WHAT MAKES THE CAROUSEL OF HOPE SO SPECIAL? --Barbara Davis, Chairman t never ceases to amaze me how fortunate we have been with The Carousel of Hope and it is all because of the help of our friends. It is the advice and personal efforts of icons in the music world – David Foster, Clive I Davis and Quincy Jones and legends in the entertainment world – Sidney Poitier, Jay Leno and our producer George Schlatter, who time and again have made each Carousel of Hope so outstanding. We have had the good fortune of first introducing performers like Jennifer Hudson (before she received her Academy Award), Josh Groban early in his magnificent career, Usher at the peak of his international fame and recently Charice, whose overnight 2. success is a phenomenon. This year we were also privileged to have the Jonas Brothers who filled the room with excitement and then pathos when Nick sang about his experience of living with diabetes. The Carousel of Hope has been blessed to have the world’s top performers who have all donated their time to help children with diabetes. We all still remember the incredible performances of Bette Midler, Stevie Wonder, Beyonce, Elton John, Sting, Andrea Bocelli by satellite with Celine Dion on stage at the Hilton, Ricky Martin, Whitney Houston, Faith Hill, Rod Stewart, Neil Diamond, Barry Manilow, Babyface, Placido Domingo, The Bee Gees, B.B King, Jennifer Hudson, Michael Bolton, Usher, Charlotte Church, Katharine McPhee and Paul McCartney who flew in from London to present the award to Stevie Wonder. Many of you will recall the amazing performances at the Carousel Balls in Denver by Frank Sinatra, Lionel Richie, Diana Ross, Sammy Davis, Jr. and Kenny Rogers led by our emcee and producer, Merv Griffin. What makes the Carousel Ball so special? It begins with the advice 3. and efforts of David Foster, Clive Davis, Quincy Jones, Jay Leno, Sidney Poitier, and George Schlatter. Combine that with the world’s best talent in a room filled with friends united in love and hope to help children with diabetes . and you are left with memories of another special Carousel of Hope.. 4. 5. 1.

  • Pioneering Cultural Initiatives by Esalen Centers for Theory
    Esalen’s Half-Century of Pioneering Cultural Initiatives 1962 to 2012 For more information, please contact: Jane Hartford, Director of Development Center for Theory & Research and Special Projects Special Assistant to the Cofounder and Chairman Emeritus Michael Murphy Esalen Institute 1001 Bridgeway #247 Sausalito, CA 94965 415-459-5438 i Preface Most of us know Esalen mainly through public workshops advertised in the catalog. But there is another, usually quieter, Esalen that’s by invitation only: the hundreds of private initiatives sponsored now by Esalen’s Center for Theory and Research (CTR). Though not well publicized, this other Esalen has had a major impact on America and the world at large. From its programs in citizen diplomacy to its pioneering role in holistic health; from physics and philosophy to psychology, education and religion, Esalen has exercised a significant influence on our culture and society. CTR sponsors work in fields that think tanks and universities typically ignore, either because those fields are too controversial, too new, or because they fall between disciplinary silos. These initiatives have included diplomats and political leaders, such as Joseph Montville, the influential pioneer of citizen diplomacy, Jack Matlock and Arthur Hartman, former Ambassadors to the Soviet Union, and Claiborne Pell, former Chairman of the U.S. Senate’s Foreign Relations Committee; eminent Russian cultural leaders Vladimir Pozner, Sergei Kapitsa, and Victor Erofeyev; astronaut Rusty Schweickart; philosophers Jay Ogilvy, Sam

Dedicated to the work of emerging, innovative filmmakers, Good Machine has produced or co-produced films by, among others, Ang Lee, Todd Solondz, Nicole Holofcener, Ed Burns, Cheryl Dunye and Hal Hartley. Beginning with Tui Shou (Pushing Hands) (1992), the first collaboration between Good Machine and director Ang Lee, The Museum of Modern Art presents eight feature films and five shorts from February 13 through 23, 2001 at the Roy and Niuta Titus Theatre 1. "Good Machine proves that audiences do want to be entertained intelligently and engaged substantively," remarks Laurence Kardish, Senior Curator, Department of Film and Video, who organized the series. "Their achievements are reflected in this Tenth Anniversary series and are, in large part, due to Good Machine's collaborations with filmmakers and its respect for the creative process." In addition to producing and co-producing films, Good Machine has gone on to establish an international sales company involved in distributing diverse and unusual works such as Joan Chen's Xiu Xiu: The Sent-Down Girl (1998) and Lars Von Trier's Dancer in the Dark (2000).

  • Ipulse: June 2009
    NEWEST STAR TREK ATTRACTS THE NEW GENERATION June 9, 2009 by Samantha Filed under Entertainment Leave a Comment Lynn Cinema Reviews the 11th Star Trek Movie By MATT FISCHER Staff Writer Star Trek 2009 movie poster In 1966, a phenomenon named Star Trek broadcasted it’s first ground breaking episode on NBC. Forty three years later, the franchise is still going strong with the release of the 11th Star Trek movie (aptly titled Star Trek). The last movie, Star Trek: Nemesis, was released in 2002 and while alright, tanked at the box office and proceeded to close the book on the familiar Next Generation cast. Hollywood insisted that the next film be a reboot of the series as a whole (which meant whole new actors for Captain James T. Kirk and Spock.) J.J. Abrams (of LOST and Alias fame) signed on to direct the movie and here we are nine months later, watching a beautiful film. The film gives the audience an early biography on Kirk and then proceeds to Starfleet Academy. Kirk is assigned to the Enterprise under the guidance of Captain Christopher Pike and First Officer Spock. Everything is fine and dandy until a Romulan from the future, Nero, comes to the past to eliminate Kirk and Spock. He destroys Vulcan and takes Pike hostage. Leaving the Enterprise with Captain Spock and first Office Kirk in charge. (Of course they win they day, but to spoil that for the reading audience would incredibly mean of me!) The new actors portraying favorite characters slip pretty much seamlessly into their roles.

During the Crossing, Seymour will share her insights with guests during two Q&A sessions with Queen Mary 2's Entertainment Director, as well as participate in a screening of one of her many films. In addition to her starring roles on screen, Seymour has fashioned a formidable career as an artist, known for her delicate watercolors and vibrant oil paintings. As a very special part of the voyage, she will conduct painting classes for passengers, which will be available on a first-come, first-served basis for a minimal fee. Guests will also have the opportunity to attend a book-signing session with Seymour during the voyage.
