Because you requested it, we posted Patrick?s presentation and a link to a white paper he mentioned (Digital Disconnect: The Gaps between Government-to-Citizen Online Interactions) on the chapter?s website. http://oregoncapitalprsa.org/resources/past-presentations/ Congratulations go out to Patrick for being selected as the chapter?s first Founder?s Award recipient. He was honored at the June 5 chapter meeting for his contributions to the chapter, including helping the chapter earn its charter and putting together successful events that have helped us create a financial nest egg, which has kept our chapter strong all these years and allowed us to offer low-cost programming and benefits to our members. Most importantly, Patrick has been a good friend and mentor to many communicators in the Salem area for years. His quick wit and honest, but thoughtful advice have helped many of us through the ups and downs of this industry. For these reasons and more, the chapter honored Patrick with the Founder's Award. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This exhibition represents a rare opportunity to view 64 ancient artworks from the area known as the Fertile Crescent. The objects date from approximately 6000 BCE to 500 BCE and draw from the geographic regions of Mesopotamia, Syria and the Levant, Anatolia and Iran. Together, they reveal a wealth of information about the people and cultures that produced them. The exhibition explores several broad themes found in the art of the ancient Near East: gods and goddesses, men and women, and animals both real and supernatural.
