Sex, Love, and Enlightenment with Dr. Deborah Anapol at One Taste
Tuesday, March 6, 7:45 PM One Taste Urban Retreat Center
1074 Folsom St at 7th San Francisco, CA 94103 415.503.1100
www.onetastesf.com/urbanmon...ture.html
Sex, love, and enlightenment! For those ready to move on from the quest for material rewards and worldly success; sex, love and enlightenment often become the carrots motivating our behavior. When these essentially spiritual energies become the objects of egoic pursuit the search is doomed from the outset.
Join Dr Deborah Taj Anapol for an enlivening discussion of how sex and love can serve to create greater awareness and how they can lead us down the primrose path of self-deception, addiction, and separation. What do we really mean by conscious sex and conscious relationship? What is the true nature of love? What happens when egos practice polyamory? What happens when egos seek enlightenment?
This evening also includes an experiential, non-verbal exploration of these questions. Guided interactions with all those present offer an opportunity to taste the essence of the One. Read a sample chapter of Dr Anapol's new book at www.sevenlawsoflove.com
7:45PM-9:45PM, $10-15 suggested donation
Feel free to join us for community dinner at 6:45pm! ($10)
Smashing the G8 Summit 2007 in Germany! SF INFOTOUR
March 6th, TUESDAY 8pm Station 40 3030b 16th st. (&Mission), San Francisco
Once a year the leaders of the 8 richest nations meet behind closed doors in secret with no publicized agenda or published minutes, to discuss the fate of the world. They’ve been making empty promises for decades about improving the environment, poverty in Africa, and lots more, but the fact is that the G8 is not the solution to these ills, it is the problem! We are preparing in Germany for large scale protests against the G8 meeting this June 6-8, 2007, and plan to come tell you about what is going on here. We have done over 200 presentations in 25+ countries since November 2005, and are now coming to your town!
The Infotour will include both a history of the G8 and the past resistance against the G8 in Germany. After this historical perspective, there will be a detailed presentation of plans for derailing the summit this June in Northern Germany. The evening will feature multiple videos and a slideshow presentation. You do not have to be planning to go to the G8 summit this summer to come to the infotour, if you can't make it to Germany come next tuesday to learn about the G8 and the European culture of resistance against global capitalism.

Please come by the grove, bring food to share, and meet oak lovers from many faith and religious backgrounds. Newman Hall members, among others, will be in attendance. Feel free to stay for the Salon at 2pm.
================
Sunday, March 4th, 2pm: Salon in the Grove - Special Topic: Standing Like a Tree Qigong
(Salon is held every Sunday at 2pm)
This week, we will explore topics such as Plant Spirit Medicine (an indigenous tradition), Listening to the Wisdom of the Trees, and Standing Like a Tree with a Tai Chi and Qigong exercise. We'll also hear updates on grove support needs, the status of the protest, and Native American leader Zachary Running Wolf. We will become initiated into thesis of Dr. Michael Mayer’s book and learn how Tai Chi and Qigong are initiatory traditions that stem from a long-lost lineage that includes self-healing, spiritual unfoldment, self-defense and changing your life stance through “shape shifting.” You'll learn why Standing like a Tree Qigong (zhan zhuang) has been called “the million dollar secret of qigong,” how the animal forms of Qigong can help you reactivate your primordial self, and why Yi Chuan Walking Meditation adds something vital to traditions of Walking Meditation. Sink your roots into an age-old, cross-cultural shamanic tradition, which grew from adepts who studied nature; this tradition has much to teach us today about how to adopt a grounded stance, sink our chi, and keep our hearts open during times of stress as we are protesting injustice.
Featuring Laura K. Brown, Ph.D. www.metaformia.com, David Weinstein, Dr. Michael Mayer, and Susan Park.

Meet and start at Memorial Oak Grove, 5 pm Wednesdays. Contact: canyonwalks@gmail.com and visit the blog: canyonwalks.blogspot.com/

CRAIGSLIST FOUNDATION'S NONPROFIT NIGHT
Topic: Nonprofit Capacity Building Through Skill Sharing
Facilitator: Allen Gunn, Executive Director of Aspiration
Many aspects of nonprofit operations, strategy and technology can be vexing if you don't have the right people to ask for guidance. Our next Nonprofit Night will allow participants to form small groups based on areas of need and interest, to compare challenges, share skills and experiences, and otherwise discover allies and resources. This peer-to-peer sharing model will allow each attendee to solicit input and ideas on a topic or challenge of his or her choice, drawing from the experience of other nonprofit leaders.
Networking begins at 5:30pm. Workshop begins at 6:00pm.

3/15 5pm Forest for the Trees-Judi Bari v. The FBI-Free Movie Event
GGU National Lawyers Guild presents a film screening of:
"THE FOREST FOR THE TREES"-Judi Bari vs. The FBI
A film by Bernadine Mellis
With Special Guest Speaker Bari's Attorney and this year's NLGSF Testimonial
Dinner Honoree Dennis Cunningham
Thursday, March 15th 5-6:30 p.m. Room 2203
Golden Gate University School of Law
536 Mission St., between 1st and 2nd Streets
FREE Dinner will be Provided.
This film is an intimate look at an unlikely team of young activists and old
lefties who come together to battle the U.S. government following
environmental activist Judi Bari's arrest on terrorism charges in 1990.
Judi Bari was an Earth First! leader who was one of the first to place as
much importance on the legacy and future of the trees as she did on timber
workers' lives and families. But that strategic relationship was too much of
a threat. Her car was bombed in 1990, and three hours later, she was
arrested as a terrorist--charges that were later dropped. Convinced it was a
ploy by the FBI to discredit her and Earth First!, Judi decided to sue.
Cunningham took on Judi's case and after 12 years, Judi Bari v. the FBI
finally gets a court date. Knowing this is one of her father's most
important cases, Mellis is there at strategy meetings, at breakfast, driving
to and from the court, documenting her morally driven, very tired dad. Not
your typical Take your daughter to work day, THE FOREST FOR THE TREES
offers access to a piece of U.S. history that everyday grows increasingly
resonant.
Q&A and Reception with Dennis Cunningham to follow.
Co-Sponsored by the GGU Environmental Law Society.

How is your asking going? Are you receiving as many "Yes's" as you would like?
Do you have a compelling vision you keep to yourself yet yearn to express?
Are you daunted by some of the challenges that you face as you pursue your goals?
The Freedom to Ask & The Art of Asking was well received last month. People report that they are enjoying practicing the distinctions, asking more frequently and receiving more "Yes's"!

April 7 - Burning Man Town Hall (actual name of event may be changing) burningman.com
BunnyJam07 is coming up, Saturday April 7th.
It's going to be at the Porn Palace space in SF (mission, near the metreon parking garage).
Great space, that looks really nice inside. Castle Room, Barnyard, Retro Bar Room, Jail Room, and more.
The theme is going to be: "The Hare-Itics Ball : Ye Ole Bunny Jamme" Hop with it.
We really need some fresh bunny art so it's not just the same stuff recycled from last year.
We have alot of small (as in up to 5x5 feet) spaces spread around the venue that we'd love to fill with bunny art. This is where you come in to play. Do you have an idea for an art installation, interactive art piece, performance art piece, or anything really, that you would like to bring to bunny jam?
If so, send me a message or email me at sfaaron26@yahoo.com
We also need general volunteers for set up and running the party, but that doesn't take as much advanced planning.
Thu April 12, 7:30–9 p.m. Nancy DeStefanis, Executive Director of San Francisco Nature Education, will lecture and screen the short films Above the Nests, directed by Nancy DeStefanis, and Heron Island, directed by Judy Irving (Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill). Nancy will also present a brief slide show of highlights of the 2006 great blue heron colony.
Sponsored by the San Francisco Naturalist Society, the films will be shown on Thursday, April 12, 7:30–9 p.m. at the Randall Museum Theater, Randall Museum, 199 Museum Way, San Francisco. For more information see the Calendar of Events on our website www.sfnature.org

save earth by eating low on food chain
www.indybay.org/newsitems/...8370893.php
Eating animals necessarily means
indirectly eating many, many more plants than one would require if
one ate plants directly instead. Thus, even if one values plants
equally with animals, it makes much more sense to eat the plants
directly. If we are to live at all, ultimately plants must be eatedn
In any case, environmentally, it is tremendously less damaging to
maintain a plant-centered diet rather than a meat based one.
Eating low on food chain kills less plants.
If you eat meat, ten times as many plants are killed to feed livestock.
Feeding plants to livestock wastes calories on heat, bone, skin, hair, things you don't eat.
It takes ten pounds of protein from grain to get one pound of protein from meat.
So you can feed ten vegetarians with the amount of grain it takes to feed one meat eater.

Female Genital Massage to Access Erotic Trance States Thu Mar 1, 7:00 PM
A class and demonstration with Joseph Kramer, Ph.D.
Join us for a class on female genital massage with live demonstrations, offered by Certified Sexological Bodyworkers. The class will begin with breath exercises and erotic touch basics . You will then witness three simultaneous genital massage demonstrations by trained somatic sex educators. The Sexological Bodyworkers, both male and female, will be using conscious genital touch and breath work to guide the women receiving into profound erotic trance states. After the erotic touch sessions, you will have a chance to ask the practitioners and the recipients about their techniques and experiences. This erotic massage assists women to awaken full pelvic awareness, a powerful learning for those with pelvic sensory-motor amnesia or "the genital hole."
Our intention is that you be inspired to learn this erotic massage to pleasure yourself and your lovers. All participants will receive a copy of the instructional DVD Fire in the Valley: Female Genital Massage. This DVD is part of the certification curriculum for Sexological Bodyworkers at The Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality.
Joseph Kramer, Ph.D. has been the world's leading teacher of erotic massage since 1984. He founded The Body Electric School and The New School of Erotic Touch to explore what is erotically possible through touch and breath. He now trains sexologists and bodyworkers from around the world in Sexological Bodywork, a California-approved, certified profession of body-based sex education. Join us to learn more about this new profession and witness a range of women's ecstatic states.
Tuition: $40 (includes instructional DVD)
Female Erotic Massage: March 1, 7-10 pm

Presented by the Sierra Club of Northern Alameda County
American Energy Systems Corporation, a massive, global power company. purchased the privitized electricity distribution company in Tbilisi, capital of the former Soviet Republic of Georgia. The manager of the giant energy corporation must now train the formerly communist populace to pay for their electricity -- now that they have become customers of electricity. Amidst hot tempers and high drama, the manager balances his love for the Georgian people with the hardships that the company creates for them as they struggle to build a nation from the rubble of Soviet collapse. This captivating documentary tells the story of the chaotic post-Soviet transition of Georgia as it negotiates its way through corruption, assissinations, riots, clashes, and electrical disconnections and blackouts.

Save the Date for Solstinox - March 3, 2007
Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…
I can’t wait to dance with your playa souls again when the planets align. Sunshine
PS: More to come when it comes.

