2013-May-05PRAYERSREQUESTED: Colon, Philip J. (MC1962) calls out attention to the needs of Wichtendahl, Chuck [MC1961]Please keep fellow Jasper and good friend of mine, Chuck Wichtendahl ' 61, in your prayers. I just found out that Chuck has suffered an Hemorrhagic Stroke and though he cannot speak, spends his time asleep in ICU, the MDs are giving his wife Peggy and their Family reason to be optimistic. We pray that that is the case as they treat him more fully. At this time I don't know if Chuck's burst vessel is in his brain or between his brain and cranium but we pray for a full recovery. I was in Chuck's Wedding Party. They lived in Yonkers at the time and now live in Patterson, N.Y. A couple of years ago we prayed for his Son, A career Army Man (still active at the time) who died in his sleep while waiting to attend his Son's Graduation from Air Force Boot Camp. Please keep Chuck, Peggy and their family in your prayers. Thank you. God Bless. Phil Colon Colon, Philip J. (MC1962) # - # - # Wichtendahl, Chuck [MC1961] [JR: My now passed Mother-In-Law had the same thing and never recovered. I know how shocking it was to the family.

D'Errico Web Editor *** begin quote *** He gave a history lesson on how our current economic cycle is similar to that of panic of 1907. Tara Green, who just graduated from Manhattan College, said she got the gist of Johnson’s lecture, which was filled with charts and graphs and at one point, even included an apology from Johnson for being too technical. “I wish I could understand a little bit more of what he’s saying,” the 23-year-old from East Greenbush said. Green, who has a bachelor’s in education, said she’s probably going to delay entering the job market in favor of getting a master’s degree. But that means even more debt, more student loans. But she walked away with somewhat upbeat about the coming year. “The whole message is he’s very positive,” Green said. “What he’s saying over all is very positive and it gives me hope. “It’s tough out there.” That was Johnson’s final message, which included a warning about the coming years. “Stay on your toes in 2011 and 2012,” he said, “and be very vigilant.” *** end quote *** Green, Tara [MC????] [JR: Humorous how stuff surfaces as new?] # - # - # - # - # 2013-May-05 @ 11:21 Dear John, I do not find anything in my 'stuff' for Tara.

2013-May-10JNEWS: Herzman, Ronald B. [MC1965] SUNY Geneseo Distinguished Teaching Professor of Englishhttp://thelcn.com/2013/05/10/commencements-begin-saturday-at-suny-geneseo/GRADUATION Commencements begin Saturday at SUNY Geneseo May 10, 2013 by Ben Beagle *** begin quote *** Two undergraduate ceremonies are scheduled May 18 in Ira S. Wilson Ice Arena for an estimated 1,200 students. SUNY Geneseo Distinguished Teaching Professor of English Ronald B. Herzman will deliver the keynote address at both ceremonies, scheduled for 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. The college began doing two undergraduate ceremonies several years ago when the ceremony was moved indoors to the ice arena. The arena can’t accommodate all of the graduates and guests at once, so about half of the graduates walk in the morning and half in the afternoon. Plans are to move to a single outdoor ceremony when the college’s new stadium is completed. Herzman, who will address “Creative Recycling,” is among the longest-serving current Geneseo faculty members with 44 years of service. At the morning ceremony, Herzman also will be the mace bearer as Grand Marshal. Distinguished Service Professor of Geological Sciences Richard A. Young will be Grand Marshal for the afternoon ceremony. “Ron has served as Grand Marshal in previous years, but it is a distinct pleasure to welcome him as our commencement speaker this year,” SUNY Geneseo President Christopher C. Dahl said in a news release.“Ron represents the heart of our teaching and learning enterprise. He is an eminent medievalist, honored nationally for his teaching by the medieval Academy of America, and he also inspires other teachers. At the same time he is able to communicate the joys of his field to general audiences, through popular presentations for The Great Courses series and lectures throughout the country.” Herzman has served in leadership positions on numerous major committees on campus and was co-director of the college’s Honors Program from 2005-13, succeeding the late Distinguished Teaching Professor of Philosophy Bill Edgar, for whom the program is now named. “Ron has made a tremendous mark on the life of our academic community for decades,” Dahl said. “This will be my last commencement as president and I am looking forward to hearing his remarks.” Herzman, a native of Brooklyn, earned his bachelor’s degree from Manhattan College and his master’s degree and doctorate from the University of Delaware. His undergraduate alma mater conferred an honorary doctorate of humane letters upon him in 1991. Herzman came to Geneseo in 1969 as an assistant professor of English, was promoted to associate professor in 1978 and full professor in 1983. In 1976, he received the Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching and was named Distinguished Teaching Professor of English in 1989. Herzman specializes in medieval literature, humanities and the Bible as literature but has a particular passion for Dante, on whom he has published and presented extensively. In 2003, he and Distinguished Teaching Professor of History Bill Cook jointly received the first-ever CARA Award for Excellence in Teaching Medieval Studies from the Medieval Academy of America. The award recognized their long-time collaborative accomplishments as team teachers and partners in research in their field of medieval studies. Herzman has been involved many years with the National Endowment for the Humanities and was on leave from Geneseo from 1982 to 1985 at the NEH in Washington, D.C., where he created the Seminar for School Teachers Program, a series of summer seminars to help school teachers become better teachers. Herzman was the program’s first program officer, and the NEH continues to ask him to teach the seminars in various parts of the world. # - # - # - # - # Herzman, Ronald B.

