  • Early Days of the Pioneers Cuyahoga County and Brooklyn Township
    EARLY DAYS OF THE PIONEERS CUYAHOGA COUNTY AND BROOKLYN TOWNSHIP BY EBENEZER FOSTER The writer of the history, Mr. Ebenezer Foster, was born on April 19, 1810 in North Stonington, Conn. 2 FOSTER AND FISHES IN THE EAST Jan. 1, 1880 My own personal knowledge of the events of which I write runs back sixty-three years. That which was handed down thru my mother’s family runs back one hundred years or more. That which was handed down from one family to another of my father’s kindred, runs back two hundred years or more. I will first write what has been handed down to me thru the family of my father’s brother. They say that our great-grandfather on my father’s side, came from Scotland to America with three brothers. 1 One settled in Molbren, two more to some other place, and the fourth at Watch Hill, R.I. The latter proved to be my great grandfather. I suppose that he married an American woman. There are only two sons handed down to us, namely my grandfather and his brother, George Foster. Uncle George Foster married a Davis. They raised no children. Grandfather married a Mane.i They had two sons, Thomas and Jonathan. While these boys were quite young their mother died. How long he lived a widower is not known. In due time grandfather went up to North Stonington, about fourteen miles, near Pendleton Hill, to a noted place called Billing’s Pond. Doubtless this name was given the pond because Mr. Billings owned most of the land around it.

  • Apple Label Discography
    Apple Label Discography 100-800 series (Capitol numbering series) Apple Records was formed by John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr in 1968. The Apple label was intended as a vehicle for the Beatles, their individual recordings and the talent they discovered. A great deal of what appeared on Apple was pretty self indulgent and experimental but they did discover a few good singers and groups. James Taylor recorded his first album on the label. Doris Troy recorded a good soul album and there are 2 albums by John Lewis and the Modern Jazz Quartet. The Beatlesque group Badfinger also issued several albums on the label, the best of which was “Straight Up”. Apple Records fell apart in management chaos in 1974 and 1975 and a bitter split between the Beatles over the management of the company. Once the lawyers got involved everybody was suing everybody else over the collapse. The parody of the Beatles rise and the disintegration of Apple is captured hilariously in the satire “All You Need Is Cash: the story of the Rutles”. The Apple label on side 1 is black with a picture of a green apple on it, black printing. The label on side 2 is a picture of ½ an apple. From November 1968 until early 1970 at the bottom of the label was “MFD. BY CAPITOL RECORDS, INC. A SUBSIDIARY OF CAPITOL INDUSTRIES INC. USA”. From Early 1970 to late 1974, at the bottom of the label is “MFD. BY APPLE RECORDS” From late 1974 through 1975, there was a notation under the “MFD.

  • The Art of Grieving
    The Art of Grieving McKalee Steen, College of Arts and Science Wayne Porter is an artist who has never taken an art class. Still, he has created one of the most obscure, must-see attractions for those who find themselves traveling through South Dakota for whatever ungodly reason: a sculpture park full of his wonderful and whimsical creations. The main attraction is a massive cow head with horns, made of now-rusted metal, equivalent to the size of one of the heads on Mount Rushmore. My mother and I found ourselves in this sculpture park two summers after my dad died and three months after her dad died. Both of us now fatherless, we were treading the waters of pain together. We were grievers who had never taken a grief class. Our particular road trip was spurred, perhaps, by the two of us knowing that we were on the precipice of change. I was about to go to college six hundred miles away, and my mother would be living alone for the first time in her adult life. Our destination: Belcourt, North Dakota, where my sister had just moved to start her career in clinical pharmacy in the Indian Healthcare System. It was a long, flat, desolate drive. It was a new, exciting, and terrifying chapter in all our lives. December 10, 2014 was the last day my dad was alive. I can’t remember if I told him I loved him, like I did most every other morning before I left for school. None of us knew that by seven o’ clock that night he would be dead.

