Some recent experiments have included workshops on television transmitter building and circuit bending with an ecological concern. After their success at the Whitney Biennial they consider themselves at a crossroads. 'Perhaps we need a new 5 year plan. Perhaps we need a 1 year plan. Maybe we need a new directive. Maybe we're done.' They will present their history and recent projects, and in keeping to their collaborative process, they will ask the audience... What next? Neighborhood Public Radio (NPR) was founded in 2004 by multimedia artists and educators LeE Montgomery, Jon Brumit and Michael Trigilio. Acting as a traveling band of guerilla broadcasters, NPR personnel have hosted thematic broadcasts far and wide including in many galleries in San Francisco, at Chicago's Version 5 Festival (2005) and San Jose's Zero1 Festival (2006) as well as various projects in Europe. One of these was in Serbia where, funded by a grant from CEC Artslink, NPR worked with media organization kuda.org. Enabled by a Creative Work Fund Grant, NPR recently collaborated in a series of projects collectively titled Radio Cartography in partnership with San Francisco's Southern Exposure Gallery. Most recently, the NPR collaborative had a residency at the Headlands Center for Art in Marin, CA and followed that with a four month residency in a storefront on Madison Avenue in New York as part of the 2008 Whitney Biennial. Neighborhood Public Radio has been named 'Best Super Local Radio Station' by San Francisco Magazine and has been featured in Punk Planet magazine, Artforum, Women's Wear Daily, and the Chicago Reader. http://www.neighborhoodpublicradio.org http://laughingsquid.com/squidlist/events 4/28 6:30-8:30pm Getting Your To Do List DONE $20 Citizen Space, 425 Second Street, #100, SF 94107 http://futurewomenleaders.net/events?eventId=53655&EventViewMode=2&CalendarViewType=1&SelectedDate=4/23/2009 Latex Fashion School Thursday, April 30th, 7:00pm at Mission Control 2519 Mission St SF http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/event.php?eid=108265290464 April 30 - May 3 Firedrums Camp Cutter, Santa Cruz, CA http://firedrums.org AE911Truth Booth at AIA National Convention Thu, Apr 30, 2009 - May 2, 2009 Moscone Center 747 Howard St., SF, CA Details on the Convention at- http://www.aiaconvention.com http://ae911Truth.org AE = Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth Richard Gage will make a presentation specifically geared for architects in San Francisco on May 2nd, after the convention is over.

Black | PBS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rz1b__MdtHY http://www.pbs.org/billmoyers The financial industry brought the economy to its knees, but how did they get away with it? With the nation wondering how to hold the bankers accountable, Bill Moyers sits down with Bill Black, the former senior regulator who cracked down on banks during the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s. Black offers his analysis of what went wrong and his critique of the bailout. This show aired April 3, 2009. Bill Moyers Journal airs Fridays at 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings).

FYI it IS NOT LEGAL be naked in PARKS in SF. Though on Bay To Breakers they look the other way DURING the race. Though they claim they will not allow alcohol or big floats. So my guess is : they will stop some big keg floats. They also claim they will discourage big floats (because people abandon these in the neighborhood. They are down on the alcohol because people: pee too much in the park, on doorsteps, litter cups, fight. Lightning in a Bottle 2009 Memorial Day Wknd May 22-25th Santa Barbara, CA POSTPONED?

This convergence is intended to develop new relationships through dialogue, committed engagement, and trust. We desire to collectively re-envision our communities. We want to develop sustainability awareness and action, civic engagement, and localization of culture, economy, and decision-making. We promote respect for all life and the planet that sustains us The convergence will be located in Golden Gate Park in Sharon Meadow, June 21 and 22, 2008. Ten neighborhood tents will make up the village. Each neighborhood will represent a community need, addressing such issues as Youth Engagement and Empowerment, Social Justice, Global Warming, Green Jobs , Greening the City and Schoolyards, Civic Engagement, Story Telling from our Elders, Sustainable Community (food, water and sewage security), Permaculture, World Peace, Health, Alternative Medicine, Education, Music, Dance and Art, GLBTQ, Race & Culture, Spirituality, and Community Communication. The "Village of Engagement" is a gathering of people from Bay Area Non-Profit Organizations, Foundations, members of the Community, Schools, Worker-Owned Coops, Entrepreneurs and representatives from our respective Bay Area City Governments. Participants will have the opportunity to design, envision, collaborate, and dialog with new friends on the future of their own neighborhoods. To prepare for the challenging times ahead of us, we encourage you to come, be heard, and engage. The format of your participation can be setting up a table or tent in one of the neighborhoods to collaborate and share information, interactive classes, power-point presentations, hands-on demonstrations of sustainable skills, forums or artistic endeavors. We provide the space....you fill it with your dreams. We are using the Wiser Earth platform to organize, plan and co-create the event at beautifulcommunities.org. This is a 100% noncommercial event. Nothing will be for sale. We encourage everyone to bring food and drink and extra to share with your new friends! Come experience and participate. "The New Me is We".

