By: Neal Battaglia | 2010-03-31 | Music Tenor Saxophonist, Sonny Rollins is a true musician, a man who walked away from rising fame to practice alone atop an isolated bridge rather than letting his legend grow faster than his creativity. Rollins started as a piano player before being given his first saxophone at age 13. That first saxophone was an alto, a nod to saxophonist Louis Jordon. Rollins would switch over to tenor at the age of 16, inspired by his idol Coleman Hawkins. By the time he was 20, Rollins was playing with the legendary jazz pianist Thelonious Monk. Other notable musicians that Sonny had played and recorded with by then include Miles Davis, J.J. Johnson, Babs Gonzales and Bud Powell. read more

By: Paul Hemphill | 2010-03-29 | College When visiting a college campus, bring up this indelicate subject: What is your college doing to prevent alcohol and drug abuse? Parents appear to be clueless. Walking on a college tour astounds me with what questions parents ask. It's the equivalent of asking if the school has running water. Lots of really dumb questions that have nothing to do with the academic or cultural integrity of the college. "How's the food here?" is pretty standard. Which is partly why colleges have subtle contempt for parents, except for their money. read more
