\*\* We are moving to heylo.com. Please join us there to sign up for any upcoming events (although you will still be able to sign up on Meetup for the next couple of months). \*\* We will be holding our monthly in-person Skeptics in the Pub event on the second Tuesday of every month. We are an informal group of scientific skeptics who promote critical thinking, reason, and empirical evidence, advocating for the scientific method to evaluate claims while opposing pseudoscience, superstition, and anecdotal evidence. We will get together for a social event to say hello to people we may have only met on-line, to reconnect with some long-time acquaintances, and to meet new people who may be interested in skepticism. We will not be having a presentation or a speaker, just a chance to sit down and have a meal and/or a beverage and a conversation with a pleasant group of fellow skeptics. (Monthly on-line Zoom meetings will continue as usual, on the third Friday of every month). Our previous venue, Prenup Pub, has closed, so we will meet this month at a **new location**, The Frog: A Firkin Pub, 4854 Yonge St, North York, ON M2N 5N2. Google Maps says it is about a 3-minute walk (200 m) from Sheppard-Yonge subway station, north of Sheppard, on the west side of Yonge. Food and beverages are available from the menu. Foods include a full menu from soups, salads, and appetizers to burgers, sandwiches, entrées and dessert. The beverage menu includes about16 different beers on tap, many bottled beers, ciders, seltzers, and coolers, as well as a selection of wines, various cocktails, and non-alcoholic drinks. When you arrive, just ask where the "Skeptics" are. We will probably be at the "Silly Walks" table. If you plan on joining us, please register so we can estimate the number of attendees.

**The event has been canceled.** *Note: this is a demonstration event only, you **will not** shoot you own images. However, if you bring your camera we can test it for compatibility with the studio lights.* Bondage elements can add an extra layer of emotion and artistry to your images. Sample images on the internet are however dominated by BDSM style shots that are often sexualized and emphasize the model being in distress. In this demonstration Rachel and I show ways to use bondage elements in an artistic way. We explore the types of accessories that work best in artistic images and the best way to photograph them. Our model is Rachel Adams, an internationally known fetish model with many years of experience in this genre.

In the year 2044, in the age of AI, a woman named Gabrielle (Seydoux) tries to purify her DNA by purging the inherited memories of her past lives. She (re)lives her life in 1910 Paris and 2014 Los Angeles, and as the procedure goes on, the lines between her worlds become blurred. These three timelines have a lot of connective tissue holding them together; certain symbols and motifs appear repeatedly, not to mention Mackay’s Louis, a figure whom Gabrielle seems drawn to in each lifetime. *The Beast / La Bête* can be streamed for free on Kanopy or the Criterion Channel. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime, AppleTV and YouTube.
