Underground Resistance - Transition/Inspiration
There will come a time in your life when you will ask yourself a series of questions. Am I happy with who I am?
Am I happy with the people around me?
Am I happy with what I’m doing?
Am I happy with the way my life is going?
Do I have a life or am I just living?
Do not let these questions strain or trouble you just point youself in the direction of your dreams find your strengh in the sound and make your transition.
Do not spend to much time thinking and not enough doing.
Did I try the hardest at any of my dreams?
Did I purposly let others discourage me when I knew I could?
Will I die never knowing what I could have been or could of done?
Do not let these doubts restrain of trouble you just point yourself in the direction of your dreams.
Find your strength in the sound and make your transition.
There will be people who say you can’t - you will.
There will be people who say you dont mix this with that and you will say "watch me".
There will be people who will say play it safe, thats to risky - you will take that chance and have no fear.
You wont let these questions restrain or trouble you.
You will point yourself in the direction of your dreams.
You will find the sreangth in the sound and make your transition.
For those who know its time to leave the house and go back to the field.
Find your strength in the sound and make your transition.

Grateful Dead Archive to move online
UC Santa Cruz has received a major grant to help digitize the Grateful Dead Archive at the university library.
The university was awarded a National Leadership Grant of $615,175 from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS).
The grant will allow the UCSC Library to digitize materials from its Grateful Dead Archive spanning from 1965 to 1995. The project will include a new website titled, "The Virtual Terrapin Station."
"We are honored to be among a select group of libraries and museums chosen as recipients of National Leadership Grants," said UCSC Librarian Virginia Steel.
"This is a first for the UCSC Library, and the grant gives us the opportunity to create a new model for web-based archives that will include traditional materials from our Grateful Dead Archive--along with materials contributed by scholars and Deadheads around the world."
The website will offer access to the Grateful Dead Archive materials, including original documents, clippings, media,articles along with three decades of the bands recordings and its performance of thousands of concerts.
The website will also allow fans to contribute to the archive. The library plans to develop a click-through permissions form for content contributors to help extend the reach of the archive to the academic community.
The Grateful Dead donated their large band archive to UC Santa Cruz in 2009. The processing of the archive is expected to be completed in 2012 with parts of the collection being made available as the work progresses.
