The West Chester Area Community Chorus (WCACC) announcesSaturday, January 30 as the date for their Annual WinterConcert. The performance will begin at 3 p.m. at the WestChester East High School Auditorium, 450 Ellis Lane in WestChester, PA. The growing choral group now counts over 160members from all over southeastern Pennsylvania and north-ern Delaware. The concert program includes medleys of popsongs (The Mamas and The Papas, Barry Manilow and oth-ers), sacred offerings (the traditional hymn Hark I Hear theHarps Eternal and the beautiful anthem Festival Sanctus), aspiritual number (Let the Saints Get Up and Sing!), and theuplifting Set Me As a Seal Upon Your Heart and Song for theUnsung Hero. A smaller ensemble asks Bill Bailey, Won’t YouPlease Come Home?, and as usual, both the men and womenof the chorus each have a special. Tickets are $5, availablefrom any member ahead of time, but available at the doortoo, space allowing.WCACC is about the joy of song. Highly unusual, if notunique among community choruses, the group does not askfor audition, ability to read music, or any kind of experience.“If a person is interested in singing and takes joy from sing -ing, we welcome them heartily,” says director/founder GeorgeWaldie, “With members from 20-something to 80-something,we enjoy and have fun making music—and that joy is dis-played at our events.” If you have been to a WCACC concert,you know what he’s talking about.

When Wald ieform ed the group,because of the clam-or of his wife Ruth -ann’s students’parents who want -ed the joy of sing -ing that the kidswere getting in herchorus at GarnetValley High, thefamily began anassociation thathas continued for,now, 19 years! Ruth -ann accompanied,George directed inthe beginning, with

less than 30 singers. Word got around and it grew to twicethat. The Garnet Valley Chorus eventually became the WestChester Area Community Chorus. Several generations of Waldiesand other families have “kept it real” and it still welcomesall comers.Another thing about this community group is quite spe-cial. Neither George, his assistant director daughter Sam(Samantha Brown), principal accompanist Janet Thompson,associate accompanist Ellie Watts nor any instrumental orvocal soloist has ever participated for any other reason thanthe joy and privilege of being a WCACC member. The experi-ence of being a WCACCster is fairly described as inspirational.Concert performances are based on a school calendar.There are two concerts, one in January and one in May, andone two hour rehearsal a week. The music performed rangesfrom classical choral works to Broadway show tunes andfolk songs, to spirituals, pop music, and more. The WCCAChas sung the National Anthem for Wilmington Blue Rocks andPhiladelphia Phillies games, and carols for the West ChesterChristmas, and sings special events throughout the Dela -ware Valley area. Membership, which mostly covers the ex -pense of sheet music, is still a steal at $10.For information on tickets or on joining the chorus, [email protected] or visit www.westchester-chorus.org and www.facebook.com/WestChesterChorus.

Experience an all new show when the interna-tionally-acclaimed Beatles concert, “RAIN: A

Tribute to the Beatles,” returns to Philadelphia atthe Merriam Theater February 11 - 14, 2016, aspart of Broadway Philadelphia, presented collab-oratively by The Kimmel Center for the PerformingArts and the Shubert Organization. “RAIN” performs the full range of The Beatles’

discography live onstage, including the most com -plex and challenging songs that The Beatles them -selves recorded in the studio but never performedfor an audience. In addition to the updated setsthat include brand new LED, High-Definition screensand multimedia content, new songs have also beenincluded with the launch of the 2015 Tour. To -gether longer than The Beatles, “RAIN” has masteredevery song, gesture and nuance of the legendaryfoursome, delivering a totally live, note-for-noteperformance that’s as infectious as it is trans-porting. From the early hits to later classics (“IWant To Hold Your Hand,” “Hard Day’s Night,” “Sgt.Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” “Let It Be,”“Come Together,” “Hey Jude” and more), this ador-ing tribute will take you back to a time when all

you needed was love, and a little help from your friends! Like The Beatles, the onstage members of “RAIN” are not only supreme musicians, but electrifying performers in their

own right. For information visit www.raintribute.com.Tickets are on sale to the public now and start at $30. Tickets can be purchased by calling 215-893-1999, visitng www.kim-

melcenter.org, at the Kimmel Center box office, or at the Merriam Theater box office (open during performances only).Group sales are available for groups of 10 or more and can be purchased by calling 215-790-5883.

