Dear Members,
As I sit here contemplating my last President's Mes-sage, I can't help but think about the past two years aswell as what the future has to hold. It was my utmostdesire to increase communication by developing amember's yahoo list as well as an updated website thatwill benefit the entire membership and promote thebreed that we love so dear. The latter could not havebeen accomplished without the help of a very computer-savy member, Cathy Marley, and for this I am mostappreciative. Nancy Plunkett has headed a very activeJudge's Education Committee with the intent of build-ing on an excellent JEC Presentation by updating thepictures and giving it a more professional presentationof the Lhasa Apso. With the board's approval, it will bepresented at this year's National Specialty JEC Seminar.Melissa Torgerson has worked diligently to update theALAC Handbook and we hope to have the updatedversion available in the near future. Barbara Schwartzhas headed up a National Specialty Committee whosehard work and commitment has given us a wonderful2008 National Specialty and I am sure that 2009 willcelebrate the 50th Anniversary of ALAC very appropri-ately. Special thanks needs to go to Marsha Susag for allthe hard work she has done to keep the board informedof the financial standings of the club throughout the lasttwo years. There are so many others that have partici-pated that it is impossible to list everyone as I know Iwill leave someone out, but please know that I thankyou all for your help during my terms of office.
The last decade has shown a definite decline in numbersin our breed. I am always hearing about ALAC mem-bers who have puppies that they are unable to sell due toa lack of interest in the general public in our breed.
So what does the future hold for the Apso? It is up toeach of us to promote our dogs. To welcome others toour fold with open arms as Lhasa Apso Fanciers. Lookat your fellow breeders including those who are notwithin your inner circle. Get to know them and ad-mire them for their dedication to our breed. Be willingto help those new to our sport but also be willing to letthem use their wings and go out on their own, bearingwith them the knowledge those with more experiencehave been willing to impart.
This year commemorates the 50th Anniversary of TheAmerican Lhasa Apso Club. The National SpecialtyCommittee has worked diligently to put together aspecial event for everyone to enjoy. If you haven't •attended a National Specialty, make this your first! Be-ginning with the Heritage Fun Match on Sunday, Oc-tober 11th through the National Specialty on Friday,October 16th the week is full of events to show theheritage and versatility of our breed. For more infor-mation, please visit the website at www.lhasaapso.orgor turn to page "48-49" in this issue of the bulletin.See you all in Carlisle in October!

LEXANDER THE GREAT
LEXANDER THE SO--S0In the spring of 2008, Sissy, the owner of Solid Gold Dog Food, went to
India to study ayurvedic herbs. It was there that she found that herCinna-Bone biscuits, which she had been making for four years, repelled fleas.Cinnamon contains sulfur, the eighth most prevalent mineral in a human
and dogs body. Insects cannot reproduce in the presence of sulfur. So, it is a naturalflea repellent. Cinnamon is helpful for diabetes, epilepsy, cancer and heart disease.
In the spring of 2009, Sissy went to Egypt to study ancient medicines and ancient alchemy. Alchemy is much morethan turning base metal into gold. It is the study of metals/minerals and how their frequency (now called electro-magnetism)heals the body.
Around 1470 B.C., Queen Hatshepsut of Egypt sent her ships up the Mississippi River towards the Detroit area to gettin and copper to make bronze. Bronze was used for farming implements, swords and shields. People even today wear copperbracelets and drink colloidal silver for healing. Colloidal silver was the natural antibiotic before the development of penicillin.
People used to wear gemstones for their healing frequencies.Solid Gold Sea Meal includes 60 trace minerals. Dogs and people are 11)̀/0 trace minerals and 4%
vitamins. If you don't give dogs trace minerals, the vitamins don't work. Sea Meal boosts up the thymus andthyroid glands which control the immune, hormone and enzyme systems. Sea Meal grows coat, intensifies coat color, increasesfertility, encourages brain function, etc. It is always fed with our Solid Gold dog food.
The Oriental, arctic dogs and dogs from England, Scotland, Ireland and all water dogs were fed seavegetation and fish for hundreds of years. All Solid Gold foods are fish based. If you don't feed fish and seavegetation, you are not supporting the DNA in the dog's body. They will chew at the root of the tail and lick
their feet.People ask us why we don't include Sea Meal in with our food. Sea Meal also contains probiotics and digestive enzymes
from the Prozyme Inc. Probiotics and digestive enzymes are destroyed at 120° and dry food is cooked at 350°. So all these dog
food companies that list probiotics and enzymes with their ingredients, didn't do their homework. You are paying for some-thing you are not getting.
Order the SeaMeal in one pound containers or five pound containers if you have big dogs, a kennel or horses. If your
horse has cracked hooves, navicular or founder, Sea Meal will help.The Egyptians grew barley and flax which we put into our dog food. Barley is anti-aging and used for transmigration
of the soul. It is also for diabetes and epilepsy.Now, for Alexander.At Alexandria, in Egypt is the story of Alexander's first battle against King Darius of Persia who
had 3,000 men and a pack of elephants. Alexander had 300 men — but he also had a pack of war dogs —Neapolitan Mastiffs — called mastinos.
Darius was astride his bull elephants approaching Alexander. At the last minute, Alexander let loosePeritas, his personal mastino. Peritas raced towards the bull elephant and attacked the swinging trunk. The startled elephantreared up and Darius fell oft Then, Alexander let loose the rest of the barking mastinos. They attacked the elephant's legs andtrunks. The surprised elephants turned around and ran into the other coming elephants and troops. The Persians were in chaosand scattered.
Alexander and his mastinos had won the day. That's how he began to be "The Great".

