Auerbach Grayson, a New York-based brokerage firm that deals with international trading for U.S. institutional investors, has promoted Charlie Gushee, a 23-year industry veteran, to executive vice president and head of the firm's Western European equities desk.

In his new role, Mr. Gushee, 46, will supervise Auerbach Grayson's sales desk that handles research sales for the firm's coverage of the Western European region. His responsibilities will include managing relationships between the firm's Western European brokerage partners and its U.S. institutional investor clients. Mr. Gushee will also oversee the recruitment of sales staff on the Western European equities desk.

"We are delighted to have Charlie direct operations for our Western European equities business," says David Grayson, managing director and co-founder of Auerbach Grayson. "His extensive knowledge of the region and several years of developing relationships with both Western European brokerages and U.S. institutions make him the ideal candidate to expand our established business in this area of the world."

Mr. Gushee joined Auerbach Grayson in May 2006 as the vice president of Western European equities. Prior to joining the firm, he was vice president of European equities at Kepler Equities, a New York-based niche European brokerage, where he was the senior sales person on the firm's European equities desk. Earlier, Mr. Gushee served as director of European equities for SG Cowen Securities in New York, where he worked from 1992 until 2001.

Gushee has also served as a business English instructor for the Peace Corps at ISCAE, a business school in Casablanca, Morocco, from 1988 until 1990 before returning to the U.S. to receive his MBA from Columbia Business School in 1992.

Standing on the steps of the Nashua City Hall where JFK kicked off his campaign in 1960, Presidential Candidate Chris Dodd issued a call for National Service.

We like to be asked to roll up our sleeves and make a contribution," he said. "We haven't been asked in a long time."

Public diplomacy rests on sound public policy Date: June 10 2007 No: 1153 Public diplomacy rests on sound public policy
When President Kennedy spoke of "a long twilight struggle," and challenged the country to "ask not," he signaled that the Cold War was the challenge and framework defining US foreign policy. The current challenge is not a struggle against a totalitarian foe. It is not a battle against an enemy called "Islamofascism." From these false assumptions flow false choices, including the false choice between law enforcement and war. Instead, law enforcement and military force both must be essential instruments, along with diplomacy, including public diplomacy. But public diplomacy rests on policy, and to begin with, the policy must be sound. Read more.

Warren Wiggins: Architect of the Peace Corps Date: April 15 2007 No: 1095 Warren Wiggins: Architect of the Peace Corps
Warren Wiggins, who died at 84 on April 13, became one of the architects of the Peace Corps in 1961 when his paper, "A Towering Task," landed in the lap of Sargent Shriver, just as Shriver was trying to figure out how to turn the Peace Corps into a working federal department. Shriver was electrified by the treatise, which urged the agency to act boldly. Read Mr. Wiggins' obituary and biography, take an opportunity to read the original document that shaped the Peace Corps' mission, and read John Coyne's special issue commemorating "A Towering Task."

Chris Dodd's Vision for the Peace Corps Date: September 23 2006 No: 996 Chris Dodd's Vision for the Peace Corps
Senator Chris Dodd (RPCV Dominican Republic) spoke at the ceremony for this year's Shriver Award and elaborated on issues he raised at Ron Tschetter's hearings. Dodd plans to introduce legislation that may include: setting aside a portion of Peace Corps' budget as seed money for demonstration projects and third goal activities (after adjusting the annual budget upward to accommodate the added expense), more volunteer input into Peace Corps operations, removing medical, healthcare and tax impediments that discourage older volunteers, providing more transparency in the medical screening and appeals process, a more comprehensive health safety net for recently-returned volunteers, and authorizing volunteers to accept, under certain circumstances, private donations to support their development projects. He plans to circulate draft legislation for review to members of the Peace Corps community and welcomes RPCV comments.

He served with honor Date: September 12 2006 No: 983 He served with honor
One year ago, Staff Sgt. Robert J. Paul (RPCV Kenya) carried on an ongoing dialog on this website on the military and the peace corps and his role as a member of a Civil Affairs Team in Iraq and Afghanistan. We have just received a report that Sargeant Paul has been killed by a car bomb in Kabul. Words cannot express our feeling of loss for this tremendous injury to the entire RPCV community. Most of us didn't know him personally but we knew him from his words. Our thoughts go out to his family and friends. He was one of ours and he served with honor.
