After 20+ years of working in the music industry, Lindsay decided to create what he always thought was missing: a global 360 management consulting firm.
Bessie Smith "Empress of the Blues"
Crowned as Empress of the Blues, Bessie Smith earned the honor as the greatest classic blues singer of the 1920's.
According to the 1900 census, Bessie Smith was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee in July 1892. However the 1910 census recorded her birthday as April 15, 1894, a date that appears on all subsequent documents which was observed by the entire Smith family. Ironically, Bessie's tombstone, purchased by Janis Joplin and Juanita Green reflects the dates, 1895-1937.
At an early age Bessie began performing on the streets of Chattanooga. In pursuit of a better life, Bessie left Chattanooga in 1912 to join a traveling minstrel and vaudeville show as a dancer and singer with Pa and Ma Rainey. As a teenager, Ma Rainey became Bessie's mentor and she stayed with the show until 1915. She gradually developed her own following in the south and along the eastern seaboard. Ma Rainey greatly influenced Bessie's showmanship, however Bessie's elegant contralto and her hypnotizing delivery was very different from that of Rainey.
By the time of her death, Bessie was known around the world. She was a beloved diva who appeared with the best players of the day at sold out concerts in theaters coast to coast. Bessie's pleasing contralto and mesmerizing showmanship propelled her from poverty to international fame as a singer of "classic" blues tunes, many of which she wrote and co-wrote.
Before the Great Depression, Bessie was the highest-paid black entertainer in the world, collecting as much as two thousand dollars a week to sing such songs as her own, "Nobody Knows you When You're Down and Out," "Empty Bed Blues," and "Backwater Blues," accompanied by the finest musicians of the day, including Louis Armstrong, Lonnie Johnson, and Benny Goodman.
Because of her early stage experience, Bessie's repertoire was extensive by the time she made her first record in 1923. She primarily specialized in blues numbers, singing more by far than any female vocalist of the day. She also performed country blues, vaudeville, and jazz tunes in a show that completely captivated her audiences.
"Downhearted Blues" (b/w "Gulf Coast Blues"), Bessie's recording debut on Columbia (Race) Records, was an immediate hit when it was released in 1923 selling more than 750,000 copies that year. Throughout the 1920's, Bessie recorded with many of the great Jazz musicians of that era, including Fletcher Henderson, James P. Johnson, Coleman Hawkins, Don Redmond and Louis Armstrong. Her rendition of "St. Louis blues" with Armstrong is considered by most critics to be one of the finest recordings of the 1920's
Bessie Smith was one of the biggest African-American stars of the 1920's and was popular with both Whites and African-Americans. By 1931 the music industry shifted to a different sound. The Depression, radio, and sound movies had all damaged the record companies' ability to sell records, leaving Bessie without a label. In 1933, she recorded for the last time under the direction of John Hammond transitioning to more of a jazz style.
Bessie remained very popular in the South and continued to draw large crowds although the money was not as good as it was in the 1920's. Bessie had transitioned herself as a Swing musician and was on the verge of a comeback when her life was tragically cut short by an automobile accident in 1937. She was buried in Philadelphia, PA where thousands lined up to pay their final respects to the "Empress of the Blues." While Bessie had few pleasant childhood memories of Chattanooga, nor during a later return to the city as a performer, she is Chattanooga's most celebrated and fascinating artist in the blues and jazz genres!
On top of being an entrepreneur and business owner, Lindsay Guion is also a member of Ivy.com as well as The Recording Academy and a volunteer at the Obama Foundation.

"I felt that we were always close, but now we're even closer," the daughter said.
CHICAGO, IL — This Mother's Day, a local mom is receiving the best gift a parent could ever ask for: a second chance at life for her child. She donated part of her liver to her daughter, who has a rare liver disease. Arnela Hadzic, 21, received the transplant two weeks ago at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
"This meant the world to me not just because it's my mom, but also because it's another chance at life," Hadzic said. "I felt that we were always close, but now we're even closer."
Hadzic received a transplant from a deceased donor when she was 7 years old, but it was failing. She said having living donor made a huge difference.
"I had a much better recovery the second time around," Hadzic said.

