cluntkow **04:46 pm - New Objectivism Community Group in San Diego**Hi, my name is Christopher Luntkowski-Stojewa and I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in an Objectivism community group. Myself and Shekhar Deshpande are starting an Objectivism community group here in the San Diego area and we're looking for others who appreciate Ayn Rand's philosophy. Our first meeting will be a dinner at the Grand Del Mar this Thursday, the 27th, at six o'clock. We will actually be meeting in the hotel lobby where they serve drinks and appetizers. We chose to meet here because we will be able to talk in the lobby. The resort's address is 5299 Meadows Del Mar, San Diego, CA 92130. To get to the lobby, go up the resort's driveway, past the security gates, take the first right and follow this road to get to the lobby. Shekhar has offered to pay for all but 20$ of each person's meal. Shekhar and I have agreed that we'd like three basic activities to be a part of our community group: socializing, discussion, and political activism. How much time we spend doing these comes down to what the members of our group would like, these activities are merely what Shekhar and I are interested in. Thus the activities our group will do will be discussed at our first meeting.If you're interested in this group, please e-mail me and let me know. And if you're interested in coming to the first meeting this Thursday, let me know as soon as possible.If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to let me know. My e-mail is: cluntkow@uci.edu

Here is the teaser:"Can we finally unify the large and the small? Unify the behaviorofplantary bodies under gravity with the behavior of subatomicparticles under quantum theory? Come and find the answer!Since the recent introduction of String Theory, M-theory, and nowLoop Quantum Gravity, separate groups of physicists are claimingthey each have the answers necessary to unify gravity with quantumtheory.To date, no experimental validation exists. But soon, we will haveexperimental results... Michael Korns will give an overview of thethree new theories of quantum gravity. The implications for oureveryday lives will amaze you."Korns Research http://www.korns.com

starling321 **12:00 pm - The Future of SD Futurists**Jessica was last seen being smuggled out of San Diego by a pack of bears in odd gold and blue outfits. This leaves us, Rob and Star, as your new happy-go-lucky moderators. In honor of this, Labor Day, and the fact that no plans to the contrary have been made, SD Futurists will not be meeting this coming Friday.SD Futurists will be returning next month to focus on Extreme Physics!I am pleased to announce that Mike Korns,Artifical Intelligence Innovator and moderator of the Las Vegas Futurists, has agreed to give his talk on Loop Quantum Gravity.
