I know there are several in Davis, but I don't know anything about any of them. Thanks!

Save Our Civil Liberties
Jul. 14th, 2004 03:51 pmhttp://www.saveourcivilliberties.org/petition
The Boston City Council is voting on this issue tonight, so any new signatures to the petition would be welcome, though whether or not the resolution passes the more signatures, the stronger the statement. We're all going to be affected by the "security" measures for the DNC, not least of which the T searches. See the petition site for full details. Essentially, it's a petition in support of a Boston City Council resolution supporting the Consitutional rights of citizens even amidst the DNC security crackdown. Gee, you'd think that wouldn't be so controversial...
From the site:
The resolution is aimed at ensuring that constitutional rights are upheld during the Democratic National Convention in Boston. As a response to the pattern of abuses at large events where national law enforcement agencies have been involved, the resolution calls upon the city to protect several areas of our civil liberties. Specifically, the resolution calls upon the City of Boston to ensure that there are:
* No restrictions on the freedom of movement and the freedom of association
* No unnecessary uses of force and uses of so-called 'less-lethal' weapons
* No uses of surveillance, harassment and intimidation or disruption to meeting places
* No false arrests, pre-emptive arrests or uses of malicious prosecution
* No violations of the rights of arrestees
* No deliberate disinformation given to the Public and Media by police

Savanna gone; now Martsa's on Elm
