The White House Fellowship Program was created more than forty years ago by the bi-partisan efforts of President Lyndon B. Johnson and John W. Gardner, former president of the Carnegie Corp. The program provides some of the nation's most promising citizens with a first hand look at the behind-the-scenes workings of the U.S. political system. A select group of men and women -- chosen through an intense application, interview, and deliberation process -- spend an entire year working alongside top government officials.
Charles Garcia, author of Leadership Lessons of the White House Fellows: Learn How to Inspire Others, Achieve Greatness, and Find Success in Any Organization, shares some of the lessons learned.
LEADERSHIP LESSON #1: There's more to life than work. Great leaders have deep reserves of physical, spiritual, and emotional energy, and that energy is usually fueled by a strong and supportive relationship with the people they love, regular exercise, a healthy lifestyle, and setting aside time for reflection.
THE STORY BEHIND THE LESSON: Doris Kearns Goodwin
At 6:00 a.m. on a cold January morning in 1973, presidential historian, Pulitzer Prize-winning author, and NBC news analyst Doris Kearns Goodwin (WHF 67-68) received a call from former President Lyndon B. Johnson, with whom she had become a trusted confidante while working on his memoirs.
"He told me to get married, have children, and spend time with them," Goodwin said. "He talked about how he should have spent more time with his family, because that's a different and more worthy kind of posterity than the public one that he had been seeking throughout his entire political career. That would be our last conversation, because he died of a heart attack two days later—but what a wonderful thing to leave me with."
Goodwin heeded Johnson's words. For example, she turned down the chance to be considered for the position of head of the Peace Corps during the Carter administration because she knew it would require her to travel often and be away from her young children. Over the years she's concluded that those who live the richest lives manage to achieve a healthy balance of work, love, and play.
"To commit yourself to just one of those spheres without the others is to leave open an older age filled with sadness, because once the work is gone, you have nothing left—no hobbies, no sports," Goodwin said. "Your family may love you, but they are not in the center of your life as they might have been had you paid attention to them all the way through. And I always argue that the ability to relax and replenish your energy is absolutely essential."
LEADERSHIP LESSON #2: Always focus on the mission. To be a great leader, you have to be intensely focused on the core mission of your organization: know it, understand it, and live it. Make sure everyone in your organization can answer these questions: Who are we? What do we do? Whom do we serve? At the end of the day, the mission is the true North Star that guides every action you take.
LEADERSHIP LESSON #3: Put your people first. No organization is better than the people who run it. The fact is that you are in the people business—the business of hiring, training, and managing people to deliver the product or service you provide. If the people are the engine of your success, to be a great leader you need to attend to your people with a laserlike focus.
THE STORY BEHIND THE LESSON: Mitchell Reiss
Mitchell Reiss (WHF 88-89) has seen firsthand that a leader's focus on his or her people is an incredibly powerful tool. He learned that valuable lesson during his White House Fellowship from his principal, the National Security Advisor and former Secretary of State and former White House Fellow Colin Powell.
"Two weeks after I started my Fellowship, there was a picnic over the weekend for the National Security Council staff and their families," Reiss recalled. "We got there promptly, but General Powell was already there helping set up, helping cook the burgers and hot dogs, and personally greeting every single person, not just on the staff but their families. He came over to me and knew not only my name but introduced himself to my wife, Elisabeth, and thanked her for allowing me to work the hours that I worked at the NSC. He told her she should feel that she is part of the NSC family as well.
"That very brief but very personal interaction with Powell had an extraordinary impact on her. After he left, she turned to me and said, 'You better do a good job for that man. If you need to stay late at work, I will never complain.' That's the sort of transformative impact that leadership can have, and I was able to see it up close and personal with Colin Powell. This lesson was invaluable when I later worked at the State Department, where I tried to replicate this sense of teamwork and compassion."
LEADERSHIP LESSON #4: Root out prejudice. Great leaders recognize that talent and leadership abilities are distributed randomly. Therefore, they do not form judgments about a person based on ethnicity, gender, religion, age, or any other factor. They root out prejudice and biases in themselves and others and ensure that there is an equal opportunity at all levels for everyone to rise to a position of leadership in his or her organization on the basis of merit and character.
THE STORY BEHIND THE LESSON: Ron Lee
Even though people of color were not given access to many high-profile jobs in Washington in the 1960s, the White House Fellows bucked that trend and included African Americans from day one. Ron Lee (WHF 65-66) was the nation's first African-American White House Fellow, and he made the most of his unique perspective during his year at the U.S. Postal Service.
Lee found that in 1966, the U.S. Post Office was the biggest civilian agency in the government, with 600,000 employees total, and yet out of 44,000 postmasters nationwide, only two were African-Americans. "It was disgraceful, and Larry O'Brien [Postmaster General of the U.S. Postal Service at the time] and I agreed that it was something worse than that—it was segregation, because about 30 percent of the postal service employees were minorities at that time," Lee explained. "So O'Brien gave me the go-ahead to find people to promote."
Within months Lee had hired minority postmasters to run the nation's four largest postal responsibilities in the country. In all, during his Fellowship, Lee identified ten people for O'Brien to recommend to President Johnson for postmaster appointments and helped increase the number of African-Americans in senior management ranks at headquarters from 5 percent to 12 percent.
During the thirty-one months he served as an aide to Postmaster General O'Brien and then as one of the six assistant postmasters general, Lee helped to hire an additional 50,000 African-American employees for a total of 110,000 and raised their average pay level by 40 percent. He also helped direct some of the postal service's $25 million in daily postal revenue to African-American-owned banks, which until then had been overlooked.
LEADERSHIP LESSON #5: Act with integrity. The actions of great leaders are consistent with their words. Saying the right thing doesn't mean much. Doing the right thing means everything when you want people to follow you passionately. By acting with honor and integrity, you build trust with your followers.
THE STORY BEHIND THE LESSON: Jane Cahill Pfeiffer
When she was appointed chairman of the NBC television network and became the highest-paid woman executive in America, Jane Cahill Pfeiffer (WHF 66-67)—the nation's first female White House Fellow—found herself squarely in the middle of a major scandal.
The network's unit managers—the ones who took technical and support crews outside the studios to cover sporting events or film television shows on location—were using company money on luxury items and other non-work-related expenses. After interviewing many of them, Pfeiffer found that many had been acting on orders from a higher-level supervisor who had threatened them if they did not comply.
She hired an independent auditing company with 228 accountants and accomplished corporate crisis manager and lawyer Victor Palmieri to unravel the tangled web of issues at the network. When all was said and done, eighteen of the company's fifty-five unit managers, including Vice President Stephen Weston, the unit managers' supervisor, were fired.
Unfortunately, even though she eliminated one of the biggest threats to its reputation that NBC had ever faced, only two years after assuming her role as the network's chairman, Pfeiffer was fired. While the termination was a blow to her initially, she now believes the experience was a blessing in disguise.
"I was dealt a different deck of cards than I expected, but I stayed there and fixed it as best I could," Pfeiffer said. "I helped change the way a company operated for the better, and then I moved on. You think you know and have faith in yourself—that you'll act a certain way when troubled times come—and sometimes you get the opportunity to find out. I have not one ounce of regret about any of it."
LEADERSHIP LESSON #6: Create a sense of urgency. Effective leaders create a sense of urgency by communicating with their team to set a goal and a workable time line for achieving it. They hold team members accountable by checking their progress at regular intervals. They encourage their team by being responsive to their questions and concerns and by providing positive feedback. They are flexible and always willing to change course if something is impeding success. Great leaders create a sense of urgency by conveying a bold vision that captures people's imagination about what can be accomplished in the future. They go one step further by getting all members of their team to see and feel the need for change.
LEADERSHIP LESSON #7: Be passionate. When you gamble on your passion, the payoff can be greater than you ever imagined. It's been said that if you do what you love, personal success will follow. But it could also be said that if you do what you love, the team will follow. Ask yourself, Is "good" sufficient for me, or do I aspire to greatness as a leader? If you'd prefer greatness, remember this: If you want people to follow you, you must follow your passion, because if you don't care about what you're doing, you can be sure that no one else will care either.
LEADERSHIP LESSON #8: Be persistent. Great leaders learn to cultivate a habit of persisting. Calvin Coolidge said, "Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing in the world is more common than unsuccessful men with great talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."
LEADERSHIP LESSON #9: Be a great communicator. Leadership is about influencing others, and this cannot be achieved without the ability to communicate. Once you master the ability to influence individuals intuitively by first connecting with them, and then choosing words that are impactful to carry your message, you need then to figure out how to communicate to a larger audience. Always keep in mind that your actions truly speak louder than your words.
THE STORY BEHIND THE LESSON: Marsha "Marty" Evans
After learning the value of quality communication from her Fellowship principal U.S. Treasury Secretary William "Bill" Miller, Marsha "Marty" Evans carried on the tradition in her work with the Navy.
In 1986, former Fellow and Naval Academy Superintendent Chuck Larson (WHF 68-69) tapped Evans to be one of six battalion officers at the Naval Academy—the first female battalion officer in Navy history—placing her in charge of the training and well-being of hundreds of midshipmen. The academy was meant to be a place of discipline and decorum, but occasionally a lower classman would slip up by wearing nonregulation clothing. When Evans saw a third classman in a Budweiser t-shirt one day, she assumed there had been a break down in communication.
"I remember the lecture so well," Evans recalled. "I said, 'You know, my own basic leadership belief is that people generally want to do the right thing, and if they're not doing the right thing it's because they haven't been trained properly. They haven't somehow had the benefit of the teaching and the leadership of their seniors. So, I can only come to the conclusion that this youngster is wearing this t-shirt because he has suffered from faulty communication by his midshipman chain of command.' Each person in the third classman's chain of command was held accountable and punished."
Evans's commonsense approach to encouraging better communication in her organization helped her create a more cohesive team and also garnered the Navy's attention. She was promoted steadily throughout her thirty-year career and retired as a two-star rear admiral, one of only a few women to attain the rank. Since leaving the military, Evans has used her outstanding communication skills in her roles as director of the Girl Scouts of the USA and president and CEO of the American Red Cross.
LEADERSHIP LESSON #10: Ask the tough questions that need to be asked. Whatever your station in life, there will come a day when you'll have to decide whether to speak out or forever hold your peace. When that day comes for you, remember that great results begin with great questions.

