DESCRIPTION:THINK OUTSIDE THE BOMB CONFERENCE\nOctober 20-22\nUC Santa 
 Barbara\nSponsored by: Nuclear Age Peace Foundation\n\nApply now at - 
 http://www.thinkoutsidethebomb.org/youth-conference/sb/index.htm\n\nFrom 
 October 20-22, the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation will team up with various 
 partner NGOs to host the second “Think Outside the Bomb” conference at 
 the University of California, Santa Barbara. The conference will bring 
 together high school students, college students, recent college alumni, and 
 young non-profit professionals from throughout the western United States 
 for a series of participatory discussion panels, workshops, and skills 
 trainings on building a nuclear-free world.\n\nTravel vouchers are 
 available to out-of-town attendees. Lodging will be provided free of charge 
 for most participants.  Free food will be provided for all, throughout the 
 course of the weekend.\n\n\nThe threat of a nuclear holocaust is one of the 
 most urgent challenges facing our generation. In recent years, the crises 
 in Iran, Iraq, and North Korea have underscored the ongoing centrality of 
 nuclear weapons in the global political order. Yet, the greatest power to 
 lead the world toward nuclear disarmament rests right here, at home, where 
 the United States maintains a stockpile of over 10,000 nuclear weapons and 
 currently spends more money to develop new weapons of mass destruction than 
 any other nation.\n\nStopping the construction of new nuclear power plants, 
 ending the exploitation inherently wrought by the nuclear fuel cycle, and 
 achieving the demilitarization of our schools and communities are all 
 intimately connected with the cause of nuclear disarmament. Nuclear weapons 
 are not created in a vacuum. Nor will they be abolished in one.\n\nThe 
 “Think Outside the Bomb” conference will provide a backdrop for a rich 
 exchange of ideas between participants regarding nuclear issues. Attendees 
 will leave the conference buzzing with new insights, knowledge, and 
 inspiration, as well as an array of organizing resources and practical 
 hands-on skills to empower them to do the day-to-day work of creating a 
 more peaceful and secure planet.\n\nFor more information on the Think
