  • Challenger at 20 Years

    It is difficult not to comment on the 20th anniversary of the space shuttle Challenger disaster. Where were you, what were you doing, and how did you feel when you heard the news about the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger 20 years ago? I’ll go first: I was in my office when I received…

  • Mozart

    Mozart was born 250 years ago this past week. His was among the  grandest, most emotionally charged, complex, sophisticated, yet simply delightful music of all time.

According to a report from Reuters on CNN  and Netscape, government statistics were published Thursday. " This "snapshot" of information was based on a survey that found that 54 percent of white non-Hispanic women and…

  • Fodder from Fora

    My on-line mentor, Georgia Griffith, died in September. For so many years, our e-mail conversations were a daily part of my life and her way with words influenced my thinking. Even this week, I have used some of her unique language to describe forum events. Georgia insisted that the plural form of forum was "fora."…
