Coffee & Bitcoin - Fairfax
**[Bitcoin District](https://bitcoindistrict.org/)** is a community of Bitcoiners living & working in the greater DMV metro area. Join us for a "Coffee & Bitcoin" meetup where we'll talk about what's happening in the world of Bitcoin.
We highly encourage anyone who is new to Bitcoin or just a little curious to come and ask questions... don't be shy!
đ Ample parking at the shopping center
đđ METRO + Bus: Vienna/Fairfax-GMU (orange line) + bus to Fairfax Blvd & Eaton Pl stop
Be sure to check out the special [Bitcoin Blend](https://www.compasscoffee.com/products/bitcoin-blend), an El Salvador single-origin roast from our host [Compass Coffee](https://www.compasscoffee.com/). You can order from their website and you can even pay in Bitcoin!
**Our events are Bitcoin focused and we generally avoid discussing other coins & tokens. Nothing discussed during this meetup is financial advice. Always do your own research.**
"After Dark - A Valentine's Day Spectacular" Burlesque Show
Valentine's Day is the perfect day for this sexy but tasteful show for this singles group! As a lover of burlesque, I've attended a few of their performances and am always thoroughly entertained. Feel free to invite a plus one.
"Angie and her husband, Brian Newman, have brought their show *After Dark* to clubs across the country, from The Box in New York City to the NoMad Library in Las Vegas. **The duo blends Brianâs talents as a band leader and trumpet player and Angieâs show-stopping burlesque troupe** into a night fit for the Rat Pack. Past guest performers include Lady Gaga, Kelsea Ballerini, Ashanti, and The Doorsâ Robby Krieger."
Tickets are **$55.30** per person including taxes and fees, and I can get up to 8 tickets for our group to ensure we are sitting together. If we have enough people interested, and I secure your payment early, I should be able to add an additional table. **Your reservation will not be secure until I receive your $, and no tickets will be purchased until then. Tickets sell out fast. It is NOT too early to reserve.** As soon as you are sure that you can attend, please either send your payment t**hrough Zelle (240 446-8744) or Venmo (@Susan-Timm-11).**
While the Birchmere does sell food and drinks, we can do better at RT's. I suggest we park at the Birchmere and walk across the street to RT's at 5:30 pm for dinner. That will give us a leisurely time for our meal prior to the show. It makes seating together much simpler if we arrive as a group. RT's is the only creole restaurant in town that I am aware of, so if you like New Orleans style food, you can find it here. If creole is not your thing, they do offer other options.
[MENU](https://www.rtsrestaurant.net/menu-3/)
Word to the wise, it is easiest to back into your parking space at the Birchmere. You'll appreciate this when the show let's out.
Network of Light - Valentines Celebration - potluck and music
NETWORK OF LIGHT
HEART TO HEART CELEBRATION
VALENTINE'S DAY
Saturday February 14, 2026
Dearest Friends,
From my heart to your heart, you are so wonderful! Please know that I adore you. It has been my greatest pleasure to know God and be guided to create the Network of Light in 1979. And I have loved all my moments with you.
At 87 years young, it is extremely hard for me to consider leaving you to go to a community living situation. That is why it has been almost impossible to get this Valentine's Day invitation out to you.
The Network of Light is coming up on our 47th Anniversary!!! And yes indeed, we are once again celebrating Valentine's Day. Please do join us Saturday, February 14th.
A Very Special Thanks to
Tracy Trisko - Board member and my right hand for
26 years
Bruce McBarnette - Light Giver and
Coordinator of Sukyo Mahikari
Padma Foye- Food and Kitchen Queen
Phil Jones - Our Master Fire Builder and Board
member
I so very much appreciate everyone who has stepped forward as part of the Network of Light team and helped over all these years.
With Love, Light, and Good Will to each of you!
Lakshmi
5:00 pm - Time to Meet and Greet New and Old Friends
5:30 pm - Meditation and Heart to Heart Sharing led by Lakshmi
Let's share Heart-to-Heart what is deeply true in us. Let's love each other more and more.
