How to Run an Election
How to Run an Election
by Fran Carter
Regardless of how informal or small an organization is, every election should be conducted as if it could be subjected to the closest scrutiny. From nominations, to vote, to ballot, to count, it is important that the integrity of the election be preserved AND documented.
Rules For Election
By-laws outline the method to follow when electing officers. First, they identify the officers or positions to be elected. By-laws were considered when the organization was first created, and may have been changed to fit varying situations. The specific time is outlined and prescribed for each event as it leads to the actual elections. By-laws should contain information concerning:
- When the elections are held (annual meetings or ______.)
- Nominations—how and when.
- Voting—how and when.
Rules of Order (or procedure manuals) are the written rules of parliamentary procedure adopted by the organization. These usually refer to efficient transaction of business in meetings and usually speak to officers' duties.
Most Rules of Order name an authority, such as Robert's Rules of Order, Newly Revised, and create rules to supplement or clarify the named authority. Rules of Order address such things as:
- How the business meetings are conducted
- Duties of officers
- Standing committee duties
By-laws also address organizational business such as:
- Objectives
- Membership and Dues
- Meetings (schedule, special, business, quorum, etc.)
- Officers (describe office, how elected, term time, etc.)
- Board of Directors (describe office, who is elected, and who is appointed)
- Duties of officers
- Committees (defined, duties etc.)
- Nominations and elections
Following this procedure gives an organization structure and direction. Rules and regulations are guidelines which give parameters within which members must work.
Nominating Committee
A Nominating Committee may be the most important committee within your organization. The key to the future rests in their hands. The bylaws or Rules of Order usually describe exactly how this committee is initiated and convened, whether appointed from the board or officers, or elected at a general meeting. Whatever mode is selected for determining this committee, great consideration should be taken in choosing members.
The President does not "appoint" a nominating committee and should not serve even as an exofficio member of a nominating committee. Members who serve on this committee should have a good understanding of the duties and responsibilities of the organization's officeholders.
Once the committee is in place, and a convener or chairman chosen, a search for nominees begins. Names of persons submitted should be studied carefully. Popularity is not a sufficient reason for choosing a leader.
Qualities and abilities of candidates should be considered before availability. It is a disservice to the organization to select someone because they will "take the job." The nominating committee should study the duties of each office and search for the candidate(s) most able to perform these duties. The committee should provide the candidate with a job description and hope for a positive response.
Nominating Committee Report
The Nominating Committee presents a written list of candidates for each available office to the board of directors, usually with written agreement of each nominee to serve if elected. Before the election, the committee formally presents a written report at a regular board meeting.
Nominations should be solicited from the general membership. These names, (after all Rules of Order are observed) accompanied by acceptances, should be presented to the general membership for election.
Voting is the right and privilege of every current member in good standing. Members who reside in various parts of the country should be given the same right and privilege to vote as those who attend an annual meeting.
Voting may be accomplished by voice, by written ballot, or by electronic voting. If the vote is taken by voice, members unable to attend should have another option. If more than one candidate is proposed for an office, the voting process should always be in writing. Alternatively, electronic balloting can be accomplished using any of a number of free or inexpensive software options, available from the Internet. The by-laws should provide for such action.
If officers are to be elected by a majority vote, the organization's by-laws should define "majority" as meaning either more than half, or a two-thirds vote.
Ballots should include:
- Names of candidates and offices to be filled
- Brief biographical information (see below)
- Length of time office is held
- When and where the announcement of those elected will take place
- Instructions for voting
- Instructions for return (see below)
Biography Insert
The inclusion of candidate biographies along with the ballot is appreciated by members, particularly those who are out of state. These biographies should emphasize the qualifications most suited to the office sought, be brief and pointed, and each should be approximately the same length. It is good practice to let the candidate review their biography before printing and distributing.
Return of Ballott
Instructions may require the ballot to be placed in a sealed "blind" envelope (one having no markings). The "Blind" envelope goes into a return envelope prepared by the organization. This return, or "ballot" envelope, should be addressed to the society with a bold entry, "BALLOT." Space is provided for the voter's name and return address to verify membership.
Marking a return envelope "Ballot" insures that returns come from only those eligible to vote.
Cost Savers
When cost is critical, print biographies in reduced print on both sides of the paper. Consider using a ballot that can be reproduced on one third of a sheet, reducing printing and mailing expenses. Both ballot and biographies may be printed on light weight paper.
Counting and Reporting
A special committee is usually appointed or elected to count and report the ballots. In a mail election, as stated above, two envelopes are used to protect the secret balloting. These are the ballot, or outside envelope, and the "blind," or inside envelope. Ballot envelopes should be collected and not opened until the deadline has passed. Then, each envelope should be opened in the presence of at least three persons. Their instructions might be:
- Verify that return name/address on the ballot (or outside) envelope is on the membership list.
- As each ballot envelope is opened, set aside the inside or "blind" envelope to be counted later.
- Verify that only one "blind" envelope is in each ballot envelope received.
- After all ballot envelopes are opened, they should be counted, rubber-banded, and labeled with a tally slip giving the count and signed by all three counters.
- Match the number of ballot envelopes against "blind" envelopes. The count should be the same.
- Open each "blind" envelope within view of all counters.
- Begin tally and counting process.
- One counter slowly reads each vote and passes the ballot to the second counter to verify as the third counter does the tally.
- When completed, repeat the process, with a new tally sheet with each counter taking a different role.
- Total both tally sheets and note discrepancies. All counters should again shift roles and votes for the office in question should be read and tallied again.
- Ballots should be counted and, with a copy of the tally sheet signed by all three counters, placed in a sealed envelope for storage in a secure place.
- A copy of the final tally sheet, signed by all counters, is presented to the Board.
Winners and losers alike should be notified immediately by the nominating committee (or in some cases the counters). The notification process should be written and well understood at the beginning of any election either through the procedure manual or by-laws.
Procedures which prove effective should be written and passed along to next year's committee, or presented to the board for inclusion in a policy statement or procedure manual. The same holds true for something that did not work well.
Leadership Qualities
Cooperation and communication are qualities needed in prospective officers. Each nominee should also have the overall welfare of the organization in mind. Displaying respect, integrity, courtesy, tolerance, compassion, and humility to each society member should be qualities each member should possess, but qualities especially sought in leaders.
Ideals, objectives and the future of the organization are at stake when any new officer takes a position. The above qualities should be sought by the nominating committee when selecting candidates and weighed by members when exercising their right to vote.
"Always ask a busy person, they know how to get a job done," is a quote heard often by a nominating committee. Busy people are usually well organized and energetic. But qualities possessed by the quiet, shy person may be invaluable. It might take time to search for that unsung hero in your membership who is willing, but not the usual volunteer. Look for the individual who gets things done in a quiet manner, with respect for fellow members and pride in membership in their organization.
More Than One Candidate
Freedom of choice is what democracy is all about. Whenever possible, select two or more good, qualified candidates for each vacancy to be filled. More than one candidate means there are several people willing to become a part of an active, viable organization. It means the organization is growing and prospering.
Each candidate's abilities and background should be studied; personalities and friendship should be put aside when voting. Which candidate has the qualities needed for the position? Careful thought and consideration should be spent on your vote.
When you find yourself in the position of being one of two candidates proposed for a vacancy—be thankful. There is more than one person willing to accept such an honor. And if the time comes and the vote is for the other person, then smile, congratulate that person, volunteer to help in any way possible, and mean it. After all, the organization comes first. If you believe in it enough, you should be willing to do your share in the operation and business of OUR organization.

