Thanks for the links DR Swingdoor. I did eventually catch up with all the Crack references! We're all HHW junkies.

My back may ache tomorrow, of course, since I've been using a few muscles in ways they normally don't get used, but it was worth it.


Perhaps der Brucer can spill an occasional container of blueberries at home....just to keep you in "shape"!

Edisaurus - have you looked at the second list of CDs?  Just want to make sure you have a chance to see it, as certain titles are now either gone or close to it.

Sold out: Peter Pan, The Burt Bacharach Album, Sondheim At The Movies, Rupert Holmes

Close: Unsung Irving Berlin, Unsung Sondheim

Well, I am glad to say that the head office sent someone to look at the hotel, and they say it is "questionable." So they have rebooked folks at another hotel.

Our new board chair has us out of meetings in about 2.5 hours, instead of the six and seven hour meetings the previous chair conducted.

DR Laura re: sanjaya.

The thing is the song he sang yesterday was the best he has done. The past weeks he has been quite horrible, basically a joke.  So no i do not think he should be the american idol.  The winner should be really good.  I have not always loved the winner. BUt if sanjaya were to win i would be extremely upset!

My goodness, this is a slow news day here at haineshisway.com.  As Babs and Donna said, Enough Is Enough.  Let's get some postin' goin' on.

I've started proofing - finding silly little spelling and grammar errors, and a couple of things I have to smooth out - mostly one particular description which I wrote in a certain way, without having really seen a photo of what I was describing.  I now know exactly how to describe it and will redo that little section.  I'm forty pages in and I'm very pleased with how it's reading.

Good evening!  I thought I'd better spend some time here tonight, because I'll be E&T tomorrow and much of Friday.  

Tomorrow, I'm going to Lima (OH) Public Library to give a lunchtime presentation to their local nonprofit coalition, then on to Bluffton for a week-before-the-big-event pow-wow with the local arrangements chair for the AAUW/Ohio conference.

Friday, I'll check in here early, then take DH Richard to the local outpatient center for surgery on his left shoulder.  The MRI didn't reveal a rotator cuff tear like he had 4 years ago in his right shoulder, but some arthritis that needs to be debrided.  The doctor said sometimes they find tears that the MRI didn't see, but not very often.  Vibes would be appreciated.

The good news is that I'm away from the downtown homeless shelter public library now until next Tuesday.

From today's Washington Post:

Seating in Ancient Greek Theater Found to Help the Acoustics

The Greek theater of Epidaurus has long been considered a marvel of acoustics. Over the years, people have come up with a number of explanations as to why those who sit in the back of the semicircular theater, built in the 4th century B.C., can hear performers on the stage with such clarity.

One theory was that it had to do with the wind patterns in the area, but modern actors performing on windless days sounded just as clear.

Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology this month showed that the secret is in . . . the seats. Nico Declercq and Cindy Dekeyser found that the seating, which is carved from limestone, creates an acoustic filter that screens out low frequency crowd noises and reflects higher frequency sounds from the stage.

In a paper in the April issue of the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, the researchers said that while the filtering also suppressed part of the range of frequencies of the human voice, "the human nerve system and brain are able to reconstruct this fundamental tone by means of the available high frequency information."

Glad to hear it, DR LAURA. I had a situation like that once. The secretary booked several of us into a motel which sounded fine from the directory she used. Unfortunately, we did NOT discover the truth until we got there. Ugh! It was cheap for a reason (several reasons, actually).

BK

Have you not tried the FedEx Kinko's on Ventura and Laural Canyon. I used them when I was in town the last time. I believe they are close to you. Open 24hrs and would never turn a job away even if it means getting another location to help out.
