Thread: Your Taste In Frags?
If you had to briefly sum up your taste in frags, how would you do it?
I will start. For me it is -
"Dont try to be original. Be simple. Be good technically, and if there is something in you, it will come out. - Henri Matisse.
"Wear R de Capucci" - Hirch Duckfinder
anchored in the notions of "freshness" and "refined elegance," but with an underlying tendency towards POLYMORPHOUS PERVERSITY :-)
I tend to favour oriental blends. Animal notes and coumarin are some of my favourite ingredients. I also enjoy a leather aspect in a fragrance.
I tend to like fragrances in the citrus, tea, green, leather, and woody families. I don't really like very sweet scents.
Favorite notes: citrus, vetiver, orange, wood, bergamot, leather, lily of the valley, lavender.
"Perfume is the dream that carries me."
There is always the sky to look at
On one hand Classics, on the other Avant garde.
Of the olfactory groups Oriental is my favourite, but I also enjoy some Chypres and Green Florals.
Favourite notes include: amber, artemisia, bergamot, castoreum, cedarwood, chocolate, cinnamon, cistus labdanum, civet, cloves, coffee, galbanum, hay, immortelle, incense, iris, jasmine, lavender, leather, lily, musk, oakmoss, opoponax, orange blossom, patchouli, peach, pepper, plum, sandalwood, tea, tobacco, tomato leaves, vanilla, vetiver...
"Wovon man nicht lesen kann, darüber muss man schreiben."
Life is a banquet...and I got botulism! -- Me
Orientals. Sultry orientals.
In a few words it would be: classic, masculin, pure and perhaps even a bit dirty-ish (not foul, just a little funky smellin') vertiver
I a few frags: everything in between Vetiver (Lorenzo Villoresi), Original Vetiver (Creed) and Kouros
Definitely oriental.
Anything with lavender, cinnamon, nutmeg, heliotrope or vanilla I'm bound to like.
I tend towards leather, powder, flowers, spices, musk, woods and opulent or unusual olfactive contructions that, even if light, definitely are all the opposite to aseptically clean smells.

I'm all over the map, but while originality is a plus, I guess I have not taken to frags requiring a lot of work to enjoy, either by me or by those around me. That is, the more avant garde scents don't get any bonus points from me for being, um, avant garde. I am trying to experiment more as I get bored with some of the more run of the mill scents in my wardrobe, but "pleasing" still ends up being the only common trait in my tastes.
everything under the sun, i really don't have favorites: i like woods, orientals, florals, harsh and soft, chemical and "natural" etc etc..
You tell me- I don't know what word would best describe my taste. Favorites are as follows:
Jaipur Homme
Drakkar Noir
Knize Ten
Rive Gauche
I'm not sure what common thread binds them all together (pungency?). Of course, I wear all sorts of frags, but those would be my consistent favorites.
woody, fresh, deep, citrus, floral.

my wardrobe
Fresh, spicy/woody and orientals. Typical male/power fragrances fail to interest me, and I've got a bit of a sweet tooth but I do have my limits. Also, degree of originality and sexiness are important factors when looking for new additions (in addition to, obviously, liking the scent).
I like a near-infinite variety of woodsy scents; those built around sandalwood, patchouli, vetiver, or cedarwood, along with aromatic, citrus, floral, and musky elements.
My taste varies from year to year, but right now I'm very into spice with a bit of citrus, wood and/or amber, and the fragrances that have been getting my attention recently are those like Idole, Isfarkand, L'Homme Sage and Noir Epices.
I'm not wild about iris or vanilla; neither am I a big fan of aquatics. Bitter or metallic notes do not interest me usually, and I am a bit repulsed by civet.
My most loved frag is Terre D'Hermès and the one I dislike most is Le Male.
Hi all,
I dont think I am in charge of that - all senses are alive when something superb is in the air - so it is not a question of what I like - but more what my body react to !!!!
Invisible Power
I am terrible when it comes to categorizing my fragrances. I just don't know. But I have noticed that I have quite a few leathers among my favorites. And avant-garde scents as well. I wish a knew more about how to categorize scents though...
Sweet: Yang and A*men
It has to smell bad in a very good way: MKK and Musc Ravager
A little girly: Dior Homme and Noir Epices
I would like it to be a little dark...but can't seem to find dark enough.
Exotic / Unique
Woody / Oriental / Leather / Incense / Spices
Woody and spicy orientals which are somewhat sweet. but I gotta switch to things of a less stuffy calibur during the summer. Another reason why I love fall and winter.
Woody notes/Floral notes/Smooth Foody notes/animalic notes/traditional masculine notes.
I like a fragrance that combines several if not necessarily all of these note groups. But the overall most important thing is that it be fairly easy to wear, smooth and understated with enough sillage that my date and the waiter can smell it, but not the couple at the next table.
Can anyone remember love? It's like trying to summon up the smell of roses in a cellar. You might see a rose, but never the perfume.
-Arthur Miller
That would decribe mine too.....and it is getting harder and harder to define. Only this last year I have found favourites among all from white florals, rose scents to woody chypres and gourmand orientals, plus all the ones that are impossible to cathegorize. I tend to get carried away when I get hooked on a certain "disturbing element" or combination of elements that stand out from the harmony, like the patchouli base in Angel, the dry paper/bread/metal streak in Hiris (ok, that is not listed as note, but I have no better desription of it ) and that mango/burnt incense fuse going on in Timbuktu.Originally Posted by BlueDevilSF
I don't really like the term "unisex".....I think "androgynous" describes my tastes more.
"Wait...is David Bowie really God?" - Penelope Garcia
I love fougere ambery,fougere oriental but can't stand aromatic oriental and dry scents such as dune. I also like chypre fresh but not citrusy maybe borderline chypre fresh/citrus. I also can't stand fourgere fresh such as escape!
It depends on my mood or who I hang out with. If I'm hanging out with junior high school girls I'd wear Angel Man or Black Xs something playful and straight forward. If high school girls, I'd wear Armani Mania,Roma Uomo or Gigli Man. Older girls such as college girls I'd wear whatever I fancy, usually GIT or Rive Gauche.
Top faves: Aramis Devin,Balenciage PH,Zino Davidoff,Trussardi Uomo,BlackXS,Sybaris,Furyo,HoHangClub,Santos Sport,KriziaSpazio,CarverVetiverDry,GIT,AmberSulta n,TeaForTwo,Dzing.