Jean and Jennifer would also like to acknowledge the passing this past winter of a dear friendand MLAC/ALAC Member, Mrs Evelyn Bigman- Mrs Bigman was one of the first members of our clubto welcome us with open arms to our new hobby and interest. At the 2002 Nationals in WorcesterEvelyn went out of her way to make room at her table for Jenn (who at the time was only 15)
and to make her feel like a important part of this show world, she spent time with herand taught her many nice little tricks of the trade.
Jennifer will always remember Evelyn for her kindness and support.Our Deepest Sympathy goes out to Evelyn's family, Sy, Arna & Riva. She will be remembered fondly.

GEMK Lhasas wants to thank and remember Evelyn Bigmanfor the many years of friendship, fun, educationand experiences with our wonderful breed.
As a new member of MLAC in 1975, I met Evy,along with Phyllis Marcy , and learned from the best.
The RJAY family ( Evy, Sy and Arna ) welcomed me intotheir circle of friends , for which I am eternally grateful.
Evy was bright and articulate ,had a vision for her RJAY kennel,
and was admired for her loyalty and devotionto family, friends and her Lhasas.
I was honored to co-own Ace with Evy and Ara,early in my show career.
Ace was a handsome, typey and correct, black Lhasa.
I miss you , thank you and will remember you , Evy,for all that you have done .

• The board is trying to find a qualified person to be the ALACNational show chairman, starting in 2010. There was discussionconcerning what we might do to make this position more attrac-tive to the candidate. No conclusion was determined.
• After discussion, it was determined that specialties or designat-ed specialties are automatically approved unless they are in con-flict with the ALAC National. This is in reference to a specialtyclub's request for approval to hold an independent specialty.

JEC:To: ALAC Officers, Board of Directors, JEC Committee Mem-
bersFrom: Nancy Plunkett, JEC ChairRe: Committee Report-June 2009 Date: June 11, 2009
The JEC began working in earnest in mid-March, two months
after my last report to the Board with recommendations for com-
mittee members. I had delayed the start of anything substantial
pending a formal response from the Board regarding my recom-
mendations, but eventually realized none would be forthcoming
and so put the committee to work.On March 23, I submitted a list of suggested projects to the
committee, based in large part on the reports I had asked for and
received from committee members in Dec/Jan. There has been
excellent communications thus far and the committee seems to
be working well together as we address the various tasks.
On March 21 there was a communication from the "Okla-
homa City Summer Classic Dog Show" in regard to the All
Non-Sporting Seminars they are hosting in July. I copied this
information to the committee and Lynette Clooney has gracious-
ly agreed to hold the ALAC presentation for them as she is the
closest committee member to that area.
On March 18 I received a telephone request from a Mr. David
Alexander for ringside mentoring at the Non-Sporting Group
Club of the Garden State show in NJ. Since he only gave me
one day notice and several of the committee members were
exhibiting under judge Jan Bruton and therefore not free to do
ringside mentoring, I mentored Mr. Alexander during judging
and feel he gained a real understanding of type, proportion and
movement during our conversation. Mr. Alexander did come
back to the show site the following day and had a chance to go
over some dogs with the other committee members/exhibitors,
which he did not have time to do the evening he was mentored
ringside.At the moment the committee is working on fine-tuning the JEC
powerpoint; giving it a new, fresher look and re-evaluating some
of photographs which have obviously been altered. Attached are
a couple of sample slides showing the new "look", which has
been very well received so far.
We have scheduled the JEC seminar at the National Specialty
for Wednesday afternoon, with ringside mentoring available at
the Futurity, ALAC Regional and the ALAC National. There
was much discussion about the schedule due to the fact that the
judging at the National this year is all on one day rather than
two days. This left no time for a two hour seminar or workshopprior to judging. Many options were considered by the com-mittee and most felt that Wednesday would be the most idealtime. I conferred with the AKC about whether Wed would beacceptable and after looking at how other parent club scheduletheir seminars it was decided that Wed would be ideal. We willbe following the AKC guidelines for National seminars, whichincludes a two hour seminar with live dogs, a workshop wherethe participants will have a chance to evaluate a class of dogs,and ringside mentoring for the next two days with numerousbreed experts. Many of you may have seen the flyer I createdadvertising the seminar, which appears on the JEC webpage onthe ALAC website. I also sent a copy of the flyer to each of thecommittee members to use as handouts to anyone that expressesinterest in attending the seminar.Respectfully submitted,Nancy PlunkettThere was some discussion as to which day to have judges men-toring, with reference to Nancy's report.
Handbook:Mellisa Torgerson sent a report. A discussion followed as towhat type of binders might be used when the supply of currentbinders was depleted.

