I was distressed to learn that Jim Wilder passed away in December. Jim had promoted and hosted bluegrass festivals in Charlotte and Milan, Michigan, for many years. I'm gonna miss him.
Over the years I figure I spent a hundred days or so at the Charlotte show, which billed itself as "Michigan's Oldest Continuously-Held Bluegrass Festival." Wilder was the festival's third proprietor.
A partial list of bands we've seen and heard in Charlotte would begin with Ralph Stanley and the Clinch Mountain Boys, and would continue with Jim & Jesse, the Osborne Brothers, and Jimmy Martin. We've heard the Bluegrass Cardinals, the Seldom Scene, the New Coon Creek Girls, and the Dry Branch Fire Squad. Rhonda Vincent's been a regular of late, as have IIIrd Tyme Out, Charlie Sizemore, the Grascals, Audie Blaylock, and Del McCoury. Dailey and Vincent showed up one year; so did Lou Reed, and so did Dale Ann Bradley. Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver performed here from time to time. And Jim's predecessor John Morris brought us Wade Mainer, a recording pioneer who pre-dated even Bill Monroe as a radio star.
Of course, Bill and his (late-model) Bluegrass Boys graced the Charlotte stage for several years.
This list of highlights doesn't begin to exhaust the range of talent Wilder and his predecessors brought to our community in forty years of festivals.
Looks like the Milan festival will be held this summer, but Charlotte's probably going to be scrubbed. Let's hope it's a short break, rather than an ending. [See Below]
Jim's health's been obviously problematical for the past few years, and I made it a point to thank him last June for bringing a weekend of joy into my life every summer. He credited Faye, claiming "she did all the work." So I thanked her, too.
Gonna miss you, guy. Thanks again.
Lara Trump speaking with attendees at the 2022 Young Women's Leadership Summit hosted by Turning Point USA at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas.
Mingle Media TV and Red Carpet Report host, Lee Allport, were invited to cover the television movie premiere of "Sofia The First: Once Upon a Princess" and the launch of the Sofia The First illustrated storybook on the lavender carpet at Walt Disney Studios Main Theatre.
Disney introduces a little girl princess named Sofia who (voiced by Ariel Winter) is an average girl whose life suddenly transforms when her mother, Queen Miranda (voiced by Sara Ramirez), marries the king and she becomes a princess. Sofia soon discovers that looking like a princess isn't all that difficult, but displaying honesty, loyalty, courage, independence, compassion and grace is what makes one truly royal. Helping Sofia in her journey are the three headmistresses of Royal Prep Academy - Fauna, Flora and Merryweather (the beloved fairies seen in Disney's classic "Sleeping Beauty") and royal steward, Baileywick (voiced by Tim Gunn), as well as a group of cute woodland creatures led by wise-talking rabbit, Clover (voiced by Wayne Brady). The enchanting animated Disney Junior television movie for the whole family will air November 18 on Disney Channel and November 22 on Disney Junior.

...eventually they were friendly hosts. But not at first; the story:
When I went for the hike up the Shui Jing Po hill I came to a very secluded depression where a path to the foot of the hill ran via a farm. When the lady on the right saw me approaching her she was really terrified in seeing this white stranger. She picked up a bamboo stick to defend herself and backed away. I was rather shocked by her reaction; people have never been afraid of me before or had seen me as a menace. I tried to explain I was just passing through and pointed to the top of the hill to indicate that I wanted to climb it. Very reluctantly she showed me where the path continued on. She backed away again when I extended my hand in trying to break the ice.
Later, when I got back from the hill I saw her again at the farm. But now she had changed; she indicated that I should come in for tea. When I noticed that she wasn't terrified anymore I did come in and sat down. First she brought me a bowl of water and a rag to clean my legs that had bloody scratches from the thorn bushes on the slope of the hill, and then she gave me some small peaches. Later there was tea. We spent a pleasant 15 minutes or so. The pictures I showed her made her laugh. Grandma on the left was having a good time too. I may have been one of the first Westerners they have encountered.

Ambassador Daniel Shapiro hosted Professor Robert Mnookin, Director, Harvard Negotiation Research Project, for a Distinguished American Speaker program at his residence on December 9. Prof. Mnookin spoke about his new book, Bargaining With the Devil: When to Negotiate, When to Fight, engaging an audience of 100, which included many Israeli officials who were involved in Israel’s peace negotiations with her neighbors, as well as professors and students of law, conflict resolution, and negotiation, and Wexner Israel program alumni. Following this program, Professor Mnookin conducted a special workshop for a group of Arab and Jewish high school students from Amal Taibe and Amal Lady Davis in Tel Aviv. The workshop was a rare and exciting opportunity for Israeli high school students to meet a world renowned Professor from one of the most prestigious universities in the world. Even though this was a new level of audience for Professor Mnookin, he enjoyed interacting with the young students while demonstrating various negotiation techniques and applicable methods for teaching mutually satisfying agreements in all facets of life. The workshop also gave the group an opportunity to meet with a distinguished academic and practice new and creative communication skills in English. This ‘exceptional’ workshop was adjunct to a larger program supported by a small PD grant which brought together 180 Arab and Jewish students from 6 high schools to learn negotiation skills.

