NNHS Newsletter - “We call that person who has lost his father, an orphan; and a widower that man who has lost his wife. But that man who has known the immense unhappiness of losing a friend, by what name do we call him? Here every language is silent and holds its peace in impotence.” - Joseph Roux (19 Apr 1834 - Feb 1905) |

11/14/14 - "Tchaikovsky's Waltz of the Flowers":
| Enjoy! Forty students from the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance took a classical approach to the flash mob as they flash waltzed Tchaikovsky's Waltz of the Flowers at the new Sarah Wetsman Davidson Hospital Tower in Jerusalem. Doctors, patients and passers-by joined in the fun. The surprise concert was part of Good Deeds Day, an annual event that originated in Israel in 2007 and now takes place in over 50 countries worldwide. On this day volunteers reach out to the less fortunate and the vulnerable. The Academy students enjoyed the day so much that they have decided to schedule regular concerts at the hospital. Hadassah Medical Organization treats over one million patients annually, without regard to race, religion or national origin. Absolutely Beautiful!!! http://safeshare.tv/w/OXHZUxUXXN
EXCELLENT!
Thank you so much, Jimmy!

PATTERNS (Sorry, not theme related): http://crochetchiq.blogspot.com/2012/10/chiq-slouchy-spiral.html - Mary Kathryn Vaughn's Slouchy Spiral Hat - "This Slouchy Spiral Hat has a unique look when you use multiple colors while working it up. As you follow the crochet instructions you'll start to notice a spiral pattern emerging. The crochet hat is worked side to side instead of top to bottom." http://www.favecrafts.com/Crochet-Hats-Scarves-Gloves/Colorful-Crochet-Hat - Michael Sellick's Colorful Crochet Hat - "This Colorful Crochet Hat can be worn during the winter season or as a fashion statement during the summer season. This free crochet had pattern can be made with any colors you want, but we think the rainbow colors used here look great. The bright colors really pop against the black hat. Colorful crochet hats like this one are perfect to wear in the middle of winter they're an instant pick-me-up for dreary days. " |
