End of the world as we know it
You might feel fine, but high oil cost, scarcity mean American Empire is about to come crashing down
Peak oil spells the end of civilization. And, if it's not already too late, perhaps it will prevent the extinction of our species.
M. King Hubbert, a petroleum geologist employed by Shell Oil Co., described peak oil in 1956. Production of crude oil, like the production of many non-renewable resources, follows a bell-shaped curve. The top of the curve is termed "peak oil," or "Hubbert's peak," and it represents the halfway point for production.

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

Bush, Sr. killed JFK because JFK saved Cuba from the CIA invasion.
Bush stole the 68 elections, but Democrats never complain about that.
JFK ordered troops out of Vietnam. This caused the CIA to shoot JFK,
so they could invade Vietnam. http://members.tripod.com/paulkangas You tube: paul8kangas

We support a strike by the soldiers. Did Bush sr. Kill JFK? How does that effect the election 2008?
My name is Paul Kangas. I am the Vice President for Veteran for Peace.
It will take a strike by
front line GI's, as happened in Vietnam & during WWI to stop this war.
We need to reach out to young boys, age 9 & recruit them into the anti-war movement. I joined the peace movement when I was age 9.
Then I was drafted. In the Navy, at age 19 in 1961, I helped organize a strike against the Bay of Pigs. Thanks of President Kennedy, the invasion of Cuba was stopped. After than, I got orders to go to Vietnam in 1963. Again I refused to go to war. I was then sent to Iceland for a year of
punishment duty. Kennedy then ordered all US troops out of Vietnam, Executive Order 263. Bush then killed JFK.
There was a movie made about strikes by front line troops, in WWI, called Merry Christmas. Have you seen the movie? Most vets have seen the movie. It is quite powerful.
Meet Paul Kangas, on 4-23-08, Herbst Theater, Rm 215, 401 VanNess & McAllister, 6pm, slideshow on the Bay of Pigs, the JFK assassination & the 2008 election.
Hear Paul Thur 4-3-08, KPOO, 89 fm, 1pm on the King assassination & the 2008 election & why neither Obama nor Clinton can stop this war, unless them want to be assassinated.
We support a strike by the soldiers. Paul Kangas,

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

Thu Apr 24 Earth on the Balance Sheet: Making Sustainability Real
One Planet Budgeting: Making Sustainability Real with the Ecological Footprint
Are we running out of planet? Was Thomas Malthus wrong? Do economies
self-correct or self-destruct when they operate as if resources were
limitless? The Ecological Footprint explores these questions, and
provides the tools to answer them. Global Footprint Network Executive
Director Mathis Wackernagel will showcase applications from around the
world, showing how government agencies, NGOs, businesses, and cities
are making use of this tool to address issues of sustainability.
Wackernagel will discuss the way, just as financial accounting tracks
economic health, measures like the Footprint can help us manage our
ecological balance sheet and develop policies that protect rather than
deplete our natural capital.
Making Sustainability Real in a Business Environment
Your business recycles, has switched to renewable energy and compact
fluorescents--now what? How do businesses incorporate sustainability
practices that engage their employees, customers, clients, and
stakeholders in a meaningful and proactive way? Several case studies of
businesses that have used ClimatePartner's processes will be examined
to show that sound sustainability practices are not only good for the
planet, but good for business, too.

Tuesday, 4/29, 7 pm -- LAURA ANTONIOU (The Marketplace series) presents
TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT, WHAT YOU REALLY REALLY WANT
Often, when we try to tell our partners what we like or want, those words are filtered through things like expectations, projection, fear, shame and verbal shortcuts. Expand your creativity and verbal skills beyond "I like flogging" or "anything you want" through an interactive game and exercise. Learn how creative communication and courageous risk-taking can make your relationship and play more intimate, satisfying and fun. Communicate fantasies in a way that will inspire reality; say what you mean, and mean what you say – and make it seductive.
At the Center for Sex & Culture, 1519 Mission near 11th -- look for the pink awning.
$20-40 sliding scale; tell us if you need work exchange.
CSC can take checks and credit cards (Visa, MC and Discover). Pre-register at (415) 255-1155 or mail [at] sexandculture.org

SAN FRANCISCO MAY DAY ACTIONS
THURSDAY, MAY 1, 2008
Join Direct Action to Stop the War (DASW) as we join in solidarity with
immigrants and ILWU dockworkers on May Day. Dockworkers are taking direct
action against the war by stopping work at West Coast ports on International
Workers' Day. Meanwhile, immigrant rights groups will again be marching this
year demanding amnesty.
DASW will also go to the military recruitment center and Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE). Let's call for an end to the war and protest the
military's bribing of immigrants to enlist in the war as a fast track to
citizenship!
"Support dockworkers' direct action!"
"The war is illegal--immigrants aren't!"