Legendary songstress and symbol of television’sGolden Age, Peggy King, and the charismatically

swinging All-Star Jazz Trio, will host a CD release partyin conjunction with Peggy King’s first new recordingin 36 years – “Peggy King and The All-Star Jazz Trio:Songs ala King” – on Wednesday evening, January20, at Square on Square restaurant, 1905 ChestnutStreet, beginning at 7:30 p.m.The new CD, featuring 18 memorable tracks from the

Great American Songbook, has been released world-wide via the prestigious Fresh Sound record label, andis already receiving heavy local, regional and nation-al airplay. Copies will be available for purchase. PeggyKing will also be signing autographed photos, therewill be a live performance of songs from the record-ing, and Square’s Stephen Yau will have complimen-tary Pan Asian finger food available throughout theevening. The event is free and open to the public –and on-street parking in Center City is free after 5 p.m.– but space at Square is limited, so reservations arestrongly suggested. To reserve your table, call 215-568-0088. Fans can also look forward to the upcoming Peggy

King/All-Star Jazz Trio performance at Feinstein’s/54Below in New York City on Sat. evening, March 5. Along with Tony Bennett, Peggy King is likely the

only certifiable star of stage, screen, radio, television,recordings, the concert stage and nightclubs perform-ing today. While she virtually symbolized the GoldenAge of television via her three-year stint on comedi-an George Gobel’s television show, “pretty, perkyPeggy King,” as she was known then, worked in filmsand television with every star imaginable, from Frank Sinatra and Mel Torme’ to Sammy Davis, Jr. and Andre Previn.Her credits could fill volumes, and those credits include film roles in “The Bad and the Beautiful” with Kirk Douglas and

Lana Turner, “Zero Hour” with Dana Andrews and Linda Darnell, and guest-starring stints with Steve Allen, Pat Boone,James Garner, Bob Hope, Cole, Ed Sullivan, Garry Moore, Johnny Carson and Mike Douglas, among many others. One ofthe charming high points of the Emmy Award-winning HBO film, “Behind the Candelabra,” was Peggy King’s on-screen ren-dition of “When Liberace Winks at Me,” which she sang on television circa 1956.Of Peggy King today? “At the age of 85, her intonation, interpretive powers, subtle sense of swing and range are better

than they were in 1955,” said Jazz Times.The All-Star Jazz Trio, of Philadelphia, has been entertaining audiences up and down the East Coast – and frequently

beyond – by way of their eclectic repertoire, showmanship and ability to swing the roof off of any venue. In addition to beingan instantly identifiable jazz pianist, Kahn is an educator, archivist and vocalist who also wrote and produced the num-ber one dance record of the late 1970s, “Hot Shot.” Drummer Bruce Klauber, a hard swinger out of the Buddy Rich/GeneKrupa school, is also Krupa’s biographer, a newspaper columnist and one-time Warner Bros. and Hudson Music “Jazz Legends”DVD series producer. Bassist Bruce Kaminsky teaches at several area colleges, is one of the pioneers of World Music, andinvented the widely-used electronic/acoustic hybrid KYDD Bass, which can be heard on this recording.

What Veterinary Ophthalmologists Look for During the ExamDuring the complete ocular exam, veterinary specialists look for problems including red-

ness, squinting, cloudy corneas, retinal disease, early cataracts, and other serious abnor-malities. Early detection and treatment are vital to these working animals.

The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® is an approved veterinary special -ty organization of the American Board of Veterinary Specialties, and is recognized by theAmerican Veterinary Medical Association. Its mission is “to advance the quality of veterinarymedicine through certification of veterinarians who demonstrate excellence as special istsin veterinary ophthalmology.” To become board certified, a candidate must complete a Doctorof Veterinary Medicine degree, a one-year internship, a three-year approved residency, andpass a series of credentials and examinations.

it includes blues, s

oul,

folk, gospel, and jazz. Gwynedd Mercy Universit

What did it mean to our

grandparents? What will it

mean to our grandchildren?

WHAT WAS IT LIKE FOR OUR

ancestors to say goodbye to the shtetl, to set

out to discover new lives for themselves, along

with all of the liberties the free world had to

offer? At the dawn of the enlightenment,

how did our parents adapt their Judaism

to the developments of a modern age?

