snow n. 1. Frozen
precipitation in the form of translucent ice crystals that fall in soft
white flakes ....
Yep. That's what we had, all right! Thanks,
American Heritage Dictionary. Snow prevented some folks from
attending ...prevented others from arriving until Friday afternoon or
Saturday. Thanks to all those who were able
to make it!

Presentation by Dr. Alexa Still:
"Arnold Jacobs"
Dr. Still explains breathing physiology using a series of diagrams.
Dr. Still studied breathing with renowned tuba player and
breathing physiology expert, the late Arnold Jacobs.
Five or ten minutes later, Hannah Hopkins-Maupin really
regrets being so eager to volunteer to jog in place for one of
Dr. Still's breathing demonstrations.
Dr. Still gets the audience on its feet for a variety of
demonstrations related to breathing.
Dr. Still demonstrates the infamous breathing bag
... More breathing fun.
... Once again, Dr. Still thwarts the audience's plan to
sit back and take notes.