7:00 pm - Shared Food Dinner
Please bring your favorite dinner dish to serve 8 guests
8:00 pm - Dancing and heart-filled/body moving music
John Wubbenhorst (flutes, keyboards) and Tom Teasley (percussion) will celebrate the Network of Light with love and joy. Tom and John are truly world musicians having participated in many traditions east and west. Tom has toured the Mideast with the US State Department. John has spent many years in India studying with many masters, including the bansuri mater Hariprasad Chaurasia. Tom and John often improvise and play a unique ecletic brand of music that is captivating and healing. Because both Tom and John both have a world music vocabulary, their mustic canoot be defined, except for the pure joy please experience when they play.
Come dance and listen to these world class musicians.
"I am always thankful to music for leading deep into the heart and many spiritual adventures. When I release a record or record some music, I want it to reflect the ecstatic state of being I've felt with my music and spiritual masters. If that feeling is not there, then all the technique and musical sophistication mean nothing. And if that magic is there, even the playing of a few notes can say so much. This journey is not over!"
John Wubbenhorst
Tom Teasley is not just a percussionist - he's a one-man global orchestra. Renowned for his innovative approach to rhythm and sound, Tom fuses jazz, world music and contemporary influences into electrifying performances that defy borders. His music is a living conversation between ancient traditions and cutting-edge improvisation, captivating audiences with a sound that is as adventurous as it is deeply rooted.
Free Light Sessions - Bruce McBarnette and Members of Sukyo Mahikari will be offering free 10 minute individual light sessions from 5 pm to 10 pm.
Many people find the light to be rejuvenating, relaxing, and energizing. Receiving light regularly can dramatically transform your life.

A Poetry Workshop
Hey Poetry Lovers!
This group is on a roll. Hereâs the gist:
We meet at the **Capital One Café in Chinatown** from **12pm - 2pm** every other week.
For enrichment, we start by reading and reflecting on a **âpublished poemâ**, suggested by someone in the group. No advance preparation is necessary. But feel free to check out some of the poems weâve read [here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSyE_wCLQCPHRrKmN5F9tOIeeRQUZESxjRXGVBoCF2uU8Gm0_d0uECiCBCQXEy6ksxfsBOhtRIOpW3T/pubhtml?gid=0&single=true&widget=true&headers=false%22%3E%3C/iframe%3E). Or submit suggestions for future meetings [here](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSexGc2Z2Kp6bZW0D3_hfJ7NUUkfNHf7TXX-43FglCeBd9EF2Q/viewform?usp=send_form).
Next, we **share our work and offer feedback**. Depending on attendance, everyone gets \~10 minutes to use as they like. (No need to share, though; youâre welcome to come even if you prefer just to listen.)
We maintain a **Discord server** to help share our work and communicate outside our bi-weekly meet-ups. If you havenât used Discord before, take a moment to download it and create an account before arriving. When we meet you on Saturday, we will add you to our server, the âDC Poetry Workshopâ, and can help you navigate the app if you have questions.
Finally, if you plan on sharing a poem, consider how you will do so. Some options include:
* Print 5-10 copies to distribute in person
* Take and share screenshots in the Discord chat.
* Copy the poem into a google doc, change sharing settings to âanyone with linkâ, and copy the google doc link into the Discord chat.
Most importantly, weâre excited to meet you!
Catch you on Saturday,
Diego / Ian / Cayden / Nate / Otasha / Lia / An

In **Gaia Project** fourteen different factions live on seven different kinds of planets, each faction being bound to their own home planets. To develop and grow, they must terraform neighboring planets into their home environments in competition with the other groups. All factions can improve their skills in six different areas of development: Terraforming, Navigation, Artificial Intelligence, Gaiaforming, Economy, Research; leading to advanced technology and special bonuses. To do all of that, each group has special skills and abilities.

Lorca's LA CASA DE BERNARDA ALBA (The House of Bernarda Alba)
Experience GALA's contemporary staging of the modern classic ***La casa de Bernarda Alba (The House of Bernarda Alba)*** by Spanish playwright Federico GarcĂa Lorca. Directed by JosĂ© Zayas and with original music by Koki Lortkipanidze, the play explores themes of female oppression, sexual repression, and the conflict between tradition and modernity, all universal topics that resonate with audiences today.