For my first blog series of the year, I'm discussing what I see as the trends that will have the biggest impact on construction in 2016. To kick off the series, I gave some background on how low energy prices are driving much needed labor back into the construction workforce.
In this 2nd part of the series, we'll look at what has caused the ongoing labor shortage in the construction industry, and how these energy workers will help the industry greatly in 2016. If you are interested in new opportunities in electrical construction, sign up HERE for my weekly announcement email.
As the economy has started to come back, the demand for skilled labor in construction has continued to increase. However, there just haven't been enough quality construction professionals available to meet that demand. In addition, when energy prices were high and construction workers began to move into that industry after the housing crash, it further exasperated the labor shortage issue for large scale construction projects.
In 2015, something unbelievable happened. Construction companies actually had to turn business away because they didn't have the manpower to take on large scale projects. With the world energy market taking a dive in recent months, we're seeing an influx of skilled tradesmen coming back into the US and that is already having a positive impact on this labor shortage issue..
In 2016, companies in the construction industry will focus specifically on the biggest projects and the ones that pay the best. So what does that mean for the skilled tradesman out there? With these types of projects we're seeing larger labor budgets, which is leading to better wages for veteran workers and more career advancement opportunities for younger workers. If you fit into either one of those groups, 2016 promises to be a fruitful year for you!
If you've been watching or reading the news over the past several months, it's easy to have a negative view of things. The headlines have been all about the stock market losing value, Federal rate hikes, and China's ongoing problems. One thing that has snuck under the radar, though, is the construction boom that's been taking place in the United States.
There are a number of reasons that construction is doing so well but this article has some great insights on the various moving parts. In particular, the non-residential aspect of the industry has seen some of the greatest growth – which is great news for me as most of my clients operate in this space.
In addition to these industry growth projections, the generational shift that's taking place in the trades is going to continue to benefit the Millennial workforce.
In the 3rd post for this series, I'm going to dive into the Green trend that has been building over the last several years within the construction industry. We will look at how something that started out as a "nice to have" for high end non residential projects is quickly turning into a "must have" on construction projects at every level.
I'll also highlight some of the product lines and other new technologies that should have an immediate impact in 2016.


Supply-path optimization (SPO), or, as I like to call it, supply pathing, might not sound like the sexiest topic, but is suddenly the new buzzword of the moment.
Much like header bidding emerged as a solution for the supply side and gradually evolved into a buyer discussion, buyers have already been addressing supply pathing, and it is just starting to bleed into the sell side.
Now is the time for publishers to take note and join the supply pathing conversation.
Supply pathing, simply stated, is a buyer's way of assessing the most effective pathway to purchase a publisher's inventory.
Header bidding put publishers' inventory on the map, programmatically speaking, but it also created enormous stress on the buy side, with the same impression often appearing for sale in 10 or more exchanges. It's like publishers offered the coordinates to their inventory pool without a map. Supply pathing empowers the buy side to chart its own version of Google Maps and determine the most efficient route to each publisher.
Publishers quick to dismiss supply pathing as only a buy-side lever would be mistaken. Demand-side platforms (DSPs) and agencies are already making decisions, smartly or crudely, about the best place to buy impressions without any supply-side input.
Some DSPs navigate the influx of bid duplication by placing a selection mechanism on each incoming bid request to reduce queries per second (QPS). Agencies are now getting into the game, too, seeking transparency of the full supply ad stack from exchanges to publishers' waterfalls and asking questions about preferred supply-side platforms (SSPs).
SSPs are not necessarily addressing supply pathing for publishers, and some are filtering inventory to avoid being penalized for QPS.
Publishers that proactively lean in to supply pathing stand to benefit by ensuring that buyers know exactly where to connect with them, with each collectively arriving at the best outcome.
Any decision agencies and DSPs may be making on the optimal supply path without publisher input may lead to unintended side effects.
Inferences made by buyers could conflict with what a publisher sees as the best route because the buy side on its own can only operate on inferred information. The specifics of how a publisher organizes its waterfall, traffics each exchange in its ad server and even its SSP fee structures – all information that isn't transparent to the buyer – could and should influence those choices.
Nuances in different SSP setups, such as multi-size vs. single-size auctions, could impact the derived win rate. Without bringing both the supply- and buy-side perspectives together, supply pathing could lead to inefficient outcomes that clog rather than clear programmatic pipes. At worst, it could shut off the pipes that maximize publishers' avails.
Supply pathing could also end up inserting more technology layers between buyers and sellers, even though it should, in theory, bring them closer.
Technologies serving only the buy side may not achieve the best outcome in practice. Technologies tied to exchanges, such as Rubicon's acquisition of nToggle, will ultimately work to push their exchange over others. Supply pathing technologies will inevitably take their own cut of the pie too. These technologies could clutter an issue that may be much more simply solved by buyers and sellers talking directly to each other about supply pathing.
What supply pathing has going for it is its potential to push our industry toward fee transparency and clean auction dynamics.
Supply pathing can bring agencies and publishers together for new conversations. So many ad tech challenges can be solved by buyers simply talking to sellers. Publishers need to ask buyers how they are approaching supply pathing and share their preferred paths to make more effective decisions together.
Supply pathing will also expedite the adoption of ads.txt. Every publisher benefits by broadcasting the "right" supply paths, so buyers know they all lead to the same place. Ads.txt could perhaps even evolve into a gateway that signals publisher-preferred paths.
Publishers need to be cognizant of their impact on QPS and dial back where needed. Randomly throttling QPS does a service to no one. Focusing buyers' bids on the best pathways will create more bid density and move us closer to a unified auction.
Supply pathing may also force publishers to put a magnifying glass to their exchanges. Tertiary SSPs – aka potential back doors – should be thrown out. We need to stop saying yes to seemingly easy demand.
Like server-to-server and header bidding before it, all exchanges will want to be the chosen pipe. SSPs that reduce take rates could increase market share as buyers see higher win rates and more value is passed to the publisher. Supply pathing encourages competition, and publishers should press exchanges to test alternative fee structures.
Supply exchanges will be pressured to clean up their act and run transparent auctions. The threat of optimizing away from shady exchanges means that every exchange will benefit from operating under fair play. Publishers need to ask the same questions of our exchanges as buyers and cut off those that aren't working effectively.

