Novel 'Mary Coin' based on famous Depression-era photograph
It is hard not to be drawn in by Dorothea Lange's iconic photograph called "Migrant Mother." The photo, a now ubiquitous image of struggling farm workers during the Great Depression, is startling in its honest depiction of poverty, strength and despair.
It was this picture, hanging in a gallery at New York's Museum of Modern Art, that inspired acclaimed writer and filmmaker Marisa Silver to pen her new novel, "Mary Coin." Like many other fascinated viewers before her, Silver imagines the moment that the government photographer (here called Vera Dare) approached the destitute family matriarch (Mary Coin) and asked to capture a moment of her life on film. »Read Full Article

American Players delivers terrific 'Liaisons Dangereuses'
Spring Green — When we last checked in with actors Jim DeVita and Tracy Michelle Arnold, they were opening an intense American Players Theatre production of "Antony and Cleopatra," sacrificing kingdoms and continents for all-consuming love.
But that was August and now it's November, with the ripening and sensual world of late summer replaced by something altogether bleaker and colder, in which sex is about power rather than passion. »Read Full Article(1)
Listening to Lou Reed: An Introduction
When I heard that Lou Reed died Oct. 27, I did what many fans did: I listened to his music, in some instances songs I hadn't played in years. That got me thinking about what I liked and didn't like about his music and that, gentle reader, brought me to "a very big decision" (to quote Reed's "Heroin").
I decided to listen to his solo albums, in chronological order, and blog about them here. Starting Friday, I'll blog about an album each week until I've finished going through his body of work. »Read Full Blog Post

When Florida Georgia Line visited Milwaukee in July, they played a 30-minute opening set for Luke Bryan at Summerfest.
Even then, the duo's popularity far exceeded their billing. Despite the early stage call, the Marcus Amphitheater was packed and fans sang back the chorus to their huge country and pop hit, "Cruise." When their Sunday night headlining gig in the Rave's Eagles Ballroom was announced, it quickly sold out. »Read Full Article(1)

Chris Pratt
Known For: Lovable doofus Andy Dwyer on "Parks and Recreation," pickin' machine Scott Hatteberg in "Moneyball," a Tony Robbins-loving Navy SEAL in "Zero Dark Thirty."
In His Favor: His supporting work in a pair of Best Picture nominees, and his gift for improvisation, has gotten Pratt enough attention from the movie business that Marvel just signed him as the lead in "Guardians of the Galaxy." Is chameleon enough that he could play both the cocky action hero side of the character and also deliver wry punchlines — and, based on his track record on "Parks" and in "ZDT," odds are he'll improvise something funnier than what the screenwriters give him.
Against Him: Could he do both a Solo movie and "Guardians"? Would Disney want a bigger name for this, or would they trust the "Star Wars" brand name to make the actor a star?

