1. The lie.
The very much standard game in the ongoing destruction fought for by the Cambridge Machine and its friends is lying through omission combined with non stop holier than thou nonsense..
The falsely named Charles River “Conservancy” put the following pitch in this month’s newsletter:
***********
we ask you to renew your support so that we may continue these programs as well as our advocacy campaign for pedestrian and cycling underpasses at the Anderson Memorial, Western Avenue, and River Street bridges.
2. The reality.
This falsely named group has previously identified the bond support it is supporting for those “underpasses” as approximately $2 to $4 million for the “underpasses," and about $24 million for “associated” paths. Now, given the 12 to 1 radio, you would think they would be talking about the part which has 12 fold the money of the portion they are bragging about.
But the “associated” paths destroy hundreds of trees between the Longfellow and BU Bridges, the three bridges east of the bridges they are bragging about, along with further general destruction, and heartless animal abuse.
The fake conservancy never mentions reality. The Governor’s bond request puts the lie to the “underpass” nonsense, and the responsible agency, MassDOT, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, rejects the much less large “underpass” proposal because it is so environmentally destructive. The part MassDOT rejects is one twelfth the size of the stuff being kept secret, one twelfth the size of the portion which is not part of MassDOT’s domain.
This destruction which is lied about by omission appears in Governor Patrick’s bond request, House Bill H 3332, as “Historical Parkways.” Even there, the realities of massive destruction is, again, kept secret by omission. The closest Patrick gets to mentioning the destruction of all that environment including those hundreds of trees is the lying euphemism, “Historical Parkways.”
The key entity in the destruction is the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation. The last time the Department of Conservation and Recreation fought for this destruction, they were seeking Obama moneys in the relief program targeted at getting us out of the Great Recession. Then they lied that all the trees were diseased, a lie proven by their filing with the City of Cambridge.
Fortunately, they lost because they came closer to mentioning in public what they were doing.
Now the lie is that they are talking underpasses for the Western Avenue, the River Street and the Anderson Bridges. They do not mention the 12 fold funding for massive destruction of trees and animal habitat in the area of the BU, the Harvard (MIT) and Longfellow Bridges, for the “associated” path.
But the Charles River “Conservancy” and their friends in the Cambridge Machine will tell you nonstop that they are holier than thou.
The leader of the CRC has publicly oozed when she has publicly discussed the destruction of those hundreds of trees.
She announced the start of the Longfellow Bridge project by oozing at the first tree destruction.
This is what is falsely proclaimed a “conservancy.”

For people listening to Boston Sierra Club endorsements of environmentally destructive members of and candidates for the Cambridge City Council, you should be aware that
(1) using the world’s definition of “environmentalism,” there are no environmentally responsible members of the Cambridge City Council; Cambridge’s definition is that environmentalists protect that which Cambridge does not feel like destroying; the Cambridge pols are oh, so pious using their secret, fraudulent definition;
(2) the school committee member running for Cambridge City Council fought for the outrages at the Magazine Beach playing fields;
(a) his indignant explanation is that he claims to be only responsible for the good stuff;
(b) that explanation is combined with exactly no demonstration of any meaningful opposition whatsoever to the outrages; and
(c) as is usual in Cambridge, his claims of “improvements” are belied by reality. The playing fields have been decreased in size by his project!!!!! This is to drain off the poisons being dumped to keep alive sickly introduced grasses which replaced healthy grass that survived the better part of a century without poisons; and
(3) there are Cambridge Machine activists very visible and apparently very active in the Boston Sierra Club.
If you are talking to a person associated with the Boston Sierra Club, do a credibility check. Ask if they are familiar with the “Urban Ring” rapid transit proposal. This is a subway proposal designed to link the existing subway spokes. I have been working on it since 1985. Cambridge raised the project in a comment to an environmental Impact Statement a few months ago.
If the Boston Sierra Club “expert” answers “yes,” that he / she is familiar with the Urban Ring rapid transit proposal, ask how many rail options there are. If the answer is “one,” you are getting the flat out lie put out by the City of Cambridge.
Cambridge’s flat out lie is that, of the TWO rail options, the only one that exists is the environmentally destructive streetcar option which the City of Cambridge supports. This option would be highly destructive to the environment near the Destroyed Nesting Area of the Charles River White Geese.
The reality is that THE STATE LEGISLATURE HAS SUBSIDIZED THE OTHER OPTION, the responsible Orange Line / heavy rail option, the Kenmore crossing. The state legislature has subsidized the expansion of Yawkey Station as part of the massive Fenway Park area project which has gotten recent press.