Proposed change: ARTICLE I, Membership,SECTION 1. Eligibility.
Proposed ChangeChanging types of membership from two to three, adding For-
eign Membership.
HistoryIn the past Foreign membership has fallen under Single or
Household and have had all privileges of the club.
AKC recommends the following: Foreign Memberships which
entitle those members to all club privileges except voting and
office holding.
Possible wording for Foreign Membership:Foreign Membership. For persons residing outside of the UnitedStates. Enjoys all privileges of the club except the right to voteand hold office.Discussion: The purpose for this change is to prevent personsliving outside the US from voting on changes to the AmericanBreed Standard.. .a standard that they will not have to abide byin their country. This is the AKC's suggested solution to theproblem. It has the effect of preventing persons living outsidethe US from voting on other issues.
Proposed Revision to ARTICLE H,Section 3 and Section 4 Meetings.
Proposed ChangeAllow the Board of Directors to conduct its business betweenmeetings by electronic communication.
HistoryFor many years the ALAC Board of Directors (Board) had atradition of meeting face to face twice a year (in addition to therequired meeting immediately following the annual meeting orelection). The primary business meeting was and still is heldin conjunction with the National Specialty and annual meetingweek. The second meeting was held in the winter or spring,either in conjunction with the Westminster Dog Show in NewYork or at some other mutually agreed upon location. In recentyears however, two factors have changed the practice of havinga second in person meeting: 1) the cost and difficulty of traveland accommodations has made it hard to gather a quorum for anadditional meeting and 2) universal availability and acceptanceof electronic communication (email) made it possible to conductmost club business without the need and expense of an in personmeeting.Recently questions arose about the permissibility of conductingclub business via email and the practice was suspended. TheBylaws permit the Board to conduct its business "by mail, FAXor, in emergencies by telephone conference call" if confirmed inwriting within seven days. However, email is generally acceptedas the fastest, most flexible way to have a virtual discussion inlieu of in person meetings, video conference and phone confer-ences. If the Board had the ability to utilize email it is proposedthat its' ability to conduct business in a timely manner and haveenhanced and more collaborative communication would begreatly improved.
BackgroundIn February 2001 (revised February 2007) AKC Club RelationsDepartment issued a bulletin on the use of email communica-tions by Parent Club Board of Directors. In summary AKCdoes not approve of the use of email for "holding meetings"which means required or scheduled "meetings" must be eitherin person, by video conference or teleconference. AKC does,however, permit Parent Club Boards of Directors to conduct itsbusiness by email assuming certain conditions are met and thestate in which they are incorporated allows for the use of elec-tronic communication.
Business (voting) — can be conducted at meetings or through
mail, fax or e-mail. In order for business to be conducted by e-
mail the following precautions must be in place (and included in
the bylaws):1) every board member must be provided with the means to
participate;2) a procedure must be in place to verify the identity of theindividuals participating to ensure that they are the eligible board
members;3) a mechanism must be in place to verify that the eligible board
members are "listening";4) all board members must agree to participate in this manner
ALAC is incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia whose
laws permit essentially the same types of business to be conduct-
ed by Boards of Directors as ALAC.§ 13.1-865. Action without meeting of board of directors.
A. Except to the extent that the articles of incorporation or
bylaws require that action by the board of directors be taken at
a meeting, action required or permitted by this Act to be taken
by the board of directors may be taken without a meeting if each
director signs a consent describing the action to be taken and
delivers it to the corporation.
D. For purposes of this section, a written consent and the signing
thereof may be accomplished by one or more electronic trans-
missions.
Discussion: So, it would seem with the proper protocol in place
it is possible for ALAC to conduct its business between meetings
via email. Each Board could establish by standing rule its' own
protocol for conducting email business or let stand the protocol
in place at the time. Such a standing rule was in place in ?
and would be a good starting place if the Bylaws are amended
to allow for it. That standing rule was based upon Roberts Rules
applicable to the handling of motions at meetings but with the
addition of time frames for offering, seconding, accepting, dis-
cussion and voting on motions. The requirement for the Board
to have a consensus on doing business by email could be handled
by the Board at the required meeting after the Annual Meeting or
by subsequent phone call or written communication and would
remain in place throughout that board's year. If at any time
throughout the Board year a Board member objected to handling
an issue by email that item would move to the agenda of the next
meeting.
Proposed Bylaw Change
ARTICLE IIMeetings
SECTION 3. Board Meetings. The first meeting of the Board
shall be held immediately following the Annual Meeting or elec-
tion. At this meeting it will be determined that every member of
the Board has access to electronic communication and that there
is a consensus if electronic communication is to be used to con-
duct Board business between meetings during the coming
Board year. If electronic communication is to be used it my -•
be through a secure procedure which can verify that it is at,
sible exclusively to eligible Board members. The electronic
communication procedure must include the ability to produce a
return receipt to the President or Secretary to verify receipt of
all messages and all exchanges of messages must be sent to all
Board members. Other meetings of the Board of Directors shall
be held at such times and places as are designated by a major-
ity vote of the entire Board. The Board may meet in person, by
video conference or by telephone conference call: Written no-
tice of such other meeting shall be mailed, via first class mail 01
electronically according to the procedure above if agreed upon
by the Board, by the Secretary or President to each member
of the Board at least fourteen (14) days prior to the date of the
meeting. The quorum for a Board meeting shall be a majority of
the Board voting in person, by mail, FAX or, in an emergency
electronic communication, video conference or by telephone
conference call.SECTION 4. The Board of Directors may conduct its business
by mail, FAX or, in ei1ie,g%.,3 electronic communication.
video conference or by telephone conference call through the
Secretary. Business conducted by electronic communication
must be acknowledged including electronically by all Board
members before it can become effective and the provisions for
electronic communication in Section 3 above apply. Items voted
upon by electronically, by video conference or telephone
conference call must be confirmed to all board members in writ-
ing including electronically within seven (7) days.