Eagles fall in title game
Going into the final four of the 4A state high school baseball tournament last weekend, the Federal Way Eagles said any team hoping to keep them from winning a second consecutive championship would need good pitching and hitting.
The Woodinville Falcons had plenty of both as they stunned Federal Way 6-1 in the title game Saturday at Cheney Stadium.
For the first state championship in its school history, Woodinville rode the left arm of pitcher Chris Albrecht and a six-run, four-hit outburst in the fifth inning.
Weve been a big-inning team all along, said Falcons coach Terry Agnew. We swing the bats pretty well and theres always somebody different coming through for us.
Federal Way, which finished the season with a 21-3 record including a 3-1 trimming of Richland in the semifinals Friday realized its worst fears against Woodinville (24-2).
We knew they had good arms and could hit, said coach Eric Fiedler. Well look back in a couple weeks and realize what we accomplished this year. But right now, this hurts.
Albrecht, a junior, kept Federal Ways attack at arms length. Except for Kenny Yuns two-out triple in the third inning to score Greg Washington, the Eagles advanced runners to second base only twice on a hit batter and a walk in the second inning, and via an error and a walk in the fifth.
Albrecht finished with a six-hitter and nine strikeouts, including three strikeouts in the sixth inning that further dimmed any Federal Way hope of a comeback.
Yun had his own pitching gem through four innings. He retired the first 10 batters and kept his team ahead 1-0. He had good stuff, Fiedler said.
Then came the fifth inning, as Woodinvilles offense broke out in almost every way imaginable sometimes with Federal Ways help. Matt Tuiasosopo, brother of former University of Washington quarterback Marques Tuiasosopo, led off with a double and scored when Nick Hall followed with a single.
After Federal Way third baseman Brett Davis stopped Casey Prisemans hard smash but couldnt make a play on it, Yun gave up his first walk, loading the bases. Then Hall raced in with the winning run on Mark Thompsons squeeze-bunt single.
After that, Yun walked Kevin Agnew to force in another run and Richie Lentz ripped a two-run double just inside the leftfield line, building the Falcons lead to 5-1. Yun was replaced by Travis Ishikawa, whose bases-loaded pitch hit Tuiasosopo up for the second time in the inning to account for Woodinvilles final run. A double play to end the inning stopped the onslaught.
Albrecht retired Federal Way in order the last two innings to set off a joyful title celebration of his team and its fans.
Tuiasosopos double and the squeeze play were keys to Woodinvilles fifth-inning surge, Agnew said.
Fiedler said he was hoping in the fifth inning that Yun would be able to pitch his way out of trouble, although we saw that hed lost some velocity.
Yun allowed six hits, struck out four Falcons and walked four in four and one-third innings.
Ishikawa, who started the game at first base, was hitless in four at-bats in his final game for Federal Way. Another senior star, Shea McFeely, had a double.
Besides the lone run in the third inning, the only time Federal Ways offense sniffed home plate was two innings later, when Washington and McFeely reached base on an error and a walk, respectively. The mini-rally ended when Yun flew out to centerfield.
Woodinville played most of the game without starting leftfielder Andy Lentz.
He suffered a concussion and a possible broken wrist in a collision with shortstop Agnew as they tried to catch a bloop single by Federal Ways Brandon Goff in the first inning.
It was a tough night for Lentz, said his coach. Winning a championship eased the pain, though.
Federal Way 3, Richland 1
McFeely finished his high school career unbeaten as a pitcher, going 19-0 with a five-hit, five-strikeout performance Friday.
Three of Richlands hits came in the first two innings. One of them should have kept John Tierney on first base with a single in the second inning, but the ball got past Ishikawa into the outfield, allowing Tierney to dash to third base. He scored later on Ryan Meads sacrifice fly to knot the score at one apiece.
Federal Way broke the deadlock on junior second baseman Washingtons heroics in the fifth inning. They were set up by Donny Farris leadoff single (the Eagles third hit to that point), another single by Andre Piper-Jordan and Richlands decision to intentionally walk Ishikawa and pitch instead to Washington.
Its frustrating because it seems like its disrespectful to me, Washington said of teams intentionally walk Ishikawa to get to him. But it makes me a better player. Im just looking to get a good pitch and drive it.
Washington responded with a single that scored Farris and Piper-Jordan.
The gamewinner was one of Washingtons two hits in the contest.
Other than a two-out single in the sixth inning, McFeely had no trouble protecting the lead the rest of the way. He got a measure of revenge against Tierney and Mead by striking them out in the final inning.
McFeely fanned the same duo to end a Richland threat in the fourth inning, when the Bombers had a runner on second base with one out.
McFeely was involved in Federal Ways first run. In the first inning, Ishikawa walked, stole second base and sprinted home on McFeelys groundout.

Ratings for Dr. Sabiha Rasheed
I have been seeing Dr. Rasheed for about a year and find her very eager to help with my problems and very knowledgeable. She goes out of her way to help me and is always very concerned as to how I'm feeling. She always gives me a thorough going over when she examines me and is very gentle while doing this (I have fibromyalgia, which is very painful). She's very soft-spoken and will answer all of your questions. I never feel rushed when I see her and I have felt with other doctors. I highly recommend Dr. Rasheed.
This doctor severely injured my kneee with an injection (not cortisone). I was in terrible pain and she did nothing to help me. She also contacted another doctor (David Bell) who recommomended an aspiration of my knee. Neither doctor had examined me. Fortunately, I was able to get help from other doctors. My injury went untreated for 6 weeks because of her negligence.
Helpful and listens to your concerns and responds well

- Android Pay (GOOG, GOOGL) functionality on hundreds of thousands of sites accepting Visa Checkout (V +1.2%) and Masterpass (MA +0.5%) to come.
- Integrations to begin rolling out in early 2017.
- Competition in the digital payments arena is sharp, with offerings from Apple, Samsung, PayPal and others all focused on simplifying the process of transacting payments. Google, with its newly-launched Pixel, and Apple, however, are in unique positions to blend their respective payments operations throughout software and hardware at a time when the spotlight on ecosystems is particularly bright.

