Nty and the People Who Shape It Platte Community Platte County and the people who shape it Champions Keepsake Edition ow - 2019 is coming to an end. It didn’t feel that long ago like I was wit- nessing the start of spring, and then in what felt like a blink of an eye, we’re counting the days to Christmas and New Year’s Day. In early 2019, The Telegram started thinking about new and fun ways to Whighlight the people who make our community. Out of those conversations, “Commu- nity Champions” was born. Each week since April we have published in-depth human-interest profiles of people who live in Platte County and, are in a way, advocates for our community. We’ve come up with candidates ourselves, but have also gotten good ideas from readers. This special edition, the second “Community Champions” keepsake we’ve produced, recaps stories that published in The Telegram each week between early August and mid- October (profiles 15-28 in the series). Earlier this year, we published the first installment (profiles 1-14). Our plan is to publish these special editions every few months asthe 15) Jeff Gokie series continues. 25) Karina Perez Shout out to our advertisers for believing in community journalism and sponsoring good news. If you have ideas for profiles, send an email to [email protected]. Please include background and contact information. We’ll certainly consider them. Thanks to all our Champions who were willing to share their stories and put them- selves out there! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

  • Chester Bennington's Sidoprojekt Dead by Sunrise Släpper Debutalbumet "Out of Ashes"
    2009-08-04 08:03 CEST Chester Bennington's sidoprojekt Dead By Sunrise släpper debutalbumet "Out Of Ashes". Chester Bennington är i vanliga fall sångare i ett av världens främsta rockband, Linkin Park. Nu släpper han debutalbumet "Out Of Ashes" med sitt andra band "Dead By Sunrise". Albumet släpps till hösten via Warner Bros. Records. "Ouf Of Ashes" består av Ryan Shuck (gitarr), Amir Derakh (bas), Brandon Belsky (trummor) och Chester Bennington (sång). Albumet "Out Of Ashes" spelades in i Los Angeles, Howard Benson har producerat. Han har tidigare jobbat med band som Motorhead och My Chemical Romance. Låtarna på "Out Of Ashes" började ta form när Linkin Park hade en ledig period innan de började spela in dubbelplatina albumet "Minutes To Midnight". Chester berättar själv att han skrev en del låtar som kändes och lät riktigt bra, men det var inte i linje med hur Linkin Park låter. "They were darker and moodier than anything I'd come up with for the band. So I decided to work on them on my own rather than turn them over and have them transformed into Linkin Park tracks." Bennington kallar Dead By Sunrise's låtar för mörkare, sexigare och mer personlig än någonting han skrivit förr. Hip-hop referenserna är borta och Bennington's röst får en ny framtoning på "Out Of Ashes". Bennington var även själv involverad i hela inspelningsprocessen och är mycket nöjd med resultatet Albumet "Out Of Ashes" släpps i höst! http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=6129 9226 Warner Music International, a leading company in national and international repertoire operates through numerous international affiliates and licensees in more than 50 countries.