The number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits last week fell slightly more than expected, pointing to an economy that was continuing to gain steam.
Initial claims for state unemployment benefits declined 15,000 to a seasonally adjusted 330,000, the Labor Department said today.
However, claims for the prior week were revised to show 6,000 more applications received than previously reported. Economists polled by Reuters had expected first-time applications to fall to 335,000 last week.
The four-week moving average for new claims fell 9,750 to 349,000.
A Labor Department analyst said no states had been estimated, but noted that adjusting the data for seasonal fluctuations remained a challenge.
While claims have been extremely volatile around the Christmas season, they are still largely consistent with other labour market indicators that have painted an upbeat picture of the jobs market and the overall economy.
Last week's data has no bearing on the US government's closely watched employment report for December.
The government is expected to report tomorrow that non-farm payrolls increased 196,000 last month after gaining 203,000 in November, according to a Reuters poll of economists. The US unemployment rate is forecast to be steady at a five-year low of 7%.
Today's claims report showed the number of people still receiving benefits under regular state programmes after an initial week of aid rose 50,000 to 2.87 million in the week ended December 28.
A total of 4.19 million people were receiving benefits under all programmess in the week ended December 21.
With benefits for more than a million long-term unemployed Americans having expired on December 28, that figure should decline sharply in the weeks ahead.

Elounda's name, stems from the ancient Olous, to become Olounda and finally nowadays Elounda. This ancient part of Crete, had been literally walked by astronauts to pop stars.
Elounda is a slow paced, picturesque, fishing village, blending ancient memories with contemporary living and mouth watering Cretan gastronomy with crystal clear secluded beaches and warm hearted local people.
Its small harbor with its traditionally painted boats is surrounded by shops, taverns and cafes where you can sit and gaze a slow paced world, going by. You will experience that carnal time does not apply here!
Closest sandy beach to your villa is in Elounda, only 2km away, a pleasant five minutes drive with your car. It has the "Blue Flag" award from the European Union for its clear and very safe waters for children to swim in.
In Elounda, there is practically nothing you will ask and will not find. The same goes for the surrounding areas. Either you wish to relax at your villa's veranda or terrace, just gazing at the azure sea of Mirabello Bay, to clubbing and dancing at the nearby city of Agios Nikolaos (10 km).

New President for NWCCA
The North West & Canada Cruise Association has appointed Greg Wirtz to the position of President. He replaces John Hansen, who was NWCCA's president for 12 years.
An indsutry veteran, Greg Wirtz brings more than 20 years experience in marketing, planning and trade development to NWCCA.

Author Amy Stewart isn't afraid to dig into horticulture's dark side, with popular books on diabolical bugs and killer plants. But her latest title, while equally eclectic, is far from sober.
Instead, "The Drunken Botanist" is a merry celebration of botany and booze.
Its heady brew of history, horticulture, science and mixology has made Stewart's fifth book an Amazon and New York Times best-seller and turned her nationwide book tour into signing parties. "We pour cocktails and talk," she says. "They've been great events."
Her appearance here Monday night will be typical. Sponsors of her visit, the San Diego Horticultural Society, will offer one of her festive cocktails, a Champagne Mojito, for sale at her talk and book signing. (Details on the event, open to the public, are at
Stewart's book abounds with amusing anecdotes to share over martinis with friends. Her in-depth research, which included many more botanist interviews than distillery tipplings, amply proves her premise that "every drink starts with a plant."
The chemistry is simple, she writes: "… plants make sugar and when sugar meets yeast, alcohol is born." But as the title suggests, turning an agave into tequila or corn into bourbon requires ingenuity — and a mighty thirst.
"You do lots and lots of work to harvest agaves," she says of the months-long process to obtain the roasted "hearts" for Mexico's smoky spirit.
The book also is a charming cocktail compendium, with more than four dozen recipes for classics like Manhattans and exotics like the Caribou (red wine, whiskey and maple syrup). Plus there are how-tos for homemade infused simple syrup, limoncello and maraschino cherries for mixing and garnishing.
Good cocktails, she emphasizes, start with good ingredients.
"Something bad isn't going to get better in a drink," Stewart says. "Plus a cocktail should be well balanced, getting the blend of tart and sweet just right."
A cocktail connoisseur, Stewart wittily debunks bar myths and fads. For example, "The old joke that a martini should be mixed with nothing more than a rumor of vermouth is best ignored," she writes. "Bartenders who put a splash of vermouth in a glass, swirl it around and toss it out before filling the glass with gin are not mixing a drink; they are simply selling you a glass of gin."
As for the worm in tequila: "These grubs are added only as a marketing gimmick … they are usually a sign of a cheap mescal aimed at drinkers who don't know any better," she writes.
Stewart, who lives in Eureka, where she and her husband own a bookstore, cultivates a "cocktail garden" in a narrow side yard of her Victorian home. Planters hold "backyard bartending" staples such as mint, edible flowers, rhubarb, scented geraniums, strawberries and a rare blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) used to make sloe gin.
Still she envies the bounty of mixers and garnishes in Southern California gardens. "You have all that citrus," she says. "And pomegranates for homemade grenadine. Use the fresh juice, not store-bought, if you make it. I've tried both, and fresh is way better."
Orange or tangerine juice flavors one of her favorite holiday cocktails — The Red Lion Hybrid (Plymouth gin, Grand Marnier, splash of lime and grenadine). Another seasonal drink, Caio Bella, is a variation on Italy's Negroni and pairs equal amounts of gin, sweet vermouth, Campari and grapefruit juice.
Occasionally, a recipe turns whimsical, a reminder that some cocktails need more than alcohol for the right buzz. Consider "The Perfect Pastis: 1 plane ticket to Paris; 1 summer afternoon; 1 sidewalk cafe. Upon arrive in Paris, locate a cafe … secure a seat and order un pastis, s'il vous plait."
Grapefruit-Thyme Cooler
1½ ounces gin
1½ ounces fresh
grapefruit juice
¼ fresh lime
½ ounce thyme simple syrup (see below)
Club soda
Thyme sprig for garnish
To make thyme simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water, heating until sugar melts, then adding fresh thyme leaves and allowing to steep for 1 hour.
To make the Grapefruit-Thyme Cooler: Combine all ingredients except club soda and garnish in a cocktail shaker. Shake over ice and strain into a tall, skinny collins glass, a short tumbler or a Mason jar filled with ice. Top with club soda and garnish with thyme sprig.

