Jan 26, 2016 - Jason Dudley, from SRP's Emerging Customer Programs, gave us a presentation dealing with Sustainability and Resource Planning for the Future. Jason told us that SRP is the 3rd largest public utility company in the nation and just signed up its millionth customer. He gave us many interesting statistics about how SRP plans, what they track and project, and how their generating capacity is distributed within Arizona and externally. He noted that the future would involve much more power production from sustainable, renewable energy though storage and distribution are two major problems that have yet to be solved. Jason's presentation was very enlightening and generated much discussion.
Let us see if this works to get the social media share bar

Jan 11, 2016 - Tina Patton, Owner and Hearing Care Professional of Exceptional Hearing Care, gave us an excellent overview of the relationship between loss of hearing and brain functions. The statistics regarding the number and ages of people with hearing loss problems were staggering. In addition, there is a very strong correlation between hearing loss and cognitive decline and dementia. She stressed that everyone should be as concerned about hearing as they are about vision since one cannot reverse any atrophy that has occurred in the brain. Her presentation generated lots of questions and discussion.
