Continued - see Page 4 Commodore Kevin Witherell Comments Page 2 Greetings Boat Club Members, September was a great month at the Club, as we were able to open up the inside, on a limited basis, and we were able to provide some fantastic entertainment, provided at no cost to the Club, by a few valued members. I would like to personally thank Christopher Dale, Dave Granillo, and Gary Brownell for either playing with, or organizing the three acts that we were able to enjoy during the month. And, not only did we have fun, all three of days when we had live entertainment were very profitable for the club. On that note, I am happy to announce that starting the second weekend in October LIVE MUSIC FRIDAY NIGHTS are returning to the club. We have booked some of our favorite solo acoustic performers to play outside on the patio throughout the month. We will be closely monitoring sales numbers on those days to make sure that having the entertainment is profitable for the club, so PLEASE come down on those nights for dinner to support your Club and also to support some of our favorite local San Diego musicians. I would also like to thanks and commend Tanya DeLong for hosting another very successful work party on Saturday Sept 12th. We had a great turn out, and got a lot accomplished, so thank you to everyone who contributed on that day. The board and the flag appreciate your dedication and commitment. While we have made A LOT of progress in 2020 towards our goal of making the Club a more enjoyable and functional facility, but we still have some things to improve beloved but aging club. The primary focus for now is getting the gate repaired, and maintained. We are currently working on a three-phased repair plan to get the gate working 100% properly. We have completed Phase I, and are working on approving funding for Phases II and III. We hope to have everything completed by the end of this year. We have also entered into a maintenance contract with the company doing the repairs, so going forward we should have minimal or zero issues once the project is complete, and we go into regular maintenance phase. Also, just another reminder that first nominations for our 2021 election are just around the corner, at the October board meeting, so keep that in mind if you are interested for running for office. Stay safe everyone and I hope to see you all at the Club very soon. Regards, Commodore Kevin Witherell FLAG AND BOARD MEETINGS ~ October 20, 2020 ~ Tuesday @ 7 p.m. (The third Tuesday of the month) If you have items for the Board contact Commodore Kevin Witherell in advance to place on Agenda. See the Board in Action. Club Members are encouraged to attend Flag Meetings. FIRST NOMINATIONS Tonight is First Nominations ~ Pages 11-12-13 for Nominations/Elections Information Cathleen Flowers Election Chairperson They are always welcomed to attend the Board Meeting. Let your voice be heard and come to the meetings. For the October Flag and Board Meeting it will be both Zoom and in-person. We will email instructions for the meeting a few days in advance. Commodores ~ First and Second Vices ~ New Members Page 3 First Vice Commodore, Jack Porath The mandated restrictions by the Governor and the County of San Diego remain and we are doing everything we can possibly do to adhere to the dictates to keep members and guests safe and continuing the business. When and where possible, we are bringing some live entertainment for your pleasure and opening the galley when feasible. Please understand that it is not at all pleasant to continually wear masks in a hot galley and when working behind the bar. Thank them for what they do for you and please take into consideration any food or drink delays caused by the change of serving venues, both outside and inside. As it causes us some delays, it is also causing problems for the staff. Take care and God Bless. Jack Porath First Vice Commodore Second Vice Commodore Maria Potter-Wood Happy October! Today, Mike and I went to visit Don Webb at Summer Place a hospice center in El Cajon. He was in good spirits, chatty as always, and telling us that he has made peace with himself. He looked good and was happy to see us. I have continued to water, tend to the plants and clean up the patio every Friday for the enjoyment of all members. I want to thank Chuck Quillen for welding one of the broken patio chairs. You did a great job Chuck! Have you noticed that about 5-6 patio chairs are missing? About two and a half years ago someone borrowed a stack of 10 chairs, they were never returned. This year, I noticed that around the end of June thru July other chairs went missing. We always had 6 chairs to a table and about 8 chairs around the fire pit, now we have about 4 chairs around the fire pit. Next month, I will start the Christmas Drive for personal care items for the homeless teenagers at the Storefront without my co-chair of many years, Anita Sgobba. If you would like to co-chair this very rewarding event, please contact me. The Storefront is under the auspices of the City of San Diego Youth Services. More information will be forthcoming next month.

Entertainment ~ Clean-Up Day Page 4 Continued from page 1 Friday, October 30th – 7 pm to 10 pm • Rhea • Rhea Makiaris is an East Coast bred, West Coast raised musical sensation. With a natural ear for music and knack for picking up instruments, she is a self-taught riot of a minstrel with a honey voice and a yen for old school R&B. Rhea transports her listeners back to a golden age of music, when all a performer needed to entertain was a guitar and an exceptional voice. Entertainment by Christopher Dale ~ [email protected] CLEAN-UP DAY Hello everyone! Our clean-up day was a success as usual. Kudos to the Ikuna Koa team as 14 members of the paddling club showed up and worked hard! We also had a couple of eager members, Steele Young and Brian Niznik, who started early and got things going! Chris Dale also came in early to set up the stage for the band later that day. The clean-up crew (in alphabetical order) included: Jeff Caufield, Carlos Cuervo, Chris Dale, Dave & Tanya DeLong, Mica Gaila, Paula Goleta, Kristen Luther, Cash Martin, Hau Oli Martin, Justice Martin, Kai Martin, Keona Martin, Mikaela Martin, Corey Mitskevich, Brian Niznik, Ian Poirier, Greg Shaw, Eddie Villavicencio, Steele Young When I arrived, Steele was weed-whacking away, Brian picking up trash and big items from around the boatyard, Chris was setting up the stage, and the Ikuna Koa team was going to town cleaning their equipment and area, including their shed (which as you may have noticed they are currently remodeling and looks amazing!).

