  Consilience


"Valega’s drumming continually evolves, steady rhythmically but given to frequent tonal shifts which create new environments which his band mates respond to with snap reflexes."

Vinson Valega

Gary Wang

CD Pick:
John Coltrane - Giant Steps
One of the greatest classics of all time. This CD should be in every music lover's collection, regardless of whether they know anything about jazz at all. There was only one John Coltrane, that's for sure!

Book Pick:
Plain, Honest Men: The Making of the American Constitution

by Richard Beeman

As the convention's hot summer weeks rolled on, tensions built, agreements were reached and compromises (especially, alas, about slavery) were made. Beeman gives each decision, each vote, the weight it deserves and, in brief sketches, brings the delegates alive.

Basel Action Network

BAN is the world's only organization focused on confronting the global environmental injustice and economic inefficiency of toxic trade (toxic wastes, products and technologies) and its devastating impacts. Working at the nexus of human rights and environment, they confront the issues of environmental justice at a macro level, preventing disproportionate and unsustainable dumping of the world's toxic waste and pollution on our global village's poorest residents.