Ashton concerned by Palestinian conviction
Baroness Ashton has criticised an Israeli court ruling convicting a Palestinian activist of demonstrating illegally.
Abdullah Abu Rahmeh has not yet been sentenced but could face two years in jail after a military court convicted him of incitement.
The teacher, 39, staged weekly protests against the West Bank security fence, leading marches from the West bank village of Bilin to the barrier. Israel said he did not have the necessary license for this.
Lady Ashton, the EU High Representative, released a statement expressing her concern about the decision, which she said was aimed at preventing legitimate and non-violent protests against Israel.
But Yigal Palmor, from Israel's Foreign Ministry, said her interference with a transparent legal procedure was "highly improper."
Mr Rahmeh is expected to appeal against the ruling.

I would like to thank everyone for the helpful posts and guidance.
As regards the details of the incident that led to the problem--- I am almost 100% sure that the speaker leads did not touch each other when they were accidentally pulled out, so this is apparently good news. I will certainly look into the straightforward possibility of a blown fuse once I get back into town and get home, and I'll post the results. If that doesn't work out, the Adcom web site lists 2 different retailers in my area who are supposedly Adcom dealers, and I would then pursue that route.
I would love to get that 555 working again, as I was enjoying it as much during year 15 as I did during year 1......
Thanks again..........

Don't forget to ask around about their service dept. first if you need to take it in. Also, do they send their repairs to an outside shop? Go direct after asking about the shop.

Adcom blown channel: follow-up
I would like to again thank everyone for their posts and suggestions. The following took place since I last posted:
1. After reading the posts here, I removed the top plate, and I did, in fact, find 2 blown fuses associated with the right channel.
2. I easily obtained replacement fuses and replaced. Still no right channel.
3. I searched the Adcom web site and found a high end retailer located about a 25-30 minute drive from home. I contacted the store, and I was told that they would be happy to help......
4. One month and many, many phone calls later, I was finally told that the amplifier was repaired. I was told that a "circuit board" and "other things" had to be replaced. When I pressed for a few more details ("like, uhhhhh, what other things?"), the response was "I don't know".
5. Before driving to the store and handing over a check for $325, I made it clear that I wanted this informed fellow to show me that the amp was working properly before I would pay him.
6. I drove to the store, and he did, in fact, have the amp connected to other components in one of their main listening rooms. He played something briefly, and it sounded great. I gave him his check.
7. I drove home, carefully reconnected the Symo cabling to my Apogee Centaur minors (with everything unplugged at the time), then plugged in the components, and connected the power. No right channel.......................
8. Before ever taking the Adcom out of my place to get repaired, I was absolutely sure I had gone through a variety of cable switching, etc. to be assured that I didn't have a bad piece of cable and that I had not damaged my speakers. All of that seemed to test out fine.......or at least I thought it did. Needless to say, after #7 above, I started second guessing myself............
9. Yesterday, I borrowed an old, unused Denon receiver from a friend. I used some old, never-used Monster Cable to connect the receiver to the Apogees. No right channel...................
10. I guess I better start searching for help with repair of a 15-year old Apogee Centaur Minor............... or maybe it's just time to start completely over when finances permit.