Behind the Scenes: 'Monkeying Out' with the Tumble Monkeys at 'Festival of the Lion King'
by Jennifer Fickley-Baker, Editorial Content Manager, Walt Disney World Resort
One of my favorite parts of my job with the Disney Parks Blog is that I occasionally get to go behind the scenes and try out something that is really amazing, like stunt car driving at "Lights! Motors! Action! Extreme Stunt Show," or learning stage combat at the "Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular."
My most recent adventure took me to "Festival of the Lion King" at Disney's Animal Kingdom, where I was lucky enough to spend some time with a few stars from the show – the fan-favorite Tumble Monkeys.
In case you haven't seen "Festival of the Lion King," the show celebrates the story of Simba the lion cub through live music, dance, puppetry, fireknife, and more. The Tumble Monkey scene adds humor into the story when a group of monkeys bounce, climb, flip, jump and swing in a hilarious gymnastics routine.
In reality, the Tumble Monkeys are a group of highly trained gymnasts who studied the sport up through their college years. In reality, I have not done a cartwheel since about age 7. This made it a pretty interesting challenge to go backstage and learn some of their (beginner) stunts. They also shared with me a team secret, which they call "Monkeying Out." Check it all out below.
You can see "Festival of the Lion King" at Disney's Animal Kingdom several times each day. Check your My Disney Experience app for showtimes during your visit.

Q: Packing an exe + dll into one executable (not .NET)
Possible Duplicate:
How can a C++ windows dll be merged into a C# application exe?

Is anybody aware of a program that can pack several DLL and a .EXE into one executable. I am not talking about .NET case here, I am talking about general DLLs, some of which I generate in C++, some of others are external DLL I have no control over.
My specific case is a python program packaged with py2exe, where I would like to "hide" the other DLL by packing them. The question is general enough though.
The things that had a look at:

*

*ILMerge: specific to .NET

*NETZ: specific to .NET

*UPX: does DLL compression but not multiple DLL + EXE packing

*FileJoiner:

Almost got it. It can pack executable + anything into one exe but when opened, it will launch the default opener for every file that was packed. So, if the user user dlldepend installed, it will launch it (becaues that's the default dll opener).

Maybe that's not possible ?

Summary of the answers:
DLL opening is managed by the OS, so packing DLL into executable means that at some point, they need to be extracted to a place where the OS can find them. No magic bullet.
So, what I want is not possible.
Unless...
We change something in the OS. Thanks Conrad for pointing me to ThinInstall, which virtualise the application and the OS loading mechanism. With ThinInstall, it is possible to pack everything in one exe (DLL, registry settings, ...).

A: Have a look at BoxedApp. Good luck!

