    The Official Newsletter of the San Diego Model Car Club January 2007 . Most of us never give this a second thought, but without a place to meet, our little club wouldn’t exist. The fact that we even know each other and get together once a month is almost totally because we have a place to do it, and what most of us don’t know is that we come under real danger of losing it every single January. For one reason or another, the City Parks and Recreation Dept. changes the rules and criteria on our meeting room every year and as such, one of our members has to jump through hoops and negotiate just to make sure we still have a place to meet for the following year, and that guy is Darryl Gassaway. This latest round of bureaucratic nonsense got me to thinking about Darryl and how important he’s been to our club over the years. Darryl has been with us almost from the beginning and has always held positions of responsibility for just about the same length of time, ranging from newsletter editor to treasurer to probably some other positions I don’t even know about. During the time the club was involved with the Lower Left Coast Model Car Contest, Darryl, along with Dan King, ram-rodded that event every year and although as president, I never approved of the club’s involvement in it, I have to applaud Darryl’s tireless efforts in making that event a success. In addition, Darryl has be come a true ambassador of the model car building hobby, especially as it pertains to the Southern California area.

  • Summer 2007 a Magazine for Alumni and Friends of the Eastman School of Music from the Editor
    SUMMER 2007 A MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI AND FRIENDS OF THE EASTMAN SCHOOL OF MUSIC FROM THE EDITOR “Beautiful problems” When I am putting together the many different items that make up an issue of Eastman Notes, I sometimes ask myself if there is a through-line (or if you prefer a musical term, a Leitmotif) that truly ties them together, and makes the maga- zine something more than an Eastman miscellany. When I listened to the distinguished composer Mario Davidovsky, who vis- ited Eastman this spring as the composition department’s fi rst Howard Hanson Composer-in-Residence, I took copious notes, of course. In going over them be- fore writing my article on the event, I was struck by a scribbled phrase: beauti- ful problems. This was Davidovsky’s own description of his compositions, but he NOTES seemed to be referring to the process and challenge of composing a piece, not the fi nished work. I can easily see why a composer, whose approach to his work Volume 25, Number 2 is both craftsmanlike and intuitive, might see his job in this light. Summer 2007 The phrase stayed with me long after the Davidovsky piece was written (see page 20). I found myself applying it to other events I was writing about for this Editor issue, in which people offer imaginative solutions for some pressing questions David Raymond and problems. Contributing writers Jamal Rossi • At Commencement 2007, two musicians addressed questions of immediate Christopher Seaman concern to young people leaving school, commencing a career, and beginning Contributing photographers to address the challenges of life.

Friendsview Sermons By Arthur 0. Roberts Introduction Most of these messages were delivered at the Friendsview Retirement Community midweek meeting. A few were spoken at the Sunday worship at the Health Center, or used as morning devotions in the dining room. Because of these different venues some duplication of theme and poetry citation occurs. Several of these messages were adapted from earlier sermons preached on various occasions over the past several decades, some of which are included in my book The Sacred Ordinary (Barclay Press, 2006). I feel greatly privileged to have been offered this opportunity for Kingdom ministry at Friendsview Retirement Community, which has been our home since December, 2003. The sermons and talks are arranged by date of ministry.