FREE FILMS March 3-4 OTHER FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS
www.marketwire.com/mw/release_html_b1
A Tribute to Humphrey Jennings (1907-1950)
Saturday, March 3 at Noon at the de Young Museum's Koret Auditorium
Author David Thomson ("Dictionary of Film") introduces three documentaries by one of the most important figures in the celebrated British Documentary film movement, Humphrey Jennings. Jennings' films show the concerns and conditions of the United Kingdom during World War II. Three films are presented on March 3, including "Listen to Britain," "A Diary for Timothy" and "Fires Were Started (a.k.a. I Was a Fireman)." As a filmmaker, Jennings captured the thoughts and experiences of regular British citizens during wartime and often showed ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
In "Listen to Britain," Jennings edits and assembles everyday images of English life during World War II. The film allows the sounds of daily wartime life to narrate the story in this innovative and poetic documentary from 1942. In "A Diary for Timothy" (1944), baby Timothy James Jenkins is born on September 3, 1944, nearly at the end of the war. The film examines the child's future and the future of England post-World War II. In Jennings' 1943 film, "Fires Were Started (a.k.a. I Was A Fireman)," he follows eight firemen in Britain's Auxiliary Fire Service during a 24-hour period during the blitz in London. The only feature length film that Jennings ever made, "Fires Were Started" shows the men fighting a blaze threatening to destroy an ammunition ship at anchor by the wharf. The film blurs the lines between fiction and documentary and uses groundbreaking montage techniques.
900-Day Siege of Leningrad Documented in "Blockade" (2005) by Sergei Loznitsa
Saturday, March 3 at 3:45 p.m. at the de Young Museum's Koret Auditorium
The siege of Leningrad was the longest of World War II, spanning 900 days from September 1941 to January 1944. When Hitler barricaded access to the Soviet city of three million people, estimates of the number of residents who died from starvation, disease or cold range from 641,000 to 800,000. Comprised solely of rarely seen footage found in Soviet film archives by director Sergei Loznitsa, "Blockade" (2005) vividly re-creates those momentous events, featuring a meticulously reconstructed soundtrack added to the original black-and-white footage.
Bertrand Tavernier's "The Undeclared War" Explores the 1954-1962 Algerian War for the First Time
Sunday, March 4 at Noon at the de Young Museum's Koret Auditorium
Nearly three million French combatants were involved in the 1954-1962 Algerian War, which was never officially declared a war by the French government. Thirty years later, director Bertrand Tavernier pieced together "The Undeclared War" (1992) out of 50 hours of footage shot in Grenoble, France, the venue of one of the two largest anti-war riots in the 1950's. The film focuses on the testimonies of 28 veterans and their wives, some speaking about their memories for the very first time, to convey the war's devastating impact.
"Iraq in Fragments" Nominated for 2006 Academy Award Documentary
Sunday, March 4 at 5:00 p.m. at the de Young Museum's Koret Auditorium
In 2003 after the U.S.-led invasion, Seattle filmmaker James Longley, sneaked across the Iraq border from Egypt without a visa or proper permission. Over the next two years, Longley filmed over 300 hours of material to create the documentary, "Iraq in Fragments," exploring the lives of ordinary Iraqis. The three-part film focuses on one story for each major ethnic group in Iraq, showing the war-torn country as seen through the eyes of Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds. Winner of Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Editing awards in the 2006 Sundance Film Festival documentary competition and winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the 2006 Full Frame Documentary Film Festival, the film was recently nominated for a 2006 Academy Award for Documentary Film.
ABOUT "WITNESS TO WAR" FILM FESTIVAL
Presented by the DOC Film Institute, a project of the International Center for the Arts at San Francisco State University, "Witness to War: Documentary Perspectives: World War II to Iraq" honors the legacy of documentaries on war, tracing a period from World War II to the present day Iraq War.

Smashing the G8 Summit 2007 in Germany! SF INFOTOUR
March 6th, TUESDAY 8pm Station 40 3030b 16th st. (&Mission), San Francisco
Once a year the leaders of the 8 richest nations meet behind closed doors in secret with no publicized agenda or published minutes, to discuss the fate of the world. They’ve been making empty promises for decades about improving the environment, poverty in Africa, and lots more, but the fact is that the G8 is not the solution to these ills, it is the problem! We are preparing in Germany for large scale protests against the G8 meeting this June 6-8, 2007, and plan to come tell you about what is going on here. We have done over 200 presentations in 25+ countries since November 2005, and are now coming to your town!
The Infotour will include both a history of the G8 and the past resistance against the G8 in Germany. After this historical perspective, there will be a detailed presentation of plans for derailing the summit this June in Northern Germany. The evening will feature multiple videos and a slideshow presentation. You do not have to be planning to go to the G8 summit this summer to come to the infotour, if you can't make it to Germany come next tuesday to learn about the G8 and the European culture of resistance against global capitalism.

BunnyJam07 is coming up, Saturday April 7th.
It's going to be at the Porn Palace space in SF (mission, near the metreon parking garage).
Great space, that looks really nice inside. Castle Room, Barnyard, Retro Bar Room, Jail Room, and more.
The theme is going to be: "The Hare-Itics Ball : Ye Ole Bunny Jamme" Hop with it.
We really need some fresh bunny art so it's not just the same stuff recycled from last year.
We have alot of small (as in up to 5x5 feet) spaces spread around the venue that we'd love to fill with bunny art. This is where you come in to play. Do you have an idea for an art installation, interactive art piece, performance art piece, or anything really, that you would like to bring to bunny jam?
If so, send me a message or email me at sfaaron26@yahoo.com
We also need general volunteers for set up and running the party, but that doesn't take as much advanced planning.

Save the Date for Solstinox - March 3, 2007
Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…
I can’t wait to dance with your playa souls again when the planets align. Sunshine
PS: More to come when it comes.

Smashing the G8 Summit 2007 in Germany! SF INFOTOUR
March 6th, TUESDAY 8pm Station 40 3030b 16th st. (&Mission), San Francisco
Once a year the leaders of the 8 richest nations meet behind closed doors in secret with no publicized agenda or published minutes, to discuss the fate of the world. They’ve been making empty promises for decades about improving the environment, poverty in Africa, and lots more, but the fact is that the G8 is not the solution to these ills, it is the problem! We are preparing in Germany for large scale protests against the G8 meeting this June 6-8, 2007, and plan to come tell you about what is going on here. We have done over 200 presentations in 25+ countries since November 2005, and are now coming to your town!
The Infotour will include both a history of the G8 and the past resistance against the G8 in Germany. After this historical perspective, there will be a detailed presentation of plans for derailing the summit this June in Northern Germany. The evening will feature multiple videos and a slideshow presentation. You do not have to be planning to go to the G8 summit this summer to come to the infotour, if you can't make it to Germany come next tuesday to learn about the G8 and the European culture of resistance against global capitalism.

Do you have a compelling vision you keep to yourself yet yearn to express?
Are you daunted by some of the challenges that you face as you pursue your goals?
The Freedom to Ask & The Art of Asking was well received last month. People report that they are enjoying practicing the distinctions, asking more frequently and receiving more "Yes's"!

BunnyJam07 is coming up, Saturday April 7th.
It's going to be at the Porn Palace space in SF (mission, near the metreon parking garage).
Great space, that looks really nice inside. Castle Room, Barnyard, Retro Bar Room, Jail Room, and more.
The theme is going to be: "The Hare-Itics Ball : Ye Ole Bunny Jamme" Hop with it.
We really need some fresh bunny art so it's not just the same stuff recycled from last year.
We have alot of small (as in up to 5x5 feet) spaces spread around the venue that we'd love to fill with bunny art. This is where you come in to play. Do you have an idea for an art installation, interactive art piece, performance art piece, or anything really, that you would like to bring to bunny jam?
If so, send me a message or email me at sfaaron26@yahoo.com
We also need general volunteers for set up and running the party, but that doesn't take as much advanced planning.

Fourth Annual Masked Mardi Gras Party at Town Hall Tuesday, February 20,
Town Hall 342 Howard St, SF CA www.townhallsf.com/
For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.TheAList.org
Guests are encouraged to don masquerade masks for this New Orleans' style party. A percentage of proceeds from the evening will go to a fund for Town Hall’s own Hector Sahagun, a bartender who was in a tragic head on taxicab collision on January 4, 2007 after leaving work.
The evening will be a raucous, roving feast, encouraging guests to roam about the restaurant to sample traditional New Orleans’ style foods prepared by Executive Chef/Owners Mitchell and Steven Rosenthal:
• a shellfish boil strewn over newspaper covered tables;
• a raw bar with oysters, crab and shrimp;
• a gumbo and jambalaya station;
• fried chicken;
• jalapeño corn bread;
• beer, wine and Pat O’Brien’s style Hurricanes, a cocktail synonymous with Mardi Gras.
Beads and doubloons will festoon the restaurant, and the feet tapping sounds of a New Orleans Dixie band will play throughout the night.
PURCHASE TICKETS at: www.TheAList.org
$65 per person.
TheAList.org has a limited number of tickets available for $57.99.
For more information, visit www.TheAList.org or contact info@TheAList.org

CAROL QUEEN SPEAKS AT ONETASTE
Words that Talk to the Clit and the Cock: Erotic Writing and Why it Matters
Sex writing can be sublime, thought-provoking, raunchy, or ridiculous. It can feed stereotypes or bust them; it can be a power for sex-positive growth, a visceral way to connect your head with your body, a way to jump-start fantasy or a way to escape your own identity completely. Noted erotic author and memoirist Carol Queen will share her perspectives on written porn and erotic literature, and will include plenty of snippets of her work by way of example, and maybe inspiration.
Location: One Taste, 1074 Folsom Street (Cross Street: 7th) in San Francisco
Tuesday, 2/20, 7:45--9:45, $10-15 requested but no one will be turned away for lack of $.