- While Tesla Motors (NASDAQ:TSLA) may have grabbed some headlines this week for its ambitious goals with autonomous driving (SAE level 5), the technology is being widely discussed across industries as a potential future reality.
- At a real estate conference in New York this week, a panel member called autonomous vehicles the biggest tech news concerning real estate in the last ten years. Some see a future reversal of urbanization trends in a development that could have significant investment implications.
- City planners and architects are already thinking of next-gen design. A paper titled "Beyond Google's Cute Car" (.pdf version) is a good example of how cities are being reimagined.
- Then there's this from the man who designed the 2015 Ford Mustang. "The next 10 years in this business is going to be the biggest change and challenge since the turn of the last century when cars took over for horses," said Ford design chief Moray Callum. Ford (NYSE:F) aims to have a high-volume, fully autonomous SAE level 4-capable vehicle in commercial operation in 2021.
- Self-driving car development is a topic of discussion on FedEx (NYSE:FDX), UPS (NYSE:UPS), Lyft (Private:LYFT), Uber (Private:UBER), Hertz Global (NYSE:HTZ), Google (GOOGL, GOOG), Avis Budget (NASDAQ:CAR), Domino's Pizza (NYSE:DPZ) and Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA). Earnings season is just heating up, but a host of companies -- including OTCPK:TMOAF, OTCPK:DDAIF, OTCPK:VOLVY, MXIM, CPRT, WBC, GNTX and XLNX -- have already talked up the trend on their conference calls. GM reports earnings this week and will update on any self-driving Chevy Bolt plans.
- Looking ahead, insurance companies, chipmakers, truckers and cybersecurity firms (NYSEARCA:HACK) will be firmly in the self-driving conversation.
- So who has a profitable trade idea off of the evolution of cars?
Fri, Oct. 21, 5:23 PM
- AT&T's (T -3%) interest in Time Warner (TWX +7.8%) progressed quickly from "had talks" to "advanced talks" and now a deal could be set by Monday -- which Bloomberg says is due to a sped-up timetable caused by Bloomberg's initial report.
- That's because AT&T is said to be concerned that the publicity could allow other interested suitors like Apple (AAPL -0.4%) or Alphabet (GOOG +0.3%, GOOGL +0.3%) to jump in -- and indeed Apple is said to be monitoring the deal talks, after it made its own approach to Time Warner a few months ago, The Wall Street Journal reports.
- Those talks involved execs under Apple chief Tim Cook and didn't get beyond a preliminary stage. A source tells the WSJ that Google doesn't look interested in an offer for Time Warner.
- But the story of the deal points out just how much behind-the-scenes strategic talk is going on in the media/telecom spaces, as companies vie to be among the new leaders in an upended, converged digital media climate.
- Sumner Redstone was said to be considering not only the merger of CBS (CBS +2.1%) and Viacom (VIA +2.7%, VIAB +2.8%) that he's already pushing for, but also to combine that entity with Time Warner.
- Meanwhile, Comcast (CMCSA -0.5%) could join another company to get involved, the WSJ says, though that makes more sense if Time Warner's open to being parted out.
- Unlikely to join in this time: Twenty-First Century Fox (FOX +2.2%, FOXA +2.2%), whose own pursuit of Time Warner failed in 2014 at $85/share, and Walt Disney (DIS +1.1%).
- Previously: Time Warner at 15-year highs on merger talk; media companies rise (Oct. 21 2016)
Fri, Oct. 21, 3:16 PM
- Integrations between Google's (GOOG, GOOGL) G Suite (Calendar, G Suite Marketplace initially) and Intuit's (INTU +0.6%) Quickbooks Online highlighted.
- Intuit: "This is the beginning of an exciting collaboration between Intuit and Google that will deliver huge benefits for the millions of small businesses that we serve around the world. Our data indicates that 56 percent of QuickBooks customers are using Google Calendar to book appointments, schedule meetings and track client work. By bringing our technologies together, we will create important efficiencies between two solutions customers are already using."