Hi agingaudionut,
Did you try swapping the input leads, then the speaker leads?
I really don't like the sound of your repair. Did you get old parts back, or can you see inside where they worked on the unit? Unless they can provide details and parts, I'd have a talk with the folks at Adcom. PCB's are not available I don't think. Worst case is you paid $$$ for the amp to sit and they found there was nothing wrong with it. They had to charge you for them sitting on it for a month.

Hi Anatech,
Thanks for your note back and recommendations. I was so fed up after testing my speakers with the borrowed Denon receiver that I just turned everything off and decided just to leave it be for a while......
As regards the establishment that allegedly did the Adcom repair--- needless to say, I would never go back there. There was a lot of delay, several never-returned phone calls, no clear cut explanation regarding what was found to be wrong, no return of the replaced parts. The store owner was more interested in spouting off about some new optical cabling he had for the low, low price of $1500/metered pair. After I saw the Adcom connected to components at his store, and he played it briefly, and it seemed to work fine, and then determining that I still had no right sided sound after using a different amp/pre-amp (the Denon that I borrowed.......), I have to admit concluding that I must have toasted BOTH the amp and the right speaker. There is always the possibility of a dead right channel in the borrowed receiver and/or damaged speaker cable (I used different speaker cable with the Denon than I used with the Adcom); however, the friend from whom I borrowed it felt sure that the receiver worked fine the last time he used it, and the standard Monster cable that I used was stored, never used, and appeared to have no obvious defects on close inspection.
Some next steps will be to try to find a couple of speakers to borrow to test my Adcom equipment. I should also mention that when I tested my Apogees with the borrowed Denon receiver, I simply used the tuner as the input; however, I should go back and make some additional speaker cable switches just to make sure.
Thanks again for your notes.

Hi agingaudionut,
I was authorized Adcom service before selling my shop. I have a very deep distrust of store repairs. Their mark ups are normally well over 20% and they are more likely to mis-use a customer's trust. Always remember they are there to sell new gear, repairs are a problem. I bet they were hoping you would refuse the estimate and leave it there.
There were times that lead time exceeded a month, but we always informed the customer honestly about delays. We always returned all parts with real supportable documentation as to the nature of the repair and work performed. If I were you, I would contact Adcom about your experience as it sounds like you were abused. Request that Adcom gets back to you about who repaired your amp (outside shop?) and details. Do not leave this. Yes the amp was out of warranty, but you did take it to an Adcom dealer that they (Adcom) recommended.
This puts Adcom and the dealer at odds, but you are performing a valuable service to Adcom. They need to know what happens to an Adcom customer in the field.
Regards, Chris (another thing that makes me angry)

Hi Arif,
Thanks, but it's just my (strong) opinion. I feel this would apply to any brand.
This is what gives service shops a bad name. Many stores will double the bill. Why should they make about 4X what the shop makes?

Bill Curry's upcoming season at Georgia State will be his last as a college football coach.
Curry, 69, announced his plans at a news conference Wednesday afternoon.
His retirement will end a coaching career that has included stops at Georgia Tech, Alabama and Kentucky.
Curry also had a distinguished NFL playing career that included Super Bowl wins as a center with the Green Bay Packers and Baltimore Colts.
Georgia State hired Curry in 2008 to start the school's football program. It began play in 2010 as a FCS independent and has posted records of 6-5 and 3-8 in its two campaigns.
"The opportunity to start a football program at a university that I love, in my hometown, and the privilege to coach these young men has been one of the highlights of my career," Curry said. "This has been a labor of love, but after this season, it will be the right time to step away from coaching. I am blessed with good health, but I am ready to move on to other things in my life and devote more time to my wife, Carolyn, and our children and grandchildren."
The Panthers move to the Colonial Athletic Association this season before making the jump to the FBS in 2013 as a member of the Sun Belt Conference. The school is eligible for a bowl game in 2014.
"As much as we would all love for Bill Curry to be our football coach forever, we certainly understand and respect this very personal decision," Georgia State athletics director Cheryl L. Levick said. "Bill remains as committed as ever to his role as head coach and mentor to these young men in this final chapter of his coaching career. I think he is invigorated by the unique challenges of this season as we build toward our move to FBS and the Sun Belt."
Running back Parris Lee was one of the Georgia State players that went to Twitter to express their feelings about Curry's departure:
Parris lee@Gogettalee7
this man has changed my life forever it will be hard to see him go. ill do wherever i can to help him leave

To be honest, I think the OP meant "mix engineer".
But in terms of "hifi", as conceived of by the gents in the 30s, before Les Paul started warping space and time and creating things that couldn't actually be performed live, there are several levels of reality.
There's the sound that was created in the studio, but that's not a recording.
There's the sound from the main monitors that the musicians heard when they decreed, "That's a take". (or the producer, in the case of the majority of musicians who lack real artistic control of their work)
There's the sound of the final mix through nearfield monitors, approximating what they think it will sound like at home.
There's the sound in the mastering studio, which used to be "what wouldn't cause the needle to jump out of the groove"... I'm not sure what they're looking for these days, worst case is probably "That won't suck on You Tube!".
I think Pano was being lightly tongue in cheek, but I did, for many years, use Altec 604Es for home listening. From other threads, I know my listening habits and criteria are not the same as most of you. Such audiophile euphonics as "spaciousness" are lost on me, I prefer to listen nearfield when I'm in the room with the speakers. But mostly these days, I listen to classic rock as background music, and it's about going back in time... and I like the feeling there's there's really a drumset in the next room. Currently, EVM12Ls matched to sectoral horns playing at about +106dB do that for me. I tend to judge speakers on the impact and timbre of the kick drum. If that's right, my brain can blame the rest on EQ or mic choice.

For instance, something they do in Hollywood sometimes on movies like "Traffic" for example, where the director clearly changed color filters to "yellow / orange" for the parts that take place in Mexico, and "blue / gray" for the parts that take place in the city.
Now, we could say that the colors inflict un-natural tones, but they do convey a message.
So, we could have two trains of thought on it. The first train of thought, which can be called "realism", we can attribute to the director's view. We say it's "realistic" because it follows their intention of what they wanted it to look like. We're applying "realism" to someone else's idea and conveying that in an unadulterated manner. The 1.) crowd. Agreed that this is nearly impossible to ever achieve because of the nature of audio reproduction, but the pursuit can be fun.
The second train of thought could be that we should digitally process it so that it's more even and skin tones show up properly, trees are the right color, etc..meaning realism is a perfectly transparent window to what it should look like.
This probably doesn't happen much in the videophile world, but us audio guys really seem to have a hard time agreeing on how audio recordings should be handled. I think perhaps, realizing that option A is almost nearly impossible for audio, we fall back a bit on option b, which encompasses all of the multiple choices given by the original post except 1.

