On September 17, we want to see 20,000 people flood into lower Manhattan, set up tents, kitchens, peaceful barricades and occupy Wall Street for a few months. [1]

On the 17th of September, we want to see 20,000 people to flood into lower Manhattan, set up tents, kitchens, peaceful barricades and occupy Wall Street for a few months. [2]

Occupy Wall Street has recently come into the media spotlight, not because of our political message, but because certain high-ranking members of the NYPD punched, threw, and stepped on peaceful marchers. [3]

The time has come to deploy this emerging stratagem against the greatest corrupter of our democracy: Wall Street, the financial Gomorrah of America. [1]

Occupy Wall Street is an ongoing demonstration opposing what participants view as negative corporate influence over U.S. politics and a lack of legal repercussions over the global financial crisis. [4]

Tagged: New York City, wall st. [2]

Inspired by the Egyptian Tahrir Square uprising and the Spanish acampadas, we vow to end the monied corruption of our democracy … join us! [5]

Like our brothers and sisters in Egypt, Greece, Spain, and Iceland, we plan to use the revolutionary Arab Spring tactic of mass occupation to restore democracy in America. [2]

The protest was coordinated with similar though smaller events nationwide; as of September 27 the Occupy Wall Street site reported that “52 cities were occupied or organizing” including Boston, San Francisco, and Chicago, as coordinated on Occupytogether.org. [4]

Once there, we shall incessantly repeat one simple demand in a plurality of voices and we will not leave until that demand has been met. [2]

NYPD police officers prohibited protesters from erecting tents, citing loitering rules. [...] The aim of the demonstration is to begin a sustained occupation of Wall Street, the financial district of New York City, to draw attention to Wall Street’s misdeeds and call for structural economic reforms. [4]

A Facebook poll started by Adbusters suggests the demand might be an end to corporate personhood. [2]

Seth Rogen was the young co-star of a critically-acclaimed but short-lived TV series, and now he’s the comic movie star of the hits Knocked Up (with Katherine Heigl), Superbad (with Christopher Mintz-Plasse) and Observe and Report (2009). [1]

A talented actor, comedian and writer, Seth Rogen has come a long way from doing stand-up comedy as a teen. [2]

This site hopes to become your ultimate online resource for all things featuring the talented actor, producer, writer: Seth Rogen. [3]

Rogen began his career doing stand-up comedy during his teen years, winning the Vancouver Amateur Comedy Contest in 1998. [...] After landing a job as a staff writer on the final season of Da Ali G Show, for which Rogen and the other writers received an Emmy nomination, he was guided by film producer Judd Apatow toward a film career. [4]

Seth Rogen talks about his new film ‘The Green Hornet’, what attracted him to the film and working with Jay Chou and Cameron Diaz. [5]

Seth will appear as a guest on the late night talk show tonight to promote his latest film, 50/50. [3]

Regarding Apatow’s professional effect on Rogen, the actor said in 2009, “Obviously, I can’t stress how important Judd’s been to my career”. [...] Rogen has done voice work for the films Horton Hears a Who! [4]

For the past 60 years, a space-traveling smart-ass named Paul (SETH ROGEN of The Green Hornet, Knocked Up) has been locked up in a top-secret military base, advising world leaders about his kind. [5]

Rogen served as an actor and a writer for the show, and from there he went to the writing staff of Da Ali G Show (2003-04, starring Sacha Baron Cohen). [...] Canadian-born actor Seth Rogen tapped into his skills as a comedian when he was only 13, signing up for comedy classes and honing his deadpan style. [1]

Around this time Apatow would come up with odd requests for Rogen and Goldberg to pass, such as: turn an idea of his into a movie in 10 days and come up with 100 one-page-long ideas for films. [4]

A teenage comedian from Vancouver, B.C., Rogen got his big break in the 1999 Judd Apatow series Freaks and Geeks, along with cast members Linda Cardellini and James Franco. [1]

But Rogen and Streisand have indeed worked together in a road trip buddy comedy called My Mother’s Curse, which is in post-production and due out next year. [3]
