The Stanley Cup visits the Apple Store
If you've been following our coverage of the Stanley Cup's summer journeys, you'll be delighted to hear that the Cup recently made an appearance at the Apple Store New York City. Forum member littlefish spotted this item over on nhl.com, which recorded Eric Staal and Cam Ward's day with the Stanley Cup. Looks like they were Apple's biachs too, "During the meet and great, Staal and Ward displayed their celebrity playlists on a couple of laptops. Their musical choices are available to download at the iTunes Music Store in the United States."

101 Alternatives to Suicide!
Longtime fan and SuperFan Kate Bornstein's new book Hello, Cruel World is due out in a month or so, and she has a new website to promote it. You can pre-order her book from Amazon now, and the website includes (among other cool stuff) a downloadable pdf sample that's free (and copyright free).
Hello, Cruel World is a fun, playful, and straightshooting book designed to help prevent teen suicides, and features a catalog of 101 Alternatives to Suicide that range from the playful (Moisturize), to the irreverent (Disbelieve the Binary), to the highly controversial (Get Laid. Please). It encourage readers to give themselves permission to unleash their hearts' harmless desires. The book has only one directive: "Don't be mean" and this guiding principle brings its readers on a self-validating journey, forging new paths towards decisions to choose life.
Good luck with the book Kate! Suicide is such a tragic thing, and hopefully your work will bring more awareness to the issue, and make those considering ending their life see that there are lots of alternatives. It can be such a wonderful life, sometimes you just need someone like Kate to show you how to look at it.
And once you have your copy, keep an eye out for the very geeky Nitrozac illustration! :-D
