Submitted by Kevin "(the) Magu... on Mon, 8 Oct 2012, 8:44pm Join WKCR as we preempt 24 hours of regular programming on Tuesday, October 9th, 2012 to celebrate the life and music of one of the towering figures of free jazz, Danish-born saxophonist John Tchicai, who passed away on Sunday. Born on April 28, 1936, Tchicai cut his teeth in Copenhagen. By 1963, he had made the rounds of the Northern European jazz scene. He then came to New York, just ahead of the shake-up jazz would receive at the hands of the October revolutionaries.

you are right. a young nurse, running on the treadmill beside me today, seeing my inexpensive but decent sounding koss portapros, mentioned how much she hated earbuds, how they hurt her ears, how they were always falling out, and how crappy they sounded, but she said they were 'the fashion.'

now on wkcr, an overview of tchai's music. most of tomorrow will be a memorial broadcast......... WKCR THEY JUST FINISHED PLAYING A RECORDING OF ASCENSION.

a few of my friends have cubs season tickets(costing thousands of dollars), 3rd highest prices in the majors, even for next year. they ended up with 25 games they couldn't GIVE away.

moneyball 2-indepth article about the 2012 A's. LINK "The Rangers have a budget of $120 million, and the Angels decided to pay $154 million to try and catch them. The third team in the division, the Seattle Mariners, are laying out $81 million just to hold onto bronze, while the A's looked under the cushions and in the cup holder and scraped up $55 million to apparently play ego booster to the rest of the American League. In the early season, the A's bullpen didn't get many leads, and when it did, it failed to hold them. Grant Balfour, a 2011 holdover, was sent back to middle relief after he couldn't close. For a team with no margin for error, ninth-inning errors were gut-wrenching. Looking down the bench, Young found Ryan Cook, yet another fringe rookie prospect acquired over the winter, and essentially said, I know you just started, but we need you to finish. Cook did so for three months, and became the A's' sole representative on the American League All-Star team."

you've summarized the braves role in the game brilliantly, as you so often do. thx.

+1. Not exactly a Mel Gibson or Christian Bale style of "losing it", and kind of a misleading thread title. Glad I listened, though... that was pretty funny. Shatner worked that guy the way he deserved to be worked. i took the inaptly named title from the video heading.

this reminds so much of nonathlete sports talkers criticizing athletes.

assuming anything in the now-explosive record industry might be a bit of reach. they are desperate. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

i saw it last 6 months ago and the movie seemed silly.

LINK "A US court is to consider a case that could determine whether digital media files can be resold. One-year-old start-up ReDigi is battling music giant EMI over whether digital music can be retraded after it has been legally purchased. ReDigi says that its software is designed to comply with existing United States copyright laws. But EMI argues a legal principle which allows consumers to resell purchased material goods does not apply. A judge at the district court in Manhattan, New York, will hear opening arguments in the case on Friday after EMI sued ReDigi for copyright infringement earlier this year."

i don't believe that for 1 minute. don't you remember those late night world series games in the east played in monsoons or biting cold/snow/rain? tv rules/ruins all american sports that i can think of. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: bingo
