The information was released in two reports: “Cancer Statistics 2015,” published in “CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians,” and its companion, the consumer publication, “Cancer Facts & Figures 2015.” Each year, the ACS compiles the most recent data on cancer incidence, mortality, and survival based on incidence data from the National Cancer Institute, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Center for Health Statistics. Many factors have contributed to reduced cancer deaths in America, including advances in cancer prevention and early detection and treatment. Clearly, medical–imaging technol- ogy has been at the forefront of early detection and prolonging and saving lives. Various studies have linked the use of imaging examinations to longer life expect- ancy, declines in mortality, less need for exploratory surgery, fewer hospital admis- sions, and shorter lengths of hospital stays, according to research by the American College of Radiology and the Neiman Health Policy Institute, with other organizations also providing data for the report. Locally, one longtime business that special- izes in providing full medical–imaging services has seen firsthand the value of diagnostics, from both the patient and the physician perspective, and has internal data to support BBN photo — Adrienne B.

Furthermore, the entire subject of the effects of rock on a listening audience varies considerably from listener to listener. The teen-ager just likes, the sound of the music and the feelings that the music brings out in him, while the adult still thinks of rock as a lot of noise no matter how many magazine articles they read or TV programs they see.

My early musical heroes were Dion, Paul Anka, Neil Sedaka, Little Eva, Ray Charles, Chubby Checker, Gene Pitney, Roy Orbison, The Four Tops and, Stevie Wonder…. My parents were also music fans.

  • Jefferson's Tree of Liberty 9/3/08 2:17 AM
    Music Review: Jefferson Starship - Jefferson's Tree Of Liberty 9/3/08 2:17 AM Blogcritics is an online magazine, a community of writers and readers from around the globe. Publisher: Eric Olsen REVIEW Music Review: Jefferson Starship - Jefferson's Tree Of Liberty Written by David Bowling Published August 31, 2008 Life is good as founding member Paul Kantner remains in control of The Jefferson Starship. Long time cohort David Freiberg is still around as is guitarist Mark Aguilar. Cathy Richardson is now the lead female vocalist. She starred in the off Broadway production about Janis Joplin’s life. Richardson’s voice is powerful and pure but is closer to a Grace Slick sound than Joplin’s, which should come as no surprise. Even Marty Balin joins the Starship for a couple of tunes. Jefferson’s Tree Of Liberty finds the Starship traveling in a new and unique musical direction. Succinctly put, this is a folk album. Songs such as “Pastures Of Plenty” by Woody Guthrie, “Chimes Of Freedom” by Bob Dylan, and “I Ain’t Marching Anymore” by Phil Ochs are all presented in classic vocal form. Kantner and The Jefferson Starship can’t quite escape their rock ‘n’ roll roots as the instrumental background veers from the classic folk formula. Think the Weavers in rock mode. The first track sets the tone for most of the album. The old Weavers tune, “Wasn’t That A Time,” features the voices of Kantner, Freiberg, and Richardson. Richardson provides a wonderful balance on most of the harmonies contained on the album.

Red House Records is pleased to announce the April 5, 2011 release of Steady As She Goes, the first new album in twenty years from the legendary Hot Tuna. Featuring Rock & Roll Hall of Famers and Jefferson Airplane founding members Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen, the band celebrates over four decades of playing together. Now, with the release of their Red House debut, they prove that they remain one of the most innovative bands in American music. Why did it take so long for Hot Tuna to record a new album? “Well, it just worked out that way,” Kaukonen says. “Hot Tuna never quit playing. The moment just wasn’t right before; now it is, and we have a great project to show for it.” Returning to upstate New York decades after Kaukonen and Casady first played Woodstock, they went into Levon Helm’s studio over the winter to record twelve new tracks with mandolin player Barry Mitterhoff and drummer Skoota Warner (Cyndi Lauper, Matisyahu, Santana). Working with famed producer Larry Campbell (who Kaukonen worked with on his last solo album River of Time) the band plugged in for the electric Hot Tuna album that fans have been waiting for. Taking no prisoners, the band tears into it, kicking off with the rocking Americana number “Angel of Darkness” (co- written by Kaukonen and Campbell).

  • Addio a Paul Kantner, “The Brain” Dei Jefferson Airplane
    Addio a Paul Kantner, “the brain” dei Jefferson Airplane È morto a 74 anni il chitarrista Paul Kantner, uno dei fondatori della band Jefferson Airplane. Lo riporta il San Francisco Chronicle. Protagonista della scena musicale della west coast americana, Kantner è stato stroncato giovedì 28 gennaio da un attacco di cuore a San Francisco, la città in cui era nato il 17 marzo 1941. Chi era Paul Kantner? Ecco cosa scrive sul sito ufficiale dei Jefferson Airplane Greg Gildersleeve (1998). Anche se non ha mai scritto o cantato come voce leader nessun brano di successo, Paul Kantner ha avuto un impatto maggiore di qualsiasi altro membro sui Jefferson Airplane/Starship. È suo il record della più lunga, ininterrotta appartenenza (19 anni) alla band, ed è stato a volte l’unico membro delle origini della band presente in eventi con JA. Il suo interesse per la fantascienza l’ha portato a trasformare i Jefferson Airplane nei Jefferson Starship, e, in tutto questo, ha presieduto alla democrazia sregolata e talvolta disordinata della band. Se Marty Balin era l’anima della band, e Grace Slick il suo volto, Paul Kantner potrebbe esserne considerato, the brain, il cervello. | 1 Addio a Paul Kantner, “the brain” dei Jefferson Airplane L’unico nativo di San Francisco tra gli iniziatori degli Airplane/Starship, Paul Lorin Kantner nasce il 17 marzo 1941, da Paul S. e Cora Lee (Fortier) Kantner. Paul aveva un fratellastro e una sorellastra parecchio più grandi. Quando Paul aveva otto anni, sua madre morì; e, ricorderà in seguito, non gli fu consentito di partecipare al suo funerale, ma fu portato al circo.

  • O Matter Their Level of Achievement Or Fame, Most Guitar
    a blues album, Fire Red Moon, on the Blind Pig label. A mix of originals and covers, it’s highlighted by “Lie To Me,” with lead vocals by Noah Hunt, of the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band. There are also renditions of Robert Johnson’s “Crossroads,” an instrumental take on Albert King’s “Born Under A Bad Sign,” a cover of Muddy Waters’ “Rollin’ And Tumblin’,” and originals that reflect Chaquico’s time spent listening to Cream, Hendrix, ZZ Top, and other acts. What prompted you to pick up a guitar? You were right in their demographic wheelhouse when the Beatles hit the U.S. I was just start- ing to play guitar at the time. My first instrument was the accordion, and I’ve heard that Clapton played one... o matter their level of achievement or fame, most I guess it was p o p u l a r guitar players spent time “in the trenches” – jamming with our in garage bands, playing clubs, maybe getting to tour parents; regionally. But Craig Chaquico didn’t kick it much my dad p l a y e d with kids of questionable talent or inclination. Instead, by accor- the time he was 17, Chaquico (pronounced cha-KEY-so) was dion and jamming with the likes of Jorma Kaukonen, Jack Casady, sax, but I gravitated and the Grateful Dead. • Growing up 100 miles from San to guitar be- Francisco, Chaquico took to the cause of the city’s music scene at a young Beatles, and age. “We’d pile in a van and go there wasn’t a lot of accordion music to concerts at Winterland, get on the radio (laughs)! home at four in the morning, get grounded,” he recalled, laughing.