Blushing Mary
1½ ounces vodka or tequila
4-5 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 mild or hot pepper, sliced
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
2-3 leaves basil, parsley, cilantro or dill
4 ounces tonic water
Celery bitters
Cracked black pepper (optional)
Slice of pepper, cherry tomato, herb leaf, celery stick or olive for garnish
Combine the first five ingredients in a cocktail shaker; then use a muddler to crush the vegetables and herbs. Shake well over ice and strain into an old-fashioned glass filled with ice. Add the tonic water and stir. Finally, add a dash of celery bitters, crack a bit of black pepper on top, if desired, and add your choice of garnish. Vegetarians wishing to avoid the anchovies in regular Worcestershire sauce can try the Annie's Naturals brand.
From "The Drunken Botanist"
Red Lion Hybrid
This variation on the classic Red Lion is designed to showcase the flavor of Grand Marnier, like the original did, but also to feature fresh, seasonal orange juice. It's fantastic in the winter when tangerines are at their peak.
1 ounce Plymouth gin or vodka
1 ounce Grand Marnier
¾ ounce freshly squeezed orange or tangerine juice
Juice of one freshly squeezed lemon wedge
Dash of grenadine
Orange peel
Shake all the ingredients except the orange peel over ice and serve in a cocktail glass. Garnish with the orange peel.

½ ounce homemade simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water heated until the sugar melts. Allow to cool.)
½ ounce fresh-squeezed lime juice
2-3 springs fresh spearmint
3-4 ounces sparkling wine
(dry Spanish cava works well; avoid rock-bottom)
Fresh or frozen blueberries, raspberries or strawberries (sliced if large)
Crushed ice
Reserve one mint sprig for garnish. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the first four ingredients. Shake with ice and strain into a Champagne flute or tall, skinny collins glass filled with a mixture of crushed ice and berries. Top with sparkling wine and garnish with mint.

1 ounce gin
1 ounce sweet vermouth
1 ounce Campari
1 ounce grapefruit juice
Grapefruit zest

From "The Drunken Botanist"
The Herbarium
¼ lemon
1½ ounces Hendrick's Gin
½ ounce St-Germain elderflower liqueur
3-4 chunks lemon cucumber
2-3 sprigs basil
Club soda

A campaign by a group of former British ambassadors demanded the removal of Tony Blair from his role as Middle East envoy after his recent attempt to "absolve himself" of responsibility for the crisis in Iraq, British daily newspaper The Guardian reported Monday.
The campaign, led by Blair's former ambassador to Iran Sir Richard Dalton, describes the achievements of Blair in the region as "negligible" and he is guilty of seeking to please the Israelis, Al Arabiya reported.
"It is our view that, after seven years, Mr Blair's achievements as Envoy are negligible, even within his narrow mandate of promoting Palestinian economic development. Furthermore, the impression of activity created by his high-profile appointment has hindered genuine progress towards a lasting peace," the letter read.
It also adds that the 2003 invasion of Iraq was the cause of the rise of "fundamentalist terrorism in a land where none existed previously."
The letter, which was written before Friday's seventh anniversary of Blair's appointment as the representative of the "quartet" on the Middle East, is addressed to John Kerry, the U.S. secretary of state; Sergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister; Ban Ki-moon, the U.N. secretary general; and Cathy Ashton, the EU's foreign policy chief.
The quartet, which gathers the U.N., the EU, Russia and the U.S., is in charge of mediating the peace process in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
In response to the campaign, a spokesperson for Blair dismissed the letter and said it had been drawn up by an "alliance of hard-right and hard-left" whose members are "viscerally opposed" to the former prime minister.
"Their attack is neither surprising nor newsworthy. They include the alliance of hard right and hard left views which he has fought against all his political life. Of course he completely disagrees with them over the Middle East. He believes passionately in the two state solution but also believes that can only be achieved by a negotiation with Israel," the spokesperson said.

Ed's TnT Dugout Review: The Classy Way to Carry Your Cannabis
Wily stoners know that when smoking in public, subtlety is key. Carrying your stash in a dime bag emblazoned with little weed leaves—not subtle. Instead, try the Tote 'n Toke dugout. It's inconspicuous, compact, and masks the scent of even the stickiest of ickies with the aromas of exotic hardwoods.

Hello all! Second semester is upon us and, I must say, so far it is fantastic! I have friends in all of my classes, my teachers are all really nice and excited for their curriculum and my classes themselves are very interesting! I've recently been appointed to secretary position for P.H.A.T (yay!) and treasurer for Circle K (also yay!) so I'm eager to get to work and help out as much as I can. Field hockey off-season work-outs begin soon so I'll be able to hang out with my teammates while also preparing to kick booty next season. Though the weather has been a bit frigid and unfriendly, things are looking bright for the 2013 Spring semester here at OWU.
I've come to notice that, in my half-a-year of experience thus gained, time management is really key to staying afloat. College IS different from high school. Your classes will be harder (yes, even more so than most AP courses) and the work load is greater. Add to this friends, athletics, club activities and work and your schedule is pretty full. BUT IT IS MANAGEABLE! I've found that keeping a written record of my activities, like in an agenda, helps me keep my head from falling off. Even leaving sticky notes for yourself, like "don't forget to write the paper" or "chem quiz next week!" will help. I'm just briefly touching on this subject now because a couple of my friends have been asking for advice on juggling so many things at once and I know that I've had this problem before myself. I have a lot more to say on it and will definitely come back to the subject of time management and organization so please look forward to it. So for all of you people feeling like your treading water, hang in there! There are plenty of resources available to you, from material items like planners to professors and friends to coaches and tutors. Keep working hard and enjoy this B.E.A.UUUUTIFUL new year! Good luck with all of your current endeavors!

