30 September: The Longest Table ever in Doel

Wednesday 30 September will be the very last day that people who rent a house in Doel are (officially) allowed to stay in the village. After that day, only 13 house owners will be left behind in a village that may fall prey to thiefs, vandals and other crooks.
Doel artist Denise Aerts, however, is not to be discouraged and invites everybody to come to Doel on Wednesday, 30 September to jointly compose the longest table that has ever been in the streets of the village and celebrate a symbolic "Last Supper" in Doel.
One detail: since there are no more facilities in the village, everybody has to bring his or her own (camping) table and a bag with food and beverages…. Denise and her friends will make sure there is music and a nice atmosphere.
The building of the table starts as of 14 hrs and the supper will begin around 18 hrs.

Denise urgently appeals on all sympathizers and people who do not want the village to disappear to join her symbolic Last Supper in Doel
on 30 September

Organiser: Denise Aerts (more info: denise.aerts@hotmail.com, 0485/180990)

===========================================

Het is duidelijk dat er plannen zijn voor het dorpje Doel, deelgemeente van Beveren.

Eerst was er sprake van een tweede dok.maar inmiddels heeft de kerncentrale voor de nodige bescherming van dit polderdorp gezorgd.

Dan was er sprake van het dorp op te hogen met 22 meter zand en zou het dienst doen als containerpark, sorry, maar er was geld voor de belgische kassa en véél werkgelegenheid beloofd!

Uiteindelijk werden huizen in puin gelegd is het dorp verlaten op een 100-tal inwoners na, en ……… wat was het plan ook alweer?

Er is géén plan!!!!

Op 1 oktober moeten de laatste huurders hun woningen ontruimd hebben en zullen de laatste 13 eigenaars van privé-woningen netjes achtergelaten worden temidden van een slagveld van dieven, vandalen en rovers.

as captured by Harun Wolf Trepte
========================================
De verenigde actiegroepen Doel moeten 15.000 handtekeningen verzamelen om spreekrecht in het Vlaams Parlement te kunnen afdwingen. Volgens de reglementering moeten deze handtekeningen, om geldig te zijn, op papieren formulieren ingezameld worden. We hebben de 15.000 handtekeningen snel nodig, de stemming over het gewestplan Doel zou nog dit najaar plaatsvinden.

Help ons door de formulieren te verspreiden binnen uw vereniging of kenissenkring. De ingevulde formulieren kunnen teruggestuurd worden naar Doelbewoonster Frie Lauwers, haar adres staat op het formulier.

Download petitieformulier hier >>>

Voor wie onmogelijk op papier kan ondertekenen, hebben we ook een eenvoudige petitie online gezet. Ademloos vzw kreeg "spreekgunst" in het parlement met ongeveer 50/50 electronische en papieren handtekeningen. Wij weten echter uit ervaring dat Doel op niet veel clementie vanwege de overheid kan rekenen…

Do NHL Bylaws Forbid The Atlanta Thrashers From Moving To Winnipeg?
The NHL is assuredly going to permit the Atlanta Thrashers to relocate to Winnipeg . But, according to the league’s own bylaws, is such a move allowed? I know it sounds elementary. And I’m sure that people’ve looked at them before. But really – has anyone actually legitimately read the NHL bylaws? And by read , I don’t mean selected the section on relocation that proves your point . I mean sat …
