| 05/01/13 -05/03/13 | Butte College Drama Presents Lysistrata Ancient Play with Modern Themes. Tickets on Sale Now. How does a play written 2,500 years ago communicate to a 21st Century audience? "Lysistrata"—written by Aristophanes in 411 B.C.—has enjoyed enduring appeal due to its topics of sex and politics. Butte College presents the timeless production in the Black Box Theatre. The first two showings are free for students with a Butte College activity card. Tickets for the May 3 showing are $5 for students and $10 general. Directed by Barry Piccinino, the play follows the eponymous heroine and her militant sisterhood as they take unusual action to make their men stop fighting: staging a sex strike by withdrawing sexual favors until peace is declared; and freezing war funds by occupying the Acropolis. At the time of its inception, says Piccinino, "for women to assert themselves in public arena was pure 'theatre of the absurd.'" These days, it seems less absurd. Women have staged sex strikes in recent years in Colombia, Turkey, Poland, New Zealand and Sudan, seeking to stop drug wars, combat repressive legislation, and conserve their environment. "As you watch our production, we hope you laugh, giggle, and blush just a bit," says Piccinino, "but don't be surprised if you leave the theatre thinking about our world today." Due to its content, this play is for mature audiences only. Tickets may be purchased at the Black Box Theatre in the ARTS building on main campus. For more information, call (530) 895-2994. more info... |

| 05/05/13 | Conference of American Council of Hypnotist Fred’s workshop is scheduled for Sunday May 5 from 10:00 am – 1:00 pm Remarkable Healing Explored and Examined Fred C. Leidecker Yankee Hill, CA Our experience with trance and healing has brought about convincing evidence that virtually all dis-ease (fear) has its roots deep in our energy systems (known as mind, emotion or spirit). Every thought mixed with emotion creates our life. If our thoughts are of a negative nature one can then expect body and life events to be of a negative nature. There is a guidance within that will lead the serious student to the truth of sickness and other negative problems in life and body. It is becoming clear that we humans can and must take control of our own wellbeing. We can no longer afford otherwise! Fred will guide the participants through at least one demonstrated session using deep trance and techniques that will move the client/student toward lasting success. Fred C. Leidecker is a recognized expert in the area of healing. Fred's more than 35 years’ experience as a successful hypnotist is a result of his lifelong interest in human consciousness and its relationship to healing. His teaching aims to guide you to a deeper understanding of yourself by blending his knowledge of spiritual truths with hypnotic techniques. Fred will cover his personal techniques for healing body, mind and soul leading his clients and students to a harmonious state of wellness. Fred C. Leidecker can be reached at Mystic Valley Retreat. 530-533-8100 For conference information contact American Council of Hypnotist Examiners 700 S. Central Ave. Glendale, CA 91204 phone: (818) 242-1159 hypnotismla@earthlink.net more info... |

His passion for painting watercolor has a new partner – photography. Guy takes hundreds of photos a week and uses them for subject matter for paintings. Along with his seasonal hunting trips with his son Mike, Guy is a highly competitive bass, striper and sturgeon fisherman. Guy says he is often asked, “How do you find the time to paint?” It’s simple- I Make the time! Nothing makes me happier than reaching a person’s inner senses through art.
