"...Kirtan, also known as sankirtan, is an ancient musical art form specifically used to glorify the Supreme Lord, Sri Krishna. In its religious fervor and heartfelt expression, it has been likened to modern American Gospel music. The roots of kirtan go back over 500 years to Renaissance India. During this period the influence and style of kirtan became the focal point for the upsurge in religious expression in Bengal, which was inspired mainly by the great saint Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. This joyful mood quickly spread throughout India, where today kirtan is accepted as one of the surest paths to enlightenment."
Tuesday and wednesday, Aug. 16th and 17th, community fire circles will be held to share conversation and presentations.

http:// www.comeflywithmenude-movie.com
The feature film "Come Fly With Me Nude" is finished! We think. We need a test audience to view it and give us their feedback. If you were involved in the making of this project or know anyone who was, we ask that you do NOT attend. We’ll have a cast & crew / friends & family screening next month. For now, we need a neutral and objective audience. You will fill out a brief questionnaire (@ 10 minutes) after the film, which is 96 minutes.
Wednesday, August 17, 2005. Doors open 6:30pm; complimentary hors d’oeuvres and drinks (courtesy of 2223, Skyy Vodka, Izze Beverage Company, Cheese Plus, and SF Brewing company) served until film starts, 7:30pm SHARP (no one will be admitted once film has begun)

PLEASE RSVP TO INFO@DOMBELLA.COM PLEASE PROVIDE A CONTACT TELEPHONE NUMBER SO WE CAN CONFIRM (our caterers request an accurate headcount). Proof of age required for alcoholic beverages. There is no nudity in the film, only a little naughty language.
NB: I performed as my mad poet alter ego "Barbie Braun" and choreographed a dance number.
We need to pack the house for the screening, but the audience must be as impartial as possible. So, if you would forward this announcement to your people (all the better if your people don't overlap too much with my people), I would be very appreciative.

# Thursday, August 18, 10am-3pm Protest CareerBuilder Fair -
Stop using Chimpanzees in Commercials,
Apes on television and in the movies have something in common with their human costars—their wide, toothy grins. The apes, however, are “smiling” in terror. To them, acting is strange, upsetting, and often torturous. During the 2005 Super Bowl, CareerBuilder.com released four commercials featuring chimpanzees made to act like humans. PETA contacted CareerBuilder, as well as the advertising agency that created the commercials, Cramer-Krasselt, to explain to them about the abuse great apes endure who are used for commercials, but we have received no response from either company.
What: Distributing leaflets at CareerBuilder Fairs about the suffering Great Apes endure in order to “perform” for entertainment

# Happy Trees preview (A Bob Ross satire) Thursday, August 18th
Screening: 9pm, Party: 8pm - midnight FREE
Directed by San Francisco artist Jakob Bokulich and co-directed with theater veteran Bobby Weinapple, Happy Trees (28 min.) can be seen either as a conceptual art comedy, or as a scathing satire directed at the art world. Jakob Bokulich (The Mission Movie, Hysteria) plays Bob, who is modeled on Bob Ross (www.bobross.com), as is the film's "how-to" format. In this case, however, Bob is trying to draw Rauschenberg's "Erased deKooning Drawing," (http://www.sfmoma.org/msoma/artworks/93.html) which leads to a tricky philosophical problem: how do you draw an erased drawing? The problem compounds when three Barney-esque cheerleaders appear (Candace Collins, Diana Rivera from Roccoco Risque, and Paula Van Der Zwaan), effectively destroying the how-to show, and propelling Bob into a hilarious head trip.
This is also a going-away party for Jakob and his lady Annie as they abscond to LA. Groovy tunes will be provided by Chauncey who normally DJs at el Rio, a Capoeira roda is likely, as are clowns on stilts - so be forwarned.

# Oil Curse (Amnesty international screening) Thu Aug 18, 8:00 PM
Artists' Television Access 992 Valencia Street @ 21st

http://www.atasite.org/calendar/
OIL: It's in our clothes, our laundry detergent, our toothpaste, cosmetics, furniture, contact lenses and office supplies. It's in our telephones, CDs, tennis rackets, painkillers and plastic. Oil doesn't just fuel our cars - it fuels modern life. Continuing instability in the Middle East means a shaky future for the steady flow of oil on which Americans
depend so heavily. Factor in Western nations' insatiable power needs and the energy demands of huge, growing economies like China's, when the world's reserves of easily accessible "black gold" are already strained, and the oil industry finds itself forced to enter uncharted terrain. Where will tomorrow's oil come from? And how far are we
willing to go to get it?
"Oil Curse" is a documentary which shows the impact of Chevron Texaco's oil operations on native communities in Ecuador and Angola. It is part of a series on Global Oil Operations...from Ecuador to Alaska.

