"Ensemble Gaudior also has a nice sense of energy, and I enjoy their nuanced performances of these works….a spirited and enthusiastic performance."
Fanfare Magazine, May 2013
"imaginative", "stylish", "expressive delicacy…"
Nicholas Anderson, BBC Music Magazine
" Vigor and effusion…. MacCracken used her gorgeous violin to solid effect,
helping bring color and shape to each score."
– Daniel Ginsberg
Based in Washington, DC, Ensemble Gaudior is dedicated to performing masterpieces of chamber music from the Baroque and Classical eras, using instruments from those periods or careful modern copies. By presenting this repertoire to modern concert audiences, we hope to contribute to the process of moving our world toward greater harmony. (The name Gaudior is borrowed from the musical unicorn in Madeleine L'Engle's book A Swiftly Tilting Planet, who time-travels through the universe joyfully harmonizing with the music of the stars and planets.)
Founded in 2000 by Alexandra MacCracken, the group is built around a core instrumentation of baroque violin and basso continuo, but frequently collaborates with guest artists in order to allow a greater variety of repertoire. Ensemble Gaudior performs regularly throughout the greater Baltimore-Washington area and has presented several Fringe Concerts at the Boston Early Music Festival. The group's concerts include brief interludes of spoken commentary as well as carefully-researched program notes to edify, enlighten and inspire audiences. Post-concert receptions to meet the artists and learn more about the featured works add to the warm and intimate style of Ensemble Gaudior.
Mission Statement:
My chief end in presenting these concerts can be summed up in J.S. Bach's motto "Soli Deo Gloria": to celebrate, glorify, and enjoy God forever, who included music among all the gifts of creation.

Faith Under Fire: Betrayed by a Thing Called Love : Imagine the joy of being swept away by your very own Prince Charming, and the excitement of marrying him. Imagine starting a life together. Imagine discovering a side of him that you never knew existed - a controlling and explosive side. Imagine watching him slowly, inexplicably deteriorate before your eyes. Imagine his doctors telling you, "He has AIDS." That was the reality for LaJoyce Brookshire, and in this page-turning, astoundingly moving memoir, she tells the full story of her marriage to her first husband, who knew he was HIV positive at the time they wed but kept this information hidden from her - until his body betrayed him. Imagine how you would react. What would you do? Contemplate murder? Divorce? Live in denial? Or would you turn to God? That's what LaJoyce chose to do in the face of her husband's health crisis - and every other challenge life has presented.

Governor Bill Haslam says he's doing his part to help lure Peyton Manning to Tennessee. The legendary NFL quarterback played college ball here, and is said to be meeting with top Titans officials as he looks for a new home.
Haslam was asked at an event last night if he had any details on recruiting Manning, drawing chuckles, and then this:
HASLAM: "I texted him to say 'free temporary housing in the governor's residence if you come to Nashville.'" (laughter)
INGRAM: "Did you really do that? Because he is a friend, right?"
HASLAM: "He– It'd be terrific if he came here. Peyton is the real deal, he really is. He'd be great on the field, but he's a great guy."
Haslam was speaking with his longtime adviser Tom Ingram at Lipscomb University. Ingram also asked the first-term governor whether he'd like to be a running mate for Mitt Romney, whom Haslam has endorsed. Haslam answered he could think of "about a hundred names" of people more qualified than himself.
Asked to relate something no one's heard or read about himself, Haslam offers a story about rear-ending a state trooper during a snowstorm:

"For a Lifetime"
Russell and Julie Lovemore started "Safari Trails International" in 1998 and from its humble beginnings it has become a major player in the Southern African hunting industry. Offering hunts all over Southern Africa, with South Africa and Mozambique being the main focus.
Russell is a sixth generation South African rancher who started hunting at a young age, having been introduced to it by his grandfather. Russell has been hunting professionally since 1996 and has gained vast experience in both plains and dangerous game. He has hunted in South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Cameroon.
With experienced and seasoned professional hunters, you the hunter, are assured of a great safari. Our aim is to provide each and every hunter with an ethical, fair chase hunt that will not only provide a challenge but also great trophies and memories and experiences "For a Lifetime"
Safari Trails International (STI) holds the hunting rights too many thousands of acres in the Eastern Cape where we can offer over 40 species to both the first time hunter as well as the seasoned Safari hunters. Although based out of our lodge on our Family property, we also utilize a range of other beautiful lodges and camps allowing us to spend more time hunting and less time travelling. We have always encouraged family hunts and welcome young hunters and first-time hunters.
It is time again to expand STI and we are currently in discussions with our good friend and well known professional hunter and outfitter Andrew Harvey of "Andrew Harvey Safaris" to form a partnership. Andrew and his wife Mandy will certainly bring much expertise to the benefit of Safari Trails International. We hope to finalize the merger within next year and look forward to working with them.
STI is also busy with negotiating a deal to obtain our own hunting area in Mozambique, this will enable us offer a few additional species such as leopard, Lion, Elephant, Crocodile, Hippo and more. The tiger fishing is also world class in this area. Keep a look out for further news.
We look forward to getting to know you and share our campfire with you, soon!!

