 Dear Friend,

Normally we'll only use your email to send you updates about actions and
projects that you can get involved in, or that have just succeeded. But
today, we wanted to send you a quick bulletin about two really important
projects <http://www.kickstarter.com/pages/yeslab> that badly need funding:

1. *The Occupy Wall Street
Journal.*<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/610964639/occupy-wall-street-media>The
title speaks for itself. This newspaper will be printed in 50,000
copies
and will spread all over New York City the news of what's happening right
now <https://occupywallst.org/> in the heart of the world's financial
capital. Help the movement
grow!<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/610964639/occupy-wall-street-media>And
if you're anywhere near New York and haven't been to Liberty
Plaza<http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=zuccotti+park&fb=1&gl=us&hq=zuccotti+park&hnear=0x89c24fa5d33f083b:0xc80b8f06e177fe62,New+York,+NY&cid=0,0,5460553027199764388&ei=86aETu3yLMLn0QHUyJTpDw&sa=X&oi=local_result&ct=image&ved=0CAQQ_BI>,
the experience is highly recommended as a treatment for most personal and
societal ills.

2. Beautiful Trouble<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/151304769/beautiful-trouble?ref=live>will
be a collectively-written book and website that makes the best of
creative activism available to all. It's already largely written, but needs
a boost to finish and to develop the website. Read more
here<http://www.kickstarter.com/blog/guest-post-the-yes-men-love-beautiful-trouble>about
what we think of this project, and click
here<http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/151304769/beautiful-trouble?ref=live>to
support it.

Also, as a matter of form, we'll tell you about a funny thing that happened
accidentally yesterday: "Twitter was
abuzz<http://news.google.com/news/more?ds=n&pq=rastani+yes+men&hl=en&cp=15&gs_id=d&xhr=t&q=rastani+yes+men&qe=cmFzdGFuaSB5ZXMgbWVu&qesig=8he1nqYURnUnlD-jN6BMtg&pkc=AFgZ2tmtTSFNcHqVBVFm7Da0XTJ4d6fuwhKox-obAg6evSubQeF7O7TqZqFgr8TNO7u3XF_ASLl0tDXeNnWBh_f3A2iY05zIrA&gs_upl=&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&biw=893&bih=424&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ncl=d1Q-SgoLEwtQHnMzcrafyhUXCNjwM&ei=yqmEToOTBOLI0AG_nMTNDw&sa=X&oi=news_result&ct=more-results&resnum=2&sqi=2&ved=0CDUQqgIwAQ>"
with "evidence" that we'd created a fake evil trader.
Not.<http://news.google.com/news/more?q=rastani+yes+men&hl=en&prmd=imvnsu&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&biw=893&bih=424&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ncl=d_3F3SK7MFQsz_MhYWv1Qu9NccUKM&ei=v6qETvarBYTv0gHV7IUI&sa=X&oi=news_result&ct=more-%20results&resnum=1&ved=0CCoQqgIwAA>He's
not fake, doesn't even look like us, and—at
least by comparison with the real
deal<http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/04/24/AR2010042401049.html>—is
hardly evil at all. Here's what we
wrote<http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2011/sep/29/alessio-rastani-no-prank>about
the whole surreal episode.

And finally, if you're in New York, stop by tonight
<http://yeslab.org/cat>to hear two members of Otpor describe how they
brought down Milosevic, and
to offer suggestions on bringing down <https://occupywallst.org/> other
forms of tyranny.

More soon, we hope!
Your friends at The Yes Lab <http://www.yeslab.org/>