# 8/19: Friday 8/19 THE FUTURE OF FOOD (berkeley)
THIRD FRIDAY "CONSCIENTIOUS PROJECTOR" FILM SERIES
Great Film by DEBORAH KOONS GARCIA "THE FUTURE OF FOOD" followed by
discussion led by DR. IGNACIO CHAPELA, newly tenured UC Biology Professor featured in film.
FRIDAY, AUGUST 19, 7PM Unitarian Universalist Fellowship Hall
1924 CEDAR (@Bonita) Berkeley
Wheelchair accessible. Refreshments. $10 donation sliding scale. No one turned away for lack of funds
Sponsored by the BFUU Social Justice Committee. For more info: 510-528-5403
Don't miss this fascinating film about the revolution happening on the farms
and dinner tables of America, transforming the very nature of the food we
eat. THE FUTURE OF FOOD offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing
truth behind the unlabeled, patented, genetically engineered foods that have
quietly filled grocery store shelves for the past decade. From the prairies
of Saskatchewan, Canada to the fields of Oaxaca, Mexico this film gives a voice
to farmers whose lives and livelihoods have been negatively impacted by this
new technology. The health implications, government policies and push
towards corporate globalization are all part of the reason why many people are
alarmed about the introduction of genetically altered crops into our food
supply. THE FUTURE OF FOOD examines the complex web of market and political
forces that are changing what we eat as huge multinational corporations seeks to
control the world's food system. The film also explores alternatives to
large-scale industrial agriculture, placing organic and sustainable agriculture as real solutions to the farm crisis today.

Aloha Kakou,
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS EMAIL, THIS IS IMPORTANT NEWS
REGARDING THE RECENT RULING AGAINST KAMEHAMEHA SCHOOLS.
To all my family and friends, please show your continued support for
the Hawaiian culture by attending this protest AND/OR forwarding this

from my Kumu, Kawika Alfiche, Director of the APOP Hawaiian Cultural
Center.
Mahalo nui for your support!
Julie "Apanalei"
aloha mai kakou -
I'm asking you, your family, your friends, and all supporters of the
Hawaiian culture to be there for this, for the support of Kamehameha
schools, Hawaiian homesteads, Ali`i lands and endless amount of wrong
doings that we have endured. At this point it's not political, it's
making yet another stand to what's "Right is Right" and what's "Wrong
is Wrong!!"
100 years ago the over throw of the monarchy - and now this! what's
next?
please be there to support me, your kumu, all people Hawaiian, and all
lovers of Hawaiian things. If you hula, you get something from what
our ancestors left us - this is one way to reciprocate and ho`omana
our kupuna and our keiki.

St. (cross street is Mission) in San Francisco.
The "Civic Center" station for BART and Muni will get you to Market

there should be ample parking in the city lots on Mission and 5th St.
We will march FROM the Ninth Circuit and END AT U.N. PLAZA , corner of
8th and Market. This venue can accommodate a much larger crowd, and
because of its location in the heart of San Francisco, we are more
likely to garner attention.
WHAT: Protest march and rally in support of Kamehameha schools and all
things Hawaiian. - Hula/Speeches/Pule - Organized mele/oli/hula (in
the next blog all of the mele). This is not a show/performance - the
mele/oli/hula are meant for unification, please don't come with your
purple/pink pa`u and glitter kupe`e ;-)

banners/signs (NO racist comments please), bamboo or stick with
red/black ribbon to wave.

Itinerary (tentative): Meet at noon, 12:30 start: Pule (all forms from
all denominations welcome) - approx 1pm start march (march oli's) -
arrive at Plaza - Speeches, Oli, Hula.
Gentle but important reminder: I want to encourage everyone in
advance to remember that we want to draw attention for a pono march
and rally. Please keep signage to slogans such as "Education for
Hawaiians," "Justice for Hawaiians," "Hawaiian Unity," and the like.
We will have flyers from the Kamehameha Schools with educational
information about the admissions policy to hand out to media and
interested passersby. Let's make sure the judiciary (many of whom
likely live in the Bay Area) have a completely positive impression of
us when the full panel convenes to reconsider Doe vs. Kamehameha.
I've attached the standard mele/oli/hula from past protests - please
by all means, if you'd like to take on some kuleana (responsibility)
please do so...main thing is please spread the word to everybody to be
there - please forward emails to me so i can compile list:

About the film:
THE FOREST FOR THE TREES: Judi Bari v. the FBI
In 1990, environmentalist and union organizer Judi Bari's car was bombed. Within three hours of the bombing, Bari was accused of transporting the exlposives that had nearly killed her. Still in the hospital, she was arrested and labeled a terrorist in the national media. THE FOREST FOR THE TREES follows Judi Bari's story, culminating in her civil suit against the FBI. At the heart of the film is Bari, a folk hero with an electrifying on-screen presence, and the legal battle against law enforcement that few believed she could win.
Made by Bernadine Mellis, the daughter of Judi Bari’s lead attorney Dennis Cunningham, the film follows the last major case of his career with a sense of both the beauty and the costs of a life of activism.
The current cut of the film has been screening in festivals and venues nationally, including at The Pacific Film Archive (this month), The Brooklyn Museum, The New York Underground Film Festival, the Ashland Independent Film Festival (where it won Best Short Documentary), and the Santa Cruz Film Festival (where it won the Audience Award for Best Short Documentary). The art auction is intended to raise funds for a professional sound mix and distribution costs.

# Aug 22,23,24 BEGINNER CLASS 6:30-8pm INTERMEDIATE CLASS 8-9:30pm
One consecutive Monday Tuesday and Wednesday in August.
Intermediate students continue on to perform on Thursday evening from 5:30-8pm at the Ferry Building.
The last chance to take a hoop intensive before Burning Man! Monday's class focuses on torso and arms, Tuesday class focuses on legs and floorwork, Wednesday's class focuses on off body moves. There will be special attention given to micromovements of the body, working with the downbeat, freeing the head, working planes, playing to the audience and infusing your dance with emotion. Guidance for performance given throughout class. Intermediate level class will recieve more challenging exercises and moves and must have taken an intensive previously. The intermediate class will include more discussion of performance, stage presence, costuming and creating a cohesive show.
Both classes emphasize poise, elegance, grace, power and originality in creating your hoopdance. The first class also works on learning basic "tricks", the intermediate class starts using those moves in a full dance context which uses each move on every angle, while exploring alternating body height and body angles while doing every move. The intermediate class also covers advanced moves and combinations.
Each evening will have a jam circle to close. Fantastic music will propel us to a new level! Beginner level class is $75 for three night series of classes, 4.5 hours total time. Intermediate level class is $85 for 4.5 hours class and a 2.5 hour live performance lab. Enrollment preference given to those who register for entire series as this creates the "intensive hoop bootcamp" experience. Class size limited to 11 students per class.
Pre-registration required at http://www.HoopGirl.com Go to "Buy Now" link and register in online store. Space is *very* limited and sells out every month for the beginner class. Don't miss out! Christabel is now teaching in San Francisco only once a month. Danzhaus is located at the corner of Cesar Chavez and Connecticut. Directions can be obtained at http://www.danzhaus.com Please arrive early or promptly on time.

# Sun Aug 28 5pm Hello friends of TreeSpirit,
Photographer Jack Gescheidt here, with another TreeSpirit photo shoot scheduled for 5pm, Sunday August 28th (3 Sundays from this weekend's) — in the city of San Francisco!
Two stunning Giant Sequoias watch over a small park @ 25th & Harrison, in the outer Mission, just a few blocks in from Cesar Chavez/Army St.
Look at the jpegs attached to this email to see if these little giants call to you. All ages and sizes of human are welcome to be photographed connecting with these creatures. The only requirements are playfulness, adventurousness and your open heart.
Save the date on your calendars and I'll have more detailed information the week of August 22nd before the shoot.
This photo event will consist of 20-100 or more men & women, so there is a place for both the mild-mannered ground-dwellers at the bases of the sequoias AND courageous tree climbers (up to about 120 feet). Feel free to pass this email invitation to your friends.
As always, each participant will be given a print from the shoot and asked to sign a photo release so the final image can be used in The TreeSpiritProject, incl. fine art prints and website: http://www.TreeSpiritProject.com.
yours in love with the trees, Jack

WEDNESDAY AUGUST 31 6pm- right after sunset
DEEP END CAMP Address: Catharsis and 9 oclock
I have booked the Deep End Camp for a major international frenzy of

go-ers are super excited to see all that hula hooping has to offer so
please join us and come play! Come show off, come share your moves,
come in your finest costume, come naked, just at least come and
partake in this mega meeting of hoopers!
ALSO...
I will be teaching two community classes at Deep End as well -- come
play... multilevel, all abilities... hopefully will be co-facilitated
by some amazing fellow hoopers if there are many many people who show
up.
DATES: Wednesday August 31 and Thursday September 1
TIME: from 2-3.
Kirstin Slye will be teaching poi classes right before me from 1-2 as
well, so come spend a whole afternoon with us if you like!

