Documentary Film -- Plan Colombia: Cashing In on the Drug Wa...
Where: Unitarian Universalists of San Mateo
Date: 2008-05-16 19:00:00
Type:
This 2004 film is still largely relevant. It discusses a dangerous hypocrisy, aided by the American government, in which Colombia, as the world's biggest cocaine exporter, gives rise to an illegal drug trade. The funding of the trade by radical factions, a corrupt government at the time, and the fact that most farmers harvest coca because they can't survive on the profits of legitimate food crops all combine for a disastrous plan depicted in the film. "Plan Colombia" also deals with the connection to the School of the Americas, as well as the destruction of legal natural resources by aerial fumigation in the name of eradicating drug crops. The latter situation of crop fumigation has been somewhat improved since the film was made, but the U.S. military-industrial complex continues to cash in on the violence they themselves perpetrate, while still doing little to actually stem cocaine production in Colombia. The film is 57 minutes. It was directed by Gerald Ungerman and narrated by Ed Asner. Free.
Bay Area Maker Faire 2007
Where: San Mateo Fairgrounds
Date: 2007-05-19 00:00:00
Type:
Ok gang, we have an official press release for Maker Faire - we're projecting 40k attendees this year! "You ain't seen nuthin' yet..."-Bachman-Turner Overdrive Sebastopol--The 2nd Annual Bay Area Maker Faire (May 19 & 20) at the San Mateo Fairgrounds in northern California is just 10 days away, and this year's event is shaping up to be even better than last year's award-winning DIY fiesta! This year's event will have twice as many Makers (400), twice as many fans (40,000 anticipated), and twice the terrain (200,000 square feet). Just a few of this year's incredible highlights: The Kitchen of the Future--Unlike the retro-futuristic unkept promise of the 50's, this kitchen is musical--a collection of circuit-bent, MIDI-ready appliances such as a toaster and blender. This debuted in Toronto last year, and for the finale the blender triggered sound samples from the song "Tequila" while blending frozen margaritas... Project Pimento--There's only one theremin lounge band and we've got them at Maker Faire. Project: Pimento will launch with a half-hour set and then play several short sets throughout the afternoon. Other great bands will play throughout the day outdoors on the main stage. Moonshine Powered Motors--David Blume shows how to produce your own alcohol auto fuel from ground corn and enzymes, and how to convert your car to run on it. Blume is the author of "Alcohol Can Be a Gas." The Woz--Steve Wozniak, inventor of the Apple computer will be interviewed Saturday on our main stage. Swap-O-Rama-Rama Fashion Show--Participants can donate a bag of old clothes--and then work with a team of celebrated designers to make new clothes! This year's Swap will take place on May 19th (11am to 5pm) and May 20th (11am to 4pm) with a recycled fashion show happening at 5pm on Saturday May 19th. Other incredible highlights include: The "King of Fling" catapult competition, The Puppy Mover Monorail, Survival Research Labs (SRL), Five Foot Russian Submarine, Junkyard Jet, Bazaar Bizarre, Silicon Death Valley, RoboGames' Combat Robots, Power Tool Drag Races, Life-size Mousetrap, Walking Robotic Chariot, Build Your Own Blinkybug, The Electric Giraffe, The Disgusting Spectacle, Tomato-basket Dragons and Whales, Internet Crane Game, The Art of Motion Control, Model Rocket Video Camera, Chris Benton's Kite Aerial Photography, Electric Supercars, Roobma Hacking, Winners of the Most Spectacular Failures contest, and acres more. Established by the tech-loving creators of the gloriously irreverent Make and Craft magazines, Maker Faire is a family-friendly, hands-on event where hundreds of backyard inventors gather to share their fun projects, creative ideas and eye-popping creations. This resurgence of grassroots invention has been celebrated everywhere from Rolling Stone to The Wall Street Journal, but nowhere is it more visible than at Maker Faire. "They're enthusiasts and hobbyists," said Dale Dougherty, Editor and Publisher of Make magazine, explaining the magazine's following. "People are doing something they love, and they love talking about it.It's one thing to do a project. But the real satisfaction is to share it with other people. That's what Maker Faire is all about." Sponsors: Microsoft, Google, Yahoo!, Adobe, Carlo Rossi, Chronicle Books, Lion Brand Yarn Company, ShopBot, Sun Microsystems, Inc., TechShop, Texterity.

Voices of the Valley 10th Anniversary Concert
Where: Bayside Performing Arts Center
Date: 2008-06-07 19:30:00
Type:
On June 7th, 2008, Voices of the Valley will present an attractive feast of musical enjoyment for the 10th anniversary concert. A rich program with selections from Gilbert & Sullivan's Gondoliers will surely delight, entertain, and stimulate your musical senses. This semi-staged operetta will bring you to the shores of Venice, the "City of Water", where the story of two gallant and peerless gondoliers and their true love slowly unfolds... Then West will meet East with Traditional Chinese Folk Songs. From the Italian gondoliers, the audience will be transported to the villages of China, with villagers singing and communicating with each other in music and song... In the old days, a good singer of Chinese folk songs would have a better chance of winning over their bride of choice... The concert will also feature other exiting choral works: Echo Song (sung in a cappella), Neighbor's Chorus (from the comic opera "La jolie Parfumeuse"), For the Beauty of the Earth, Bridge over Trouble Water, I Believe, I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing, etc...
