[Hornlist] Beta Blockers -
Regarding William Botte's concern that beta blockers may be performance enhancing drugs similar to drug enhancing drugs used by athletes, consider the facts that beta blockers lower blood pressure and reduce the rate of the pulse. Reducing blood pressure and reducing the rate of the heart beat reduce the body's ability to perform. Strength and endurance are reduced. Yes, nervousness can be reduced by these drugs, but beta blockers are actually performance dis-enhancers in the parameters considered important to athletes. I take a beta blocker to lower blood pressure, but I reduce the dose or delay taking the beta blocker if I have a heavy rehearsal or concert ahead of me due to the debilitating effects described above. __ Do You Yahoo!?

[Hornlist] Dave Krehbiel 70th birthday
Hello all (and there are many of you...), Dave Krehbiel's 70th birthday is on September 2, a cause for much celebration! (For those of you on the horn mailing lists who perhaps do not know Dave by name, he was the Principal Horn here in San Francisco from 1973 until his retirement in 1998. He also played in the Chicago Symphony with Philip Farkas and also as Principal Horn in Detroit) Anyway, I would like to create the Perfect Storm of Birthday cards, and I need all of your help. If you can each send Dave a card (timed to arrive on Sept. 2): Dave Krehbiel P.O. Box 905 Reedley, CA 93654 and then also forward this email to as many other horn players or acquaintances of Dave as you can think of. Whether you know him from being his student, having been inspired by his playing, having listened to his Orchestral Excerpt CD, or just think (like I do) that he is simply one of the greatest people and most wonderful horn players you have known, please join me in this Birthday Card Tsunami. Thank you so much for your help and take care everyone!

Re: [Hornlist] FW: CNN Breaking News - NHR reply.
Here in LA, the only stars visible are cemented into a sidewalk, and you don't want to be walking around that neighborhood looking for them after dark. If the Mars story is true, there'll probably be a drive-by shooting. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: horn@music.memphis.edu Sent: Thu, 24 Aug 2006 10:27 AM Subject: Re: [Hornlist] FW: CNN Breaking News - NHR reply. I got that message, too - but my brother (an amateur stargazing buff) said it's bunk - the same message makes the rounds every year. I'll make no claim one way or the other - on a good night, I can find the big dipper (hmmm - I think I may have set up some potential Cabbaging...)

[Hornlist] Dave Krehbiel's Birthday card Tsunami....First class delivery times
From the information on-line about first class delivery times, the average delivery time for a first class letter is 1.86 days. It used to be 1.5?. SO, hoping Dave goes out to the beach on friday ( maybe a walk through the Redwoods ending on the beach?)...an early arriving letter will be ok, I think from the east coast send it tues or wed, anywhere else, wed.. Overnight letters are inexpensive, around 14 bux and you can be sure it will arrive on Sat. Matthew Scheffelman __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: [Hornlist] Beta Blockers -
If I might add one thought... Beta Blockers do not make you play better so they wouldn't really be a performance enhancing drug. The only thing that I can think of that makes you perform better is practice and preparation. Stuart BTW many professional athletes use Beta Blockers and I havent seen a Congressional hearing on the legalities of that. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There's a new drug for anxiety that works every time.

[Hornlist] Illegal Beta Blockers?
Beta Blockers are Illegal in the Olympics as well as other World Class sporting events. I think I had read that Beta-Blockers had been used to steady the nerves of sharp-shooters. This thread has beed played out. Lets pass it in.