I've hung around enough recording studios to have a more jadded view of that. Most recording studios have speakers optimized for durabilty and output rather than any sort of accuracy. The studio engineer wants everything revealed. In the old days rising top ends were good for revealing poor tape edits, so that was a good thing. High directivity and near field listening gives a better view of recording faults, so that is a good thing. It may not be like you want at home but that isn't of concern to the recording engineer.
Every engineer has an oppinion about what will sell and they shape the sound accordingly. They also spend a lot of time learning to translate what they hear into their notion of what is good sound, or what the public wants, so even if their system is highly nonlinear they can mentally compensate for it.
Trust me, a lot of people on this forum have better sytems and can recreate a better experience at home than they would have heard standing behind the producer while the recording was being made.
My goal would be, rather than to be in the mixing room behind the console, to be in the studio itself hearing the performance live. I know that many recordings are assembled from parts rather than of a real time performance, but that would be my ideal.
Short of that, then give us tastefully done recordings with minimal gimickery, and playback systems that find the right compromise between pure accuracy and plausible recreation of an appropriate venue.

It reads like the "change Picasso" argument is being used to refute the "change Picasso" argument.
And hi-fi, no matter how you define it, isn't about getting closer to the producer but getting closer to the performer.
It is error only, and not truth, that shrinks from enquiry. - Thomas Paine

There is a standard for video display laid down by SMPTE (and the EBU). Very few displays can actually achieve it, tho many can get close. The vast majority of all displays are not adjusted to meet the standard, even if they could. Part of my job as been to calibrate those displays so that they come as close to the standard as possible. Once that's done, they look great - and also look a lot like other calibrated displays. Most pros don't think it can be done, until you show them.
Unfortunately, music recording and playback does not have a SMPTE standard. Cinema sound does, music does not. Many video producers and technicians are surprised how good their stuff looks when shown on a display that is calibrated and meets spec - much better than they've ever seen it. In the same way as David mentions that many of us have better playback equipment than is found in most mix and mastering suites.
Is it wrong of us to do "better"?
Yes, I understand that everyone's definition of "better" might be different, but for me "more faithful to the source" is better. Although I can measure my way 92% toward that goal, the final 8% has to be a judgment call. Does it sound real? The answer for a lot of systems I hear is "No - it sounds like Hi-Fi."

Part of the "correctness" is that every part of the sound landscape you're listening to sounds right, nothing jars, is intrusive or doesn't gell. In simple terms, you can completely relax your mind and body when listening even at high volumes, in all the "wrong" places in the room and the sound never fails to be fully convincing ...

Mental Health
Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
Hello I believe I can help you with your concern
You are right that the Garcinia can increase Serotonin levels much like the Lexapro and this can cause a syndrome called Serotonin Syndrome, which is very serious.
Most likely the increase from the Garcinia would not cause a significant increase in Serotonin levels in conjunction with the Lexapro, but I would still not recommend using this with the Lexapro before speaking with your doctor.
If you are looking to lose weight and still continue using an antidepressant, I would recommend the use of Wellbutrin, which is an effective antidepressant, although may not be as effective as the Lexapro, but it actually promotes weight loss
Well you can definitely go off the Lexapro if that is what you want to see if you no longer need it. Many individuals find that their therapeutic techniques are enough to keep them stable after using an antidepressant for so long
I know they say that tapering is the best way to go off
Oh most definitely. You have taken it for so long that your body will react negatively if you abruptly stop taking the Lexapro. Tapering it off slowly and gradually is the best way to avoid any withdrawal effects. You should talk to your prescribing physician that you want to discontinue the Lexapro, so that he/she knows this and can give you a good tapering down schedule
Inhave done so research on line and some people have some nasty withdrawL its a little disconcerting
It is disconcerning to some, but if you taper slowly your withdrawal effects will be minimal. Also you can taper and then switch over to Prozac, which has a longer half-life and is easier to discontinue then the Lexapro. Many psychiatrist and doctors do this for their patients.
Ok thank you for your help
Anytime, is there anything else I can assist you with?
No than you