Brits got Kindles for Christmas
Ask punters what they got for Christmas and a rather large number of them say they got a Kindle. Pollster YouGov asked that very question of 2000-odd UK adults and found that one in 40 of us received an e-book reader as a gift or bought one for ourselves over the festive period. Given that the adult population of the UK is …
Kith and Kindle
50% of our family now either have one or are waiting for the Touch to come to the UK. My 93 year old mother in law is particularly enamoured with hers. She doesn't have a PC/wireless connectivity, so has the 3G variety. It also helps that all her favourite books are free! To be fair we are a family of book nuts with a real storage problem for those that we've already got.
Kobo Touch is already out. It's not only better than the Kindle Touch, it uses the open EPUB format, rather than the locked down Amazon AMZ.
OK, I'll bite...
The Kindle also supports the MOBI ebook format, which isn't hard to produce or convert yourself - just install the Calibre ebook manager/converter (actually, do that whatever reader you own - :-)).
Also, "better" is such a vague and subjective term - the Kobo is a fine machine (and I considered it), but in the end, I think the Kindle nudges it if you're an Amazon regular. (I also like my Kindle's hardware keypad.) I don't buy many ebooks, though - Calibre and the likes of Project Gutenberg help see to that...
But if you're happy with the Kobo, good for you - horses for courses and all that :-)
The main thing which swung me towards to the Kindle over the Kobo were that side mounted page turning buttons. The touch screen in nicer for typing but for reading (which is the main point of the device) I found the buttons far more practical than having to poke the screen with my other hand (well, that and the fact that Amazon have far more of the non-fiction book I wanted available).
Kindle - less than £100
Tablets - average £400 (some exceptions I know)
I wonder if price had anything to do with it?
This article is kind of like saying "More chocolate than Kindles purchased at Xmas!"
I bought a few kindles from Tesco for £79 ... Xmas sorted!!!!
Hmm, I wonder
how many people now use the word Kindle as a generic term for e-book reader.
I know my mum told her bowling friends she got a Kindle, despite it being Kobo, we got her the Kobo because it's got more books, and is generally a better reader.
Yeah - same with the iPad...
I bought my wife an Android Asus EEE Pad (TF101)... and she insists on telling all her friends that she got an iPad for Christmas... and they all call it an iPad even when they're looking at it.
The low-hanging fruit
I called my MP3 player an iPod for years, despite the fact it had nothing to do with Apple or their products. But two syllables are easier to pronounce than five. Similarly, it's a lot easier to just say "Kindle", a well-known brand, than "e-Reader", which, to be perfectly frank, is a pretty stupid name to begin with.
I think "iPod" went the way of hoover and biro some time ago, particularly in playgrounds.
Kindle might follow, but only if Amazon stop diluting the brand with things like the Fire.
I don't know if "owning the brand" is commercially useful to Amazon. It makes them the first place people go if they are interested in buying an e-reader, at least for a few years. (I don't suppose anyone buys hoovers or biros from the original manufacturer anymore.) It is certainly deserved. Amazon made a product cheap enough and good enough for book lovers rather than gadget lovers.
It's Amazing!
How all you people could have remembered one small post that I made here saying thanks-but-no-thanks to e-books and their readers. I know it seems unlikely, even impossible, that people should have gone to the trouble of finding out who I am, and where I live (El Reg security issue here?), but it looks like they did, and wow! Just what I wanted! No kindles for Christmas.
What I'm a lot less happy about is that none of you sent the real books I asked for...
Kindle, Kobo...
we decided on Kobo over Kindle, particularly with the pre-Christmas price drop, and based on various comparison tests. Having tested what went to a relative, I'm quite happy I didn't get one for myself. Yes, it's ok, and probably less locked down than Kindle, and with epub support. But the 4-way navi pad is a pain and being rubber covered you never know if you press right (and you often get it wrong, going "up" instead of "right". Yes, I would prefer a hardware button on the side. Bundled software is crap, and why the f... do I have to register to install it? Yeah, so they can push their s*** back at me, and then probably lose my data to some hack. Fortunately I stumbled upon the obvious software choice that Kobo decided to keep shtum about - Calibre does the job well enough and there are even plug-ins for those, who want to unlock their DRM-chained purchase.
It's all a bit of a f*** with all the formats and conversions (why the f**** can't they read common formats such as rtf?).
And then, there is a matter of handling contents, when I loaded the device with some 300 Mb (not that much, huh?) of the books I had scanned and read, the device would get so sluggish that it was hardly possible to navigate the menus. Sadly, it seems to automatically scan for and "tag" whatever you drop into its memory. And then, the flash every page, or every 4 pages, depending on your settings, this is annoying. Yes, it's the nature of e-ink, but you won't find a word of this "feature" mentioned by any of the e-book reader manufacturers, nosir.
And, on top of everything, you need a source of light to read them, so no more wasted eyesight reading off a lit screen of a "smartphone".
But the price is just about acceptable, considering the (non-removable) battery life and the decent quality of text display. Give them another year or two and they'll drop to 50 quid and become less clunky.
You mean like the two bookeen opus's I bought my kids, £50 each, weighs less than a kindle, (ok it's a 5" screen, but most of their books are smaller anyway.
The opus's also read txt files as well, although not rtf's. Why not RTFs? well probably the same reason as they don't read .doc and .docx
The Rich Text Format (often abbreviated RTF) is a proprietary document file format with published specification developed by Microsoft Corporation since 1987 for Microsoft products and for cross-platform document interchange.
Both devices loaded with over 500mb of books, should keep them quiet for a while!
how many of the 2000-odd received actual books?
just asking...
Its all about price and marketing
I would have bought anyone in my family an e reader for xmas, they are cheap enough to do so. There are only a couple of members of immediate family I would have spent £400+ on to buy a tablet.
As for all the Kindle/Kobo/Sony is better debate, it's immaterial. Look back over the years and you will see many examples which illustrate that it doesn't matter which product is technically better, the key to success is marketing. Kindle have nailed it with a product which is good enough (although maybe not the best) and a marketing and distribution chain which can't be beaten.
Do you think my 80 year old grandparents are more concerned about DRM or the ability to buy a book in 1 click from a website they know how to navigate?
YPTAFH (doesn't exactly roll off the tongue does it?)
assuming that your 80 year old grandparents didn't retire 15 years ago having helped usher in the computer age and talk machine code in their sleep Id reckon the YPTAFH factor would be important as well (Younger Person To Ask For Help)...
doesn't just apply to the older generation either.. quite a few of my friends+gf got kindles at least in part because I had one and was able to help them set theirs up/use it.
"Good with computers"...
... three words I have expressly told my parents and relatives to never, ever, again use in a conversation with other people.
Despite this, I still get phone calls from random friends-of-friends/relatives asking me if I don't mind driving halfway across the fucking country to move their mouse two inches and press a button.
(Sorry, it's been one of those Christmases...)
The Kindle works well. It's not the only e-reader out there.
I suppose everyone knows about Baen Books at www.baen.com who have been using free electronic editions as a promotional tool. I wonder how the explosion in e-reader numbers will affect them. But they have a lot of free SF.
There are some decent cheap e-books from Amazon, and some real rip-offs. If you want to read "A Princess of Mars" go to Project Gutenberg. The version I got from Amazon has most of a chapter missing.
That 1-in-40 could be a pretty high percentage of those who read books for fun. The per capita annual book sales in the UK are roughly the same value as the cost of a Kindle About a quarter of adults don't read books, Half read fewer than five a year.
+1 for the Baen Free library regardless of ereaders.
Brilliant way to get free books from some cracking sf/f authors including half a dozen Hugo and Nebula winners.
Their paid site Webscriptions is DRM free as well.
Additionally some of their Hard Covers include a CD with 20 odd normally paid for ebooks for free.
2000 odd UK people?
I never received this survey from YouGov. Does that make me 'normal' in their eyes?
Are 'odd' people statistically significant?
Kobo Touch
Got my eldest a Kobo Touch as it was the one recommended by El Reg readers, it is brill. I was hoping he would throw a strop and say he didn't like it, sadly for me he loves it too. I'll have to wait for my birthday and hope the missus takes the heavy hints.
Bookeen Opus
Bought mine from Waterstones £49 - can't go wrong.
eBook piracy...
It would be interesting to know just how many of those readers are going to be loaded with books from mates collections, downloaded from dodgy sources.
In most offices up and down the country, I bet there's a little stash of digital goodies lurking on file servers, including plenty of eBooks.
There's another reason why the devices are so popular - your not locked in the same way as you are on a fruit based tablet device. Just connect with USB, drag and drop, done.
I'm not condoning this type of activity, heck, it's just what people do, innit?
The perception of value in tiny digital files simply doesn't have much significance when compared with a dead tree book. Head onto Amazon, bloody hell, that tiny download is like £15! - may as well buy the book and get something tangible!
iow, eBooks are often very overpriced and so we get the old mp3 thing all over again, seeking out dodgy, often sub-standard digital wares - the distributors just never learn.
... Just saying ...
I gave one to my Mum and one to my Dad, Mum loves hers Dad's a technological dinosaur and used it for about 5 min then it's sat in the draw next to his bed since then.
Mine got a bust screen (apparently very common) after 14 months and they want 40 quid to replace it because it's outside 12 months warranty. Since I can only read their books on their obviously rubbish hardware they have me over a barrel. Couldn't possibly recommend them to anybody.
Sale of Goods Act etc
Should be able to argue that it ought to l ast more than a year without breaking.
Take thee to moneysavingexpert.com
"that one in 40 of us received an e-book reader"
How many will be a novelty and end up in the spare room/cupboard by the end of January? Don't get me wrong I have a widescreen Arnova 10" cheapo Andy tab and it's perfect for ebook reading, I just wonder how many people bought them as presents for people without really thinking if the person wants to buy online books or knows how and where to get the free public domain books?
the other few percent
I got the Sony PRS-T1, I've been reading out-of-copyright fot years so format wasn't an issue - compatibility with my local library's ebook was.
Only problem with ereaders is needing a separate light source for reading at night in bed (compared to say reading on the iphone).
And yet...
...while sitting in the park under the biggest light source I know, a Kindle beats the pants off an iPhone.
I also find it easier to switch on a bedside light than switch off the sun, for some reason.
If you're not particularly picky about accessories, I heard on the grapevine that Poundstretcher were selling clip-on reading lights for e-readers, for (surprise) £1. I went in, found one and figured I had nothing to lose...
...and it works fine - one very bright, white LED, running off one of those "button" watch batteries, fixed to a metal "gooseneck" with a "bulldog clip" on the other end. The clip could be a bit larger (to go round my Kindle in its case), but otherwise it's surprisingly well-made, and when it finally breaks you can buy another.
Basically, for me, it's a "no-brainer", and certainly about £49 cheaper than Amazon's own "lighted case"...
I got one too.
I'll probably still buy physical books, usually second hand. But the number of free out of copyright books alone made it worthwhile.
"Kobo Touch is already out. It's not only better than the Kindle Touch, it uses the open EPUB format, rather than the locked down Amazon AMZ."
You totally miss the point - it's about ease of use - this is why Amazon with the Kindle and Apple with the iPad have it so right. Most of the epub books will free on kindle anyway.
Can you get a 3G Kobo you can use worldwide - thought not...
I appreciate people on here are perhaps more technical than most but the reality is *most* people do not want to faff around uploading their own ebooks when there are a stack of free and cheap ones on Amazon. I bought my wife a Kindle - took all of 2 minutes to setup and she can happily get all the books she wants within seconds.
Kobo is not bad but recon the Kindle will win through - it's just an easier experience.
Kodo --> Dodo
I got a Kobo Touch for christmas, and have to say that it's fantastic. I wasn't sure sure about them a few months ago but after having a good go with mine over the holidays and I am extremely impressed.
"Only problem with ereaders is needing a separate light source for reading at night in bed (compared to say reading on the iPhone)."
Surely a problem they have in common with their paper cousins. People want it every way - a screen that looks like paper and a mega battery life but also backlit so you can use it in bed.
Most people solve the problem with a bedside light or a clip-on LED light (often built into the case) or even a headlamp.
Sat at the side of the pool I've seen plenty of kindles, just one iPad, they were sat under the stairs well away from the sun they paid so much to enjoy. The missus loves hers too.