- Google's (GOOG, GOOGL) getting more involved in the art of physically displaying and demonstrating hardware products, setting up shop in its own space in SoHo and within specially-designed areas at select Best Buy Canada (BBY +0.8%) stores as of today.
- Although Google doesn't span the globe with well-designed physical locations as does its target rival (NASDAQ:AAPL), these initial moves to showcase its new hardware portfolio could mark a sign of others to come.
- Made by Google (96 Spring Street), Pixel
- Earlier in the week: Google Pixel reviews overall positive ahead of release
Thu, Oct. 20, 8:28 AM
- Shares of Tesla Motors (NASDAQ:TSLA) are lower in early trading after the company announced it is loading all new cars with self-driving hardware.
- Elon Musk told reporters last night that he envisions that by the end of 2017 a Tesla vehicle will be able to drive from Los Angeles to New York without the driver touching the wheel. He also said the software system will be built by Tesla and run off of Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) chips.
- Tesla's timetable is aggressive in relation to the stated plans of some rivals. Earlier this year, Ford (NYSE:F) said it aims to bring a high-volume, fully autonomous vehicle to the ride sharing industry by 2021, while Nissan has a target of 2020 for "commercially viable" autonomous models. General Motors (NYSE:GM) already has a pre-production Bolt EV out in the wild, but hasn't set a specific timetable for a fully autonomous version.
- Google (GOOG, GOOGL) is the company that has posted the most information about the challenges of the self-driving car initiative. A scan of Google's monthly reports is not a bad way to catch up on the burgeoning technology.
- Previously: Tesla announces all vehicles to be loaded with self-driving hardware (Oct. 19)
- TSLA -1.74% premarket to $200.01.
Wed, Oct. 19, 2:51 PM
- A new TV service from Google (GOOG +0.8%, GOOGL +0.6%) is likely to come in early 2017 after the company reached a carriage deal with CBS (CBS +0.7%) and is near distribution deals with Disney (DIS +0.6%) and Fox (FOX +0.8%, FOXA +0.4%) as well, The Wall Street Journal reports.
- Reportedly called "Unplugged," the service would target cost-conscious viewers with a "skinny" bundle of live channels at $25-$40 per month, sources told the paper.
- While it would be housed on Google's YouTube infrastructure, it would be separate from the existing ad-free YouTube Red subscription offering, though a curated part of Red would be part of the Unplugged bundle.
- The bold move (with deals coming more rapidly than Apple's progress into TV) comes ahead of a planned live service from Hulu (CMCSA +0.2%, DIS, FOX, FOXA, TWX -0.1%) as well as AT&T's (T +0.2%) DirecTV Now offering arriving later this year (likely at $50/month or more), and enters a skinny space that already holds Sling TV (DISH +1.4%).
- Updated 3:48 p.m.: Viacom (VIA +0.3%, VIAB +0.8%), home of MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central and BET, is also in advanced talks to join the service.
- Wall Street Journal report
Wed, Oct. 19, 2:38 PM
- Google (GOOG, GOOGL) has reached a deal with CBS (NYSE:CBS) on a planned Web TV service -- and the search giant is also in advanced talks with Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS) and Twenty-First Century Fox (FOX, FOXA) to join, according to Dow Jones Newswires.
- The service would be housed on Google's YouTube, which has made inroads this year on live-streaming as well as subscription offerings, including ad-free product YouTube Red.
- The move comes slightly ahead of an expected late-2016 launch from AT&T (NYSE:T) of its DirecTV Now streaming service. AT&T chief Randall Stephenson has said that service would be "very, very" aggressively priced; most analysts expect an offering around $50 a month or as much as $60/month.
- AT&T (T) makes a dip down, now up just 0.3% on the day.

Tue, Oct. 18, 1:29 PM
- While initial reviews of Google's (GOOG, GOOGL) Pixel device are mostly favorable ( "home run", "first rate"), a broad theme to develop across the write-ups is the perception that the offering is mainly good relative to prior and existing Android smartphones.
- Though consideration as "the best Android phone" is nonetheless positive, Google is hoping to not only challenge Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) with the Pixel, but compete with Apple (AAPL +0.5%) and position itself as a major player in the market where its products can be viewed as a top option across all ecosystems.
- Still in the early stage of a hardware strategy redirection, Google will release the Pixel onto the market this Thursday with consumer reception, eventual sales figures and other factors to detail more comprehensive impact of the device in coming time.
- Further reviews: Associated Press, Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, WIRED, CNET, Engadget, VentureBeat, Gizmodo
Mon, Oct. 17, 1:01 PM
- Target on Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) previously set at $940 (current price Class A – $810.20, Class C – $783.60)
- Analyst Stephen Ju cites advertiser budget deployments for search increasing into Q3 and the holiday period, advertising product diversity, revenue growth acceleration realized in Q2 and anticipated multiple expansion in the call.
- Outperform rating and status as top pick in coverage universe maintained.
- Earlier: Credit Suisse raises Amazon target to $1,050
Fri, Oct. 14, 4:47 AM
- Tech giants including AMD, Dell/EMC, Google (GOOG, GOOGL), HPE, IBM, Mellanox (NASDAQ:MLNX), Micron (NASDAQ:MU), Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Xilinx (NASDAQ:XLNX) have linked up to give Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) a good kick in the datacenters.
- The group has come up with an open specification, dubbed OpenCAPI, that can boost server performance by up to 10x.
- Effectively they are moving away from PCIe, the current industry standard, to something that is both more open and vastly more powerful.