NEW YORK (Feb. 16)
The Jewish Agency executive, which is currently meeting in New York, tonight issued a statement announcing that Henry Morgenthau Jr., has teen invited to become the general chairman of the United Jewish Appeal. It also said that "it is understood" Morgenthau will invite Henry Montor to conduct the 1949 U.J.A. campaign.
Also issued tonight ware statements by Berl Locker, chairman of the Agency executive in Jerusalem, explaining the action of the body, and a statement by Dr. Abba Hillel Silver, chairman of the American section of the executive, announcing his resignation from the executive, and that of Dr. Emanuel Neumann, Z.O.A. president. The statement of the Agency Executive follows:
"The Executive of the Jewish Agency has met in plenary session in New York to discuss the urgent problems of its work, especially immigration, colonization and fund-raising.
"The Executive, after having discussed the differences of opinion which arose in the United States with regard to the 1949 campaign of the United Jewish Appeal, has taken the following decisions which it is hoped will ensure unity of action and the successful conduct of the campaign.
"The Executive deplores the accusations which have been made in the course of the recent controversy with regard to fund-raising against responsible Zionist bodies, and especially against the United Palestine Appeal and the Zionist Organization of America and states that these accusations are unfounded and that the Integrity of these bodies and their leadership cannot be impugned.
"The Executive takes note of the arrangements agreed upon with regard to the Reorganization of the United Palestine Appeal and will take the necessary steps to ensure their implementation at the earliest possible date. The Executive also notes with satisfaction that the 1949 campaign of the United Jewish Appeal has been launched end that American Jewish communities have began their mobilization for this great effort.
"Meeting for the first time in the United States in plenary session the Executive takes this occasion to note with appreciation the steadfast loyalty of and the important contributions made by all sections of American Zionism and by the Jewish community of the United States in general over many years in all fields of activity for the Jewish Rational Home and Israel. We recall the roll played by the Keren Hayesod and the Keren Kayemeth in the United States and by the United Palestine Appeal in mobilizing financial support for this great effort.
"We also record the historic achievements of American Zionists in the great political struggle which culminated in the rise of the State of Israel. In the critical period which lies ahead we look to all sections of American Zionism and all American Jewry as a whole to cooperate wholeheartedly in a curtained effort to mobilize all its resources in coping with the met problem of nose immigration and colonization which confront us in Israel, It was also decided that:
"1. Mr. Henry Morgenthau, Jr. is to be invited to become the General Chairman if the United Jewish Appeal with the come authority he exercised in the previous campaigns as we find in the Minutes of the United Jewish Appeal administrative committee of December 13, 1946. That document is attached hereto;
"2. The Joint Distribution Committee and the United Palestine Appeal shall be entitled to name Executive Vice Chairman of equal rank. It is understood that Mr. Mergenthau will invite Mr. Henry Mentor to conduct the 1949 campaign;
"3. All Zionist staff members of the United Jewish Appeal shall refrain from my and all controversial Zionist political activity;
"4. The Committee of Contributors and Workers shall discontinue all activities and dissolve immediately;
"5. All Zionist groups will be advised by the Jewish Agency that they should in the future refrain from involving the United Palestine Appeal and the National funds in any controversial political discussions.
"A further statement on other items dealt with by the Executive will be issued after the conclusion of its plenary session."
The following to an extract of the minutes of a meeting of the U.J.A. Administrative Committee of Dec. 13, 1946, explaining the functions of the general chairman of the organization;
"Consideration was given to the ratter of the appointment of a General Chairman. It was the sense of the Committee that the General Chairman should be vested with the fullest powers of function and responsible authority. To this end it was duly resolved that a General Chairman be designated to have responsible direction of all matters of policy connected with the campaign; to counsel and advice with the chairmen and Executive Vise-Chairmen and to initiate and to do whatever may be desirable or necessary to effectuate plans, purposes and policies; to serve ex-officio as a member of the Administrative Committee and of all Sub-Committees.
"To the attainment of these objects, the Administrative Committee pledges the fullest support and cooperation of the staff of the United Jewish Appeal, of its officers and the members of the administrative Committee."
"In recent weeks, in discussion of the launching of the United Jewish Appeal campaign, reference has been mode publicly and privately to the letter I wrote to the United Palestine Appeal on September 10 submitting my resignation. It is regrettable that note has not been taken of the fact that on October 21 I wrote to the United Palestine Appeal withdrawing the letter dated September 10.
"It is appropriate for me to point out at this tire that any circulation or publication of the letter of September 10 was not undertaken by me and was without is approval. I could regret nothing more than that it should in any way serve to lessen support of the genuine needs of Israel.
"As vice president of the Palestine Economic Corporation, I continue to have fall knowledge of the total needs of Israel and of the urgent necessity for maximum generosity by the Jews of America to the United Jewish Appeal. I shall be glad to render whatever service I can in my present capacity toward that end.
"Insofar as my letter of September 10th is concerned, in order to make my position quite clear, I hereby withdraw it and all the accusations contained therein and ask that it be expunged from the record. I offer my apologies to any person or organization offended at its contents, more particularly to the United Palestine Appeal and the Zionist Organization of America,"
The following is the text of the statement issued by Locker, at a press conference here:
"I want first of all cordially to thank the Jewish press for the cooperative spirit they have shown during the plenary session of the Jewish Agency Executive in New York. 1 know how difficult it is for the daily press to withhold from their readers news and comment on current affairs of common interest, but all of you understood the importance of keeping certain matters confidential and you cooperated excellently.
"The plenary session is not yet over and there are still a few quite important matters to be discussed and settled. However, I am in a position to give you today some general notion of the most important problems we are confronted with, and I am doing it gladly. You know from previous communications that during our session we have had reports of our Department for Immigration and Absorption of Immigrants, of the Finance Department, and also a general report on colonization. Some attention was given also to organizational matters. We are still to discuss reports of our department dealing with the Jewish situation in Arab and Moslem countries, and of the Special Department for the Development of Jerusalem. We also have on our agenda the problem of the Chalutzim movement in America and adequate provisions will have to be made for the establishment of an Agency Department for cultural and educational work in the Diaspora.
"The most important problem, which was the main reason for convening the plenary session in New York, was, as you know, the controversy which has arisen around the 1949 Campaign of the United Jewish Appeal. I would like to say at the outset, that all members participating in the meeting have approached this problem with good will and understanding, and have made serious efforts to reach an agreement satisfactory to all concerned. In fact, on most of the points, agreement has been reached, but unfortunately there remained one on which a minority held a view different from that of the majority. This was the question of the leadership of the 1949 campaign. The majority took the view that it is vital for the success of the 1949 campaign that Mr. Henry Morgenthau Jr. should be given the some rights as he had in the previous two campaigns and also that he should be able to invite Mr. Henry Montor to undertake the conduct of the campaign under Mr. Morgenthau's leadership.
"The majority of the Executive so decided. Two members of the Executive, undoubtedly guided by most sincere conviction, did not share the view of the majority and voted against it, while four other members abstained from voting, declaring at the same time that they accept the decision of the majority as binding on the whole executive and are prepared to put themselves entirely at the disposal of the campaign. I regret to have to announce that Dr. Silver and Dr. Neumann did not confine themselves to voting against this decision, but also announced their resignation from the Executive. All other members of the Executive, while respecting the views of their two distinguished colleagues, consider their step unjustified. It was unanimously resolved ?ot to accept their resignation and to appeal to Dr. Silver and Dr. Neunann to accept be decision of the majority and not to withhold their services to the Executive and to the campaign. "These views still stand and I am expressing the hope of the whole Executive last the two colleagues mentioned will reconsider their decision. We expect them to continue their much needed work in full cooperation with their colleagues.
"One last word; You know that in the course of this controversy a letter written by Mr. Montor on the 10th of September became a subject of heated discussion. Mr. Montor has now withdrawn this letter and the accusations contained therein."
Supplementing his prepared statement, Locker told a news conference that the greatest problem now facing the Jewish Agency is that of providing adequate housing for the newly-arriving immigrants. He said that the Jerusalem members of the executive were reluctant to come to the United States at this time because they did not wish to be absent from the opening session of the Israeli Constituent Assembly, but decided to hold the plenary session in Kew York immediately because they wished to help resolve the conflict within the U.J.A.
American Jewry, he said, must support the Agency's program of housing the thousands of immigrants reaching Israel every week. He pointed out that the Jewish Agency is at present expending $30,000 daily to feed nearly 30,000 refugee immigrants in Agency reception centers in Israel. He also emphasized that Israel must provide for the swift resettlement of all sections of the country, including the Negev.
Touching on the question of land redemption in Israel, Locker emphasized that the Israeli Government–"not being a robber government "–would not confiscate Arab lands, but would pay fair prices to the former owners. He reiterated that although it is able to meet all of its requirements, the Jewish Agency must look abroad to Jewish communities throughout the world, but most especially to the American Jewish community, for the financial support needed to house new immigrants.
The following statement was issued by Dr. Silver to explain his and Dr. Neumann's resignations from the Agency executive:
"Yesterday I, as well as Dr. Emanuel Neumann, resigned from the Executive of to Jewish Agency.A brief explanation is called for.
"Our Movement is confronted with a task of staggering proportions: the transportation, absorption and resettlement in Israel of hundreds of thousands of Jews now stressing to its shores. How to mobilize the vast sums required for this purpose is the burning problem of the hour.
"In our view only through the wholehearted cooperation of all sections of American Jewry working for the United Jewish Appeal in an atmosphere of harmony and good-will can we hope to meet even the minimal needs. Without it the campaign would be gravely Jeopardized.
"Having gone to the greatest lengths to settle the recant controversy precipitated by Mr. Henry Montor by an agreement conclude in December, we were dismayed at the reopening of the controversy and the renewed insistence that the supreme direction of the campaign be turned over to the one most responsible for the internecine conflict–one who had become a most controversial figure symbolizing to many groups ##ed communities not harmony and good-will, but strife and bitter antagonism.
"On Monday, I was requested by the Executive to confer with Mr. Morgenthau in Florida. I agreed to make this final effort in order to persuade Mr. Morgenthau or to explore other possibilities for the sake of unity; but Mr. Morgenthau politely declined to meet.
"The plan now approved by the Executive under pressure, spells an overwhelming concentration of powers in Mr. Morgenthau and Mr. Montor — chiefly the latter, who is to be given even greater authority and a higher status than he ever had in the past. It is painful but necessary to point out that such concentration of power last year led to a most serious and flagrant abuse of that power with disastrous consequences. The wretched controversy from which we are still suffering was organized and directed by Mr. Montor while occupying key positions. No sense of responsibility or loyalty deterred him from attempting to launch a new rival fund, splitting the community and threatening the very organizations which employed him. He spread scandalous rumors and accusations which the Agency Executive has unanimously declared to be false and which Mr. Montor himself belatedly retracted. While Mr. Montor engaged in this incendiary business sewing dissension and distrust, Mr. Morgenthau as General Chairman did nothing to restrain him. On the contrary, he insisted that Mr. Montor retain his post until the end of the year, but he permitted him to use those months and the extensive facilities at his disposal to carry on his disruptive activities without let or hindrance. It is conceded that those activities have already been very costly to the United Jewish Appeal. The bill for Mr. Montor's irresponsible conduct will be paid in the final analysis by thousands of homeless Jews in desperate need of all those things which the generosity of American Jews must provide.
"We regret to differ with other members of the Executive, particularly those resident in Jerusalem, on the proper course to follow in the best interest of the campaign in the United States. With all deference to the majority we cannot share the responsibility for what is now being done. Those who demand unlimited and arbitrary power and those who agree to confer it must also assume full responsibility for the chain of consequences which may follow. We can only hope that the results will be better than we have reason to fear. For ourselves we intend to continue to work in the future as in the past for the good of the Movement and the welfare of Israel."

