Roy
Haynes - Out Of The Afternoon
Mr. Haynes is a veritable time machine at age 84, having played with everyone
from Louis Armstrong to Charlie Parker to John Coltrane and beyond! He
played on opening night at Birdland
in NYC and he played their 60th anniversary on Dec. 15th, 2009. He's
as strong as he was 60 years ago!

by Gordon Wood
"No other living historian knows this era better than Wood, who has
been writing about it since his first book, "The Creation of the
American Republic," which won a Bancroft Prize in 1970."

Essay:
Why We Must Ration
Health Care.
You have advanced kidney cancer. It will kill you, probably in the
next year or two. A drug called Sutent slows the spread of the cancer
and may give you an extra six months, but at a cost of $54,000. Is a few
more months worth that much?
