Jack Kornfield, a clinical psychologist and renowned Vipas-sana teacher, advises us to heal the wounds in our psyches by bringing meditative awareness—“that which knows”—to our painful memories. Simi- larly, Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh urges us to review the past and “observe it deeply” while “standing firmly in the present.” In that ! way our destructive memories can be transformed into something constructive. In either case, the method is first to ground ourselves in the present, and second, to cultivate a generous, clear awareness, in which images from the past, however troubling or enticing, arrive and last for a while but do not become objects of obsessive thought. Like freighted barges observed from a river bank, they in-terest but do not overwhelm us. ______Ben Howard is Emeritus Professor of English at Alfred University and leader of the Falling Leaf Sangha, a Zen practice group in Al- fred.

Janet Marble, Executive Assistant to the Vice-President of Uni- versity Relations, will give a history and tour of the home [Alfred University Fasano Alumni Welcome Center] after a brief Welcome and Meeting. The Welcome Center is at the Intersection of Alfred University and SUNY Alfred, at the stop light. Ladies of the surrounding areas, in Allegany and Steuben Coun- ties, are welcome to come to this function. Hostesses will be Mary Huntington and Amanda Snyder. Officers for the year 2010-2011 are President Linda Butts, Vice- President Mary Huntington, Secretary Sandy McGraw, and Treas- urer Amanda Snyder. Dues for the year are $10.00. Amandine Club, named for Amanda Burdick (Mrs. W. C. Bur- dick) organized a number of ladies in her home (Fasano Alumni Welcome House) for reading and mental improvement. A Reading Club was organized February 1894 with the name “Amandine” (worthy to be loved) chosen to honor Amanda Burdick. In 1936 Amandine united with the Allen Civic Club. The Forceythe-Willson Club, formed in 1909, was united with Allen Civic-Amandine Club in 2000. This club will meet Nov 3, Dec 2, 2010, Feb 3, March 3, and April 3, 2011 in the Parish House of the Alfred Seventh Day Baptist Church. The May 5 meeting will be a luncheon at the newly renovated Belmont Hotel at 1 pm.

Look in any book on the His- tory of Rock and Roll and you will find Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen. The band's founder and leader, George Frayne, took on the stage name Commander Cody as they toured non-stop to a legion of dedicated fans across the globe and back and recorded seven original albums before breaking up in 1977. "Hot Rod Lincoln" was a Top Ten hit and their album, "Live From Deep in the Heart of Texas" was featured in Rolling Stone Magazine as one of the best 100 albums of all time. Other classic Commander Cody songs include "Smoke, Smoke, Smoke (That Ciga- rette)," "Lost in the Ozone", "Rock That Boogie", "Seeds and Stems" and "Too Much Fun." The band's history could cover pages as could a list of the mu- sicians that moved through it's ranks. Today's incarnation consists of Steve Barbuto (drums/vo- cals), Mark Emrick (lead guitar and vocals), Chris "Tiny" Olson (pedal steel), Randy Bramwell (bass) and features the old Com- mander himself behind the piano, leading the musical may- hem and controlled chaos, and sporting his legendary antics and ability to spark up even the toughest crowds. This new edition of the band harks back to the instrumental virtuosity and spontaneity of the original band, and the response from critics and crowds has been overwhelmingly positive. Here’s what others have to say about the band: "There's just something about that sweet spot where traditional country meets burned-out barfly that works every time!!" --VILLAGE RECORDS "...they take being serious THE ALFRED SUN, Thursday, September 30, 2010 13 25 words for $5/insertion Mail to: (10c each additional word) or Box 811, Alfred, NY 14802 e-mail to: 25 words for $15/four weeks CLASSIFIED ADS [email protected] (20c each additional word) PHONE 607-587-8110 or FAX 607-587-8113 or take to 764 Rt 244, Alfred a column of community news WILL REMOVE scrap metal 0.
