We thought it would be fitting to include some music by Bach on the CD along with Dr. Jerry Kracht’s new piece since they effectively bookend the history of Lutheran music over the last 300 years!  Jerry’s piece was written to commemorate and celebrate the 500th year of the Reformation.

As for any environmental concerns this may generate, Parnell seems tempted to roll his eyes. But he doesn’t. He said the ground around the oil pipeline and Prudoe Bay is much cleaner than, say, the parking lot at any local grocery store.

Star clusters, M13, also known as the Hercules Cluster, are visible from Tacoma

Hallam would say, “They’re all available online Steve, I don’t know why you have them in here. And you won't even need this stupid case.” On his classroom space: So these little things that I put on
