'Stolen Moments' podcast from Casually Smashed To Pieces (4.10MB; download) -- "The thing about Six Parts Seven is we're fans of music rather than
musicians first," explains guitarist/bassist/arranger Allen Karpinski,
who - alongside his drumming brother Jay Karpinski, guitarist Tim Gerak
and bass guitarist Mike Tolan - makes up the musical core of 6P7. "None
of us are trained or anything like that; this band has always been a
work in progress and over time we've just gotten better at assimilating
all the things we love into the music." Abstractly drawing from
mid-90's Touch and Go Records roster, the band have thoroughly
recontextualized their influences to create something wholly unique
with Casually Smashed To Pieces. Selected by: Gary Santoro [ stations ], Tue, 06 Feb 2007 05:51:19 UTC

Those who say that we're in a time when there are no heroes, they just don't know where to look."- Ronald Reagan Starting in 1964, Ronald Reagan became ever more active in the political sphere. Not that he had been inactive as evidenced by his active campaigning for Nixon. In fact for almost 10 years, starting in 1954, Reagan had been gaining experience by touring the country and speaking to large crowds of GE employees as part of his contract with GE Theater and by running for honorary Mayor. So, when 1964 came, Ronald Reagan's political train had already gained momentum and was rolling down the tracks. A speech for Barry Goldwater's 1964 campaign officially launched his political career as a Republican. As noted in his autobiography An American Life, Reagan always claims that he did not leave the Democratic party, it left him. It was a great disappointment to him, but determined as always he moved on. The same year "The Friends of Ronald Reagan" a political support group was formed, and the next year, 1965, Reagan announced his candidacy for Governor of California. In 1966, Reagan won the election in a landslide setting himself up for a potential 1968 Presidential bid. In 68, Reagan announced his candidacy for President at the Republican convention, but later joined in unanimous support for Nixon. Then, in 1970, he won re-election for a second term as Governor of California. In 1974, Reagan declined offers from the Ford administration to be ambassador to England (the court of St. James), and both Secretary of Transportation an Commerce. In 1976, he announced his candidacy for President. Although he lost the nomination to Ford after a strong primary, 1976 laid the groundwork for his presidential bid.1979 dawned gray in the US. President Carter was beleaguered, the Misery Index was high, gasoline prices were high and American citizens were being held hostage. It was in this climate that Ronald Reagan announced his candidacy for President. Entering 1980, it was not a slam dunk that Reagan would win the nomination, in fact, going into the primary in NH George H. Bush was the front runner because he had won in Iowa - until the first debate."We are the showcase of the future. And it is within our power to mold that future-this year and for decades to come. It can be as grand and as great as we make it. No crisis is beyond the capacity of our people to solve; no challenge too great."- Ronald ReaganIt was in the debate moderated by the Nashua Telegraph, paid for by the Reagan Campaign because he believed all the candidates should have a voice - not just the front runners - that Reagan feels that he won the primary and possibly the election. On the occasion, Reagan was there with all the candidates behind him while Bush was on the other side of the stage. The moderator, Jim Breen, told the sound man to turn of Reagan's microphone though Reagan wanted to make an announcement to explain why there was a delay in getting the debate started. After the second time that Breen told sound to cut the microphone, Reagan got upset, stood up, grabbed the mic, asked if it was on and then after sitting back down in his chair said "I am paying for this microphone Mr. Green!" The crowd went wild. Reagan went on to trounce all five candidates in the primary, won the Republican nomination, and speaking a message of hope and strength, swept to victory in one of the most lopsided elections in US history.In January 1981, shortly after being announced Time Magazine's Man of the year, Ronald Reagan wa Selected by: Gary Santoro [ stations ], Sat, 03 Feb 2007 18:52:22 UTC

Biography Podcast 0006: Ronald Wilson Reagan - Part I (7.29MB; download) -- The sixth episode of the podcast - Ronald Wilson Reagan - Part I, 40th President, Actor and name sake of Regan Airport in Washington, DC. Enjoy!Contact info: e-mail: biographypodcast [at] gmail.comvoicemail: 206-202-W00T (9008)Skype, AIM/iChat, Yahoo!: PalmMagnateVote for us at Podcast AlleyGod bless, now go out and do something amazing that will be in your biography!Today's Text=============="If I could just make a personal statement of my own -- in these 3 1/2 years I have understood and known better than ever before the words of Lincoln, when he said that he would be the greatest fool on this footstool called Earth if he ever thought that for one moment he could perform the duties of that office without help from One who is stronger than all." - Ronald ReaganIf one quote can come close to capturing a man, then this quote by Ronald Reagan, the man known as the "Great Communicator," the President who called for the Soviet Union to tear down the Berlin wall, the Commander in Chief who without remorse understood that strength was the best negotiating chip, does so better than almost any other. This quote captures Ronald Reagan's awe and acknowledgment of the Supreme Being, his sense and his love for history, and his knowledge that above all things, he was nothing more than a servant of his office and of the people and country he so loved and loved serving.A child of Irish and Scotch parents, Ronald Wilson Reagan, 40th President of the United States, was born in humble circumstances - an apartment above a small bakery - in Tampico, Illinois to John Reagan and Nellie Clyde Wilson on February 6, 1911. The second of two boys, Ron Reagan was an outgoing boy who loved life, loved his mother and worked for everything he had from a young age. In an oddity for his time, Regan never addressed his father as dad, daddy or father - but by his first name only. This could be because even though Jack was a hard worker, he had a hard time holding jobs, he was also prone to bouts of drinking that left him out of favor with Nellie, Ron and his older brother Neil. Reagan also wore glasses from early in his youth, discovering he needed them one day while riding in the car and playing by putting on his mother's glasses - and realizing he could see the cows and the trees in the fields and by the road side that he'd never been able to see before.On July 21, 1922, at the age of 11, Ronald Reagan was baptized at the Christian Church of Dixon, IL, the town that he always referred to as his home town. And while this one incident may seem small or insignificant in passing, it's important to note that at age 11, the young Ronald Reagan was serious about his faith and that this event is included in his biography and his own autobiography, "An American Life."The ever affable and optimistic Reagan grew up with the gift to tell a story and was popular even as a youth. He was athletic, played sports, and he earned his money for both high school and college, as a lifeguard where he was credited with saving 77 lives. The earliest indication of his dedication to being involved in participatory government is illustrated by his election as a senior as the student body President of Dixon High School.In June of 1932, Dutch Reagan (his father Jack nicknamed Regan "Dutch" when he was a baby) Graduated from Eureka College with a BA in economics and sociology. At Eureka he participated in drama, football and swimming. He also served as student body president and helped organize a student strike. After his graduation, he started work in radio as a temporary, and stayed working as an announcer through 1937. It was during this time, in 1933, that he did the famous call of the baseball game when he lost his telegraph reports from Chicago. With his usual imagination, charm and style, Reagan had the batter record what would have been one of the longest at-bats in MLB history while waiting for the telegraph feed to be restored. It was also during this period, in 19 Selected by: Gary Santoro [ stations ], Wed, 31 Jan 2007 02:51:00 UTC