- Google (GOOG, GOOGL) was expected to formally address the charges today.
- A new deadline has now been set for November 7. Responses to two separate cases involving Android and online search advertising are due on October 31 and October 26, respectively.
- The European Commission, leading the investigation on all of the cases, has reportedly warned penalties in the shopping and Android cases may be significant.
Thu, Oct. 13, 5:14 AM
- Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) and Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) are joining with China's Pacific Light to lay an ultrafast internet cable between Los Angeles and Hong Kong, the latest sign of its U.S. backers' insatiable appetite for bandwidth.
- Meanwhile, Nokia's (NYSE:NOK) Alcatel Submarine Networks has set a new record for cable transmission capacity for communications traffic - doubling its previous levels - as the company responds to a pick-up in demand from Internet firms.
Wed, Oct. 12, 1:24 PM
- In a segment on CNBC, Sacconaghi indicates Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF) anticipated selling 25M Galaxy Note 7s this year and despite these users now being on the open market, offers a "wild guesstimate" of 20% (5M incremental units) of them potentially defecting to Apple.
- Further considers broader Samsung brand damage and the possible impact it could have on the company's other smartphone lines (50M-60M total sold per year in $500 range), adding this could contribute to further incremental iPhone buyers should defection occur across these as well.
- Though suspecting a moving away from Samsung devices (highlights Google Pixel, which exists in Android ecosystem), he nonetheless points out it is still too early to discern concrete outcomes of the situation.
- Maintains Apple (AAPL +1.2%) at Outperform and a $125 target (current price $117.50).
- Yesterday: Drexel Hamilton projects 8M iPhone unit gain for Apple resulting from Galaxy Note 7 demise

Amy Winehouse: Another Tragic Waste Of Human Potential
They tried to make me go to rehab, I said, "No, no, no"
Yes, I've been black but when I come back you'll know, know, know
I ain't got the time and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab, I won't go, go, go. — Amy Winehouse, "Rehab"
Addiction is a serious disease; it will end with jail, mental institutions or death. — Russell Brand
Amy Winehouse died this week-end at only 27 years of age and undoubtedly, she was full of music that she never got to share with the world when she passed. This was a woman who had talent, looks, success, and fame. In other words, superficially her life was the fulfillment of a dream that billions of people around the world share. Yet, she died as she lived the last few years of her life: In a drunken, drug-addled haze. She left behind a mother and dad. She left behind a boyfriend who she had once asked to marry her, who dumped her a month ago because he came to believe she wouldn't ever get clean.
This is a woman who could have lived to a ripe old age, married and had children. She could have had a glorious career and eventually retired with a husband to a dream home and spent her days with grandchildren bouncing on her knee, wondering how she got so lucky. I wish it had finished that way for her. Instead, it's all ending in tears and romanticized Rock'n'Roll bullsh*t about stars who died too young.
Hopefully, while people are comforting her friends and family and celebrating her music, they'll also learn something from the way she died. Maybe there are some addicts out there who'll be shaken enough by this to get off drugs. Maybe there'll be some enablers out there, of the sort Amy Winehouse needed to function day-to-day, who'll say "no more," and try to save a life instead of helping to take it, one needle or one bottle at a time.
Life is, after all, for the living and hopefully some of them will learn something from the sad pointless way a woman, who could have had it all, surrendered the treasure life had given her.

