Fw: Progress Report -- Never want to open an email with this first line.

Hi Tyranny Fighters:

This probably will my last message before being arrested and incarcerated. The current situation is:

1. In my civil case against the Department of Homeland Security, et al. Judge Holwell has issued an ORDER to not write to him again. This make it awkward to continue this case.

2. In the criminal case, I will mail the attached letter tomorrow. As you can see from the attached pdf, a legal team has been formed and has authority to act on my behalf while I am incarcerated.

3. It is important that the rest of you continue extra-legal action on a continuous basis.

4. Recently I have given speeches to the Campaign for Liberty in Orlando, FL on January 8, 2011, and to the Libertarian Party of Manhattan, NY annual convention on January 15, 2011 discussing the fate of the nation.

5. I am slated to give radio interviews on January 23 with Corey Moore of 89.3 KPCC, on January 27 with Lee Parker of Global Freedom Report, and on February 4, 2011 with Rob McNally on WKRP.

6. My book entitled "The Non-Trials" has been sent to the publisher. It should be at booksellers within a week or two. The sales price is $25.95. The book discusses my journey through the NY State and federal courts after my arrest of April 17, 2007 across the street from the UN in New York City.

7. We have raised about $2000.00 in donations for field work organized by James Cox. This is enough money for two weeks. Obviously we will need more to keep the program going. Please make contributions through Pay Pal to TyrannyFighters.com. Any questions should be addressed to bile. James intends to start canvassing northern Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina in the next few weeks.
Also the national Libertarian Party is sending 1,000 door hangers plus 200 bumper stickers for free. I would like to extend James canvassing to Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and eastern Texas in future weeks. However we will need more donations immediately to do so. So far donations have ranged from $3.33 to $250.00. Please give what you can.

City League clarification
There is one change in the City League's plan to possibly join the WPIAL.

Within the next few weeks, a City League athletics overhaul committee will submit a proposal to Pittsburgh Public Schools superintendent Dr. Linda Lane for the league to join the WPIAL for the 2012-13 school year. Under the proposal, the City would have nine schools in the WPIAL.

Current City League schools Allderdice, Brashear, Carrick, Langley, Oliver, Perry and Westinghouse would join the WPIAL along with two other schools.

University Prep and Pittsburgh Science and Technology would combine for sports under a cooperative sponsorship agreement.

The ninth City League school in the WPIAL would be Obama. Schenley is closing after this school year, and its students will be part of Obama, which will move into the Peabody High building for the 2011-12 school year. Peabody also is closing at the end of the school year.
Good to have this reported upon properly.

The ultimate public trial

Hi Tyranny Fighters:

1. OUR TIME HAS ARRIVED!

On January 11, 2011, I (Retured PSU Professor and Liberty Activist, Julian H.) was notified by summons that I have been criminally charged with jury tampering. The moment of truth has arrived. My response to the court is given at the end of this E-mail. The dance begins. Finally we will have the opportunity to inform the jury in the U. S. District Court: Southern District of New York that the judges have routinely lied to it.

This trial could be the defining trial of the decade. We must not blow it. I will represent myself as counsel pro se. However, I am asking all the attorneys and others knowledgable in the law on the Tyranny Fighters mailing list receiving this E-mail to join as co-counsels. Particularly, I hope that the American Jury Institute/Fully Informed Jury Association and the American Civil Liberties Union join me to provide advice, guidance and strategy.

I maintain the role as lead counsel, because I can and will say and do things that could disbar any attorney.

In addition, I request that all of you that write for news outlets, have radio shows, and/or blogs will publicize this trial to the hilt. I intend to provide a blow by blow flow of trial information. Be sure to send your material to major news outlets. The rest of you can write letters-to-the editor of your local newspapers and magazines with trial information as it becomes available.

I want this to be the ultimate public trial.

Meeting with the Black & White Reunion / Summit Against Racism, Jan 22, 2011

School Reform's next challenge: Sports

Pittsburgh Public Schools has been planning changes among the sports opportunities for city students that could include a move away from the "City League" and enter into the WPIAL. Mixing the schools, programs, teams, players and fans from the urban with the suburban counterparts can make interesting competitive and racial realities more visible on a day to day basis, should this occur. Is there the political will and vision to overhaul sports in the city schools?

Mark Rauterkus, a parent and member of the PPS Sports Reform Task Froce, has been a long-time advocate for community sports. This year Coach Mark ran water polo for PPS Summer Dreamers and volunteers as the AM swim coach for Schenley HS Boys. His swimmers set state records in four states (including PIAA and WPIAL records). He has coached NCAA Division I teams for 8 seasons.

Michelle Porter, an engaged parent and PTO leader at PPS schools, is a serious sports fan with two emerging star basketball players, a boy in 9th grade and a girl in 6th. She works at CMU and has keen perceptions after being to thousands of gyms throughout the region.

Invited Scribe: Jake House, PPS Administrator in charge of PPS Sports Reform Committee. Jake moved to Pittsburgh to tackle this issue on a full-time basis.

Dear Superintendent Lane,

This weekend the Post-Gazette ran another article about pending efforts of sports reform in Pittsburgh Public Schools. (http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/11008/1116588-364.stm)

The article included this telling statement:
"The athletics overhaul committee, headed by Jake House, includes coaches, school athletic managers, school board members and school administrators."

Missing from the news coverage includes:
- PARENTS (three of us were on the committee, yet omitted from the article)
- STUDENTS
- ATHLETES on PPS squads
- Taxpayers
- Community leaders
- Sports boosters
- Park and Recreation Professionals (one was included, yet off the article)
- Fans
- Alumni
- Citizens
- WPIAL Athletes, Coaches, Administrators, Fans.
- Officials (one was on the committee).

Without a doubt, sports and after-school programming has plenty of moving parts. Reform makes a hard issue for all involved, including the students. Student voices and the associated engagement discussions with a wide community has been a weakness in the planning quest so far. This can be fixed with your help now.

The Annual Summit Against Racism, a community event on Saturday, January 22, 2011 at East Liberty Presbyterian Church, needs your support. Michelle Porter and I are leading a 90-minute workshop devoted to dissolving the City League and what this means for the PPS and race relations in Western PA. (http://www.BlackAndWhiteReunion.Org)

Can you help to insure that we invite and bring plenty of PPS students athletes and PPS coaches to the event, as well as Jake House, the committee's coordinator? There we can work on an agenda for serious outreach in this topic to further engage students -- both at the schools and in our communities for the months to come. We can have better school opportunities for our kids!

Thanks for the consideration and support in this important aspect of our city and region. I look forward to working with you and other PPS Administrators to make this occur in the very near future.

I gave this letter to Dr. Lane on Monday night at CAPA High School in a 'meet and greet' that happened just prior to the "evening with Dr. Lane." The letter was also given to a few school board members and some of the members of the PPS Administration that night.