Does this bat come with a warranty?
No, the Sam Bat Maple Wood Youth Baseball Bat (LLCD1 Walker/Black) does not come with a warranty.
how heavy is the 32" sam bat
The Sam Bat Maple Wood Youth Baseball Bat (LLCD1) Walker/Black has approximately a -4 to -5 drop, so a 32" model would weigh approximately 27-28 oz.
What is the weight of this bat in 30" youth?
A 30" in the Sam Bat Maple Wood Bat (LLCD1) would be around a 25 or 20 oz. All wood bats are an approximation since the wood does vary in weight.
Product Description
Some folks will lead you to believe that wood is wood, and that the brand does not matter. Others will tell you that the bigger the brand, the better the wood, because of their sheer mass of raw materials, and the ability to hand select the finest timber. We will tell you that is only the beginning. All Sam Bat timber is of the highest grade Hard Maple available in North America. Every bat to come out of the mill is made from the top 5% of Hard Maple Prime Grade Timber. That makes a Sam Bat good, but what happens next makes it great. Conventional lathes put a tremendous amount of stress on timber as the wood is being turned. This fatigue weakens the stick before it even sees the ballpark. Sam Bat timber is turned into a baseball bat on a proprietary lathe, custom built for and designed by Sam Holman, the founder of Sam Bat. This exclusive technology puts absolutely no stress on the timber during the production process. Most bats lose at least 4-5 long shots before they leave the factory floor, but Sam Bats keep them. But the real test is at the elite pro level. In just a few years, hundreds of professional players have made the switch to Sam Bat Hard Maple. Free Shipping!
About Sam Bat
Holy Cow, that's great service. I look forward to using the bat in my over thirty league game this coming sunday. Great job.

