by Gregg Chadwick Jackie Robinson  "A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives." -Jackie Robinson Today marks the 66th anniversary of Jackie Robinson's first game for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Jackie Robinson was the first African-American baseball player to compete in the major leagues when he joined the Dodgers in 1947. Robinson broke baseball's color line and ended a sixty year era of segregation in professional baseball. Robinson's career with the Dodgers lasted only ten years. But in that time, he won six pennants and a World Series title. Robinson retired in 1957 and was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962. I was heartened to see that the new film " 42 ", based on Robinson's momentous debut, has exceeded box office expectations.  Today in honor of Robinson, every player in Major League Baseball    will wear Jackie Robinson’s No. 42.  Rachel Robinson at the stadium.

by Gregg Chadwick If this was the way the world ended on 12 21 12, those of us gathered at UCLA's Royce Hall for the second night of Rufus and Martha Wainwright's Christmas 101   were being ushered into eternity with heavenly voices.  Rufus and Martha Wainwright, the son and daughter of   Loudon Wainwright III and  Kate McGarrigle - who passed away in 2010 from a rare sarcoma cancer, both possess extraordinary voices and mesmerizing stage presence. Their combined talents bolstered by musical kin and comrades, including Emmylou Harris, folk singer Maria Muldaur's daughter Jenni Muldaur, the legendary Van Dyke Parks, former Eels drummer Butch Norton, Sloan Wainwright, Lucy Wainwright Roche, Carrie Fisher, Rufus' husband Jorn Weisbrodt, and more , brought holiday cheer and at times poignant retrospection to last night's concert. Christmas 101 continues   a concert tradition begun in 2005 by Kate McGarrigle and her sister Anna. As well as be...

Jackie Robinson during his collegiate years in Los Angeles "A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives." -Jackie Robinson "When Jackie Robinson took the field in Brooklyn 65 years ago, he transcended the sport he loved and helped change our country in the most powerful way imaginable. It is a privilege for Major League Baseball to celebrate Jackie's enduring legacy each year, and we are proud that every April 15th, our young fans around the world have an opportunity to learn everything that the No. 42 stands for -- courage, grace and determination." - Major League Baseball Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig  Today marks the 65th anniversary of Jackie Robinson's first game for the Brooklyn Dodgers.

By Gregg Chadwick "The university was controlled by and had to fight for intellectual purity against the Church, then it had to fight against the crown, and now it's against the corporation." Gordon Davies, Director of Virginia's Council of Higher Education 2002 Since the University of California System was founded in 1868, generations of Californians have built the UC System into the world renowned institution that it is today through their taxes, gifts, and hard work. The UCLA Anderson School of Management proposes to take a program, buildings, and facilities built with public tax dollars and student tuition and without public, student or governmental oversight turn public property into a private entity. This move would abandon the University of California Charter, give away the equity of generations of Californians, load students with ever increasing tuition bills, effectively deny the Californian middle class access to a school built by Californians for the Cali...