Concord, Mass. – December 10, 2012 – aPriori, a leading provider of enterprise product cost management software solutions, today announced the general availability of the newest release of its award-winning technology. aPriori 2012r2 delivers expanded capabilities that further enable the platform to be deployed across global manufacturing organizations, continuing the company's mission to drive product cost awareness upstream into the earliest stages of new product development. aPriori 2012r2 also enables customers to more effectively leverage data hosted in other critical enterprise applications such as ERP and PLM systems, and communicate product cost information between all functional organizations involved in product definition and delivery.
aPriori's Product Cost Management software platform was designed to help companies attack cost at the point of origin by equipping design, engineering, sourcing and manufacturing professionals with the knowledge and technology infrastructure to quickly and precisely determine the cost of a part or complete product. A core competency of aPriori is that it leverages computer-aided design and intelligent cost models to quickly generate a detailed manufacturing analysis and cost estimates and quantify the impact of changes to product design, materials, manufacturing processes, volumes and location.
Specific new capabilities being introduced with aPriori 2012r2 that help manufacturers protect product profitability include:
Product Cost Rollups
Most product manufacturers today, especially those dealing with complex machinery, have strategic platform strategies that involve sharing a set of common design, engineering, and production efforts, as well as major components, over a number of distinct models. This necessitates the ability to compare estimated costs for product design alternatives at the functional group (e.g., powertrain) and product levels (e.g., complete assembled vehicle). In addition to the BOM loader mentioned above, aPriori 2012r2 provides a number of new capabilities in this area that enable users to:
"aPriori has historically done an exceptional job at calculating the cycle time and cost of complex manufacturing operations for components and small product assemblies, represented in a 3D CAD model or assembly design," commented Julie Driscoll, aPriori's vice president of strategic product management and marketing. "This new product release elevates our technology platform to a new level, enabling our customers to better integrate and leverage information from other enterprise applications to support cost tracking in NPI projects, evaluate product design alternatives at the functional group or complete product level, and understand the cost implications of different tradeoff decisions. We believe product cost tracking is a critical component to a manufacturer's cost management strategy. aPriori is committed to providing a flexible costing platform that can support the tracking process or output cost information to other systems if a tracking process is already in place."

First Team News
City v Norwich: Club links part II
huckerby mcfc
We take a look at five more connections between the two clubs ahead of Sunday's final game of the Premier League season...
Kevin Bond
Kevin Bond was a trainee at AFC Bournemouth before switching to Carrow Road with his father, John, in 1974.
He played 161 games and won two England B caps during his time with the Canaries before once again being reunited with his father at City after a year in NASL with Seattle Sounders.
Bond made 110 appearances for the Blues in a three-year spell between 1981 and 1984.
Mel Machin
Although his playing career was undoubtedly winding down in 1974, Mel Machin showed he still had plenty to offer when he joined Norwich.
Four goals in 117 games for the Canaries followed for the left-back before he retired after a brief stint in the North American Soccer League.
His first managerial job was with City where he achieved promotion in his first season at Maine Road, masterminding the 5-1 win over Manchester United before leaving two months later, in November 1989.
Martin O'Neil
Now probably best known for his work as manager of Leicester City, Aston Villa and Sunderland, former Northern Ireland international Martin O'Neil was a talented midfielder in his playing days.
O'Neil played and managed Norwich City, making more than 70 appearances for the club in two spells either side of a season-long stay at City.
Martin appeared on 15 occasions for the Blues in the 1981/82 season under John Bond.
David Phillips
German-born Welsh international David Phillips was a right-winger famed for his spectacular long-range goals which earned him many a Goal of the Month nomination in his two-years at City.
He spent four seasons at Norwich after signing for £550,000 in 1989 which was a club record fee at the time.
Phillips scored three minutes into his debut and helped the Canaries to a third place finish in the inaugural Premier League season of 1992/93.
Darren Huckerby
After cultivating a reputation for being one of the most exciting, unpredictable forwards in English football thanks to a three-year stay at Coventry City, Huckerby failed at high-flying Leeds United after signing for £6m.
Signed by City in 2000 at around half the cost, 'Hucks' was instrumental in firing the Blues back to the Premier League, scoring 26 goals in the 2001/2002 promotion season.
He was inducted into Norwich City's hall of fame after five years at Norwich in 2008 where he made more than 200 appearances.
That's all for Connections for the 2012/13 campaign - remember that if you can't be at the match on Sunday, mcfc.co.uk is the best place for previews, updates and reaction to the final game of the Premier League season.

Just bought a elgato Game capture. I have an H8-1100z amd fx 6100 with windows 7 64 bit and amd 6670 card. It has a 600 watt power supply, everything was custom built from here and i have done no overclocking or alterations. The software always says "Capture device not detected"
Reinstalled software, reinstalled usb root hubs doesnt work. When I plug cable into Acer i5 laptop with same OS works fine. Every other usb device works fine, tested a smartphone and external drive today. I have been having some intermitent freezes in the past (not for a while) where everthing including power to mouse and keyboard is out (ctrl alt delete doesnt even work). BSOD 's once and said USB bugcode error, everything been fine for a month but this new elgato isn't working. I have never formatted drive for important things that Need codes like software are on it. Microsoft virus scan is clean.
Usb cable is in tight made a unlisted video of how it works fine on my laptop which has weaker specs, while I plug right back into HP and wont capture. This is a new computer and Don't understand why Elgato says no capture device detected. Here is the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqvbR8fAiW8
Computer is less than a year old and I bought this computer for this purpose mainly. I bought it from here the warranty is still on, any known issues with lack of power supply? I unplugged everything besides elgato, tried every port, including ones in the back no response, tried a different usb cable etc. Restarted software. reinstalled several times. This product is very popular and has good reviews from most everyone.
Please help thanks.

Denim on sneakers is something that can come out really nice, yet also something that can turn out pretty bad. In the case of the upcoming Spring 2012 Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Premium Denim Pack, things have been done right. Consisting of both low top and high top versions of the iconic sneaker, Converse applied washed out premium denim fabrics to the upper in a series of colors. That matched up with leather toe caps, leather details on the front of the sole and waxed laces, makes for a well executed premium sneaker pack, that you we look forward to. (Via FreshnGood)