Abundance League 2/22, 6pm
Dear Abundance Leaguers,
Our monthly meeting is next Thursday, February 22nd at 6pm. You're
invited! Note: meetings are the third Thursday every month except
December when we'll take a break.
FEATURED PRESENTER:
In addition to regular announcements by members, we are delighted that
Matthew Blom will
give an abbreviated version of his class, The Art of Authentic
Communication. This class
and discussion are designed to help folks shift to greater
understanding, collaboration, and
fulfillment in their relationships through authentic communication.
Matthew first came to The Abundance League over a year ago when
embarking on a new
career in facilitation, mediation, and nonviolent communication. It's
obvious he has pursued
his passion with gusto since then having completed a year long
training at the Bay Area
Nonviolent Communication leadership program and facilitated groups of
up to 300 people in Open Space Technology, including The National
Conference for Dialogue and Deliberation and the US Project Speaking
Peace conference.
If you've ever met Matthew, you know that he radiates calm in a way
that sets the stage for positive transformation. His class promises
to be great learning experience that can help bring more of what
matters into our lives. You can learn more about his class and
register
for the full length version of it here: www.uas.coop/node/369
We hope to see you next Thursday!
Abundantly yours,
Neal White Arrow & Maritza

discovery channel airs program on CHEMTRAILS Th Feb 22 9pm ET/PT
The new time for the Discovery Channel's BEST EVIDENCE presentation of the program "Chemical Contrails" is now Thursday, February 22, 2007, at 9:00 p.m. They will show it again early Friday morning, February 23, at 1:00 a.m.
If they are allowed to show it (It was supposed to have been shown on Feb. 8, but never happened), this will be the first time the chemtrail issue has been addressed on mainstream TV. I understand that the program does have some substance. Would you share this information with your readers.
Heads Up everyone, (FYI)
Chemtrail Spraying investigation about to air on the Discovery Channel.
Watch the Discovery Channel program "Chemical Contrails", Feb. 8, 2007
Check your local listing for time of airing.
I have been told by sources close to the making of this film that it
will not be the usual blasé put down of the Chemtrail Spraying issue but
a fair look at the subject without any preconceived bias.
Quote: the Best Evidence combines dramatic documentary storytelling with
today's technology and advances in science to unravel and test both
long-held and recent mysteries. We go to any limits — using science
rather than loose conjecture — to make definitive points leading us to
the very Best Evidence. Get a preview of the upcoming episodes.
dsc.discovery.com/fansites/...isode.html
Episode 3: Chemical Contrails
Across the planet, millions of people have seen them — jet aircraft
vapor trails lingering in the sky. Are these just regular "contrails" —
the carbon and water vapor exhaust from commercial planes — or are they
potentially toxic "chemical trails" emitted intentionally as part of
secret geo-engineering experiments or weather-weaponization tests?
Experts and passionate observers on both sides present their best
evidence — from video and photographs, satellite imagery, soil samples
and military evidence. We shed light on a subject that has many people
looking up for answers to disturbing questions. A team of technicians at
an independent laboratory will examine the samples to finally get to the
heart of the question: What is in those fuel emissions and what causes
them to linger for hours and link up with one another like a ghostly
blanket that seems to affect the weather and perhaps our health?

We are teaming up to bring you only the best in funky, floorshaking underground house music to keep you grooving until the break of dawn.

DJ's:
DJ Miles Maeda (Ouvre, Aroma, Apt Entertainment)--Los Angeles/Chicago
Miles Maeda was one of the pioneering members of Chicago's scene in the early '90s, putting out a slew of now legendary mixtapes that inspired many a young aspiring dj. Miles has since grown to be a favorite dj of many, known for his precise mixing skills and poised presence behind the decks. Sharing a residency at Chicago's Smartbar alongside Justin Long and DJ Heather, travelling the world to share his music with everyone, and consistently putting out top notch tracks keeps Miles very busy. We are very excited to have him out for our 2nd Tonal party and can't wait to hear him lay it down! www.milesmaeda.com
Brown (Drop Music, Aroma, Mobile Trax)--Nottingham, UK
Nottingham based vocalist and producer, Brown is one of the key players in the new UK sound which has had a huge impact on the record bags of our favorite dj's. Featured in collaborations with Littlemen, Inland Knights, Da Sunlounge, Andrew Phelan & Origami, and Bryan Jones, Brown has put tracks out on many a hot label such as Drop, Mobile Trax, Aroma, Myna, Prismatic, and many more. Brown's debut SF appearance at Crush-o-matic last summer had everybody grooving, and we are happy to welcome him back for Round Two for another dj set featuring himself on live vocals. www.myspace.com/brownrecordings
Andrew Phelan and Origami (Prismatic, Drop Music, So Sound)
One of SF's fastest growing duos in both the DJ and production realms, Andrew and Origami put down some serious business. The boys tore it up at Electric Blue and will surely do so again this time. A Chicago native, Mr. Phelan brings the funk just how we like it with Origami backing him up on live bass keeping the speakers booming and your bodies moving! www.djandrewphelan.com
Eric Sharp (Rock It Science)
Founder of the Rock It Science crew, Eric Sharp has quickly built a name for himself with his infectious energy behind the decks and the versatility to rock any party. Eric's opening set at Electric Blue got everybody going just right. This time Eric will throw down a Fire Engine Red closing set, leaving everybody begging for more and heading for the Endup. www.myspace.com/ericsharp
Rob Crush (Crush Collective)
Buckle up San Francisco! Rob Crush seems to be everywhere at once, spreading the good word about some of our city's favorite parties. What you may not know about Rob is that he has secretly been honing his craft, mixing records deep within the bowels of a dj research laboratory covered by a biotechnology front. You are going to wonder why you haven't heard from Rob sooner, and we look forward to seeing him get a lot more action on the decks! www.myspace.com/robcrush

HELP SAVE THE BEAUTIFUL AND HISTORIC UC BERKELEY
EXTENSION CAMPUS AT 55 LAGUNA STREET SF FROM THE WRECKING BALL
Free film screening and public forum on February 24 at SF Public
Library Koret Auditorium. 55 Grove St @ Market / 8th / Hyde / Larkin
Eliza Heminway's documentary film "Closing the Books" and a public
forum
will be held February 24th for to help save the 5.8
acre historic UC Berkeley Extension campus from the wrecking ball and
make sure this historic treasure paid for with our tax dollars remains
in public use. UC Regents have engaged a private developer, AF
Evans, to
convert this historic site into high density
condo and retail space in the name of profit. Their proposal is
currently under review by the SF Planning Department. UC Regents are
seeking to rezone the campus, which if approved, will permanently end
its 150 year history of public use. A public hearing is scheduled for
March 8th at the San Francisco Planning Commission; it is the only
public process planned
regarding the re-zoning of the campus. Film Screening and Public
Forum
to be held:
WHEN: Saturday, February 24, 4:15 - 5:30 PM, Free
WHERE: The San Francisco Public Library, 100 Larkin St. (at Grove),
Koret Auditorium, located on the library's lower level. Enter at 30
Grove St. and proceed down stairs. Special needs parking is
available on
Larkin
and Fulton Streets.
NOTE: This program is sponsored by the Friends of 1800, Save the UCBE
Laguna Street Campus and Trinity Productions, and is not a San
Francisco Library Sponsored program. Contact (415) 563-7336 for
additional information.
The program will begin with a screening of Eliza Hemenway's new
documentary UNCOMMON KNOWLEDGE: Closing the Books at UC Berkeley
Extension, a poetic journey inside UC Berkeley Extension as plans
unfold to close its historic San Francisco campus and convert it into
a lucrative private development. Filmmaker Eliza Hemenway worked at
the campus for over six years. Wondering why UC Regents were closing a
campus with a 150 year history of public use, she picked up her camera
and began to film. The result is a revealing look into higher
education and culture, as well as a hauntingly beautiful portrait of a
campus and the community it served. Accompanied by an edgy urban
soundtrack written and performed by locally acclaimed musician Tim
Barsky and Everyday Theatre with additional music by The Toids.
The film screening will be followed by a brief Q&A with the filmmaker
and a public forum.
PUBLIC FORUM:
A panel will present information on the historic and planning issues
related to the reuse of the Campus. The panel will include: Charles
Chase, AIA, Executive Director, San Francisco Architectural Heritage;
Mark Paez, Urban Planner and Co-Chair, Friends of 1800; Warren Dewar,
Attorney and Board Member, Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association
(HVNA); and Tamara Colby, Urban Planner and Co-Chair, Save the UCBE
Laguna Street Campus.
A Public Hearing on the Draft EIR will be held Thursday, March 8, 2007
in Room 400, City Hall. Call 558-6422 the week of the hearing for a
recorded message for the exact time of hearing. A request has been
made to hold the hearing at 6:00 PM. Again, this is the only public
process planned regarding the re-zoning of the campus.
Save the UCBE Laguna Street Campus was founded to establish a Citizens
Advisory Committee to determine the highest and best use of the campus
and to promote the preservation of its historic and public resources.
The group has drafted a petition calling for the Board of Supervisors
to establish a Citizens Advisory Committee. See:
www.petitiononline.com/UCBEsi...on.html and
groups.yahoo.com/group/Sav..._St_Campus

Legacy of Torture:
The War Against The Black Liberation Movement
The same people who tried to kill me in 1973 are the same people who are here today, trying to destroy me. I mean it literally. I mean there were people from the forces of the San Francisco Police Department who participated in harassment, torture and my interrogation in 1973 ... none of these people have ever been brought to trial. None of these people have ever been charged with anything. None of these people have ever been questioned about that. -- John Bowman, former Black Panther
In 2005 several former members of the Black Panther were held in contempt and jailed for refusing to testify before a San Francisco Grand Jury investigating a police shooting that took place in 1971. The government alleged that Black radical groups were involved in the 34-year old case in which two men armed with shotguns attacked the Ingleside Police Station resulting in the death of a police sergeant and the injuring of a civilian clerk.
In 1973, thirteen alleged "Black militants" were arrested in New Orleans, purportedly in connection with the San Francisco events. Some of them were tortured for several days by law enforcement authorities, in striking similarity to the horrors visited upon detainees in Guantánamo and Abu Ghraib.
In 1975, a Federal Court in San Francisco threw out all of the evidence obtained in New Orleans.
The two lead San Francisco Police Department investigators from over 30 years ago, along with FBI agents, have re-opened the case. Rather than submit to proceedings they felt were abusive of the law and the Constitution, five men chose to stand in contempt of court and were sent to jail. They were released when the Grand Jury term expired, but have been told by prosecutors that "it isn't over yet."

Save the Date for Solstinox - March 3, 2007
Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…
I can’t wait to dance with your playa souls again when the planets align. Sunshine

Do you have a compelling vision you keep to yourself yet yearn to express?
Are you daunted by some of the challenges that you face as you pursue your goals?

BunnyJam07 is coming up, Saturday April 7th.
It's going to be at the Porn Palace space in SF (mission, near the metreon parking garage).
Great space, that looks really nice inside. Castle Room, Barnyard, Retro Bar Room, Jail Room, and more.
The theme is going to be: "The Hare-Itics Ball : Ye Ole Bunny Jamme" Hop with it.
We really need some fresh bunny art so it's not just the same stuff recycled from last year.
We have alot of small (as in up to 5x5 feet) spaces spread around the venue that we'd love to fill with bunny art. This is where you come in to play. Do you have an idea for an art installation, interactive art piece, performance art piece, or anything really, that you would like to bring to bunny jam?
If so, send me a message or email me at sfaaron26@yahoo.com
We also need general volunteers for set up and running the party, but that doesn't take as much advanced planning.

"Utopia is on the horizon; I walk two steps, it takes two steps
back. I walk ten steps, and it is ten steps further away. What is
Utopia for? It is for this, for walking."
~Eduardo Galeano, Uruguayan journalist
It is only when we remind ourselves that it is
the journey and not the destination that makes
the trip worthwhile that we stop asking
"Are we there yet?" And start exclaiming,
"Wow! What an incredible
journey this is turning out
to be!"
May you never miss the beautiful scenery
along your own personal path to Utopia.