A: Have a look at Thinstall ThinApp

A: Try Powerpacker.
Evalaze is another free virtualization solution.
Enigma Virtual Box FREEWARE Edition

A: If the executable statically links to the DLL, i.e. there are no calls to LoadLibrary, then I don't think there are any mechanisms to pack the DLL into the executable since the DLL load is done by the OS application loader prior to the "main" function being called. The only way around this as far as I'm aware is to put the exe and the dlls into another exe. This wrapper exe unpacks the real exe and dlls into a temporary folder and starts the exe, deleting the files when the exe exits.
If you are calling LoadLibrary/Ex to load the dll, extract the dll from the exe resources to a file prior to the call to LoadLibrary/Ex.
The real problem is that the LoadLibrary function does a lot of fixing up of addresses when the library is loaded and only works when loading from a file.

A: You can add the DLLs as binary resources in your EXE. At startup, your EXE can then extract the resources into a temporary folder, and LoadLibrary() the resulting DLLs.

A: Have you looked at my cheap-utility list?
There supposed to be several inexpensive (i.e., rather cheap) tools
that would link non-net app's DLL(s) together, such as:
1.) Molebox Pro (eu 100)
2.) BitArt's Fusion ($160)
3.) VB Wrap ($100)
4.) PE Bundle ($30)
Additionally,  at "www.oreans.com" you might find a
protection-oriented program bundle for eu 320, that,
as they claim, can link either Win32 or ".Net" files
together; however, when I asked them for a specific
scenarion, where I would use their "XBundler For
Win32/.NET" in order to pack a ".Net" EXE, and then
would try to run it on Windos 98 (without the framework),
they said it wouldn't work. :-(
EXE Admirer

A: You can use valgrid, thinstall or boxedapp....
I prefer the latter.

A: MoleBox Pro does exactly what you want, but it is shareware, and, unless you buy a full version, packed executables will show a Dialog Box at startup, saying something like "This file was packed by a trial version of MoleBox, please do not distribute it"

But it won't work for Windows native dlls, one thing occurrs to me is we can just use the linker to link all the objs together, regardless of which project they belongs to originally. Of course, they need to have similar link options.

Q: How to validate a Checkbox form in Codeigniter and re-populate checked Obivously, I have 2 problems.

*

*When I submit a checkbox form which is an array value and non-cheched form, It doesn't show me validation error such as 'this field is required'. It shows error when I check one of them. Normally it should have shown me even though I don't check anything on the form and just press submit.

*How can I repopulate a checkbox as checked when I submit as checked. Think like set_value. In set_value it populates previous data. At this I want it to be auto checked when if I had submitted.
My controller
function preferences() {
    $user = $this->ion_auth->user()->row();
    $data['first_name'] = $user->first_name;
    $data['last_name'] = $user->last_name;
    $data['user_id'] = $user->id;
    $data['address'] = $this->main_model->office_zip_match($user->zipcode);

    $this->form_validation->set_rules('days[]', 'Days', 'required');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('contact[]', 'Contact', 'required');

    if ($this->form_validation->run() == true) {
        echo print_r($this->input->post());
    } else {
        $this->load->view('auth/preferences', $data);
    }
}

My view:

Days to Deliver

<?php echo form_open('signup/preferences'); ?>
<input type="checkbox" name="days[]" value="monday" id="days" /> Monday

<input type="checkbox" name="days[]" value="tuesday" id="days" /> Tuesday

<input type="checkbox" name="days[]" value="wednesday" id="days" /> Wednesday

<input type="checkbox" name="days[]" value="thursday" id="days" /> Thursday

<input type="checkbox" name="days[]" value="friday" id="days" /> Friday

How would you like us to contact you? (When package arrives / for all other issues

<input type="checkbox" name="contact[]" value="email" id="contact" /> Email

<input type="checkbox" name="contact[]" value="text" id="contact" /> Text

<input type="checkbox" name="contact[]" value="cell" id="contact" /> Cell

<input type="submit" value="Send" />

<?php echo form_close(); ?>
<?php echo validation_errors(); ?>

A: The issue is that browsers, by specification, aren't supposed to send a value for unchecked checkboxes. Checkboxes are, by definition, optional fields.  What should the value be if it's unchecked?  Null? 0? HTML doesn't have a built-in handler for this use of checkboxes.
But, there are some workarounds.  I like to use javascript to enable a hidden field with the "unchecked" value I want.  For example (with jQuery):
<input type="checkbox" name="foo" value="1" />

This isn't as much a CI issue as it is an "html form interface" issue.

