Youth Exchange Program
Annually, 8,000 students from more than 80 countries take part in the Rotary Youth Exchange Program worldwide. Students selected for this program typically spend an academic year abroad. The Meredith Rotary Club typically sponsors one student to participate in this program each academic year. To qualify, a student should be between the ages of 15 and 18 1/2, in the upper-third of his or her academic classes, of good character, emotionally stable, and in good physical condition. Most importantly, he or she must be able and willing to be a good ambassador. The student, or the student's family, is expected to pay travel and insurance costs, as well as provide some spending and emergency money. The total cost is approximately $4,500, but could range up to $8,000, depending on airfare and the cost of Rotary sponsored events in a particular country. The host Rotary club and family provide room, board, and schooling.
The Rotary Youth Exchange program has also brought young people to the Meredith area from all over the world to learn about the United States, promote understanding of different cultures, and study in a new environment. The Meredith Rotary Club typically hosts one student each academic year. Students usually live with two different host families during their 10-month stay and attend Inter-Lakes High School. While the foreign students are enriched by the experience, most host families feel they equally benefit from the program.
For more information about being a Rotary Youth Exchange student or host family or to express interest in the program, please contact Dean Gulezian at 677-7172 or email@example.com . Extensive information about the Rotary Youth Exchange Program can also be found at the following website: http://www.exchangestudent.org/
The Meredith Rotary Club recently hosted 16 youth exchange students from Rotary District 7870 for Columbus Day Weekend 2012. The District covers much of Southern Vermont and Southern New Hampshire. The students were from Austria, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Denmark, Ecuador, Finland, France, Germany, Mexico, Romania, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, and Thailand. Students in the Rotary Youth Exchange Program spend the entire school year with host families in the United States. Three other students joined the group, one from Meredith who spent last year in Chile, and two who are Meredith�s candidate to spend next year overseas.
On Friday evening October 5th, students met their weekend host families at the Meredith Community Center, during a dinner sponsored by the Meredith Rotary Club. Saturday October 6th began with a trip to the Squam Lake Natural Science Center. From there, the group attended the Sandwich Fair, compliments of the Sandwich Fair Association. They then enjoyed winding their way through the corn maze at Moulton Farm, compliments of Rotarian John Moulton. Then it was off to Funspot, the Weirs Beach Go-Kart track, and making tie dye shirts, before ending the day on the Mt. Washington dinner/dance cruise. After spending Sunday morning October 7th with their weekend host families, the students returned home.
Events such as this are rewarding experiences for both the students and host families. Anyone interested in being a Rotary Youth Exchange student in 2014-15 or hosting a student during the 2014-15 school year, should contact Dean Gulezian at 677-7172.

An 11-year-old is being hailed a hero Thursday after running to get help for his mom who was being attacked.
The Linn County Sheriff's Office says it happened early Monday morning on the 3800 block of Southwest Second Place in Scio.
Police eventually arrested Tyler Burnard, 29, for domestic assault against his significant other.
The Linn County officials said the attack happened at the family's home around 3:30 a.m. Monday.
Investigators said Burnard began attacking his significant other in the middle of the night, beating, biting and strangling the victim.
As the victim cried for help, deputies said her son tried to intervene and stop Burnard, who his 6'1" and weighs 270 pounds.
Deputies said the 11-year-old boy was tossed to the side, but didn't give up and ran to get help from his neighbors.
Investigators said it was those neighbors who rescued the victim from Burnard and then blocked him in a bathroom using a mattress until deputies arrived.
The victim told Fox 12 that Burnard's actions were a result of bipolar disorder.
She wants the community to know that the man she loves isn't a monster and simply needs help.
Burnard was taken to a hospital for a mental evaluation and then booked into the Linn County Jail on numerous charges.

The Association was formed to bring about better business conditions for the petroleum retailer and to develop a diversified package of significant dealer-member benefits.

(CNS) A man suspected of stealing a car during a burglary at a Redondo Beach home was killed by Long Beach police this morning after firing at officers at the end of a vehicle chase, authorities said.