Fellowship accompanies new learning spaces to be completed Aug. 1
For three weeks this July, 12 Case Western Reserve University faculty members will immerse themselves in updated pedagogies, new teaching methods and modern academic technologies. The 12 faculty members were selected from more than 20 highly qualified applicants for the first Information Technology Services (ITS) Active Learning Fellowship. The recipients are:
Fellows will design or completely remodel their course with techniques that require active involvement by the students and the instructor. Technology will play a supporting role and enhance learning without hindering instruction. The adoption of 21st-century teaching methods remains a cornerstone of CWRU's next strategic plan, which also champions the creation of active learning environments at the university.
ITS and the Office of the Provost have partnered to transform two campus rooms—Room 125 in Mather Memorial and Room 310 in Nord Hall—into modern learning spaces. The division also is collaborating with the Case School of Engineering on room 310, which will allow it to function as both a classroom and an event space. Crews started the deconstruction phase of the project in mid-June, and the full transformation is expected to be complete by Aug. 1.
Once finished, the rooms will offer participants flexible seating options and ample table space for mobile devices. Writeable walls, dry-erase boards and touchscreen LCD monitors will facilitate group collaboration and discussions. Both spaces will be equipped with software and robust network connectivity that will enable collaborators to wirelessly share or extend their screens on a group display.
Watch the ITS Newsletter throughout the summer for continued coverage of the redesign. Periodic updates also will be posted to the project's blog: Redesigning Classrooms and Enhancing the Student Experience.

It is everyone's constitutional right to expect to feel safe regarding their personal wellbeing and secure in their homes and communities. It is the basic duties of the sheriff's office to guarantee these rights; to protect and serve the people of Rush County. If elected Sheriff I will carry out these duties with integrity, professionalism and commitment to protect you and your families.
My decision to run for Sheriff is due in part to the caring and understanding nature of the people who live here. Having been raised in a rural farming community, I witnessed tremendous acts of kindness expressed to others in the community during my life. On several occasions' people of the farming community gathered to help another farmer who had fallen on hard times. They came with their own equipment to plant or harvest that farmer's crops with no expectations of reimbursement for time or expenses. As an Indiana State Police Commander in 2008, I witnessed the same generosity shown to the Moscow community after a tornado had damaged or destroyed a great number of homes and property in the area. Again, the people from all corners of the county who committed their labor and equipment to help fellow neighbors devastated by the storm was overwhelming. Citizens from every community in this county have carried out acts such as these and more when others have been in a time of need. These events had a profound effect on my views about the character of the people who live in Rush County and why I appreciate living here.
Being elected as Sheriff would not only be an honor but would also provide me with the opportunity to give back to a community that has been a wonderful and safe environment to raise a family and a place I proudly call home.

This week, budget hearings begin at the Tennessee state capitol. They come at a time when it appears economists overshot how much tax revenue would come in to fund state government.
Tennessee operates primarily on the sales tax. And until recently, collections have been above projections. So the state's economists who advise the governor chose to aim even higher. Turns out, it was too high.
Tax revenues have missed in the three months of the fiscal year so far, down roughly $2 million from budgeted estimates but still growing over the previous year by 3.5 percent.
University of Tennessee economist Bill Fox says consumers may have fundamentally changed their buying habits since the recession of 2008.
"They have gotten more conservative with their spending behavior. They have de-leveraged – is the word we've heard used a lot. Consumers haven't built back up credit card debt."
With the rate the economy is growing, Fox says he would have thought Tennesseans would be buying more stuff, and the state would be reaping more in sales taxes.