What You Can Do
The following ideas can help you evaluate the way your school uses energy and identify opportunities to conserve energy. These concepts will significantly reduce utility bills and other energy costs over one year.
Ensure lights are turned off when classrooms, washrooms, and offices are not being used. Post signs by light switches that will remind students and staff to turn off lights when leaving a room or office.
If using multi-lighted fixtures, have unnecessary lights removed. De-lamp two lights from four light fixtures.
Buy energy-efficient equipment. There are standard energy use tags attached to most new equipment that can help you determine which pieces will be the most efficient. This equipment may be more costly, but your utility bill savings will quickly make up for the extra cost.
Ensure that windows and doors are air-tight and are kept closed to prevent heat loss in the winter, and that windows are opened in the warmer months to provide natural ventilation.
Plant deciduous trees on the south side of the school to provide natural shade and cooling in the warmer months.
Place water filled containers (about the size of a brick) in toilet tanks to conserve water.
Recycle items such as newspaper, aluminum cans, and plastic bottles; recycling these items requires less energy than producing them from brand new, raw materials.
Use cold water when possible
Use energy-saving settings on computers and other equipment
Stop air leaks around windows and doors with caulk or weather stripping. Air leaks can rob your school of heat in the winter or make it too humid in the summer.
Clean or change air filters on your air heating system in the winter and on air conditioning units in the summer so that they work more efficiently.
We all have to change our ways.

Flinders - Shoreham - Point Leo
Unpaid childcare
141 people in Flinders - Shoreham - Point Leo provided unpaid care for children other than their own in 2011.
The role of unpaid childcare in Flinders - Shoreham - Point Leo is determined by many different factors. For example areas with high levels of unpaid child care may have a dominance of single income families with one significant earner, or there could be a lack of provision of paid child care in the area. The level to which people care for others children can also indicate the role of extended family (eg. grandparents caring for grandchildren, family day care).
The role of unpaid child care is a complex one so this topic should be viewed in conjunction with several others, including Household Type, Employment, Household Income and Educational Attendance.
Derived from the Census question:
'In the last two weeks did the person spend time looking after a child, without pay?', which specifically asks respondents to differentiate between caring for their own children and caring for others children.
Persons aged 15 years and over.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — A prosecutor says Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston will not be charged in a sexual assault case.
State Attorney Willie Meggs made the announcement Thursday. The 19-year-old Heisman Trophy candidate was accused of raping a female student in December last year, but Meggs says there is not enough evidence for anyone to be charged in the case.
The Tallahassee Police Department turned the case over to Meggs on Nov. 12 after several media inquiries. Meggs interviewed the accuser Nov. 21.
The prosecutor says Winston's DNA matched a sample found in the woman's underwear. But Winston's lawyer, Tim Jansen, has said that was expected and doesn't prove guilt.
The top-ranked and undefeated Seminoles are playing Duke on Saturday in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game. A win would likely put them in the BCS championship game.

© Copyright: Name Origin Research www.surnamedb.com 1980 - 2017
There is an error in the information concerning the first Creech recorded name. My lineage is documented Creech from Richard Creech that came from Scotland in 1630. There was established a Creech (Creiche) Castle in Scotland that dated back to 1100's near the River Tay. These are recorded history in Scotland. The installment (by folklore) is that the Castle was installed along with the lands from either service to the King of England (Richard the Lionhearted) or blood relation. (not sure which) Hence the name Richard and Henry are prominent in early Creech History in America.
With all due respect to our ancestors, I do wish you would have done your research a little more. The name Creech is not that of Roman but of Norman. Like Pianoz4u has stated, Creech is recorded in Scottish history with the spelling of Creich. The castle Creech is located in Fife on private land and in ruins. The castle was a tower built by the MacDuff clan and they *gave* or allowed our ancestors to live there for over 600 years.
You do see that is says pre-Roman, not Roman, right? Or was that changed since you made the comment?