The National Bank of Abu Dhabi (NBAD) plans to launch 8 new business banking centers in 2012 to further serve small- and medium-sized enterprises (SME) in the UAE.
Since the beginning of 2011 NBAD Business Banking has opened 10 Business Banking Centres all over the UAE.
Two years ago when the world struggled with the financial crisis, the National Bank of Abu Dhabi (NBAD) did not hesitate from investing in serving small- and medium-sized enterprises (SME).
"NBAD realised the potentials for growth in SMEs, which for long had been treated as part of consumer banking, however, what distinguished NBAD strategy in serving this segment is that we positioned NBAD stronger financial standing during crisis to invest in serving SMEs," says Haitham AlRefaie, the Head of Business Banking Group at NBAD.
Mr. AlRefaie within a year and half increased his Group's staff by more than three folds. NBAD's Business Banking Group, which focuses exclusively on SMEs, has produced a number of market leading SME-centric products. To increase the Bank's accessibility to the sector, NBAD also launched Business Banking Centres, which exclusively serve SMEs.
In just over a year, the numbers show that NBAD's strategy has work. NBAD increased SME customers by about 8000, an increase of 54%, between the end of 2010 and March 31, 2012. These customers hold multiple products with NBAD.
"About a year and half ago our approach was to devote resources to understand this sector and use professionals who are experienced and specialised in serving SMEs," Mr. AlRefaie says.
"The NBAD Business Banking Centres recognise the unique needs of SMEs. The set-up, the environ is designed to allow one-to-one, confidential interaction so our professionals can understand each client's business model and explain our products that meet each need," Mr. AlRefaie says.
NBAD has so far opened four Business Banking Centres in Abu Dhabi, four in Dubai, and one each in Al Ain, and Sharjah. NBAD will open at least five more centres in the coming months in Ajman, RAK, Fujairah, and Western Region.
The launch of NBAD Business Banking Centres began in tantamount with the Bank's introduction of new SME-centric products, such as three new Business Current Accounts: Basic, Advantage and the Preferred in addition to that NBAD Business has introduced a Merchant account that offers our business clients the flexibility and rapidity to run their business transactions through a Point of Sale machines; Visa Business Credit Card, which comes with no annual fee and offers 50 days interest-free grace period, travel insurance up to US $150,000, credit limit up to AED 500,000, and cash advance up to 70% of the total limit.
NBAD also introduced in 2011 Business Rent Finance, which offers short term advance from AED 25,000 to AED 500,000 to cover rent expenses.
"Rent is often one of the highest expenses that SMEs incur while running their business. Meeting the cost can either hinder an entrepreneur's ability to grow the business or even stay afloat. This is why we tailored this product to meet an essential need of the entreprise," says Mr. Haitham Al Refaie.
Other SME loans offered by NBAD include Business Vehicle Finance, Property Finance; and Foreign Exchange Solutions and other easy-off-the shelf products tailor made for their business needs.
All banks have a great reason to serve and help Nurture the growth of SMEs. This is a market segment that helps economic growth on a number of fronts. In the UAE, this segment contributes more than 46% to national GDP and account for about 95% of all businesses in the country. SMEs are also a major contributor to job creation. Their growth would increase savings and investments. Moreover, SMEs directly support the growth of large firms and spur creation of other companies.
"Nurturing entrepreneurship would ultimately create greater business for us as it would greatly help the growth of the UAE export sector and diversification of the economy away from oil and gas and help the development of Abu Dhabi into a world destination for tourism and commerce," Mr. AlRefaie concludes.

An octopus solves puzzles;
A chimpanzee can add
An elephant expresses
When it's happy or it's sad
A finch that's after grub-worms
Uses twigs and thorns as tools
We thought them foolish animals
They showed us we're the fools
A honeybee has language, and
A cunning corvid plans—
Though different in important ways
From those we know as Man's
The differences grow smaller, though,
So don't yet raise a cup;
Today's report is sobering….
The apes have lawyered up.
From the NYTimes article:
The Nonhuman Rights Project, an advocacy group led by Steven M. Wise, filed writs of habeas corpus in New York last week on behalf of four captive chimpanzees: Tommy, owned by a Gloversville couple; two at Stony Brook University; and one at the Primate Sanctuary in Niagara Falls. The lawsuits were dismissed, but Mr. Wise said he planned to appeal.
I was going to make a snarky comment about how we can surely afford to give animals all the rights and courtesies we give one another, simply because humans are so terrible to each other already… then I remembered the last circus I went to. And the last local "animal park". And it took all the snark right out of me.

Kicking Off the AAC Nationals
Today kicks off the first day of the AAC Nationals. John and I did some sightseeing yesterday with John and Lynda Hill and all our dogs (well, the ones that we have out here in Calgary). It was a wonderful day in the Rockies as these pictures will prove.
Recallers, you all should be able to get your lessons on the membership site, we had some glitches yesterday so some of you may not be able to log in today. If that is you, please contact Jason AT webmanna DOT com.