This is your chance to meet new friends, connect, cuddle, and have a real blast. When we were coming up with the idea for this party, we decided to cram as much "good stuff" into this event as we could possibly fit into 3 hours. So we decided to do a 3-in-1 event: 1) Cuddle Party Cuddle as much or as little as you want. This is a great way to make friends, ask for what you want, or just have fun cuddling. Unlike the last Cuddle Party, this one will be thrown by Y Nowers for Y Nowers. It's gonna be fuun! 2) Movie Night The movie is "I Heart Huckabees." (I <3 Huckabees.) What is the meaning of life? What is the meaning of hopelessness? Are we all connected, or are we separate? If you'd like to know the answer to these questions ... (or even if you don't give a damn) ... You'll have a great time watching this funny (and at times off the walls) comedy about three detectives/spies exploring these questions surrounding the universe and the meaning of life. 3) Potluck Bring a dish to share and taste all kinds of yummy foods that other people bring. And of course, get raving compliments on your creativity and cooking. This is an event you do *not* want to miss. The room will be packed, the food will be amazing, and the movie will crack you up.

Justin Herman Plaza. should the number 350 deserve a special notation in our collective consciousness? It is the target for the amount of carbon dioxide (in parts per million) that our atmosphere can maintain to survive over time, according to Dr. James E. Hansen, director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York. Currently we have 384 ppm in our atmosphere and it is increasing at an annual rate of about 1.5 ppm per year with current predictions at 500 ppm by the year 2050 and likely over 700 ppm by 2100. To compare, the amount of carbon in the atmosphere is up from 315 ppm in 1958 and around 275 ppm prior to America's Industrial Revolution in the eighteenth century. So, what's the plan? For starters, come to the race with the number 350 on your person, your bike, your helmet, wherever you want. This number is the focus of this ride. Also, bring a pen and SCRATCH paper. There will be opportunities for you to learn how to make less of an environmental impact and what exciting opportunities 350 can mean for you! The route will be through highly visible and populated areas of San Francisco with opportunities to stop and chat with "the locals" whenever you deem appropriate. Bring someone. Why come alone? Sure you'll meet many cool new people, but rides are always fun with friends and loved ones. Bring the kids. Bring your friend who would, but doesn't have a bike. (I'm sure you can ask your cool biker friends for a loaner!) Bring that special person that gives you the butterflies for a sober, socially-enriching, and parental-approving occasion!

Post Carbon Marin Planning Meeting Who: Post Carbon Marin What: Identify key areas to focus on to prepare for peak oil When: Wednesday April 30, 2008, 7pm to 9pm Where: Home of Jonathan Frieman, 170 Oak Drive, San Rafael, CA, 94901 Link to Google Map: http://tinyurl.com/2eo6lc Parking: the small amount of parking will fill up quickly so please arrive early to park along the road. Ridesharing: Please post your ride at http://www.rideamigos.com if you can offer a ride. Don't be shy about splitting gas money...we'll be doing a lot of that soon. Direct questions to: Jonathan Frieman -- yogi@well.com Why was Post Carbon Marin formed? Worldwide oil production is very close to beginning its inexorable decline. It will impact almost every part of our lives, from food production to how we earn and spend money. What happened at the first meeting? Residents from all over Marin came to learn the very latest about oil and natural gas. We also started to discuss how we might prepare while creating a thriving community. What will we do at this meeting? We'll discuss how to organize ourselves; we'll launch some initiatives and provide updates on others already in process (we've begun to collect infrastructure information for the county: how old are the water/sewer pipes, etc.). Where is Post Carbon Marin on the Net? You'll find us at http://postcarbonmarin.relocalize.net To be notified of future events, register at Relocalize.net, then visit http://postcarbonmarin.relocalize.net and click "Join this Group."

