5 Other 'Scandals' That Were Suppose To Destroy Obama & A Political Parody Operetta, Aida at the Detroit Opera House, Camille Mitchell, One Term More
Hello Everyone:
Detroit’s opera season continues with three more performances of
AIDA tonight, tomorrow and a matinee performance on
Sunday, May 19th at:
The Detroit Opera House-
When I’m asked which opera did I like the best during the 2012-2013 opera season; I my response is One Term More, a 6 minute political parody video below.
-
While the 2012 Presidential campaign was a a roller coaster ride. It really was more like a classic political opera with a much happier ending than AIDA.
-
If you are an opera fan you will love One Term More,.a political parody. If you are not an opera fan; you will enjoy this political parody which is both real and funny.
-
Click on the link below. This operetta is sung in English; however, you can choose with or without subtitles. One Term More is based on the theme from Les Miserables.
-
-
No doubt President Obama has had a tough week dealing with the drama from the the GOP. We all know by now the GOP has no intention of giving up their witch hunt.

CITY STORY
WHY BRING LEMONADE DAY TO DETROIT?
It was an easy choice. When Huntington Bank was approached about bringing Lemonade Day to Michigan, we knew it was the right thing to do.
The economic challenges our state has faced in recent years taught us all some valuable lessons, including that we need to be prepared for the future. So we look at Lemonade Day as one of the ways Huntington is investing in Michigan’s future…by preparing our kids for the road ahead with valuable lessons and business acumen, and inspiring them to be the next generation of Michigan leaders.
Huntington signed on as the presenting sponsor of Lemonade Day in 2011, and in that first year 2600 kids participated. In the second year, nearly 5000 kids participated. And we were blown away by their accomplishments! In 2012, those 5000 kids raised nearly one million dollars in revenue, and they gave almost a quarter-million to local charities. In 2013, we hope to have 7500 kids participating.
We hope you’ll join with us in supporting Lemonade Day. We like to say that on Lemonade Day, everyone has a job. Either acting as a mentor to a young entrepreneur, by helping promote Lemonade Day or by supporting one of these businesses by buying lemonade. But there are many other ways to become involved and support the Lemonade Day effort. Check out the “Do Something” tab on this website for ways you can get involved.
Huntington is proud to be the presenting sponsor of Lemonade Day, and even more proud of Michigan’s young citizens. Our kids are showing us that they are ready to take on the future, and they’re doing it one cup of lemonade at a time.

WHAT IS LEMONADE DAY?
Each child that registers receives a backpack with an Entrepreneur Workbook that teaches them the 14 lessons of Lemonade Day like creating budgets, setting profit-making goals, serving customers, repaying investors and giving back to the community. Along the way, they acquire skills in goal-setting, problem solving, and gain self-esteem critical for future success. They keep all the money they make and are encouraged to spend some, save some and share some.
The foremost objective of Lemonade Day is to empower youth to take ownership of their lives and become productive members of society – the business leaders, social advocates, volunteers, and forward thinking citizens of tomorrow. Download the Lemonade Day Detroit flier!

Aida at the Detroit Opera House, Camille Mitchell, Meet the recently crowned Miss Israel 2013 Ethiopian-born Yityish Aynaw, President Obama & President Peres
Hello Everyone:
I came across this news story regarding Yityish Aynaw while searching for the performance dates for the famed opera Aida which opened at The Detroit Opera House on Saturday, May 11, 2013. The fact that Yityish Aynaw is an immigrant from Ethiopia and crowned Miss Israel in February 2013; I found to be not only intriguing but symbolic of the Ethiopian princess Aida.
-
Yityish Aynaw, a former Israeli army officer, has become the first Ethiopian-born Israeli to win the Miss Israel pageant.
-
“It’s important that a member of the Ethiopian community wins the competition for the first time,” she was quoted by Israeli media as telling the judges in response to a question. ”There are many different communities of many different colors in Israel, and it’s important to show that to the world.” Aynaw came to Israel with her family when she was 12.
-
During the competition, Aynaw cited the slain American civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. as one of her heroes. “He fought for justice and equality, and that’s one of the reasons I’m here: I want to show that my community has many beautiful qualities that aren’t always represented in the media,”she said.

AIDA The Detroit Opera House
-
The stars were all aligned on Saturday’s opening night as the Detroit Opera House was transformed into the majesty and mystery of ancient Egypt with dramatic sets by Allen Charles Klein. The triumphal scene is so lavish that it makes Cecil B. DeMille look like a piker. Director Bliss Hebert thinks on a big scale for this grandest of grand operas, and his vision is squarely on target.

American Grown: The story of the White House Kitchen Garden and Gardens across America, Camille Mitchell, Obama Food Orama, Tea Menu: Joining Forces Mother's Day Tea at the White House
Hello Ladies & Gentlemen:
Hope you had an enjoyable
Mother’s Day yesterday. For those of you inquiring about the Tea Menu for the Joining Forces Mother’s Day Tea at the White House last week. It’s listed on the
Obama Food Orama Blog which is a delightful delicious blog about
White House Food Initiatives from
Policy to Pie. -
I was surprised that of the three teas served the White House Garden Tea a herbal blend with chamomile was harvested from the Kitchen Garden at the White House.

Camille Mitchell, First Lady Michelle Obama & special guest Prince Harry host a Military Mother's Day Tea, Flotus Stamp
Hello Everyone:
First Lady Michelle Obama and military mothers had high tea like the British on Thursday.
The afternoon White House affair, hosted by the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden was to recognize the women for Mother’s Day.
Britain’s Prince Harry, who is on a weeklong visit to the U.S. devoted to the wounded victims of war, stopped by to salute them too.
Mrs. Obama thanked the military mothers for their persistence.
“You all never complain, never complain, you just keep moving it along, getting it done, and I hope that you know how much this country appreciates you,” she said.
She also called her mother, Marian Robinson, ”my rock” and thanked her for teaching her patience.
“My mom has taught me most to be a good listener, to be patient, to use common sense,”Mrs. Obama said. “She’s taught me to be open minded.”
Children accompanying their moms slipped into the State Dining Room with the First Lady, Dr. Biden and Prince Harry to gather tulip and rose bouquets, baked vegetable chips and edible dough jewelry to present to their mothers.
The families dined in the East Room on light tea fare, including smoked salmon sandwiches, vegetable spring wraps, corn madeleines, mini cupcakes, bonbons and chamomile tea.
