Thrillers are awesome! Well, some, right? I wanted to get a group of people together to read thrillers and talk about them. What we liked or didn't, how the story developed, why some things worked and not others, or compare them to other things we've read. This is not a brainy book club, it is meant to be fun, open minded and for people who like to express their opinion and don't get angry if others don't share it. I'm from Spain, so I'm super opinionated and differences in opinions will always …

… The purpose of the group is to help geeks connect with other geeks and while the core events will most likely be socials and get togethers we'd also like to go to movies, conventions and possibly even start a role playing game or two. There is only one rule requirement for membership and that is to have a clear photo in which your face is visible. Other members are showing who they are so it's only fair that you do so as well. It's okay to come out as a geek, we will support you!

… Our intention is to have many activities to encourage the growth of friendships including weekend activities, movies, dinners, plays, game nights or just more friendly talks & gatherings.

We are connecting the dots by telling stories: about life we are living, about travel we took last winter, about last movie we saw, about premonition over last night's dream, and about food. Sharing stories over food is a tradition, something we all have done since we were able to recognize lights and sounds. Taken from a dictionary, the definition of "Food" is, a noun: "any nourishing substance that is eaten, drunk, or otherwise taken into the body to sustain life, provide energy, promote grow …

… Group projects: Depending upon interest, we might explore the option of choosing, and then participating in, a group project or two (publish a book or article, write self-evolving software, sponsor a public education forum, etc.).  Check out the proposed "CLINE Challenge" contest to produce intelligence from self evolving systems.

Hi! Welcome! I'm Cindy. My daughter Chloe,  LOVES LOVES LOVES ballet. Chloe is a bit girly, but by no means sits and paints nails all day. She is always either dancing around the house or busy with crafts and projects!  Chloe actually thought of the ballet club idea after reading one of her many ballet chapter books. Since we are fairly new to the SF Bay Area, I thought this would be a great way to meet new friends and try out all that SF Bay has to offer!  Every girl needs support, especi …

Well, let’s just dip our toe shoes into the water, here, and see if there’s any balletomania afoot, for a new meetup now. Amid the epoch of “Black Swan" at the movies, and with the Giants having won the World Series (yes, whipping through 32 fouetté turns is almost as hard as hitting a Lincecum fastball), and now the first book ever published about the entire history of ballet (“Apollo’s Angels,” by Jennifer Homans), and, ta-dah, most important of all, with the world-class San Francisco Ballet …

… It's not that we don't enjoy contact with our members, but we prefer to spend time planning new events and reading books so we have something interesting to talk about when we do get together,  than to spend a great deal of time answering individual questions which would be cleared up by a more careful or complete reading.  4. Willingness to do your own research if you need more information when organizers have said, "This is all we know about this event or this place but we want to try it out." …
