 just way. With: Maya Wiley, Center for Social Inclusion; Colette Pichon

 Blueprint for Truth: The Architecture of Destruction / a presentation by 
 Richard Gage, AIA, Wednesday, October 24, 2007, 7:00 PM\nMt. Diablo Peace & 
 Justice Center,\n55 Eckley Lane, Walnut Creek\n\nRichard Gage, AIA is the 
 founding member of ae911Truth.org. He has been a practicing architect for 
 20 years and has worked on most types of building construction including 
 numerous fire-proofed steel-framed buildings. He became interested in the 
 9/11 WTC high-rise “collapses” after hearing the startling conclusions 
 of a reluctant 9/11 researcher, David Ray Griffin, on the radio in 2006, 
 which launched his own unyielding quest for 9/11 Truth. Richard will 
 present a slide show which provides evidence that the three World Trade 
 Center buildings were felled by controlled demolition. The pieces of 
 evidence include expert corroboration, foreknowledge of collapse, whistle 
 blowers, government documentation and video documentation. When Richard 
 gave this presentation at the Grand Lake Theater on September 11, 2007, he 
 was given a standing ovation by the overflow crowd.\nPeace is

 banners, chairs, food, educational material, and created a space for public 
 dialogue on key issues.\n    The first time was on Halloween and I wore a 
 costume, it was scary to do it, all by myself.  This year I think it would 
 be a good idea to wear V for Vendetta masks- or Bush/Cheney masks and pass 
 out 9/11 materials for Nov 1st and World Peace Week- we should have a good 
 supply, in time for the October 27th rally.  Everyone can participate in 
 Trick or Truth wherever you may be on Halloween...\n    At Lytton we will 
 pass things out and also-\n\n    We ask the public three questions and 
 write down their responses-\n\n    What do you think/feel about the events 
 of September 11th and the U.S. government's response?\n\n    How could we

 Last Man Out- William Rodriguez - 9/11 Hero World Tour, November 1, 2007, 7 
 pm, Grand Lake Theater, 3200 Grand Avenue, Oakland\n\nWilliam Rodriguez\n 
 \nA True Hero on 9/11\nand ever since then...\nWith Special Guests- Peter 
 Dale Scott, author of The Road to 9/11- Wealth, Empire, and the Future of 
 America and Cindy Sheehan\n\nDeclared a hero for saving numerous lives at 
 ground zero, William Rodriguez was a janitor on duty the morning of 9/11 
 who heard and felt explosions rock the basement sublevels of the North 
 Tower before the jetliner struck the top floors. His testimony was omitted 
 from the 9/11 Commission Report.\n\nAt great risk to his own life, William 
 reentered the towers three times after the initial impacts and is believed 
 to be the last person to exit the North Tower alive, surviving the 
 building’s collapse by diving beneath a fire truck. After receiving 
 medical attention at the WTC site for his injuries, he spent the rest of 
 the day aiding in the rescue efforts as a volunteer, and at dawn the next 
 day he was back to help rescue survivors.\n\nIn addition to being a 
 spokesperson for the New York City first responders, William is also active 
 in the movement for immigrant rights. He was a major force behind the 
 campaign to encourage undocumented immigrant survivors and relatives of 
 victims to come forward for help without fear of deportation. The group 
 also raised funds for scholarships for children of immigrants killed or 
 maimed in the attacks.\n\nHis firsthand account of his experiences that day 
 challenges the official narrative, which claims that the towers' collapse 
 had nothing to do with explosives. He has spoken throughout the world to 
 share his story and to lobby for a genuine international inquiry into the 
 events of 9/11--on behalf of those who died, the survivors, those whose 
 health was compromised, and all who have suffered from bad policy decisions 
 that were based on the official narrative of 9/11.\n\nMeet a real hero. 
 Hear his story. Followed by a reception for William and local heroes for 
 9/11 Truth,\nImpeachment, Peace, and Justice. Now is the time for courage.

 Week, November 5- November 11th (Guys Fawkes Day through Veterans Day) 
 Unmask State Sponsored Terrorism\nWe declare World Peace Week from November 
 5th through November 11th to celebrate Guy Fawkes Day and Veterans Day. 
 During this week, let’s awaken people to how governments use false flag 
 terror to serve imperial agendas. November 5th is Guy Fawkes Day. Even now, 
 few understand the original Gunpowder Plot: Guy Fawkes was framed in a 
 bogus “Catholic terrorist plot” to blow up the King and the Parliament. 
 The real plot was royally successful: to invent a pretext for war with 
 Catholic Spain. This fraud, which rallied popular opinion for a war with 
 Spain, was the foundation of the British empire.\n\nPlease see these
