texting behind the wheel

"I've got a 22-year old who has been in three accidents because of texting while she's driving," Bob Compan of Farmers Insurance said

probably seen it. You might even do it. But some Nevada lawmakers say text messaging while driving is dangerous and should be illegal. The legislature is considering a bill that would make it illegal to text and drive.

"I can't tell you how many times I've driven down I15 and saw someone who was too focused on typing something into their cell phone to pay attention to where they were going," Sheila Breeden a Democrat from Clark County said.

Law enforcement officers say they've also see the results of texting and driving on Nevada roadways.

David Kallas of tracted drivers these days. And if we can do anything to save one officer having to go to an accident, one fatal investigator from have to go to some place because somebody died, because they were not paying attention to what they're doing, that anything we can enact this year will be a benefit to our communities.

Geraldine de Haas

Geraldine de Haas - Self Titled Elsa Progressive Records 5804 (1978)

Geraldine de Haas, "The Jazz Lady" was born in Newark, New Jersey on January 16, 1935. As a young woman, de Haas sang and toured with her brother and sister as Andy and the Bey Sisters, initially starting out in the Miami club scene in 1958. When they returned to New York after several months, they went to several auditions that promised them a few weeks of club dates in Spain and London. However, their music proved wildly popular, and they went on a whirlwind tour all across Europe that lasted a year and a half. While the trio was in Europe, they became the featured act at the world famous Blue Note in Paris, and were featured in a jazz film directed by Roger Vadim. De Haas and her siblings returned to the United States in 1960, and began performing at jazz clubs and festivals across the country, and made several recordings, as well. The trio finally disbanded in 1966.

The early 1970s found de Haas joining the Free Street Theater in Chicago, and her theater career continued over the next two decades, with performances in Hair, Showboat and To Be Young, Gifted and Black, and numerous jazz performances, as well. She also began producing events during the 1970s, and in 1983, she presented the first Jazzfest at the South Shore Cultural Center in Chicago, which continues on to this day. De Haas also earned her B.A. in music education in 1980 from Chicago State University, and has taken other courses to continue her education since. In 1981, de Haas founded Jazz Unites, Inc., to further the growth and appreciation of jazz, and to educate people through the use of jazz. Since 1993, she has served as the president, CEO and artistic director. Over the course of her career, she has shared the stage with such jazz legends as Count Basie, Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, and her favorite, the late bass player Ray Brown.

I rediscovered this recently languishing in my collection and found myself really enjoying it - I hope you're the same.