And what can we learn from their

struggles, in order to connect

more deeply with our own

Jewish identities?

The Friends Free Library at Germantown

Friends School celebrated National Library

Week by asking library visitors (students, em -

ployees, parents and community members) to

share how libraries have changed their lives.

“It has been so much fun to hear all of the

different stories,” says library assistant Kath -

ryn Murphy. People wrote on a dry-erase sign

and shared a “selfie” photo to the nationwide

hashtag campaign #NLW14 #LivesChange.

The stories included a high-school student

recalling memorizing her library card number

before she knew her phone number, a pre school -

er writing that reading books about dinosaurs

makes him feel like he is “living with the dino -

saurs” and a community patron sharing his dream

of one day becoming a librarian. “Dreams are

discovered in libraries and libraries provide a

path for those dreams to come true,” says Murphy.

Kackie St. Clair, head of the Friends Free Library,

says, “Libraries are a place to connect your

knowledge and your curiosity to the worlds be -

yond the library walls; and a much-needed place

for some peace

and quiet.”

At the FFL, the

staff assists com -

munity mem-

bers with com-

puter skills, writ -

ing resumes and

filling out job

applications.

The also get to

know and help every student. “These connections may be small but they are significant in

building a sense of community and belonging,” says Murphy. “Libraries provide endless

resources and support—for FREE! That is a beautiful thing.”

The Crozer-Keystone Health System breast health programswere recently granted a three-year, full-accreditation des-

ignation by the National Accreditation Program for BreastCenters (NAPBC), a program administered by the AmericanCollege of Surgeons. Accreditation by the NAPBC is only given to those centers

that have voluntarily committed to provide the highest levelof quality breast care and that undergo a rigorous evaluationprocess and review of their performance. During the surveyprocess, the center must demonstrate compliance with stan-dards established by the NAPBC for treating women who arediagnosed with the full spectrum of breast disease. The stan-dards include proficiency in the areas of: center leadership,clinical management, research, community outreach, profes -sional education, and quality improvement. A breast centerthat achieves NAPBC accreditation has demonstrated a firmcommitment to offer its patients every significant advantage

in their battle against breast disease.“We are very excited to have achieved a 3-year accredita-

tion again by the NAPBC, which is the highest recognitiongiven,” says Allison Aggon, D.O., CKHS breast surgeon andmedical director of the Center for Breast Health at DCMH.“We work hard to provide the highest quality of care possi-ble to our patients every day, so it is an honor to be recog-nized by this excellent organization. We look forward to con -tinuing to work with the NAPBC to ensure that our patientsreceive the most up-to-date and multidisciplinary standardof care, which we know helps to improve outcomes.” The NAPBC is a consortium of professional organizations

dedicated to the improvement of the quality of care and moni -toring of outcomes of patients with breast disease. This mis-sion is pursued through standard-setting, scientific validation,and patient and professional education. Its board member-ship includes professionals from 20 national organizationsthat reflect the full spectrum of breast care. The American Cancer Society (ACS) estimated that there

would be 232,340 patients diagnosed with invasive breast

cancer in the United States in 2013. In addition, hundreds ofthousands of women who will deal with benign breast dis-ease this year will require medical evaluation for treatmentoptions. “Receiving care at a NAPBC-accredited center ensures that

a patient will have access to comprehensive care by a mul-tidisciplinary team to coordinate the best treatment options,”says Mary Lou Patton, M.D., CKHS breast surgeon and breastprogram leader for Crozer-Chester Medical Center. “Patientsalso benefit from information about ongoing clinical trialsand new treatment options, but most importantly, they canbe assured that they are receiving quality breast care closeto home.” Patton has added qualification in genetics and isa Fellow in the Society of Surgical Oncology.“Achieving NAPBC reaccreditation demonstrates the excep -

tional clinical quality and outcomes that Crozer-Keystone’sprograms provide to patients,” says Marie DeStefano, R.N.,M.S.N., FAAMA, administrative director of Oncology for Crozer-

Keystone Health System. “Our programs’ other recognitions,such as designation as a breast imaging Center of Excel lenceby the American College of Radiology and accreditation bythe American College of Surgeons, also attest to their qual-ity. A deep breadth of services, along with Dr. Allison Aggon’sand Dr. Mary Lou Patton’s leadership, make Crozer and DCMHhighly sought-after destinations by patients with a wide rangeof breast concerns.”To learn more about Crozer-Keystone Health System’s breast

