# Tom Rogers (baseball)

**Thomas Andrew "Shotgun" Rogers** (February 12, 1892 – March 7, 1936) was a Major League Baseball pitcher from 1917 to 1921 for the St. Louis Browns, Philadelphia Athletics, and New York Yankees.

## Career

Rogers, who was born in Sparta, Tennessee, and grew up in Gallatin, Tennessee, began his professional career with the Nashville Vols of the Southern Association in 1914. In two seasons with the Vols, Rogers had a career win–loss record of 17–20 in 46 games, having allowed 149 runs on 305 hits. The St. Louis Browns were close to signing Rogers to a major league contract in 1915, but they felt he was not yet ready and, instead, he continued with Nashville in 1916.

On June 19, 1916, Rogers accidentally killed a longtime friend and former teammate with a pitch. The friend, Johnny Dodge of the Mobile Sea Gulls, was hit in the temple and knocked unconscious. Dodge was helped to stand and led to the showers, where he died of a brain hemorrhage.

On July 11, 1916, on only two days of rest, Rogers pitched a perfect game against the Chattanooga Lookouts at Sulphur Dell ballpark in Nashville. The Lookouts nearly recorded a hit in the second inning when Joe Harris led off with a sharp line drive to right-center field. Center fielder Billy Lee made a diving catch at the base of the notorious Sulphur Dell right field incline, saving the perfect game bid in its early stages. A second defensive play was made by Vols left fielder Gus Williams in the top of the seventh when he crashed into the left field bleacher fence in the act of catching Jake Pitler's sharply hit ball to left. With two outs in the top of the ninth inning, John Peters came in to pinch hit for pitcher James Allen. He hit a soft fly ball to second base which was fielded by Thomas Sheehan for the final out. In all, Rogers struck out 4 of the 27 batters he faced. The game lasted just 1 hour and 25 minutes.

> Thomas "Shotgun" Rogers climbed yesterday to the proudest pinnacle in the baseball world. The Gallatin Gunner, in the most gallant exhibition of slab work ever unfurled in this section of the more or less United States, reported with that fondly cherished dream of every gent who makes the diamond his habitat—a perfect game. One unmarred by either a run, a hit, or a hostile son of swat reaching the initial corner.
>
> *The Tennessean*, July 12, 1916

Rogers finished the season with a 24–12 record and having allowed only 75 runs on 243 hits. His 24 wins put him in a three-way-tie for the most wins in the Southern Association in 1916.

Having signed with the American League's St. Louis Browns for 1917, Rogers made his major league debut on April 14 against the Chicago White Sox at Sportsman's Park. Coming into the game in relief, Rogers pitched 7 innings allowing 4 runs (3 earned) while striking out 3 and walking 4 of the 25 batters he faced without figuring in the decision. He appeared in 24 games that year, including 8 starts, ending with a 3.89 earned run average (ERA) with 27 strikeouts and a 3–6 record over 108+23 innings.

He improved in 1918, pitching 154 innings across 29 games with 16 starts. His ERA lowered to 3.27 as he struck out 29 hitters and acquired an 8–10 record. Rogers pitched just 1 inning across 2 games for the 1919 Browns before his contract was sold in May to the Philadelphia Athletics for US$2,000. With the Athletics, he posted a 4.31 ERA with 37 strikeouts and a 4–12 record over 140 innings. He played the 1920 season with the International League's Buffalo Bisons.

Though playing most of the 1921 season with Buffalo, Rogers, pitched five games for the New York Yankees that September. In 5 games out of the bullpen, he had an ERA of 7.36 and an 0–1 record in 11 innings of work. His final appearance came on October 7 in Game 3 of the 1921 World Series, pitching the last 1+13 innings in a 13–5 loss to the New York Giants.

Rogers continued to play for various minor league teams in each succeeding year, before playing his final professional season with the Quincy Indians of the Illinois–Indiana–Iowa League in 1930. His career minor league record was 154–117, while his major league record was 15–30 with a 3.95 ERA.