Vigil for animals on the 15th, as the Year of the Dog ends...UCSF sued again
Dear Animal Advocates, Companions, Lovers, Liberators and Vigilers!
The next vigil on behalf of animals incarcerated and exploited in laboratory experiments at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) will be held on the third Thursday of the month (as usual) - February 15, 4:30 PM (till about 6 PM). This will be the last vigil of the Year of the Dog (Chinese Calendar); the Year of the Boar (or Pig) begins on February 18.
The vigil will be held at UCSF's Parnassus Campus at 513 Parnassus Avenue in San Francisco. (Please see information on public transportation to UCSF below.)
UCSF sued again: Once again I have sued UCSF because of the university's delinquency in answering several records requests I had made pursuant to the California Public Records Act. Corey Evans, attorney at law, filed suit on my behalf just today, Friday, February 9, 2007. On the one hand, I feel lucky that I have acquired the services of Mr. Evans, a gentleman (in the truest sense of the word) and successful lawyer. Yet on the other hand, it is a shame that I have had to go to such ends to acquire information that I am entitled to by law. In any case, we will be attempting to acquire a variety of UCSF documents, including information on research that UCSF has contracted with the US Department of Defense to conduct, research protocols involving dogs at the university, medical records for dogs used in a cardiology research project, and UCSF's Annual Report of Research Facility for 2006. Corey Evans feels we have a good case, and success is likely; thus we may have these important documents by early spring. Time will tell.
Note Regarding Public Transportation: If you would like to take public transportation to UCSF, the San Francisco Muni buses #6 and #43 both go right by the vigil's venue on Parnassus Avenue; also you can take the N-Judah streetcar, get off at Carl & Arguello streets, and take the elevator (going up) within the UCSF facility to get to Parnassus Avenue. If you are coming from the East Bay, you can take BART, get off at any stop between Embarcadero and Civic Center in San Francisco, and then take an N-Judah streetcar going outbound (and follow directions above regarding N-Judah streetcar).
And please remember to be kind to yourself, as well as other animals. Hope to see you at the vigil - take care!

Alex Wilson, Executive Editor of Environmental Building News, will discuss the concept of passive survivability--a building's ability to maintain critical life-support conditions if services such as power, heating fuel, or water are lost--and why it should become a standard design criterion for houses, apartment buildings, schools, and certain other building types.

Dear Friends of the Environment and Dance!
Now here is a great reason to get together next week:
An evening of excellent music (live and DJ'd) great food and great community (to rally around a great cause): All on the occasion of an auspicious birthday!
Julia Butterfly Hill’s birthday bash fundraiser for Circle of Life:
Lydia’s Organics, Groove Garden and three great local acts have banded together to throw a fundraiser for what we believe to be very worthy cause – especially in this time of heightened environmental awareness. That cause is Circle of Life:
Based in Oakland, Circle of Life was founded to promote the sustainability, restoration and preservation of life. It is a stand for peace, justice and environmental sustainability; and in that space, it creates powerful events and meaningful opportunities for people and organizations to make a difference in the world we share.
All talent involved, bands and artists alike, are donating time and creativity to Circle of life. Lydia's Organics has underwritten the entire cost of the event. Circle of Life will receive 100% of the door!!
So in the spirit of The Groove Garden come join us for an outstandingly good time - - and we'll see you on the dancefloor!
The evening commences with a community dinner featuring the excellent culinary forays of food pioneer and respected chef, Lydia Kindheart

Copwatch will hold a meeting on Monday, February 19th at 8pm in the Grassroots House, 2022 Blake St. in Berkeley.
On February 9th, an Alameda County judge ruling against the City of Berkeley's Police Review Commission essentially banned open hearings about police officers and blocked public access to records of police misconduct. Berkeley Copwatch says, "The community must come together and take action against this blow to public safety and police accountability!"

Fourth Annual Masked Mardi Gras Party at Town Hall Tuesday, February 20,
Town Hall 342 Howard St, SF CA www.townhallsf.com/
For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www.TheAList.org
Guests are encouraged to don masquerade masks for this New Orleans' style party. A percentage of proceeds from the evening will go to a fund for Town Hall’s own Hector Sahagun, a bartender who was in a tragic head on taxicab collision on January 4, 2007 after leaving work.
The evening will be a raucous, roving feast, encouraging guests to roam about the restaurant to sample traditional New Orleans’ style foods prepared by Executive Chef/Owners Mitchell and Steven Rosenthal:
• a shellfish boil strewn over newspaper covered tables;
• a raw bar with oysters, crab and shrimp;
• a gumbo and jambalaya station;
• fried chicken;
• jalapeño corn bread;
• beer, wine and Pat O’Brien’s style Hurricanes, a cocktail synonymous with Mardi Gras.
Beads and doubloons will festoon the restaurant, and the feet tapping sounds of a New Orleans Dixie band will play throughout the night.
PURCHASE TICKETS at: www.TheAList.org
$65 per person.
TheAList.org has a limited number of tickets available for $57.99.

CAROL QUEEN SPEAKS AT ONETASTE
Words that Talk to the Clit and the Cock: Erotic Writing and Why it Matters
Sex writing can be sublime, thought-provoking, raunchy, or ridiculous. It can feed stereotypes or bust them; it can be a power for sex-positive growth, a visceral way to connect your head with your body, a way to jump-start fantasy or a way to escape your own identity completely. Noted erotic author and memoirist Carol Queen will share her perspectives on written porn and erotic literature, and will include plenty of snippets of her work by way of example, and maybe inspiration.
Location: One Taste, 1074 Folsom Street (Cross Street: 7th) in San Francisco

discovery channel airs program on CHEMTRAILS Th Feb 22 9pm ET/PT
The new time for the Discovery Channel's BEST EVIDENCE presentation of the program "Chemical Contrails" is now Thursday, February 22, 2007, at 9:00 p.m. They will show it again early Friday morning, February 23, at 1:00 a.m.
If they are allowed to show it (It was supposed to have been shown on Feb. 8, but never happened), this will be the first time the chemtrail issue has been addressed on mainstream TV. I understand that the program does have some substance. Would you share this information with your readers.
Heads Up everyone, (FYI)
Chemtrail Spraying investigation about to air on the Discovery Channel.
Watch the Discovery Channel program "Chemical Contrails", Feb. 8, 2007
Check your local listing for time of airing.
I have been told by sources close to the making of this film that it
will not be the usual blasé put down of the Chemtrail Spraying issue but
a fair look at the subject without any preconceived bias.
Quote: the Best Evidence combines dramatic documentary storytelling with
today's technology and advances in science to unravel and test both
long-held and recent mysteries. We go to any limits — using science
rather than loose conjecture — to make definitive points leading us to
the very Best Evidence. Get a preview of the upcoming episodes.
dsc.discovery.com/fansites/...isode.html
Episode 3: Chemical Contrails
Across the planet, millions of people have seen them — jet aircraft
vapor trails lingering in the sky. Are these just regular "contrails" —
the carbon and water vapor exhaust from commercial planes — or are they
potentially toxic "chemical trails" emitted intentionally as part of
secret geo-engineering experiments or weather-weaponization tests?
Experts and passionate observers on both sides present their best
evidence — from video and photographs, satellite imagery, soil samples
and military evidence. We shed light on a subject that has many people
looking up for answers to disturbing questions. A team of technicians at
an independent laboratory will examine the samples to finally get to the
heart of the question: What is in those fuel emissions and what causes
them to linger for hours and link up with one another like a ghostly
blanket that seems to affect the weather and perhaps our health?

HELP SAVE THE BEAUTIFUL AND HISTORIC UC BERKELEY
EXTENSION CAMPUS AT 55 LAGUNA STREET SF FROM THE WRECKING BALL
Free film screening and public forum on February 24 at SF Public
Library Koret Auditorium. 55 Grove St @ Market / 8th / Hyde / Larkin
Eliza Heminway's documentary film "Closing the Books" and a public
forum
will be held February 24th for to help save the 5.8
acre historic UC Berkeley Extension campus from the wrecking ball and
make sure this historic treasure paid for with our tax dollars remains
in public use. UC Regents have engaged a private developer, AF
Evans, to
convert this historic site into high density
condo and retail space in the name of profit. Their proposal is
currently under review by the SF Planning Department. UC Regents are
seeking to rezone the campus, which if approved, will permanently end
its 150 year history of public use. A public hearing is scheduled for
March 8th at the San Francisco Planning Commission; it is the only
public process planned
regarding the re-zoning of the campus. Film Screening and Public
Forum
to be held:
WHEN: Saturday, February 24, 4:15 - 5:30 PM, Free
WHERE: The San Francisco Public Library, 100 Larkin St. (at Grove),
Koret Auditorium, located on the library's lower level. Enter at 30
Grove St. and proceed down stairs. Special needs parking is
available on
Larkin
and Fulton Streets.
NOTE: This program is sponsored by the Friends of 1800, Save the UCBE
Laguna Street Campus and Trinity Productions, and is not a San
Francisco Library Sponsored program. Contact (415) 563-7336 for
additional information.
The program will begin with a screening of Eliza Hemenway's new
documentary UNCOMMON KNOWLEDGE: Closing the Books at UC Berkeley
Extension, a poetic journey inside UC Berkeley Extension as plans
unfold to close its historic San Francisco campus and convert it into
a lucrative private development. Filmmaker Eliza Hemenway worked at
the campus for over six years. Wondering why UC Regents were closing a
campus with a 150 year history of public use, she picked up her camera
and began to film. The result is a revealing look into higher
education and culture, as well as a hauntingly beautiful portrait of a
campus and the community it served. Accompanied by an edgy urban
soundtrack written and performed by locally acclaimed musician Tim
Barsky and Everyday Theatre with additional music by The Toids.
The film screening will be followed by a brief Q&A with the filmmaker
and a public forum.
PUBLIC FORUM:
A panel will present information on the historic and planning issues
related to the reuse of the Campus. The panel will include: Charles
Chase, AIA, Executive Director, San Francisco Architectural Heritage;
Mark Paez, Urban Planner and Co-Chair, Friends of 1800; Warren Dewar,
Attorney and Board Member, Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association
(HVNA); and Tamara Colby, Urban Planner and Co-Chair, Save the UCBE
Laguna Street Campus.
A Public Hearing on the Draft EIR will be held Thursday, March 8, 2007
in Room 400, City Hall. Call 558-6422 the week of the hearing for a
recorded message for the exact time of hearing. A request has been
made to hold the hearing at 6:00 PM. Again, this is the only public
process planned regarding the re-zoning of the campus.
Save the UCBE Laguna Street Campus was founded to establish a Citizens
Advisory Committee to determine the highest and best use of the campus
and to promote the preservation of its historic and public resources.
The group has drafted a petition calling for the Board of Supervisors
to establish a Citizens Advisory Committee. See:
www.petitiononline.com/UCBEsi...on.html and

Legacy of Torture:
The War Against The Black Liberation Movement
The same people who tried to kill me in 1973 are the same people who are here today, trying to destroy me. I mean it literally. I mean there were people from the forces of the San Francisco Police Department who participated in harassment, torture and my interrogation in 1973 ... none of these people have ever been brought to trial. None of these people have ever been charged with anything. None of these people have ever been questioned about that. -- John Bowman, former Black Panther
In 2005 several former members of the Black Panther were held in contempt and jailed for refusing to testify before a San Francisco Grand Jury investigating a police shooting that took place in 1971. The government alleged that Black radical groups were involved in the 34-year old case in which two men armed with shotguns attacked the Ingleside Police Station resulting in the death of a police sergeant and the injuring of a civilian clerk.
In 1973, thirteen alleged "Black militants" were arrested in New Orleans, purportedly in connection with the San Francisco events. Some of them were tortured for several days by law enforcement authorities, in striking similarity to the horrors visited upon detainees in Guantánamo and Abu Ghraib.
In 1975, a Federal Court in San Francisco threw out all of the evidence obtained in New Orleans.
The two lead San Francisco Police Department investigators from over 30 years ago, along with FBI agents, have re-opened the case. Rather than submit to proceedings they felt were abusive of the law and the Constitution, five men chose to stand in contempt of court and were sent to jail. They were released when the Grand Jury term expired, but have been told by prosecutors that "it isn't over yet."

