We just go through life doing your life. Their actions will echo throughout eternity. things that we have no idea why we do what we do. We can take what we are doing through our chorus and we can leave a legacy for those following us. On our journey here on earth, I believe we all want to know why we’re here. We crave purpose. For many of us, we try to make sense of who we are. We’re trying to find ourselves. As we mature, we try and find a way to make things work in our fa- vor. If we’re going to act on something, we want to know why we should and we hope to gauge the outcome. Are we acting in our own self-interest? Are we do- ing things for others? Are we searching for an- swers to the questions of why we do, what we do, as well as who we do it for? The greater under- standing we have for these, the more likely we are to find peace and balance in our lives. By no means am I suggesting that life is one big game of figuring out all the answers and mysteries around us. That’s impossible. But I believe every- one wants to find their purpose — their mission. I use to fear growing older. I truly did. But I’ve found that, as I get older, life continues to reveal greater wisdom and beauty the more I seek to find what life holds.

  • A Band Together. but Who Knew We'd Find As Durable an Application Of
    o R M D EVERY MUSICIAN KNOWS IT’s THE RHYTHM SECTION THAT HOLDS a band together. But who knew we’d find as durable an application of that maxim as the one exemplified by the history of Fleetwood Mac? & Over the last thirty years, Fleetwood Mac has comprised fifteen musicians shuffled through six major lineups, resulting in endless tin- kerings with tone and genre. Yet the two members to survive it all rarely write tunes and never front the recordings. They’re the beat- keepers - drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John Me Vie. The fact that a rhythm section could sustain a band through thirty years seems all the more amazing considering the traumatic histories of the band’s shifting array o f stage-front stars. Together, their personal lives have given rock one of its most elaborate and juicy plotlines.

  • EMARI Regional Director's News
    Volume 13, Issue 2 February 28, 2015 EMARI Regional Director’s News By Calvin Goldsmith Well Folks, we asked for a little more snow, and we got it. Careful what you ask for I guess! But the skiing is superb, no one can argue with that. I’m guessing the general public is having a harder time with it than we are though, as some areas, including some in EMARI, are reporting significant reductions in skier visits in spite of the amazing snow. Too much of a good thing I expect, especially for those people trying to keep their flatter roofs intact, or their ice dams under control. The OEC Senior Test was conducted at Nashoba Valley in early January. Nick Rash- er and his crew of OEC Trainer/Evaluators (TE) ran a smooth, well-organized exam that resulted in all EMARI candidates passing. Congratulations to all who stepped up and got it done.

Many thanks also go to all of the Club members who made the holidays so joyous – from decorating the House and Club Christmas tree, to caroling in the season with a Christmas Party feast, bringing in Santa for the Children’s Party and tossing the Club’s ever wonderful New Year’s Party. It is the dedication and spirit of the members that makes this place so special. continued on Page 3...

  • Carol Coulter and Dave Walker – Interview Conducted at Heritage Homestead Goat Dairy In
    Carol Coulter and Dave Walker – Interview conducted at Heritage Homestead Goat Dairy in Crumpler, NC by Willard Watson. Q1 – Who are you, When and where were you born? My name is Carol Coulter and I was born in 1956 in Newark, New Jersey. My name is Dave Walker and I was born in 1988 in Burlington, North Carolina. Q2 – What did your parents do for a living? Did you contribute to the family income or help parents in their work in any way? CC - So my mom was a stay at home mom until we all left the house and then she just worked part time at Sears. My dad worked for AT&T in NYC so we liked to go to work and help and get telephone wire, but no we couldn’t really help him. I started working when I was 14, pretty much then it was like if I wanted jeans, or if I wanted to eat out, or wanted to go to the movies, then I would just pay for things myself. My dad was super big into investing and saving so we had a lot of education about that. So bank accounts, and you know talking about how to invest money, and how to save, and how to get what we wanted. DW – My dad was in the furniture industry in the Piedmont and he made furniture, he sold furniture, he sold hardware that goes on furniture, he sold lumber, imported lumber from Brazil and Africa and sold that, so I kinda grew up in the furniture industry.

  • Transcript of Interview with Seng Luangrath Asian American Voices in the Making of Washington, D.C.’S Cultural Landscape DC Oral History Collaborative
    1 Transcript of Interview with Seng Luangrath Asian American Voices in the Making of Washington, D.C.’s Cultural Landscape DC Oral History Collaborative Narrator: Seng Luangrath Date of Interview: September 25, 2018 Location: Thip Khao (3462 14th St NW, Washington, DC 20010) Interviewer: Crystal HyunJung Rie Audio Specialist: Dave Walker Biographical Information: Seng was born in Vientiane, Laos on 06/02/1969. As a child, she learned to cook Lao food by helping her grandmother preparing meals for the family. At the age of 12, she escaped Laos with her mother and some of her siblings. Her family lived in three different refugee camps: two in northern Thailand and one in the Philippines. While she was living in a refugee camp in Nakhon Phanom, she learned to cook various Lao regional cuisines. Her family first arrived in Berkeley, California where she spent her teenage years and got her education in finance. After she got married in 1998, she moved to northern Virginia following her husband. She worked as a bank teller and accountant while her husband was working in manufacturing, restaurant, and flooring business. After their construction business for military housing did not work out, they took over a Thai restaurant, Bangkok Golden (now Padaek) in Seven Corners. She originally served Thai and had secret Lao dishes, but she was able to serve both cuisines after getting a positive review from a Washington Post food critic. With encouragement from her customers and D.C. chef community, she later opened a Lao restaurant, Thip Khao, in D.C. with her son, Bobby Pradachith.

  • Interagency Conference Call Meeting Notes – 08/13/2020 by Dave Walker
    Interagency Conference Call Meeting Notes – 08/13/2020 by Dave Walker Roll Call Leah Sirmin, FTA; Leigh Levine, FHWA; Matt Waitkins & Gregg Lantos, NRPC; Eric Rackauskas, EPA; Colin Lentz, SRPC; J.B. Mack, SWRPC; Katie Lamb, NCC; Meghan Butts, UVLSRPC; Susan Slack, LRPC; Nate Miller & Carl Eppich, SNHPC; William Rose, Lucy St. John, Linda Dusenberry, and Glenn Davison, Fred Butler, Bill Watson, NHDOT; Chris Skoglund, NHDES; Dave Walker, RPC August TIP Minor Revision No questions received via email prior to the meeting. Given the late notification of changes to the minor, William Rose asked if there were any follow up questions on those and there were none. Bill Watson discussed the Keene TAP Project included in the most recent revision to the minor (Project 40439 on Page 9) and the unique circumstances involved. The project is managed by the city and they are eager to advertise and would like to bundle some additional paving work adjacent to the project for cost/time savings of letting just one contract. The TAP project is increasing in cost by $60,000 but the adjacent paving work would add another $400,000 in Non-Par funding. The project is not currently included in the TAP programmatic in STIP as it includes non-par funds. The change in the federal funding is well within the thresholds of a minor revision but the non-par funding complicates the matter. If the funding change was all federal it would require a full amendment but the revision procedures do not directly address Non-Par funds. NHDOT asked if there is any concern in continuing to consider this a minor revision to facilitate the project moving forward quickly.
