Send material as plain text: no HTML, other coding, or attachments; and write MENDELE PERSONALS in the subject line. 3. Correspond directly with the person who or organization which has posted the notice, *not* with your ever-beleaguered untershames. _______________________________________________________________________ Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:03:08 -0500 From: [email protected] Subject: Arbeter Ring of California celebration concert, Jan. 31 Janet Hadda To Be Honored in Los Angeles Honoring our Heroes, Raising our Voices: Awards Celebration and Concert with Roy Zimmerman Sunday, January 31, 2010.