Save the Date for Solstinox - March 3, 2007
Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…

Do you have a compelling vision you keep to yourself yet yearn to express?
Are you daunted by some of the challenges that you face as you pursue your goals?

BunnyJam07 is coming up, Saturday April 7th.
It's going to be at the Porn Palace space in SF (mission, near the metreon parking garage).
Great space, that looks really nice inside. Castle Room, Barnyard, Retro Bar Room, Jail Room, and more.
The theme is going to be: "The Hare-Itics Ball : Ye Ole Bunny Jamme" Hop with it.
We really need some fresh bunny art so it's not just the same stuff recycled from last year.
We have alot of small (as in up to 5x5 feet) spaces spread around the venue that we'd love to fill with bunny art. This is where you come in to play. Do you have an idea for an art installation, interactive art piece, performance art piece, or anything really, that you would like to bring to bunny jam?
If so, send me a message or email me at sfaaron26@yahoo.com
We also need general volunteers for set up and running the party, but that doesn't take as much advanced planning.

BM Algae Enthusiasts - Camp mtg in Berkeley 2/13/07
Fellow Algae Enthusiasts,
Your intrepid algae adventurers Meggio & Dr Friendly have teamed up with another BM algae team -- the Chlorophyl Collective -- to create a synergistic symbiotic algae installation of unprecedented magnitude ... we will be removing greenhouses gases from air and exhaust, transforming it (and possibly waste water as well) into biodiesel and powerful edible anti-oxidants before the public's eyes as they share the algae's high-oxygen breath...
Looking for visual artists, architects, construction workers, educators & explainers, algae tenders, greenhouse makers, audio artists, scientists, ecosystem visionaries, gas and liquid system engineers, and all lovers of single-celled living ...
your input is invited ... come and meet us and our new collaborators. we will soon be submitting the proposal.
7 pm Tuesday February 13th,

Save-the-World Algae Farm BM 07
SAVE THE PLANET WITH
*ALGAE*
Interactive installation at Burning Man aka Greening Man 2007.
Biofuels are all over the news these days as a non-toxic way to eliminate greenhouse gases and our dependency on petroleum. But, to grow enough fuel for the U.S. using land crops (soybeans, switchgrass, ?waste? cellulose, etc.) would require more than the entire area of the country and cause massive ecological damage. How can we grow all the fuel we need without injuring our precious cropland, topsoil, and water supplies?
Microalgae produce prodigious amounts of biodiesel fuel and can be grown in salt water. This means it can be farmed in oceans, inland salt water lakes or non-productive land area (such as the playa!), reserving our fertile land and fresh water for ecosystems and growing food. Algae are also many times more productive per acre than any other biofuel technology. For example, a one-acre algae pond (208 feet x 208 feet) could supply fuel to 10+ ordinary diesel cars year-round. Algae can simultaneously treat wastewater and produce valuable co-products (fertilizer, nutrients, pigments, etc.). Because of the simplicity of making biodiesel from algae oil, DIY-ers, cooperatives, environmentalists, developing countries, and just about anyone can participate in this economical, eco-friendly approach to fuel-self sufficiency.
We are seeking collaborators and like-minded spirits to build and operate an inspirational educational algal biodiesel production facility for the 2007 Burning Man festival and beyond. We will show 40,000+ burners how to grow and harvest fast-growing, clean-smelling algae and make it into fuel!
We are building a greenhouse sanctuary to house the algae pool and Zen teahouse where we will serve green algae smoothies in the humid, oxygen-rich atmosphere generated by the algae. Evaporated water will be returned to the pond, minimizing water loss. Adjacent will also be the biodiesel oil washing system, and an area for educational exhibits. The minimal energy required for the algae growth and processing will be supplied by solar cells and solar heaters.
In the current conception, the algae pond will be approximately 6 inches deep and circle around a central lounge zone. Air-plants and algae-inspired art will also hang in the space, creating a healthful, contemplative atmosphere.
If you are interested and would like to help out, please mail us or come to our upcoming organizational meetings on the development of this playa installation. Enthusiastic algae farmers, educators, engineers, designers and builders are most welcome!

SF Liberation Radio Goes Head-to-Head vs. FCC indybay.org
Sun Feb 11 2007 Ninth Circuit Court Convenes on UC Berkeley Campus to Hear Oral Arguments
Three years after it was raided by armed federal marshals, SFPD and FCC agents, SF Liberation Radio will have its day in court on Wednesday, Feb. 14th, in a special federal court session convening on the UC Berkeley campus. SFLR, through counsel Mark Vermeulen and other pro bono attorneys from the National Lawyers Guild, will argue that the federal government violated the station’s first amendment rights when it obtained a warrant for the seizure of the equipment through a back-door, ex parte procedure. The US Government utilized a maritime law to conduct the raid without giving advance notice to the station, arguing that a radio station is literally like a ship that may sail away in the night.

Feb 14 demo at SF General Hospital, about rising cost of Cal state pot cards
Protest at SF General Hospital
to Re-instate City Medical Pot Card
by Naomi Grafitti
( scorpiosistah [at] gmail.com )
...
Axis of Love San Francisco
is Putting a Call out to all Medical Marijuana
Patients, Disability Activists, Aids Activists and Our
Allies in San Francisco to Come and Protest the
IMMENSE Increase in the FEE for a State Medical
Marijuana Card by Over $125 bucks – Ross Mirkarimi has
put a resolution to reinstate the city card program
that would cost 25-50 bucks.
It is facing an uphill battle.
Calling all the allies of the crips, disabled folks,
PWAs, survivors of cancer, vets- come on out hippies,
anarchists, libertarians and dykes, queers and
freaks....
Where Is the Love?
Come to San Francisco General Hospital
on Valentine's Day to show support for
reinstating the local SF (city-county)
Medical Marijuana Card Program
in the face of an enormous fee hike in the state card
program.
....
The cards are necessary to enter the dispensaries and
hold and smoke medical marijuana "legally" in CA. But
given that many patients live under the poverty level
and cannot afford both the doctors visit and the card
this hike will criminalize the poor. So the homeless
in Golden Gate Park cannot access the dispensaries. So
the folks on SSI might go to jail....
When: Valentine's Day- February 14th at noon.
Where- The Love Statue
at San Francisco General Hospital
The number 9, 33, 24 and 48 buses
will take you there...
Let the Love Children of San Francisco rise again!
Let the ghosts of the AIDS activists who died while
working on prop 215 walk among us, whispering-
"Have some freakin heart"
And remember- 30,000 vets are coming back from that
damn war- wounded. with a system that will not take
care of them- with PTSD, amputations, spinal cord
injuries-
We all owe them something. In Love and Rage, Naomi Graffiti

History of Pillow Fight Club
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillow_Fight_Club
2006 photos by Russ Juskalian
Leave it to a place like San Francisco to host the most visible incarnation of the Pillow Fight's flash-mob-esque gathering, and subsequent public pillow fight. I would say that a safe thousand people were milling around Justin Herman Plaza at Embarcadero and Market Streets in Downtown San Francisco. As the Ferry Building's clock struck 6pm, the lovey-rage could be cut with a knife from the air around. As 6pm approached, two lines were formed, people wielding pillows took one last breath of air: and running full speed at one another, a Braveheart-like scenario played out. The feathers were everywhere, pilling up to six inches in some parts.

Thursday: Community Tree Sit-in, please come and show your support
Dear Friends of the Oaks,
You are invited to participate in a Community Tree Sit-In this Thursday Feb 15 to make a major statement of support on behalf of the Oak Grove Tree-Sit.
This is a call for volunteers to take brief 30 minute to one hour turns in a low height secure tree platform. (This is the same platform where Shirley Dean, Betty Olds, and Sylvia McLaughlin sat, safely accessible via ladder.)
We're holding this event because UC administration is telling the media that the tree-sit protest is not supported by the broader community. The University Administration also announced Monday that they are considering plans to fence off the grove and evict the current tree-sitters.
This is a critical moment. Your support can make a real difference.
To demonstrate just how diverse our supporters are, including students, faculty members, and community members, we're asking you to please come join us for the event on Thursday.
The event will be structured as follows:
- Volunteer Tree-Sitters will spend a 1/2 hour to 1 hour in the tree. (WEATHER expected to be dry!)
- Press conference Thurs at 9am (Please come, whether you are a tree-sit volunteer or just supporter)
- a sit-in/vigil for 24 hours, from Thurs 9am to Fri at 9am.
If you would like to participate, please contact Matthew at 510-841-4061 or 510-684-7233 (feel free to leave a voicemail), or respond to this email, and we can answer any questions you have and schedule you for a time to sit in the tree (which can be anytime between Thurs 9am and Fri 9am).
Thanks for your continued support! For the trees,
the Save the Oaks at the Stadium Coalition

February 15: National Student Strike Against the War
Students at UC - Santa Barbara have initiated a one day student strike against the war on February 15th. February 15th marks the 4th anniversary of when millions of people came out around the world to protest Bush's planned war on Iraq. In the wake of Bush's escalation of a war that has already caused the deaths of 655,000 Iraqis and over 3,000 US soldiers, and threats to attack Iran, this student strike is urgently needed, and must spread to other campuses quickly. Now is not the time to be waiting for Congress to make slow incremental steps towards some eventual phased withdrawal. Now is the time for millions of people to get out and demand an end to the war immediately and the Bush administration be impeached for war crimes.
Latest list of campuses organizing acrions on Feb. 15 (latest additions at the top):

Vigil for animals on the 15th, as the Year of the Dog ends...UCSF sued again
Dear Animal Advocates, Companions, Lovers, Liberators and Vigilers!
The next vigil on behalf of animals incarcerated and exploited in laboratory experiments at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) will be held on the third Thursday of the month (as usual) - February 15, 4:30 PM (till about 6 PM). This will be the last vigil of the Year of the Dog (Chinese Calendar); the Year of the Boar (or Pig) begins on February 18.
The vigil will be held at UCSF's Parnassus Campus at 513 Parnassus Avenue in San Francisco. (Please see information on public transportation to UCSF below.)
UCSF sued again: Once again I have sued UCSF because of the university's delinquency in answering several records requests I had made pursuant to the California Public Records Act. Corey Evans, attorney at law, filed suit on my behalf just today, Friday, February 9, 2007. On the one hand, I feel lucky that I have acquired the services of Mr. Evans, a gentleman (in the truest sense of the word) and successful lawyer. Yet on the other hand, it is a shame that I have had to go to such ends to acquire information that I am entitled to by law. In any case, we will be attempting to acquire a variety of UCSF documents, including information on research that UCSF has contracted with the US Department of Defense to conduct, research protocols involving dogs at the university, medical records for dogs used in a cardiology research project, and UCSF's Annual Report of Research Facility for 2006. Corey Evans feels we have a good case, and success is likely; thus we may have these important documents by early spring. Time will tell.
Note Regarding Public Transportation: If you would like to take public transportation to UCSF, the San Francisco Muni buses #6 and #43 both go right by the vigil's venue on Parnassus Avenue; also you can take the N-Judah streetcar, get off at Carl & Arguello streets, and take the elevator (going up) within the UCSF facility to get to Parnassus Avenue. If you are coming from the East Bay, you can take BART, get off at any stop between Embarcadero and Civic Center in San Francisco, and then take an N-Judah streetcar going outbound (and follow directions above regarding N-Judah streetcar).
And please remember to be kind to yourself, as well as other animals. Hope to see you at the vigil - take care!