AKWASI KYEREME & OGHENE KOLOGBO
Afrobeat meets Reggae, Funk & Soul
(Ghana, South Africa, Togo, Benin, Cameroun, Congo, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, Germany)
Akwasi Kyereme’s music career began in 1973 in Nigeria. There he was singing in bands, playing Afro beat in the style of Alpha Blondy or Fela Kuti.
Born in Kumasi, Ashanti – Ghana, son of a chief and a Ghanaian singer, Akwasi worked as a jockey, tailor and hairdresser before he finally sacrificed in music.
With Fela Kuti Akwasi worked together for many years sewing many stage outfits for Fela Kuti’s legendary live shows. Soon, he joined Reggae, which he combined with his African roots. In Yaam, Berlin’s hottest reggae location, Akwasi and his Band ‘Root B Tama’ were playing and the club was sold out.
They performed in the famous clubs of the city: Haus der Kulturen der Welt, TU-Mensa, ICC, Böcklerpark, Huxley’s, and others. In Germany he perforned in Hamburg (Markthalle), Köln, Düsseldorf (LaSalsa), Potsdam, Cottbus, and not to forget is the annual Chiemsee Reggae Festival.

The Brazilian DJ Garrincha comments soccer games and animates any party regardless of the outcome. On the river Spree, with chill atmosphere, with a youthful and alternative audience. Ideal to hang out with a cold beer with friends. “- Berlinda

Playing host to the rescheduled Foo Fighters concert at Wembley (that was cancelled after frontman Dave Grohl broke his leg falling off stage at a show in Gothenburg, Sweden), the National Bowl in Milton Keynes came alive on Sunday, September 6, 2015 with the sound of 65,000 screaming fans. Following sets from rock duo Royal Blood and the eclectic propo-punk icon Iggy Pop, the Foos knew they had to deliver. From the moment the curtain sucked into a black hole vortex to the end of the show, it was obvious it was going to be one hell of a night to remember. Debra, Karl and I had arrived relatively early for the show and, being among the first to enter the MK Bowl, were offered "Inner Pit" passes. Issued on a first-come-first-serve basis, these gave fenced-off access to the stage and were an excellent surprise. We had a great view of the day's action and I was well positioned for photographs. "All My Life" opened the two and a half hour set, with Grohl spending the entire show seated on a most gloriously over-the-top throne, designed by Grohl himself and adorned by guitar necks. It transported the front-man up and down the runway, and was in itself a crowd pleaser! I have wanted to see the Foo Fighters for about two decades - and desperate to do so since "Wasting Light"- and they did not disappoint. A shredding version of "White Limo" alone justified the ticket price, and the rest was a wonderful (and sometimes nostalgic) tour through their back-catalogue. All in all, it was a triumphant, heart-warming singalong set that showed why, for so many, the Foo Fighters have been the soundtrack to the last two decades. Here's the Foo Fighters' set list for the Milton Keynes "Broken Leg" concert.
If I was desperate to see the Foo Fighters, I was absolutely aching to see 69 year old rock legend, Iggy Pop. I narrowly missed one of his gigs in Amsterdam at the end of 1978 and, after this initial disappointment, Iggy stayed on my Bucket List through the late-80's in London, the 90's in Prague and the naughties in the UK. When he was in town, I was always travelling, had other commitments or just had bad luck (i.e. the cancellation of the Foo's concert at Wembley in June where Iggy was on the supporting bill). Well, I finally got to see James Newell Osterberg, Jr. in full, topless, action in Milton Keynes on a fine evening in September 2015! Iggy brought his old school punk snarl to the party, prompting mass singalongs to classic tunes, some of which he penned with his old mate David Bowie in Berlin in the 70's. If I'm still as active as Iggy when I'm almost 70, I'll be more than happy! He made fine use of the runway before him, skipping, kicking, twisting and turning as only Iggy can. He took a breather every now and then, but Iggy still has more energy than any new breed act you care to mention. Fucking hell - he's the man that wrote "Lust for Life"! The snot-noses in the audience didn't know what hit them :-) FYI, here's the Iggy Pop's set list for the night.
A wonderful, sunny day and balmy evening with my family, and a fine way to celebrate the 32nd anniversary of my first date with my future-wife on September 7, 1983.