GarcĂa Lorcaâs ***The House of Bernarda Alba*** brims with tension, desire, and rebellion as five sisters are forced into strict mourning for their father under the iron rule of their mother, Bernarda. In this electrifying new production, passions simmer behind closed doors, secrets spark dangerous rivalries, and the pressure of a house built on control threatens to explode. This contemporary staging infuses Lorcaâs classic with a sensuous, modern pulse and a dark Gothic mystery, illuminating why Bernarda Alba remains as urgent and thrilling today as ever.
CAST: Luz NicolĂĄs as Bernarda, Evelyn Rosario Vega as Poncia, MarĂa Coral as Adela, MarĂa del Mar RodrĂguez as Angustias, Giselle GonzĂĄlez as Martirio, Anna MalavĂ© as Magdalena, Alicia Kaplan an as MarĂa Josefa, and Ixchel as Amelia.
PERFORMANCES: February 5 through March 1, 2026. The production is presented in Spanish with English surtitles, Thursdays through Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 2 pm.
Community Night is Thursday, Feberuary 5 at 8 pm.
Press Night and Noche de GALA, which includes a post-performance reception with the creative team and cast, is Saturday, February 7 at 8 pm.
TICKETS: $50 Premium Center, $45 Orchestra Standard, $35 Orchestra Value, and $25 Balcony Value; $35 Seniors (65+), Military, Teachers, and Groups (10+); $25 25 and Under; Community Night $20; and Noche de GALA: Chosen ticket price + $5 (per person). **[GET TICKETS](https://ci.ovationtix.com/35923/production/1245608)**
This production is made possible with the generous support from the Embassy of Spain in Washington, DC, Spain Arts & Culture, and of our Honorary Producers Circle for The House of Bernarda Alba that includes Janet Farrell, Patricia Sosa, and Wanda BĂĄez.

One way to make it more difficult for them them to impose a digital currency on us is to use cash.
Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC)
With Digital Currency they can:
Have a complete government dossier on every detail of your life.
Use your purchase history to maintain a detailed social credit score for every person.
Provide tax breaks to corporations who hire people with admirable social credit scores.
Only grant government contracts to corporations with employees with admirable social credit scores.
Adjust health insurance premiums to incentivize people to develop admirable social credit scores.
Connect your social credit score with a digital ID to encourage you to look at only approved web sites when surfing the internet. Viewing conspiracy web sites could lower your Social Credit Score and make it difficult to get a job.
With their electronic chain around your neck, they can control where, when, how you travel, what food you are allowed to buy etc. They will love the power to only allow you to use your digital money only where they want you to shop and allow you to buy only what they prefer you to buy.
Require you to have to have a license to use your money. They will call it a Digital Currency License.
Require you to take any vaccine they want you to take to maintain your digital currency license.
Tax you in ways we have not even imagined.
Adjust your income tax rate based on your social credit score.
Use AI to increase your income tax rate if you eat too many hamburgers because they will tell you eating too many hamburgers will increase global warming. This is just one example of many behaviors they might not approve of.
Adjust individual prices for different individuals. They will be able to make you pay more per pound for hamburger if you purchased too much red meat during the past 30 days.
Require you to buy so many pounds of soy burger for every pound of hamburger to save the planet and increase the profits for the soy burger manufacturers.
Turn off the digital money of people they consider to be spreading misinformation.
Turn off the digital money of people they consider to be dangerous conspiracy theorists.
Turn off your money at 8 PM if they want a curfew at 8 PM
Turn off your money in another state if they do not want you to drive to another state without permission.
Turn off your money when buying guns or ammo if they do not want you to buy guns or ammo.
Turn off your digital money more than three miles away from your home if they want you to stay within three miles of your home during the next epidemic.
Etc. etc. etc.
From the standpoint of the government, one beauty of digital money is that your money is one âstate emergencyâ away from being the governmentâs money. All they have to do is to take your digital money out of your Central Bank Digital Account for the âgood of allâ. It is not as easy for them to do this with physical cash, gold, stocks, or silver etc.
Anything they **can** do, they will do.
The essence of slavery is control. Digital Currency will enable them to make you, their slave.
