one of the most troubled places on earth. The filmmakers, with considerable

lives. Most impressively, Last Men in
Aleppo traces the lives of three of the group’s founders as they grapple
with the chaos about them. Last Men in

of your household waste from the landfill and offers a natural alternative to
chemical fertilizers. Glencoe resident Fred Miller, who initiated the Glencoe

get started. Experienced composters are encouraged to come by, too. Cosponsored
with the Glencoe Sustainability Task Force.

each other, what machines do better, and how to apportion electronic technology
in ways that are best for patients and for providers. Copies of Digital Healing (Routledge Press) will
be available for sale at the event.