Dear Friends of the Environment and Dance!
Now here is a great reason to get together next week:
An evening of excellent music (live and DJ'd) great food and great community (to rally around a great cause): All on the occasion of an auspicious birthday!
Julia Butterfly Hill’s birthday bash fundraiser for Circle of Life:
Lydia’s Organics, Groove Garden and three great local acts have banded together to throw a fundraiser for what we believe to be very worthy cause – especially in this time of heightened environmental awareness. That cause is Circle of Life:
Based in Oakland, Circle of Life was founded to promote the sustainability, restoration and preservation of life. It is a stand for peace, justice and environmental sustainability; and in that space, it creates powerful events and meaningful opportunities for people and organizations to make a difference in the world we share.
All talent involved, bands and artists alike, are donating time and creativity to Circle of life. Lydia's Organics has underwritten the entire cost of the event. Circle of Life will receive 100% of the door!!
So in the spirit of The Groove Garden come join us for an outstandingly good time - - and we'll see you on the dancefloor!
The evening commences with a community dinner featuring the excellent culinary forays of food pioneer and respected chef, Lydia Kindheart

Save the Date for Solstinox - March 3, 2007
Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…
I can’t wait to dance with your playa souls again when the planets align. Sunshine
PS: More to come when it comes.

"The Secret" today on Oprah Thurs. Feb.8 at 4:00pm
Just a quick note to say hello and hope that your life is going great and
that you are connecting to your dreams and visions. There is a powerful
movie called "The Secret" which is all about that we attract whatever we
think and feel about the most. Oprah will talk about this movie and have
some of the people in the film on her show tomorrow Thurs. Feb. 8th at 4:00 pm.
Many of us have watched the movie several times and we could watch
it again and again and get more out of it. Here is a link to watch some of
it.
video.google.com/videoplay
Hope you can see the show or record it and definitely see the movie. We got
the movie from a website I think it is www.thesecret.tv
Sending lots of love and wishing you all the best of happiness and health,

Ruth Wilson Gilmore discussing Golden Gulag: Prisons, Surplus, Crisis, and Opposition in Globalizing California, published by U.C. Press
Since 1980, the number of people in U.S. prisons has increased more than 450%. Despite a crime rate that has been falling steadily for decades, California has led the way in this explosion, with what a state analyst called "the biggest prison building project in the history of the world." Golden Gulag provides the first detailed explanation for that buildup by looking at how political and economic forces, ranging from global to local, conjoined to produce the prison boom.
In an informed and impassioned account, Ruth Wilson Gilmore examines this issue through statewide, rural, and urban perspectives to explain how the expansion developed from surpluses of finance capital, labor, land, and state capacity. Detailing crises that hit California's economy with particular ferocity, she argues that defeats of radical struggles, weakening of labor, and shifting patterns of capital investment have been key conditions for prison growth. The results - a vast and expensive prison system, a huge number off incarcerated young people of color, and the increase in punitive justice such as the "three strikes" law - pose profound and troubling questions for the future of California, the United States, and the world. Golden Gulag provides a rich context for this complex dilemma, and at the same time challenges many cherished assumptions about who benefits and who suffers from the state's commitment to prison expansion.
"In this sophisticated, interdisciplinary study, brimming with new ideas, political savvy and moral urgency, Gilmore takes us on a demanding intellectual exploration of California's economic, political, spatial and cultural history." - San Francisco Chronicle
"A magnificent analysis of the political economy of superincarceration and the slave plantations that California calls prisons." - Mike Davis, author of Ecology of Fear
"Golden Gulag is a deeply necessary book for our times. Gilmore digs beneath the easy answers to the more troubling causes of a political consensus that prisons are the only solution to all urban and rural ills." - Nayan Shah, author of Contagious Divides: Epidemics and Race in San Francisco's Chinatown
Ruth Wilson Gilmore is Associate Professor of Geography and Director of the Program in American Studies and Ethnicity at the University of Southern California. She is a member of the founding collective of Critical Resistance, one of the most important national anti-prison organizations in the United States.

When: Thursday, February 8th 7:00pm to 9:30pm
Where:The Arete Center for Excellence in SF
Is there something stopping you from reaching your full potential? Something elusive you can’t quite identify? Do you experience something in the way of you having the kind of life you want and deserve? Does fear, anger, sadness, shame, guilt or for some, even grief, weigh you down unnecessarily? Do you often take things personally? Do you find yourself acting in reaction against, or in continuation of the patterns your parents demonstrated?
You would like to be free from significantly negative emotional events from your past? Truly free—to such a degree you are even grateful for them? Would you like to have a greater understanding of the power of your mind and the minds of those around you?
Have you attended personal development events and found them useful, but ultimately unfulfilling? Have you experienced “transformation”, but found it ultimately unpredictable or unsustainable without a rigorous community?
Would you be interested in freeing up so much of your essence that you were able live your life’s purpose—and prosper from it?
If you answered yes to any of that, join me for this free event.

Film Screening: Black Diamonds, Mountain Top Removal and the Fight for Coalfield Justice
Thursday, February 8 9:00 PM Station 40

San Francisco, California 94113
Category
Media
Description
Wells Fargo invests millions of dollars in rogue coal companies engaged in the wholesale decimation of Appalachian communities and ecosystems through the reckless mining practice known as mountaintop removal. Instead of financing clean, sustainable energy sources for the 21st century, Wells Fargo is bankrolling 19th century operations that produce electricity in the most polluting, most destructive ways possible.
Join us at Station 40 in San Francisco for a free screening of the incredible documentary, "Black Diamonds; Mountain Top Removal and the Fight for Coalfield Justice" (www.blackdiamondsmovie.com/).

BM Algae Enthusiasts - Camp mtg in Berkeley 2/13/07
Fellow Algae Enthusiasts,
Your intrepid algae adventurers Meggio & Dr Friendly have teamed up with another BM algae team -- the Chlorophyl Collective -- to create a synergistic symbiotic algae installation of unprecedented magnitude ... we will be removing greenhouses gases from air and exhaust, transforming it (and possibly waste water as well) into biodiesel and powerful edible anti-oxidants before the public's eyes as they share the algae's high-oxygen breath...
Looking for visual artists, architects, construction workers, educators & explainers, algae tenders, greenhouse makers, audio artists, scientists, ecosystem visionaries, gas and liquid system engineers, and all lovers of single-celled living ...
your input is invited ... come and meet us and our new collaborators. we will soon be submitting the proposal.

Save-the-World Algae Farm BM 07
SAVE THE PLANET WITH
*ALGAE*
Interactive installation at Burning Man aka Greening Man 2007.
Biofuels are all over the news these days as a non-toxic way to eliminate greenhouse gases and our dependency on petroleum. But, to grow enough fuel for the U.S. using land crops (soybeans, switchgrass, ?waste? cellulose, etc.) would require more than the entire area of the country and cause massive ecological damage. How can we grow all the fuel we need without injuring our precious cropland, topsoil, and water supplies?
Microalgae produce prodigious amounts of biodiesel fuel and can be grown in salt water. This means it can be farmed in oceans, inland salt water lakes or non-productive land area (such as the playa!), reserving our fertile land and fresh water for ecosystems and growing food. Algae are also many times more productive per acre than any other biofuel technology. For example, a one-acre algae pond (208 feet x 208 feet) could supply fuel to 10+ ordinary diesel cars year-round. Algae can simultaneously treat wastewater and produce valuable co-products (fertilizer, nutrients, pigments, etc.). Because of the simplicity of making biodiesel from algae oil, DIY-ers, cooperatives, environmentalists, developing countries, and just about anyone can participate in this economical, eco-friendly approach to fuel-self sufficiency.
We are seeking collaborators and like-minded spirits to build and operate an inspirational educational algal biodiesel production facility for the ?07 Burning Man festival and beyond. We will show 40,000+ burners how to grow and harvest fast-growing, clean-smelling algae and make it into fuel!
We are building a greenhouse sanctuary to house the algae pool and Zen teahouse where we will serve green algae smoothies in the humid, oxygen-rich atmosphere generated by the algae. Evaporated water will be returned to the pond, minimizing water loss. Adjacent will also be the biodiesel oil ?washing? system, and an area for educational exhibits. The minimal energy required for the algae growth and processing will be supplied by solar cells and solar heaters.
In the current conception, the algae pond will be approximately 6 inches deep and circle around a central lounge zone. Air-plants and algae-inspired art will also hang in the space, creating a healthful, contemplative atmosphere.
If you are interested and would like to help out, please mail us or come to our upcoming organizational meetings on the development of this playa installation. Enthusiastic algae farmers, educators, engineers, designers and builders are most welcome!

Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…
I can’t wait to dance with your playa souls again when the planets align. Sunshine

Tuesday at Mighty 6:30-11pm |
Benefit for our employee Misty whose house burned down last week
sanfrancisco.tribe.net/event/...0430f88
2007-02-06 6:30 PM Dear Friends and Family of Mighty,
Last week Mighty's bighearted employee Misty Monchek had a horrible tragedy
occur - she fled her house in SF while it was going up in flames and escaped
with nothing else but her license, her dog, and the clothes on her back. She
lost everything - computer, clothes, sentimental things, even her cat of 15
years. She did not have renter's insurance.
Many of you know Misty as the rock behind the bar at the Endup, and now know
her as the rock behind Mighty's bar. We are inviting all of our family and
friends to come to Mighty this Tuesday February 6th from 6:30pm-11pm to help
her get back on her feet.
All donations at the door and the bar will be matched by Mighty. Thomas
John Events donating food for the event. Their catering is second to none in
the Bay Area. DJs Seven, Soren, Michael May, and Chris McDonnell will be
serving up the beats.
Please pass this along to any other friends and family.
Good things happen to good people. Let's show Misty the truth to this.

