NYC Expatriate Happy Hour
A new, semi-regular happy hour for people who lament how hard it is to
find a decent "Fried Egg and Cheese on a Roll" in this town! What is
with these microwaved eggs?!
All NYC expats and their friends are welcome.
The first NYC Expat HH, on June 4th, was much fun. Join us if you are
in town, or tell your friends to join us if you are not in SF.
Every other Thursday from July 2nd to July 30th.
That means: July 2, July 16, July 30
Then we decide if we want to stay bi-weekly, or switch to monthly.
Maybe we'll decide to change venues. Stay tuned for updated info!

DODOCALYPSE!
Proudly presented by Monticello and Coalition of the Chilling
Friday, July 3rd
9pm - 2am
...the third Dodocalypse etched the silhouettes of kinetic deviants
into the shadows of time,
teleporting electronic lifetimes through plasma galaxies into the
eternity of the universe...
the fourth Dodocalypse would tear the continuum even further,
fracturing their dimension and hurtling these hungry souls backwards
through the lens of darkness...
Monticello and Coalition of the Chilling bring you round four in the
fight to decimate the dance floor and bring down the house!
This party is a fundraiser for our airship the "D.M.A. Raphus Ineptus"
(aka. "The Dodo")
100% of the money collected at the door will go toward the
construction of our airship.
There will be a sliding cover from $5 up to whatever you wish to
donate toward our project.
The full budget for the project is roughly $15000. We've got about
$9000 so we're raising the rest through donations and fundraising
parties like this one.
Help us build the D.M.A. Raphus Ineptus and bring the mayhem all the
way to Black Rock City!!!

A good friend in our Community needs financial assistance in an
extremely tough time. Long time Burner, LampLighter, Temple Builder,
carpenter and all around great guy *Brandon Chamblee* has had 2
surgeries in as many months to remove brain tumors. Following surgery,
Brandon will have another long round of chemotherapy in his future.
This is a very difficult time for Brandon, his wife Hale, and all of
us who love him.
Since the first surgery, Brandon has been on some meds that make it
difficult to work in his field of carpentry. Brandon's wife, Hale, as
many of you know was very involved with Black Rock Arts Foundation
(BRAF) and Lamplighters for a number of years, before finding love and
chasing the dream of a life in the mountains of Colorado. Because they
both wanted to have careers that would allow them the flexibility to
pursue their dreams, Hale because a realtor in Colorado. Does anyone
need a vacation home in the Rocky Mountain State? The real estate
market has been slow and Hale’s income has suffered. To make matters
worse, the price of doctor’s visits, radiology, medicine, hospital
stays, chemotherapy, long drives to Denver, and many more things,
continue to plague the family budget. We’re asking for your help to
take some of the pressure off.
It gives us so much pride to recognize how this Community comes
together to make amazing things happen. If we can build a city out of
dust and return a pristine environment to the world, we can make a
huge difference in the lives of two people that have helped to make
this experience possible for us.
Thank you!
Kimba - Lamplighter Set-Up Manager
Snotto - Lamplighter Project Manager.

The Crucible's 9th Annual Fire Arts Festival
Jul 15 (Wed) at 8 PM - Jul 18 (Sat)
Fire Arts Arena
W. Grand Ave & Wake Avenue
Oakland, CA
The Crucible’s 9th Fire Arts Festival, a spectacular open-air
exhibition of astounding performances, fire sculpture and interactive
art, will light up the sky each evening from 8 PM to midnight at The
Crucible's NEW Fire Arts Arena in the freeway canyonlands of West
Oakland. In celebration of The Crucible’s 10th Anniversary, this
year’s celebration of creativity will be bigger and even more
extravagant than any ever – and yet more affordable. The
Crucible’s annual Fire Arts Festival is famous for showcasing the
largest collection of fire and light sculptures in the West Coast,
with four fire-filled nights of fun for everyone. The expansive new
location is nearly three times larger than last year, and will
accommodate even more and larger art installations, performance areas,
food and merchandise vendors than any other previous festival. The
10-acre new Fire Arts Arena is located in Oakland at the foot of the
Bay Bridge, off West Grand Avenue at Wake Avenue, near the Oakland
Army Base. Easily accessed and visible from all major freeways, the
new location offers large free parking areas for those who drive, and
free shuttles will run from West Oakland BART. This year’s featured
musical performance will be the world premiere of Dan Cantrell’s The
Rootabaga Opera, based on Carl Sandburg’s Rootabaga Stories. The
commissioning and production of this world premiere is made possible
by The Wallace Alexander Gerbode Foundation and The William and Flora
Hewlett Foundation Emerging Composers 2007 Initiative. In addition,
on the main stage each evening will be a variety of performances to
awe and amaze; from circus arts and fire performers to aerial
artistry. Visitors can stroll through ten acres of art; enjoy tasty
food and beverages, shopping at unique vendor booths, and listen to
some great music, all while exploring the world of fire and light.
Featuring amazing installations and gigantic sculptures by prominent
artists like Dan Das Mann and Karen Cusolito, Nate Smith Fire Vortex,
Omega Recoil, Kinetic Steam Works and many more, the Fire Arts
Festival is a blazing nexus of science, engineering and art.
