One of the most gorgeous among Uttarakhand’s trekking destinations, Har Ki Doon in the Garhwal Himalayas at. is a hanging valley famed for exquisite beauty. The trek route offers a variety of interesting features—forests rich in flora and fauna, a series of quaint villages on the cliffs, the delightful experience of camping by a sprightly mountain river, and vista of snow peaks. The trail is age old and steeped in legends. Some say, it is the same route taken by the Pandavas in the Mahabharata on their ascent to heaven. Swargarohini—the snow peak, the vision of which dominates this trek bears legacy of the mythical stairway to heaven. Among other relics of an interesting past, the Duryodhana Temple in village Osla on this trail deserves a mention.
Har Ki Doon Trek is a favorite in summers and post-monsoon owing to the vibrant greens patched with orchids, rhododendrons, and other blossoms. The trail in most parts running through a deep forest cover, keeps away risks of altitude adaptation marking the trek safe for beginners and young trekkers. On an average, the trek will have 5 hours of hiking per day but thanks to thorough connection with localities, the route is full of simple facilities like little refreshing eateries on the way.

I joined as Executive Director Robert Santelli moderates an exciting panel of music journalists and industry insiders for the Museums first Town Hall Meeting. Looking back on the year in music, the evening will consist of a thought-provoking public discourse on 2009s music scene: What was hot and was not? What are some trends we can expect to see as we enter the next decade? Where is music going? Panelists will include Lorraine Ali (Newsweek, SPIN, Rolling Stone), Phil Gallo (Variety, Daily News), Gail Mitchell (Billboard), Josh Kun (The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Magazine), and Sarah Bennett (Daily Trojan).

Books in comparison:
The Country where Anything is Possible by Elisa Simonelli and
Far from Us by Elena A. Perazzini
Panel moderated by Antonio Monda (NYU)
With the participation of:
Anthony J. Tamburri, CUNY / Calandra Institute
Mario Fratti, playwright
Elisabetta Volpe, researcher, Santa Lucia center in Rome
Luca Lanzillotta, Dickinson College
Both books are about Italians seeking success. As they strive toward professional or simply personal accomplishment, the protagonists refuse to give up and are prepared for a struggle. But while in Elisa Simonelli’s collection they will pursue their goals at home, in Elena A.-Perazzini’s stories they make the decision to leave.
The Country where Anything is Possible offers a positive view of Italy for ambitious Italians. In a work environment where nepotism is endemic, it tells the story of people who have succeeded without the help of a proverbial godfather. At a time when Italy is largely portrayed as a nation of finger-pointing and public disapproval comes a book that illustrates the positive aspects that distinguish this country from the rest of the world. Elisa demonstrates that although it can be difficult to "make it" in Italy, it is not impossible.
Far from Us is a book full of challenges and successes. It explores the disenchantment and the triumphs of Italians who immigrated to America over the course of the last few decades. It doesn’t hold back from the raw truth, the impact of a completely new way of life, and the melancholy that accompanies such bold choices, as well as the complexities of living divided between two cultures. It’s a version of America told through the eyes of those who chose it, and a vision of Italy observed from afar.

Love-Matic Grandpa-slash-Wizard, of course.
You will note that one of the possibilities on the gauge is "Gay," although it likely refers to the former popular definition of gay, "having or showing a merry, lively mood." The opposite of gay in this case would be "shy", which is also represented on the scale.

Secretary Walker moderated an engaging panel discussion on the Future of STEM in Health Care during the STEM Council’s STEM Symposium on May 2 at Delaware State University in Dover. “I see STEM everywhere and in everything,” Dr. Marsha Horton, dean for DSU’s College of Education, Health and Public Policy, told the more than 150 students in the audience. Across the country, there are more than 4.5 million unfilled STEM positions in all fields.
“Most people think of health care in a hospital as doctors or nurses … however, there is a support mechanism that cares for your family and friends,” said Michael Maksmow, vice president and chief information officer for Beebe Healthcare. And information technology is behind much of that support – from keeping the lights and HVAC systems working, to analyzing clinical data, to biomedical engineering.
Secretary Walker, who is a board-certified family physician, told the students that she and Regina Sims Wright, associate dean for diversity at UD’s College of Health Sciences, both participated in FAME, a Delaware nonprofit that prepares and motivates students, especially minorities and girls, to pursue college degrees and careers in STEM. Because of FAME, Secretary Walker said she got a full scholarship to UD to study chemical engineering and spent summers working at Merck. “Chemical engineering is not the easiest way to get to med school,” the Secretary said.
Dean Wright said her PhD is in psychology and she has used that degree to pursue research, including cardiovascular health and cognitive function in older adults. She urged the students to consider STEM-related research and teaching as potential careers. “Diversity is really important,” Secretary Walker added. She said there weren’t enough minority professors for her to look up when she was in college, medical school and graduate school.
Dean Horton said the look and the process of health and allied sciences are changing, and a different skill set will be needed in the next generation. As an example, she asked Dr. Chris Mason to tell the students about research he is doing with Dr. Von Homer on biomechanics and motion analysis and applying it to professional athletes to help reduce injuries. The researchers demonstrated how they are collecting data using sensors that connect to a subject’s legs and feet and that mirror the person’s movements onto a nearby computer.

MODERATED GROUP PERFORMANCE AND TALK
Sadly, due to illness, our friend Fausto Gracia was not able to travel from Mexico to Berlin. We wish him a speedy recovery, and hope that he’ll join us for one of the next two Stammtisch events we are preparing this month.
Don’t fret, tho, we have come up with an amazing replacement program. We invite you to witness a moderated group performance that addresses issues like how performers learn from one another in a non-hierarchical process, how to integrate chance and random elements in performance work, and how to cooperate. Frank Homeyer will guide and moderate a performance by Anja Ibsch, Ilya Noé, Joy Harder, Lan Hungh, Florian Feigl and Jörn J. Burmester. Each performer will bring one object/material, and there will be a fixed time of 50 minutes for the event. We are grateful to Frank for suggesting the project, and to the performers who join us in this outrageously cool line up on such short notice. Afterwards, as we do at Stammtisch, we’ll talk about it.
ARTISTS:

Stormy looking skies! Scattered, moderate-heavy rain showers were experienced a bit earlier. This was at the parking lot library side at EVC in San Jose, CA.
The biggest storm series of the season was heading towards the Bay Area. High winds and heavy rain were expected. The first in the series of storms blew into the Bay Area Wednesday, bringing with it heavy rain, high winds, power outages and flight delays. Meteorologists use the term "atmospheric river" to describe a long, narrow plume piping deep moisture from the tropics into the mid-latitudes. One type of atmospheric river (hereafter, AR) you may have heard of is the "Pineapple Express". If an AR stalls over a particular area, significant flooding can be the result. That being said, they're also important for western water supply considerations. About 30-50% of the average annual precipitation in the West Coast states typically occurs in just a few AR events.
As for California (including my area), this will send a parade of frontal systems and upper-level disturbances into the West Coast through this weekend.