'Kiss of Meth' backfires in cop car for men arrested on traffic violation
- From: news.com.au
- May 15, 2014
TWO men initially arrested on traffic violations got themselves in a whole lot more trouble when they tried to dispose of a secret stash of methamphetamine while handcuffed in the back seat of a police car.
What they didn't know was that all the police cars in Bartlesville — the little town in Oklahoma where they were caught — had just been kitted out with brand new dash cams that record audio.
"It's quite odd, especially the conversation before they have it and the fact they do it in the back of my car. It's very odd," Officer Cheyenne Lee told FOX 23.
While the men, Timothy Povlick and Derek Bock, wait in the back seat as officers search their car, Povlick can be seen with a white baggie poking out of his mouth.
Police will allege that he had three eightballs (one eightball is 3.5g) of methamphetamine inside his mouth.
The pair are heard on the video talking about how to dispose of the drugs, with Bock telling Povlick he doesn't want him to die by swallowing the whole lot himself.
So they agree to divide the stash and swallow half each.
"We're going to have to be gay for a second," one is heard telling the other.
"It's nasty bro, I'm telling you," the other replies.
"I know — do you want it?" his friend says.
"Try suck some of your saliva off of it and I will," the other responds.
What is now known as The Kiss of Meth ensues.
"They ended up swapping a kiss to exchange the baggies in order to try to keep them concealed so we wouldn't find them," Officer Lee said.
Police went through the video after the pair were taken to the jail.
Povlick ended up in hospital where he had his stomach pumped — an action which probably saved his life, officers said.
Police told FOX 23 the pair would have gotten away on lesser charges had the new technology not enabled them to hear what they were saying.
Both men were charged with possession of methamphetamine and destruction of evidence.

So DH and I are going to switch sides of the bed when LO arrives and for the first couple months, put a bassinet next to the bed so I have easy access to him during the night for nursing (not interested in a co-sleeper). But I've been envisioning scooping him up, nursing, putting him back, going back to sleep... but (and please forgive my inexperience w/ newborns), will he need his diaper changed after every feeding, or will he be (hopefully) so sleepy that he'll go back to sleep despite a dirty diaper? And even if he does go back to sleep, isn't it bad for his little tushy to leave him in a dirty diaper?
I feel silly that this hasn't occurred to me before. How often should I expect to be taking him across the hall for a diaper change during the night?