Durant les cinq dernières années de guerre en Syrie, il a été estimé que plus de 220000 personnes ont été tuées et environ 12 millions de réfugiés ont un besoin urgent d’assistance humanitaire. Certains sont encore dans le pays et d’autres se sont enfuis au delà des frontières. La pire crise humanitaire contemporaine selon certaines organisations. Nous avons décidé d’organiser une série de concerts bénéfices pour prendre conscience et aider les réfugiés syriens.
Nous nous rassemblons aussi pour reconnaître que le militarisme n’est pas la solution et que les bombardements occidentaux n’arrêteront pas le conflit. Le Canada doit non seulement arrêterles bombardements en Syrie et en Iraq, mais aussi dénoncer le fait de consacrer des ressources financières majeures à la continuation de la militarisation du conflit, ce qui inclut l’envoi de conseillers militaires. Comme l’histoire nous l’a déjà montré, du Vietnam à l’Iraq, bombarder les gens ne les sauve pas.
Tout les fonds reçus au concert de ce soir seront donnés directement à un activiste éprouvé sur le terrain, à Beyrouth, au Liban. cet activiste est un allié et un ami du collectif Montréalais Tadamon ! (tadamon.ca/). Les fonds de solidarité seront utilisés pour acheter des fournitures hivernales (couvertures/vêtements chaud) qui seront directement distribuées aux communautés de refugiées Syrienne proche de la région de Baalbek au Liban située dans la vallée de Beqaa proche de la frontière syrienne. Les réfugiés les plus économiquement marginalisés se sont installés dans cette région car voyager dans des centres urbains come Beyrouth est dispendieux. Les organisateurs et supporteurs de ce concert ont déjà eu l’expérience d’amener de l’aide directe spécifiquement à ces communautés syriennes avec cet activiste en particulier à Beyrouth. Ceci étant dit, il y a déjà un processus d’établit. Merci d’avance pour votre support et solidarité.

Since the beginning of the war, which started 5 years ago in Syria, it has been estimated that 220 000 people were killed and more than 12-million refugees are in need of urgent humanitarian assistance, whether they still remain in the country or have escaped across the borders. Some organizations have called it the worst humanitarian crisis of our time, so we have decided to start a series of events to bring awareness and aid to help.
We gather here also to recognize that militarism isn’t the solution and that western military bombs will not stop the conflict. Canada must not only stop sending bombs to Syria and Iraq, but also speak out against the lending of major financial resources to the continued militarization of the conflict, this includes sending military advisers, as we have learned from history, from Vietnam to Iraq, bombing people will not save them.
All funds raised at this concert will go directly to a trusted activist in Beirut, Lebanon, who is an ally and friend to the Tadamon! collective (tadamon.ca/) in Montréal. The solidarity funds will buy winter supplies (blankets / warm clothes) and will be distributed directly to the Syrian refugee communities close to Baalbek, Lebanon located in the Beqaa Valley close to the Syrian border. this is where some of the most economically marginalized refugees have settled because traveling to bigger urban centers like Beirut is expensive. The organizers and supporters of this concert have had prior experience in organizing similar direct aid efforts for these specific Syrian communities with this specific activist in Beirut, therefore there is an established process. Thank you in advance for your support and solidarity!

jérémi roy : depuis 2005, Jérémi est actif professionnellement dans le domaine de la composition et de la performance musicale. ayant dirigé ses propres ensembles et accompagné bon nombres d'artistes et groupes, il a su extraire le psychédélisme des musiques populaires occidentales autant que la transe des musiques traditionnelles de l’Orient et du Maghreb. ses deux stages en musique turque (2010 et 2012) à İstanbul l’ont amené à adopter un système de composition modal non-tempéré, le tout accompagné d’une habitude de son enfance d’utiliser des bandes magnétiques et magnétophones comme moteurs du hasard contrôlé. or, son travail solo se veut une synthèse de ces éléments et a été présenté en mai 2015 au festival RE:FLUX à Moncton et dans le cadre d'évènement ponctuels Howl! Arts à Montréal en 2014 et 2015.
The Royal Host Motel of Las Cruces, New Mexico is one of the few 1960's-era lodging establishments in the city to have kept and maintained its big wacky sign.
Other good signs include ... the Town House Motel across the street, the Century 21 Motel up on North Main, and the Sands Motel on South Main.
The property looks fairly well-maintained, too.
It's located across the street from the a former early-generation Motel 6 (now the Budget Inn) and the city's first Holiday Inn (now the Western Inn) on W. Picacho Ave.
