Right to Bear Arms

When American author Octavia Butler died in 2006, she was only 58. Even at her premature death, she was renowned as a science fiction and speculative fiction author, winning both Hugo and Nebula awards and the MacArthur fellowship (aka the MacArthur Genius Grant). Published in 1979, "Kindred" remains her most well-known and best-selling work. A story based on time travel and modeled on slave narratives, "Kindred" explores the dynamics and dilemmas of American antebellum slavery from the sensibility of a late 20th-century Black woman who is aware of its legacy in contemporary American society. *Goodreads summary* Dana, a modern Black woman, is celebrating her 26th birthday with her new husband when she is snatched abruptly from her home in California and transported to the antebellum South. Rufus, the white son of a plantation owner, is drowning, and Dana has been summoned to save him. Dana is drawn back repeatedly through time to the slave quarters, and each time the stay grows longer, more arduous, and more dangerous until it is uncertain whether or not Dana’s life will end, long before it has a chance to begin.

Whether you’re a passionate cook or just curious to learn, this is the perfect opportunity to **discover new flavors, share your culinary traditions, and make new friends** from around the world.

Dear All, Another weekend full of "Schienenersatzverkehr". For the non-German speakers, I can teach you how to pronounce the word. Anyway, we can still do a CFL trail. But we will change the scenery and go to a different corner of Luxembourg. This one goes from Kleinbettingen to Petange. It looks quite easy. It's just a bit longer than our last trails. I will look for a suitable place for our "obligatory" lunchbreak. Starting point: Kleinbettingen Train Station Destination: Petange Train Station Public transport: L50 from Luxembourg Gare Routière at 10:30 to Kleinbettingen. We leave at the last station of that bus. We will frequent trains back from Petange to Luxembourg. Car: there is parking at both train stations. BUT the bus between Petange and Kleinbettingen is every 2h. I suggest coordinating between each other and organising some carpooling. Any questions? Hope to see you in large numbers on Sunday Jörg Disclaimer: The hike is at your own risk. Know your limits. Come prepared (water, food, shoes...). Don't hesitate to ask any questions.

Hi, My living room will be open this **Sunday at 14:00** for a small, casual get-together. The idea is just to meet some fellow music-makers. No agendas, no prepared performances — just a chance to have a drink, chat and maybe play a few things together if we feel like it. **The Setup** * I’ll have some coffee, tea, water and small snacks. * There will be an e-piano, classical guitars, and an electric guitar with a basic amp here if anyone wants to use them. * Feel free to bring your own instrument if it’s easy to carry, but don’t feel like you have to. **The Details** * **Small Group:** Just **6 people** max so we can fit in fine. * **RSVP:** Please let me know by **Saturday at 19:00** if you can make it. * **Location:** I’ll message the address to the people joining me once the RSVPs close, but you can see where it is approximately on the map. * If it's difficult to get to that place, I could pick up from somewhere nearby before the start of the event. Looking forward!

Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships? Are you burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival, while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

We may pick a specific topic and post in advance or may discuss current events and various ad hoc topics . We would love to spend time hanging out and getting to know one another.