2006: The Year in Jazz
In the jazz world, 2006 was a year that defied a tidy little description. There was much going on, including the continuing efforts to rebuild New Orleans from the tragic and deadly aftermath of August 2005's Hurricane Katrina. Support initiatives for Crescent City musicians and their unfathomable losses continued all year. There seemed to be some New Orleans presence at virtually every major jazz festival. While a lot of musicians still couldn't go home to New Orleans, they were ambassadors for their history-rich city... ambassadors who could be found touring all over the world.
The New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival went on as scheduled in April and May, despite major logistical obstacles in and around the city. The festival did pare one day and one stage from its humongous schedule but reports from the Crescent City indicate the music was emotional and powerful. For many musicians still living elsewhere, it truly was a homecoming. For the city itself, it was a key step in bringing back hope for normalcy.
Trumpeter Wynton Marsalis organized a Katrina first anniversary event in New Orleans... including a "New Orleans: Rebuilding the Soul of America... One Year Later concert featuring Stevie Wonder, Yolanda Adams and Earth, Wind & Fire.
The Preservation Hall Jazz Band -the Crescent City ensemble that brings the exuberant art of New Orleans jazz to festivals near and farwas granted a 2006 Medal of Arts by the National Endowment for the Arts. The National Medal of Arts, established by Congress in 1984, is the highest award given to artists and arts patrons by the United States government, for those who have made extraordinary contributions to the creation, growth and support of the arts in the United States.
Preservation Hall, a tiny wooden musical gem in the heart of the New Orleans French Quarter, has had a mission of preserving classic New Orleans jazz. In the struggle to remain vibrant and help all genres of music rebuild in the city, the club this year began offering a late-night series of performances by bluesand funk-infused bands, as well as rock and bluegrass. Musical Director Ben Jaffe also set up a New Orleans Musicians Hurricane Relief Fund based at Preservation Hall with a goal of helping bring home and housing some of the estimated 1,200 displaced musicians, and create a new infrastructure for New Orleans music.
Brecker's welcome cameo -Tenor saxophonist Michael Brecker, who has been off the jazz scene for more than a year while battling a deadly bone marrow disease called MDS (myelodyplastic syndrome), made a surprise, cameo appearance in June with Herbie Hancock at Carnegie Hall in New York as part of the JVC Jazz Festival. His inspired and inspiring solo on Hancock's tune "One Finger Snap brought down the house. Word has it Brecker also has recorded material for a new CD to be released in 2007 on the Heads Up label.
Ponomarev's broken arm -Russian-American jazz musician Valery Ponomarev suffered a broken left arm in early September in a struggle with French airport police. It happened when he refused to relinquish his trumpet and flugelhorn case. It had already been tagged as carry-on luggage for an Air India flight from Paris to New York.
Digital inroads -Jazz is making great strides in the digital music world. The Blue Note label began releasing memorable portions of famous jazz tunes by Thelonious Monk, Herbie Hancock, Chet Baker, Art Blakey and others for sale as ringtones through most major cellular phone carriers. Similarly, several artists including Pat Metheny and Billy Taylor have begun podcasting as away to further distribute their music. Many musicians have also joined the myspace.com phenomenon to market their CDs and merchandise and keep in touch with fans.
Speaking your minds through music -Several jazz and blues artists teamed up to record a 15-track compilation of material that speaks out against the Bush administration in Washington. The Random Chance Records compilation is called Got the Impeach Bush/Cheney Blues. Participating artists included singers Bill Withers and Pyeng Threadgill, pianist Jason Lindner and guitarist Grant Green Jr.
There were other developments of note in the jazz world during the year:
The House That Trane Built -The Impulse record label marked its 45th anniversary with the publication of the book The House That Trane Built: The Story of Impulse Records by Ashley Kahn; the release of 12 Best-Of Impulse CDs; and the kickoff of an international tour by a McCoy Tyner-led All-Star Septet.
Minton's Redux -In May, Minton's Playhouse in Harlem reopened for the first time since 1974. The club of West 118th Street, once the dining room of the Cecil Hotel next door, was the venue where Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Charlie Christian and others began their development of the bebop style.
Playing and presenting jazz is taxing enough -In late July, New York Gov. George Pataki signed legislation eliminating the sales tax on admission to live performances in jazz clubs. Admission to such performances is now treated the same as admission to theatre, opera, ballet and concert performances, the tax on which was eliminated in the 1960s. Passage of the new law recognized jazz performances in smaller venues as an important part of the cultural and economic life of the state. Hank Jones, Jimmy Owens, Slide Hampton, Skip Jackson and Tony Jefferson performed what may have been the first ever jazz concert in the halls of the New York General Assembly in support of the legislation.
And the Grammys go to... -Jazz-related Grammy winners in 2006 included the Pat Metheny Group's The Way Up [Nonesuch] for Best Contemporary Jazz Album; Dianne Reeves' Good Night, And Good Luck [Concord Jazz] for Best Jazz Vocal Album; Sonny Rollins' "Why Was I Born? from Without A Song -The 9/11 Concert [Milestone] for Best Jazz Instrumental Solo; the Wayne Shorter Quartet's Beyond The Sound Barrier [Verve] for Best Jazz Instrumental Album, Individual or Group; the Dave Holland Big Band's Overtime [Sunnyside/Dare2] for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album; Eddie Palmieri's Listen Here!

Phil woods was named alto saxophonist of the year. Bill Frisell took guitar honors. Kurt Elling was named male vocalist of the year and Cassandra Wilson was female vocalist of the year. Pianist Vijay Iyer was named rising star artist of the year.

Harmolodic house calls -Free jazz saxophonist/composer Ornette Coleman received an honorary doctorate of music degree from the Berklee College of Music in January 2006. Asked how it felt to be a doctor, Coleman said: "I need a doctor. This university of knowledge that we call music is represented by the quality of Berklee," said Coleman. "I am very happy and honored today to be standing here experiencing something I never believed I would achieve."
Posthumous plaudits -The 90th annual Pulitzer Prizes, awarded in April, included a posthumous Special Citation for Thelonious Monk "for a body of distinguished and innovative musical composition that has had a significant and enduring impact on the evolution of jazz. Monk was the first jazz musician and composer to receive the award since Duke Ellington was honored in 1999, the centennial of his birth. In addition to Monk and Ellington... only three other jazz musicians have been awarded the Pulitzer: George Gershwin, Scott Joplin and Wynton Marsalis.
Liquid honors, too -Monk has also received some strong bottled honors. California-based North Coast Brewing Co. is producing a new abbey-styled ale called Brother Thelonius. It is being released in association with the Thelonius Monk Institute of Jazz. North Coast is making a contribution for every case sold to support jazz education. Says North Coast sales manager Doug Moody: "It's time to remind the world that here in the U.S., we have a monk of our own."

