SDS, of course, is split between RYM I (Weatherman), oper' ating out of the UWM area, and RYM II, which is the stronger of the two at Marquette. In Milwaukee, as is the case else­ where, RYM I is weak and getting weaker. The local chapter will probably be inactive for a while, having shot it's wad in Chicago. Their leader, John Furst, is, as of this writing, in a hospital, the result of a singularly unproductive meeting with the Blue Meanies. RYM I's chief contribution to proletariat education in Mil' waukee occured recently when they invaded a south side Marc's Big Boy, led by Mark Rudd. The result was predictable: a brawl, and that time Rudd ended up in a hospital. (Perhaps RYM I should concentrate on organizing hospital employees, since they seem to spend an inordinate amount of time there.) The local White Panther Party is also going through some changes. The WPP had functioned in Milwaukee as an an­ archistic band of freaks more interested in initiating and de­ fining issues than in day-to-day organizing. But this didn't satisfy some people -- despite the success of the WPP's Sgt. Miller and Performing Arts Center campaigns - - and so the dissidents have established another White Panther Party.in Milwaukee. This WPP is more structured, with a central com­ mittee, ministers of this and that, and a ruling elite. They're geared to organizing, while the original The Milwaukee White Panther Tribe, intends to continue their brand of unstructured madness. Much of the current factionalism centers around ideological grounds, and is perhaps a healthy sign that an essentially mid­ dle-class, university-oriented movement is finally ready to move to the streets, which is where it must be if it is to produce revolutionary social change. But there are dangers, too. There is no question that the Chicago Conspiracy actions were ser­ Guess Who Came iously weakened by the inability of the movement to construct some sort of united action, and the movement's disarray has allowed anti-war activity initiative to pass to the liberal-left Moratorium people. to Dinner?

Introduction “[I]n the arrogance of our conviction that we would have done better than he did in a single case, we exempt ourselves from any duty to pay attention to the many cases where he shows himself to be better than us.” 1 — Murray Kempton, New York Newsday , November 27, 1983 EDWARD MOORE KENNEDY AND I share the same first name; we also share the somewhat uncommon nickname of Ted for Edward. And for the first two decades of my life, that was roughly the extent of my knowledge about the man who has been my state’s senior senator for my entire life, all but seven years of my mother’s life, and more than half of my grandmother’s life. Kennedy has been a member of the Senate for so long (45 of his 75 years) that it seems he could have been born in the cloakroom, though he was actually born in Boston on February 22, 1932, the youngest child of Joseph Patrick and Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy.

    BIBLIOTECA PÚBLICA DE ALICANTE BIOGRAFÍA Roy Haynes nació el 13 de marzo de 1925 en Boston, Massachusetts. A finales de los años cuarenta y principios de los cincuenta, Roy Haynes tuvo la clase de aprendizaje que constituiría el sueño de cualquier músico actual: sentarse en el puesto de baterista y acompañar al gran Charlie Parker. Ahora, cincuenta años después, y tras haber tocado con todos los grandes del jazz: Thelonius Monk, Miles Davis, o Bud Powell, todavía coloca sus grabaciones en la cima de las listas de las revistas especializadas en jazz. Este veterano baterista, comenzó su andadura profesional en las bigbands de Frankie Newton y Louis Russell (1945-1947) y el siguiente paso fue tocar entre 1947 y 1949 con el maestro el saxo tenor, Lester Young. Entre 1949 y 1952, formo parte del quinteto de Charlie Parker y desde ese privilegiado taburete vio pasar a las grandes figuras del bebop y aprender de ellas. Acompañó a la cantante Sarah Vaughan, por los circuitos del jazz en los Estados Unidos entre 1953 y 1958 y cuando finalizó su trabajo grabo con Thelonious Monk, George Shearing y Lennie Tristano entre otros y ocasionalmente sustituía a Elvin Jones en el cuarteto de John Coltrane. Participó en la dirección de la Banda Sonora Original de la película "Bird" dirigida por Clint Eastwood en 1988 y todavía hoy en activo, Roy Haynes, es una autentica bomba dentro de un escenario como pudimos personalmente comprobar en uno de sus últimos conciertos celebrados en España y mas concretamente en Sevilla en el año 2000. En 1994, Roy Haynes recibió el premio Danish Jazzpar, que se concede en Dinamarca.

  • Carla Bley Wurde Im Kalifornischen Oakland Geboren Und Lebt Heute in Den Catskill Mountains Im US-Bundes- Staat New York
    Bley, Carla Carla Bley wurde im kalifornischen Oakland geboren und lebt heute in den Catskill Mountains im US-Bundes- staat New York. Mit verschiedenen Bands, kammermusi- kalischen Ensembles und Orchestern hat sie die ganze Welt bereist, vor allem Europa und Südostasien. Als „composer-in-residence“ war sie unter anderem beim Glasgow Festival und wurde in die Essener Philharmo- nie eingeladen. Biografie Carla Bley wurde am 11. Mai 1936 als Lovella May Borg in Oakland, Kalifornien, als Tochter zweier Musiker gebo- ren. Bei ihrem Vater Emil Borg erhielt sie ersten Klavier- und Orgelunterricht und begleitete bereits im Alter von vier Jahren Hochzeiten und Begräbnisse. Mit acht Jah- ren verweigerte sie jeden weiteren Unterricht (Carla Bley betrachtet sich selbst als Autodidaktin). Im selben Jahr starb ihre Mutter Arline Borg. Fünfzehnjährig brach sie die Schule ab und jobbte in einem Plattenladen. Zusätzli- ches Geld verdiente sie mit Auftritten in örtlichen Piano- Bars. Insbesondere die Musik Erik Saties, die sie zufällig Carla Bley im Radio gehört hatte, beschäftigte ihre Fantasie. Carla Bley 1957 verließ sie Kalifornien und ging nach New York, wo Geburtsname: Carla Lovella Borg sie sich Carla Borg nannte.

  • Pop Culture Politics Student Life and the Like Summer 2009
    DECONSTRUCTIONPop Culture Politics Student Life and the like Summer 2009 A Few Parting Words... Our last issue of Deconstruction. Ever. As freshmen four years ago, we never thought this day would arrive. The end comes with a melancholic jumble of both sadness and relief. As Publicity Director and Cultural Editor (as well as Writ- ers/ Copy Editors/ Artists/ Readers/ Supporters/ Overall DEcon Lovers) it is hard to believe that we will never again be a part of such an eclectic publication with a staff just as eclectic and wonderful. While the poignancy of the final is- sue is overwhelming, we are relieved that we will never again have to scramble to pull articles together, pull a cover out of thin air or have to see the inside of the Morris Library Mac Lab… Relieved that we are able to graduate on May 30th and leave the future of DEcon in capable hands. This final issue of DEcon almost didn’t happen. The overwhelming stress of classes, exams, jobs etc. really gripped us all, however, we knew that ending our time here at UD without a final issue just wasn’t right. Thanks to a select few, we were able to pull this compilation together and present it to you. We want to thank you all for being loyal readers and supporters these past couple of years and hope that you will continue to read, contribute and enjoy Deconstruction after we are gone. Consider this issue as toast to the future, though foggy and unpredictable it may seem. As daunting as it sounds, we all will be moving on, leaving the Blue Hen nest Delaware has so kindly provided for us and bravely taking flight into the real world.
