Our Love Goes Out To Rep. Giffords

Posted on January 9, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Our love goes out to Rep. Giffords, family, and constituents. For a longtime I’ve felt that each one of us must look deep inside ourselves for what we have in common and not what separates us. It was true when Lincoln was shot, it was true with Kennedy, Martin and Malcolm and it’s true now. Are we part of the problem or part of the solution  – one nation! – Daniel Tisdale, HW

Organ Tribute To Michael Jackson At Trinity Wall Street

Posted on July 21, 2009 by | Leave a comment

Sent by Harlemite Tod Roulette

When I first saw this I had to let out a smile. An “Organ Tribute to Michael Jackson”. The Episcopal Church sure knows how to have a good time. Organist, Robert Ridgell plays a tribute to Michael Jackson in the postlude for Trinity’s June 28th service. Beat It and ABC come together in this fantastic improvisation.

As a die hard Michael Jackson fan, this was neat to see. I just wish the sounds were coming from pipes not speakers and subwoofers. In any case, the organ sounds good in this performance. I dont think Ive ever seen a postlude that got a standing ovation!

jackson9Christopher Weiss wants to be a doctor, but he is not, at first glance, a dream candidate for medical school. He went to junior college and got mediocre grades—and then he spent the better part of the next decade trying to make up for his feckless youth. Getting his bachelor’s degree at U.S.C., doing breast-cancer lab research, working as an E.M.T., and getting his paramedic’s license, the 29-year-old slowly built a résumé that could impress admissions boards. But he always worried that he wasn’t saving enough of his income, that med school would require him to take on a crushing load of debt. Then, in 2007, his boyhood friend Ben Evenstad, also 29, offered Weiss a chance to make a lot of money. When Evenstad co-founded the photo agency National Photo Group, he hired Weiss and taught him how to be a paparazzo.