As long as there have been humans, there has been love. We're both classics. So is chocolate. Back in 1,000 BC, long before Godiva and Hershey's, the Mayans drank cacao as part of a sacred ritual to give them superhuman strength and induce divine visions. Now we know cacao — chocolate in its raw form — is rich in antioxidants and theobromine, but you probably don't need science to tell you chocolate delights both body and soul. So where am I going with this? A Valentine's Day red velvet cake made with chocolate, love and a secret ingredient.
The velvet cake is also a classic. It's sister to the Depression-era wacky cake, a simple cake made with simple ingredients, among them a scant amount of cocoa. The original is not screamingly red, nor is it overtly chocolatey. It has a sweet, earthy flavor all the more beguiling for being elusive, and a velvety crumb — that's where the name comes from. The reddish tinge may have come from using Dutch process cocoa, which has a rusty color.
One things humans do, though, is explore and invent. We like to play with the classics. Often, this is good — cellphones beat the panties off rotary phones. Sometimes, though, you just wonder. It came to pass we felt we had to justify the name red velvet cake by ramping up the red. With artificial food coloring. Some modern red velvets contain up to a quarter cup of it. This doesn't seem like progress.
I confess I've monkeyed with a classic, too, adding coffee to play up the chocolate. And by adding that promised secret ingredient — a beet. Now, now, stay with me. Before there was red dye #4, there were beets, nature's red food coloring with the added benefit of imparting sweetness. The batter only calls for half a cup of beet. cooked and pureed. A small-to-medium one will do, and lucky you, they're in season now.
What to do with the rest of the beets in the bunch? Roast and eat them. Eat the greens, too. Like most greens, they're nutritionally dense, and milder-tasting than many. Beet greens have a mild chard-like flavor, which isn't surprising — they're related to chard. They're tender and will wilt quickly when steamed or sauteed. Combine the two in this warm dish that uses all the beet, from root to leafy greens, so there's no waste. It has a little sweetness from the dried cranberries, a little richness and crunch from the walnuts and a lot of visual appeal with the beets gleaming like rubies amid the gently cooked greens. It's perfect for a classic Valentine's Day dinner with your sweetie. So's the cake. The chocolate, the beet and the love are baked right in.
Red Velvet Cake (Vegan Chocolate Beet Cake)
If you or your beloved are nervous about a cake made with a red beet, golden beets are milder in color and flavor and one will do the job beautifully.
A single recipe serves 8, certainly enough for you and your valentine. For a big, bodacious layer cake, double the recipe.
Traditionally, red velvet cake is paired with cream cheese icing. Nontraditionally, you can pair it with my chocolate frosting recipe below.And for Valentine's Day, consider spreading a few tablespoons of seedless raspberry jam as a red, delicious filling to sandwich between the layers.
Satiny Chocolate Frosting
To ramp up the mild chocolate flavor of the cake, I went with . . more chocolate. My go-to recipe for chocolate frosting recipe is luscious, satiny, easy, quick and vegan.
It keeps covered in the fridge for a week and in the freezer for a month or two, guaranteeing awesome chocolate delivery when you need it. Bring to room temperature then stir and spread on cakes, dip cookies, fruit, your finger.
- 1-1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- pinch salt (optional)
- 1 smallish beet, cooked* and cooled
- 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
- 1/4 cup grapeseed or other neutral oil
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk or other nondairy milk (or use cow milk if you'd rather).
- 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2/3 cup unsweetened soy or almond milk
- 4 ounces bitter (unsweetened) chocolate, chopped small
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Lightly oil an 8-inch cake pan.
- In a bowl, sift together unbleached flour, sugar, baking soda, cocoa and optional pinch of salt.
- Puree the beet in a blender or food processor. Pour in coffee, oil, vinegar, plant-based or dairy milk and vanilla and process just until they reach a creamy, milkshake-like consistency. With a light hand, mix the wet ingredients into the flour dry till they coalesce and form a thickish batter.
- Pour into the prepared cake pan. Bake for 45 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean.
- * To roast your beets, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Slice the beet root from the greens. Wrap the beets (sans beet greens) tightly in foil. Place in a baking dish and roast for an hour, just as you'd bake a potato. In fact, you can do both at once. Make baked potatoes for part of tonight's dinner and throw your beets in there, too. I think of it as culinary hitchhiking, (proper name: passive cooking). Remove from oven and let cool. When beets are cool enough to handle, the skins should slip right off.
- Heat soy or almond milk in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to just boiling. Add chocolate. Turn off heat, cover pot but leave it on the burner for 10 minutes.
- Remove lid, stir chocolate, which has now melted, into the nondairy milk. Stir until combined, then pour in evaporated cane sugar. Gently stir in the coconut oil and vanilla, continuing for a few minutes until frosting becomes smooth and glossy.
- Let frosting cool slightly then pour into a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate for an hour or so to thicken, then frost as desired.
- Makes 2 cups, enough to frost 2 8-inch layers lavishly.

However, it is vital that such research is conducted, because if Germans do not understand what motivated the behaviour of doctors in the past, they will struggle to make decisions about ethical issues that confront doctors and scientists working in gynaecology, embryology and reproduction today, he will say.
Rolf Winau, Professor of the History of Medicine and Director of the Centre for Humanities and Health Sciences at the Charité (the medical faculty) in Berlin, Germany, will say: "This research should not be about blaming or accusing individuals long after the event, but should shed light on how and why professionals in a particular branch of medicine behaved. Knowledge about such behaviour is as important as the knowledge about the success of scientific medicine. Only this knowledge will make it possible to reflect on our present situation."
His remarks come against a background of Germany having some of the strictest laws on human reproduction in Europe. With the shadow of the Nazi-era eugenics hanging over them, in recent years Germans have prohibited a number of procedures that actually could benefit both parents and children. Examples include: preimplantation genetic diagnosis, which can detect genetic diseases in an embryo before it is transferred to a woman; and freezing embryos for use at a later stage, which means that Germany has one of the higher rates of multiple births in Europe, because doctors have to transfer all the embryos they manage to create, regardless of the embryo's quality - 40% of all ART births in Germany are multiple births, which carry risks for both the mother and the babies. Cloning, surrogacy and egg donation are illegal too.
Prof Winau says: "From 1952 to 1980 there was no research at all into medicine during the Nazi era. Today, there are still a great number of doctors who do not wish to be 'disturbed' by remembering the dark times of German medicine. Only a few hospitals have faced up to their history."
Examples of that history include Walter Stoeckel, professor ordinarius at Berlin University and president of the German Society of Gynaecology in 1933-34. He co-operated with the Nazis and was responsible for the expulsion of Jewish doctors from the Society. "Stoekel made it clear that he and other German gynaecologists placed great hopes in Hitler, sending him their 'enthusiastic admiration' in a telegram," says Prof Winau.
"The execution of the law on preventing genetic diseases in children is an example of the conformity of many Germany gynaecologists to the racial ideas and the concept of racial hygiene of the Third Reich. Opposition to this law hardly existed. There was no discussion in the medical journals about whether the law was ethically justified, but only about how the sterilization could be undertaken most effectively.
"For instance, the head of the Brandenburg gynaecology hospital in Neukoelin, Benno Ottow, remarked that 'never in the history of mankind has the doctor been so integrated into the people's fate and in the people's state as he is under National Socialism'. Full of pride, he stated that the first chamber of the hereditary health court that he belonged to as a judge 'agreed in mutual assessment and consulted thoroughly more than 1,000 people with hereditary diseases in half a year about the requirement for their sterilization'. He then discusses, as greater length, the practicalities of sterilization and how to deal with psychiatric patients who had to be forced by the police to the operating table."
Many scientists seized on the opportunities offered by the regime to pursue their research. "Not all who used this opportunity did so from unscrupulous motives; however, for many scientists, the scientific impetus triumphed over ethical scruples. This definitely goes for the anatomist Hermann Stieve, who undertook a fundamental examination of ovulation in executed women from the Ploetzensee prison between 1942 and 1944. His scientific thirst for knowledge led to him seizing the opportunities offered to him without questioning them," says Prof Winau.
The magnitude of the crimes committed by these men, and many others, makes it vital to understand why they behaved in the way that they did. "We have to study the history of medicine in the Nazi era in order that we understand the roots and mechanisms of an inhuman medicine, and why over 45 per cent of all German physicians were Nazis and why some of them worked as researchers in the concentration camps. We need to study the 'Rassenhygiene', the German version of eugenics, in order to show how far eugenic and racial thinking can go, so that we can have it in mind when we discuss ethical questions on reproduction and fertility. If we do not, we face uncertainty, lack of information and confusion when considering ethical questions in the future.
"The study of Nazi medicine was a taboo in both German states until recently. It is time to deal with this issue in universities, on courses and in society. German gynaecologists and teachers have to confront it. But there is still a lot to do."