An excellent product for gum health

This is an excellent product to use for periodontal (gum) health. Last year during a regular visit to my periodontist, the hygienist measured a pocket depth of 6 mm on one of my teeth. Everyone was upset and immediately suggested that I needed a root canal for that tooth. I resisted this, but on my regular vist to my dentist 3 months later, he also measured a 6-mm pocket depth and almost demanded that I have a root canal. I emphatically told him NO! This was the first of June 2009. When I got home I went to the iHerb.com web site and searched on Xylitol -- and that's where I found Now Foods Xyliwhite Mouthwash. My order arrived the following week, I started using it regularly, 2-3 times a day. And when I visited my periodontist in September they measure a pocket depth of 3 mm at the very same location that had been 6 mm. My only comment was "Isn't that interesting!" Since then my pocket depths are consistently 2 and 3 mm. I repeat: this is an excellent product.

This "refreshmint" was my first trial of Xyliwhite mouthwash. It tastes worse than any medicine I have ever tasted. I have since tried the Xyliwhite cinnamon mouthwash and it is much much better.

I recently tried this mouthwash and I'm switching from Aubrey Organics Mint to Xyliwhite. I have trouble with post nasal drip and a quick gargle with Xyliwhite cleans everything out. Wonderful stuff.

My teeth have been damaged from teeth grinding and a year long apple cider vinegar. I felt my teeth getting weak and sensitive. Since I started with xyliwhite, my the sensitivity and weak feeling is gone. You have to use it right after every time you eat. I wish Now will provide a measuring cup and larger size. I finished my first bottle in 2 weeks.

Virotherapy and Natural History Study of KHSV-Associated Multricentric Castleman s Disease With Correlates of Disease Activity
- Full Text View

- How to Read a Study Record
This study will gain information about a rare disorder called KSHV-associated multicentric Castleman s disease (MCD). KSHV, a virus, causes several kinds of cancer, including some forms of MCD. KSHV stands for the Kaposi s sarcoma herpes virus, also called human herpes virus-8, or HHV-8. Researchers want to understand the biology of KSHV-MCD to identify how this disease causes illness and to find ways to treat it. There is no standard therapy effective for all cases of KSHV-MCD. The disease is often fatal, and about half the people who have it die within 2 years of diagnosis.
Patients ages 12 and older may be eligible for this study. Participation entails more drawing of blood and having repeated tumor biopsies than if patients received treatment in a non-research setting. Researchers would like to learn more about the relationship of KSHV and Castleman s disease symptoms, and they want to obtain at least three biopsies in this study.
There are some side effects of experimental therapy that patients may take for KSHV-MCD. Zidovudine, or Retrovir , is used at a high dose. It is given orally or through a vein, four times daily, for 7 days or longer. Zidovudine can cause nausea, vomiting, decreased bone marrow function, and decreased blood counts. Combined with valganciclovir, or Valcyte , it is likely to be more toxic to bone marrow. Valganciclovir can cause problems with bone marrow function, leading to low blood counts, sterility, and defects in a fetus. Combined with zidovudine, valganciclovir may cause more toxicity to the bone marrow. It is given twice daily for 7 days or longer. Bortezomib, or Velcade , is given for a few seconds by a rapid push through a needle into the vein. It is given twice weekly for four doses and then stopped for 1 week. Bortezomib can sometimes cause low blood pressure; it also can cause gastrointestinal problems and a low blood platelet count. Rituximab and liposomal doxorubicin are drugs given by a catheter into a vein. Interferon-alpha is given by injection into the skin. Those drugs are not experimental, but their use in Castleman s disease is experimental.
Some patients may be treated with a combination of chemotherapy followed by interferon-alpha. Interferon-alpha is infected into the skin by a needle. The natural form of interferon is produced by the body and helps to control viral infections. KSHV decreases the effect of the body s interferon, and the researchers want to see if giving higher doses of interferon will help to control KSHV infection.
A positron emission tomography (PET) scan, for research purposes only, may be done up to three times a year. A radioactive sugar molecule called fluorodeoxyglucose, or FDG, is used. It is believed that activated lymphocytes that may be found in patients disease might use more FDG because these cells burn more glucose fuel. Children younger than 18 years will not have PET scan done.
This study may or may not have a direct benefit for participants. However, detailed assessments made throughout the study may provide information to help the doctors treat KSHV-MCD better.