Justin Herman Plaza. should the number 350 deserve a special notation in our collective consciousness? It is the target for the amount of carbon dioxide (in parts per million) that our atmosphere can maintain to survive over time, according to Dr. James E. Hansen, director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York. Currently we have 384 ppm in our atmosphere and it is increasing at an annual rate of about 1.5 ppm per year with current predictions at 500 ppm by the year 2050 and likely over 700 ppm by 2100. To compare, the amount of carbon in the atmosphere is up from 315 ppm in 1958 and around 275 ppm prior to America's Industrial Revolution in the eighteenth century. So, what's the plan? For starters, come to the race with the number 350 on your person, your bike, your helmet, wherever you want. This number is the focus of this ride. Also, bring a pen and SCRATCH paper. There will be opportunities for you to learn how to make less of an environmental impact and what exciting opportunities 350 can mean for you! The route will be through highly visible and populated areas of San Francisco with opportunities to stop and chat with "the locals" whenever you deem appropriate. Bring someone. Why come alone? Sure you'll meet many cool new people, but rides are always fun with friends and loved ones. Bring the kids. Bring your friend who would, but doesn't have a bike. (I'm sure you can ask your cool biker friends for a loaner!) Bring that special person that gives you the butterflies for a sober, socially-enriching, and parental-approving occasion!

Was Thomas Malthus wrong? Do economies self-correct or self-destruct when they operate as if resources were limitless? The Ecological Footprint explores these questions, and provides the tools to answer them. Global Footprint Network Executive Director Mathis Wackernagel will showcase applications from around the world, showing how government agencies, NGOs, businesses, and cities are making use of this tool to address issues of sustainability. Wackernagel will discuss the way, just as financial accounting tracks economic health, measures like the Footprint can help us manage our ecological balance sheet and develop policies that protect rather than deplete our natural capital. Making Sustainability Real in a Business Environment Your business recycles, has switched to renewable energy and compact fluorescents--now what? How do businesses incorporate sustainability practices that engage their employees, customers, clients, and stakeholders in a meaningful and proactive way? Several case studies of businesses that have used ClimatePartner's processes will be examined to show that sound sustainability practices are not only good for the planet, but good for business, too.

Bummer Rupert Censorship Murdoch bought MySpace. 35.0 km for our planet http://350ride.googlepages.com 35.0 kilometers. 350 cyclists. 3 May 2008. 5:50pm. Justin Herman Plaza. should the number 350 deserve a special notation in our collective consciousness? It is the target for the amount of carbon dioxide (in parts per million) that our atmosphere can maintain to survive over time, according to Dr. James E. Hansen, director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York. Currently we have 384 ppm in our atmosphere and it is increasing at an annual rate of about 1.5 ppm per year with current predictions at 500 ppm by the year 2050 and likely over 700 ppm by 2100. To compare, the amount of carbon in the atmosphere is up from 315 ppm in 1958 and around 275 ppm prior to America's Industrial Revolution in the eighteenth century. So, what's the plan? For starters, come to the race with the number 350 on your person, your bike, your helmet, wherever you want. This number is the focus of this ride. Also, bring a pen and SCRATCH paper. There will be opportunities for you to learn how to make less of an environmental impact and what exciting opportunities 350 can mean for you! The route will be through highly visible and populated areas of San Francisco with opportunities to stop and chat with "the locals" whenever you deem appropriate. Bring someone. Why come alone? Sure you'll meet many cool new people, but rides are always fun with friends and loved ones. Bring the kids. Bring your friend who would, but doesn't have a bike. (I'm sure you can ask your cool biker friends for a loaner!) Bring that special person that gives you the butterflies for a sober, socially-enriching, and parental-approving occasion!

