I am making my way through the Nureyev biography by Julie Kavanaugh. Vera recommended it so highly and I can see why. It was insightful how one of the critics of the book said something like that Kavanaugh writes as if she is a mother who totally loves her child while acknowledging the child has flaws.
http://www.amazon.com/Nureyev-Life-Julie-Kavanagh/dp/0375405135/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1211669456&sr=8-1
From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. The first international ballet superstar, Rudolf Nureyev (1938–1993) made headlines when he defected from Russia in 1961. His onstage partnership with the Royal Ballet's ballerina assoluta Margot Fonteyn received legendary acclaim.
Formerly a Kirov star, trained by the famed ballet teacher Alexander Pushkin and inspired by Nijinsky and Stanislavsky, he shocked and seduced the West with his charismatic stage presence and his passionate, sometimes rough-edged dancing.
British ballet critic Kavanagh (Secret Muses: The Life of Frederick Ashton) captures his phenomenal work ethic, his hunger for new dance experiences (with Jerome Robbins, Martha Graham and Paul Taylor) and his flamboyant life.
Her writing style is both readable and sophisticated, showing Nureyev's wit and generosity alongside his carelessness and cruelty. She dissects ballet arcana like the Bournonville and Vaganova techniques—but doesn't stint on celebrity dish.
Nureyev's affair with the celebrated Danish dancer Erik Bruhn, his desperate need to dance for George Balanchine and his competition with the younger ballet star Mikhail Baryshnikov are detailed, alongside his relationships with Jackie Kennedy, Andy Warhol and Mick Jagger. Kavanagh presents a definitive and moving portrait of one of the 20th century's most hypnotic, ruthless and hedonistic artists.
From Bookmarks Magazine
Julie Kavanagh knows the dance world, and it shows. The London-based journalist and former ballerina previously wrote a prize-winning biography of choreographer Frederick Ashton, and she fills Nureyev: The Life with piercing insights into both the life of her subject and the turbulent world of professional ballet.
Critics loved her riveting storytelling, and though the Christian Science Monitor complained that Kavanagh dwells too long on the dancer’s experiences in the "brutal anonymity of 70s gay culture" and his passing from AIDS, they generally praised her refusal to sugarcoat any aspect of Nureyev’s life and personality.
Overall, Kavanagh offers a compelling portrait of a complicated man in the tone of "a mother who knows her child’s faults all too well and yet looks upon him with affection" (San Francisco Chronicle).

Gratitude, thoughts
Again, I want to thank God and all who help me get through a day.
I am thankful that I survived the Philly conference. Here are some thoughts on the Philly conference. Content management sessions appear to be getting some good coverage. Some items of interest.
- Building your Content Management Skills, Ann Rockley
- Vendor Panel: Successful Content Management, Ann Rockley
It has been several years since I attended or presented at a conference, so I wondered what was new. I'm finding a combination of new and old so far in the program. As expected, the new of the conference involved coverage of new topics and technologies to show what is currently going on in the field. There is also some sameness of years past with the basic format of a keynote speaker, presentations, awards on display, vendor booths, and networking at meals and other events.
Rockley's sessions on content management did not disappoint.
As usual, the displays from award winners and vendors were interesting. Technology consultant Howard Rheingold delivered the keynote address. Rheingold teaches digital journalism at Stanford. At USC-Berkley he teaches something called virtual community and social media. I asked myself how someone gets to teach something like that. Maybe someday I could do this. It is likely that that would be in my dreams or maybe in my next life. Then, again, as I like to tell myself, there is always hope.
A totally new experience for me this year was the awards banquet. I cannot thank enough the people in NEO STC cheering section and people involved overall in the associate fellow nomination process. I truly look forward to cheering on in the future a large number of new associate fellows from NEO STC.

Was he a good choice to give us a keynote? Technology consultant Howard Rheingold delivered the keynote address at the opening session. Rheingold is credited with inventing the term virtual communities. He served as the founding executive editor of Wired magazine’s HotWired, the first commercial Webzine to introduce the Web-based discussion forum and online banner.
He teaches digital journalism at Stanford University and virtual community and social media at the University of California at Berkeley. He has previously taught participatory media and collective action at Berkeley and has also taught at the University of Southern California’s Annenberg School for Communication and the Institute of Creative Technologies at De Montfort University in Leicester, United Kingdom.
Electric Minds, the Web site he founded in 1996, was named one of Time magazine’s “Best Web sites of 1996.” As the author of Tools for Thought (1985), The Virtual Community (1991), and Smart Mobs (2002), Rheingold, a 1968 graduate of Oregon’s Reed College, predicted the future of computers and the Internet.
Smart Mobs, named one of the “big ideas” of 2002 by The New York Times Magazine, explored how the merger of mobile communications, pervasive computing, and the Internet would lead to new forms of collective action.
Rheingold’s weekly newspaper column, “Tomorrow,” was syndicated internationally by King Features, and he has appeared on numerous television and radio programs, including Today; Good Morning America; ABC’s Primetime Live; CNN, CBS, and NBC News; The MacNeil-Lehrer Report; and National Public Radio’s Fresh Air and Marketplace.
He has lectured in a variety of countries as well as at Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Oxford University, and Stanford University.

Rheingold’s recent work examines the ways in which the mobile phone, computers, and wireless Internet are changing the way we conduct our lives—not only how we meet and entertain, but how we govern and conduct business. Rheingold uses stories, case histories, and researched forecasts to present organizations and audiences with the information they need to understand how their lifestyles and businesses will be affected by future trends and technologies.
Author and technology consultant Howard Rheingold will deliver the keynote address at the opening session of the 2008 Technical Communication Summit, to be held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, June 1–4.

Gratitude, vested, press
1. Thank you to God and everyone who helps me get through a day
2. Thank you for this vested update
3. Thank you to Dr. Lisa Rock and the Breast Center
As of today, I have 3.8 years of service and need 5 years to be vested in the company pension plan (2009). For the 401k I need 3 years of service to be vested, which I already am.
So, I see I have been at RA for almost 4 years and get vested in my 401k before I get vested in the pension plan. In August, I should be eligible for 3 weeks of vacation instead of 2 weeks. I am looking forward to the 3 weeks, even if it is for time to do something in the Cleveland area or go to NY. Last year we were really lucky to go to Cancun, Europe, and NYC. Maybe this year it will be more NYC, NJ, Sandusky, Botanical Gardens, the Rain Forest, and Florida.

BIshop and Highland
Drivers who frequently travel through the intersection of Highland and Bishop roads in Highland Heights may want to consider alternate routes.
An $825,000 reconstruction project is scheduled to begin Monday, May 19. It will include lengthened turning lanes in all four directions and new traffic signals, pavement, curbs and sidewalks.
Traffic will be maintained, but officials expect long delays. The project should be finished this fall.
Something on LOGS
HIGHLAND HEIGHTS -- The non-profit groups Love Our Green Space and Friends of Euclid Creek will hold a "Walk in the (Wild) Woods" beginning at 2 p.m. Sunday (April 20) at Highland Heights Community Park, 5905 Wilson Mills Road.
The walk will take place in the more than 30 acres of undeveloped forested land that includes wetland areas, stands of mature trees and several streams that are the headwaters of Euclid Creek.
Barb Holtz, a naturalist and member of FOFC, will guide the walk and identify plants and trees, discuss animal habitats and explain the importance of wetlands in the Euclid Creek tributary system.
Walkers are encouraged to bring their cameras to capture the experience. They should meet at the picnic shelter next to the pool, and should wear boots and be prepared to walk in water and mud.
