I’ve wanted to own a private car since I was in my 20’s. It takes a lot of time and money to restore such a car, White said. He bought the car in 2016 but wouldn’t say for how much. He has spent about $500,000 to upgrade and renovate it. And now there are storage fees, insurance costs, annual inspections and Amtrak’s charges to pull the car, $3.67 per mile. “It’s definitely not for the faint of pocket book,” White said. White has completely refurbished the Hollywood Beach, essentially bringing it back to its original look and feel. The large solarium lounge, with windows all around and on top, gives riders a full panoramic view.The car has five private bedrooms, with indi- vidual bathrooms, for overnight guests. It sleeps 10. The Pullman-style rooms provide a couch dur- ing the day and have beds that pull down from the wall for sleeping. Everything has been restored, even the little compartments where first-class bedroom guests in the 50’s could put their shoes before going to bed. The shoes would be shined and returned by morning. White also has added a full kitchen and a shower. The Hollywood Beach Pullman private car from the Seaboard Air Line Railroad is owned by Keith White (right).

  • Compared to Other Country Rock Artists in Europe, Liane Edwards Is Like a Shot of Whiskey in a World of Sweet Tea
    Compared to other country rock artists in Europe, Liane Edwards is like a shot of whiskey in a world of sweet tea. Unlike the bands that sing songs about the South but yet have never seen a Carolina sunset, she is the real thing. But she has been doing her (own) thing for nearly 20 years, and doing it well. Liane Edwards was born in North Carolina. Raised in a family of musicians, her first stage performances were in Southern Baptist churches at the age of 7. She arrived in France in the 90’s and found the best French musicians to accompany her on her personal crazy train. Together, they have been touring for nearly 20 years, and have given well over 2000 stage shows throughout France, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, Holland, Scotland, Lithuania and the USA. Singer/songwriters, their song list will keep feet tapping. What is the reason for their success? They have put a good dose of rock into their country, a surprising cocktail that chips away at preconceived ideas about what country music really is. This chick is dynamite!! The new album, Raisin’ Dust is just another example of the band’s energy and excellent songwriting. Their signature sound, and the raw emotion has pushed her once again into the discovery of limits and of self. Recording History Raisin’ Dust 2017 12 original tracks High Heels and Shotguns 2012 12 original tracks Caught Red Handed 2008 Live recording 12 tracks Branded 2004 12 original tracks Inside the Machine 2001 12 tracks including 7 originals Life size 1998 5 track demo Ghost Rider 1996 9 originals Country Christmas 2009 Awards Liane was voted 2017 Songwriter of the Year in the French Country Highway Awards.

  • JAZZ EDUCATION in ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN a Thesis Submitted to The
    JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Jazz History and Research written under the direction of Dr. Henry Martin and approved by ___________________________________ ___________________________________ Newark, New Jersey May,2017 ©2017 Lee Caplan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL By LEE CAPLAN Thesis Director Dr. Henry Martin Jazz Education in Israel is indebted to three key figures – Zvi Keren, Arnie Lawrence, and Mel Keller. This thesis explores how Jazz developed in Israel and the role education played. Jazz Education in Israel discusses the origin of educational programs such as the Rimon School of Jazz and Contemporary Music (1985) and the New School Jazz Program (1986). One question that was imperative to this study was attempting to discover exactly how Jazz became a cultural import and export within Israel. Through interviews included in this thesis, this study uncovers just that. The interviews include figures such as Tal Ronen, Dr. Arnon Palty, Dr. Alona Sagee, and Keren Yair Dagan. As technology gets more advanced and the world gets smaller, Jazz finds itself playing a larger role in humanity as a whole. iii Preface The idea for this thesis came to me when I was traveling abroad during the summer of 2015. I was enjoying sightseeing throughout the streets of Ben Yehuda Jerusalem contemplating topics when all of a sudden I came across a jam session. I went over to listen to the music and was extremely surprised to find musicians from all parts of Europe coming together in a small Jazz venue in Israel playing bebop standards at break-neck speeds.

    23rd International Conference on The First-Year Experience June 7-10, 2010 Maui, Hawaii You‟re Not the Boss of Me: Putting Technology in Its Place By Using a Systemic Approach to Student Retention and Support Rachel Phillips-Buck Career Counselor Abilene Christian University 325-665-7346 [email protected] Technology has changed the world in which we live and has accomplished astounding feats. Our society now has a desire for human affairs to be guided by technological solutions and ―technology-generated evidence‖ (McGovern, Gerry 2010). Simply stated, technology has become the panacea to the world‘s problems. This is seen in way we use twitter and facebook to make connections. It is used at airports as the solution for identifying suspicious people, and screening for dangerous material. On our campuses, technology‘s role has expanded to sort through students‘ demographic and academic information using retention algorithms to identify at-risk students—ranging from persistence concerns to those who may be more likely to create a crisis situation on your campus. These linear approaches ignore the value of the rich resources in which we live, learn, work, and communicate—our system. There is a new attitude emerging from this technologically-saturated milieu. When we evaluate the true implications of a linear approach, common sense recognizes that technology, however helpful it may be, needs to be placed in balance with other elements of our system. The pendulum is swinging back to an attitude that supports the value of human contributions to problem solving, decision-making, and crisis management. For example, security experts are now suggesting that ―technology should support people…skilled people (should be) at the center of our security concept rather than the other way around‖ (Gurion, 2010).