    1 PLAYLIST Dec. 11th 2016 9AM The Beatles - Good Morning Good Morning - Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John 2 Based on a Kellogg’s Cornflakes television commercial John heard while sitting at the piano and feeling a bit “stuck” trying to write something for “Sgt. Pepper.” Paul plays a stinging guitar solo and flourishes with his right-handed Fender Esquire. The basic rhythm track was recorded on February 8, 1967 in eight takes, four of them complete. Overdubs followed with John’s lead vocal and Paul’s bass added on February 16. A horn section consisting of members of the Brian Epstein-managed band Sounds Inc. (previously Sounds Incorporated) was brought in on March 13. Sounds Incorporated had been one of the opening acts on the Beatles’ 1964 and 1965 tours. The Beatles - Savoy Truffle - The Beatles (Harrison) Lead vocal: George George took his inspiration for his fourth song on the “White Album” from a box of chocolates, specifically a Mackintosh’s Good News double centre chocolate assortment box, said by George to be Eric Clapton’s favorite brand. Most of the candies mentioned by George in the song came from the specific candies found in the box. Confections such as Creme Tangerine, Montelimart, Ginger Sling, Coffee Dessert and Savoy Truffle were part of the assortment. Cool Cherry Cream and Coconut Fudge were Harrison creations. When George sings “But you’ll have to have them all pulled out after the Savoy Truffle,” it is a warning to his friend Eric Clapton that he will have to have his decaying teeth pulled out.

    PLAYLIST MARCH 10, 2013 8AM? NO It’s 9AM! The Beatles - I’m So Tired - The Beatles (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John John Lennon’s “I’m So Tired” was started and finished in 14 takes on October 8, 1968. No overdubs were added. The session was a marathon 16-hour session which started at 4 p.m. on the 8th and finished at 8 a.m. on October 9 (John’s 28th birthday), and saw the completion of two Lennon compositions (“I’m So Tired” and “The Continuing Story Of Bungalow Bill”) and work on George Harrison’s “Long Long Long.” Written in India while the Beatles were studying Transcendental Meditation under Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the all-day regime in Rishikesh, India, prevented John from sleeping at night, so he decided to write A song about it. The Beatles - I’m Only Sleeping - Revolver (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John Written by John and Paul at Kenwood, John’s estate in Weybridge, in one writing session. Recording of the backing rhythm track began at 11:30 p.m. on April 27, 1966. John recorded his lead vocal on April 29. Both the vocal and backing track were recorded at variable speed. It was during the recording of “I’m Only Sleeping” that The Beatles discovered the “backwards guitar.” On May 5, 1966, as the band continued working on the song, George painstakingly transcribed the notes in his guitar solo and flourishes and then wrote them out backwards. He then played them in that reverse order. The tapes were then superimposed BACKWARDS in the mix, playing the solo notes and embellishments in the correct order, but maintaining the eerie backwards sound.

  • Each Thought Is Separated by Color for Ease of Reading ​
    EACH THOUGHT IS SEPARATED BY COLOR FOR EASE OF READING ​ The Beatles connected the thread of my childhood to my adulthood, and are the only band I’ve listened to consistently since birth. That’s probably the same for most people my age (26), but sadly, we are probably the last generation to be able to say this! Paul & John could go into a cave. Paul would write 100 songs, and every single one of them would be fantastic flawless (and kickass) songs. John would write maybe 60, and 40 of them would be great, 10 of them would be not so great, but 5 of them would cut you to the core and be the best thing you’d ever heard in your life, (and the only songs you’d ever need again). I've read a lot of stories but of all the world the Beatles story is the best and it really happened! I knew I became an adult and had emotionally matured a lot when I pulled my 2nd all-nighter ever reading the Beatles anthology. To be fair, it was right after returning from Japan when I still felt in a different timezone. But the point is, my first all-nighter was from emotional stress where I just lay in bed staring at the ceiling trying to sleep and suddenly it was 9am and I had to go to school. But this time it was a choice, and a pleasant, rewarding staying up all night experience. The history of the Beatles can be told just by Ringo’s face over the years: Exactly how I feel or try to feel most of the time: “I'm cynical about society, politics, newspapers, government.
