His story invites us to marvel at how this poor, self-educated, frontier lawyer transformed himself into a political leader who defended democracy, preserved the nation, and abolished slavery. To best understand Lincoln, we must discuss his remarkable writing and speeches. Professor Louis Masur will provide detailed biographical information and context, and some of the time in this class will be devoted to discussion and analysis. Attendees will receive a packet of writings which they may choose to read before class.

What is less generally recognized are the truly remarkable benefits to the brain’s cognitive functions. Based on extensive research we now know that exercise profoundly benefits virtually all of the complex systems and cognitive functions we depend on to function optimally. Aging individuals who do modest aerobic exercise have better memory and a reduced risk of Alzheimer’s disease and overall dementia. In this Oasis Everywhere webinar, Paul Bendheim MD, the founder of BrainSavers®, professor of clinical neurology at the University of Arizona College of Medicine - Phoenix, and best-selling author of The Brain Training Revolution: A Proven Workout for Healthy Brain Aging, will explore with you the evidence linking exercise to a more resilient brain. Dr. Bendheim will be joined by Angie Moore, BrainSavers’ physical exercise expert in explaining how to begin and build a regular exercise routine. Dr. Gina Touch Mercer, a gero-psychologist and expert in behavioral change will moderate. -

But while everyone has heard of the battle, few people know what actually transpired – and why. This first of two sessions provides the background to the 1815 Campaign, together with an extensive look at the personalities of the leaders who fought. Where possible, the words of the actual participants will form the narrative background as we examine not only the plans and thoughts of the generals, but the impressions of the lower ranks as they fought – and died