And, if it's not already too late, perhaps it will prevent the extinction of our species. M. King Hubbert, a petroleum geologist employed by Shell Oil Co., described peak oil in 1956. Production of crude oil, like the production of many non-renewable resources, follows a bell-shaped curve. The top of the curve is termed "peak oil," or "Hubbert's peak," and it represents the halfway point for production. http://www.dieoff.org http://www.vhemt.org Seattle Mayor Talks Succession http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politics/2004357406_mayors18m.html <http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/politics/2004357406_mayors18m.html> Public Must Fight to Maintain Net Neutrality by Lawrence Lessig and Ben Scott http://www.commondreams.org/archive/2008/04/17/8361 http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/04/17/EDM11064UL.DTL http://www.chycho.com/?q=node/1679 The World has $54.31 trillion of external debt: exactly who is the World indebted to?

April 22nd at the Sunset Community Center (Lawton @ 29th Avenue) 6pm - 8pm. This is your chance to support a proposal to create a Wildlife Care Center at Lake Merced! This meeting is being hosted by the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) who own the land around Lake Merced. The purpose is to gather public input on the master plan that is being created to increase recreational use and enhance the habitat around Lake Merced. Several locations around the lake will be discussed, including the 13 acres that have been leased by the Rod and Gun Club for an outdoor shooting range for the past 80 years. Three options are being offered for your comment at this location known as the John Muir Site: 1) Status Quo: Pacific Rod and Gun Club lease renewed. They continue to exclusively use 13 acres of the lake's western shore for trap and skeet shooting, and draw revenue from renting out the banquet room. 2) Reduced number of skeet and trap shoot ranges. Some boat storage. (possibly nature center and wildlife hospital also - though having a wildlife hospital at a gun range is not feasible.) 3) New use of these 13 acres to include: * Nature Center to offer nature/ environmental education classes for all ages. * Wildlife Care Center to provide care for resident and migratory wildlife. (SF does not have one!) * Habitat enhancement - to increase biodiversity of wildlife, increase bird and butterfly viewing opportunities. * Possibly a one -mile nature trail through botanical gardens of habitat plants -making the area more attractive for walking. (Community planting opportunity) * Picnic areas in bird and butterfly gardens * Meadow for volleyball, frisbee and other casual recreational use * Boat storage and launch, and possibly seating for viewing sculling events. A land use decision will be made based in large part on the public's desired use of the area. SO - PLEASE SPEAK UP FOR A WILDLIFE - AND A WILDLIFE CARE CENTER!

Did Bush sr. Kill JFK? How does that effect the election 2008? My name is Paul Kangas. I am the Vice President for Veteran for Peace. It will take a strike by front line GI's, as happened in Vietnam & during WWI to stop this war. We need to reach out to young boys, age 9 & recruit them into the anti-war movement. I joined the peace movement when I was age 9. Then I was drafted. In the Navy, at age 19 in 1961, I helped organize a strike against the Bay of Pigs. Thanks of President Kennedy, the invasion of Cuba was stopped. After than, I got orders to go to Vietnam in 1963. Again I refused to go to war. I was then sent to Iceland for a year of punishment duty. Kennedy then ordered all US troops out of Vietnam, Executive Order 263. Bush then killed JFK. There was a movie made about strikes by front line troops, in WWI, called Merry Christmas. Have you seen the movie? Most vets have seen the movie. It is quite powerful.

April 23, 7 PM Peter Singer speaks on "All Animals Are Equal - But in What Sense of Equality?" Free and open to the public. In Dinkelspiel Auditorium, Stanford University. Map: http://campus-map.stanford.edu/index.cfm?ID=02-200 Singer is the author of "Animal Liberation", a book sometimes credited with starting the modern animal rights movement. In it, he argued that "all animals are equal." The claim is often misunderstood, and sometimes used to caricature the animal movement. In this lecture Singer will explain what he means by the claim, why it is something that we all ought to accept, and what its implications are for our everyday life. Singer holds a joint appointment at Princeton's University Center for Human Values and at the University of Melbourne's Centre for Applied Philosophy and Public Ethics. He is the author of numerous books and articles, including "The Way We Eat: Why Our Food Choices Matter", 2006. ==== Peter Singer is one of the best-known contemporary philosophers and a central figure in animal rights. His classic book Animal Liberation, first published in 1975, is widely hailed as the catalyst for the modern animal rights movement. He is also the author of many other books on a range of subjects related to ethics and responsibility. Singer was an early inductee into the Animal Rights Hall of Fame, and currently teaches Bioethics at Princeton University.