it was 50years ago but the public has the right to know, the kennedy are will known to their privacy
Photograph by Henry Burroughs, AP
Published November 21, 2013
For the first time in the 50 years since their making, recordings of John F. Kennedy's friends talking about him after his death have been published in a public radio show called "We Knew JFK: Unheard Stories From the Kennedy Archives."
"The tapes were hiding in plain sight," said Stephen Atlas, director of the project, which was distributed by Public Radio Exchange (PRX) on November 18. John F. Kennedy was shot and killed 50 years ago on November 22.
In the tapes, celebrities, politicians, bus drivers, staffers, journalists, veterans, and musicians talk about their friend John in the months after his death in 1963. They talk surprisingly candidly about his warmth, sense of humor, political drive, intellect, womanizing, profanity (always in private), charmed life, and the memorable moments they shared with him.
In the recordings, Thomas "Tip" O'Neill (who later became a long-time Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives) talked about his first impression of a young Kennedy, decades before. "Jack Kennedy looked to me like a boy just out of school," O'Neill said.
But when Kennedy began campaigning for U.S. Congress in the late 1940s, his charisma was unstoppable. O'Neill, who represented a different district in Massachusetts, remembered saying, "Thanks be to God I'm not running against Jack Kennedy."
Glenda Manzi, managing producer of the radio show, said it surprised her how much listening to the tapes brought JFK to life. "We didn't uncover any national secrets. The historians have been quoting from the transcripts for years," she said. "But to read the transcripts and then listen to people talk about JFK, you really come away with a sense of who he is—he was a really complex guy."
Meeting Jackie and Sparring With Opponents
One of the stars of the tapes, Charles L. Bartlett, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who would later become a close friend of Kennedy, tells of the mishaps of matchmaking in trying to introduce Jacqueline "Jackie" Bouvier to Kennedy. Bartlett first tried to steer them together at a wedding but failed, and had to make another attempt at a later date. He also tells of JFK's earliest days as a bit of a slacker in the U.S. Congress.
Canadian journalist Max Freedman also mentioned Kennedy's days as a representative. "He didn't work very hard at the job," said Freedman.
But when Kennedy was elected U.S. senator in 1952, Bartlett noticed a significant change. "He became a much more serious fellow," said Bartlett.
Princess Grace is heard remembering JFK asking her about a designer gown she was wearing at a White House event. Her voice is lovely and elegant and summons the image of Camelot that was JFK's legacy.
Political rival Barry Goldwater quotes the president during the Bay of Pigs crisis as saying to him, "Do you want this [bleeping] job?"
Finding the Tapes
When Atlas stumbled across the massive collection of audiotapes—more than 1,200—he assumed it had been previously mined for other shows. "I couldn't believe no one had ever published these before. I kept thinking I was going to discover that they had," he said.
But in fact, the tapes, which began to be made just months after the president's death, had never been heard by the general public. They were created as a public record by the Kennedy family and a team of interviewers, funded by the Carnegie Corporation.
As soon as the interviews were completed, they were transcribed and the transcription was sent to the interviewee to review and edit. The tapes were never considered an actual record themselves, although interviewees signed contracts indicating any restrictions.
"They were only intended to be background research for the transcripts," said Atlas. The tapes were dutifully retained, however, and all of them came to rest in the Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Boston.
When Atlas and his team began work on the project about six months ago, they had a daunting challenge to select and clear the recordings for use. The presidential library curators first had to review the audio's contract. If the contract allowed for public use, they then checked the recording against the transcript and determined whether there were any changes. If additional permission was needed, the interviewee or heir would have to be tracked down.
After skimming through hundreds of the transcripts and then listening to about 50 of the tapes, Atlas and Manzi narrowed the field to the final 25. The recent government shutdown interrupted the project toward the end, but the team had enough content by then.
The JFK Library mailed the recordings to the Cutting Corporation's Archival Sound Labs in Bethesda, Maryland, for digitizing. Aaron Coe, manager of the labs, handled the old tapes. They were "one-quarter-inch open reel magnetic tape recordings," Coe said, and were "mostly recorded half track (two discrete mono programs) at 3¾ inches per second, although there were some full track (single mono program) and 7½ inches per second tapes."
Remembering History
Permissions were another story. "Most of the people [in the tapes] are dead," said Manzi. Finding heirs, let alone their contact information, was challenging. "It was like being a private detective," she said. Bartlett, for example, one of the few still alive, was out of the country and could eventually be reached only through his daughter, who Manzi discovered through an article in a gardening magazine.
Robert MacNeil agreed to host the show. MacNeil, then with NBC News, was a member of the White House press corps during the Kennedy administration and was in the motorcade when Kennedy was shot. Looking for a pay phone, he ran into the Texas School Book Depository to file the story and may have passed Lee Harvey Oswald running out.
MacNeil "became in effect one of our storytellers, contributing observations and anecdotes of his own that enriched the hour," said Atlas.
The work has resulted in an astonishing record of candid reminiscences of one of the most famous American politicians of the 20th century.
Library staff rose to the challenge, and Tom Putnam, director of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, was enthusiastic about the project. "One of the goals of the Kennedy Library is to provide access to the public to our holdings, and we're pleased to know that the oral histories of those individuals who knew President Kennedy will reach a large audience through this program," he said.
The full broadcast can be heard at PRX or at the radio show's website.
it was 50years ago but the public has the right to know, the kennedy are will known to their privacy
I think you should write an article about Lyman Lemnitzer and "operation Northwoods". Lyman Lemnitzer was SACEUR at SHAPE (NATO, France then Belgium). He was the chief of the "stay-behind" sections. The French "stay-behind" had most probably connections with the "SAC"(Service d'Action Civique) and drug traffickers. Lyman Lemnitzer may have used them for the assassination.
JFK was a dangerous man. He who draws back the curtain to let the light of day upon a transparent government is a hero. Kennedy was murdered for standing up for an America against war profiteering and for the freedom of every individual person. I paid homage to him on the 50th anniversary of his passing today with a portrait of our country's greatest President at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2013/11/in-dark-50-years-after-jfks.html
Parkland Hospital is not only the place where JFK died, but where his assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, died two days later, and also where Oswald's own assassin, Jack Ruby, also died four years later.
Was it a conspiracy that all these people died in the same place, or was it something about Parkland that caused all these people to coincidentally die in the same place?
Parkland has come under fire recently from government regulators, at one point losing its Medicare status, and is currently on 7 straight years of federal probation for patient care lapses and fraud. Many patients who come to Parkland die for no reason at all.
It's no coincidence. You can read about the intriguing back story about Parkland and the JFK assassination on the website, "The Parkland Orgy of Death."

The API report is bearish across the board with many participants now looking at this morning's EIA inventory report with much more interest. The oil market is lower heading into the US trading session and ahead of the EIA oil inventory report at 10:30 AM today. The market is always cautious on trading on the API report and prefers to wait for the more widely watched EIA report due out this morning. The API reported a build of about 2 million barrels of crude oil with PADD 2 stocks building by 0.3 million barrels. On the week gasoline stocks increased by about 2.3 million barrels while distillate fuel stocks increased by about 0.3 million barrels.
With geopolitics less of an issue or price driver than it was last week the main oil price drivers are likely to be any and all macroeconomic data on the global economy with oil fundamentals a close second. This week's oil inventory report could be a modest price catalyst especially if the actual outcome is outside of the range of industry projections.
My projections for this week's inventory report are summarized in the following table. I am expecting the US refining sector to increase marginally as the refining sector continues to return to normal from maintenance. I am expecting a modest build in crude oil inventories, a build in gasoline and a small build in distillate fuel stocks as the weather was only marginally colder than normal over the east coast during the report period. I am expecting crude oil stocks to increase by about 1.2 million barrels. If the actual numbers are in sync with my projections the year over year comparison for crude oil will now show a surplus of 41 million barrels while the overhang versus the five year average for the same week will come in around 42.1 million barrels.
I am expecting a modest build in crude oil stocks in Cushing, Ok even as the Seaway pipeline is still pumping. However, refinery maintenance programs in the region are resulting in a building in crude oil stocks. This will be bullish for the Brent/WTI spread in the short term as the spread is currently trading at a relatively high premium to Brent and very near the highs recently hit. The slow return from maintenance in the North Sea as well as the evolving situation in the Middle East have been the main drivers that have resulted in the Jan Brent/WTI spread still trading around the $23/bbl level as of this writing. The widening of the spread should begin to ease once the North Sea returns to a more normal production level and the situation in the Middle East quiets down.
With refinery runs expected to increase by 0.3% I am expecting a build in gasoline stocks. Gasoline stocks are expected to increase by 1.0 million barrels which would result in the gasoline year over year deficit coming in around 8.4 million barrels while the deficit versus the five year average for the same week will come in around 4.5 million barrels.
Distillate fuel is projected to decrease by 0.5 million barrels. If the actual EIA data is in sync with my distillate fuel projection inventories versus last year will likely now be about 25.2 million barrels below last year while the deficit versus the five year average will come in around 30.3 million barrels.