Is government planning a back door approach to gun control?
There might not be enough votes in Congress to effectively pass stifling gun control legislation, but that doesn't mean there won't be restrictions imposed.
The feds could enact crippling gun control laws through a U.N. Arms Trade Treaty, that would make it tougher for gun owners, including a grandfather transferring his firearm to a grandson.
Dr. Diana Sorrentino, an instructor on handling firearms at the BRG Firearms Training Academy in the Lehigh Valley, and who has worked for the U.S. Navy at the Pentagon, spoke about the Second Amendment the right to bear arms during a meeting of the Lehighton 9/12 Project last night. She said she spent the last 10 years working with the Navy, adding that many in the Pentagon and Navy refer to Washington D.C. as "Disneyland on the Potomac."
About 100 people attended the gathering in the Beaver Run Rod and Gun Club in Mahoning Township.
Besides talking about the Second Amendment, Dr. Sorrentino also discussed firearm safety, selecting the proper firearm, self-defense, and the importance of training to properly handle a firearm.
Also speaking at the event were state Rep. Doyle Heffley and Lehighton 9/12 President Sandy Dellicker.
"The Second Amendment is about protecting women, protecting children, and protecting your family," Heffley said.
"Currently some of the proposals coming out of Washington are very disappointing," he said. "I can tell you I am committed to protecting the Second Amendment rights."
He mentioned the importance not only of going to the polls on election day, but also getting involved and running for public office.
The state lawmaker said a gun rights rally is being planned in April.
Dr. Sorrentino also remarked about the significance of voting.
She told the story of someone approaching her and complaining about needing an identification card to carry a handgun. She asked the individual, "Don't you vote?"
The individual said "no," to which she responded, "Sell your guns. Get out of this country. You don't belong here."
The speaker also noted that one of the major problems involving the gun debate is that neither politicians nor citizens are properly educated on gun control.
As an example, people do need background checks to carry handguns.
Yet, she noted that yesterday in New Jersey, 20 anti-gun bills cleared the Senate.
It's unlikely any major gun control laws will pass Congress at the present time, Dr. Sorrentino said.
"What I'm concerned about is the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty," she said. Critics of the treaty effort see a nebulous international agreement that does nothing to improve U.S. security, but opens the way to restrict the U.S. civilian's right to bear arms and also to American foreign policy interests.
Of the Arms Trade Treaty, she said the Bush administration rejected it, the Clinton administration wanted it but didn't get it, and "this administration wants it and is pushing for it."
The day after Obama won re-election, he mentioned reopening discussion on the treaty.
Dr. Sorrentino fielded numerous questions from audience members.
One woman said she has a concealed firearms license but doesn't feel comfortable carrying a gun.
"If you have not completed a significant level of training ... and you're not mentally prepared to use that firearm, you will freeze under a threat and likely be killed," the speaker said.
She mentioned how vital it is to be able to respond under stress. She said once your heart beat reaches 150 beats per minute, you lose some of your motor skills. At about 160 beats, decision making ability diminishes.
A certified instructor, she said, "When we train, it's 50 percent mental, 50 percent shooting. A gunfight is 90 percent mental and 10 percent shooting."
"Beyond the heart rate, you will end up with tunnel vision," she said. "Most lose their color perception."
Dr. Sorrentino answered questions referring to the proper starter gun, familiarizing yourself with your gun, and the importance of home security.
She mentioned that being safe not always involves having a firearm, explaining that when in public, you should always be alert and aware of your surroundings.
Doing such activities as texting can make you a target to a predator.
"If you're aware ... you're a difficult target," she said, adding predators like to surprise their victims. They don't want to be identified.

UNDP beneficiary receives prestigious 'Business for Peace Award'Apr 11, 2014
Kathmandu, Nepal — Kesha Pariyar, a beneficiary of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Nepal, won the Business for Peace Award 2014, a prestigious global prize presented by the Business for Peace Foundation, based in Oslo, Norway.
Ms. Pariyar was selected by the Committee of Nobel Laureates after being named as a candidate by UNDP Nepal. The award recognizes her role in promoting peace and stability using the company she created while taking part in UNDP's Micro Enterprise Development Programme (MEDEP).
"This is indeed a moment of pride for the country. With MEDEP support, Kesha has tremendously contributed for the livelihoods improvement and empowerment of marginalized groups and hence very much deserved this award," said Karna Bahadur Thapa, the Minister for Industry.
"Her leadership and success has inspired many others to become entrepreneurs, explore self-employment opportunities and overcome discrimination."
Ms. Pariyar is one of 70,000 beneficiaries of MEDEP, a joint initiative of the Government of Nepal's Ministry of Industry (GoN-MoI) and UNDP. She will be given the award during a special function on May 15th in Oslo's City Hall, the same venue where the Nobel Peace Prize is presented.
"I congratulate Kesha Pariyar. This is a shared success with the government of Nepal, colleagues at UNDP and MEDEP, its current major partner the Australian Government and other previous partners who have contributed to MEDEP," said Jamie McGoldrick, United Nations Resident Representative in Nepal.
Ms.Pariyar comes from a poor Dalit family of Binamare. Struggling to provide for her six children and overcoming social discrimination for being a low caste woman, she became a beneficiary of MEDEP in 1999.
After receiving entrepreneurship development training and access to credit, she established the Manisha Tailoring and Training Centre in 2003. Today, her business provides full-time employment to six people, including her husband and a daughter.
"Business for Peace Honourees are businesspersons who through their own actions and commitments promote socially responsible and ethical business practices in an outstanding way, and stand out as examples to the World," the Selection Committee noted in the award citation.
Ms. Pariyar is also actively involved in organizing Micro Entrepreneurs into groups and associations, encouraging them to advocate for their causes. She was elected as Chairperson of District Micro Entrepreneurs' Groups Association, Parbat in 2005. A year later, Kesha was unanimously elected to lead National Micro Entrepreneurs Federation Nepal (NMEFEN). Today she provides leadership to over 70,000 micro entrepreneurs in Nepal.