California Highway Patrol officers chased the suspect from Redondo Beach into Long Beach shortly before 1 a.m. but lost sight of him as he exited the southbound San Diego (405) Freeway at Studebaker Road, Long Beach police Officer Marlene Arrona said.
Minutes later, Long Beach police spotted the vehicle and gave chase, she said. The suspect crashed into a garage in the 6400 block of Keynote Street near Hackett Avenue and was killed in an officer-involved shooting after he brandished a gun and fired on officers, Arrona said.
The suspect, who Long Beach police Sgt. Dave Marander described as a young man, was pronounced dead at the scene. No officers were injured, Marander said.
The suspect was driving a white BMW, according to a news photographer. The vehicle was stolen during a burglary, Arrona said.

Dude, I would kill for Klingon battle gear or Jedi robes, for serious. The, uh, Peacekeeper gear, specifically Scorpius' outfit, might make my hunter look a bit on the dominatrix side, but I would not say no to that either. But I think Goa'uld really isn't going to work for Warlocks, too much bling - and they don't really have a unified look except "as gaudy as I could possibly make it".

And I will be very curious to see the first trailers for Star Wars: Episode 7. I'm looking forward to it a lot, especially considering George Lucas won't be as meddling. It's long been time for him to step aside.
Too bad Brad Bird isn't directing this episode. He did a fantastic job with The Incredibles, and I quite enjoyed Mission: Impossible 4.
Time to put a huge chunk of that profit back into the parks....
Yeah, the gang at Disney sure must be worried about how to "respond" to all of that competition coming from the Harry Potter attraction down the road.
On a personal note, I own and love DVC, but by all accounts it should not be included in theme park revenue for anyone who is looking at serious long term trend.
On the other hand, I could play devil's advocate and say they'll be more willing to spend money if they're making profits, but this leadership team hasn't been investing in the parks with that approach.
I Respond: And when they buy the time at the Grand Floridian and they stay at the Grand Floridian ... don't they go to ... um ... The Walt Disney World theme parks?
And Disney's response to this goes something like this: "hahahahahhahahaha! Unless by parks you mean DVC resorts. If so, then yes, we are reinvesting a good bit."
It will probably be some time before enough people refuse to go to Disney b/c of cost and/or lack of attractions. Until that happens, Disney will still lag in new attractions and keep building DVC like crazy. Maybe when this awful FP+ system kicks in fully (doing away with KTTK keys soon) it will set off enough people and hasten this. But I doubt it.

Chapter 20 Reviews
"Abby! What the hell is the matter with you?" Wanda, your friend from high school asks as she enters your office. You look up at her with no expression on your face. "You've been staring at that same damn paper for 30 minutes. And you have that same expression on your face," shes says. You still don't answer her "Whats wrong!?" she yells at you and closes the door, she sits down in one of the chairs like shes one of your clients or something.
"I don't feel like talking about it," you say with the same expression on your face that you have had for the past 30 minutes according to Wanda.
"You know you can tell me about it," she says. You shake your head.
"You wouldn't wanna talk about it if it happened to you," you say quietly.
"Ok. Was it something Jordan said… or did?" she asks. "Cuz you know that I can get Randy to kick his ass," she says with a slight smile as she leans in closer to your desk. You scoff at her comment…
"How can Randy kick his ass if I have no idea where the fucker is!" you yell sadly.
"Uh…umm huh?" she asks like shes confused. You open your mouth about to say something when your boss Brandi comes and knocks on the door and practically sticks her face to the window like its glued there. You both just sit there and stare at her, she looks a little mad. She does some jester telling Wanda to get up and leave the room. She stands up smiles at you she goes to open the door but stops. "We can talk about this later," she says and opens the door. Brandi moves from the door. She looks at you then at Wanda.
"Im not payin for you two to sit around and talk. Do that crap on your lunch hour," she says all pissed.
