ON THE BACK END
Teresa shared information about our meals at
Damon's. Each week we have an option of a house salad or the entre prepared
for us that day. At no time is anyone to request to have chicken or
steak added to the salad. All that we are contracted for is the garden
salad. Additionally when you request special salads; the orders for everyone
else get backlogged because the server is also the one that has to prepare
the salad. There is additional cost that is borne by the club when you
place requests for extras too.
The committee assignments were placed
on the tables; it was also proposed to have a "Minute Man" list
for potential speakers available on a short notice if a scheduled speaker
is prevented from coming.
Teresa shared news from the Penn State Rotaract club for the new academic
year. Over 50 persons showed up to an informational session. These were
students that had been involved with Rotary as Interacters in high school.
Todd passed out coins from the PA National Guard to all Rotarians that
helped with the event.
The
Rotary Foundation Dinner is scheduled for November 4, 2006 in Hagerstown,
Maryland. Do not forget to register.
If you have coupon money please get that in. You can still sell those
babies.Coupon sales are still happening. Extras can be picked up from
Tracy Sepich. Sell Sell Sell your coupon books. Paul made
a flier that might help sell
these things which actually sell themselves: 49 coupons for various values
in town! Contact Rotarian Dr. Tracy Sepich to get your coupon
books. Her office is over by Lowes in the old Philatelic building.

| Previous
Week's Speaker: Tom
Taylor on PSU involvement with the Space Program |
First of all, let's get it out of the way, Tom is the brother of Mary
DeArmitt.
Tom spoke on Penn State's involvement with the US space program. He
is the program manager and senior research engineeer at the Applied Research
Lab. {Previously he has worked at the Kennedy Space Center and been involved
with Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, and the Government Space Agency.
He talked about new vehicles being built, new shuttles to explore space.
Many millions of dollars are being spent on space research now.
He talked about Swift,
an unmanned space exporation vehicle that was started in 1999. Through
coordination of observations from several ground-based telescopes and
NASA'S Swift and other satellites, scientists solved the 35-year-old mystery
of the origin of powerful, split-second flashes of light called short
gamma-ray bursts. The flashes are brighter than a billion suns, yet last
only a few milliseconds. They had been too fast for earlier instruments
to catch.

“If
we only listen to those whom we already see eye to eye, we will
never create better understanding, a concept that is at the
core of Rotary.”
-Martin G Molony, District 1160 Governor, Dublin Central, Ireland

Rotarian, January 2006

"Of
the things we think, say or do:
Is
it the TRUTH?
Is
it FAIR to all concerned?
Will
it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will
it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?"
