We are going to be starting a new round of the nail polish box soon.

eta: If were on the list last time, but didn't get an email from me a little while ago, please let me know if you want to participate
Buffistas... our show needs us. Vote for Buffy (or Breaking Bad, if you really feel you must) in the comments on Vulture's fb page. I'd love to see our guy Buffistas challenge that it's just "silly little girls" voting for Buffy.
NB: you do not have to "like" the Vulture page to post on their wall.

The room block link is up and running! I’ve posted information over on the Hotel page of the F2F website [link] , or you can just get it here:
Link for hotel reservations at our room block rate: [link] OR call the hotel at the following number: Hotel: 626.449.4000 or Sheraton Reservations: 800.457.7940 and ask for the Buffistas rate.
Anybody got Kathy Astrom's email address? I need to get in touch....
If any newer Mac OSX users (Leopard/10.5 and newer PPC and Intel) are curious if they may have the "flashback" malware that's claimed to be on 1% of Macs out there, they can download this checker:
Update your OSX to the latest patches for Java for your version (or use OSX update) to prevent this Java malware.
It mines CC info and passwords, so it's always a good idea to keep your patches up to date, whatever your OS.
The Legend of Korra premiere (first two eps) is up for free on iTunes, in case you missed it streaming the other week.
My friend Karen Hallion is an artist who does awesome fannish work (like this Amy Pond Art Nouveau print) and frequently has designs for sale on TeeFury and the like. Today's TeeFury is her design: an Art Nouveau take on The Princess Bride. It's beautiful, and it's only $10! Go buy it!
You can also check out her Etsy site or follow her on Facebook and find out when she's got other shirts & artwork for sale.
My book, Solving the Climate Crisis, is now shipping from Barnes & Noble [link] Or ask your local library to put you on the waiting list. Or ask them to order via interlibrary loan if they don't have a copy.
