Social networks like Facebook. And the best thing for business – not everyone is doing it “yet”

Posted by Miyabi Mikami on November 6, 2009 at 10:08am

Facebook’s popularity cannot be denied. Here are some interesting facts about facebook: http://bit.ly/1xApVS *It is the fastest growing social networking site with 300 million users *It’s members, on average, are more highly paid, than other social networking sites *It’s members, on average, are degree qualified *The fastest growing demographic is over 35’s *The average facebook user has 120 friends *How does a Facebook page for business page work?Facebook Business pages see “friends” replaced by “fans” and the number of fans you have, determines the number of walls to which your business has access. You do have to get out and bring fans to your page, because unlike “friends”, fans elect to be part of your network. Every time you post information on your business wall (promotions, PR, specials, tips or hints, business activities and more), these posts turn up on your fans’ walls and all of their friends potentially get to see your business post!

Pro Musica Colorado Chamber Orchestra - "Mostly Mozart" Concert

Posted by Shoshana Fanizza on October 29, 2009 at 11:00am

Pro Musica Colorado Chamber Orchestra performs "Mostly Mozart" Saturday, November 7, 2009, 7:30 pm at Mountain View United Methodist Church at 355 Ponca Place in Boulder with a Pre-Concert Talk at 6:30 pm.CU faculty clarinetist Daniel Silver joins Pro Musica in the sublime Clarinet Concerto by Mozart. Also on the program are Mozart's Symphony No. 27, Jennifer Higdon's Celebration Fanfare, and Musica Celestis by Aaron Kernis.

Clarinet Concerto, K. 622

This is one of Mozart's last completed works and is one of his most sublime. It was written for his friend, Anton Stadler, who was a virtuoso of the clarinet and basset horn. Stadler was especially known for his beautiful playing in the lower register of the clarinet, and Mozart exploits that strength in his concerto.

Symphony No. 27, K. 199

Mozart had written many symphonies before this one was completed at the age of 17. This symphony is a synthesis of everything he had learned on his many travels to musical centers, such as Mannheim, Vienna, and Italy.

Musica Celestis

The composer writes that this work was inspired by the medieval conception of of the angels singing in heaven, praising God without end. He notes that he doesn't particularly believe in angels, but that the image was powerful for him. He had been inspired by listening to medieval music, especially that of Hildegard of Bingen. Writers have likened this work to Barber's Adagio for Strings.

Celebration Fanfare

Jennifer Higdon is on the composition faculty at the Curtis Institution of Music. She is one of America's most frequently performed composers who has been commissioned by many major orchestras. Celebration Fanfare is a jazzy work for string orchestra.

Ticket prices are: $20 for adults, $15 for seniors, $10 for students, and are available online at www.promusicacolorado.org, or by calling 303-776-5355.

Pro Musica Colorado is a professional chamber orchestra with some of Colorado's finest musicians, conducted by Cynthia Katsarelis.

After confirming school was cancelled today (good call BVSD), I checked in on my Big Green Buddies (part of my crazy Halloween Decorations) to see what they thought of the cold snowy weather. They didn't seem too happy ... plus the inflatable Grim Reaper was buried in the snow and could use a hand! ;-)

In his Earth Mother Series Grahame creates an image that is both of the earth and from the earth. The Earth Mother embodies the past, present and the future, symbolizing the cyclical nature of life. Ancient images meld with the pregnant hope of new beginnings and all that the earth gives to support us on our journey. Beyond the Earth Mother is a series of sculptures and drawings that reflect Grahame’s exploration of the idea of the Earth Mother. This exhibition will have both drawings and sculpture in a variety of media that explore the idea of the inter-connectedness of nature and humanity as epitomized by the Earth Mother. Part of the exhibition will include several larger installations titled “Journey Pieces”."My artwork reflects an abiding interest in the Celtic peoples who populated Europe between 800 B.C. and the birth of Christanity. The myths, legends, arts and crafts of the Celts provide me with a springboard for a personal investigation of design and ancient belief shown in the sculptures I create." Grahame AtkinsonGrahame was born in England and studied ceramics to postgraduate level at Loughborough College of Art. He taught for sixteen years at a number of different educational institutions in England, culminating at the Dulwich Foundation. He was a Fulgright teacher in 1987 in Pendleton, South Carolina.

Surviving Breast Cancer

Posted by Chandler Myles on October 22, 2009 at 1:21pm

My wife has a family history of breast cancer and it's struck both sides of her family. Last year my wife discovered that she also has breast cancer and she made the difficult choice to have a prophylactic mastectomy. She didn't want to take any chances. She underwent reconstructive diep flap surgery immediately after her mastectomy and couldn't be happier. There are no more traces of breast cancer and she's recovered her former shape and feels whole again. She is a survivor and I'm proud to have helped her through her journey with breast cancer.
