From CNN: Sen. Barack Obama’s grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, has died after a battle with cancer, his campaign office says.

There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul. – Ella Wilcox

The gatekeepers of higher frequencies of compassion and light are alive and well- bringing hope,peace,and an end to all suffering. Which only proves hope springs eternal for life affirming changes to come- both here and in the larger sense bringing a welcome end to the death cultures and their dark designs of greed. Let it be so.

It is so sad that she died one day before her grandson becomes President-Elect of the United States.

Of all the people in the world, perhaps she would have savored tomorrow’s historic moment more than anyone else. Very sad that she didn’t live to see it happen. May God bless Senator Obama and his family…

since this is an open thread I wanted to ask a question and hopefully someone here knows the answer to it. It has nothing to do with the election!
does anyone know what is going on with ojai.net? I have been trying to get someone to call me back since September. I’ve sent emails and even went to their storefront down in Oak View. A nice lady that owns a business next to them said they never come into the office and that people have stopped by looking for them to complain a lot recently.
We need to change our ISP at work because of their lack of response and our email problems. But we have to find out information from them before we make the switch.
anybody heard anything?

Donna – I had heard rumors that they were going out of business. I called them to get the scoop and they never returned the call. Someone subsequently told me they weren’t out of business, just having severe email server issues.
If you need business support, might I recommend my friend and vendor, Dave Lawrence at Smart Technology Enablers, dlawrence@enablers.com – they use ojai.net, and have other partners and vendors as well.

thanx Tyler – you seem to be hearing the same stuff that I am.
My husband Robert (who you know) already recommended Dave to me – we have a meeting with him next week!
