    OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute) Sedona Community Forum (formerly Lunch and Learn) will host Dieter Lehmann, Sedona business owner in partnership with Cyril Chiosa

    logo_olli3Clarkdale AZ (October 1, 2019) – What do the Sedona Creative Life Center, Steakhouse89, several Jeep and trolley tours, the former U-Haul facility, and the vacant KFC/Taco Bell building on Rt. 89A in West Sedona, as well as the Alcantara Vineyard and the closed Steve Coury car dealership off Rt. 260, have in common?  All these properties and more are now owned by a business partnership headed by Cyril Chiosa and Dieter Lehmann.

    Meet Dieter Lehmann and learn more about how his team might connect those disparate dots when he will be the guest of honor at OLLI’s Sedona Community Forum on Wednesday, October 9, from 12:30 – 1:30 p.m., in room 34 of Yavapai College’s Sedona Center (on Cultural Park Place, across Rt. 89A from Red Rock High School).

    This dynamic duo now has the ability and the facilities to feed, house, transport, entertain, educate, and provide many other services for visitors to our area and for local residents.  How might they integrate these offerings?

    If you judge by how beautifully they have renovated Steakhouse 89, by the new dimension of evening musical entertainment they have introduced there, and by the rare Chain des Rotisseurs Commendation that Dieter has received, you can feel assured they will do it with style and imagination. 

    If you wonder how they will contribute to community life in Sedona, you can infer from their support of the Marine Corps League’s “89 Flags on 89A!”

    Bring your lunch or purchase your lunch at the Sedona Café and join us at 12:30 p.m. when Dieter Lehmann will share his personal history, his current activities, and his future plans—and then he’ll open the floor to attendees for a lively Q&A session.  (Please note that this talk will begin a half-hour earlier than all previous Lunch & Learn speakers.) OLLI’s  Sedona Community Forum is an enjoyable, informative, weekly community event that is free and open to everyone in the community.

    OLLI (Osher Lifelong Learning Institute) Brown Bag Brain Buzz will host Paul Friedman, long time OLLI Facilitator, presenting “Paths to Happiness: Lessons from Other Cultures”

    During the last few decades, we have witnessed a historical first: we are now able to study, and even travel to, all the world´s cultures. In the past, we have thought that the way we were brought up was the only (and certainly the best) way of life available. But today, in the global village, we’re exposed to other cultures and can learn from them. In this session we’ll explore multi-cultural insights into human well-being. Since the U.S. sits at 19th place in the latest UN ranking of happiness levels in 153 nations, we can benefit from inquiring how people in other cultures go about living a fulfilled life. We will sample material gathered for a Fall Term OLLI class on this topic to describe experiences available to each of us in our own everyday life that have no exact equivalent in English, (e.g. pura vida in Costa Rica, wabi sabi in Japan, hwyl in Wales, ubuntu in South Africa, fiero in Italy, feng yun in China, tarab in Egypt, and hygge, lagom, and fika in Scandinavia). We’ll travel the globe picking up wisdom about well-being from widely scattered cultures and applying it to our own lives. 

    Paul Friedman, Ph.D. is a retired professor, world traveler, author, and popular OLLI facilitator with a lifelong interest in how the nature of our consciousness, communication, community and culture influence our lives and can be enriched.  

    Bring your brown bag or purchase lunch at the Snack Bar in Building F at the Verde Valley Campus, located at 601 Black Hills Drive, Clarkdale on Thursday, October 10, to Room M-137, 12:30 – 1:30 and join us at this free lunchtime forum, sponsored by Yavapai College.

    If I Were Curtis Sliwa
    By Tommy Acosta

    One of my guilty little pleasures is imagining what I would do if I was in someone else’s shoes, especially politicians. In this essay I would love to jump into the shoes of Curtis Sliwa, a former New York City vigilante who founded the Guardian Angels and is now running as a Republican for mayor of his city.