"Now get back to the drive thru," she says turning to Wanda. You always hated your boss, shes too bossy… she can hardly handle her self. She things shes so cool, shes always finding something someone is doing wrong just so she can have something to do. She also things shes some kind of preppy bitch, shes stuck up. However, she is pretty, surprisingly shes a young black woman and shes almost a twig. You role your eyes as she walks away…
Later at lunch, you explain to Wanda what happened with Jordan. You figure that shes never gonna give it up so you might as well tell her everything. She still wants to get Randy to kick his ass but even more than she did before.
You walk in the door of your house… "Hey Mom," Jake says from the living room.
"Hey, uhh any chance?" you ask him as you sit on the other couch and lay down.
"No," he says. You sigh loudly.
"I really don't understand what his problem was… is," you say.
"Who cares about him, he obviously don't care about us," Jake says.
"Not that he would, but did he ever mention anything to you, or did you ever over hear him talking about something to do with this?" you ask sitting up and looking over at you son.
"No," he says sadly. "Anyway, umm remember Hailie?" Jake asks like hes trying to lighten things up.
"Who?" you ask confused. The name sounds a little familiar but not too much, there is a few Hailie's out there. (lol)
"Shes a friend from school," he says. "You met her once before, anyway shes having a party Saturday and I wanna go," he says. "So can we?" he asks.
"Sure, I guess I don't see why not," you say and smile at him. "What time?" you ask.
"Noon to eight," hes says.
"Where is it?" you ask while yawning.
"The rich part of town," he says and hands you an invite. "We need that to get in," he says.
"Why do we need this?" you ask while glancing at it.
"We have to show it to a guy. Cuz theres gates and we can't get in if we don't have it," he says… you nod in understanding…
"Mom, can we go now?" Jake asks as he comes into the living room as you put your shoes on.
"Yes, just relax," you say.
"Well hurry!" he yells and goes outside.
"Whats his damn hurry?" you ask yourself. You grab the invite off the coffee table where you left it and head out the door.
"Let's go," Jake says.
"Just chill!" you almost yell at him. You follow the directions on the card to the house. You pull up to an entrance theres a huge white metal gate. Damn you think to yourself as the gate opens. Theres a sign that says 'park here' you turn left and find a parking space. You open the door and get out, theres about 10 cares here so far. You walk up another dive way looking thing. You walk up to another gate just like the one you saw before. Behind that is a huge ass white house. "Damn," you say out loud. You look to your right and theres this little room with a window. A guy in there opens it.
"Good afternoon," he says with a friendly smile. "Do you have the invite?" he asks.
"Yes," you say handing it to him. He puts it in a metal thing, a red line scans it and it beeps, a green light shows up and the gate opens. You walk up to the house and knock on the door. Soon after the door opens and there is that Eminem guy that Jake likes. "Ooohh that explains all the high class crap," you say. He looks at you socked.
"Hello Jake," he says. "Uh come in," he says Jake runs in the house. Then Eminem turns back to you, he clears his throat. "Sorry you have to deal with all this 'high class crap', but I hope you enjoy the party," he says putting air quotes around 'high class crap.' You ignore his comment then walk away following Jake. You feel a hand on your shoulder you stop. "Are you Jakes mom?" he asks. You shrug off his hand can continue to walk away. You don't bother to look back at the idiot. You follow Jake into the back yard. He goes over to a girl who you assume is Hailie. You sit down in a chair and watch all the people. You sit for not even 10 minutes. That Eminem guy comes up to you again. He stands and stares at you.
"What do you want?" you ask getting annoyed with him.
"You never answered my question," he says.
"Yes, I am Jakes mom, and I'm only here for him," you say getting more annoyed by the minute with him hovering over you. Some kid starts yelling. You and Eminem both start staring at him. Hes playing with the springs on the trampoline, it looks like hes trying to pull the springs out and theres kids on there trying to jump.
"HEY!" Eminem yells and runs over to the kid.
You see this as a chance to get away from the idiot. You get up and walk away. You decide to go in the house. It's very large and you have no idea where the bathroom is. You don't know what your doing but you go upstairs… on the walls are CD's and pictures of Hailie and who you assume to be his friends. You stop in the middle of the hall and just stand there confused, you feel like an idiot. A young girl… Hailie comes up to you.
