About the band: Aki Kumar is a musician with a diverse musical background and a unique approach to blending genres. Born in Mumbai, India, Kumar's parents' eclectic tastes exposed him to a wide range of sounds, including rock 'n' roll, Bollywood film scores, and Indian classical music. 

After moving to the U.S. in 1998 to study computer science, he discovered blues and became a harmonica player and vocalist. His journey includes studying with David Barrett at the School of the Blues in San Jose and performing with local bands. Kumar's music is a fusion of Chicago-style blues with Bollywood and Indian pop elements, earning him the nickname "The Only Bombay Blues Man." His latest album, "God Bless The USA," showcases his unique synthesis of blues and Indian sensibilities.

Spam cleanup, please?

This isn't the only Marvel character sub getting hit by spam bots (see the ScarletWitch sub, for example), but it's frustrating that the mods here aren't doing anything about it.

Yes, I asked the mods privately first, and was told they remove problem posts when they see them. Nothing has since been cleaned up.

Yes, I offered to help mod (I'm a mod of several other subs), but was told that that requires a senior mod, and they don't seem to be active.

Mods, could you please clean up the crap?

Healdsburg Dental Spa is run by Scientologists

Yesterday I went in for a job interview for a receptionist position at Healdsburg Dental Spa. They asked me to come in a 7:30pm, which I guess should have been my first red flag. But their website seemed pretty normal so I went. There were already three other young women (around my age) in the office. I was very confused because they did not tell me this was going to be a group interview. Upon arriving I was given a packet of paper work to fill out. The first page asked me to agree to the principals of L Ron Hubbard and the church of Scientology. I immediately set the paper work down and walked out, because screw that! Looking back I now feel guilty that I did make more of scene and tell the other applicants they should leave, but also I just wanted to gtf out of there.

Upon doing more research into the clinic it seems that on top of being a Scientologist Dr. Maxine Tran and Healdsburg Dental Spa are massive scammers. My mom told me that a family friend had majorly botched dental work there and was refused a refund. Many of their online yelp reviews seem to backup this claim. I would love to know if anyone has been to this dental clinic and what their experience was? I'm just pretty baffled by all of it.

July 4 Events

Out of Many, One
Join the festivities on July 4 in Healdsburg

Start the day at the traditional Scout Troop 21 pancake breakfast at the Villa Chanticleer. It takes place from 7 am to 12 noon. $9 for adults and $6 for kids gets you a hearty breakfast of pancakes with real maple syrup, plus scrambled eggs, fruit and your beverage choice of milk, juice and coffee. Scouts and adult volunteers are your hosts, proceeds go to support youth activities.

Visit the Healdsburg Farmers’ Market in the Foley Family Community Pavilion, 8:30 am to 12 noon. Pick up fruits, veggies, and prepared foods, plus you can check out the cakewalk. Market vendors are baking cakes. Anyone can join a game and may win a delicious cake.

The Plaza comes alive from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. with the annual Kids Parade and Duck Dash. Music includes the Healdsburg Community Band. The event is kid-centric. There will be games, and face painting hosted by Corazón Healdsburg, along with the traditional Duck Dash races. The dashes start on an elevated flume and end in the Plaza fountain. Anyone can enter a rubber duck. Your littles are encouraged to join the Kids’ Parade, which kicks off at noon and circles the Plaza. The City and Sunrise Rotary have adopted our national motto for the event: E Pluribus Unum – Out of Many, One. A map of the world will be hung in the Plaza and all who attend are invited to mark where they or their ancestors came from. Sunrise Rotary will offer hot dogs, street corn, snow cones and popcorn to all, free of charge.

The City is partnering with the American Legion Post and the Healdsburg Tourism Improvement District for the annual Independence Day fireworks show, held as usual at Healdsburg High School. Due to the size of this year’s show and the anticipation of a large audience, safety prevails, and the high school sports field will be closed. You can set up chairs at Fitch Mountain School and surrounding areas. The fireworks can be seen for a few blocks, so look for spots that have a good view of the air above the high school.

Best grounds/tasting room near Healdsburg?

Wife and I frequent Napa Valley, and have membership at Hall wines. The wines themselves are great, but more than anything we love the grounds at Hall St. Helena. Very tastefully done and just make the experience that much better. We will be going to Sonoma, particularly Healdsburg, in a couple of months. We’ve never been winetasting in any of the Sonoma regions. I’m a fan of Pinot, she likes sparkling and whites. Is there any winery/vineyard in the area that’s comparable to Hall wines as far as grounds, tasting room go?

Can you find the tuna in my tuna wrap?

The local market had this tuna wrap on sale, which I figured was because it needed to be eaten asap. As that was my plan anyway, I bought it.

Apparently, it was discounted because it contained almost no tuna. Lots and lots of lettuce, but very little tuna.