Cambridge’s nonsensical proposal would move Yawkey Station three blocks. The Cambridge proposal would not work without moving Yawkey Station. The Kenmore Crossing uses the now subsidized and being expanded Yawkey Station as part of a brilliant megastation.
You should immediately respond to such nonsense from a Sierra Club “expert” by having nothing more to do with this person. Whether the person is stupid or venal is irrelevant, the person has no credibility and is not worthy of your time.
It is frequently difficult to pin these irresponsible people down in general. The deviant behavior in my test is extreme. They are pious in their demands that, if you are politically correct and pro environment, you have to rubber stamp them. Please do not waste your time arguing about destruction they can try to wiggle around.
Turn your back on them and walk away fast.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology Housing Expansion Presentation Coming
1. Context.
2. Meeting announced on MIT housing expansion.
3. Councilor from MIT/Harvard on destruction at the Cambridge Common.
4. Contacts, Miscellaneous.
1. Context.
Near the Grand Junction railroad tracks across from the MIT athletic fields is a more than block long building at least 12 stories high which is designed to look like a bee hive. This building is dominant. It is MIT Housing.
It came into existence in the usual Cambridge, MA deal. There has been a shelter for the homeless with alcohol problems on the city (as opposed to MIT) side of the Grand Junction Railroad near that structure. The Cambridge city council made a TEMPORARY deal with MIT to allow the shelter’s continued existence.
What they gave in place was to allow MIT to PERMANENTLY call the street adjoining that monstrous structure part of the lot on which the structure sits. Everybody else measures the size of their buildings under maximum floor area allowed based on the size of their lot. It is unheard of to count the street as part of the lot, but Cambridge allowed this in exchange for TEMPORARY continuation of use of the homeless structure.
So MIT gets reality. Cambridge homeless get a temporary use.
This is reality in the City of Cambridge, MA.
2. Meeting announced on MIT housing expansion.
Cambridge Day has a report announcing a meeting this coming Monday, September 30, 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm, toward the river from the Kendall Station on the Red Line, on Carleton Street, the fourth floor of MIT Building E25, room 401. The report is posted at http://www.cambridgeday.com/2013/09/23/mit-working-group-due-to-report-back-in-july-wants-citizen-input-on-housing-oct-1/.
This is to discuss the future of MIT housing.
MIT housing now dominates the riverfront from the Mass. Ave. Bridge, the first bridge east of the BU Bridge nearly to the Destroyed Nesting Area of the Charles River White Geese.
That monstrous bee hive dorm is constructed exactly where the MBTA planned to turn the Urban Ring transit line on the Kenmore Crossing. It is still possible to go under the dorm or go around it. Then the playing fields would still be above the Urban Ring.
A key MIT planner has publicly praised the leader of the Cambridge Machine’s fake neighborhood association for his position on Magazine Beach. This was a rare public communication of reality. The folks are destroying, destroying, destroying, and they recognize the value to their destruction of this company union.
Where will the next “housing” go?
A neutral detailed report on MIT’s plans for its public presentation is posted by Cambridge Day at http://www.cambridgeday.com/2013/09/23/mit-working-group-due-to-report-back-in-july-wants-citizen-input-on-housing-oct-1/.
The building where the meeting is being held is not that far from the two excellent groves of trees destroyed and being destroyed on the Cambridge end of the Longfellow Bridge construction.
MIT aggressively supports the destruction of hundreds of excellent trees on Memorial Drive as part of Governor Patrick’s House Bill 3332. It should be considered in a legislative hearing fairly soon.
3. Councilor from MIT/Harvard on destruction at the Cambridge Common.
Outside last week’s meeting of the Cambridge Machine, in front of quite a few people, I asked Councillor Cheung, the councilor from MIT and Harvard, when destruction is slated to start on the 22 trees he voted to destroy on the Cambridge Common.
He snubbed me.
Reality is so inconvenient.

Reality as seen by the Cambridge, MA, USA Machine, a very rotten world.
Reality as seen by the Cambridge Machine, a very rotten world.
These photos were taken on April 16, 2013 of victims of the rottenness which is politics in Cambridge, MA, so, of course in the corrupt world of Cambridge politics, they do not exist. The non stop lies of “holier than thou” combined with total suppression of inconvenient reality is politics in Cambridge, MA, USA.
*********
Other things which do not exist are the two groves of trees which have not been or are not being destroyed on the Cambridge end of the Longfellow Bridge.
Other things which do not exist are the hundreds of trees and animal habitat on the Charles River which are not slated for destruction by the money in House Bill 3332.