Marsha Susag and Polly Naumann, the immediate past Trea-
surer, have both requested that the fiscal year be changed from
September 1 to August 31 to the calendar year, January 1 to De-
cember 31. In order to change the fiscal year, Ray has informed
the committee that we need permission from the IRS and will
have to submit extra tax forms. This can be done, just requires
more work (extra filings to the IRS) on the part of the Treasurer
and Ray.
ARTICLE IV
The Club Year, Voting, Nominations, Elections
SECTION 1. Club Year. The Club's fiscal year shall begin on
Scpkmbt..r 1 January 1 and end on August 31 December 31.
Proposed change: ARTICLE IV, The Club Year, Voting. Nomi-
nations, Elections, Section 3.. Annual Election. Insert at the end
of Section 3, Paragraph 2 Term Limits
No person shall be eligible to serve more than three consecutive
terms as President. A President who has served more than half
a term is considered to have served a full term. A past President
may be elected or re-elected to any position on the Board of
aneticanCook- - ,ze
hasaCala
Directors after a two year (or greater) hiatus from the Presidency.
No person shall be eligible to serve more than three consecutiveterms as Vice-President. A Vice-President who has served morethan half a term is considered to have served a full term.
No person shall be eligible to serve more than two consecutiveterms as a Director of the ALAC Board. A Director who hasserved more than half a term on the Board is considered to haveserved a full term. This section does not preclude re-election ofany person after a two year (or greater) hiatus from a Directorposition.
Discussion: There are arguments both pro and con for termlimits. On the one hand, good people can be hard to find andhard to replace. In addition, if the membership is unhappy withthe performance of the Board, they have the option of nominatingand voting in new people. Term limits can give a "minority" aposition of power that they didn't earn.
On the other hand, lack of turnover on the Board can discouragemembers from volunteering to help with club activities. Fur-thermore, lack of turnover helps perpetuate the "In's" versus the"Out's" problems that have plagued our club for far too manyyears. If more club members have the opportunity to serve on theBoard, not only might communication between the Board and thegeneral membership improve but there should be more empathyfor the time and effort being put forth by club volunteers and lesssecond-guessing of what the Board is trying to accomplish.
The By-Laws Committee believes that the Treasurer, Secretaryand Delegate should not be term limited since these are jobs thatcan be hard to fill and/or, in the case of the Delegate, can benefit
from longevity. However, the committee would like to see theVice President position evolve into a "President In Training" jobwhere a person either ascends to the Presidency in a timely fash-
ion or moves into a different job so that someone else can stepinto the "President In Training" role.
Traditionally, ALAC has placed a heavy burden of responsibilityfor the day to day activities of the club on the President so threeone year terms seem an adequate amount of time to move theclub forward while preventing stagnation and/or burn-out. Wealso believe that two consecutive terms on the Board (six years)provides people ample opportunity to learn about the Club's busi-ness and contribute to the Club's future. Remember, stepping off
the Board does not mean a person can not continue to work on
a Committee. In addition, because the Director hiatus does not
prevent people from moving into an Officer or Delegate posi-
tion, there will be opportunities to retain people who are making
outstanding contributions to the club. A person could conceiv-
ably be a part of the Board for 12 years (2 terms as a Board
member, 3 years as VP, 3 years as Pres.) before term limits would
mandate that he or she step aside. Finally, the term limit "clock"
would not start until the election following adoption of the By-
law changes. Time served by current Board members would not
count.

