  • DNI Blair Addresses the ODNI Fifth Year Anniversary Celebration
    Office of the Director of National Intelligence Fifth Year Anniversary Celebration ODNI Headquarters McLean, Virginia April 21, 2010 Video of this event is available online at www.dni.gov/video. LTG JOHN F. KIMMONS, USA (Director of the Intelligence Staff): Okay, if you’d give me your attention. Ambassador Negroponte, it’s great to have you here with us – our first Director of National Intelligence, thanks for coming. In a few minutes, Director Blair and the intelligence agency and element leaders that make up our Intelligence Community will join us onstage. They collectively represent America’s commitment to information dominance and success in an increasingly complex and, as you know, rapidly changing world that’s full of opportunity but also full of serious threats. The efforts of our Intelligence Community are the principal way that the nation manages the serious risks associated with world leadership. It keeps us from shooting behind the duck, frankly, with regard to effective warning, support to operations, the formulation of wise policy. ODNI, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, plays a unique role within the Intelligence Community to make that possible – through a sharp focus on the issues, problems and areas that would, frankly, otherwise remain undone. That’s a critically important task and a critically important responsibility. Today, we celebrate five years of ODNI leadership in that regard, and reflect on the work that still lies in front of us. Before the DNI and the directors come out, I just want to tell you all thanks for all you do every day for the ODNI, for our Intelligence Community, and for this great nation.

Men tend to stumble over pebbles, never over mountains." - Marilyn French Wednesday, December 4, 2019 Printable Copy or Audio Version Morning Summary: Stock bulls are hoping they can stop the recent bleeding as they try to best navigate the latest headlines surrounding U.S. and China trade negotiations. The December 15th tariffs seem to be the line drawn in the sand. With only eight trading days remaining ahead of this major headline, many bulls are thinking the safer play might be simply banking some profits ahead of the uncertainty. Bottom-line, trade negotiations remain a major wild-card. Keep in mind, on the year Apple stock is up +64%; Facebook up +51%; Microsoft up +47%; Google up +29%; Amazon up +17%. There are certainly some profits to be banked! Turning to more traditional economic data, today's ADP Employment Report will give investors a preview of what Friday's November Employment Report might deliver. The consensus is calling for +156,000 in new jobs created, up from +125,000 for ADP's estimate in October and +131,000 from the government's October data. Another solid month of employment will go a long way toward easing lingering concerns about the U.S.

The Merle Pledge is named after legendary feminist, activist, author and UQ academic Adjunct Associate Professor Merle Thornton AM, who received an Honorary Doctor of Letters in November this year. Merle – alongside friend Rosalie Bognor – famously chained herself to the bar at the Regatta Hotel in 1965 to protest against women not being allowed to be customers at public bars in Queensland. The protest is considered a pivotal moment in Australian women’s liberation movement. CONTACT 2020 EDITION CONTACT The Merle Pledge requires pledgers to request gender equity as a condition of their participation on or attendance at any conference, panel, or event.

  • Flutists' Family Tree : in Search of the American Flute School / by Demetra
    FLUTISTS’ FAMILY TREE: IN SEARCH OF THE AMERICAN FLUTE SCHOOL DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Demetra Baferos Fair, M.M. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Professor Katherine Borst Jones, Adviser Approved by Professor Lois Rosow Professor Christopher Weait Adviser School of Music Copyright by Demetra Baferos Fair 2003 ABSTRACT For decades, American flutists have sought to identify specific traits that define their playing as a whole. While the “French School” has been characterized by a preoccupation with tone, a standard repertoire, and set of teaching materials written by Paris Conservatoire professors, no such definition can yet be set forth for the “American School.” This document provides a clear starting point for research into the what, where, why, and how of the “American Flute School” by first identifying who is associated with that school. By tracing the lineage of transverse flute playing from teacher to student through the past 300 years, we may identify orchestral flutist, soloist, and teacher, Georges Barrère, as a primary influence upon American flute playing. Barrère and his students – and his students’ students – have taught approximately 91% of all living flutists in the United States today. Of that vast number, approximately 87% can trace their heritage (through one or more of their teachers) to Barrère student William Kincaid, renowned flutist of the Philadelphia Orchestra and pedagogue at the Curtis Institute of Music.