|Official Title:
|Targeted Oncolytic Virotherapy and Natural History Study of KSHV-Associated Multicentric Castleman's Disease With Laboratory and Clinical Correlates of Disease Activity
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|September 2004
- Multicentric Castleman's disease (MCD) is a rare but lethal Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) associated lymphoproliferative disorder with a median survival of 2 years. It occurs more often in HIV-infected individuals than those without HIV infection. The poor prognosis is not fully explained by the underlying HIV, as the HIV-negative cases appear to have no survival advantage over the HIV-positive cohort. The disease has no defined standard treatment and has not been prospectively studied in a comprehensive manner.
- KSHV-MCD may provide a model for the development of targeted oncolytic virotherapy or other pathogenesis-based approaches to viral-associated malignancies. In KSHV-MCD, viral encoded tyrosine kinase genes appear to be possible targets to exploit in a virotherapy approach. Specific viral encoded genes appear to convert zidovudine and ganciclovir (or valganciclovir) into toxic phosphorylated moieties within the KSHV-infected tumor cells, to specifically target the KSHV-infected cells thus leading to specific cell death. If successful, this could have direct therapeutic benefit to patients and also provide a model for further development of this approach in other tumors.
- To study and describe the natural history of KSHV-MCD.
- To assess disease activity as reflected by fever, thrombocytopenia, anemia, neutropenia, and lymphocytopenia, human and viral interleukin-6 levels, C-reactive protein, and KSHV viral loads.
- To describe how the laboratory pathogenesis-related parameters (especially serum levels of human and viral interleukin-6) are related to the clinical and hematologic parameters listed.
- Age greater than or equal to 12 years
- Biopsy proven KSHV-associated MCD
- Natural History study
Inclusion of treatment as needed, with guidelines for preliminary investigation of a variety of specific treatments of interest
- High-dose zidovudine and ganciclovir
- High-dose zidovudine and ganciclovir and bortezomib
- Sirolimus
- Rituximab with liposomal doxorubicin followed by interferon-alpha
- Rituximab with EPOCH chemotherapy
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|12 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Age greater than or equal to 12 years.
Biopsy proven KSHV-associated MCD, confirmed in the Laboratory of Pathology, CCR.
Willing to give informed consent.
-A parent or guardian must be available for giving consent for pediatric subjects under 18 years of age.
Any abnormality that would be scored as NCI CTC Grade IV toxicity that is unrelated to HIV, its treatment, or to MCD that would preclude protocol treatment and/or observation only.
Presence of another malignancy requiring current treatment that would preclude the use of all of the study treatments or the ability to monitor the natural history of MCD untreated.
Any condition or set of circumstances that in the opinion of the investigators would make participation in this study unsafe or otherwise inappropriate for a given individual.

I've received some e-mails with questions about my homemade cards so I thought I'd post them all together to give some of you ideas if you're planning to make your own this year. FUN!
**click on the picture to enlarge if you want to read the cards
My first homemade card. It was simple. I wanted to make my own so I could share our news about baby #2 on the way.
Our Charger card. This was so fun to work on. I couldn't get too creative with the card design because I needed lots of space for all of the writing. A poem is a fun way to personalize a card and share something fun about your family.
Last years card. Once again announcing the news of a new addition on the way. :) I cut these a little too close for comfort. Kenny and I went to Denver around Thanksgiving to see the Chargers play the Broncos and I was working like mad on these cards the whole trip! In the Denver airport, on the plane, in the hotel room... I think people thought I was crazy! (most people traveling bring a magazine and maybe a snack - not card stock and glue dots) Kenny said never again. I heard never again...until next year.
For the third and last time I find myself in "the year of the baby" and so I will not be making my cards this year. When I was trying to decide what to do instead Kenny said, you know, we could take a year off and just not send cards. {GASP!} Blasphemy! I told him I was going to pretend I didn't hear that and then continued to ramble on about possible card ideas. Haylee, a close friend of mine, is designing my cards for me this year. You can check out her beautiful work at her website heyhaydesigns.com or her blog www.heyhaydesigns.blogspot.com. She is so talented! A great person to contact for cards/announcements for any occasion. I'm so excited to send my cards out and start receiving cards in the mail! It's one of my favorite things about this time of year.
Do you have anything in the works for your cards this year?
Update with our 2010 and 2011 card....

There are numerous benefits of following a regular exercise program--even for individuals who are challenged by such conditions as joint pain, back pain, arthritis, or osteoporosis--or individuals who are recovering from an injury or surgery (for example, joint replacement or arthroscopy). Exercise has also been shown to be beneficial to people of all ages, as it helps to lower blood pressure, lower the risks of falls and serious injuries (such as hip or wrist fractures), and slows the body's loss of muscle and bone mass. In addition, exercise helps to accomplish the following:
It is never too late to start an exercise program. With today's medical technology and scientific advances, the average life expectancy for men and women is increasing. Coupled with this is the fact that with longer lives, people are looking for a higher quality of living with greater importance placed on independent, healthy living. Exercise is a great way to keep older people active, but should be approached with caution. Exercise does not have to be vigorous to be beneficial. Even a walk around the park or 30 minutes working in the garden can be helpful for any age body and mind. Also, if 30 minutes of exercise at one time seems too much, research now suggests that three 10-minute intervals spread out over the day is just as effective.
If you have an existing medical condition, or are just starting an exercise program, be sure to consult your health care provider prior to beginning the program to make sure the exercise program that you choose is designed with your health and wellness in mind.

