(from wikipedia.com)
Julian Edwin "Cannonball" Adderley (September 15, 1928 – August 8, 1975) was a jazz alto saxophonist of the hard bop era of the 1950s and 1960s. Originally from Tampa, Florida, Adderley moved to New York in the mid-1950s. His nickname derived originally from "cannibal," an honorific title imposed on him by high school colleagues as a tribute to his fast eating capacity.
His educational career was long established prior to teaching applied instrumental music classes at Dillard High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Cannonball moved to Tallahassee, Florida when his parents obtained teaching positions at Florida A&M University. Both Cannonball and brother Nat played with Ray Charles when Charles lived in Tallahassee during the early 1940s.[ Cannonball was a local legend in Florida until he moved to New York City in 1955, where he lived in Corona, Queens.
By the end of 1960s, Adderley's playing began to reflect the influence of the electric jazz avant-garde, and Miles Davis' experiments on the album Bitches Brew. On his albums from this period, such as Accent on Africa (1968) and The Price You Got to Pay to Be Free (1970), he began doubling on soprano saxophone, showing the influence of John Coltrane and Wayne Shorter.[citation needed] In that same year, his quintet appeared at the Monterey Jazz Festival in California, and a brief scene of that performance was featured in the 1971 psychological thriller Play Misty for Me, starring Clint Eastwood.[citation needed] In 1975 he also appeared (in an acting role alongside Jose Feliciano and David Carradine) in the episode "Battle Hymn" in the third season of the TV series Kung Fu.
Joe Zawinul's composition "Cannon Ball" (recorded on Weather Report's album Black Market) is a tribute to his former leader.[3] Pepper Adams and George Mraz dedicated the composition "Julian" on the 1975 Pepper Adams album (also called "Julian") days after Cannonball's death.
Songs made famous by Adderley and his bands include "This Here" (written by Bobby Timmons), "The Jive Samba," "Work Song" (written by Nat Adderley), "Mercy, Mercy, Mercy" (written by Joe Zawinul) and "Walk Tall" (written by Zawinul, Marrow and Rein). A cover version of Pops Staples' "Why (Am I Treated So Bad)?" also entered the charts.
Adderley was initiated as an honorary member of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia fraternity (Gamma Theta chapter, University of North Texas, '60, & Xi Omega chapter, Frostburg State University, '70) and Alpha Phi Alpha (Beta Nu chapter, Florida A&M University).
Adderley died of a stroke in 1975. He was buried in the Southside Cemetery, Tallahassee, Florida. Later that year he was inducted into the Down Beat Jazz Hall of Fame. . ."

(from http://www.businessweek.com/news/2012-08-13/ryan-farther-reaching-than-romney-on-taxes-without-detail)
". . . Yet Ryan, 42, goes further than Romney, who would cut
individual tax rates by 20 percent, drop the corporate tax rate
to 25 percent and eliminate the estate tax and alternative
minimum tax. In his 2010 “Roadmap for America’s Future,” Ryan
proposed eliminating taxes on corporate income, estates,
dividends, interest and capital gains. He would simplify the
individual income tax system into a two-rate structure topping
out at 25 percent and impose what is effectively an 8.5 percent
value-added tax.
“You could not do that without substantially shifting the
tax burden to the middle class and below” and reducing tax
burdens on affluent households, said Edward Kleinbard, a tax law
professor at the University of Southern California. “Those are
just inescapable facts.”. . . "

'. . .In fact, Ryan has a voting record to reflect every anti-LGBT position that Romney has taken. Here’s a recap:
Banning state-level same-sex marriage Supporting a federal constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage Defending discrimination against same-sex couples (Defense of Marriage Act) Ryan voted to limit funding to the Justice Department that might be used to oppose DOMA by the Obama administration Opposing federal non-discrimination protections-voted to kill the Employment Non-Discrimination Act in 2007-then, ultimately voted for it. Opposing repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell Opposing hate crimes protection. . . '
[For those of the 'right' persuasion who profess to be "Christian", beat these quotes out of your bible. ]
John 13:34-35 ESV A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
1 Timothy 5:8 ESV But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
1 John 3:17-18 ESV But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.
Philippians 2:4 ESV Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Ephesians 4:32 ESV Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
Matthew 25:40 ESV And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
Galatians 6:9-10 ESV And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.
Matthew 25:31-46 ESV “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, ...
James 1:27 ESV Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.
John 3:16 ESV “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
Matthew 25:40 ESV And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’

Luke 4:16-21 ESV And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.” And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. . .

AMBIENCE & WINE
For the Dog Days piano prelude this week, JIMBOW will be tickling the ivories, or in this case, the plastics, and utilizing a short length of Bunsen burner tubing to add his Melodica to the mix … As usual, come early to find good seats for the evening and to catch the entire prelude. You can come upstairs at 7:15 pm (maybe 5 minutes or so earlier than that if Rob is ready; performers can come up when they arrive).
For three-song cameo performers this week, we have some blues from the fabulous McTELL BROTHERS, J. KOLB from Annapolis, and Todd’s Pick this week is DAN KENNY. As time permits, we will be also hearing from the usual crew; poet JOHN HOLLY reciting his poems between other performers, and TODD C. WALKER himself, who also takes photos, helps emcee and helps run sound. TOMY WRIGHT is here this Monday, too, so we can expect some Tomy songs towards the end of the evening….
MISTER RON GOAD has come down from the mountain, so he and Tomy will be creating the wall of percussion that we have come to love and expect… Singing in front of these two gentlemen is like sliding down the laundry chute at the Ritz-Carlton, from the penthouse to the basement, and landing in one of those large, padded wicker baskets they have… It’s an exciting ride!
Ron is relieved to be back in civilization and circulation again; he managed to deal with two problems at once. He invited his overly-aggressive bookie to a weekend camping and fishing in the woods to make peace with him, and presented him with the cash that was owed together with a large bag of Snickers bars… There was a bit of a ruckus in the night, and in the morning neither the bookie nor the Snickers bars could be found… Ron drove home.
If you feel like some acoustic music this afternoon, to fill the void where synchronized swimming, etc. used to be, why not drop by Todd C. Walker’s Sunday Songwriters Songfest at Frederick Coffee Company around 4 pm? Today’s songwriters are the terrific Russ Haire, the ubiquitous T. Edwin Doss and the wonderful Woody Lissauer (who creates many musical multiples of himself – you’ll think you are listening to the Beach Boys and the Beatles at the same time…)! This coming Thursday, also at FCC, our own John Holly hosts another poetry evening, 7 pm – 9 pm – all are welcome to listen or to read!
Ex-Frederick singer-songwriter, raconteur and all-round cheerful person David Morreale is hosting a new event at Mick’s American Bistro – The Hardcore Troubador’s Tuesday Night Social Club and Open Mic, 7 pm – 10 pm. I’m playing there this week – come and check it out! David had a song challenge – to write a song about nothing – which I’ve done, so I’ll be singing that, among other sparkling gems from my back catalogue… Should be fun!
Please come out and join us at Brewer’s Alley this Monday to hear JEFF TALMADGE, plus our terrific line-up of cameo performers! We’ll have another great evening of music in Frederick’s best listening room!. . . )"
I'll be there next week.

Shouldn't the PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE have the vision for the country and the Vice Presidential candidate SHARE it?
". . . I don't think I have anything for you on the V.P. running mate. Other
than I-- I certainly expect to have a person that has a strength of
character, a vision for the country, that, that adds something to the political discourse about the direction of the country. I
mean, I happen to believe this is a defining election for America; that
we're going to be voting for what kind of America we're going to have. . . "
