Upcoming television: CBN News interview and Into the Fire Reairs
CBN News will broadcast an exclusive interview with Gary next week. We’ll post the date and time once we have it. In the meantime, click here for a short piece and video clip from today’s broadcast including a snippet of Gary’s speech earlier today.
Also, Into the Fire, the 90-minute documentary funded and presented by Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company, will have an encore presentation on Feb. 11 at 1 p.m. EST on The History Channel.
National Press Club on CSPAN Today
Sorry for the very late notice — it wasn’t listed when I checked yesterday — but C-SPAN’s listings now show Gary’s appearance at the National Press Club at 1:00 pm eastern today. Yes, that’s about 10 minutes from now. Again, sorry! It really wasn’t there yesterday. (These listings have not been pushed to Tribune and other guide services, as far as I can tell — TiVo listings showing “US Senate” for that time.)
The good news is that CSPAN seems to have an extensive video library on their site, so hopefully this will turn up there, or on the Press Club’s site. We’ll let you know if we find it. Again, sorry for the late notice.
Gary Supports Disabled Veterans Memorial
Gary’s upcoming National Press Club luncheon will apparently be used for announcing a $65 million initiative for a disabled veterans’ memorial. More here at the Marine Corps Times.
Also, there’s a quick mention here about Gary’s appearance at a special prom for teens suffering/recovering from kidney disease.
Gary Scheduled for CNN’s Larry King Tomorrow Night
Gary is scheduled to appear on CNN’s Larry King Live tomorrow night (Saturday, January 13) to talk about the Fisher House charity. Fisher House provides cost-effective housing near military and VA medical centers, allowing family members to be near wounded or ill military personnel or veterans while they are hospitalized.
The Lt. Dan Band is scheduled to perform a benefit for Fisher House on January 27 at the Washington Convention Center. Details here.
Larry King airs at 9 pm EST/6pm PST, and is repeated several times Saturday night and early Sunday morning. Check here or in your local listings for times.
(Thanks to Bob for the tip!)
Gary to Speak to National Press Club
According to the National Press Club, Gary is scheduled to appear as a lunch speaker on January 26. The topic is listed as “TBA” but given the Press Club’s interests, I expect it will focus on Gary’s veterans’/USO/OIC work.
These lunches are often televised by C-SPAN, so we will keep an eye out and let you know when it’s scheduled to air.
Gary Talks Steinbeck with Chicago Students
The Daily Herald reports on a phone interview a high school freshman honors class conducted with Gary about Of Mice and Men. Even better, you can listen to the entire chat — there’s a link to a downloadable mp3 file at the bottom of the article.
(Thanks very much to Bettina for the tip!)
Concert for Peace Photos
The Concert for Peace event last night in Chicago was apparently a big success! Thanks to reader Glenda Cain, we have some photos for you.

TV Guide
Here’s a (hopefully permanent) link to the TV Guide story on CSI:NY. Don’t miss it! And be sure to buy the December 4 issue from a newsstand while there are still a few around.
CSI:NY in TV Guide
If you aren’t a subscriber, grab a copy of the December 4 TV Guide at the supermarket this week! Gary and Melina Kanakaredes are on the cover, and there’s a nice story about CSI:NY inside.
You can see a preview of the article and a small version of the cover here (this link will only work for about a week).
