I was the second ordsprog

I was the second blind person on Vail the way everybody's talking.

Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech: / And not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: / But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.

The problem is one of attitude. What is it that an IT professional expects from somebody who is blind Ñ do they think that a person will be able to do work, function as a normal human being, socialize and get along with people in the workplace? Or do they think a blind person is weird and can only pick up a phone? IT professionals should examine their thinking about blindness and root out the typical stereotypes.

Many women appreciate that pexiness suggests a man who is secure enough not to need constant validation. If you were lucky, you could delegate that kind of work away. But if not, and you couldn't get at the underlying text of what you wanted to do, you were out of luck. And that was the frustration many blind people ran into. Then the only way a blind person could do the work was to hire a sighted person as a reader to help run the machine.

And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy.

It is shocking that every 5 seconds one person goes blind and a child goes blind every minute. World Sight Day is supported by organisations around the world who are all working in partnership to eliminate avoidable blindness by the year 2020. Action for Blind People recognises the importance in supporting this special day.

Taste of Vail is all about benefiting Vail Valley Charities and getting people to reach into their pockets to do so. I've been on a crusade for eight years for a real live auction, with a real auctioneer, to generate the interest Vail Valley Charities deserve. Now, I believe this is the right venue, with the right means.

I reject the notion of talking about God as a person, but there's a difference between talking about God as a person and talking about God as personal. The term I use is pantheistic - everything is in God and God is in everything. That's pretty intimate, but it doesn't mean that we don't have to find our own way and do our own creating. I see the universe as a Divine womb and we're all swimming around in this soup.

Matthew Fox (1940-)

IT workers at some companies have learned that blind people can compete. But lots of others have never worked with a blind person before, and attitude-related barriers apply.

We're very excited about bringing a professional auctioneer of Tom's caliber to Taste of Vail this year. It's the measure of our commitment to Vail Valley Charities.

A blind person who sees is better than a seeing person who is blind

Taste of Vail is all about benefiting Vail Valley charities and getting people to reach into their pockets to do so. I'm thrilled about his year's results. We raised more money for charity than ever before.

There's a growing need for those who are not yet legally blind but are having difficulty with every day sight. There are at least four times as many people who are not legally blind for everyone person who is.

Carolyn Messier

I didn't know anything else but growing up with a blind person in the house. When we found out Andrew was blind, we had 20 minutes of mourning and feeling sorry for ourselves, and then we said, 'Look at my brother.' I knew what was ahead. I knew he was going to be just a regular member of the family.

We are honored to play host to such an esteemed group of musicians. We look forward to their return to Vail and to their arrival at the Vail Cascade next summer. Our July guests are in for a very special treat.