A: Firstly; validate your checkbox using a custom callback, you can do whatever you want to validate the contents.
Secondly; use an if to set the checked="checked".
$my_option_values is a hash array of the checkbox options.
<input type="checkbox" name="my_option[]" value="blah"
<?php ( in_array('blah', $_POST['my_option']) || in_array('blah', $my_option_values) ) ? print 'checked="checked"' : FALSE; ?> />

If you want, make it a function and put it in a helper file.

A: As you are using the form helper, then you can use the following way.
<?php foreach (array('monday', 'tuesday', 'wednesday', 'thursday', 'friday') AS $day) : ?>
<?php echo form_checkbox('days[]', $day, in_array($day, (array)$this->input->post('days'))) . ucfirst($day) ?>

<?php endforeach ?>

<?php foreach (array('email', 'text', 'cell') AS $contact) : ?>
<?php echo form_checkbox('contact[]', $contact, in_array($contact, (array)$this->input->post('contact'))) . ucfirst($contact) ?>

<?php endforeach ?>

A: You can use:
<input type="checkbox" name="mailing_address" value="0" <?php echo set_checkbox('mailing_address', '0'); ?> />

In Controller, you can check it:
var_dump($this->input->post('mailing_address'));

City Room | Senate Deadlock Puts Yonkers in a Budget Squeeze
Senate Deadlock Puts Yonkers in a Budget Squeeze
By Danny Hakim
July 6, 2009 5:25 pm July 6, 2009 5:25 pm
The latest victim of the State Senate deadlock is Yonkers, the fourth largest city in New York.
"Unless something's resolved in the next two weeks, we will run out of money and we will literally have no money to run the city," Mayor Philip A. Amicone, a Republican, said in an interview on Friday.
Here's the problem: Two Yonkers-related bills have been held up in the Senate stalemate, which showed no signs of ending Monday as it entered its fifth week. One would extend the city's ability to add a 10 percent surcharge to the state income tax. A second would allow the city to collect a mortgage recording tax.
Together, the bills would bring in just $13 million of the city's budget of roughly $900 million. But because Yonkers was long under a control board, the state comptroller must certify its budget. And the current budget cannot be certified unless the bills pass. Further, the city's budget must be certified before Yonkers can send out its property tax bills. That's a problem, because Yonkers' new fiscal year started at the beginning of July.
"Right now we are operating on the surplus, the reserves we have, and those reserves will run out in the next two weeks," Mr. Amicone said.
He has been exploring options with Gov. David A. Paterson and Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli — the three spoke on a conference call Monday afternoon.
"Assuming the stalemate continues, the administration is looking into options outside of legislative action that may alleviate some of Yonkers's most immediate concerns," said Peter E. Kauffmann, a spokesman for the governor.
Among the options being discussed is one that would have the state finding a way to advance revenues to the city to cover its budget hole.
As Mr. Amicone put it, "I don't care if they come up with a black box full of cash."
"We will not shut down," he said, adding: "If we have to send out tax bills without authorization, I'll do it. We'll worry about a challenge in court later."

This is one big mess: start to finish! Yonkers: go broke! who cares…
VoteIndependent July 6, 2009 · 6:36 pm
Somehow I don't think this will make a difference in the stalemate. We have legislators that think politics is more important than the people they represent. It is a disgrace.
Best of luck to Yonkers.
Perley J. Thibodeau July 6, 2009 · 6:47 pm
As the song says;
"Who cares what banks fail in Yonkers-As long as you have a kiss that conquers."
On the other hand; I've never found, " a kiss that conquers."
David L. NYC July 6, 2009 · 7:25 pm
It's heartbreaking to see this Senate impasse drag on as long as it has. On the other hand, as long as it lasts, the citizens of Yonkers can avoid having more ridiculous taxes foisted upon them.
A 10% surcharge on state income tax? There's no provision in either the state or U.S. Constitutions for permitting "surcharges" on income taxes!
And, as long as the impasse remains, we in New York City also have a brief respite before the sales tax increase comes into effect.
Part of the problems appears to be New York City's/New York State's belief that the we're all much richer than we really are.
J July 6, 2009 · 8:53 pm
Just send out the tax bills. Most people will pay – you're going to have to eventually pay anyway, and you'd have to hire a lawyer to challenge the tax.
Tess July 6, 2009 · 9:04 pm
I agree, the State not being able to pass more ridiculous tax laws is the best thing to happen here in a long time. They should just permanently send these jokers home and close up Albany. We have enough laws already to last for the next 1000 years and we'd be saving a huge amount of money on useless salaries, pet projects, outright corruption, etc. I wouldn't even mind if the state went into bankruptcy, perhaps then we can clear off all the outrageous pension costs that are built into the system and perhaps someday have a normal tax rate in this state!