Was Thomas Malthus wrong? Do economies self-correct or self-destruct when they operate as if resources were limitless? The Ecological Footprint explores these questions, and provides the tools to answer them. Global Footprint Network Executive Director Mathis Wackernagel will showcase applications from around the world, showing how government agencies, NGOs, businesses, and cities are making use of this tool to address issues of sustainability. Wackernagel will discuss the way, just as financial accounting tracks economic health, measures like the Footprint can help us manage our ecological balance sheet and develop policies that protect rather than deplete our natural capital. Making Sustainability Real in a Business Environment Your business recycles, has switched to renewable energy and compact fluorescents--now what? How do businesses incorporate sustainability practices that engage their employees, customers, clients, and stakeholders in a meaningful and proactive way? Several case studies of businesses that have used ClimatePartner's processes will be examined to show that sound sustainability practices are not only good for the planet, but good for business, too.

I’m having a focus group on Thursday, April 17th from 7-10 PM, I would love it if you would come and share your opinions about what sex-positive women and couples want (and will use) on the internet. I’m working at a huge personals and hookup site, and my new assignment is in Women’s Marketing, and finding out more about what ladies want from a personals site. The site has a bounty of men, women seeking women and couples seeking women. What’s needed now are more of the women they are all seeking online. They have a huge male enrollment, for sure. It's set up well for its original target market. I want to give them feedback on making it more functional and user-friendly to women. Please join me on April 17th for our Women’s Focus Group, and tell it like it is. We’ll be all ready to pamper you and pick your cute lil brain with -Free drinks -Free boudoir photography from a professional photographer (bring a sexy outfit, or choose something from our closet of drape-y and deepcut get-ups) -Free upgrades to Silver level membership on our site. A silver membership is worth $24.95/month, but you’ll get one free and open-ended. Use it to: * send and receive emails * use the site’s IM (check people out, without giving out your Yahoo or Messenger IM info) * play on webcam (again, you play safer because you're not giving out your personal info) * if you choose, you can also make your profile discreet. A discreet profile will only allow your pics to be seen by those on your friend's list (keep your boss from knowing you're a pervert, if you so choose). * I can provide ad-writing help and photo verification. Photo verification proves that the person looks like the pics they have online (see, this woulda been helpful for my date last week, who was NOT photo-verified and who looked nothing like his pics. I’m still learning from my mistakes…let me help you avoid them!) Couples are more than welcome, and please forward this email far and wide. We have a huge space in San Francisco for this, and I’d love to fill it with people like us. If you’re a Woman or Couple, please contact me at dixie.fling@gmail.com to RSVP. I’ll send you details ….we’ll be adding to the evening’s line-up as we get closer to the event, and to what you get for being our kind of gal! THANK YOU, and please email me ASAP at dixie.fling@gmail.com to RSVP.

Did Bush sr. Kill JFK? How does that effect the election 2008? My name is Paul Kangas. I am the Vice President for Veteran for Peace. It will take a strike by front line GI's, as happened in Vietnam & during WWI to stop this war. We need to reach out to young boys, age 9 & recruit them into the anti-war movement. I joined the peace movement when I was age 9. Then I was drafted. In the Navy, at age 19 in 1961, I helped organize a strike against the Bay of Pigs. Thanks of President Kennedy, the invasion of Cuba was stopped. After than, I got orders to go to Vietnam in 1963. Again I refused to go to war. I was then sent to Iceland for a year of punishment duty. Kennedy then ordered all US troops out of Vietnam, Executive Order 263. Bush then killed JFK. There was a movie made about strikes by front line troops, in WWI, called Merry Christmas. Have you seen the movie? Most vets have seen the movie. It is quite powerful. Meet Paul Kangas, on 4-23-08, Herbst Theater, Rm 215, 401 VanNess & McAllister, 6pm, slideshow on the Bay of Pigs, the JFK assassination & the 2008 election.