|I am just starting to get myself organized. I'm cleaning a closet today... Now I can actually see through to the carpet! I have about two years worth of Reader's Digest magazines that I don't know what to do with. I want to keep them so I can look back over them in the future. Not sure I ever will though. Is there a clever way to hang or organize magazines that wouldn't take up too much space in a one bedroom apartment, or should I just toss them?

|Just get rid of them.
Since you haven't made the time to look at them for the past two years, chances are you never will.
|I take them at least 4 at a time to anyplace I have to wait--DMV, Kaiser, subways in a foreign country, airports. I also leave a stack in my car. I read them again & tear out anything really earth moving and leave them there when I leave. I distributed 20 years worth of National Geographics that way. Now any magazine over 2 months old is liable to find itself in a new home. Surprisingly when I leave them at Kaiser when I come out of my appointment, they are all being read by somebody.

|How about donating them to the library? Our local one has a display up front with giveaway magazines. I both take and receive from there! LOL
|I agree. If you haven't read them yet, what makes you think you will in the future? For some reason, you have never read them at home. And if something doesn't change that makes you read them at home, they'll sit and collect more dust. So get rid of them. Free yourself!
If you can't force yourself to part with them all at once ... take one with you every time you will be waiting somewhere. Read through it while you wait.
I think of it as a scavenging mission. I take notes of any URLs, book titles, etc. that interest me. Something I can look up in the library or online. Often, I only end up with a few lines on a piece of note paper, instead of having to save an entire magazine.
After the scavenging mission, I leave the magazine where someone else is likely to pick it up, such as a waiting room. I pull off or cut off the address label, for security.
|If you are just starting to organize, getting in the habit of getting rid of magazines is one of the best things you can do. I will donate women's magazines to our thrift store. They sell them for fifty cents. But now, more often than not, I pitch them right into the recycle container.
|I rip out recipes or anything else I wish to save, tear off the address, put the magazine in a box. When the box gets full, I bring it over to the waiting-room-lobby of the hospital where i get dialysis three days a week.

|Toss them now. Any info that you want to look up can easily be found on the web. Sometimes while I'm watching TV I sit with a stack of magazines and sissors scanning for recipes worth saving. Everything else goes into the recycling. Stacks of old magazines are a fire hazzard.

|I work in publishing.
Throw them out, and buy new ones ;-)
|From someone who threw out 5 years of Reader's Digests, I promise that you will never ever regret it. The world is full of new stories, new health information, new jokes, and reading matter, and it'll come our way faster than we can read it all.
I used to think I was going to miss out on some vital informative, edifying piece of literature if I didn't read everything that came my way. Then I read that it's perfectly ok to de-clutter information from our lives, and I was cured for life.
|I would through them away. I have a wicker box that I keep some magazines in and when it starts getting to full I look through it when I am watching TV and take what I want out of it if anything and pass it to my neighbor or toss it in the recycle bin. I usually read my magazines when I am waiting at the bus stop for my kids.
|There used to be magazines that I would read as soon as they came in the mail - or within a week or two. For the ones that are sitting around (I have some that are unopened from February and March!), I am not renewing when the time comes. I am taking a critical look at them; are the articles still interesting? Is most of the magazine advertising? Not renewing DOES create more junk mail, as the publisher pleads for my renewal. What is the website for getting off magazine/junk mail lists? I am tired of the clutter and the waste of paper!
Reader's Digests always go in the recylcing when the new one comes.
|Sorry to turn the tide of this thread, but you bring up an important topic: Catalogs!
Any decent company will be happy to take you off the mailing list after a single request, though you may still receive a few more catalogs, as the lists are printed far in advance. I sometimes ask to stay in the customer database, but not receive the printed catalog. If I want anything, I can still call the 800 number to order, or order online.
Some companies will sell your address to other companies. Before requesting a catalog, I carefully check their privacy policy / list sharing policy. If I do not like the terms, they do not get my business.
Some companies only rent your address. The company that sends you the catalog never sees your address. It is sent to a third party mailing house that prints it onto the catalog. Unless you order, they don't have any way to contact you a second time. Because I get so few catalogs, there have been times when I have detected a rental of my address, and yet I still called to be sure that I was correct. It's like spam. One leak of your security and it's all over.
There is an organization devoted to reducing junk mail catalogs. It is called Catalog Choice. Perhaps you won't see "your" catalogs there, but it's worth a try.

|agree w/ talley sue. toss them and buy new. (i work in publishing, too!)
we're building a new home and i frequently find pages or stories i'd like to hold onto. i break the spine and carefully slide out the pages and slip them into plastic sleeves in a notebook binder. this way i can revert back to them without saving an entire issue. i keep a recipe binder as well.
You are greek, aren´t you? (Or your DH is)

|Toss them and report it on the "I found it so freeing to get rid of" thread. I found it incredibly freeing to quit subscribing to magazines. If you ever regret your decision and find yourself in a panic the local library has a lovely corner where you can find all current and old magazines in a lovely area with comfortable chairs. Know that you can always read and relax to your hears content. And with that knowledge, you probably won't!