NICOSIA (Reuters) - From the sharp-suited 'biznesmeny' in their black BMWs, to the grocery selling imported vodka and whole smoked whitefish, to its Soviet-educated Communist president, the Mediterranean island of Cyprus speaks with an unmistakable Russian accent.
And as the latest troubled EU nation hurtles towards a seemingly inevitable financial rescue, it finds itself teetering between Moscow and Brussels.
"They have to decide whether they want to be part of the European Union - or of the Soviet Union," said Fiona Mullen, economist at Sapienta, a consultancy.
Cyprus took a 2.5 billion euro ($3.15 billion) loan from Russia last year. It now urgently needs at least 1.8 billion euros by the end of this month to rescue its banking sector, torpedoed by its exposure to its bigger brother, Greece.
The actual bill is likely to be several times as high, and if Greece were to exit the euro zone it could run into double digits, a huge sum for a country with barely a million people.
Many in Cyprus think the only place the country could find that kind of cash would be Moscow. Especially if President Demetris Christofias - the EU's only Communist leader and a fluent Russian speaker from his Moscow university days - wants to avoid the tight conditions Brussels normally attaches to its rescue funds.
Cyprus officials have said they are in discussion with Moscow for a loan of 4-5 billion euros. Russian newspapers have hinted that a deal is in the works, although the finance ministry in Moscow says it has received no such request.
The question is: what would Russia get in return? And how would that effect relations with the rest of the European Union?
If Cyprus, which assumes the EU's rotating presidency on July 1, becomes so deeply in hock to Moscow, it would be an enormous embarrassment, both to Brussels and to many in Cyprus who see its long term future with the West, not the East.
"You don't want to have all of your money owed to one country," said Mullen. "Two thirds of your GDP is owed to Mr Putin? That's something that even worries Russian businesses here, who worry that if Cyprus falls out with Russia they have to do what Moscow says."
Still, others say Russian funding would be easier for Nicosia to accept than funding from Brussels, which would require Christofias to make budget cuts that would hurt the economy and enrage voters before an election next February.
It isn't hard to find reasons why Moscow would be willing to be generous - and more lenient with its terms than Brussels.
Although the debt would be huge, in the long term, loans to Cyprus are probably a safe bet. Despite its dire cash flow problems now, Cyprus expects a windfall of wealth in the next decade, following the discovery of giant natural gas fields offshore in the eastern Mediterranean. Russian firms are among the bidders for gas concessions in coming months.
Nicosia insists the bilateral loan it has already accepted from Russia, and any others it might agree in the future, will have no impact on the bidding process. But firms no doubt will expect Moscow's generosity to be taken into account.
Russia also shares the Cypriot government's desire to protect Nicosia from intrusive fiscal conditions and regulations that might come with a bailout package from Brussels.
With its 10 percent corporation tax - the EU's lowest - Cyprus serves as the perfect off-shore base for Russian money, much of which is then reinvested back in Russia itself, a role it played for wealthy Arabs in earlier decades.
"Cyprus will go for any deal that allows them to avoid changing laws and regulations that make it the tax haven that it is," said Hubert Faustmann, politics professor at the University of Nicosia.
"Common sense would point in the Russian direction rather than Brussels, that the strings attached to the EU loan would be tighter than a Russian loan," he added. "The Russians have a strong interest in Cyprus staying the way it is, as a nice place for Russian businessmen to keep their money and pay low taxes."
It helps that many of the rich Russians who have become residents on the sunny island - they are known for paying cash for newly-built seaside villas - are "close to the power centers in Moscow", Faustmann added.
It may not be a question of either Brussels or Moscow. Cyprus might need help from both.
One solution, said Stelios Platis who runs a financial consultancy in Cyprus, would be for Cyprus to turn to the European Union's EFSF rescue fund to bail out its banking sector's exposure to Greece - a problem arguably not of Cyprus's own making - while continuing to look to Moscow for loans to balance its state budget.
As in the 100 billion euro Spanish bank bailout agreed earlier this month, EFSF money given to recapitalize banks need not come with the intrusive fiscal requirements associated with an EU rescue for public finances.
But it still would add to the country's sovereign debt, so EU officials will probably need assurances that Nicosia has funding for its public finances in place, meaning a bilateral loan could be part of a grand double deal.
And any Russian loans would have to be on terms that Cyprus could still afford to repay.
"It would be optimal for Cyprus to meet some of its financing needs through a bilateral loan, whilst applying to the EFSF for banking recapitalization," Platis said.
"The devil is in the details. It depends on what the terms are of the bilateral loan." ($1 = 0.7939 euros)

Former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum officially no longer lives there.
Notified by USA TODAY that the GOP presidential hopeful is registered to vote in both Virginia and Pennsylvania, his campaign said Friday that he would notify Keystone State officials to take him off the rolls there.
STORY: Is Pennsylvania still Santorum's home?
"He obviously votes in Virginia and would never vote in two places,"said Hogan Gidley, a spokesman for Santorum.
Being registered in two states is not a legal violation, but a person cannot vote in two states.
Gidley said the dual registration was simply a function of having moved and not had a chance to contact his former precinct to let them know he relocated.
"We'll let them know he's permanently moved," he said.
Santorum still owns a home in a Pittsburgh suburb and cast ballots there as late at 2010, despite moving to Virginia years earlier.
He last voted in Pennsylvania in the May 2010 primary in which Republicans nominated Pat Toomey for Senate. Santorum lost his own re-election bid in the state in 2006.
The former senator registered to vote in Virginia in June 2010 and voted in the general election in the commonwealth that year, according to Fairfax County records.
Santorum is hoping his "home state" will give his presidential candidacy a boost when Pennsylvania holds its primary April 24.

Get the legal help you need at a fixed price. No hidden fees or long-term commitment.
Homeowners threatened with losing their home through a bank foreclosure may benefit from the services of a real estate foreclosure attorney. When you buy a home, you usually get a bank loan and agree to repay it with monthly payments. If you fail to make the payments, the bank can start a foreclosure action, which enables them to sell your home to pay off the loan. Foreclosure laws are very detailed and strict about the process the bank must follow. A foreclosure attorney can explain your options to avoid a foreclosure sale, and help you to decide the best course of action for your situation.

Natalie Portman is Pregnant, Engaged Now
Apparently Natalie Portman did more than just have lesbian sex with Mila Kunis while working on Black Swan. She also had heterosexual sex with choreographer Benjamin Millepied who thanked her by putting a baby in her uterus and now they're engaged, according to People. This makes these shots of her in a medieval thong all that more precious because Natalie Portman died today which I'm pretty sure is what I just said in the headline. *looks up* Yep.