“Once” Returns to PhiladelphiaContinued from front page

MORRIS ARBORETUM’S SUMMER ADVENTURE CAMPContinued from page 8

Emergency medicine physicians at Temple University Hospital have found that an opioidprescribing guideline had an immediate and sustained impact on opioid prescribing

rates for minor conditions and chronic noncancer pain in an acute care setting. The resultsof the study are published in the January 2016 Journal of Emergency Medicine.The United States is in the midst of a crisis regarding the abuse of prescription drug opi-

oids. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. death rate fromprescription opioid overdose now exceeds the combined death rates from heroin andcocaine.Acute care settings are a major source of opioid prescriptions, often for minor conditions

and chronic noncancer pain. Emergency physicians have identified themselves as targetsfor patients who seek opioids for nonmedical purposes. Given the difficulty in striking abalance that provides appropriate analgesia for patients without creating or exacerbatingdrug dependence, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends thesynthesis of pain management guidelines and the creation of clinical decision support tools.Temple University Hospital (TUH) and Temple University Hospital-Episcopal Campus (TUH-

Episcopal) were among those that created a guideline for prescribing opioids in order tomaximize safety and avoid misuse.“The impact of this type of guideline had never been studied in an acute care setting,”

says Daniel del Portal, MD, FAAEM, Assistant Professor of Clinical Emergency Medicine atthe Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, Assistant Director of Clinical Opera -tions at TUH and Jeanes Hospital, and principal investigator of the study. “We hypothesizedthat the rate at which opioids were prescribed in the emergency department for dental, neck/back and chronic pain would decrease after adoption of the guideline. We also hypothe-sized that physicians would support the use of the guideline.”The retrospective observational study compared the rate of opioid prescriptions for dental,

neck/back and chronic noncancer pain before and after adoption of the guideline in January2013. The research team used data from 13,187 patients aged 18 years or older who met thediagnosis criteria and were discharged from the emergency departments at TUH and TUH-Episcopal.The team also administered a survey to the faculty emergency medicine physicians who

were practicing in the two emergency departments.Results showed the prescribing guideline had an immediate and sustained impact in

reducing opioid prescribing rates for all age groups and for each of the three categories ofcomplaints with a high degree of statistical significance. Also, 100% of physicians surveyedsupported implementation of the voluntary guideline. Most (97%) felt the guideline hadfacilitated discussions with patients when opioids were being withheld, and nearly three-quarters of respondents reported encountering less hostility from patients since adoptionof the guideline.“Emergency physicians and other acute care providers can use various tools to promote

the rational prescribing of dangerous opioid medications,” adds Dr. del Portal. “In contrastto electronic prescription drug monitoring programs, which show promise but require sig-nificant infrastructure and regulation (and are as yet unavailable to prescribers in Pennsyl -vania), an easily implemented guideline empowers physicians and protects patients fromthe well documented dangers of opioid misuse.”Other physicians contributing to the study include Dr. Robert M. McNamara, Dr. Megan

E. Healy and Dr. Wayne A. Satz from the Department of Emergency Medicine at the LewisKatz School of Medicine.

Temple Study Finds Opioid Prescribing GuidelineSignificantly Decreases Prescription Rates for Minorand Chronic Complaints in an Acute Care Setting

Benjamin Franklin’s contributions to politics, culture, science and literature are renown,but what many people don’t always realize is that he founded the nation’s first public

hospital and (sadly) knew firsthand the importance of containing disease.Indeed, Dr. Franklin wrote, “In 1736 I lost one of my sons, a fine boy of four years old to the

small pox…I still regret that I had not given him the inoculation.” Afterward, Franklin becamea strong advocate for vaccination.With this legacy in mind, this year’s Birthday Celebration will be held on Friday, January