"What are you doing?" she asks.
"Im lost. I've never been in a house so big," you say. She laughs slightly…
"Oh. Aren't you Jakes mom?" she asks.
"Yes," you say with a smile. "Uh where's the bathroom?" you ask.
"Right there," she says pointing to a door right by the one your standing at.
"Oh," you say with an embarrassed smile.
"Oh, I'm Hailie by the way," she says holding her hand out; you shake it with a smile.
"Abby," you say and then let got. She smiles then leaves the hall and you go into the bathroom.
You go back outside after changing into your swimsuit. You see a bunch of kids playing Marco Polo. You jump in. You spot Jake and swim over to him. "Can I be Marco?" you ask.
"Good luck with that," Jenny says. "They all cheat," she says specifically pointing at Jake.
"Im not stupid, I can do it," you say. "Marco!" you yell…
"Polo!" they all yell. You follow the sound of Jakes voice.
"Marco!" you yell again.
"Polo!" Jake yells you can tell your getting closer to him, you start to feel around. You hand hits what feels like a shoulder. You open your eyes. "Hello," says Jake with a smile.
"Ha I win!" you say proudly.
"I let you get me," he says with a smile.
"Sure," you say. "Im thirsty, come with me," you say grabbing Jakes arm.
"Hey!" yells Jenny. "Where are you two going?" she asks.
"Away," Jake says. You both get out the pool and grab a towel off the pile of towels that Hailie's dad set out. Then you both go into the kitchen where all the drinks and food are sitting. No one is in the house…
"Uh… let's go into the living room and talk," you say.
"Ok," Jake says following you into the living room. You two sit on the couch and start talking about random things. A few minutes pass by.
"Can I ask you a question?" you ask looking over at Jake.
"Yeah, shoot," he says with a smile.
"Ha, I…umm was wondering, if uh you would uh go out with me?" you ask nervously. He smiles… You don't feel so nervous anymore.
"Yeah." he says with the smile still on his face.
"Umm.. But lets wait a while before we tell out parents," you say.
"Ok," he says and you continue to talk.
You're sitting at a table talking to some other parents. You feel a hand on you shoulder like before. You look up; it's that Eminem guy again. "Not again," you mumble. "Why are you bein like this?" he asks.
"Cuz you're just a guy. Ok," you say and get up and walk away again.
"Whats that supposed to mean?" you hear him yell. You stop and turn around.
"You're just another stupid guy just like the rest of them," you say walking back over to him. He rolls his eyes. You walk away again for the fourth time.
"Oh come on!" he yells but you ignore him and keep walking. "Hey!" he yells you can tell that hes running after to you he stops you by putting his hand on your shoulder again.
"Sense you're bein rude for no reason, I'll just ask for your name and then you can go do you're thing," he says like hes mad. You don't really want to give him your name but if I can get him to leave you, alone you might as well.
"Abigail Miller," you say then walk away form him.
"Im Marshall by the way," he yells but its sort of muffled cuz you walk away fast.
You walk over to your shed and pull out your cell… you dial a number. "Hey Em," says the mans voice.
"Yeah hi, he could you do me a favor?" you ask quietly, looking around hoping that no one is watching or listing to you.
"Yeah what?" he asks.
"Could you look up an Abigail Miller for me?" you ask.
"Yeah, uh is this some girl you like or something?" he asks.
"Well…its complicated…but yeah…," you say while pacing. "Could you please just do it?" you say sort of angry with him.
"Yeah, just gimme a second…," he says…
Its getting kinda late…it is around 6pm already times been goin fast. Hailie just blew out her candles it was her early summer party cuz her birthday is in December, and she wanted to have it in the summer so she can actually do something for the party instead of sitting in the house doing nothing. Everyone is eating cake. You glare over at Marshall; you catch him staring at you. He quickly looks away. You role your eyes without anyone noticing. Whats his problem? you think to yourself. "Are you ok?" a woman asks. You look at her funny.