Darcy, who took over a program that finished with a 13-8 record last season, which lost in the second round of the Class M State Tournament to St. Joseph’s High School by the score of 6-0, is a former minor league baseball player and is currently a seventh grade math teacher at Harbor Middle School, who is in his first season as a high school head coach. He grew up in Levittown, NY and played baseball at Division Avenue High School on Long Island before moving on to Manhattan College to play for the Jaspers. After a very successful college career, where he was named team co-captain for the 2007 season, he was drafted by the then Tampa Bay Devil Rays in the 38th round of the 2007 MLB Amateur Draft. “I was released by the Rays after my third season, then I played for the Somerset Patriots,” said Darcy. Four minor league seasons later, Darcy retired from the game of baseball and became a teacher. “After my junior year I turned down free agent offers with the Mets and the Rays,” said Darcy. “I wanted to make sure I had a backup plan, I had my student teaching coming up that fall.” He said he chose the right path. “It was the toughest decision I ever had to make, and I had to make it on my birthday,” said Darcy. “But it was my best year that year, it was the better choice.” *** end quote *** Darcy, Jesse [MC????] # - # - # - # - # 2013-May-10 @ 21:35 Dear John, I believe that Jesse is a member of the Class of 2007.

2013-May-11ENDNOTE: Transfer wealth and power from the outsiders to the insidershttp://lewrockwell.com/bonner/bonner596.htmlThe Greatest Wealth Transfer in History by Bill Bonner Bill Bonner's Diary *** begin quote *** All governments engage in larceny and fraud, using their authority to transfer wealth and power from the outsiders to the insiders. But the clever government does so by deception... while the clumsy one does so with no pretense or excuses. In the US, for example, the feds deny savers any financial return from their economies under the pretense of "economic stimulus." Wage earners get nothing, while bankers, speculators and zombie grifters are rewarded with ultra low-cost financing, capital gains, bailouts and giveaways. The scale of this wealth transfer is the greatest in all history. Trillions of dollars are changing hands... But not one voter in 1,000 understands what is happening to him. *** end quote *** By messing with the money, the Gooferment is robbing the Sheeple and Clovers blind. The devaluation of the currency is a silent tax on the poor, those on fixed income (i.e., pensioners), and savers! It's fraud. Money is supposed to be a store of value! Argh! How stupid are we? # - # - # - # - # |