15 and will focus on public health.“Today, on Benjamin Franklin's 310th birthday, we honor his lasting legacy to American

medicine,” said Donald Smith, chairman of the Ben Franklin Birthday Celebration. “CreatingAmerica's first public hospital here in Philadelphia, Dr. Franklin was a health care visionarywho cared about the wellbeing of all citizens. His ideas and institutions still shape our dailylives, more than three centuries later.”The celebration kicks off with the “Dr. Franklin and Public Health” seminar at 9 a.m. on Friday

at Benjamin Franklin Hall (427 Chestnut Street). Leading experts Dr. Penny Heaton, directorof vaccine development at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; Dr. Stanley Plotkin, devel-oper of the rubella vaccine and professor emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania; andDr. Walter Tsou, of the Center of Public Health Initiatives at the University of Pennsylvaniawill discuss the history of vaccinations from Franklin’s day to our own. The seminar is freeand open to the public. Afterward, a colorful historic-style birthday procession will march through Old City with

a fife and drum corps and banners, beginning at the American Philosophical Society’s LibraryHall (105 S. 5th Street) and landing at Christ Church Burial Ground, where a wreath will beplaced on Franklin’s grave. Ralph Archbold, as Ben Franklin, will be at the grave site.At noon, the Franklin Founders Award will be presented to Dr. Paul A. Offit of Children’s

Hospital of Philadelphia in recognition of his extraordinary work as a scientist and healthadvocate. The award luncheon will be held at the Wyndham Philadelphia Historic DistrictHotel (400 Arch Street). Tickets (from $70 a person) can be purchased at www.franklincele-bration.org/2016tickets/.Finally, the day will conclude with a free screening of “Hilleman: The Story of Saving 8

Million Lives a Year,” a new documentary looking at the life and work of Maurice Hilleman,the inventor of more than 40 vaccines and a pioneer in the field of vaccinology.Events, with the exception of the luncheon, are free.

Music and quite

an accomplished

Chanlan had a

deep passion for

music that was transparent and vibrant. He was involved

in not only solo performances, but chamber groups and

intensive summer camps. His hard work paid off when he

was the youngest soloist chosen to perform on the stage

at the Kimmel Center as a platinum winner of the NBS Golden

Key Competition. In addition to his heart for playing, he was

also dedicated to the scholarship program that supplement-

ed his lesson fees. To show his appreciation, he took initia-

presentations, family crafts and much more—with the grand finale drums and the roar ofthe lion dance and parade. Activities are held in the China Gallery, which houses one of thefinest collections of monumental Chinese art in the country, and throughout the interna-tional galleries of Museum. A special red envelope of surprises awaits every family whoattends the festivities!The celebration, one of Philadelphia’s oldest, is free with Museum admission donation ($15,

general admission; $13, seniors [65+]; $10, children [6-17] and full-time students [with ID];$2 ACCESS Card holders; free to children under 5, members, active U.S. Military, STAMPand PennCard holders).At 11 a.m., Chinese painting instructor Onlei Annie Jung leads a drop-in painting workshop

to teach basic stroke techniques of monkey images. At 2 p.m., she returns for a separateworkshop to explain the seven tans of the tangram, an ancient Chinese puzzle game believedto have been invented in China during the Song Dynasty, and introduced in Europe in theearly 19th century.Guided family tours at 12:30 p.m. and 2:45 p.m. wind through the Museum to find monkeys

and primates, exploring how they were valued in other cultures. Tour stops include theEgypt gallery, the Mexico and Central America gallery, and the “Human Evolution: The First200 Million Years” exhibition.Qin Qian and local musician and instructor Kurt Jung perform modern and traditional

Chinese melodies on the erhu (Chinese two-string fiddle) and the yangchin (Chinese ham-mered dulcimer) at 12:30 p.m. and 2 p.m. Mr. Jung also discusses the role of music in ancientChinese society in these sessions.Students from the Penn Chinese Language Program lead a family storytime at 1 p.m. fea-

turing the adventure book “Journey to the West (Monkey),” a novel published during theMing Dynasty and considered one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature.The tale weaves the historical pilgrimage of a Tang Dynasty Buddhist monk with folk taleelements and imaginative, comical elements.In China, tai chi is categorized as a martial art applied with internal power. Focusing the mind

solely on the movements of the form helps to bring about a state of mental calm and clar-ity.

demonstration at 3 p.m., then treat visitors to the sharp footwork and pulsating drums ofa spectacular Grand Finale Lion Dance to chase away evil and usher in good luck for the year.The Pepper Mill Café joins the festivities by offering a selection of Chinese lunch entrées