Proposed change:ARTICLE VI, Discipline,
SECTION 1. American Kennel Club Suspension.
History:In the past AKC has only had one type of Suspension and on04/08 issued the following information to all clubs.
Most clubs bylaws call for the suspension from the privileges ofa club of any club member that is suspended from the privilegesof The American Kennel Club. This language was recommend-ed when The AKC imposed only one type of suspension — allAKC privileges. At the present time, there are various types ofAKC suspensions such as: all privileges) event privileges onlyand registration privileges only.Clubs should take the appropriate steps to amend their bylawsby inserting either the word "any" or "all" AKC privileges as itpertains to
Section 1 — Any member who is suspended from (any/a11) theprivileges of The American Kennel Club automatically shall be
American-
L asaCala
suspended from the privileges of this club for a like period.
Until this clarification is adopted, the board of directors of each
club must decide how to interpret this provision. Such interpreta-
tions must be applied consistently in all cases which arise until
the bylaws are amended.(4/08)
Proposed change:any privileges of The American Kennel Club and all privileges
of this club
Discussion: None ( a precedence has been set by the Board)
ARTICLE V1Discipline
SECTION 1. American Kennel Club Suspension. Any member
who is suspended from the any privileges of The American Ken-
nel Club automatically shall be suspended from the all privileges
of this Club for a like period. If dues are due during this period
of suspension they must be paid or membership will lapse.
Unfinished Business:
• Barbara will send the final copy of the pre mailer, after board
approval, via ALAC on line. This information will also be put
on the ALAC web site as well as yahoo groups.
• Barbara also reported, that as yet, no one has stepped up to take
the position of National Show Chairperson. A motion was made
to allow the show chairperson to exhibit their dogs, and have the
show secretary contact the judge. 1 Marsha, 2nd Ray. (6-11-09
#2) General discussion followed. The question was not called.
A motion was made to table this topic to the next meeting. 1.
Ray, 2nd Bud. (6-11-09 #3) Motion passed.
• Ways and Means. Lynette tried to convince Phyllis and Wayne
to continue with the task. They, however, declined. Phyllis and
Wayne will donate the press to ALAC. Marsha has agreed to
take the press to her storage unit after this National. Marsha will
bring 1 each of the old year books to the show. She will take
orders for sale of the books. Marsha will check on the items in
inventory for ways and means. The shirts that are in storage, and
already paid for will have the new logo printed on them. Marie
Allman has agreed to man the ALAC booth at the National, but
does not wish to assume the title of ways and means. The 2009
ALAC tote bags will be black with gold metallic logo.

Jarrett. A motion was made to accept the proposal submitted
by Linda Jarrett. 1. Sherry, 2nd Bud. (6-11-09 #4) Motion

posal on the realignment of the groups. He said the delegates
can not vote on where the dogs may be placed in the proposed
Apsooard
Stubeel
realignment, only on the acceptance of the additional three
groups. The vote will be taken in September. The caucus will
be on Monday, and the vote on the AKC proposal on Tuesday.
Sherry suggested we advise Ray on how to vote concerning this
topic at our board conference call in August. Discussion fol-
lowed on the cost to the AKC to include the three new groups.
How does this potentially effect the ALAC?
