Nukes, No WarsAs we mark the 63rd anniversaries, on August 6th and 9th, of the U.S. atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, it's time to realize that we've been pushing our luck. The first and only nuclear weapons to be used in war (so far) destroyed two cities, killing more than 200,000 people by the end of 1945. The radiation from these two nuclear bombs continues to cause cancers, mutations and birth defects that are still being documented today.

The following information may be useful
in understanding where the LA Social Forum comes from and what it could become.
What is a Social Forum?
The World Social Forum (Wiki) and its local and regional offspring are open meeting spaces where progressive social movements, networks, non-profits and other civil society organizations get together to pursue their thinking, debate ideas, formulate strategies and proposals, share experiences, and network for effective action. The forums bring together people who want to build a more peaceful, sustainable, and participatory world. They are characterized by plurality and diversity; they are nongovernmental and nonpartisan. A social forum is what you make it — a meeting place, a debating forum, an exchange of ideas and solutions, a theater stage, a celebration, a festival, a bazaar — it can be any or all of these.
About 20,000 people attended the first World Social Forum in January 2001 in Porto Alegre, Brazil. The event, which has been held each year since then, drew 150,000 in 2005. The sixth WSF was “polycentric,” held in three locations: Caracas, Venezuela; Bamako, Mali; and Karachi, Pakistan. The next WSF is being planned for Nairobi, Kenya in January 2007.
The World Social Forum was created to counter the influence and purposes of the World Economic Forum (Wiki), an annual meeting of top business and government leaders “committed to improving the state of the world by engaging leaders in partnerships to shape global, regional and industry agendas.

This public notice does not appear on the LAUSD Master Calendar, but on an
ancillary website:
www.laschools.org.
Also, a search of public notices on the LAUSD Website reveals a Google search of several different notices scattered throughout various websites.
Why is there no centralized repository of public notices on the LAUSD website?
In 1998, an Italian Supreme Court decision overturned a rape conviction because the victim wore jeans. People all over the world were outraged. Wearing jeans became an international symbol of protest against erroneous and destructive attitudes about sexual assault.
Last year, on Denim Day an unprecedented 300,000 people signed up to wear jeans in support of raising awareness about the need to end sexual violence. This year we aim to at least double that amount.
This day in the schools, offices and streets of Los Angeles County we unite against rape of girls, women, boys and men. We stand in support of survivors. We break the silence to end sexual violence.
