The Ernie Peniston Band Plays Blues Fest, Launches Live Album

By Rick Penhallegon

Davenport, Iowa - June 9, 2014 - The Ernie Peniston Band goes on stage in Davenport at the opening night of The Mississippi Valley Blues Fest on July 3 at 10:00 PM.  The group is back in the Quad-Cities for the second time this year, featuring acclaimed frontman Ernie Peniston, an all-star rhythm section, and a new live album.

Performing a tight fusion of original music, Chicago-style blues, and R&B, the band's Blues Fest appearance coincides with the launch of "Live at The Muddy Waters," which was captured during a February 2014 appearance at The Muddy Waters in Bettendorf.  "The room was electric that night between the crowd and the band, and you can hear it in the recording.  It was also a very special night, because it was a gathering of extraordinary musicians and long-time friends that hadn't played together in over 20 years," says Peniston.

Album Availability

The album is available via iTunes for pre-sale now, and the full album will be available for download through iTunes and the band's Facebook page on July 3.

Physical CD's will be available at Blues Fest and online at CD Baby on July 3.

About the Band

Peniston was inducted into the Iowa Blues Hall of Fame in 2003.  He's shared the stage with Prince, The Temptations, Koko Taylor, Lonnie Brooks, James Brown, Albert Collins, and many others. He also spent four years as the frontman with Blind Pig recording artists, Chicago Rhythm & Blues Kings, traveling the US and Europe.

The Ernie Peniston Band was formed in the late 80's and currently consists of a reunited, early-90's line-up: Ernie Peniston (Lead Vocal); Joe Collins (Guitar); Darren "Bo" Butler (Bass); Manuel Lopez III (Keys); and Rick Penhallegon (Drums) - all of whom got their start in and around the Quad-Cities.

Are Baby Boomers Doomed to Irrelevance in the Workplace?

By Ginny Grimsley
Media Expert Shares Tips for Aging Workers

Boomers may want to recall one of the poets they grew up reading, Dylan Thomas, and his most famous poem, named for its first line, "Do not go gentle into that good night," a desperate appeal to resist the trappings of old age.

"As they retire, baby boomers need to stay true to their reputation for grand statements, and to mobilize their skill set in the business world," says media expert Steve Kayser, author of "The Greatest Words You've Never Heard," (www.stevekayser.com).

"In fact, many older Americans may have little choice but to adapt their mindset and survive longer in their careers if they want to maintain something resembling their current lifestyle during retirement."

Kayser lists a few trends that may incentivize aging workers to clock in for a few more years:

• The number of Americans 55 and older will almost double between now and 2030 - from 60 million today to 107.6 million, according to the United States Census Bureau. That will likely strain public safety nets such as Social Security and Medicare.

• American life expectancy is at an all-time high, and death rates are at an all-time low, which means some people will outlive their retirement savings.

• The global economic crisis has wiped out or severely affected millions of middle- and senior-aged people's life savings.

But with an increasingly competitive pool of professionals whose skill sets need to be regularly updated, how can boomers stay in the game?

Kayser quotes Alvin Toffler: "The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn."

He discusses his method for how older workers can maintain their value - by staying "R-E-L-E-V-A-N-T."

•  What it means to learn, unlearn and relearn. The ever-shifting sands of technology pose a special challenge to older workers. Younger professionals not only grew up working and entertaining themselves with screens, they also learned to adapt to technological leaps. A program you learn today may not be relevant in a few years, so keep an open and flexible mind.

•  Being R-E-L-E-V-A-N-T... Take this mnemonic device to heart: Risk, Experiment, Listen and Learn, Engage, Value, Attitude of gratitude, No to negativity, and Time. "This is an ongoing, evolving note to keep in your mind no matter your professional situation," Kayser says. "I've been around a lot of charismatic and effervescent folks in their 70s and 80s who are still successful and growing, both on a personal and business level. The acronym encompasses the ideas that seem to promote a proactive life."

•  Answer the question, "What resonates with you?" This is a deceptively deep question when you apply it to your life's trajectory. If life hasn't turned out to be what you expected it would 30 years ago, then it's time to recalibrate how you see yourself, especially if that's as a perpetual pre-retiree. If you're not sure of how you see yourself in today's setting, start with what the spiritual writer Joseph Campbell called the "moving power of your life," which can be sensed by the things that resonate within you. The things that resonate within you, such as an unusual book, may just be the compass you need to find your way.

Junior High Kids going to college to learn leadership!

By Mary McNeil
The "Leadership Squad" at Edison Jr High is spending a few days on a college campus to learn how to be effective leaders....

(Rock Island, IL)  There are 7 eighth grade students from Edison Junior High school going to the University of Illinois Extension Summer Illini Academy in Leadership later this month.   They will be living and easting in the dorm for four days.  They will be learning about different leadership styles and attending Leadership training with about 300 to 400 students from around the state.   The Leadership Squad at Edison Junior High School is funded through the 21st CCLC "Lights  ON" for Learning program which partners with the University of Illinois Extension and Mrs. Diane Baker.

Site Coordinator, Susan Witmer, says the learning that will take place there is unmeasurable.   "Without this great community partnership, our students would not have this opportunity to see what it is like to live on a college campus, participate in community service projects in the Champaign area and see some of what college life is like."

Students will be on the University of Illinois campus from June 22 through June 25.  The students attending include Man Lun, Paw Ka Ku, Dakota Tello-Goossens, Mykeisha Wells, Rashawn Overton, Patience Mutoni and Ethan Wiley.