Other things which do not exist are the 22 excellent trees on the Cambridge Common which nine incumbent Cambridge City Councilors have not voted to destroy, most because they do not block the view.
Other things which do not exist are the animals at Alewife killed off in the destruction of acres of Alewife which did not happen and which will not be greatly expanded as a result of the prevention of responsible alternative ways to protect against flooding in North Cambridge.
Other things which do not exist are the bizarre wall of bushes blocking off the Charles River from the Magazine Beach playing fields and which can only responsibly be explained as incompetence. The DCR does not know how to chop down bushes, but the Cambridge Machine, through corrupt practices, has not gone through the motion of voting to expand to the west behind the swimming pool.
Other things which do not exist are the invasive grasses introduced at the Magazine Beach playing fields, for which the City of Cambridge and state bureaucrats did not destroy perfectly good grasses which survived for the better part of a century.
Other things which do not exist are the poisons being dumped on the banks of the Charles River to keep alive the sickly introduced grasses which did not replace perfectly good grasses which survived for the better part of a century.
Other things which do not exist are the massive drainage systems which have not been installed in the middle of the Magazine Beach playing fields, and which do not drain off the poisons which are not being dumped on the banks of the Charles River to keep alive sickly introduced invasive grasses.
Other things which do not exist include the destruction of the boat docks at Magazine Beach.
Other things which do not exist is the pending destruction of the little parking lot needed by the little people’s picnic area to the west of the playing fields and at the foot of Magazine Street. After all, the Cambridge Machine loves that picnic area. The Cambridge Machine would not do anything to harm that picnic area.

Charles River “Birdwatchers” Destroying Hundreds of Trees and Animal Habitat.
1. Cambridge Machine Fights for Destruction of Hundreds of Trees.
2. Last Post.
3. House Bill 3332
4. The “Birdwatchers” and their Destruction of bird habitat while lying they love birds.
1. Cambridge Machine Fights for Destruction of Hundreds of Trees.
These are photos of the excellent grove of trees which the Cambridge Machine is fighting to destroy. It is located at the point where Memorial Drive splits into a divided boulevard. This is maybe half a mile east of the Destroyed Nesting Area of the Charles River White Geese.
Approximately 84 trees in this approximately 105 tree grove are targeted for destruction.
These trees are in the smaller half of the hundreds of trees slated for destruction.
So naturally, the Cambridge Machine conducted a bird watch last Saturday lying of their concern for birds severely threatened by its massive tree destructiveness.
2. Last Post.
In my last post, I reported on a typical con from the Cambridge Machine. Saturday, they apparently conducted a birdwatch in the Magazine Beach area of the Charles River. This area has seen significant destruction by their friends in the last 13 years. They are fighting to keep the destruction and to expand it. Their typical tactic is to lie that they are friendly to the environment and fool people into stabbing the cause of the environment in the back.
That analysis is posted at http://charlesriverwhitegeeseblog.blogspot.com/2013/09/charles-river-environmental-destroyers.html.
The problem goes way beyond the obvious destruction they are fighting to expand and which they are working to keep people from standing up to, as stated in that report.
3. House Bill 3332
House Bill 3332 would destroy hundreds of excellent trees between the BU Bridge, the core of the habitat of the Charles River White Geese and the Longfellow Bridge, the second bridge to the east of the core habitat of the Charles River White Geese. The bureaucrats previously sought Obama anti-recession money for this destruction lying that these excellent trees were all diseased.
Supposedly, there will be a hearing on this bill in Boston this month. The lie used to fight for this outrage was “underpasses.” They fought for “underpasses” under the three bridges west of the BU Bridge, and clearly under the BU Bridge. They lied by omission that they are fighting for the destruction of hundreds of trees between the BU Bridge and the Longfellow Bridge, the second bridge east of the BU Bridge.
The BU Bridge is the core of the 32 year habitat of the beautiful, valuable Charles River White Geese. The nesting area of the Charles River White Geese held a wide variety of free animals until multiple attacks by Cambridge and the bureaucrats, but the bureaucrats have declared war on free animals in their “Master Plan” which gets modified to turn lies in the Master Plan into the real destruction implemented.
The agency responsible for the underpasses, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, has rejected the “underpasses” proposal because it is so environmentally destructive, not mentioned by the con artists.
The governor’s implementation in House Bill 3332 includes, according to the fraudulently named Charles River “Conservancy”, about $2 to 4 million for the underpasses and about $22 to $24 million for the associated “paths”. The associated paths destroy those hundreds of trees and animal habitat.
I have analyzed this bill in detail at http://charlesriverwhitegeeseblog.blogspot.com/2013/08/analysis-of-governor-patricks.html.