"Im fine," you say then look back at Marshall whose staring at you again. You look at him like 'what', he pretends to look at something else, but hes smiling. Why is he smiling when Im looking at him like Im gonna kill him? you think then take a bite of your cake. You glance at him again cuz you get this feeling. Hes looking at you again. "Creeper!" you yell and everyone just stops what they are doing and stare at you. You turn red and look down and start playing with your cake. You keep one eyes on Marshall, he must have noticed because he stopped staring after that.

TEAMS: Atlanta Hawks, Toronto Raptors, Los Angeles Lakers, Phoenix Suns
With Rudy Gay now off the trade market, NBA trade rumors will latch onto a new player. That player appears to be Josh Smith. And it did not take long for something to coalesce in the rumor mill. Alex Kennedy of HoopsWorld reports the Suns have initiated preliminary discussions with the Hawks for Josh Smith. And, he reports, if Phoenix does not get Smith they would plan on pursuing him in a sign-and-trade deal. That thought, might push trade discussions past the trade deadline. As Kennedy points out, the Suns are looking for a "big-name" player to jumpstart their post-Steve Nash era. They went after Eric Gordon in free agency only to see New Orleans match the max offer Phoenix offered Gordon. The Suns clearly do not want to be down too long. And Smith, if his reporting that the Suns view Smith as a franchise cornerstone, would fit that bill. That seems to be a win-win for Atlanta, Smith and Phoenix. The Hawks inability to sign an extension and their somewhat open sh...

Privacy laws - a grey area in photography
Last week saw a Scottish amateur photographer, Stefan Karpa, confronted by security guards for taking photos in a shopping area. The incident was videoed and quickly uploaded to Youtube, receiving over 7000 views and rallying support from photographers everywhere with the common outcry, 'we should be allowed to photograph in a public place!'
It turns out the said street in Edinburgh is actually private property, which seems somewhat ridiculous considering it is a shopping precinct in need of passers by. The fact that it's a public thoroughfare means that the public have a right of access - it's a public space. And the general understanding is that if this is a public space, then there's a right to take photos. But according to the street, Multree walk, which hosts luxury shopping outlets, including Harvey Nichols, both photography and bikes are banned. But without a sign, who's to know this. It's contradictory and confusing.
Edinburgh's photographers agreed and, keen to protest for their rights, a photography flash-mob descended on Multrees Walk with cameras at hand to snap the shops from the edge of the private street in 'public space'.
But with large areas of cities being handed over to developers it blurs the boundaries of where public space ends and private property begins. It confuses us of knowing where it is safe to take photos, and without the fear of being ambushed by security guards.
But this hasn't fazed internet search giant Google which, despite hundreds of invasion of privacy claims and law suits, has photographed the world from its Street View cameras. This month it took its controversial mapping service to the last continent, and southernmost point, of Antarctica, making it now feature locations in 30 countries and all seven continents.
It seems all very nice being able to navigate around the snow-capped mountains of the South Pole and familiarise yourself with the continents' penguins from the comfort of your armchair. But when it means Googlers can search and view your front door, god forbid! Oh, how the tables, or lenses, have turned. We may enjoy harking on about photographer's rights but when it comes to a global giant pointing the lens we scream, 'invasion of privacy'!
Makers claim that 95% of the UK has been photographed and is now mapped out on Google's servers. And although when it first launched in the UK, Street View images of sunbathing girls and children fighting raised concerns, it has never in fact broke any grounds of privacy.
The UK's Information Commissioner's Office investigated and found that Google was playing by the rules and dismissed the idea that the consent of everyone photographed should be sought before publishing.
Some Buckinghamshire villagers didn't agree with the 'Big Brother' idea and took the law into their own hands when a Google 'Street Viewmobile' (a car with nine, 2.5 metre-high multi-directional cameras) came to take pictures of their homes. Broughton residents joined together and attacked the car and formed a human barricade to stop the vehicle continuing to photograph.
This is all rather extreme and most right-thinking people know Google is breaking no laws and think in fact it's a fantastic piece of technology and an additional aid to navigation.