Category

Description
Wells Fargo invests millions of dollars in rogue coal companies engaged in the wholesale decimation of Appalachian communities and ecosystems through the reckless mining practice known as mountaintop removal. Instead of financing clean, sustainable energy sources for the 21st century, Wells Fargo is bankrolling 19th century operations that produce electricity in the most polluting, most destructive ways possible.
Join us at Station 40 in San Francisco for a free screening of the incredible documentary, "Black Diamonds; Mountain Top Removal and the Fight for Coalfield Justice" (www.blackdiamondsmovie.com/).

March 3 - Burning Man's Flambé Lounge Burning Equinox (Still in planning stage - details will be announced when set)
Save the Date for Solstinox - March 3, 2007
Do you all remember that one night of the year we are farthest from the Man, yet equally distant from two encounters with his flames?
Do you all remember the intense playa energy this planetary alignment generates, and how hard it kicks us into the season of Man?
It’s coming back. Soon!
This year, it will be at Mighty in SF. It will be mighty big. The events committee that puts on SF Decom will make it happen. And it will be a fundraiser for Black Rock Arts Foundation. This year, the vision we created in 04 is all coming together!
That special night of the year our spirits named Solstinox is coming back March 3. If you don’t save the date, you must not remember…
I can’t wait to dance with your playa souls again when the planets align. Sunshine
PS: More to come when it comes.

Big Business Buys Silence of Toll Road Critical Newspapers
Foreign corporation in desperate lunge to quell massive popular dissent against Trans Texas Corridor & North American Union
A foreign toll road corporation has agreed to buy dozens of newspapers in Texas and Oklahoma that have up until now been harsh critics of the Trans Texas Corridor superhighway, a clear example of racketeering and a desperate lunge to silence dissent against the sellout of American infrastructure and the North American Union.

Many Bay Area Folks attended the Encounter Between the Zapatista Peoples and the Peoples of the World held in Oventik, Chiapas, Mexico on December 30 & 31, 2006
and January 1& 2, 2007. This meeting was called for members of the International Campaign to meet with the autonomous councils, Good Government Juntas, the comanders and members of the Other Campaign to learn about autonomy. The Encounter took place as the Other Campaign concludes its first year tour of Mexico and prepares to send its commanders throughout Mexico for the second phase of the Other Campaign. Many Chiapas Support Committee members attended the Encuentro and shot awesome video footage to bring back for editing. Some of us stayed on and visited our sister Zapatista municipality, San Manuel. Don’t miss this video report, musical treat and opportunity to get more info on how you can participate in the Zapatista Campaigns.

Turn off your lights on Feb 1st between 755pm and 8pm for the planet
www.climatecrisiscoalition.org
www.treehugger.com/files/20...he_li.php
The Alliance of the Planet (The grouping of environmental associations), lunched a simple call to all the citizens of the world: to give a 5 minutes Break to our planet:
everyone turn off all your lights for only five minutes on February 1, 2007 between 19h55 and 20h00 (7:55pm to 8:00pm) on your local time.
It is not a question of only saving 5 minutes of electricity on this specific day, but to draw the attention of citizens, the media and decision makers on the wasting of energy and the urgency to move and take some action!
A 5 minutes break to our planet, that does take a long time, does not cost anything, and will show to the candidates at the legislative elections of June 2007 that the climate change is a subject which must be a priority in the political debate.
Why on February 1? Because on this day in Paris , the new report of the United Nations climatic experts group will be issued.
We should not let the occasion to direct all the attention to the urgency of the world climatic situation pass by.
If we all take part in this action, it will have a real media and political impact, specially a few months before the elections in France and long enough before the elections in Quebec and Canada; so that we can influences the debates between the politicians.
For each time zone throughout the world, the lights will be turned off between 19h55 and 20h...the hour when this demonstration could be observed by the local media. We can then follow throughout the world every hour according to the different time zones. No matter in which country you are located, our governments will be challenged by our common force.

no doubt and hanging out. Or just in time to catch the Super Bowl Halftime
show over at the Beach Chalet. I hear that artist formally know as a symbol
will be whooping it up.
Note: DA & I are not sponsoring a bonfire, so if you start one, you are
responsible for it.
Where: Just off the bottom of the concrete steps on Ocean Beach where
Fulton meets Great Highway. Turn South off Fulton onto Great Highway and
enter at the first parking lot.
What to look for: tall flag with flames on it, beach chairs, peeps!
Weather: Supposed to be partly cloudy and 64 degrees Sunday. If its
raining,
10% chance, then we might not be there. So far we have had amazing weather
for each of the last 2 cleanup days.
What we're bringing:
MOOP Sticks
MOOP Buckets
Trash bags
Rubber Gloves
Landscaping rakes
Magnet rakes
Sifter screens
Plastic Buckets
Snacks
What you should bring:
MOOP Sticks, if you got your own
Gloves
Sweater/layers (could be windy, and will be cooler after dark )
Camp/beach chairs
Anything you'd like to drink
Snacks to share
Sunscreen! Even if it's partly cloudy, you can get a burn.
One other suggestion for you wonderful do-ers! Though there will be
trash bags there,
may I suggest a MOOP bucket. Bags get pretty unwieldy in the wind and
even the burly
ones can break with sharp objects inside. So reach on into your
recycling bin
(or your neighbors) on the way out the door and grab a plastic gallon
milk jug, or one
of the 2 gallon water containers everyone takes to BRC, or an orange
juice container.
Anything plastic will work. Then cut a hole in the top and voila! you
have a MOOP
bucket. This is what we use post event for playa restoration and it is
much easier to
carry around since it has a handle. Also, sharp objects don't potrude.
We'll have
some for those of you who don't have anything, but if you do, grab one.
It's in the
spirit of recycling which is even better. See ya'll Sunday Blue & DA

dial H-I-S-T-O-R-Y
by Johan Grimonprez
1:08:00
Buckle up for DIAL H-I-S-T-O-R-Y, the acclaimed hijacking documentary
that eerily foreshadowed 9/11. We meet the romantic skyjackers who
fought their revolutions and won airtime on the passenger planes of
the 1960's and 1970's. By the 1990's, such characters were apparently
no more, replaced on our TV screens by stories of anonymous bombs in
suitcases.
Director Johan Grimonprez investigates the politics behind this
change, at the same time unwrapping our own complicity in the urge for
ultimate disaster. Playing on Don DeLillo's riff in his novel Mao II:
"what terrorists gain, novelists lose" and "home is a failed idea", he
blends archival footage of hijackings with surreal and banal themes,
including fast food, pet statistics, disco, and his quirky home
movies. David Shea composed the superb soundtrack to this free fall
through history, best described in the words of one hijacked Pepsi
executive as "running the gamut of many emotions, from surprise to
shock to fear, to joy, to laughter, and then again, fear."
"Exceptional for its juice, its jazzy compelling fusion of social and
aesthetic issues, and its stomach-churning power."
- The New York Times
"A sense of urgency and a wrenching emotional attack."
- The Times (London)
"Each cut turns a screw deeper until your mind hurts."
- San Francisco Bay Guardian
"An eccentric, roller coaster ride through history."
- Time Out
The Other Cinema Digital label provides an alternative platform for
the distribution of extraordinary film works. We celebrate peculiar
visions and offbeat sensibilities, drawn from the contemporary
underground as well as the archives. Be it auteur, exploitation, or
industrial, OCD delivers a decidedly different audio-visual experience
-- ingenious, comic, critical... dangerous.

Vegetable Love, The History of Vegetarianism, by Stuart
Reviewed by Steven Shapin

Highlight the link, copy and paste into the address bar!
Although the long article contains thought provoking data, it also
seems to omit historical development in the U.S. during the 19th and
recent 20th century and also slightly distorts some of the facts.
For example, Hitler, in theory supported a vegetarian diet to purify
the human race but, in reality, he did not stick to the diet.
Nevertheless, it is good to have a serious book and article written
on Vegetarianism. There is a lot to chew on.

1900 3rd St, 2nd Floor (between 16th and Mariposa) San Francisco.
Purpose: To bring artists, scientists and eco-heros of various shapes and
sizes together in a social atmosphere with the Burning Man staff, to
honor their
contributions and inspire cross pollination in the year ahead as we
figure out exactly
what "Green Man" means to us!
Taking "green" into consideration means thinking about the effect each of
your decisions has on the environment and choosing the least harmful/most
beneficial option possible. Specific things to take into consideration
include materials being used, energy consumed, and waste produced. We
aren't
saying let's NOT burn art and we don't wish to dillute the intensity of the
creative expression at Burning Man. But we do want to inspire a sense of
ownership of the entire creative process from creation to destruction and
back in ways that inspire social change on and off the playa and
potentially
lead the way to new forms and concepts of art making.
Are you wondering how to power your art installation using alternative
energy?
Do you have knowledge of a new or green technology that might be of
interest
to artists?
Please join Burning Man staff and volunteers for a wine and cheese
reception
honoring artists, scientists, and members of our newly formed "Greening The
Burn Group" and let's see what conversations spark in the year ahead!
Members of the Art Dept and other Burning Man staff will also be on hand to
discuss the overall art process with you and see what's on your mind!
Please RSVP to special-events@burningman.com if you will attend.
Hope to see many of you there!

Jan 26-28 Free Three Day Transformational Seminar San Jose Convention Center
www.chrishoward.com/bts/
---------------------------------------------------------
Christopher Howard is coming to
town to host a free NLP/Personal Transormation seminar
9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday
January 26, 2007 to January 28, 2007
at the San Jose Convention Center.
This is really a great opportunity....
So, I went to this amazing wonderful 3 day Seminar called "Breakthrough
to Success" about a year ago and had a profoundly transformational experience.
The seminar leader, Christopher Howard, uses NLP practices to take you through powerful
change work around a specific focus area of your choosing - either health, career, or
relationships. (I absolutely love NLP and he is such a master, really!) It is an opportunity
to work with a master trainer for three days and put all your energy and attention on an
area of your life where you would like more fulfillment and success. The rewards that are
possible from taking the time to do something like this for yourself are immeasurable.
I attended the seminar a year ago and choose to focus on my career. As a result of the
workshop I have gained inspiring new clarity around my future career direction and how
my to pattern my current experiences to be congruent with that. The workshop opened
doors to more then I had before thought possible. I set strategies for achieving my
desired outcomes and have already taken action on putting some of them into place.
I see this course as valuable to you as a forum for self growth and achieving
greater personal fulfillment, as a place to learn new skills and tools for working with
colleagues, family, friends, and also as an opportunity to attend a super high quality
experiential presentation and apply the learnings you gather from the experience to times
in your future when you may be constructing workshops and training sessions.
Finally I see it as a opportunity for our community to come together and share a high
quality personal development experience, and to gain some new distinctions around how
to LIVE YOUR LIFE AS ART. I will be attending the next workshop (my third time) and my
hope is that a whole bunch of you will be joining me too!
Here is the website to sign up.
www.chrishoward.com/bts/
There were about 15 of us last time, we sat together and went to lunch together and
connected at the breaks, it was a great experience.
There are opportunities to enroll in additional courses - but no high pressure sales or
feelings of obligation to sign up for anything.... really. This is a valuable and FREE
experience...
I hope to see a bunch of you there.