To its relative credit, Average Joe flips the ''Joe Millionaire'' formula on its thick head. Instead of saving the surprise for the end, it opened with a gleefully wicked trick: Ex-NFL cheerleader Melana Scantlin thought she was meeting 16 Mr. Rights, but instead she met...16 Mr. Frights! (That's not a quote from the promos, but it could be.) While most dating-show contestants are interchangeably empty shells, these guys -- a nerdy, gawky, and chubby lot -- possess actual personalities. The cast overflows with breakouts -- and I'm not just talking about all the splotchy skin.
Homely faces to watch include Dennis Luciani, a 36-year-old virgin-accountant; Zach Cohen, a 27-year-old bully-real estate broker with chronic halitosis; and Tareq Kabir, a 21-year-old egotist-professor who attempts to mesmerize Melana with fancy words: ''It is the simplicity of your complexity that's the catalyst of my infatuation.'' ''Average Joe'' alternately mocks these misfits and glorifies them as inspirational underdogs; the show wants to have its proverbial cake and eat it, too. Still, it's a helluva lot tastier than ''Millionaire'''s Southern-fried cheese.

Griffin Helps Launch 'The Little Rock Difference: Rock and ROLE'
WASHINGTON – Congressman Tim Griffin (AR-02), a member of the House Armed Services Committee, issued the following statement after helping to launch "The Little Rock Difference: Rock & ROLE" awareness campaign in conjunction with the Little Rock Air Force Base Community Council:
"Little Rock Air Force Base plays a critically important role in our nation's defense capabilities and is an integral part of Arkansas's economy, culture and family. The partnership between 'The Rock' and the community is a unique example of excellence, and, together, they are one team and responsive to the needs of each other. This is how LRAFB and the Community Council differentiate themselves from other communities with air bases and what led to the creation of 'The Little Rock Difference.' This relationship has been recognized twice in recent years by the U.S. Air Force with the prestigious Abilene Trophy. I was honored to help launch 'The Little Rock Difference,' which will help bring national attention to this success story and build on LRAFB's tradition of responsiveness, teamwork, leadership and excellence."
Rep. Griffin has worked with Little Rock Air Force Base Community Council members to develop "The Little Rock Difference: Rock & ROLE" awareness campaign. "Rock" is for "The Rock," which is the nickname of LRAFB and how the community affectionately refers to LRAFB. "Role" is for the guiding principles of "ROLE"—"Responsive," "One Team," "Leading," and "Excellence"—which the LRAFB community and the local community embody. As part of the launch, the Council unveiled a video that can be viewed here.
This week, the LRAFB Community Council was presented with the Abilene Trophy, which recognizes the community that provides the "finest support" to an Air Mobility Command unit. This is the second time the Council has received this award.

it is snowing!!
I am so excited. It won't stick and there won't be an accumulation, but there is snow falling from the sky.
If you'd like NY and NJ's you can take it too! (Not that we have any now...after a brief sojourn to winter last week we're back to fall colors and 60 degrees here.)
I love the first snow or two of the season, but driving in it is no fun. Hope you guys went out to enjoy it!!
It actually ended up sticking! I think we got more than expected.
I freaking love snow. It got a little old when we got 100+ inches last year, but I still enjoyed it.
I also loe the first ( small ) snow of the year, its when it comes every other day that it gets tiresome. It was a nice snow right before halloween

Nic Harcourt Amps Up KCSN-FM Radio Show
Beginning this weekend, Nic Harcourt will have a couple of additional co-hosts of sorts for his 88.5 FM Saturday afternoon program – The Guitar Center and Filter magazine. The focus will also shift more specifically to spotlighting emerging, unsigned talent.
Per a report by LA Times music writer Randy Lewis, the association with LA's leading musical instruments purveyor means the show title will change from Connections with Nic Harcourt to Connections Made by Guitar Center. The tweaked program will also be syndicated and made available via guitarcenter.com:
"There is more good music being made today than ever before," Harcourt said in a statement. He came to KCSN last year from KCRW-FM (89.9), where he had once been music director and host of Morning Becomes Eclectic. "If you don't have the time to troll through the vast array of music blogs, YouTube and social spaces, Connections is a place where we'll do it for you."

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Ramabitsa-Siimane, Ts'aletseng M firstname.lastname@example.com URN etd-05112006-114349 Document Title The identification of environmentally sound technologies for healthcare waste management in Lesotho Degree MSc (Environmental Technology) Department Chemical Engineering Supervisor

- systems approach

Date 2005-11-17 Availability unrestricted AbstractWaste resulting from healthcare activities is hazardous due to its potential risk of infection to healthcare workers, waste workers and the public. Many tools and approaches have been applied in waste management in developed countries, but are not suitable for application in developing countries due to their complexity and extensive data and resource requirements. WasteOpt was therefore developed and applied as an appropriate decision-making tool in the developing country context. WasteOpt comprises of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), costing and Life cycle management (LCM).
The purpose of this study was to identify environmentally sound technologies (ESTs) that minimise the risk of infection by healthcare waste (HCW) in rural clinics. Rural clinics were selected because apart from financial constraints, they are challenged by the lack of procedure, infrastructure and technologies to develop reasonable waste management plans that can be implemented within a practicable time frame. WasteOpt was applied to aid in identifying ESTs in relation to the infection risks and costs of the technologies.
Experts in waste management in Lesotho were involved in a workshop for the ranking of technologies. The overall weighting values of the rankings were converted to risk factors for individual options and for alternatives (combination of options). Risk factors were classified as low, medium and high risk. The technologies within a single class were differentiated by analysing the cost of acquiring and running the technology to qualify as ESTs. The ESTs identified for Lesotho are Engineered containers, Refrigerated engineered facility, engineered wheeled transport, detailed procedures, multi chamber incinerator, engineered pit and landfill.
Ten (10) clinics in Lesotho were also assessed as case studies using the WHO RAT. The RAT was first modified to include questions on financial management at the clinics. The calculated risk factors were applied to the case studies to assess the risk under which healthcare workers operate in those clinics. The additive minimum risk for the overall life cycle of waste was 4.0 (excluding central treatment and disposal). The clinic workers were found to be at a risk of between 1.1 x 10-4 and 7.8 x 10-5, which proves that rural clinics in Lesotho are still using inappropriate technologies.
In terms of financing for waste management, public clinics were found to have little decision-making powers over funds and had less accountability measures. CHAL clinics which are managed by churches in Lesotho had more control of funds and exhibit more accountability. All clinics had no targets for saving funds from waste management activities.
WasteOpt can be applied as a decision-making tool for HCW in Lesotho since it overcomes the barriers that inhibit environmentally sound management of HCW in developing countries.
In conclusion: WasteOpt can be applied as a decision-making tool for different types of waste by replacing HCW options with respective ones and designing a relevant questionnaire for qualitative data capture. WasteOpt can then be applied in a developing country to aid sustainable waste management decision-making. Informed decision-making helps resource poor managers to select cost-effective but low-risk options, which will be sustainable in the future.

