Stacey Plaskett is the current delegate to the U.S. House of Representatives for the Territory of the Virgin Islands. She achieved national notoriety as one of the House Impeachment Managers in the Second Impeachment Trial of former President Donald Trump in February 2021. Plaskett was born on May 13, 1966 in Kings County, Brooklyn, New York. Her parents are both from St. Croix. Her father was a New York City police officer and her mother a clerk in the court system. During her childhood, the family regularly traveled back to St. Croix, keeping her tied to island traditions and roots. She attended Brooklyn Friends School and Grace Lutheran school in New York for her early education.

In a bid to break the shutdown stalemate, President Donald Trump offered to extend temporary protections for young people brought to the U.S. illegally as children and those fleeing disaster zones in exchange for his long-promised border wall. But while Trump cast the move as a “common-sense compromise,” Democrats were quick to dismiss it as a “non-starter.”

Ben McAdams is running for Congress because what’s happening in Washington isn’t working for people. Politicians in both parties are out of touch. They don’t understand what it’s like to struggle to make ends meet. Donald Trump and an ineffective Congress are literally pulling food out of the mouths of children, ripping health care away from families, and running our economy to the brink all to put more cash in the pockets of the ultra-wealthy.

And we’ve learned that whenever The Donald says something, it’s true — even when it’s not.These days, he’s loving farmers to death. Trump has ignored the obvious need to get monopolistic ...

Jazz Club Hannover by Garteheim: Joscho Stephan in a amazing quintet, including Costel Nitescu on violin and Thimo Niesterok on trumpet. What a powerful combination with the strong rhythm group, namely Sven Jungbeck on guitar and Volker Kamp on bass. This event was planned as an open air concert, but caused by heavy rain it has been switched spontaniously in the AudimaGH`s hall of Gartenheim, Hannover. Maybe one of the reasons, why this concert was literally magic. Date: 5/19/2022
Joscho Stephan in einem faszinierenden Quintett. Eine unglaublich starke und außergewöhnliche Besetzung, mit Costel Nitescu an der Geige und Thimo Niesterok an der Trompete. Dazu die swingende Rhythmus Abteilung mit Sven Jungbeck und Volker Kamp am Bass. Ursprünglich war dieses Event als Open Air Veranstaltung am 19.05.2022 geplant, musste jedoch spontan aufgrund eines Unwetters nach drinnen verlegt werden. Vielleicht war es einer der Gründe, warum dieses Konzert so besonders und magisch war.
Caravan is an American jazz standard that was composed by Juan Tizol and Duke Ellington and first performed by Ellington in 1936. Irving Mills wrote lyrics, but they are rarely sung.
Caravan ist ein amerikanischer Jazz Standard, komponiert von Duke Ellington und dem Posaunisten Juan Tizol 1936. Die Interpretation von Joscho Stephan in Kombination mit Violine und Trompete ist sicherlich eine der außergewöhnlichsten Versionen dieses Klassikers.

Sylvia Vanderpool Robinson was an African American singer, songwriter, musician, record label executive, and record producer, best known for her work as founder and CEO of the Sugar Hill Records hip-hop label. She is credited for being the dynamic force behind two landmark hip-hop singles, “Rapper’s Delight” by the Sugar Hill Gang released in 1980 and “The Message” by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five in 1982. Robinson was born in 1936 as Sylvia Vanderpool in New York City. She attended Washington Irving High School in lower Manhattan until the age of fourteen, when she debuted singing blues with trumpet player Hot Lips Page and began recording music in 1950 for Columbia Records under the name Little Sylvia. In 1954 she teamed up with Mickey Baker, a guitarist from Kentucky, who taught her to play guitar. In 1956 the duo recorded the rock single “Love Is Strange” by Jody Williams and Bo Diddley, which reached No. 11 on the Billboard pop charts and topped R&B charts at the beginning of 1957. The duo split up in 1959, and later Sylvia married Joseph Robinson and resumed her solo career under the name Sylvia Robbins. Joe and Sylvia Robinson moved to New Jersey in 1966 […]
