144 NICE TIMES by Lun Chape

G Living: Darker Cooler Side of Green – like the material at this site, or at least some of it, and I recommend it to your attention. A lot of eco-S.F. articles, such as one about this Living Museum set to open later this year in Golden Gate Park. And ones from superathlete Brendan Brazier about his Thrive Diet – I think he eats only raw plants and still performs remarkably well. And there’s graffiti made from moss in Brooklyn.
Orgono Living Silica – less than sixty bucks for a thousand milliliters – from Sunfood – could be very worth it for some – a mineral lacking, very lacking, in many, most diets. There are cheaper forms of powdered MSM which, I’m pretty sure, provide you with similar substances, available at Rainbow Grocery in San Fashionisco.
Om Shan Tea, the “urban tea oasis” – new e-mail from them about a “StichCraft” event on April 17th from 7 to 10pm – part of the Pleasant Revolution Bicycle Music Tour – “mobile, human-powered festivals” being created around the country related to this. Ayla Nereo will be projecting her music video animations. A lot happening at this place, on 14th near South Van Ness, and want to promote them in this blog.
Arthur Magazine – just got their new bulletin – a lot happening also here – first item of e-biz there was a mention of the recent passing of rock photographer Jim Marshall – said to be “very, very good at his tricky craft.” – and also published in the bulletin, from a 1968 issue of Paul Krassner’s Realist, a Digger communiqué; and 1967 or ’68 Alejandro Jodorowsky full page Mexican color comics.
Anvil Chorus – “underground San Francisco progressive heavy metal” says one site – am getting to know a bit Thaen Rasmussen, guitar player and vocalist. Just got a CD of their album The Killing Sun at the last Odd Fellows meeting. Want to drop these names.
The Spiritual Enrichment Center – 2118 Hayes – an Odd Fellow brother said he attended Sunday 10am services at this location, related to the Science of Mind, featuring Ernest Holmes material. Missed this past gathering, but could see going. The site says there’s a metaphysical bookstore with “New Thought” texts, including those by Shakti Gawain. Her in mind recently because I saw a copy of her Creative Visualization the other day and was thinking of buying it.
The Tiburon Wine Festival – got a Facebook notice about a person I know whose band is performing at this soon – well, it’s really, really off my usual radar, but at least, for what it’s worth, I have some possibility of attending if I wanted, and wanted to pay whatever they’re charging for the show. Generally too rich for my blood, such occurrences. May head to Sausalito on the ferry one day with a friend and get a little sense of that north of Frisco vibe.
United Centers for Spiritual Living – got a list of affirmations from them – such as “I release all ideas of limitation. I know in Spirit all things are possible.” Could be worse things to drum into one’s consciousness.
Last Gasp catalog – got a part of it in an e-mail – am currently wanting from it a seven dollar CD featuring “classic Timothy Leary rants” along with “an unintentionally humorous British acid documentary.” – said in the little write-up to be of interest to DJs and samplers who want to include some of Dr. Tim in their mixes. And in addition, there’s some J.G. Ballard, an interview and a reading of a bit of work. So that’s quite a lot of material for a mere seven bucks. Could be heading to the Last Gasp warehouse at 777 Florida for this.
Burning Women: Widows, Witches, and Early Modern European Travelers in India – by Pompa Banerjee. Found this text when searching to see if the phrase “burning women” had already been used – was thinking of using it myself for some fiction or something. I suppose I also could use the phrase as well.