Any baseball is beautiful. No other small package comes as close to the ideal in design and utility. It is a perfect object for a man's hand. Pick it up and it instantly suggests its purpose: it is meant to be thrown a considerable distance-thrown hard and with precisionRoger Angell
One of the beautiful things about baseball is that every once in a while you come into a situation where you want to, and where you have to, reach down and prove somethingNolan Ryan
All gardeners live in beautiful places, because they make them so.Joseph Joubert
The sounds I had heard seemed worthy to mingle with this bright and perfumed atmosphere, and to thrill the beautiful scenery around me.William Cullen Bryant
Flowers are beautiful hieroglyphics of nature, with which she indicates how much she loves usWolfgang von Geothe
Give me odorous at sunrise a garden of beautiful flowers where I can walk undisturbed.Walt Whitman
Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made By singing: -"Oh, how beautiful!" and sitting in the shade.Rudyard Kipling
Being is desirable because it is identical with Beauty, and Beauty is loved because it is Being. We ourselves possess Beauty when we are true to our own being; ugliness is in going over to another order; knowing ourselves, we are beautiful; in self-ignorance, we are ugly.Ambrose Bierce
A woman who cannot be ugly, is not beautifulKarl Kraus
In the absence of a subject with which you are passionately involved, and without the excitement that drives you to grasp it and exhaust it, you may take some beautiful pictures, but not a photographic oeuvre.Brassai
There will be times when you will be in the field without a camera. And, you will see the most glorious sunset or the most beautiful scene that you have ever witnessed. Don't be bitter because you can't record it. Sit down, drink it in, and enjoy it for what it isDeGriff
When I am working on a problem I never think about beauty. I only think about how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.Buckminster Fuller
In the anxiety to get beautiful colour harmony do not exhaust all combinations on one canvas.John F. Carlson
The most important thing I teach my kids is that you can't put your value in looks. Presence is based upon magnitude. You can pretend to have an air about you but it is quickly deflated, but you cannot deflate presence. Presence walks into a room and surrounds and fills anything that's in that room without trying to demand it, it takes it. It can come from a smile. Like I said, love makes you beautiful. What is beautiful radiates.Terrence Howard
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heartHelen Keller
The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart.Elisabeth Foley
Among men and women, those in love do not always announce themselves with declarations and vows. But they are the ones who weep when you're gone. Who miss you every single night, especially when the sky is so deep and beautiful, and the ground so very cold.Alice Hoffman
A child's world is fresh and new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement. It is our misfortune that for most of us that clear-eyed vision, that true instinct for what is beautiful and awe-inspiring, is dimmed and even lost before we reach adulthood.Rachel Carson
Nothing is beautiful, except man alone: all aesthetics rests upon this na�vet�, which is its first truth. Let us immediately add the second: nothing is ugly except the degenerating man�and with this the realm of aesthetic judgment is circumscribed.Friedrich Nietzsche
I have read in Plato and Cicero sayings that are very wise and very beautiful; but I never read in either of them: "Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden.Augustine
Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never ever the same.Flavia Weedn
The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart.Helen Keller

