I think it’s probably easier to raise twenty acres of corn today than it was in the old days. Just the hand labor alone would support my statement. But no modern farmer would raise only twenty acres of corn! He expands to fill the vacuum! Gotta justify the machinery!

Now here’s a truly special holiday gift: The Jazz Standard debut of the soul–stirring Spanish Harlem Orchestra, a thirteen–strong New York collective of musicians and vocalists without peer for on–stage excitement and musical precision. Now in its fifteenth year under the direction of pianist/leader Oscar Hernández, the SHO has collected two GRAMMY Awards – the first in 2002 for Across 110th Street as Best Salsa/Merengue Album, the second in 2007 for Viva La Tradición as Best Tropical Latin Album. The group’s latest CD, the self–titled Spanish Harlem Orchestra, features special guests Chick Corea and Joe Lovano on its gorgeous closing track "You And The Night And The Music." "The music that the orchestra’s members helped create merges ferocious Afro–Caribbean rhythms, arrangements that rev up hard–riffing horns and modern jazz harmonies, vocals that can be suavely romantic or flamboyantly improvisatory, and lyrics that encompass both the pleasures of the dance floor and the pride and aspirations of the barrio."

The flipside of the Audi’s ultimate composure is that, day to day, it’s a supreme all-rounder. In peak hour traffic, where the Merc would always feel edgy, and the BMW out of sorts, the RS5 becomes a refined executive express, tootling along in Comfort mode, while letting the auto gearbox do the shifting.

Who would have thought the Newcastle Knights, involved in their own bitter turf war with the Super League Mariners for the hearts and souls of Hunter league fans, would become the saviours of the sport with the grand fi nal labelled “the game that saved rugby league”.