End of the world as we know it
You might feel fine, but high oil cost, scarcity mean American Empire is about to come crashing down
Peak oil spells the end of civilization. And, if it's not already too late, perhaps it will prevent the extinction of our species.
M. King Hubbert, a petroleum geologist employed by Shell Oil Co., described peak oil in 1956. Production of crude oil, like the production of many non-renewable resources, follows a bell-shaped curve. The top of the curve is termed "peak oil," or "Hubbert's peak," and it represents the halfway point for production.

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

Bush, Sr. killed JFK because JFK saved Cuba from the CIA invasion.

JFK ordered troops out of Vietnam. This caused the CIA to shoot JFK,

We support a strike by the soldiers. Did Bush sr. Kill JFK? How does that effect the election 2008?
My name is Paul Kangas. I am the Vice President for Veteran for Peace.
It will take a strike by
front line GI's, as happened in Vietnam & during WWI to stop this war.
We need to reach out to young boys, age 9 & recruit them into the anti-war movement. I joined the peace movement when I was age 9.
Then I was drafted. In the Navy, at age 19 in 1961, I helped organize a strike against the Bay of Pigs. Thanks of President Kennedy, the invasion of Cuba was stopped. After than, I got orders to go to Vietnam in 1963. Again I refused to go to war. I was then sent to Iceland for a year of
punishment duty. Kennedy then ordered all US troops out of Vietnam, Executive Order 263. Bush then killed JFK.
There was a movie made about strikes by front line troops, in WWI, called Merry Christmas. Have you seen the movie? Most vets have seen the movie. It is quite powerful.
Meet Paul Kangas, on 4-23-08, Herbst Theater, Rm 215, 401 VanNess & McAllister, 6pm, slideshow on the Bay of Pigs, the JFK assassination & the 2008 election.
Hear Paul Thur 4-3-08, KPOO, 89 fm, 1pm on the King assassination & the 2008 election & why neither Obama nor Clinton can stop this war, unless them want to be assassinated.
We support a strike by the soldiers. Paul Kangas,

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

Thu Apr 24 Earth on the Balance Sheet: Making Sustainability Real
One Planet Budgeting: Making Sustainability Real with the Ecological Footprint
Are we running out of planet? Was Thomas Malthus wrong? Do economies
self-correct or self-destruct when they operate as if resources were
limitless? The Ecological Footprint explores these questions, and
provides the tools to answer them. Global Footprint Network Executive
Director Mathis Wackernagel will showcase applications from around the
world, showing how government agencies, NGOs, businesses, and cities
are making use of this tool to address issues of sustainability.
Wackernagel will discuss the way, just as financial accounting tracks
economic health, measures like the Footprint can help us manage our
ecological balance sheet and develop policies that protect rather than
deplete our natural capital.
Making Sustainability Real in a Business Environment
Your business recycles, has switched to renewable energy and compact
fluorescents--now what? How do businesses incorporate sustainability
practices that engage their employees, customers, clients, and
stakeholders in a meaningful and proactive way? Several case studies of
businesses that have used ClimatePartner's processes will be examined
to show that sound sustainability practices are not only good for the
planet, but good for business, too.

Tuesday, 4/29, 7 pm -- LAURA ANTONIOU (The Marketplace series) presents
TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT, WHAT YOU REALLY REALLY WANT
Often, when we try to tell our partners what we like or want, those words are filtered through things like expectations, projection, fear, shame and verbal shortcuts. Expand your creativity and verbal skills beyond "I like flogging" or "anything you want" through an interactive game and exercise. Learn how creative communication and courageous risk-taking can make your relationship and play more intimate, satisfying and fun. Communicate fantasies in a way that will inspire reality; say what you mean, and mean what you say – and make it seductive.
At the Center for Sex & Culture, 1519 Mission near 11th -- look for the pink awning.
$20-40 sliding scale; tell us if you need work exchange.

Join Direct Action to Stop the War (DASW) as we join in solidarity with

year demanding amnesty.
DASW will also go to the military recruitment center and Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE). Let's call for an end to the war and protest the
military's bribing of immigrants to enlist in the war as a fast track to
citizenship!
