it's hard to know what to believe from the media and their dire storm forecasts. the main goal is to attract eyeballs and attention. i generally regard most of these severe warnings with a very wary eye. just one big storm has gone up the hudson, as i recall

(1024x768) faces don't lie; governments do. the false bravado, the makeup hiding tears and fears..... my job has been threatened and taken, as has or may be yours.... we hope not... the feds wants to take the local postmarking jobs (for a start) to cleveland(about 80 jobs). the newspaper article said something like the proposal is available for inspection at the local post office. i asked to see it. it's not there, at least for public inspection. doesn't that tell us something? <br type="_moz"> there's a community meeting at senior high tonight at 7pm where the cold facts will be administered. show these fine public servants our local support. are the good times really over for good?? merle haggard http://youtu.be/BRtqUNEKXdg

lester young-charlie parker marathon

few folks can speak knowledgeably of jazz and it's lineage. as we all know, there are mountains of fine jazz predating bird. -
saturday, sunday, monday on wkcr http://www.studentaffairs.columbia.edu/wkcr/ Submitted by Ellen Walkington on Wed, 17 Aug 2011, 1:46pmWKCR will dedicate 72 hours of broadcasting to the music of Lester Young and Charlie Parker. Join WKCR as we dedicate three days of programming to the music of two of the greatest saxophonists: Lester Young (born 8/27/1909) and Charlie Parker (born 8/29/1920). Each can be heard for 36 hours beginning August 27th. The music of Lester Young is an eternal font of jazz, returned to again and again by each generation of musicians. His lyrical conception, intimate tone, and sly, shocking phrasing helped redefine both his instrument, the tenor saxophone, and the jazz solo in general. In the Basie band, his flights of fancy found support on the ground of fresh swing rhythms. Combined with the burnished singing of Billie Holiday, his wit took on an edge and softened pained sophistication into raw beauty. It's no stretch to claim Pres as one of the greatest this music will ever produce. Dig for yourself from 12m on the 27th until 11:59am on the 28th. In Charlie Parker, we find more than just incredible technique, fearless improvisation, and newly advanced senses of harmony and rhythm. His fusing of all three opened the door not just to bebop, but to everything that followed, from Lee Konitz to Anthony Braxton. There are many others who contributed to the bebop revolution, including Diz, Monk, Klook, etc., but it is in Bird's music in which we hear the birth of what we now mean by "jazz." His tragic passing does not lessen the imprint of his contributions, and in the end it is always best to search for this impact in the music itself. Be sure to do so from 12n on the 28th until 11:59pm on the 29th. ------- Submitted by Leena Mahan on Tue, 23 Aug 2011, 12:56amWednesday August 24, 2011 6-9pm: Tune in to the Musician's Show this week to hear from percussionist, drummer and vibraphonist Ches Smith. A versatile player and composer, Smith has recorded and performed in a variety of settings, including work with Marc Ribot's Ceramic Dog, the solo percussion project Congs for Brums and his quartet These Arches with Tony Malaby, Mary Halverson and Andrea Parkins. Listen as Smith discusses his own work as well as recordings that have had an influence on his playing and composition. For more information, including dates for upcoming performances with These Arches, visithttp://www.chessmith.com/index.html

thrift rack (1024x768) A naked Adam may have fallen upon an equally naked Eve without the need of props. But in this day of curiously unerotic sexual explicitness and demystifying psychological close-ups, we are in desperate need of the feminine wiles that once characterized style icons like Marlene Dietrich, Babe Paley, and Jackie O. (I think a hat qualifies, Ladies...) It isn't what I do, but how I do it. It isn't what I say, but how I say it, and how I look when I do it and say it. (Mae West) The right hat may also enliven our imagination of the past....an old-fashioned cloche, a picture hat, or a toque trimmed with a pouf of polka-dotted veiling is just enough to make us feel as if we were living in another, romantic age. http://www.hatladies..._hat_quotes.htm a classic jeanne ruarke issue tea for two prez with king cole http://www.youtube.c...h?v=VAG_Yo8709o

Digression thread: Coherence is overrated
alocispepraluger102 replied to AllenLowe's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
this magnificent thread, with all respect, may i submit that neither this nor any will remotely touch the political thread for self-righteous fervor, absurdity, lies, and nonsensical rhetoric. -
considering all that, and i did, the skills of many jazz musicians border on the super human.
