My friend, Judy Gilbert, the hockey legends wife & Humanitarian is Buzz Aldrin friend…she wrote on Facebook

Buzz Aldrin. Made it

To the moon…and back. He told me it took so much more than education, discipline and physical strength. It took years of determination and believing that any goal is possible “but it was still hard to believe when l took my first step onto the moon’s surface.”

Actor Kevin Spacey to Introduce World Peace Orchestra Inaugural Youth
“Play for Peace” Concert at Lincoln Center September 10th
New York, NY • The World Peace Orchestra (WPO) (www.peaceorchestra.org/concert/) is
bringing together more than 100 students from over 50 countries across the globe to perform
in an inaugural classical music concert on September 10, 2013 at Lincoln Center. This sold-out
event will be the only global youth orchestra that combines both classical and ethnic instruments.
WPO is a nonprofit organization that brings together young musical talent from around
the world in its first annual New York City concert to demonstrate how the unifying power of
music can powerfully transcend social and cultural boundaries.
A star-studded evening is planned at Lincoln Center – during the concert, the musicians will be
led by guest Lithuanian conductor Gintaras Rinkevičius and will be joined by world-renowned
violinist Alexander Markov. Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey will also be in attendance
to introduce the orchestra. The celebrity host committee also includes Deepak Chopra,
award-winning singers Tony Orlando, Lee Greenwood and Neil Sedaka, astronaut Buzz
Aldrin and Emmy-winning TV and radio host Rita Cosby.
“Participating in the World Peace Orchestra concert represents diversity and the power of what
we can do together to celebrate what unites us,” Spacey said. “Music is universal and I am
honored to get to introduce these fine young musicians.”
The September concert is the culmination of a month-long program run by WPO that is dedicated
to empowering young people from countries around the world, as there will be young
musicians from Iraq, Libya, Rwanda, Haiti, Kenya, Uganda, Georgia, Mexico, Ethiopia,
Vietnam and more, all spreading their message of peace through music and serving as young
leaders in their own communities. For many of the students, especially those from conflict regions,
the program marks their first trip to the United States.
“Regardless of what country you’re from, regardless of your age, ethnicity, or background,
music plays a role in all our lives. WPO’s primary focus is to stimulate harmony between people
by tapping in to their love of music,” says Scott Noppe-Brandon, Spokesperson and Leadership
Team Member at WPO. “The inaugural concert at Lincoln Center is the launching pad
for WPO to grow and bring unique opportunities to young musicians around the world.”
Kevin Spacey Tony Orlando Rita Cosby Deepak Chopra Neil Sedaka

The concert will feature music from: Beethoven’s “Coriolan Overture,” Leonard Bernstein’s
“West Side Story,” Rimsky-Korsakov’s “Capriccio Espagnol,” Astor Piazzolla’s “Libertango,” Vittorio
Monti’s “Czardas,” Edvard Grieg’s “Anitra’s Dance,” “Hava Nagila,” “Hallelujah,” and
“Saba.” J. MASSENET – Meditation from the Opera “Thais” for violin and orchestra N. PAGANINI
– Caprice No. 24, opus 1 for solo violin
“THE ROCK CONCERTO” – for six string electric violin; rock band; symphony orchestra and
choir – Music by Alexander Markov and James V. Remington

Inauguration Ceremony for Gale Brewer

admin — Wed, 15 Jan 2014 00:05:10 +0000

All are welcome to attend
Two o’clock until five o’clock in the afternoon
Sunday, January 12, 2014
Hammerstein Ballroom
311 West 34th Street (between 8th and 9th Avenues) Manhattan
Gale Brewer Sworn In as Manhattan Borough President
MIDTOWN — Former City Councilwoman Gale Brewer, who for 12 years represented the Upper West Side and won consecutive terms in landslide elections, was sworn in Sunday as Manhattan’s 27th borough president.
Brewer’s inauguration took place before hundreds at the Hammerstein Ballroom, and she used the occasion to announce the appointment of two deputy borough presidents, rather than the typical one.
“I’m breaking tradition today,” she said, after a warm introduction from Mayor Bill de Blasio. “As de Blasio said, I love to do that.”
Brewer introduced Aldrin Rafael Bonilla as the new deputy borough president for community and borough operations. Bonilla previously served as executive director of CUNY in the Heights, which is part of the Hostos Division of Continuing Education and Workforce Development. Brewer also announced that Joseph Garba, who was previously the director of state legislative affairs under Mayor Michael Bloomberg, would serve as the new deputy borough president for policy and budget.
Brewer vowed to work on expanding free wi-fi, creating more high-quality middle school seats, ensuring schools can provide art education and getting neighborhood residents involved in local zoning and development decisions.
“We’re done with the campaign, thank God. And now comes the part that i like best: governing,” Brewer said.
“So If you supported me because of who I am, and what I stood for and accomplished, you will get nothing less from me as borough president. I will continue to have an accessible office, an experienced and dedicated staff, a strong commitment to transparency and accountability, and a dedication to a city government that works from the ground up.”
Prior to her election as borough president, Brewer served on the City Council representing the 6th district, which includes most of the Upper West Side and the northernmost part of Clinton.
Mayor Bill de Blasio introduced Brewer, praising her work in City Council and her commitment to reform, transparency and progressive values.
“From time to time I find the phrase ‘force of nature’ appropriate to define someone, and Gale Brewer rises to that level,” de Blasio said, citing the amount of reading material she brings home each night, the number of interns she takes in, and the ten-page emails she is known for sending.
“People on the Upper West Side have gotten used to the notion that this is what their council members should do, this is what their leaders should do. Well now people all over Manhattan are going to see it,” he said.
De Blasio also noted Brewer’s lack of filter, a statement she proved with a joke about the George Washington Bridge traffic scandal.
“I want you all to know that I plan to use my power as borough president wisely. There is no truth to the rumors that I am closing lanes at the Holland and Lincoln tunnels,” she said.
Brewer will serve a four-year term as borough president, replacing Scott Stringer, the city’s new Comptroller. She concluded her remarks with a call to action.
“Let’s get to work,” she said.
