William Emboden Book Release and Signing Party


Many of you know William Emboden. It would please him greatly if you would honor him by attending this event. It's at Wacko and should be a very good time. You'll see lots of your neighbors there and be able to shake William's hand!

Location: La Luz de Jesus Gallery, 4633 Hollywood Blvd., 90027
(Located in the back of Wacko / Soap Plant: The 2nd Happiest Place on Earth)

March 20th, 2016 from 4 - 7 p.m.

The Artist William Emboden ph.D.,F.L.S. has published seven books, coauthored two others, and is the sole author of two hundred and fifty articles. He has served as professor of biology in two California universities. His five year Presidential Appointment at Harvard University and lectureships at UCLA and Oxford University are a part of a distinguished academic career during which he was given the Outstanding Professor award. Emboden's foray into art began with his early, meticulous, botanical drawings. His talent led him to create by employing a variety of media. His studies with two leading European artists - an Italian and a German - his appreciation of ancient scripts and global museum visits opened his mind to a wide concept of art and artistic methods. His expansive interests and artistic techniques have culminated in internationally acclaimed art exhibitions. Privately collected, he is enjoying his quiet celebrity. This book explores and touches on his many endeavors. It is the first work to treat Emboden's artistic talents as a true marriage of poetry and science. This book is a revelation of the great diversity of his art and the new language with which he creates. 


The ARTIST and Your neighbor, William Emboden Ph.D., F.L.S.

Beachwood Trees Infected
 

Hello Neighbors,

Has anyone else living along the power lines (running up North Beachwood Drive where it is divided from Hollyridge) experienced the death of a tree with no apparent cause? I'm not talking about the Pine Beetle and mine is not a Pine tree.  

One of our 50' tall 30 plus year old trees has died and today our licensed arborist informed us that it must immediately be cut down in order to prevent the possible spread to other nearby trees!

I'm writing this because, in his professional opinion, when the City did its recent powerline trimming a month ago, they probably did NOT sterilize their trimming equipment between trees or property lines and therefore caused contamination along the ridge line trees!

More homes than our home would, in my mind, constitute a Class Action Lawsuit. 

Loss is catastrophic as well as the thousands of dollars to remove and mitigate this loss.

Thank you for publishing this in your next email blast to see if there are others with this same problem.

Very best,

Scott Thaler & Stephanie Austin-Thaler
N Beachwood Drive.

If you want to discuss your tree issues with Scott, send email to scottthaler@mac.com

Beachwood Cafe    

 



Why not wander into into the Cafe and have a meal and conversation with any one of the many neighbors you will run into? This IS family! 

In days gone by, most neighbors would meet spontaneously in the local cafe and visit about all manner of neighborhood issues. It looks like those days are here again! How many times have you found yourself meeting with a friend at the Cafe? Have coffee in the morning. Breakfast of lunch before your stroll through the neighborhood. Have dinner and a glass of wine at night. We're so lucky to have our Cafe - right in the heart of Beachwood Canyon!