Constant Barking Too Stimulating???
By Borador's Mom
from Phoenix, AZ
About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about The Movie for Dogs:
I bought this movie to see if it could be a suitable alternative to the new DOGTV channel. My dog did seem to react to it by watching, barking and going more to the window. I fear, however, the rather constant barking on the movie could be too stimulating for my big dog to watch all day long while I am at work. DOGTV has relaxation segments and does segments to hopefully train dogs to 'not react' and 'not bark' constantly. My pup isn't a barker usually. Don't want to start him barking now!!!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I would recommend this to anyone who has
By "Prissy Lou"
from Birmingham, AL
First, my dog is VERY spoiled and II watch tv with him....Animal Planet. He is always captivated by the dogs and cats. I take him to "the dog food store" each time I buy his food and let him watch the mice running in their wheels, guinea pigs, and ferrets. This is where I got the idea about searching for a movie for dogs. He loves this movie and almost wags his tail off watching it. I don't know what he does when I am not home and it is on, but I feel better about leaving him knowing there is something to take his mind off me being gone. The movement is great, but I wish there were more close up shots of the dogs. I recently retired and it is a great "baby-sitting" tool while I do other things in the house. He tries to see where the dogs are by looking behind the tv, just as he does when he sees himself in the mirror.My dog is a small 4 year old Pekingese.If he could talk, I think he would say the movie is "the cat's meow".
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

images not appropriate
By rottweilerowner
from Sacramento
although my dog seemed to like the video and the "door bell" sound did not distruct him but only got his attention, when I actually watched some of the video I saw dogs misbehaving, showing dominating behavior towards each other, nose-to-nose behavior, playful mounting - also a means of dominance - dominating behavior should not be encouraged. I am surprised that people who know dogs actually made this.

My dog started watching it but lost interest after about 15 minutes. Perhaps she likes a little more people involvement.

Bark, Bark, Bark
By Gail
from Flagstaff, Arizona
First let me say I think it is great that someone made a DVD like this it is very cute. The problem with my four dogs is it was too stimulating for them and every time they heard a dog bark they would run to the door, every time they heard the door bell ring which signals a new part of the movie they would run to the door. It is a great movie though for dogs that love to watch TV and the action on the TV. Mine just wanted to bark and look around to see where the dog noises were coming from. The quiet only for dog ears voice that says good dog is great because they would look up.

kinda boring for people, rapt attention for cat and dog.it draws them to it.i would recommend it for dogs and cat.not for people enjoyment, boring. but i bought it for our pets and they love it.
good rainy day distractor
By Happy Doggie Parent
from Florida
This was very helpful to keep two dogs entertained and out of mischief for a while during a recent rainy day. The retriever was more attentive than my pointer/terrier mix; it was interesting to note that the retriever has some issues with german shepherds - growled every time one came on the screen; didn't with any of the other breeds. Better to know this from a movie than outside at a park.
By Grandma
from Amarillo, TX
The first time she watched it our dog wanted to fight those dogs and ran around to the back of the TV to see where they went when the dogs ran off the screen. The second time she was calmer but stayed glued to the TV. The only bad thing is that annoying doorbell between scenes.
Great Movie!
By Jena the Dog Lover
from Cedarpines Park, CA
This movie is great! My dog jumps up and starts running around during the part with the agility trials. I wouldn't dare leave it running while I'm gone because my dog is big and gets super excited during the agility trials. I'd hate to come home and find my house destroyed because my dog tried to have her own private agility trials while watching the movie.
The Movie for Dogs
By None
from Nevada
The door bell made my dogs go crazy barking and running to the door jumping up and down. They wouldn't watch any more of the movie just barked at the door....

Published on: Monday, July 2, 2012
The Minnesota State Bar Association honored University of St. Thomas School of Law Director of Career and Professional Development Kendra Brodin with the President's Award at its annual meeting on June 22, 2012. Brodin received the award for her work as the founding chairperson of Committee 36. Committee 36 is a program launched by the Minnesota State Bar Association to help recent law graduates with the unique professional challenges of the first 36 months of law practice. The committee connects new lawyers with individuals in the legal community to support their development. The committee also provides resources and educational and social programming to support new members of the profession.
"Committee 36 is tackling the big issues for students after they graduate including finding the right position, managing their debt, and making connections," Brodin said. According to Brodin, "As the market place has changed and gotten more difficult, there is an even greater emphasis on the need for lawyers to create and maintain effective relationships. Committee 36 is a natural extension of my work at the University of St. Thomas School of Law because the committee provides the next step in a continuum of professional development that begins in law school and continues throughout a lawyer's career. I appreciate the School of Law supporting me in the work with the bar association."
The MSBA's President's Award is the only award selected by the bar president. All other bar awards are selected by bar committees. The President's Award recognizes outstanding service to the Association and is given annually.
Brodin has served as the Director of Career and Professional Development at the University of St. Thomas School of Law since June of 2011.