The Cambridge Machine has fought for this destruction, using the euphemism “underpasses.”
4. The “Birdwatchers” and their Destruction of bird habitat while lying they love birds.
It is very difficult to call any part of the behavior of this Company Union less or more rotten than any other, but you take their fight one step down and it really gets rotten.
Part of the destruction which the machine has fought for in the corrupt vote of April 23, 2013, is the destruction of hundreds of trees between the BU Bridge and the Longfellow Bridge. It is being implemented in House Bill 3332. This action makes their “birdwatch” all the more worthy of contempt.
The hypocrites “love birds” while supporting heartless abuse of the 32 year resident Charles River White Geese and destroying hundreds of excellent trees which are crucial parts of their habitat of the birds they lie that they love.
The continuing character of the Cambridge Machine during the 30 to 40 years I have fought it is consistently described by “You cannot possibly be so stupid.” This is the running characteristic of this organization. It cannot be stupidity. Hypocrisy, of course, but not stupidity.
There was present at the first meeting of the Cambridge Machine in which they presented the state bureaucrat’s wish to expand destruction at Magazine Beach a bureaucrat who very much personifies the outrage of the last 13 years. This guy has progressed the cause through multiple and key lies. Naturally, the Cambridge Machine presents him as a person to be respected and admired.
The bureaucrat in January insisted on extension of the destruction at the playing fields to the area west of the playing fields. His destruction would surround the elderly building the Machine says is the only thing to be concerned about at Magazine Beach. It would destroy the wetlands west of that building and behind the Magazine Beach pool. Plus his plan would destroy the tiny parking lot which is needed for the picnic area and the elderly building, both of which they claim to love. So they indulged in corrupt practices to create the lie of support.
One of the items the bureaucrat insisted on is a bike highway to be constructed in the wetlands behind the Magazine Beach pool.
This bike highway is part of the “path” system in House Bill 3332 with its destruction of those hundreds of trees, needed by the birds the Cambridge Machine claims to cherish.
“You cannot possibly be so stupid.”

Supposedly, there will be a hearing on this bill in Boston this month. The lie used to fight for this outrage was “underpasses.” They fought for “underpasses” under the three bridges west of the BU Bridge, and clearly under the BU Bridge. They lied by omission that they are fighting for the destruction of hundreds of trees between the BU Bridge and the Longfellow Bridge, the second bridge east of the BU Bridge.
The BU Bridge is the core of the 32 year habitat of the beautiful, valuable Charles River White Geese. The nesting area of the Charles River White Geese held a wide variety of free animals until multiple attacks by Cambridge and the bureaucrats, but the bureaucrats have declared war on free animals in their “Master Plan” which gets modified to turn lies in the Master Plan into the real destruction implemented.
The agency responsible for the underpasses, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, has rejected the “underpasses” proposal because it is so environmentally destructive, not mentioned by the con artists.
The governor’s implementation in House Bill 3332 includes, according to the fraudulently named Charles River “Conservancy”, about $2 to 4 million for the underpasses and about $22 to $24 million for the associated “paths”. The associated paths destroy those hundreds of trees and animal habitat.
I have analyzed this bill in detail at http://charlesriverwhitegeeseblog.blogspot.com/2013/08/analysis-of-governor-patricks.html.
The Cambridge Machine has fought for this destruction, using the euphemism “underpasses.”
4. The “Birdwatchers” and their Destruction of bird habitat while lying they love birds.
It is very difficult to call any part of the behavior of this Company Union less or more rotten than any other, but you take their fight one step down and it really gets rotten.
Part of the destruction which the machine has fought for in the corrupt vote of April 23, 2013, is the destruction of hundreds of trees between the BU Bridge and the Longfellow Bridge. It is being implemented in House Bill 3332. This action makes their “birdwatch” all the more worthy of contempt.
The hypocrites “love birds” while supporting heartless abuse of the 32 year resident Charles River White Geese and destroying hundreds of excellent trees which are crucial parts of their habitat of the birds they lie that they love.
The continuing character of the Cambridge Machine during the 30 to 40 years I have fought it is consistently described by “You cannot possibly be so stupid.” This is the running characteristic of this organization. It cannot be stupidity. Hypocrisy, of course, but not stupidity.
There was present at the first meeting of the Cambridge Machine in which they presented the state bureaucrat’s wish to expand destruction at Magazine Beach a bureaucrat who very much personifies the outrage of the last 13 years. This guy has progressed the cause through multiple and key lies. Naturally, the Cambridge Machine presents him as a person to be respected and admired.