Well nat if Parker or Monserrate go to jail it will also be 31-30 and they are actually indicted.

Pat could appoint, Gianiaris deems,
A Lieutenant Gov'nor, it seems,
But Pat hesitates.
And endless debates
Tear the Senate apart at its seams.
Is Pat afraid that someone new
Will do what he now cannot do,
Get the Senate to move
In a suitable groove,
Emerge from a stalemated stew?

I, for one, have been blessed with good fortune, and consider it my patriotic duty to pay taxes that support my government and would not hesitate to pay voluntary taxes that help the less fortunate, and Yonkers, survive.

You should see duplicate requests submitted. This is how NTLM works with the HTTP post operation.
The first HTTP post request submitted should contain an NTLM type-1 message and NO post parameter data. The server should respond with an HTTP 401 error response and an NTLM type-2 message. The server should not attempt to do any sort of processing on the first request, other than rejecting it with the HTTP 401 error response.
The second post request submitted should contain an NTLM type-3 message AND the post parameter data. The server should process this request.

About Translation: "The sorrow with any translation"
"The sorrow with any translation is that you're never really quite there, [but] you may be someplace almost as good."
A translator must strive to see the work in its own terms, [Ruden] believes, while knowing that such a goal will always be just out of reach. "But it's something that you keep pushing and pushing and pushing, until you pass out from exhaustion."
The entire article is very much worth reading, and a welcome change of pace from the humdrum translations we might be working on.

In Memoriam – Fred Stites
On September 20, I learned of the death of Fred Stites who joined Grand Performances in August 1995 as Production Manager. Our sincere condolences to Fred's family and friends. No matter what your affiliation with Grand Performances, you benefited from Fred's passion for the performing arts and his assurance that each performance on the stages at California Plaza would be memorable.
We all know that in this pandemic it is not safe to gather in community to both grieve and celebrate loved ones who have transitioned. I wanted to provide a space where Fred could be remembered by those who worked with and/or were mentored by him.
When I read these anecdotes and memories of Fred, it is clear why he was so loved and admired. He had retired by the time I came to Grand Performances in May 2017. Yet whenever I saw Fred at performances or at holiday Board/staff gathering he would never hesitate to ask how I was doing and offer words of encouragement.
We would also like to invite you to share your memories of Fred, so that we can continue to celebrate his legacy. If you have ever enjoyed a special moment or experience with Fred, please reply to this email and let us know. Many current and former members of our community have shared their feelings below, and we would love to hear from you too.
Rest in Peace Fred Stites.