A Conversation With the Founder of Capsule, a 5-Star iOS/Android App: TheBeach Meets TheStreet
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- TheBeach Meets TheStreet rolls on.
Every Tuesday, expect an article that accompanies the edited version of the current week's conversation. Generally, we'll break it down into three parts:
1. An update on where we are with TheBeach Meets TheStreet, including a brief overview of past, present and future guests.
2. A discussion of the company featured in that week's episode.3. A brief look at how the present week's founder and his/her experiences relate to the larger startup and/or tech scenes. Each week we'll make improvements to TheBeach Meets TheStreet. Last time, I shot my entire conversation with Pandora (P) co-founder Tim Westergren myself. ( See the full uncut version via YouTube). For this week's presentation with Cyrus Farudi, the co-founder of Southern California startup Capsule, Manoj Rao, CEO at Media 11:11 and co-producer of TheBeach Meets TheStreet shot the episode on an iPhone 5. In weeks three and four, we'll make small, but important upgrades to the video and audio sides of the production. I enjoy the process of taking the reader/viewer on the same, organically evolving process we're navigating. Keeping it real, so to speak. In week three (Tuesday, Feb. 26), we chat with Jonathan Calmus, the 22-year old co-founder of Beverly Hills-based Cuttle. Incredibly interesting person and story. We're setting up time with the guy who co-founded StubHub, Jeff Fluhr, now founder and CEO at San Francisco's Spreecast as well as a simply huge guest who leads a public company and is one of the country's best-known and most successful serial entrepreneurs. Both coming in March. As for Capsule, the edited video (see top of this article) and uncut version at YouTube illustrate the idea well. To help explain things in this article I created my own Capsule. Based on the Apple (AAPL) and Android app store reviews Capsule has received -- most five stars -- people like it. Capsule helps you manage the photos you and your friends (or, theoretically, strangers) take at an event. The company focuses on weddings now, but can and does serve just about any event. As Capsule gains more traction, expect more partnerships (Capsule is already the official wedding app of TheKnot.com) to expand the scope of the customer it targets. Think areas such as concerts and sporting events. It's unlike social media such as Facebook (FB), however, because Capsule is completely private. You can only join a specific Capsule if the person who created it invites you. I started a Capsule that you can access to if you want to see how it works. So, if you have a wedding or other event where many different people (dozens, hundreds, even thousands) take photographs, you can give those of your choosing access to your Capsule, keeping all of that media in one place and accessible only to members of the Capsule. You control access. And you can send emails or texts to the group right from the app. I logged in using Facebook to create my Capsule, then invited myself (at my TheStreet email) as well as a friend or two. We'll bypass the email step here; in the following screenshot, all you need to do is copy the "join code" you see and use it after downloading the Capsule app to your device. Or you can simply go to this link to access my Capsule on the Web: http://trycapsule.com/dqfvt. As of this writing, there' are just two contributions to my Capsule. I took pictures of my computer screen while I was pounding out this article. Feel free to join and add more. Just keep it clean and such. Farudi is a strong guest. Simply put, we refuse to have a founder on unless he or she is willing to get personal and be transparent. In the conversation, he covers everything from the actual process of how a startup secures funding, both early on and as things progress and mature. Farudi sets the tone well. He was really the ideal guest as we start to shed light on the Southern California startup scene. Follow @rocco_thestreet -- Written by Rocco Pendola in Santa Monica, Calif.

Dr. Babak Litkouhi's Ratings
Dr. Litkouhi and his staff are wonderful they were a true blessing to my mother today for her procedure .

Dr. L. is very kind, caring, very soft spoken,and gentle. He cares for his patients a lot. He explained everything to me very carefully and told me my options. He spent a lot of time with me and made sure I understood everything. He is an amazing physician and I highly recommend him to all my friends and relatives.

I do not know how good the doctor is because I was not able to make an appointment. I called to the office couple of times was each time asked for the same information and when office staff eventually called me back in the evening I had been told that to get an appointment I need to submit all my medical records from my doctors first. Extremely disappointed with the customer service and unprofessional office staff.

Last year my mother went into the ER for a hernia and it was discovered that she has ovarian cancer. Dr. Litkouhi performed her surgery. As someone who's worked in the hospital setting for years I have to say that the level of care he provided is unprecedented. He understood how much she meant to me and ensured I was kept in the loop of every detail. He's caring, soft spoken, and understanding 3 qualities every family needs when facing cancer. God couldn't have placed a better doctor to care for my mother, I know she's getting the best care possible. Thank you and your staff for your continued care.

If you need to have gyno surgery, you DEFINITELY want this guy to be there in the operating room with you. He is on top of his oncology and is a HOT ticket in the field. I had a uterine fibroid tumor removed and am satisfied with the results. He knows what he is doing and will help to make you feel relaxed and comfortable. He's also EXTREMELY neat and clean. Highly recommend.

I had never had surgery before, and I was not very accustomed to being around Doctors. My Gynocologist sent me to Dr Litkouhi in 2010. I had Grade One Endometrial Cancer and Dr Litkouhi performed a Full Hysterectomy at Beth Israel Hospital in Boston. My experience with "Dr. L" was WONDERFUL. He was easy to talk to, did not use Jargon that I couldn't understand, and made my surgery experience so much easier. He called me at home the night before the surgery, and called me again to follow up a week later. I was diagnosed with Cancer on November 2, had the surgery on November 16, then Dr Litkouhi called me at home on November 23 to tell me that I had a clean bill of health. I saw Dr Litkouhi only a few times after the surgery, and then I was very sad to be told that he was leaving for another hospital. It seems strange to say that surgery was an "enjoyable" experience, but Dr Litkouhi made it that way for me.

My medical plan is obviously not the best so that is the reason for cost to me. However, the doctor and staff were wonderful. Kind, calm and assuring.

I want to start by saying how thorough and caring Dr. Litkouhi is . I came to him after having surgery 8mths prior for a complete hysterectomy. He was able to remove my ovaries, cevix and cysts and endometriosis . which was left by previous surgeon. He was very professional. He followed up with me at home to see how I was . He was amazing. Wish i went to him in the 1st place. The best by far.

Dr. Litkouhi performed robotic surgery on me. I had cervical cancer and had a radical hysterectomy. He is the best. He called me at home to check up on me and kept me informed of my results. I had him as my doctor when he was at Hackensack Hospital in NJ. Great doctor.

How can you tell if a meeting is going well? It's probably on the right course if your prospect's doing most of the talking. Some new entrepreneurs believe a sales meeting calls for them to razzle-dazzle the prospect, throwing out a lot of information as quickly as possible. On the contrary, unless you're making a presentation, a prospect meeting requires you to ask good questions, listen thoughtfully to the answers, and respond with benefit-oriented information that shows prospects how your business can help them achieve their goals.
Ask a combination of closed-ended questions (to uncover facts) and open-ended questions (to reveal the emotion behind the answers). Share case histories that demonstrate how you've solved similar problems for other customers. There's rarely a cookie-cutter solution to any sales challenge. Every prospect has different needs. You must uncover those needs and the rationale behind your prospect's objections to successfully close the sale.