  • LOOKING BACK in HISTORY Happenings in the Cookeville Area As Recorded in the Pages of the Herald Citizen Newspaper, Cookeville, TN
    WAY BACK WHEN: LOOKING BACK IN HISTORY Happenings in the Cookeville area as recorded in the pages of the Herald Citizen Newspaper, Cookeville, TN. By Bob McMillian 1940’s (Compiled by Audrey J. Lambert) http://www.ajlambert.com 1940 (January 3, 1940) The Cookeville City Commission has intentionally allowed the airport’s lease to run out because its location — in a cornfield — did not qualify it for a $150,000 federal grant needed to build a new facility. (January 11, 1940) Members of the Putnam County Court vowed to do better and begin collecting past due property taxes after local attorney Worth Bryant blasted the magistrates. He said some long past due taxes are not uncollectible due to the statute of limitations. The magistrates asked County Judge B. C. Huddleston and County Attorney W. K. Crawford to begin filing suites against landowners whose taxes are overdue. (January 11, 1940) There is no Cookeville Airport this week. The city commission let the lease run out. It was intentional. The city has been leasing a corn field two miles north of Cookeville for an airport, but there’s a move afoot to get a federal grant of up to $150,000 to build a full•fledged air facility with a first class runway. But the corn field doesn’t qualify for the grant, so the city commission decided to let it go while looking for a better site. Cookeville has high hopes for its airport. The city lies under the intersection of east•west and north•south air mail routes. “Planes fly over the city at frequent intervals during the day and night,” says the newspaper.

    1 Funding for the Smithsonian Jazz Oral History Program NEA Jazz Master interview was provided by the National Endowment for the Arts. CLARK TERRY NEA Jazz Master (1991) Interviewee: Clark Terry (December 14, 1920 – February 21, 2015) Interviewer: William Brower Date: June 15 and 22, 1999 Repository: Archives Center, National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution Description: Transcript, 150 pp. Transcriber’s note: Evidently there was no recording engineer available for the Clark Terry interview, and the interviewer, William Brower, handled the record process by himself. He had some technical problems. In the interview of June 15, 1999, one of the two channels is shorted out and emits nothing but a buzz, disrupting the entire session; this problem is exacerbated, affecting both channels, in the last two hours of this session. Brower acknowledges these problems at the beginning of the interview that took place one week later, on June 22, 1999. This later session has an excellent stereophonic sound. Terry: Saw a fellow sitting there, standing on a rock. He was driving around the corner, in the middle of the block. Is that close enough? Brower: Okay. We’re going to try this again. This is Bill Brower, talking with Mr. Clark Terry on June 15th for the Smithsonian Jazz Oral History Project, and we were getting background on the Terry family, and I’m going to ask if you would, to repeat the things that you told me about your parents’ background. For additional information contact the Archives Center at 202.633.3270 or [email protected] 2 Terry: My mother’s name was Mary Scott.

  • Jazz Guitarist Jimmy Ponder: a Case Study of Creative Processes and Identity Formation in American Popular Music
    JAZZ GUITARIST JIMMY PONDER: A CASE STUDY OF CREATIVE PROCESSES AND IDENTITY FORMATION IN AMERICAN POPULAR MUSIC By Colter Harper BM Duquesne University, 2001 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Department of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MA, Ethnomusicology University of Pittsburgh 2006 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH Faculty of Arts and Sciences This thesis was presented by Colter Harper It was defended on November 30, 2006 and approved by Akin Euba, PhD, Andrew Mellon Professor of Music Andrew Weintraub, PhD, Associate Professor of Music Thesis Director: Nathan Davis, PhD, Professor of Music ii Copyright © by Colter Harper 2006 iii JAZZ GUITARIST JIMMY PONDER: A CASE STUDY OF CREATIVE PROCESSES AND IDENTITY FORMATION IN AMERICAN POPULAR MUSIC Colter Harper, MA University of Pittsburgh, 2006 This study examines musical and social processes in American popular music through the creative life of Pittsburgh born jazz guitarist Jimmy Ponder. I contextualize Ponder’s technical and conceptual approaches with a historical analysis of developments in jazz during the mid-20th century. In examining intersections between jazz and other popular forms of music during the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, I aim to identify Ponder’s “musical identity,” which encapsulates the totality of his musical existence. In this study, I focus on relating musical sounds to social contexts and the processes that give these sound meaning. Musical identity, as a tool for examining the creative life of the jazz musician, is comprised of the individual’s approach to their instrument(s), recording, band leading, performance, song interpretation, and improvisation. From these approaches develops a “voice” with which the musician creates meaningful musical experiences (authentic performances) as well as engages certain social realities in public contexts (affective collective listening).