The Bulls begin to move on from the longest-tenured player on the roster and the fourth leading scorer in team history Tuesday night as they host the explosive Suns in Chicago.
After finally achieving some semblance of health, the Bulls managed to string together their best stretch since mid November, winning 5 of 7 and vaulting themselves back into the bottom half of the East's sorry excuse of a playoff chase, the front office finally deciding to pull the plug in earnest, trading Luol Deng to Cleveland in exchange for Andrew Bynum (already waived), a Kings first round pick (protected until 2017, when it becomes a second rounder), Portland's second round picks in 2015 and 2016, and the right to swap first rounders with Cleveland in 2015 (if Cleveland's pick falls out of the lottery). What is potentially a mighty haul is also potentially nothing, if the Cavs and Kings do what the Cavs and Kings do and fail to make the playoffs. Two second rounders is next to nothing in exchange for the fourth leading scorer in franchise history.
That aside, the Bulls have a game to play tonight, and a challenging one at that. Having not beaten a team currently over .500 since dismantling the Heat in early December, the Bulls, once again shorthanded with only nine active players (ten if Boozer plays), stand on a precipice. Rumors are flying about the availability of Kirk Hinrich, and one would have to assume that everyone aside from Butler, Rose and possibly Noah is there to be had as the Bulls try to rebuild on the fly. Will Tom Thibodeau allow his team to lose like this, to roll over and die? If not, it's possible this season is last.
Despite losing Eric Bledsoe for an extended period, the Phoenix Suns stand at 7th in the Western Conference, a remarkable feat given how hard they appeared to set themselves up to tank this past offseason. With a young team full of unproven talent and a new head coach in Jeff Hornacek, the Suns have bolted out to third place in the Pacific division, only recently succumbing to the healthy and improving Golden State Warriors. It's the sort of model the Bulls would have you believe they want to follow, cutting costs and getting younger on the fly while staying in the thick of things. Robert Sarver's cheapness aside, that doesn't seem to be something the Bulls FO is capable of.
Probable Starters
Chicago Bulls (14-18, 2nd in Central, 6th in East)
C- Joakim Noah: 7th season. 10.9 points per game, 10.1 rebounds per game.
PF- Taj Gibson: 5th season. 11.9 points per game, 6.4 rebounds per game.
SF- Mike Dunleavy: 12th season. 10.8 points per game, 3.8 rebounds per game.
SG- Jimmy Butler: 3rd season. 12.2 points per game, 4.2 rebounds per game.
PG- Kirk Hinrich: 11th season. 7.8 points per game, 4.7 assists per game.
Phoenix Suns (20-12, 3rd in Pacific, 7th in West)
C- Miles Plumlee: 2nd season. 9.9 points per game, 9.2 rebounds per game.
PF- Channing Frye: 8th season. 11.4 points per game, 5.5 rebounds per game.
SF- P.J. Tucker: 3rd season. 10.8 points per game, 6.5 rebounds per game.
SG- Gerald Green: 7th season. 13.4 points per game, 2.8 rebounds per game.
PG- Goran Dragic: 6th season. 18.8 points per game, 5.9 assists per game.
Key Matchup: Jimmy Butler vs Gerald Green
Suddenly, Jimmy Butler is THE swingman for this team. His first night under the spotlight pits him against the strangely resurgent Gerald Green, three point marksman and super athlete. If he can win that matchup, the Bulls might stand a shot at beating their first "good" opponent in a calendar month (sorry, Hawks).

The minute I heard about this concert I wanted to go and true to their word Double8 got me in with great tickets.
2 sets of 40 minutes was both short yet long enough to wallow in the nostalgia of the eighties.
First was greatest hits minus Lexicon. When Smokie sings being a highlight.
And Lexicon of Love in its entirety in the second half.
Good band and orchestra with orchestrations to everything by Anne Dudley who conducted as well. It was great to have her there as well as the band.
Martin Fry still has a voice and was let down by boxy sound at the start. His rather lovely backing singers provide very good support.
The crowd of greying forty to fifyty somethings discgraced themselves appropraitely by getting up and dancing in the second half although after 30 mins most had toi sit down and have a rest.
The Look of Love was the hit of the night and was duly encored.
A smashing trip down memory lane. I hope they filmed or reordered it. Or do it again. They were very good tunes. I went home and bought Alphabet City.
And I wouldn't mind an album with Anne Dudley's orchestrations either.
A good excuse to go back into the studio.

Musician in Residence, Shands Arts in Medicine; music director, Unity of Gainesville; consultant, Society for the Arts in Healthcare
When Cathy DeWitt plays music bedside at Shands Hospital, she transforms the patient experience. Sometimes it's just a squeeze of a hand where there was none before, and sometimes its a big singalong with family, friends, and staff.
For over 40 years Cathy has been sharing her music in Gainesville, and she has touched the lives of thousands of people. As a performer she has played in countless benefit concerts and events that support our local and national charities, including Stop Children's Cancer!, the American Heart Association, Habitat for Humanity, and the Alachua Conservation Trust. Money raised at these events sustains these vital organizations who help so many in our community.
As the Musician in Residence at Shands Hospital, Cathy gets referrals from staff and brings music directly to patients - singing and playing guitar, keyboards, harp, and psaltery at the bedside. She organizes an array of musical experiences throughout the hospital, including concerts in the Atrium, the Bone Marrow Transplant unit and the Cancer Infusion Center. As Music Director at Unity of Gainesville, she provides the musical programming for this congregation, and she is in demand to travel nationwide to other churches as a guest performer. Cathy is also an educator, and she taught music to hundreds of school kids during her time as music teacher at several schools, including Brentwood and Gainesville Country Day schools. As a performer she appears in many different ensembles, including the all-women string band Patchwork and the jazz ensemble MoonDancer. As a composer she has donated compositions for local plays and for the Songs of Love Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing personalized songs for children facing tough medical or emotional challenges.
Cathy is well known not only as a musician, but as someone dedicated to this community. For 15 years she volunteered at WUFT-FM as the host and producer of the folk and Americana radio program "Across the Prairie," and she kept many listeners informed about the musical and artistic happenings in Gainesville and the surrounding communities. When Cathy invites musicians and artists to visit our community, they often find themselves in a whirlwind of activities. They would be guests on her show, and she books a full schedule for them at a variety of venues so the shared experience of the music can be spread as far and wide as possible. This is her mission: she works to bring music as an active experience into the lives of everyone in our community, especially those who need it most.
