As the New England Section representative to the Nominations Committee, I was honored to speak on behalf of Rafael and John, along with John Devlin and Michael Katz, all of whom were generous enough to be willing to have their names put forward as nominee candidates. It was also a pleasure to hear other members of the Committee speak so highly of all of them, as well.</div><div><br></div><div>I will be serving on the Committee through the next nominating process (March, 2010) and hope that the section will once again be able to field such a outstanding group of candidates for nomination. In the meantime I would ask everyone to consider offering a nomination or self-nominating - I will be in touch with you later about making those nominations.</div><div><br></div><div>All the best to everyone for a great summer,</div><div><br></div><div>John</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><div apple-content-edited="true"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Herculanum; ">-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>John B.