# Kai Eckhardt, Jon Fishman, Julia Butterfly Hill Fri Sep 2 9:00 pm $22
Featuring the collaboration of world class musicians, performers, and artists, The Village represented by Kai Eckhardt on bass, Jon Fishman on drums, Julia Butterfly Hill performing spoken word, and many very special guests. Born in Germany, raised in West Africa, Eckhardt's passionate dedication to the study of bass started at age 15, and has continued to grow through graduating Berklee College of Music with honors, teaching music, recording and performing with artists including Bob Moses, the John McLauglin trio & Zakir Hussein, and since 2000, has toured extensively with Garaj Mahal.
The original drummer for Phish, (as well as the inspiration for the band's name), Jon Fishman's passion for the drums started at an early age in Syracuse, NY. He spent twenty amazing years touring with this generation's most beloved jam band, and is now experimenting with his own side projects. Fishman is known for going as far as playing a vacuum cleaner to get his desired sound, and for his intricate and explosive rhythms.
Most known for living in Luna, an ancient redwood, for two years, and thus bringing the battle for Headwaters forest to the attention of national and international media, Julia Butterfly Hill now tours on behalf of the Circle of Life foundation, dedicated to education, youth programs, and tools for sustainable living.
Other guests include keyboardist Kit Walker (Pagan Love Orchestra, Kundalini Boombox,), West African talking drummer Rasaki (King Sunny Ade), and Indian Kathak dancers Kaveri and Mansi.

# September 2-5th, 2005 Eco - Defense Rendezvous
Camp with us along the Wenatchee River!
Rainforest Action Network - Greenpeace - Earth First!
Join us in a forest east of the Cascades for labor day weekend! Bring
all your musician friends for some wild sounds around the campfire.
There will also be many workshops and trainings: tree-climbing,
self-defense, edible and herbal plant walks, gorilla theater, radical
cheerleading, map and compass, timber monitoring, non-violence, gender
dynamics and much more. (Note: if you attend these workshops you’ll be
considered trained and ready to work on Greenpeace, RAN, EF! campaigns.)
About the forest: Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest in Washington State
approved a plan to log 2,500 acres of federal lands that were burned by
the Fischer Fire in August of 2004. The plan calls for logging in
old-growth forest reserves, and for building or re-building over 15
miles of road. So lawsuits have been filed and loggers are logging as
fast as possible to ensure the courts have no control over the hauling
of 4,000 log trucks of fire adapted forests. It's called an "Economic
Emergency." Details about the lawsuit

# 9/9 John Trudell, acclaimed Native American poet, recording artist, actor, and activist will appear in San Francisco September 9 at the Women's Building.
Trudell reads poetry and speaks as part of a fundraiser for the Buffalo Field Campaign (BFC)--the only group working in the field every day to stop the slaughter and harassment of Yellowstone's wild buffalo.
September 9. 7 to 9 pm $15 more info (415) 637-1855.
Woman's Building Auditorium
3543 18th St., San Francisco
http://www.womensbuilding.org
The Buffalo Field Campaign (BFC) works in the field to stop the slaughter and harassment of some of the last herds of wild buffalo. Volunteers from around the world defend buffalo on their traditional winter habitat in the Yellowstone area, and advocate for their protection. BFC's daily patrols stand with the buffalo on the ground they choose to be on, and document every move made against them.
John Trudell is an acclaimed poet, national recording artist, actor and Native American activist whose international following reflects the universal language of his words, work and message. Trudell (Santee Sioux) was a spokesperson for the Indian of All Tribes occupation of Alcatraz Island from 1969 to 1971. He then worked with the American Indian Movement (AIM), serving as Chairman of AIM from 1973 to 1979.
In 1982, Trudell began recording his poetry to traditional Native music and in 1983 he released his debut album Tribal Voice on his own Peace Company label. Trudell then teamed up with the late legendary Kiowa guitarist Jesse Ed Davis. Together, they recorded three albums during the 1980's. The first of these, AKA Graffiti Man, was released in 1986 and dubbed the best album of the year by Bob Dylan. AKA Graffiti Man served early notice of Trudell's singular ability to express fundamental truths through a unique mix of poetry, Native music, blues and rock. His latest CD, Bone Days, was executive produced by Aademy Award winning actress Angelina Jolie and released on the Daemon Records label in 2002. In addition to his music career, Trudell has played roles in a number of feature films, including Thunderheart and Smoke Signals. He most recently played Coyote in Hallmark's made for television movie, Dreamkeeper.