Was Thomas Malthus wrong? Do economies self-correct or self-destruct when they operate as if resources were limitless? The Ecological Footprint explores these questions, and provides the tools to answer them. Global Footprint Network Executive Director Mathis Wackernagel will showcase applications from around the world, showing how government agencies, NGOs, businesses, and cities are making use of this tool to address issues of sustainability. Wackernagel will discuss the way, just as financial accounting tracks economic health, measures like the Footprint can help us manage our ecological balance sheet and develop policies that protect rather than deplete our natural capital. Making Sustainability Real in a Business Environment Your business recycles, has switched to renewable energy and compact fluorescents--now what? How do businesses incorporate sustainability practices that engage their employees, customers, clients, and stakeholders in a meaningful and proactive way? Several case studies of businesses that have used ClimatePartner's processes will be examined to show that sound sustainability practices are not only good for the planet, but good for business, too.

Serve at the 16th Street BART Plaza. 5 pm Thursday April 10: Free Movie!! Lonely are the Brave (1962) Based on a novel by Edward Abbey, Lonely Are the Brave is a leftist western. Its hero, flawlessly portrayed by Kirk Douglas, is John W. Burns, a cowboy anarchist who carries no ID, respects no authority, and pays attention only to his friends and his horse. When his oldest friend is jailed for giving aid to illegal immigrants, Burns deliberately gets himself arrested in an attempt to break his friend out of jail. His friend refuses to go, so Burns winds up on the run from the law by himself. Always polite, always fair, always a “fuck you” to those above him, the brave cowboy deals with many issues that matter now: individual freedom versus authoritarian clampdowns, the criminalization of sanctuary for “illegal aliens,” ID cards, military helicopters in border manhunts, and an increasingly militarized and regimented America. 9 pm Station 40 3030B 16th Street @ Mission SF Wed Apr 9 http://studentsforafreetibet.org http://humanrightstorch.org http://notorchintibet.org 10AM 4/9 Tibetan Freedom Torch http://www.indybay.org Wed, April 9, 2008 1pm torch relay starts - be there early to stake your spot! http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/object/article?f=/c/a/2008/04/01/BA97VU1VT.DTL&o=0 beforehand - 10am - meet up at Ferry Park (between Washington & Clay streets off of Drum.

When the Official Torch Run returns from the Marina District, we will follow the Official Run to the closing ceremony at Justin Herman Plaza. I estimate the total distance at a little over one mile. We are not exactly a protest. We are positively pointing out: 1. The original Olympic Athletes participated nude and 2. We support Human Rights everywhere The original Olympic athletes covered themselves with olive oil. I will bring Baby Oil for those who wish the look. Optional: Make a faux-torch, or two, labeled "Human Rights." If you don't have one, don't worry. I am happy to relay a torch to you. Note: Don't bother with a real flame because of Fire Marshall and permit issues. Be sure to pass on this invitation to all interested parties.

It does something that none of the other 911 truth films do: it shows us that there's a large movement out there. It shows us that there's a rational, valid, and organized voice rightfully questioning the 'war on terror' and the event (9/11) that sparked it. The stand-up comics and stage artists in this film are both hilarious and compellingly informative. The music by David Rovics is fantastic and overall the film is just alive with energy and inspiration. It manages to connect to people through humor above all which is very powerful and which would resonate with anyone.

Will the light brown apple moth prove to be the invasive threat to California agriculture that the USDA claims it to be, or have agricultural damages been grossly exaggerated? What will happen to local organics if the California Department of Food and Agriculture is allowed to follow through on their proposal to douse the Bay Area with pesticides month in and month out for years to come? Should the vulnerabilities created by conventional agricultural practices be an excuse for eradication projects that put public and environmental health at risk? Come hear about alternative approaches from: • Agroecologist and UC Berkeley professor Miguel Altier • Mayor of Albany and registered nurse Robert Lieber • Farmers Robert Shultz and Ames Morison, and healthcare worker John Davis.

