07/06/11 Stephanie Seymour calls cops in July 4 blowout

It seems former supermodel Stefanie Seymour’s family ended their Independence Day festivities with a different kind of fireworks.

On July 4, Seymour called police after a dispute with her 18-year-old son, Peter Brant Jr.

When police responded, they were told Seymour and her son had argued because “the son was going to visit with the mom, and the mom canceled.”

Greenwich police characterized the dispute, which Seymour’s husband, Peter Brant Sr., witnessed, as “all civil in nature,” according to the article.

Last year Seymour and Brant ended a bitter divorce battle with a surprise decision to withdraw their divorce action in state Superior Court in Middletown.

07/06/11 Town Of Greenwich Press Release

STEVE D’AGOSTINO TO PERFORM AT ROGER SHERMAN BALDWIN PARK

The Department of Parks and Recreation announces that Steve D’Agostino will be performing at Roger Sherman Baldwin Park on Wednesday, July 20 from 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM. The rain date will be on Thursday, July 21.

Steve D’Agostino has been performing for more than 20 years the songs from The Great American Songbook with an emphasis on the era from Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Bobby Darin and Tony Bennett. Steve began his musical training quite young. At the age of 8 he studied guitar and jazz guitar with Tony Perone and Sal Salvador. By the age of 14 Steve was playing guitar with the University of Bridgeport Big Band called Collage under the direction of Gary Riggerio.

Singing began at the age of 16 with his first band called Finesse back in the early 80’s where Steve transitioned from playing guitar to vocalists. Steve’s smooth phrasing on ballads and swinging style has taken him from coast to coast performing in Las Vegas at the Paris Casino Hotel to Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Ct.

Steve maintains the tradition of this music today adding his own flair without impersonating any of the great artists that came before him. Many say that he sounds like a cross between Sinatra and Darin.

Now is your chance to see this great performer in your own backyard in Greenwich.

Bring your family, a blanket, and a picnic dinner and enjoy a wonderful night of music under the stars.

For weather cancelation information please call 203-618-7650 after 4pm.

Roger Sherman Baldwin Park is located on Arch St. Next to the Island Beach Ferry Dock.

For more information please visit our website at www.greenwichct.org, or call 203-618-7649.

Other Wednesday night performances are:

July 27 – Gunsmoke - Country

August 3 – Octopuses Garden – Beatles tribute

August 10 – The Bearcats - Jazz

06/29/11 Senior VP Of Hearst Newspapers Lincoln Millstein: Greenwich Magazine founder attacks ‘lack of good governance’ of school board

Jack Moffly, founder of Greenwich Magazine, is not the sort given to hysteria and overreaction. That is why his column in the July issue which just hit the newsstand is a must read if you are a Greenwich resident concerned about the state of our schools.

It demonstrates that core Greenwich insiders are not about to keel over and be manipulated by the Nixonian PR express of the current BOE chairman and his PTA sycophants.

I am generally not in the business of promoting competitors. Since Hearst Newspapers does compete with Greenwich Magazine for advertising dollars, I suppose you could consider us competitors. Nonetheless, I urge you to go to your local newsstand, pay the five bucks, buy the latest Greenwich Magazine and turn to Page 25. I would have linked to the article, but Greenwich Magazine doesn’t post their articles online.

The column demonstrates what is happening in Greenwich given the test of time and sober analysis by intelligent people since the sudden resignation by Sid Freund and the campaign by BOE chairman Steve Anderson to deflect the embarrassment of his guy quitting halfway through his contract and to turn the event into an opportunity to attack his detractors.....

06/28/11 Grandfather pens letters on leading life of meaning, purpose

Press Release

Grandfather pens letters on leading life of meaning, purpose

George A. Goens conveys to his grandchildren the importance of finding wisdom and living with integrity in "Letters on the Promise of Living,"

Litchfield, CT (MMD Newswire) June 28, 2011 -- "Letters on the Promise of Living" (ISBN 1453792759) by George A. Goens aims to convey a grandfather's imperfect and personal voyage in trying to live a principled and purposeful life. While the letters are written to his grandchildren in the hope that they will make wise decisions and live with noble purpose and meaning, they apply to a wider audience.

"We want our children and grandchildren to lead happy and fulfilling lives - filled with wisdom and meaning. In the past, wisdom was passed from generation to generation from the elders: grandfathers, grandmothers and others. In today's mobile society, passing wisdom to the next generation is more difficult. A good and rewarding life just doesn't happen," Goens says. He believes it is the result of reflection, strong relationships, connections with other generations and an understanding of the wisdom of the ages.

The letters are based around the great philosophical question the author feels we all face in our lives: what are truth, beauty, justice, liberty, equality and goodness? In addition, Goens addresses happiness, courage, sadness, leadership and other topics.

The author says the research base for this book is writings on philosophy, history, quantum physics, education and spirituality. The knowledge base comes from research and experience as an educator, parent and grandparent.

Inspired by a quote from Socrates, "An unexamined life is not worth living," Goens hopes his collection will help readers explore their own lives.

"Letters on the Promise of Living" is available for sale online at Amazon.com and other channels

About the Author:
George Goens, senior partner with the leadership firm of Goens/Esparo, LLC, works with public- and private-sector organizations in leadership development, executive searches, program planning and accountability. A former schools superintendent, he has more than 35 years of teaching leaders about ethical and principled leadership, designing schools for urban youth that focus on values and instructing doctoral students in ethical leadership. Goens has written four books and published more than 55 articles on education, ethical leadership, change and reform.

06/26/11 Senior VP Of Hearst Newspapers Lincoln Millstein: Wall Street Journal says ‘Greenwich Faces Class Struggles’

Greenwich residents are accustomed to the collateral publicity associated with its notoriety. It’s a trade-off we make for the privilege of living in the Connecticut waterfront town closest to New York City, and yet pay an inordinately low property tax.

But it’s one thing to see an occasional headline about a celebrity divorce or a hedge fund felon or the sale of a Back Country mansion. It’s quite another to see our town’s declining schools laid out in the Wall Street Journal.

But there it was Saturday – a WSJ article calling out how we are failing our children. It brings great shame to a town that has allowed a systematic dismantling of what was one of the great public school systems in the nation – right up there with New Trier in North Chicago and Montgomery County in the Washington, D.C. suburbs.

Two days before the WSJ article, the town’s top “educator” was telling GHS grads not to pay attention to test scores, saying that only the media obsessed over statistics and test scores.....

06/19/11 Senior VP Of Hearst Newspapers Lincoln Millstein: NY Paper Mocks Greenwich Schools For Promoting Retired Superintendent

Sometimes it take a good neighbor to hold up a mirror to show us the folly of our ways.

Such is the case of the Lewisboro Ledger and its recent editorial on Greenwich’s promotion of the retired superintendent of Katonah-Lewisboro, NY, school district:

“The hubbub around the latest superintendent hiring at Katonah-Lewisboro may not be the envy of school districts elsewhere, but at least residents here can be thankful they’re not in Greenwich. That’s because that Connecticut town has just promoted former Katonah-Lewisboro Superintendent of Schools Dr. Robert Lichtenfeld as its new human resources director. Apparently, they either did not talk to anyone here while researching his qualifications or decided his poor record of personnel decisions somehow was not relevant. So now New York taxpayers are footing the bill to pay yet another “retired” superintendent a hefty pension while he is employed in a well-paying major school district position elsewhere. And his promotion is just another example of how school boards throughout the area make questionable hiring decisions often by stressing the quantity instead of the quality of the candidate’s previous employment.”

Lewisboro is a village just north of Stamford. The paper is owned by the same company which publishes the Greenwich Post......
