Trend Micro thinks they can patent the idea of scanning for virus' at the gateway. As a result they are suing Barracuda Networks (a provider of network security) and Clam AV (a free open source anti-virus). Protect free open source software and oppose unethical business practices by companies like Trend Micro.
Monsanto has bullied and bribed farmers, politicians, scientists, journalists and regulators all in the quest to increase corporate profits by patenting genetic strands of life, getting approval for experimental foods that have not been adequately tested, using the legal system to overwhelm and rob people of their rights, privatizing resources and using very slick media campaigns to represent themselves as the answer to ending world hunger. Monsanto is so pervasive it is almost impossible to boycott them without growing your own food but that doesn't mean we can't expose them for what they are, pressure politicians to bring them under control and let the Monsanto know that we do not approve of their actions as a corporation.
The U.S. government has broken every treaty made with the Lakota Nation. They suffer from higher rates of alcoholism, poverty, illiteracy, infant mortality and a shorter lifespan than the average U.S. citizen. This relationship has not been beneficial to the Lakota people. On January 1, 2008 the Republic of Lakota issued a statement to all foriegn governments (USA) and all private landowners within the Lakota territory of withdrawal from all treaties with the USA. This is an attempt of the Lakota people to help themselves and assert their legal rights. To learn more and find out how you can help go to the Republic of Lakota website.

Ten DANK things you can do to help legalize marijuana (in no particular order).
1. Write a letter to a policy maker. This can be local, state or federal level-if we all take the time to do this it makes a huge difference. Take a few minutes to an hour to draft a letter-then once a week take five minutes-send it to a different official, when there is a bill related to marijuana you will have a good base. DANK recommends using a government website or visiting http://www.makepotlegal555.org to find address information for legislators.
2. Encourage others to write their legislators-each time you write to one, pass the name and address around to your like minded friends-get them writing in, too.
3. Volunteer for a Pro-Cannabis event! Look on online, maybe there is one in your area-there are several on the DANKinfo website and at least once volunteer for Seattle Hempfest-you will be impacted in unimaginable ways. For more info: http://hempfest.org/drupal/Volunteers
4. Attend a Pro-Cannabis event! Bring your friends and family members-especially those that would like to be better educated on the drug war and related issues. See the DANKinfo website for a list and once again, I must say (maybe I am biased) at least once in your life attend Seattle Hempfest-the third week of August. See http://www.hempfest.org/drupal for more info. Another good choice is the Global Marijuana March (www.globalmarijuanamarch.org). Check the website for it-there is likely a march planned near you—if not see #9
5. Support organizations such as LEAP, Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (http://www.leap.cc/cms/index.php), where the proponents of changing the law are those whom have enforced it and seen the failures first hand. Methods of support include donating, volunteering, passing out fliers, attending events, passing on info, re-posting MySpace bulletins, etc.
6. Donate money to those organizations who are influencing policy change-great examples are NORML (www.norml.org),