However, before its launch in Germany in a few weeks time, thousands of German citizens have been able to 'opt out' of Google's Street View with help from the government who have decided extra protection is needed. Residents have been able to submit a request to Google to have the images of their property blurred out ahead of the launch.
Google had to draft in extra staff to cope with demand and it today announced that a total of 244,237 German households opted out. Imagery of the 20 biggest cities in Germany has been taken so far, totaling 8,458,084 houses, meaning 2.89% have opted out. This figure may of course rise after the launch when German households will still be able to opt out.
Google is playing this down as a small, insignificant number of households, while privacy campaigners will probably take the opposite view. Where does that leave photographers? Follow Google's lead until people start sending 'blurred out' requests? And just hope we're not snapping while accidentally crossing private shopping boundaries.

sea of cosmos
This was absolutely amazing today. At one of the parks where we walk our dog we came upon this huge field of cosmos flowers, so beautiful. A lot of the plants were even taller than me, most of them waist high and over, and you could walk into the field and just see purply pink and white cosmos as far as your eye could see in all directions. These flowers grow along the side of the road a lot as soon as you get out of the city into the surrounding country side, but you just about never see a huge field of wildflowers like this, and not in a city park. Even out in the country, in the province I live in, it's not like in Europe, you just don't get these huge fields of wild flowers. So it was very special and such a wonderful sight to see.

Clash between public's favorite recent postage stamps and collectors'
The United States Postal Service recently released its list of the most popular stamp issues, based on the quantity of U.S. stamps saved rather than used.
The 29-cent Elvis Presley postage stamp, issued in 1993, has staying power, remaining at the top of the heap.
Following the Elvis stamp: The 39-cent Wonders of America, the 39-cent Marvel Super Heroes, the 41-cent Star Wars, the 29-cent Wildflowers, the 29-cent Rock n' Roll, the 39-cent DC Comics Super Heroes, the 34- and 37-cent Greetings, the 33-cent Insects & Spiders, the 39-cent Disney: Romance, the 33-cent Legends of Baseball, the 41-cent Disney: Magic, the 41-cent Pacific Coast Lighthouses, the 37-cent Disney: Celebration, the 44-cent The Simpsons, the 34-cent Baseball Playing Fields, the 37-cent Disney: Friendship, the 32-cent Civil War, the 29-cent Legends of the West, the 32-cent Marilyn Monroe, the 42-cent Disney: Imagination, the 39-cent Advances in Aviation, the 32-cent Bugs Bunny, the 42-cent Frank Sinatra, and the 37-cent Happy New Year.
Here once again we see the vast abyss between the preferences of most mature stamp collectors and the general public.
With a few exceptions - perhaps Wonders of America, the Civil War, and Legends of the West sheetlets - most philatelists would probably choose an entirely different group of stamps from the past two decades.
Generalizations, of course, are risky, but based on anecdotal evidence (conversations over the years, letters to the editor & stamp popularity surveys at LINN's STAMP NEWS, for example), most collectors prefer historical and scientific themes. "The Simpsons" just doesn't cut it.
Furthermore, traditional collectors LOVE finely engraved stamps, which have become increasingly uncommon for U.S. stamps in recent years. (For that matter, many prefer the traditional old-time gum to the current adhesives, but that's the subject for an entirely different blog post!)
I too love the history. And I love fine engraving. I particularly enjoyed (and used on my ordinary mail) last year's Abraham Lincoln sheetlet.
(And I count myself privileged to have met the world's foremost engraver of postage stamps - Czeslaw Slania - in Stockholm, before he died. To this day, stamps from such countries as Sweden, Liechtenstein, and the Czech Republic are noted for their breathtaking engraving, although even these countries don't issue as many engraved stamps as they used to.)
But I guess I'm not nearly as negative about stamps reflecting American popular culture as some others. Then again, I don't find it necessary to collect every single U.S. new issue, so I have less psychologically invested.
For a serious stamp issue, I think it's time for USPS to commemorate recent U.S. interventions abroad. For better or worse, Americans have fought and died in these foreign engagements, not to mention depleting the U.S. Treasury in the process.
