Newest Casualty (and Recovery) Report:
 Well, last month it was George Weston (Operations) and his head wound.
July proved to be a challenging month for our Merrylin LeBlanc (Operations and Moonwise). It all started Thursday, July 9th - Merrylin had not been feeling well and decided to finally visit her physician. After explaining how she was feeling, and taking some tests, the physician leaned forward and calming stated, "Merrylin, you've had a heart-attack". And with that, an ambulance took Merrylin to the hospital. Within 48-hours, Merrylin was the recepient of a heart stint.
photo credit: Helga Ancona We're so VERY happy to report that Merrylin is back at the Station with her lovely smile - feeling chipper, working hard, performing on-air, and exercising hard! One, two, three, four - touch those toes!
Take good care, Merrylin.

David has been in the FUNd Drive Phone Room, early morning shift, for many of our fund drives.
Our sincere thanks, David.
WHAT'S HAPPENING?
El Otro Lado: The Other Side/The Stories That Connect Us: A project of The Academy for the Love of Learning. Art Installation - June 28th through October 1st. The El Otro Lado project is a collaboratibe public arts project that engages the creative process to illuminate issues of migration, human rights, boundaries, and sense of home. The images and stories in this project represent a group of extraordinary people who live, work, go to school, and dream - here in Santa Fe. For some it has been a crossing from one country to another, for others a path of self-discovery. These art installations are found throughout the city - including Helga Ancona's (jazz etcetera) story found at Bicentennial Pool, Alto Street Park. www.aloveoflearning.org
Felonious Groove Foundation: Bryan Highhill (Operations) performing with the Felonious Groove Foundation (led by Todd Eric Lovato (Campus Connection) - SFCC Media and Public Relations Department) www.fgfband.com
August 8th - El Farol (Canyon Road) - 9:00pm
August 15th - Scalo (Albuquerque) - 9:00pm
August 21st - Launch Pad (Albuquerque) - 9:00pm
Museum of Spanish Colonial Art: Joan Brooks Baker (Board) will be delivering her talk on "The Black Madonna" - August 25th - 5:30pm.
Galerie Esteban: Ruth Weston (George Weston) is now showing her ceramics at the Galerie Esteban - 214 Delgado Street (just off Canyon Road) - 988-1002. Within the first week of showing, the gallery sold several pieces of Ruth's work! Ruth's work is also displayed at the new Convention Center. Congratulations, Ruth! www.ruthweston.com
Ruth states: "I have been doing ceramic sculpture for many years now. My art training includes two years of study in Florence Italy; where I studied art history. In addition to my art training, I have studied ceramic engineering and have been an engineer for 22 years before returning to the arts. My unique background has given me a strong sense of aesthetics as well as a good understanding of my material. I make my own glazes, which gives a unique beauty to my sculpture’s surface, its texture and its color. My work is not mass-produced with editions; each piece is unique. I use stoneware clay which must be fired to a much higher temperature than the soft clays of the ancient artisan, and thus my figures are much more durable. But like the ancient artist, I use simple raw materials to color the clay surface before firing. I have developed my own glazes from raw oxides such as flint, nepholine syenite, and kaolin."
Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Art & Makii Masaru Fine Arts Gallery: (Yes, Tokyo, Japan) (Beanie Kaman - Something Cool) and Michael Freitas Wood will be showing their artwork August 20th through September 1st.

950-Foot-Long Mural
 Pablo Ancona (Funk Terra and Somos Son) working on a section of the 950-foot-long mural along Camino de Jacobo. A group of artists, including children from the Boys and Girls Club and neighbors in the city’s Camino Jacobo housing complex, have been working on the mural every day for about a month and is now complete.
CCA Exhibit - "On Earth as they are in Heaven": Tom Mason-Mancuso will be displaying his artwork at CCA . The show runs from September 4th through October 25th. Opening reception is Friday, September 4th from 5-7pm. Special guest preview is Thursday the September 3rd 5-7pm.
 Tom states, "Teetering between parody and tribute, this exhibition is a collection of newly realized "icons" plucked from our contemporary frame of celebrity references, including politics, art, film and fiction. Drawn to the collage process since adolescence, these works distill together my interest in painting, pattern, silkscreen and original or adapted photography. I use acrylic, latex, enamel, metal foil, lacquer and digitally manipulated photography, on linen on panel." Veilleux Fine Arts and Canyon Road Pottery: Ongoing collections include the photography of Hap Paull (Sentimental Journey).
Santa Fe Farmers' Market: Bob Ross (Gardens, Food, and Santa Fe) broadcasts live from the Market every Saturday morning - 10:00am - 10:30am. Meet your friends, adopt a plant, enjoy being outside, purchase your vegies and say "HAY" to Bob.

Getting ready to teach it in the fall." Watch out for Rhea and her heavy word!

WHADDYA READIN'? We would like to share what you are currently reading - and your recommendations.
 Linda's current read: "Alibi" by Joseph Kanon. "It's late 1945 at the start of this atmospheric historical thriller, and G.I. Adam Miller, officially assigned to ferret out Nazi war criminals in Germany, joins his widowed mother, Grace, who has recently arrived in Venice from New York to resume her life as a wealthy American expatriate. Together, they flow into the social eddies of the upper class, determined to pick up where they left off in 1939. Grace has met an old flame, Gianni Maglione, a distinguished doctor whom Adam suspects of gold-digging."
Adam gets very busy himself!
Helga's reading "Mirrors" by Eduardo Galeano. Sounds very interesting.
 "The acclaimed Uruguayan writer Galeano offers another striking but hard to classify work—except in relation to his own oeuvre: this book being something like a companion piece to Book of Embraces or his three-volume Memory of Fire. In pithy retellings of creation myths and reflections on history, he uses the past to comment on the present: juxtaposing the origin of the Hindu caste system and the untouchable class, whose members were responsible for cleaning up the wreckage of the 2004 tsunami, revealing how the casualties of the invasion of Iraq were not only human but memory itself, embodied by the destruction of priceless artifacts from the birthplace of writing."

 "The Book of Illusions: A Novel" by Paul Auster
"Vermont professor David Zimmer is a broken man. The protagonist of Paul Auster's 10th novel, The Book of Illusions, hits a period in which life seemed to be working aggressively against him. After his wife and sons are killed in an airplane crash, Zimmer becomes an alcoholic recluse, fond of emptying his bottle of sleeping pills into his palm, contemplating his next move. But one night, while watching a television documentary, Zimmer's attention is caught by the silent-film comedian Hector Mann, who had disappeared without a trace in 1929 and who was considered long-dead. Soon, Zimmer begins work on a book about Mann's newly discovered films (copies of which had been sent, anonymously, to film archives around the world). The spirit of Hector Mann keeps David Zimmer alive for a year. When a letter arrives from someone claiming to be Hector Mann's wife, announcing that Mann had read Zimmer's book and would like to meet him, it is as if fate has tossed Zimmer from one hand to the other: from grief and loss to desire and confusion."

 Beautiful sunset above Music on the Hill
Check out these three new babies - tiny house wrens - born approximately mid-July - this photo was taken on July 27. After mom and dad left the area to hunt out food (they are very attentive), Bryan quietly climbed up on a ladder, snapped the photo, and left quickly. "Winkin', Blinkin', and Nod" were fed right after this photo.
Today (July 31st) the babies have flown off. Truly sweet and exciting to watch.