- JudeDined on 11/7/2014The food was good, not too busy the night we went. The only thing, was they were short on staff and our waiter took a long time to take our order.Special Features:
- Classic DependableNotsofastVIPDined on 10/21/2014Since I stay at the Omni regularly, I dine at Fireside fairly frequently. Food is always interesting and good - this is a great place for business meetings.Special Features:
- Before theater small bitesLivesinWaikikiDined on 10/3/2014My husband and I met my friend at the Fireside in the Omni Berkshire for just a few hours before we had to leave for the theater. We were treated so well and the small plates we ordered were delicious - it is up there in price but well worth it. We will go back again when we are in town next year.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- hotel dinnerDrRobinVIPDined on 8/7/2014Staying at the Omni Berkshire and just wanted to grab dinner without having to go to far. The menu is limited but covered the major food categories. The portion sizes were large. Especially enjoyed the caesar's salad.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 195 reviews are from the Fireside at Omni Berkshire reviews archive.
- Good food, nice selection.Pgh1117Dined on 7/27/2014Tasty, moderately priced food for NYC. The service could use a little work. I asked for a hotter cup of coffee and they returned with a coffee cup that had clearly been microwaved because the ceramic cup was very very hot. If you're going to have breakfast definitely get the buffet it has lots of selection and is high-quality. Generally the food as well prepared and tasty, overall good hotel restaurant.I would recommend this to a friend.
- SolidSteveVIPDined on 7/22/2014Expensive, but good food. Service was excellent and it was easy to chat because it is not too loud.Special Features:
- food is just so-soOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 7/16/2014The location is convenient and inside the restaurant is very nice. Unfortunately, I found the food to be so-so and overpriced for what it is. The BLT sandwich was mostly bread and really was subpar. The dessert sampling was just ok. There were small samples of red velvet cake, cheese cake and several other items. All were forgettable and were nothing special at all.
- Business lunchjadedDined on 7/8/2014This place has long served as my midtown "lunch club"Special Features:
- Smores are the highlightKristieVIPDined on 5/25/2014Be careful if you come here on a Sunday, they have a very very limited menu. The burger sliders are actually one burger cut into 4 and put on store bought potato rolls. The only thing really noteworthy here is the table smores, which you roast over a little fire pot at your table, very cute, but wouldn't come back just for that.
- A nice quiet mealTravel2EatVIPDined on 5/7/2014When we sat down and started talking the waiter just barged in to ask if we were ready to order.. Then when we needed him to take the order and at the end to pay, he was no where in sight... Good food but very very poor service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Food, Great RestaurantNataliad01Dined on 4/17/2014The Fireside is a great restaurant for any occasion. I have been here a couple of times, and each time the service and the food has been incredible. The staff is very friendly and dedicated to giving the guest the best dining experience possible. The food was very good and arrived soon after it was ordered. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and elegant. I will be returning to dine here very soon!Special Features:
- Excellent food, nice presentationOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 4/11/2014Excellent food, nice presentation and great service.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place for a nice lunch.RacingaroundtownDined on 4/4/2014Great place for a nice lunch. You can actually have a conversation with the people at the table and hear them! Food was delicious; the reviews I read about their fish tacos were right on point. Salads and sandwiches were also enjoyed by all. A cozy, intimate restaurant which I would highly recommend for lunch or dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Could be betterOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 3/23/2014I've dined at other Omni properties and was looking forward to having a good dining experience at the Omni Berkshire. At the Berkshire I experienced an unhappy server, dirty dishes and staff arguing on the dining floor. I ordered soup that tasted as if it had been microwaved. (the center of the dish was warm and the exterior cool) I requested a cocktail for brunch and when I noticed the server's perplexed look I began to tell him the cocktail's ingredients He cut me off and told me that the bartender would know. Five minutes later the server returned stating the bartender had never heard of the drink and wanted to know the ingredients.
- Fabulous Food and ServiceCherylVIPDined on 3/18/2014I try to visit Fireside on every trip to New York for drinks and appetizers. It's a great place to meet friends and the surf tacos are a must. The service is always amazing and I will continue to come back!
- Love this placeTTD5371VIPDined on 3/11/2014I have been coming to Fireside for over two years now and I look forward to every visit. The menu is so fantastic, not really sure where to begin, but I'll start with apps. Many times I have gone with friends for drinks and appetizers, the surf tacos are the BEST fish tacos I have ever had and I've plenty. Pizzas are incredible with whole wheat dough available. Salads are delicious and the two handed BLTA is awesome! You really cant go wrong at this place - but rumor has it that they are taking away Fireside (where there is no fire) and putting in another steak house - just what the neighborhood needs :( So get yourself over there ASAP and enjoy!Special Features:
- Low key and fantasticStellarBexDined on 2/28/2014Fireside is a great low key place. It feels hidden although it's connected to a hotel. The food was fantastic. Get the burger - it was the best I've ever had. Our waiter was delightful and brought us complimentary dessert.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Beware the BuffetCLB6VIPDined on 2/22/2014While the hotel attached to the restaurant was amazing (Omni Berkshire), the restaurant left something to be desired. If you do go for breakfast, be sure to order from the menu. My fiance and I paid for the $32 breakfast buffet (which comes to $40 after they include tax and tip), but it definitely left something to be desired. We arrived for our 10am seating to what looked like a great buffet. Once I investigated, the eggs were runny and the few pancakes that were left were hard and crunchy on the edges. The reason I say order from the menu is because when her omelet came out, it looked and tasted great! So word to the wise, avoid the buffet and order from the menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MediocreOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 2/14/2014Service wasn't the best, waiter didn't know the menu and wasn't very attentive. Food was mediocre at best. Over priced.
- Great last minute find!GregDined on 12/31/2013Excellent food and the waiter Thomas was great. Everyone loved what they ordered and the drinks were enjoyable. I would come here again in a heartbeat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place for a special occasionFish4nlDined on 12/26/2013Went to dine for X-mas. Nice and friendly staff, the food was delicious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good breakfast buffet BUTChillEDogDined on 12/25/2013We went on Christmas day 2013 for breakfast buffet. Not out-of-this-world but the food was definitely better than the average buffet. Waiters took forever to bring water/coffee/juice. What was really astonishing is the automatic 18% gratuity that was added. There were 4 of us... And it was a buffet...
- Nice spur of the moment spot!DaleBVIPDined on 12/20/2013The menu is very healthy, creative, delicious, and the portions are just right. The waitstaff is always friendly. If you need a place that is midtown, quiet (you might not notice it because the entrance is on the street not off the avenue) and much more than a "cafe" table atmosphere then this is the place. The only thing that would make it (or keeps it from becoming a) a perfect business or a sophisticated dining experience is if they could successfully separate it from the lobby for more privacy. That's not a negative. It's just to let diners know what to expect from the physical spot. You're not immediately off the lobby but depending on where you sit you could be slightly aware of hotel guest traffic. It's not bad, just saying.
- kid's menuaNYCgalVIPDined on 12/19/2013Went to Radio City with the grandkids. Walked a few blocks east and happily was out of the tourist scene. Our table for 7 was being set. The room was filled with noisy holiday celebrants but we were able to talk and enjoy our meals. The room was really hopping. The prices are fair for mid town and the Childrens menu was a real plus. We ordered dessert and after a very long wait were told they had run out of chocolate and kindly offered to comp our new dessert orders. The staff was hardworking and very professional. The kitchen was a bit slow. My family was pleased with my choice. I will definitely go back.Special Features:
- A great find! Casual, cozyOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 12/15/2013A great find! Casual, cozy and so accommodating. We took our children here before the Radio City Christmas Show. Walkable from Grand Central, close to Rockefeller Center. Food was very good. Kid friendly menu. Yummy desserts. Wait staff was so attentive and kind.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Total packageLongislandgirlDined on 12/14/2013The food was delicious & priced within reason for NYC. Despite the restaurant offering a kids menu, it still had a mature, adult like atmosphere with romantic lighting and it made us all feel comfortable. Our kids are 11yrs old, (so they behave well). They were happy with the food - as were my hubby and I. The rice bowl and calamari were terrific. Only negative, the bar server seemed to be alone, (approx 7-8 tables at once) and he definately gave us decent service. We would've had another round of drinks, had he had the time to stop by more than 4 times in our visit, (take drink order ; Take dinner order; give us more water; & drop check). He was quite busy. OVERALL: We'd go there again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, Great AtmosphereSoonerFanDined on 12/4/2013We were looking for a place to go with our team of seven people. We are international, so wanted something that would appeal to a variety of tastes. We were able to reserve a room at the Fireside Grill quickly. They placed us in a semi-private room which was perfect. Excellent staff. Took our order with no notes and did not make a mistake. All the food was very good. I do recommend the Smores served over an actual 'fireside grill' (hot charcoals).Special Features:
- Great experienceClaireBDined on 11/23/2013We went as a group and took platters to share, everything was delicious for a reasonable price. The inside of the restaurant was very nice, and service was great. Central location.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect setting for business lunchDCvisitorDined on 11/6/2013Enjoyed a reasonably priced lunch (by New York City standards) in between business meetings in midtown. I would highly recommend -- all aspects were very good from food to setting to ability to conduct discussions with business colleagues.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great spotLSANYCDined on 9/9/2013The service at Fireside was very accommodating and they worked with us to make a group event successful. The food was delightful so make sure to order enough platters to satisfy your guests. Note: The platters are smaller than expected so you probably need at least 10 platters for about 25-30 guests.Special Features:
- Lunch palsTravellingmaxVIPDined on 8/12/2013We meet at the Fireside once a month for lunch. The food is always good. This past visit was feeling like the salmon salad and it had been removed from the menu. Had the Ceasar with chicken and it was an enjoyable meal.Special Features:
- decent food, formal atmosphereOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/8/2013I came here with a friend during restaurant week. The food wasn't all too impressive, and the seating was in the middle of a hotel lobby. It didn't feel like a restaurant, and its classy sophisticated nature had a calm atmosphere to it. No privacy, however, it being in the middle of a lobby and all. Waiters were mild-friendly because they knew we were college students.Special Features:
- Not a bad option for thoseJockWuVIPDined on 7/23/2013Not a bad option for those staying at the Omni and don't want to go far to find a bite. Of course, just beyond the hotel is Midtown Manhattan, with its plethora of choices. Food is odd mix of Mediterranean/Asian,but quite tasty if a little pricey. Ambience is typical modern hotel eatery style.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- was my first time here anddiningproVIPDined on 7/23/2013was my first time here and will DEFINITELY RETURN.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great setting, casual but elegantTrevDined on 7/11/2013Brought a customer there and we had a great early lunch (sat us at 11:45). Good atmosphere, casual. Molding décor a little odd, but very nice. Food was excellent. Definitely a bit pricey at $130 for four so be ready for that.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Breakfast meetingKateDined on 6/12/2013Ambience was great and food was very good, attentive service. Have had several client meetings here as well as social gatherings for breakfast and lunch.Special Features:
- Service let me down this time!OpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 6/4/2013I have been to Fireside many times (my company has a special deal). While the service is generally slow, this is something I am prepared to work around given the convenience, nice space and good food. This time the service was not only slow but rude and abrupt. One of my colleagues was offered "chicken soup" verbally by the waiter. When a server brought "tortilla soup" she said it was not for her, because she asked for "chicken soup". This led to a conflict between the server and the waiter in earshot of the whole table. A minute later, the waiter explained that the tortilla soup was in fact chicken soup. He left and then the server rudely dumped the soup back in front of my colleague announcing "tortilla soup".Special Features:
- Not so hotbeenthereVIPDined on 6/1/2013Be careful as reservations are subject to being cancelled without warning.
- Great Find!OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 4/21/2013This place was absolutely outstanding. Food was tasty and service was on-point. Will definitely be back to visit Fireside again. The Surf Tacos were delicious!Special Features:
- less than ideal seating forJmmNycVIPDined on 4/5/2013less than ideal seating for a group of 5. bench seating with worn out cushioning was not appropriate for a business breakfast setting

