Haven't heard from my friends in Colorado yet.
Only learned in the last few hours about what happened last night at the movies in Lakewood. I haven't been able to confirm or deny my friends' safety. I likely know some of the victims. Kind of numb sitting here hoping for the best, thinking gentle thoughts for the families of the slain. :(

Contemplative Neuroscience
There's quite a bit of research going on by renowned neuroscientists into Social Anxiety Disorders, Depression, etc. I am really excited that the friends/geeks I know who suffer from such are getting a science-based cure that is easy, cost affective (free) and has such a high return on investment.…

Fireworks - invasion at 3 am?
Every year around the Fourth, the fireworks start. Illegal, lit by children lacking in supervision and sense but so far we've been only mildly inconvenienced, until now. I am not the get up at 3 am or stay up till 3 am type of gal. They were so close, I thought someone had sent a bottle rocket through my closed window.…

Luke's Home Restored
Ezra Klein comes out as a Geek. Luke's home on Tatooine, or at least the set used to film it in Tunisia, has been restored by a group of fans headed by a Geek from Belgium. One more thing to add to my love of Geeks and their fan exploits, the Lars homestead has been saved. For more details, see TRMS - Best New Thing in the…

Invalid to Polar Bear to Svelte
How much real estate has your brain lost to fear? Cutting edge neuroscience suggests that each cut, bump, bruise, broken heart and disappointment act as redirectors of brain cell allocation/use. That pain in your back, limb, neck or big toe might not be what you think. It may be your brain sending a false alarm that needs…

Grain and Gluten Free Gingerbread Men
Feeling a little down that just a few Gluten Free pretzels and shortbreads (out of a box from Walmart, my mom - daughter's grandmother bought them to make sure she didn't feel left out at Thanksgiving) were enough to wreck havoc on my daughter's immune system. She's became ill on the way home from our beautiful…