Did Bush sr. Kill JFK? How does that effect the election 2008? My name is Paul Kangas. I am the Vice President for Veteran for Peace. It will take a strike by front line GI's, as happened in Vietnam & during WWI to stop this war. We need to reach out to young boys, age 9 & recruit them into the anti-war movement. I joined the peace movement when I was age 9. Then I was drafted. In the Navy, at age 19 in 1961, I helped organize a strike against the Bay of Pigs. Thanks of President Kennedy, the invasion of Cuba was stopped. After than, I got orders to go to Vietnam in 1963. Again I refused to go to war. I was then sent to Iceland for a year of punishment duty. Kennedy then ordered all US troops out of Vietnam, Executive Order 263. Bush then killed JFK. There was a movie made about strikes by front line troops, in WWI, called Merry Christmas. Have you seen the movie? Most vets have seen the movie. It is quite powerful.

Ask a Scientist [topic: tornadoes] April 1, 7-9pm FREE Axis Cafe 1201 8th Street (btw. 16th & Irwin) This Month's Topic: Tornado Research in the Field 'Tornadoesare without question the ultimate manifestation of extreme weather. Noother meteorological event is as violent or awe inspiring.' (ChrisBurt, Extreme Weather) You better believe it! While even a humble F0 or F1 on the Fujita Scale (like the one that visited South San Franciscoin 2005) can damage property and push cars off the road, a monster F5tornado can rip a house right off its foundation and obliterate it.These treacherous giantscan reach a mile or more in width and can charge across the landscapeat over 70mph. And while the sustained rate of hurricane winds hasnever exceeded 200mph (in recorded history), the winds of the mostintense tornadoes can exceed a mind-boggling 300mph. Why and howdo these atmospheric powerhouses form? What is it about the uniquetopography of North America that makes the U.S. home to more tornadoesthan any other country? And most important, why would anyone want to get anywhere near one? One way to find out: let's ask John Monteverdi, meteorologist and storm chaser. ABOUTTHE SERIES: Ask a Scientist is an informative, entertaining, casualscience lecture series, held at a San Francisco cafe. Each eventfeatures a speaker on a current topic, a short presentation, and theopportunity to ask all those burning questions that have been keepingyou up at night. No tests, grades, or pressure…just food, drinks,socializing, and conversation about the universe’s most fascinatingmysteries.

It does something that none of the other 911 truth films do: it shows us that there's a large movement out there. It shows us that there's a rational, valid, and organized voice rightfully questioning the 'war on terror' and the event (9/11) that sparked it. The stand-up comics and stage artists in this film are both hilarious and compellingly informative. The music by David Rovics is fantastic and overall the film is just alive with energy and inspiration. It manages to connect to people through humor above all which is very powerful and which would resonate with anyone. Before and after the film, everyone's invited to indulge in our Humanist Tea House $5 donations accepted Thu Apr 10 4.10 Strybing Arboretum and Botanical Gardens Golden Gate Park, Ninth Ave at Lincoln; 661-1316, ext 303.

Will the light brown apple moth prove to be the invasive threat to California agriculture that the USDA claims it to be, or have agricultural damages been grossly exaggerated? What will happen to local organics if the California Department of Food and Agriculture is allowed to follow through on their proposal to douse the Bay Area with pesticides month in and month out for years to come? Should the vulnerabilities created by conventional agricultural practices be an excuse for eradication projects that put public and environmental health at risk? Come hear about alternative approaches from: • Agroecologist and UC Berkeley professor Miguel Altier • Mayor of Albany and registered nurse Robert Lieber • Farmers Robert Shultz and Ames Morison, and healthcare worker John Davis.

Did Bush sr. Kill JFK? How does that effect the election 2008? My name is Paul Kangas. I am the Vice President for Veteran for Peace. It will take a strike by front line GI's, as happened in Vietnam & during WWI to stop this war. We need to reach out to young boys, age 9 & recruit them into the anti-war movement. I joined the peace movement when I was age 9. Then I was drafted. In the Navy, at age 19 in 1961, I helped organize a strike against the Bay of Pigs. Thanks of President Kennedy, the invasion of Cuba was stopped. After than, I got orders to go to Vietnam in 1963. Again I refused to go to war. I was then sent to Iceland for a year of punishment duty. Kennedy then ordered all US troops out of Vietnam, Executive Order 263. Bush then killed JFK. There was a movie made about strikes by front line troops, in WWI, called Merry Christmas. Have you seen the movie? Most vets have seen the movie. It is quite powerful.