The bureaucrat in January insisted on extension of the destruction at the playing fields to the area west of the playing fields. His destruction would surround the elderly building the Machine says is the only thing to be concerned about at Magazine Beach. It would destroy the wetlands west of that building and behind the Magazine Beach pool. Plus his plan would destroy the tiny parking lot which is needed for the picnic area and the elderly building, both of which they claim to love. So they indulged in corrupt practices to create the lie of support.
One of the items the bureaucrat insisted on is a bike highway to be constructed in the wetlands behind the Magazine Beach pool.
This bike highway is part of the “path” system in House Bill 3332 with its destruction of those hundreds of trees, needed by the birds the Cambridge Machine claims to cherish.
“You cannot possibly be so stupid.”

Charles River: Environmental Destroyers Birdwatch
The fake groups fighting for destruction of the environment in and near Cambridge, MA, routinely praise themselves as holier than thou on environmental matters.
Yesterday, at least as far as they publicized, the Company Union lying that it is defending the Charles River conducted a bird watch.
The trouble is that their definition of environmental matters is protection of that part of the environment the City of Cambridge is not fighting to destroy this week, and the distinctions made are frequently bizarre.
And the birds they are watching are not the ones on the receiving end of the heartless abuse they are fighting to continue. The cruel abuse of the Charles River White Geese will be omitted from the spiel in the “bird watch” just as so many other outrages will be omitted.
The Cambridge Machine is functioning as an excellent company union to keep going the outrages on the Charles River:
1. the heartless abuse of the 32 year resident Charles River White Geese, starving them and destroying the undestroyed part of their 32 year habitat by all sorts of techniques.
2. The blocking off of the Magazine Beach playing fields from the Charles River with a bizarre introduced wall of bushes which have no business on the Charles River. They do, however, greatly succeed in keeping the Charles River White Geese from their food at Magazine Beach of most of the last 32 years. The bureaucrats supposedly have a Master Plan, but the Master Plan called for a lawn to the river. When they violated that lie, they changed the Master Plan.
3. The introduction of bizarre grass in the playing fields in place of grass which survived there in a very healthy manner for most of the last century. The bizarre introduced grass is very clearly invasive because it cannot survive without actions taken hostile to the environment, in this case, the dumping of poisons to keep it alive on the banks of the Charles River.
4. A non incumbent running for Cambridge City Council supported the destruction because it would “improve” the Magazine Beach playing fields. But the Magazine Beach playing fields have been decreased in size to drain off the poisons to keep alive the sickly grass which replaced perfectly good grass. The perfectly good grass can be returned at minimal cost by sewing responsible seed instead of their beloved poisons.
5. And after years of telling people to look at a building that had not been opened to the public for 80 years and not to look at the real problems, the company union indulged in corrupt behavior to create the form of approval for doubling the existing problems without the reality of approval.
6. And after years of telling people to look at that building and telling people of their love for the picnic area next to it, the company union has supported the destruction of the parking lot needed for the building and picnic area through the corrupt vote.
7. And they do not want to know of the great increase in harm to the Charles River White Geese through their friends’ latest outrages.
But they do conduct “Bird Watches” to lie to well meaning people of their “concern for the environment” by selectively bragging of minor things and being as secret as possible about the destruction they fight for.

Very Partial Summary of Atrocities, Cambridge, MA, USA
I promised a non incumbent city council candidate some documentation on destruction.
I sent a little more than I intended but this summary, as limited as it is, could be of value to people talking to the Cambridge Machine or to any Cambridge City Council incumbent, current or recent past, or even to decent human beings fooled by the non stop holier than thou lies coming out of the City of Cambridge and the Cambridge Machine. Slight edits

It was a pleasure seeing you yesterday. I am following up, as promised.
A sample of how I work on my cable show can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCu40nqeR881. This is part of my interview of Jamake Pasqual during the last election. A more general sample of my performance work may be seen at http://youtu.be/lsNnUctTS94. This is my Actor’s Reel, presenting clips from five gigs and a Phoenix Photo from a sixth. The Aerodynamics clip was shot at ImprovBoston. The final Phoenix photo is from a show I MC’d at The Oberon, 2 Arrow Street, a coed / mixer targeted burlesque event.

I did edit out some language particularly identifying the individual. In any case, this summary is OF NECESSITY partial.
Cambridge, MA, USA has a really rotten city government working with really rotten state bureaucrats and a governor who has apparently given in to the dark side.
I would anticipate that many of the links include my list of people to contact and my technique of evaluating and responding to destructive folks in the Boston Sierra Club when such folks are spouting out flat out lies apparently originating in the government of the City of Cambridge.