And for the non-serious: It's time for a Three Stooges stamp issue. Surley the Stooges have transcended generations in a way that some of the already honored movie stars and cartoon characters have not. I have a feeling a Stooges issue would shoot up quickly on the USPS' all-time list.

When teachers at a Brighton charter school unionized four years ago, the first such move in the state, people took notice.
The launch of a union at the Conservatory Lab Charter School marked a breakthrough for the state chapter of the American Federation of Teachers, a sign that its efforts to unionize the charter schools were making inroads. The state's second-largest teachers union, the federation hailed the union as a "historic organizing victory."

Carrabelle, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/22/2012 -- Universal Life Church World Headquarter Minister and Bishop, the Most Reverend Francis (Frank) Gada was recently recognized by the Biblical Botanical Gardens Society of the USA. Rev Gada has also in addition to hosting a local TV show in the Cape Cod area, recently launched "Awakening Your Spirit" on the Universal Life Church Radio Network - The Church Heard Around The World. Rev Gada had this to say about his new show: "I want to help people to feel comfortable about Religion and to help them find a Spiritual Journey that is best for them." Awakening Your Spirit begins at 7PM est on Thursday Night
From the Biblical Botanical Gardens Society of the USA.....
"The Biblical Botanical Gardens Society of the USA is proud to announce the appointment of the Reverend Doctor Frank M. Gada as its Regional Director and Master Gardener for the States of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. As Regional Director, Dr. Gada will be available to lecture and make media presentations on the topic: Biblical flora.
Dr. Gada will also assume the role of inaugural President of a Biblical Botanical Garden Club now forming in the Cape Cod area. As President, Dr. Gada will be the principal local resource. Gardeners seeking to plant the flora named in the Bible and other ancient texts in the very special climate and conditions peculiar to the region, now have a local, experienced source for sound advice and special materials.
The Biblical Botanical Gardens Society is an institution of gardeners and organizations dedicated to spreading and growing gardens comprised of the plants named in the Bible. The foundations of western civilizations rest in a very large part on these precious few, heirloom plants. The Society holds that very real benefits can be derived from the continued propagation of this human sustaining flora. Appointing Dr. Gada as its Regional Director makes the Society's educational resources - seminars, symposiums, lectures - much more readily available to would be gardeners along with the special materials needed to found and maintain such plantings and gardens and plants. His appointment as clubs President makes his guidance to and advice for biblical gardening clubs directly available.
The reasons behind the Society's appointments are simple. All who know him agree: "Dr. Frank is good with flowers!"
For nearly thirty years, Frank's neighbors, friends and customers have reveled in the stunning floral styles issuing from Frank's fertile mind and able hands. They have delighted at his ongoing professional growth, as he graduated from the major floral design schools of America, Europe, and Asia, bringing back with him ever more beautiful, more meaningful arrangements. Franks floral arrangements add grace to any occasion, elevating them from the mundane to the sublime. See examples of his wonderful works at www.sonnysfloraltrends.com.
Frank's talent has never been limited to the flower vase. His talents also extend to garden layouts and designs and floral landscaping. Those of us who garden know how hard it is to get blooming times and colors just right for the best, prettiest, longest lasting effect. This is second nature to Frank. He plays the floral blooming times, colors, and an aroma the way a concert pianist plays the notes of a concerto. The result: total visual and sensual harmony and ultimate, serene garden beauty.
Frank practices what he preaches. Not satisfied with just arranging flowers and layout out gardens for others, Frank keeps his own, lovely garden set in the challenging climate of Cape Cod. Frank's deep horticultural knowledge allows him to overcome Cape Cod's short growing season and salty soils and air. Those who wander his gardens marvel at the wonders he has worked. Naturally, they have asked his help with their own efforts and he responded unstintingly with his horticultural and how-to knowledge and practical experience. Not satisfied with helping only those who asked, Frank went to the airwaves and for the past dozen years has shared himself with the listeners of C3TV through the TV show Sonny's Floral Trends."