Ok, now I admit to a great liking for the Gladiator. In fact, I loved this movie, and not because of the whole host of Russell Crowe "chest shots" or his cute rear end. I liked it because I am an intelligent, well-read gentlewoman who happens to have great interest in the whimsy, the history, and the legends that are associated with the marvelous Roman Empire. Besides, I never once looked at Russell Crowe's butt. Nor did I notice his tan, bulging biceps, either.
The movie was euphoric in its visual spectacles, its storytelling, and its sword-and-sandals charisma. Blood and guts. Heads chopped off at will. Remorseless killing. The perfect movie for any woman of taste.
The truth is, not all of us estrogen-charged lasses desire endless hours with Oprah, while she cries on stage over some 25-year-old bimbo who reunites with her 17-year-old biological daughter, who it turns out, has now married her already-married bigamist cousin, who turned out to be a transsexual having an affair with another woman who was a drug addict and gave birth to a crack baby.
Oprah is too touchy-feely for me. She cries if one of her guests breaks a fingernail. Then there's Lifetime Cable channel, the "lady channel." All movies for all women — all the time. There's 5 different movie scripts, with 10 different actors/actresses. They just keep revolving the players with the scripts and come up with something like 1,692 different combinations — enough to keep Lifetime on the air for 20 years or so.
Why do women love this stuff? Are we, as a gender, that shallow and superficial? Have women become that otiose in terms of their daily routines? That begging an answer, I dare to question women, and their dreadful taste in movies — as well as their taste for the men in Hollywood that headline those movies.
The Marlboro Man, smoking and looking cool in his boots in the rugged Montana outdoors, is no longer the epitome of manliness nor the symbol of sex. Instead, manliness and sex is now embodied in the Friends look, where these Generation-X guys living with chick friends are 6'1", 130 lbs., with Gen-X defined haircuts, sensitive as all heck to the female's plight, and always half-witted, too.
Intelligence is no longer a factor for manliness, according to Hollywood. Dumb, goofy guys that don't get it — but try to — are the cream of the crop. Matthew LeBlanc was once considered one of Hollwood's sexiest men. To me, he looks a little on the wimpy side.
But the new generation of "liberated" women like this, it seems. They like wimpy guys because they are more "understanding and sweet." They like stupid guys because they can keep them under their thumb. They like skinny poles that they can beat up if need be.
Look at our heroes of Hollywood's yesteryear. Men were actually manly. What a concept! Humphrey Bogart looked so cool in Casablanca, how can one blame Ingrid Bergman for falling for him?
Bogey could no longer be cool because he smoked, and he was probably too politically incorrect. Hell, Bogey could never be PC, not for a moment. Cagney was too manly, and not nearly 90s-sensitive enough. Burt Lancaster would probably be considered a wife-beater and Cary Grant a "Deadbeat-Dad," and Charleton Heston likes guns, so he's outta here. Chicks are afraid of guns, and know that big, bad guns kill people, so give Chuck the boot!
Don't get me wrong, for I love romance, and love stories, and intelligent life tales as much as any romantic fool, for that I truly am. But most of Hollywood assumes the typical female wants to see the quintessential mush story that revolves around crying spells, middle-age crises, or meaningless affairs. Where are the stories of soulmateship and devotion, or marriage and monogamy? Rarely do movies ever rise to this level outside of the small-budget, independent filmmaking format.
The chick-flick types can have their Oprah and Sally Jesse, and any Lifetime Cable movies starring Richard Crenna, Jaclyn Smith, Donna Mills, or any other washed-up former prime-timer who cries over a busted relationship for half the movie.
I want something intellectually absorbing with a superbly-crafted plot, or anything ideologically appealing — especially where government is made to look as evil as it is — or special affects that just wow me, or even blood-and-guts excitement revolving around ancient history, or just good u2018ol fighting.
Jackie Chan movies are great "guy movies" for the "non chick-flick gal," too. I first saw Jackie kick up his heels in Rumble in the Bronx, and have been a captive Chan moviegoer ever since. Every time I attend one of these boisterous, testosterone-charged martial arts shows, I look around to see if there is any other presence of estrogen in the theatre. Usually there's a few scattered feminine souls, with most looking like they were holding up their end of the bargain in a "I'll go to the stupid guy-movie if you go to my chick-flick" deal.
Give me Al Pacino stomping up and down the sideline, spittin' tobacco and swearin' at his players, or Gene Hackman slappin' some manipulating dingbat and saying, "See ya!", or Harvey Keitel cleanin' up the blood from a murder scene, but don't give me Jon Bon Jovi with a sensitive 90's frosted hairdo, installing some woman's cabinetry, consoling her on her latest breakup with a macho guy who wasn't understanding and kind, and therefore was a jerk.
Heck, Jon Bon Jovi couldn't hold a candle to Harvey Keitel or the Marlboro Man under any circumstances.

Al Stefanelli, Georgia State Director, American Atheists, Inc. was our speaker at March's meeting. Mr. Stephanelli spoke on issues related to freethought. He touched upon some of the challenges that we face trying to present atheism in a good light, which is particularly relevant since there has been more and more media attention given to atheists in the past several years. He hoped that secular community would unite and promote common messages we all agree upon as freethinkers. He also said we should cooperate with progressives across the spectrum of beliefs, including progressive Christians. Mr. Stephanelli believes that we need to promote fellowship in our own groups as well if we are to grow as a movement. It was an interesting meeting that was largely an open discussion. Thanks to all who participated.

Sprengel, Christian Konrad (krĭsˈtyän kônˈrät shprĕngˈəl) [key], 1750–1816, German botanist. Although director of a school at Spandau and tutor in Berlin, he devoted himself chiefly to the study of flowering plants. He pointed out (1793) the role of insects and of the wind in the cross-pollination of plants, but his observations were neglected until they were brought to public attention by Charles Darwin.
