In New York City today, Occupy Wall Street organizers have been told by the NYPD to make way for a cleaning of the park they occupy. "These rules include, "no tarps or sleeping bags" and "no lying down," they write. "So, seems likely that this is their attempt to shut down #OWS for good." The standoff starts Friday morning (adding: at 7 a.m.)

Meanwhile, Occupy everywhere keeps going. Above, Katherine Dassis sends a pic from an occupation Monday in Kamuela, Hawaii. Below, Pam Donnelly sends one from Houston yesterday -- she says the sign in the middle is the classic "This guy sucks."

(How to send us stuff.)