Remembrance from GP Staff
Zindy Landeros
Fred was a good person. He had a gift. He could easily talk to all kinds of people and make new friends including the homeless that many people don't care to know about. He had a good heart.
He was a good friend. He was always there for anyone that needed a helping hand. He also loved to eat just like me. He loved all types of food. When we would go out to lunch, we tried not to hit the same place twice.
He loved all types of music. He had a good ear. He was also a great father and grandpa. He loved his family. Chris and Alana are fortunate to have had him as a Dad and I to have worked with him.
Azul Amaral
Grand Performances would not be possible without Fred Stites. His love for Los Angeles, his support for performing arts, and his demand for high-quality production will forever guide our organization. His legacy is evident from the loving words of his colleagues, friends and family.
Geoff Gallegos (Double G)
daKAH Hip Hop Orchestra
I have many memories of Fred Stites, my favorite is from the first daKAH show at Grand Performances in July of 2001. We had just finished our first set, and were running behind schedule. On my way backstage, he pulled me aside, and reminded me of the 10:10pm curfew. I said something like, "Yeah, I got it." He didn't buy that one.
He reiterated that the curfew is 10:10pm, and after that, he would pull the plug.
I said, "I got it." That didn't stick either.
He looked me directly in the eye, and made sure I understood. He also wasn't letting me out of sight until he knew that I got it. The curfew is 10:10pm. He was checking the clock on the side stage, and made sure I saw it as well.
I realized at that point that I had to engage him, and make sure he understood that I would comply. I said something like "I understand, we will be silent by 10:09pm. I understand that the sound will cut off, and we will be in the dark." That one worked.
At 10:09, we played our last note. He immediately came up to me, very surprised and happy, and thanked me for keeping my word.
That show set off a positive relationship between us, and a pattern of us keeping our word to each other. After dozens of shows, and lots of preproduction, we came to trust each other. Our meetings were always productive and succinct, all business, no B.S.
This is how I remember Fred, as a very professional, kind, and benevolent production manager, with the coolness factor of having played in the Tonight Show Band with Doc Severinsen. He will be missed.
Dennis Jaggard
Crew member, Musician Ten Foot Pole
I'm grieving for my amazing friend/boss/mentor Fred Stites, my production manager at Grand Performances where I was an audio tech/mixer for many amazing concerts/events before I gravitated to touring. He brought me on a national jazz tour, one of my first audio tours; I handled sound while he did lights, backline and production management – he drove his car, so he could load in early and avoid conflicts from his fondness of critiquing bus drivers' techniques.
Fred was one of the most eccentric opinionated and warm people I have known. He loved innovation, and often seemed to prefer whichever approach was the least conventional. He was a very hard worker and was very demanding of his crew, but always with a motivation of providing great quality and service for the artists. He was incredibly supportive and warm, enthusiastically coming to at least two Ten Foot Pole concerts. Music was very important to him (he was a drummer before he shifted into a production career). He also loved food and would smile wickedly over his meals/desserts portions if it seemed we might give a nagging glance. I learned a lot about relating to artists and providing detail-oriented service while under his management, but more importantly, I saw how a boss could be demanding yet kind, critical yet supportive.
Having spent almost fifteen years prior performing and touring, I cannot overstate the relief that our band felt in the capable hands of Fred and his crew. In 1996, Desborde and Sabiá, two music groups that I co-founded, performed a Tribute Concert to Violeta Parra at California Plaza Presents, now known as Grand Performances. This concert was being recorded live for an album to be released later that year. The number of musicians varied from three to fourteen and the instrumentation involved traditional Latin America wind, percussion, and stringed instruments. Known for our vocal blend we were always concerned that our vocals would not get lost and that the many acoustic instruments would be mixed in the right proportion to the electric guitars and keyboards. We had brought our own sound/recording engineer with us to minimize the amount of post-production work we would need to do in the studio.
Unlike many of our other soundchecks and performances on tour, there were no confusing looks when the techs saw our armadillo charango, coupled with an accordion, quenas and zampoñas. Not even all the open mikes and the natural elements of the wind and temperature changes as the evening cooled at Cal Plaza flustered the sound crew. The result was both an amazing performance, but also a wonderful live recording with little post-production adjustment required.
Remembrance from Former Staff
Michael Alexander
Founding Executive Director
Fred's interest in people included interests in cultures beyond his own. He set an example of how to live an interesting and productive life; how to contribute to the health of a community through the arts; and how to reach out to meet new people and discover new experiences with an open mind and heart.
Fred brought his aesthetic sense and performing arts history to Grand Performances. His expertise as a sound engineer gave him the "chops" to figure out how to deal with the weird acoustics of an outdoor space surrounded by two glass-clad skyscrapers, a hotel, a multi-story senior housing project and an open space (with water at the base of the stage). By designing the sound for each zone (as he liked to call them), he made sure that each audience area got the fidelity it deserved.
His passion to care for artists made all the difference as we were building our reputation as a credible presenter. This care for each artist and his years of experience on the road made it possible for him to instill a sense of confidence among the traveling techies that they were going to be in good hands. Many artists started out (particularly for the noon concerts) thinking that they had ended up being booked into a shopping center. Fred's approach and leadership helped them realize we were just a new way of connecting artists and people and that they were going to be in very good hands and that their art was being protected by a very competent crew.
