The 2009 AMC will draw strength from our converging movements to face the challenges and opportunities of our current moment.

SUMMARY:Calgary Critical Mass Bike Ride — August
DESCRIPTION: [Full details at http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/2976152/ ] On the last Friday of every month\, cyclists around the world gather to ride the streets together to assert the rights of non-automotive traffic to use the streets.
      
      The ride gathers at the plaza starting at 5:30. We usually head out closer to 6 for a ride that usually goes for half an hour to an hour. The route of the ride can be different every month\, usually just made up along the way.
      
      Newcomers are always welcome.
      
      Please bring noisemakers - whistles\, bells\, etc.
      
      Look for folks just hanging out with their bicycle in the plaza when you arrive. Please don't hesitate to ask someone: "hey\, are you here for critical mass?"
      
      (Yes\, the rides go on all year - regardless of weather.)

SUMMARY:Evolution: A Tangled Bank • Burning Man 2009
DESCRIPTION: [Full details at http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/1089142/ ] 
       In 2009\, the Burning Man will rise above a “tangled bank” consisting of irregular wooden triangles. No two elements of this organic composition will be quite the same\; together they’ll create what’s best described as a chaotic truss. At night the tangled bank will come alive with luminous life forms scratching\, crawling and slithering their way through it. This space will also house a pond known as the Gene Pool. Strange Ur-creatures will peep outward from the surface of this primal soup. The central tree supporting Burning Man\, beribboned with a double helix\, will exist in flux: switching on and switching off\, changing colors unexpectedly.

SUMMARY:2010 Creating Change Conference
DESCRIPTION: [Full details at http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/2512128/ ] Creating Change \, the 22nd National Conference on LGBT Equality is the annual National Grassroots Organizing and Skills Building Lesbian\, Gay\, Bisexual\, Transgender Conference sponsored by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force .
      
      Each year the conference is held in a different region of the United States\, attracting at least 2\,000 to 3\,000 attendees from all over the country and is considered a unique environment where activists and leaders come together from diverse places and backgrounds to create a unique community that is both strengthening and inspiring to the participants.  Since 1988\, Creating Change has been the opportunity for thousands of committed people to develop and hone their skills\, celebrate victories\, build community\, and to be inspired by visionaries of our LGBT movement and other movements for justice and equality.
      
      The primary goal of the Creating Change Conference is to build political power from the ground up to secure our overarching goal of full equality\, social justice and dignity for lesbian\, gay\, bisexual and transgender people in the United States.  Over the five days of the Creating Change Conference the conference program presents a dozen day-long institutes\, sophisticated trainings in the Academy for Leadership and Action\, approximately 130 workshops and caucus sessions\, keynote plenary sessions\, film screenings\, meetings\, receptions\, social events\, and a multitude of opportunities for attendees to meet and learn from each other.
      
       --------------------- 
      And while there please join  BiNet USA and other Bisexual\, Fluid\, Pansexual and allied Groups and Activists at the Bisexual Caucus at the 2010 Creating Change Conference .  
      
      The Plenary sessions provide a common meeting ground for the conference to explore current issues in the LGBT community and our Community will be tabling as well as giving a variety of presentations. 
      
      Please join us as we meet to discuss issues of importance to us as a Community\, interact and introduce ourselves to members of the greater LGBT Community and all gather to work together on issues of importance to us as a whole.
      
       --------------------- 
       Creating Change is a wonderful (as well as a useful & informative) not to be missed experience that EVERYONE should try to attend at least once.