Rally and March to End the War in Iraq
Powell and Market Streets
San Francisco
Over 3,000 dead American soldiers, hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqis. It's time to put a stop to the war machine. Millions of people voted to get the Republicans out and end the war, but we can't leave it up to the Democrats to do the only reasonable thing: BRING ALL THE TROOPS HOME NOW FROM IRAQ!
President Bush just announced his intent to escalate the number of troops in Iraq by over 20,000 more troops.
It's time to get the anti-war movement back in the streets! On January 27, hundreds of thousands of people will march in Washington, DC to demand an end to the war.
We're bringing the same message to the streets of San Francisco. Make your own signs and banners and march with your friends, family, co-workers, class-mates, church, union or organization. Join us to show Bush and the new Democratic Congress that the anti-war movement is back.

Sat Jan 27 Noon
What should you do when you're on fire? Most people realize being on fire is an emergency that needs to be dealt with immediately! Stop, drop and roll! What should you do when your government is out of control, run by a messianic nincompoop and a gaggle of feckless bureaucrats? While the personal danger may not be as immediate, the long term dangers of this political conflagration are no less grave. If you think they don't concern you, you're probably not paying attention.
This Saturday, January 27, United for Peace and Justice is organizing a demonstration in Washington, D.C. (There are also hundreds across the US, including one planned for San Franciso, as well.)
www.unitedforpeace.org/calendar.php
See web site for more details:
www.unitedforpeace.org
It's not just to protest Bush's decision to send 21,500 more troops to Iraq. That's bad enough. But there's also the matter of Iran. Think W's not foolhardy enough to attack Iran? Well, take a look at the evidence assembled by physicist Jorge Hirsch. It doesn't look good. In particular, follow some of the links under the "Preparations for the Iran attack" header. Can we stop this one before it starts?

Rally and March to End the War in Iraq
Saturday, January 27th 2007 12pm
San Francisco, CA USA
Bring the Troops Home Now from Iraq! Stop Racist Attacks on Arabs and Muslims! End the Occupation of Palestine!
Almost 3,000 dead American soldiers, at least 650,000 dead Iraqis. It's time to put a stop to the war machine. Millions of people voted to get the Republicans out and end the war, but we can't leave it up to the Democrats to do the only reasonable thing: BRING ALL THE TROOPS HOME NOW FROM IRAQ!
The Iraq Study Group offers more of the same, or even an escalation of troops in Iraq. President Bush is vowing to continue the war and the danger grows every day that the US or Israel will attack Lebanon again or launch another "pre-emptive strike" against Syria or Iran.
It's time to get the anti-war movement back in the streets! On January 27, hundreds of thousands of people will march in DC to demand an end to the war. Let's show Bush and the new Democratic Congress that the anti-war movement is back.
Make your own signs and banners and march with your friends, family, co-workers, class-mates, church, union or organization.

Dear Loved Ones
(please feel free to forward to friends and family),
I'm inviting you to join me! I haven't been out on the streets since the day we began the bombing in Iraq (when I spent 12 hrs. in jail!) but the time seems to have come when a visible show of support might be in order. I've been following the recent debates in the House and the Senate, which for the first time are openly opposing the Iraqi war, and I am at last hopeful and so proud of the many who are standing up, including our very own Nancy Pelosi! There's a voice inside saying urgently "We need to consolidate our creative efforts and unite in coming up with solutions to protect and heal our beautiful planet - now! - and address the much bigger issue of Global Warming (thank you Al Gore! and so many others).
Rally and March to End the War in Iraq
Saturday, January 27th 2007, 12 pm, Powell and Market
San Francisco, CA USA
(The following are excerpts copied from the internet re this Sat. (the colors and parenthetical comments are mine!):
United for Peace and Justice has called for a massive mobilization in Washington, DC for Saturday, January 27th. There will also be a San Francisco Rally and March to End the War in Iraq that day - people will gather at 12 pm at Powell and Market. In Washington, DC, protesters plan to assemble on the east end of the National Mall, the end closest to the Capitol, from 11am to 1pm, and to march around the Capitol until 4pm. UFPJ has applied for march and rally permits.

Dancing in the Streets . . .
Millions of people voted to get the Republicans out and end the war, but we can't leave it up to the Democrats. They need our support.
President Bush is vowing to continue the war and the danger grows every day that the US or Israel will attack Lebanon again or launch another "pre-emptive strike" against Syria or Iran.
It's time to (go dancing in the streets!)! On January 27, hundreds of thousands of people will march (and party) in DC to demand (ask for) an end to the war. Let's show Bush and the new Democratic Congress that (we are alive and well and committed).
Make your own signs and banners and march (and dance) with your friends, family, co-workers, class-mates, church, union or organization.
Location:
Powell and Market Street San Francisco CA
* * *
UFPJ wants to have a huge turnout in order to send the strongest, clearest message to the new Congress, with the goal of at least one person from each of the 435 Congressional districts marching on January 27th to "help represent the truly nationwide peace majority." UFPJ also wants people to sign up to be local coordinators for people travelling from their areas to Washington, DC. The website includes links to ride and housing boards.
UFPJ has also planned a Lobby Day: On Monday, January 29th, volunteers and staff will meet with members of Congress and/or their aides. A training for the Lobby Day will be held on Sunday, January 28th.

IMPEACH FLASHMOB -- Sat, Jan 27, 11:50 a.m., Wash DC
Hi everyone... I am in DC... excited... ready to try to pull off tomorrow
(Saturday, Jan 27) what we did at Ocean Beach three weeks ago... However this
time it will be in George Bush's and everyone else's backyard... with the
Capitol Dome in the background... If you know anyone in DC this weekend, please
forward this to them... they won't want to miss this...
As always, thanks for you support!

IMPEACH FLASHMOB -- SATURDAY, JAN 27, 11:50 a.m., National Mall, Washington DC
(Gather on sidewalk, Monument side of 14th Street, at the National Mall, by
11:50 a.m.)
On Saturday, Jan 6 -- just three weeks ago -- 1,000 people lay down on the beach
in San Francisco and with their bodies spelled out the message “IMPEACH!” in
100-foot letters. The story and photos (with the Golden Gate Bridge in the
background) went worldwide – front page of the Christian Science Monitor.
On Saturday, Jan 27, we are going to repeat the event here in Washington on the
National Mall at noon. Please come and be part of this historic event -- meet
at 11:50 a.m. just east of the Washington Monument – specifically, on the
sidewalk on the Monument side of 14th Street. A photographer at the top of the
Washington Monument will take a picture of 1,000 of us lying down in the grass,
spelling out “IMPEACH!” with the Capital Dome in the background. Please
come – bring anyone and everyone you can.
We need 1,000 people to fill the lettering, but can accommodate thousands more.
It will be a bang-bang affair –- no more than 15 minutes from start to finish.
If we pull this off, it will be huge (possibly NY Times, Washington Post,
etc…) and it will be historic. Don’t be late -- arrive by 11:50 a.m., look
for volunteers handing out flyers with directions, follow the flyer’s
directions and also the voice commands of the nearby volunteers. Stay off the
grass, keep to the sidewalk, until the ropes that outline the lettering are in
place. At 12 o’clock sharp, if all goes as planned, you will see a volunteer
in the middle of the crowd raise a green flag. Walk slowly please into the
lettering that you will see outlined in ropes and lie down (it’s a good idea,
but not necessary, to bring a small tarp or blanket to lie down on), and wait
until you see the red flag indicating that the photographers up in the Monument
have gotten what they need, and that the event is over.
Volunteers Needed - If you can volunteer to help out with this event, please
come to a meeting in the “Federal Room” at the Hotel Washington (515, 15th
Street@ Pennsylvania Ave.), 7-9 pm Friday night, Jan 26th. Or call Brad Newsham
at 415-305-8294.
THANK YOU! Please send this to anyone you know who is in Washington this
weekend...!
(Situation is set, but fluid. For current updates call 510-277-5241)

Make out for Environmental Justice this Sat! (pls fwd)
PG&E has recently launched a multi-million dollar greenwashing campaign throughout San Francisco. You may have seen their ads on the side of MUNI buses announcing what "GREEN IS..."
The campaign represents PG&E as "greening the city", but their campaign promises little and PG&E is far from green. They get less than 3% of their energy from solar and wind sources combined AND they have lobbied against incentives for installing solar panels in the recent past. Meanwhile, the alternative to PG&E, Community Choice Energy, promises to run San Francisco on 50% renewable energy sources – mostly solar and wind - within the next decade.
So... how does this relate to making out?
Well, as part of their "commitment" to greening this city, PG&E has installed solar panels to the rooftop of the LGBT Center on Market; and they are having a press conference and green fair to let the world know about it!
So... a group of conscientious queer and queer-friendly folks want to let that press know that we love the LGBT center, but are not too happy with PG&E's deceptive campaign.... and we are going to do something about it!
Come help us make a scene outside the LGBT center this Saturday! Wear green, have fun, and get noticed (that's the point)!
What: PG&E CounterCampaign
When: This Saturday, January 27th 10:30am
Where: In front of the LGBT Community Center, 1800 Market St, SF
contact dirtytruth@letsgreenwashthiscity.org if you want to help out with sign making on Friday, or if you want to know more.
Need more convincing?
Visit letsgreenwashthiscity.org to see more hard facts against PG&E's green image.
Then visit PG&E's site letsgreenthiscity.com, and be that much more drastically aware of what's missing.

Sun, 1/28 Ingrid Newkirk at Cody's Books SAN FRANCISCO, CA
upcoming.org/event/137345 4:30 PM 2 Stockton St
INGRID NEWKIRK introduces 50 AWESOME WAYS KIDS CAN HELP ANIMALS: Fun and Easy Ways to Be a Kind Kid. How do you roust today’s TV- and computer-dazed kids out of their comfy confines to get them busy making the world a better place? Just ask PETA founder Ingrid Newkirk, who over the past two decades has transformed animal rights from an obscure social movement into all the rage among young people from Manhattan to Manila, and who knows the kids who realize that when it comes to animals, cruel is definitely not cool. Her book is packed with everything from why tropical fish weren’t meant to be room decorations to how to stand up to teachers who think they can make you dissect a grog and how to handle that guy down the street who kicks his dog – stuff kids can really sink their teeth into. Through PETA’s two offshoots, PETAKids and peta2, and their popular respective Web sites, Newkirk has hooked teens and preteens up with many of their favorite celebrities, who also happen to be very pro-animal. Kids, parents, teachers, and friends: come learn from a real expert! 4:30 PM at Cody’s Stockton Street, San Francisco