There are no shortages of stories that Fred told about his adventures with performers. Sid Caesar told him humor demands white light. Doc Severinson saw him preparing mics to cover his own percussion instruments and asked him to do the sound for the whole Severinson band which is how Concertech got its start. (He also appeared on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show when an extra percussionist was needed.) Mel Torme relied on him as did numerous other touring artists. He ran the lights for us when we presented a Middle East music program in one of the historic downtown theaters, the Orpheum. This type of performance called for lights to keep changing during each piece during the performance. Unlike many other lighting designers, Fred played the light board like it was a musical instrument. His fingers danced across the panel changing colors right on the beat. I'd never seen a lighting designer do that and haven't since.
People that the rest of us (I am embarrassed to say) would ignore, he befriended. He brought them to the Plaza as audience and sometimes found ways to give them work to do. He discovered 'dives' where some of the most interesting meals were served. He was a great cook himself, known for his Korean spareribs that he prepared at 4th of July parties for years, and loved discovering new foods and new places to eat.
Fred was passionate about discovering new things, about politics (he was just this side of a radical on many issues) and about people. He empowered his crew to do their best. He got along with just about everybody that was part of Grand Performances and California Plaza. He loved to solve problems.
We retired from Grand Performances just a few years apart. I know that he was very happy sharing time with his children and grandchildren. I know that he was also very devoted to other members of his family. He was proud that he had had incredible musical opportunities as a youngster in Kalamazoo, Michigan and a great musical education at North Texas State.
Everyone of us who had Fred in our lives are the richer for it!
Leigh Ann Hahn
Director of Programming
Fred loved music and cared deeply about art and technical aspects of it. He was chiefly responsible for the extremely high-quality production values that became a bragging point for all who were part of the GP team throughout the decades. Fred was an avuncular fellow – generous with his knowledge, life stories and genuine care for all who crossed his path.
When I learned that Fred had passed, my chest hurt from the sadness and loss. Flashback to one of the very first El Vez sound checks, someone from staff asked if it was too loud. Proceeding to explain the sound check process more thoroughly – Fred looked at me straight in the eye and said that music should be not only heard, but that we should feel it. That this type of music, these sound waves, should be felt in the chest. Quirky, deeply knowledgeable, always curious, committed to the highest production standards possible and proud of his children and grandchildren. He'll be greatly missed – I picture him turning around as he would leave my office, flash a peace sign and share a quick, "Fred and love" and my heart hurts for our world's loss.
Katie Luna
Fred had an amazing warmth. You could always tell when Fred walked into a space. Everyone lit up with smiles, hugs, and excitement. Even when I first met Fred, I felt like I'd know him for ages. Everyone wanted to be in his circle – and he was ready to welcome you!
And his passion for production and music was unmatched. The artists that performed under Fred's watch trusted him unwaveringly. They knew that they could deliver the best performance possible thanks to his expertise and knowledge.
I am lucky to have known Fred both professionally and as a friend. He will be truly missed, particularly by the arts community of Los Angeles.
Lee Lawlor
Fred and I worked together for five years and I remember lots of vibrant staff meetings and passionate season budget conversations. Fred was deeply caring and thorough and adaptable. Fred loved to exceed the expectations of visiting artists, protect the crew, and take insightful photos.
Words and ideas I associate with Fred Stites:
Passionate – He had many passions but his passion for music was always there, that included caring for and supporting artists he took great care in making them feel like welcome and honored guests.
Opportunity – Fred found many ways to create opportunities for others. Many of the crew that worked for him over the years have experienced this over and over. It is one of the many things that I personally try to do to respect and emulate a mentor.
Mentor – There are many of us who worked with Fred who looked up to him as a Mentor. When tasked with a new situation we would often find ourselves asking what would Fred do? And taking that option into careful consideration of our choices.
Music – He loved music. He would often get so into a particular album that it would stay on continuous repeat in the office for days on end. It was something that gave him some comfort and for some of us sharing space with him it could get a little annoying. We would politely ask for something new or turn it off if he wasn't around.
Family – Family was important to Fred. While there were times when work kept him away from home, he missed his family and talked about them often.
Food – Whether it was for him or for others, making sure there was something to snack on or drink nearby was part of his welcoming hospitality. There was a time when he was on a personal quest for the best burger in Los Angeles. The quest didn't seem to end as he would find a new best burger every few months after searching dives and diners in neighborhoods all over LA.
Friendship – Meeting new people and continuing relationships with those he knew for years, Fred was always making friends, from the homeless person that most would ignore to the celebrity, there was a friend and a story to go with it.
Fred – Upon learning that the Danish word for peace was fred, he incorporated that into a parting saying "fred and love".
Toby Tittle
GP Sound Engineer
Fred is the only boss I've had that I felt always strived for the best quality productions possible and for a safe and healthy work environment with equal and enthusiastic care. He became a close friend and mentor over the years and was always there to talk about the world, work, gods, people, love, and whatever tangent struck us. I can't imagine meeting anyone with a better grasp on loving life for what it is. I'll always miss having his perspective in my life… and his crazy stories and questionable jokes too.
Kerrie Blaisdell
Fred was a legend. He cared deeply for his friends and crew and was always good for a dirty joke and a spot of lunch. Fred and Love, always!
