  • National Aviary's 2016 Annual Report
    A Closer Look at Conservation 2016 Annual Report Pittsburgh, PA Dear Friends 2016 has been another milestone year for the National Aviary, and I can’t thank you enough for helping to make that possible! You may have noticed that our Annual Report cover features Valentino, our two-toed sloth. While our name conjures images of free-flying, beautiful birds, we are first and foremost a conservation organization. One of our most important roles is connecting people to the natural world in meaningful ways. This year, Valentino became a high-profile ambassador for conservation. By telling his story, we were able to shine a spotlight on all of the birds of the Rainforest and the threats they are facing. Valentino even connected with a huge national audience when The Ellen DeGeneres Show featured him meeting Violet, a five-year-old cancer survivor. As visitors delight in our exhibits, shows and personal encounters, they don’t always realize the essential work that is going on behind the scenes and in the field. This report gives us a chance to highlight this important work in ecological research, veterinary and husbandry advances, and educational outreach. These initiatives are only possible with your support, and I thank you for being a partner in the critical work of advancing global conservation of birds and their habitats. Sincerely, Cheryl L. Tracy Executive Director On the Cover Our cover photo was taken by Dave DiCello, who was the featured artist for our Wings & Wildlife Art Show in November. Thanks to all of the artists, sponsors, donors and attendees, we raised nearly $50,000 for National Aviary programming during this annual weekend event.

  • Sport/Performance Psychology Resource List for Athletes, Performing Artists and Parents* Whatʼs
    December 2010 Sport/Performance Psychology Resource List For Athletes, Performing Artists And Parents* “Mental discipline and attention control training means learning to play to your strengths and to recognize, correct, and minimize your weaknesses. When you cannot accept your own vulnerability and imperfection, you cannot accept mistakes. [Frustration due to perceived imperfection] builds and you feed on distractions; use minor irritations as excuses; blame others, the competitive condition, or a minor injury [because] it is easier to do that than to accept your own limitations.” (Nideffer, 103-106) The following resource list will introduce you to or enhance your mental training. Some are inspirational reads or movies, some are how-to-guides, and some are technical reads that will help you understand the concepts of sport/performance psychology and mental training. The resources are categorized as easy, moderate, or advanced, depending on the level of material covered and the ease of the read. We’ve also included links for purchasing each book either through Amazon or the author’s individual website. By consulting this resource list, you recognize the need to enhance your (or your child’s) mental training, thereby putting yourself on a path towards signiEicant performance improvement. Enjoy and good luck! Whatʼs “Hot” Now The Talent Code: Greatness isn’t born. It’s grown. Here’s how.

  • EDITORIAL Screenwriters James Schamus, Michael France and John Turman CA 90049 (310) 447-2080 Were Thinking Is Unclear
    screenwritersmonthly.com | Screenwriter’s Monthly Give ‘em some credit! Johnny Depp's performance as Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl is amazing. As film critic after film critic stumbled over Screenwriter’s Monthly can be found themselves to call his performance everything from "original" to at the following fine locations: "eccentric," they forgot one thing: the screenwriters, Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, who did one heck of a job creating Sparrow on paper first. Sure, some critics mentioned the writers when they declared the film "cliché" and attacked it. Since the previous Walt Disney Los Angeles film based on one of its theme park attractions was the unbear- able The Country Bears, Pirates of the Caribbean is surprisingly Above The Fold 370 N. Fairfax Ave. Los Angeles, CA 90036 entertaining. But let’s face it. This wasn't intended to be serious (323) 935-8525 filmmaking. Not much is anymore in Hollywood. Recently the USA Today ran an article asking, basically, “What’s wrong with Hollywood?” Blockbusters are failing because Above The Fold 1257 3rd St. Promenade Santa Monica, CA attendance is down 3.3% from last year. It’s anyone’s guess why 90401 (310) 393-2690 this is happening, and frankly, it doesn’t matter, because next year the industry will be back in full force with the same schlep of Above The Fold 226 N.

  • GO for the GOLD the Iconic Movie Posters of Bill Gold by Val Quarles Made My First Poster in 3Rd Or 4Th Grade
    GO FOR THE GOLD The iconic movie posters of Bill Gold By Val Quarles made my first poster in 3rd or 4th grade. It was for a school clean up drive. It was I a “wanted” poster with a “trash monster” that looked suspiciously like my dad. That was the beginning of a life long pattern of creating and being an admirer of graphic art, posters, and spe- cifically movie posters. A movie poster is graphic art at it’s best, and to my mind, most fun. You aren’t having to help sell insur- ance, or dentistry, or a car wash. You get to be as creative and intriguing as the movie. You are still “selling” but you have a product that is more inher- ently interesting. No one understood this better than graphic designer Bill Gold. Bill Gold was born January 3, 1921 in New York City.
