  • The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen
    THE TWENTY GREATEST MUSIC CONCERTS I'VE EVER SEEN Whew, I'm done. Let me remind everyone how this worked. I would go through my Ipod in that weird Ipod alphabetical order and when I would come upon an artist that I have seen live, I would replay that concert in my head. (BTW, since this segment started I no longer even have an ipod. All my music is on my laptop and phone now.) The number you see at the end of the concert description is the number of times I have seen that artist live. If it was multiple times, I would do my best to describe the one concert that I considered to be their best. If no number appears, it means I only saw that artist once. Mind you, I have seen many artists live that I do not have a song by on my Ipod. That artist is not represented here. So although the final number of concerts I have seen came to 828 concerts (wow, 828!), the number is actually higher. And there are "bar" bands and artists (like LeCompt and Sam Butera, for example) where I have seen them perform hundreds of sets, but I counted those as "one," although I have seen Lecompt in "concert" also. Any show you see with the four stars (****) means they came damn close to being one of the Top Twenty, but they fell just short. So here's the Twenty. Enjoy and thanks so much for all of your input. And don't sue me if I have a date wrong here and there.

  • Summer 2015E Asonvolume 44S Number 2 a Note from the Executive Director
    SSummer 2015E ASONVolume 44S Number 2 A Note from the Executive Director PAUL W. MEYER, The F. Otto Haas Executive Director Flora of Pennsylvania: Taking Plant Science Research to the Next Level otanical and horticultural research were central to the vision of John and Lydia Morris as they planned the future of the institution we now know as the Morris Arboretum of the University Bof Pennsylvania. And, since 1933, Arboretum staff and students have focused on developing information and expertise on the native and naturalized plants of Pennsylvania. This work has resulted in a series of definitive publications including two editions of Plants of Pennsylvania, Trees of Photo: Nick Kelsh Pennsylvania, and most recently, Aquatic Plants of Pennsylvania. In 1980, the Arboretum assumed leadership in developing an electronic database for the Pennsylvania flora, and since then it has continued to build and expand the wealth of information included. Today, this database covers more than 3,000 taxa of plants and includes more than 400,000 records of plant occurrences, each based on a physical herbarium specimen. Information derived from the database informs teachers, students, landscape professionals, and natural lands managers, as well as amateur plant enthusiasts. Each year the database is augmented with new information resulting from extensive field work conducted throughout the Commonwealth. As an outcome of strategic planning, this work will continue, and the Morris Arboretum will build its expertise on Pennsylvania plants and develop recommendations for their protection and conservation. However, while science has moved forward, we currently do not have the laboratory equipment and supplies needed to conduct the tests and experiments which will answer critical questions related to understanding Pennsylvania plants, especially those which are rare, threatened or endangered.

  • What Is Penn Park?
    1 Frequently Asked Questions About Penn Park Q: What is Penn Park? A: Penn Park is 24 acres of contiguous open space that includes athletic and recreational facilities owned and operated by the University of Pennsylvania. This new amenity lies to the east of the Levy Tennis Pavilion, bordered by Walnut Street, AMTRAK’s Northeast Corridor rail line and South Street. Q: What are the athletic facilities in the Park? A: Proceeding south from Walnut Street; the Park contains Ace Adams field and Dunning-Cohen Champions field, both multipurpose NCAA regulation athletic fields; a 470- seat multipurpose stadium that is also an NCAA regulation women’s softball field; and 12 tennis courts, with 200 seat viewing stands. Between these facilities are pathways, elevated bridge connections and open space for passive recreation; 530 trees adorn the landscaped pathways for walking and jogging. The Park is served by a 210-car surface parking lot bordering the north boundary along Lower Walnut Street. In addition, a security station and restrooms reside in the stadium. Q: Is Penn Park just for athletic use? A: Penn Park integrates athletic venues and park like spaces. It has two acres of open spaces that are agile in use and not specified for athletic use. They are: the South Lawn, an open space between Ace Adams Field and the multipurpose stadium; the Picnic Grove - an open space nestled between the Dunning-Cohen Champions Field and the multipurpose stadium and the South Green, a grass recreation field south of the Hamlin Tennis Center. All easily accessed from the West by the Paley Bridge.

  • IMPACT REPORT a Message from Our President/CEO
    2018 IMPACT REPORT A Message From Our President/CEO If those close to Ed Snider were asked to name his most admirable qualities, it’s doubtful that patience would make the list. That’s not to say Ed didn’t put a lot of thought into what he did. It’s just that he believed sooner or later (and for Ed, it was most often sooner) the time comes to put an idea to the test—and if necessary—refine it on the fly. From our inception in 2005, Ed encouraged us to think boldly. If we saw a need or an opportunity (Ed typically thought these were two sides of the same coin), he urged us to take action. And—while we’ve grown in ways that may have surprised even Ed, we’re still inspired by his healthy restlessness.