These days we're bombarded with celebrities bringing out their own clothing lines, but we were still surprised to discover Rita Ora's take on the phenomenon. The singer is seen posing in a leather varsity jacket in her latest Instagram photo which is perfectly normal except for the fact that the garment is still on its hanger and hung up on a rail. "Ready to wear Rita Ora Spring Summer 2013" the caption reads - expected to fly off the shelves!
While Rita is all hung up, Beyoncé looks super happy to be hanging out in her Instagram pic. Siting outside what looks like a tourist tat shop, complete with tacky sunglasses and slogan tees, the pop superstar wears one of her signature off-duty looks including skinny jeans, an oversized jacket and bright red Isabel Marant trainers. The must-have footwear have become a staple for stars including Bey, Miranda Kerr and Kim Kardashian.
Cara Delevingne is also a fan of the sportswear trend, but in a video to promote the latest issue of i-D Magazine the model strips to her birthday suit. She told fans "Watch me doing a very special ZIP tease". You can see it here.
And finally, Kim Kardashian sure loves toying with her followers. First she had faux bangs, then she had real bangs, and now she's experimenting with aqua blue blue eyes. That's quite a lot of effort to match pupils to dress.

Simpson: Music for Brass
Archive Service Download currently discountedCDA66449
No 1: Scherzo: Presto
No 2: Intermezzo: Allegro placido
No 3: Elegy: Mesto, sempre non vibrato
No 4: Fantasia: Allegro irato
The sanguine temperament crashes through life with irrepressible enthusiasm. Obstacles stop him only for a moment, and he goes roaring on as if nothing happened.
The phlegmatic temperament is placid, not readily upset. It is not stupid or bovine (as is sometimes supposed) but it cannot be easily ruffled. Here it is seen to be unperturbed by a considerable disturbance from the timpani and snare drum.
The melancholic nature is not merely lugubrious. It is deep-feeling, serious and dignified. There is something grand and courageous in its gloom and strength and in its willingness to face grim facts.
The choleric man is quick to anger, but is not simply vituperative – he has in him good and generous qualities, but even when he is calm something is smouldering inside him, ready to burst into flame.
Each temperament is dedicated to a friend of the composer, respectively Martin Anderson, Dick Edwards, Robert Barnes, and John and Sylvia Brooks. The work is an organic whole, the closest Simpson approached to a fully fledged four-movement symphony for brass band, with two explosive outer movements surrounding two calmer ones. Certainly its bold design and grand conception suggest a work of truly symphonic dimensions. The Four Temperaments was completed in 1983.
