Thunderdome Wednesday

It's the last day of September and COP:24/7 is still putting it all out there as the fall leaves prepare to descend all around us. Come on Arkansas it's more of what you are looking for in news, updates, commentary, links and viewpoints. Let's go!...

Teaching Clinton: Even though my schedule gets scattered at times, I love finding time for "teachable moments," where ever I can discover them. The Clinton Library Lectures are a wonderful and FREE diversion for opening your mind and filling it with some food for thought. If you've never had a chance to do so, then I certainly encourage you by all means to get out the house and check out the fascinating array of speakers/presenters that they offer. Can't shake that nesting thing, then you can access the lectures on the Internet via their website, http://www.clintonschoolspeakers.com/ If given the chance, I hope to engage Mr. G. in some stimulating conversation. He's coming next week to address, Forty Years After Stonewall: Which way the movement for equality? Featuring potential Democratic candidate in Arizona’s upcoming gubernatorial election, Neil Giuliano. Mr. Giuliano is the former four-term Republican mayor of Tempe, Ariz., and past president of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD). As Mayor of Tempe, Giuliano was among the nation’s most visible openly gay elected officials. Before becoming mayor, he was a 25-year senior administrator at Arizona State University where he directed student leadership development, alumni relations, federal government relations and community relations.
When: Tuesday, October 6, 2009 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. – Lecture
Where: Clinton School of Public Service Sturgis Hall
