Yak About Broadway and The Best TV’s to buy 2017 So I had planned an all tech show. Then Sally tells me she is going to take the family to New York to see several Broadway shows. She was looking forward to Sunset Blvd the most with Glenn Close which I saw many years ago. We then realized that we has seen many productions with some of the great leading ladies; Glenn Close, Betty Buckly, Diahanne Carroll, Elaine Paige.

David Yakir Interviews Minter Dial on his documentary, “The Last Ring Home” The Project to Bring the Ring Home The Last Ring Home is the story of Lt Minter Dial’s Annapolis Naval Academy ring, that miraculously made its way home 17 years after he was killed as a POW of the Japanese in WWII. The Last Ring Home is a tribute to Lt Dial, the producer’s grandfather, and all members of the Greatest Generation. It is also a journey of self-discovery, having an impact on the filmmaker, his wider family and many other people in its wake.

The Last “Yak About” Interview with Harlan Kleiman 1940-2016 RIP This past week a great friend and frequent guest of the show, Harlan Kleiman passed away. / When he was first diagnosed with prostate cancer, he came to me and said that he’d like to create a series entitled Harlan on Health / in which he would share health information as a healthcare advocate and also document his condition from diagnosis to cure. Unfortunately the cure didn’t come / as it turns out he had a very aggressive cancer that managed to stay ahead of the best doctors. Harlan spent the bulk of his life in both entertainment and finance. A few years ago he made his first foray into the world of healthcare. HeYak On!

David Yakir Endorses Corry Westbrook for Congress from Florida’s 8th Congressional District I’ve only got a few minutes before my next meeting, but I wanted to get this out. I’ll add more when I get some free time. Its not often they you actually get to sit down and chat with a candidate for Congress.  One that isn’t set on giving you the talking points. Although we only had 20 minutes for the interview, Corry didn’t spend her time communicating the talking points. When the subject was the economy, she took us through a 20 year look at it from an historical perspective. She is one of the most committed people i’ve met (especially on the environment – Indian River Lagoon – People). In addition youYak On!

Janice Broda: Why am I running? To continue excellent management at Indian River Mosquito Control Yak About Mosquito’s – Janice Broda talks Mosquito Control and the Zika VirusBy Janice Broda Modern mosquito control involves much more than truck spraying. The Indian River Mosquito Control District provides science-based mosquito control that protects public health, safeguards the Indian River Lagoon, and budgets for unpredictable emergencies. Like you, the district faces rising costs for fuel and other necessities. The prices of pesticides, contracted flying services, and specialized equipment continue to rise. Annual mosquito control costs are also driven by unpredictable weather and outbreaks of mosquito-transmitted disease. The science-based disease surveillance program at the district is led by a medical entomologist. Since 1978, the district has analyzed mosquito populationsYak On!