PICASSO. HIS LATE WORK. A tribute to the memory of Jacqueline
From June 18th until November 20th 2016
Open daily from 9 am until 7 pm
As a tribute to Jacqueline Picasso, who passed away 30 years ago on October 15th 1986, The Pierre Gianadda Foundation presents an extraordinary choice of paintings, engravings, ceramics and sculptures, casting a new perspective on Picasso's late work. Fascinating and enlightening, the last twenty years of Picasso's career are an anthem dedicated to love, life and creation. The exhibition shows how Jacqueline, whom he met for the first time in 1952 and married in 1961, was permanently present in his work. His last muse and wife, she was his only model during all the years she stood by his side.
For Picasso it is the beginning of a new life and an unprecedented pictorial impulse which he will develop in different places: first, in the villa La Californie situated on the heights of Cannes (1955-1958); then, in the huge castle of Vauvenargues (1958-1961), near Aix-en-Provence where Cézanne lived and painted, and, finally, in the country house Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins (1961-1973).
Jacqueline's care and youth boosted Picasso's rhythm in creation. He painted her often, with an endless neck and her hieratic profile as in Jacqueline aux fleurs, 1954, or in a perfect figurative style, as in Jacqueline aux jambes repliées, 1954 ; her soul is alive in his work and his studio, as one can see it in L'Atelier de la Californie, 1956. Picasso's portraits go beyond any physical resemblance to attain, in a sort of metaphorical poetry, his models' full personality.
During the first ten years of this period, Picasso, known as one of the most modern painters of his time, revisited masterpieces from the past: Delacroix (Les Femmes d'Alger, 1954-1955), Velázquez (Las Meninas, 1957), Manet (Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe, 1959-1961), Poussin and David (L'Enlèvement des Sabines, 1963). Picasso recreated surprisingly new masterpieces, totally turned away from their original purpose, sometimes with strong and expressive lines and colours, often with an abstract treatment of space.
Picasso addressed another topic after 1963: the painter and his model. During this single year Jacqueline is represented 160 times in the artist's work. Subtle modulations allow him either to worship or blaspheme his muse – or simply test her patience. Picasso said about Jacqueline: "She has the gift to become a painting herself, to an unimaginable degree".
During the last ten years in Mougins, Picasso focussed more and more on the essential. He explored the archetypical figure of the woman (the nude), the couple (kisses and embraces), the man (musketeer and man with a pipe) and the aging painter. The ultimate works were shown in two important exhibitions at the Pope's Palace in Avignon: the first one was held in 1970 and organized by Yvonne and Christian Zervos; the second one, in 1973, after the artist death, was composed of works he had selected himself, with a preface by René Char for the catalogue. If certain critics, at that time, spoke about "senility, smearing, impotence", Picasso's late work is today considered unanimously as being one of the most captivating aspects of his creation.
Beside the paintings, the exhibition also reveals the talent of Picasso in other forms of expression:
Picasso and engraving
Engraving occupies a major part in Picasso's work. He used different techniques with great skill, carrying them almost to perfection, mastering with liberty and virtuosity an impressive variety of printing processes. All of his themes are treated here: painter and his model, nudes, portraits, mythological beings, bullfighting. Etchings, lithographs, linocuts are exhibited.
Picasso and sculpture
During summer 1905 Picasso began to deal with sculpture. He discovered tribal art and masks, which have produced a determining shock in his work, in the ethnographical museum of Trocadéro. By assembling objects in 1912, he underlined their ambiguity. In the 1920s, he renewed sculpture while exploring the possibilities of forged iron, sometimes painted afterwards. Picasso's creative boldness still stood out at the end of his life with cut, folded and painted steel sheets (Femme au chapeau, 1961 and Tête de femme [Jacqueline], 1962), figuring among the most astonishing works of this period.
Picasso and ceramic
In 1946, Picasso was living in Golfe-Juan, on the French Riviera. In Vallauris, at the annual pottery exhibition, he met Suzanne and Georges Ramié, who opened to him their ceramic factory. Since 1947, he had been working there regularly, transforming pieces from their original use with his prodigious imagination: a bottle would become an insect, a vase a bird or a faun. Lovely portraits are exhibited: Portrait de Jacqueline, 1956, Portrait de Jacqueline au foulard, 1956. Generally speaking, Picasso's vocation as a ceramist is largely documented here.
The exhibition shows, thematically and chronologically, more than 110 pieces from private and public collections, from museums known all over the world (musée Picasso, Paris; Musée national d'art moderne-Centre Pompidou, Paris; Museu Picasso, Barcelona….), and from the collection of the artist's family, making evident the diversity and importance of Picasso's later ouput.