Owsley Jazz Unlimited for May 7, 2017 will be "The Steeplechase, Storyville and Challenge Record Labels-Part 2." Theses Danish labels provided a haven for American jazz musicians who were not involved in jazz-rock, avant-garde or the neo-classicism of the 1970's through the early 1990's. The Compositions Of Jerome Kern By Dennis Owsley • Nov 3, 2016 Dennis C. Owsley / Copyright Dennis C. Owsley Jazz Unlimited for Sunday, November 6, 2016 will be "The Compositions of Jerome Kern." Composer Jerome Kern was one of the first to bring jazz rhythms and harmonies to theater music. Paradoxically, he did not like jazz musicians arranging his music for their own performances. But, jazz musicians like his tunes and are still using them as a basis for improvisation up until today. We will hear music from Art Pepper, Ella Fitzgerald, St. West Coast Jazz-Part 1 By Dennis Owsley • Jun 6, 2015 Dennis C. Owsley / Copyright Dennis C. Owsley Jazz Unlimited for June 7, 2015 is "West Coast Jazz-Part 1." Known as "West Coast Jazz," the very popular music of Los Angeles and San Francisco in the 1950's was widely condemned by the eastern jazz critics mainly because it was not based in New York. The music followed the east coast trends but sounded lighter and was more experimental. This week's show will cover the years 1950-1956 chronologically and will have 38 performances of the music which feature Dave Brubeck, Wardell Gray, Hampton Hawes, the Stan Kenton Orchestra, Gerry Mulligan, Chet Baker, Shelly Manne, Shorty Rogers, Bud Remembering Horace Silver By Dennis Owsley • Jun 26, 2014 Dennis C. Owsley / Copyright Dennis C. Owsley Please join me Sunday night, June 29 on Jazz Unlimited from nine to midnight for "Remembering Horace Silver." Pianist, composer, bandleader and jazz giant Horace Silver died at the age of 85 on June 28. He was born in Norwalk, Connecticut in 1928, Horace's father was from the Cape Verdean islands and he had an affinity for those rhythms and Latin rhythms all his life. He was one of the architects of the style known as hard bop and his major pianistic influence was Bud Powell. Silver's first major job was with Stan Getz in 1950. He signed with Blue Note Records in 1952 and remained wit The Pacific Jazz Record Label By Dennis Owsley • May 15, 2014 The Sunday, May 18 Jazz Unlimited show will feature music from "The Pacific Jazz Record Label." Founded by Richard Bock and drummer Roy Harte in the early 1950's in Los Angeles, the Pacific Jazz and World Pacific record labels documented the West Coast Jazz Scene from the cool jazz to the soul jazz eras until it was sold in 1967. This show features the music of Art Pepper, Shorty Rogers, Joe Pass, the Chico Hamilton Quintet, the Bud Shank/Laurindo Almeida group that preceded the bossa nova craze of the early 1960's, Jimmy Rowles, John Lewis, Bill Perkins, Richie Kamuca, the Gerald Wilso The Great Jazz Soloists-Part 1 By Dennis Owsley • Aug 4, 2013 Dennis C. Ows;ey / Copyright Dennis C. Owsley On the August 4, 2013 edition of Jazz Unlimited, we begin a four part series highlighting the great jazz soloists. A great jazz solo is awe-inspiring, exciting, emotional and always tells a story. In the entire history of jazz, there may be less than 140 soloists who are consistently capable of a great solo in nearly every performance. We will hear some of them spotlighted tonight. The musicians featured include Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie, Lee Morgan, Woody Shaw. The Quieter Side Of Jazz-String Quartets and New Music By Dennis Owsley • Nov 26, 2012 Dennis C. Owsley / Copyright Dennis C. Owsley On November 25, 2012, we will play something unusual. String quartets in jazz are usually reading ensembles doing transcriptions or supporting soloists. A few do improvise. The Keys and Strings Hour feature on string quartets will feature the Kronos Quartet, the Turtle Island String Quartet, the Beaux Arts String Quartet, and the Zapolski String Quartet, along with soloists Jim Hall (guitar) and the Modern Jazz Quartet. The second and third hours of Jazz Unlimited will feature new music by Joe Newman, Keith Jarrett, Art Pepper, Dena DeRose, Bill McHenry along with two rare recordings by

|Lost — Lost: Missing Pieces
The Adventures of Hurley and Frogurt is the second mobisode of Lost: Missing Pieces, and the second mobisode overall.
Guest Stars: Jorge Garcia (Hugo "Hurley" Reyes), Sean Whalen (Neil "Frogurt")
Hugo "Hurley" Reyes attempts to leave Rose and Bernard's tent unseen, but Neil "Frogurt" catches him and a DHARMA-branded bottle of Cabernet falls out of Hurley's pack. Frogurt picks up the Cabernet, but Hurley snags it back, telling Frogurt that he was allowed to take it. Frogurt doesn't care about the Cabernet, but wants to know if Hurley is going to make a move on Libby or not. He doesn't think Hurley isn't going to get past laundry duty with Libby and wants Hurley to move on so he can make his own move on Libby. Hurley lets Frogurt know that he's got a date with Libby and that's why he's got the Cabernet. Frogurt leaves, but not before warning Hurley that he's moving in if Hurley can't close with Libby.
- Time Frame: This mobisode takes place during season two's "Two for the Road".
Frogurt: Hello Hurley.
Hurley: Frogurt.
Frogurt: It's "Neil".
Hurley: Neil.
Frogurt: What are you doing in Rose and Bernard's tent, Hurley?
Hurley: Nothin'.
Frogurt: Nothin', huh? Looks to me like you snagged some DHARMA cabernet.
Hurley: Bernard said I could borrow it.
Frogurt: Don't worry, bro. I'm not here to get up in your scene; if you wanna steal from Bernie, you steal from Bernie. I just have a question for ya. What's goin' on with you and Libby?
Hurley: What do you mean?
Frogurt: I mean, are you gonna make a move or not?
Hurley: It's none of your business, dude.
Frogurt: Look, tubby. You're holding up the line. You and I both know that you're not gonna get past doing laundry with her. So, how 'bout you back off and let a real man show her what's what.
Hurley: Really?
Frogurt: Really.
Hurley: Well... it just so happens that I'm way past laundry. Yeah, that's right. In fact, I got a date with Libby right now. We're goin' on a picnic.
Frogurt: You got a date with her?
Hurley: Yeah. I'm bringin' the wine, she's bringin' the blankets.
Frogurt: Well played, Hurley. Well played. But this isn't over. If you can't close with sweet Libby, it's "Neil time". Now, and forever.
