COMMONWEALTH CLUB
Lewis Schiff
The Middle Class Millionaire

Lewis Schiff reveals original research about current American millionaires who have earned rather than inherited their wealth. He estimates 6 million U.S. households have a self-made net worth over $1 million. The research compares attitudes, values and social contributions of the traditional middle class to those of the "middle-class millionaire." Schiff also examines the broader societal impact this group has. Please note: This event will take place at the Commonwealth Club, next door to Stacey’s at 595 Market Street, 2nd Floor. Admission is $8 for members,  $15 for non-members. Check-in is at 5:30 pm. For reservations and information, please call 415-597-6705.

Marwan Muasher
The Arab Center

Is there any hope for moderate voices in the Arab world?

Please note: This event will take place at the Commonwealth Club, next door to Stacey’s at 595 Market Street, 2nd Floor. Admission is $12 for members,  $18 for non-members. Check-in is at 5:30 pm.

EVOLUTION OF A WRITER

David Wroblewski
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle

Few debut novelists enjoy the kind of prepublication publicity and glowing reviews as David Wroblewski has received. Wroblewski’s riveting saga of an American family captures the deep and ancient alliance between humans and dogs, and the power of fate through one boy's epic journey into the wild. Richard Russo said, “David Wroblewski’s got storytelling talent to burn and a big, generous heart to go with it.” Please join us as Mr. Wroblewski reads from his remarkable novel and discusses his writing process.

COMMONWEALTH CLUB
David Boaz
The Politics of Freedom

David Boaz, a key figure in the libertarian movement, surveys what he sees as the threats to freedom from the Bush administration and the current presidential candidates. Though he is frustrated with many of the candidates' positions, he remains optimistic about the future of civil and economic liberties. However, he says that the future of freedom requires that Americans devote considerable effort to preserving and protecting these rights. Please note: This event will take place at the Commonwealth Club, next door to Stacey’s at 595 Market Street, 2nd Floor. Admission is $12 for members,  $18 for non-members. Check-in is at 5:30 pm.

COMMONWEALTH CLUB/INFORUM
Peter Gosselin and Panel
High Wire

Recent expert prognosis for the overall economy is not  good. Housing bust, credit crunch, unemployment and high commodity prices (oil anyone?) are familiar faces in the news, and they all lead up to the most dreaded word of all—"recession." Unemployed? Self-employed? A small business owner? A family just trying to survive? Some believe that no one may be safe this time around. With economic worries mounting, we talk to the experts to find out how to survive these trying times. Please note: This event will take place at the Commonwealth Club, next door to Stacey’s at 595 Market Street, 2nd Floor. Admission is $12 for members,  $20 for non-members. Check-in is at 6:00 pm. For reservations and information, please call 415-597-6705.

Russell Targ
Do You See What I See?

Visually impaired physicist Russell Targ pioneered research in lasers and optics. His work in "remote viewing," sponsored by NASA and the CIA, has recently been declassified and dubbed by the media as "America's psychic spy program." Targ presents anecdotes about his life and his experiences with some of the 20th century's leading figures—including Ayn Rand, Alan Greenspan, Alan Alda, as well as Targ's brother-in-law, world chess champion Bobby Fischer. Please note: This event will take place at the Commonwealth Club, next door to Stacey’s at 595 Market Street, 2nd Floor. Admission is free for members,  $15 for non-members. Check-in is at 11:30 am.

COMMONWEALTH CLUB
Steve Levine
Putin's Labyrinth

Russia's rich oil reserves are helping the country regain prominence. Under Vladimir Putin and his sucessor, Dmitry Medvedev, nationalism has grown as well. Is there a return to Soviet-era systems and beliefs? Or has the nation moved into a different paradigm? LeVine says the country is stained by a "culture of death," from assassinations of state critics to possible Kremlin indifference in hostage crises. Please note: This event will take place at the Commonwealth Club, next door to Stacey’s at 595 Market Street, 2nd Floor. Admission is free for members,  $18 for non-members. Check-in is at 5:30 pm. For reservations and information, please call 415-597-6705.