Suffering from emotional problems as a result of Dodge's death, Rogers died in Nashville in 1936 at the age of 44.

text:
# Wahlenau

**Wahlenau** is an *Ortsgemeinde* – a municipality belonging to a *Verbandsgemeinde*, a kind of collective municipality – in the Rhein-Hunsrück-Kreis (district) in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. It belongs to the *Verbandsgemeinde* of Kirchberg, whose seat is in the like-named town.

## Geography

### Location

The municipality lies in the Hunsrück, roughly 13 km west-southwest of Kirchberg and 3 km south of Frankfurt-Hahn Airport. Wahlenau's municipal area measures 4.46 km2, of which 1.78 km2 is wooded.

## History

Witnessing early habitation in what is now Wahlenau is a group of Iron Age barrows in District 5 in the municipal forest. Archaeological finds from these are to be found at the *Rheinisches Landesmuseum Bonn*. Roman potsherds have also been found on the *Via Ausonia* (or *Ausoniusstraße* in German), which forms the southern municipal limit. According to a document from King Albrecht dated 27 October 1301, Count Johann II of Sponheim-Kreuznach held the Sohren Imperial fief, to which Wahlenau also belonged. Beginning in 1794, Wahlenau lay under French rule. In 1815 it was assigned to the Kingdom of Prussia at the Congress of Vienna. Since 1946, it has been part of the then newly founded state of Rhineland-Palatinate. In 1961, the Evangelical church was built.

## Politics

### Municipal council

The council is made up of 6 council members, who were elected by majority vote at the municipal election held on 7 June 2009, and the honorary mayor as chairman

### Mayor

Wahlenau's mayor is Barbara Müller.

### Coat of arms

The German blazon reads: *Gespalten durch eingeschweifte, erniedrigte blau-golden geschachte Spitze, vorn in grün zwei verschlungene silberne Ringe, pfahlweis, hinten in gold ein rot bewehrter schwarzer Adler.*

The municipality's arms might in English heraldic language be described thus: Tierced in mantle dexter vert two annulets embraced in pale argent, sinister Or an eagle displayed sable armed and langued gules and in base chequy of twelve azure and of the third.

The "embraced" (that is, linked) rings on the dexter (armsbearer's right, viewer's left) side refer to the prehistoric arm rings that were recovered in the Zappenheck forest district. The charge on the sinister (armsbearer's left, viewer's right) side is the Imperial Eagle, held to refer to the time when Wahlenau was an Imperial estate, part of the *Pflege* (literally "care", but in this context taken to mean "administrative area") of Sohren, which in 1301 King Albrecht gave to the Counts of Sponheim, who themselves are represented in the arms by the “chequy” base. These two tinctures, blue and gold, stood for the "Further" County (there was also a neighbouring "Hinder" County of Sponheim, whose arms were chequy, too, but red and silver instead), to which Wahlenau belonged.

The arms have been borne since 2000.

***No World Order*** is the fourteenth studio album by Todd Rundgren (credited to TR-i). It was released on July 6, 1993, for the Philips CD-i, making it the first interactive album in history.Its music was heavily influenced by electronica and rap.

## Interactive release

This CD-only recording was available in an interactive version on Philips' short-lived CD-i format, as well as the Macintosh and Windows operating systems. The interactive version included the ability to alter the playback of the music by selecting a pre-determined sequence by either Rundgren or one of his four guest producers - Don Was, Jerry Harrison, Hal Willner and Bob Clearmountain. The interface allowed the listener to control various aspects of music playback. If the user did nothing, the Rundgren mix would start and play through to the end.

The interactive interface presented standard playback controls and the following major functions, plus a help function:

* **Program**

(TR-i, Hal Willner, Bob Clearmountain, Jerry Harrison, Don Was) * **Direction**

(Very Fast Forward, Fast Forward, Forward, Hold, Reverse) * **Form**

(Creative, Standard, Conservative) * **Tempo**

(Fastest 132 BPM, Faster 126 BPM, Fast 120 BPM, Medium 110 BPM, Slow 100 BPM, Slower 92 BPM, Slowest 96 BPM) * **Mood**

(Bright, Happy, Thoughtful, Sad, Dark) * **Mix**

(Karaoke, Thick, Natural, Spacious, Sparse) * **Video**

(Blank, Warp, Swarm, Title, Editor)

The material on the disc was 933 4-bar musical segments. Each was a portion of one of the songs, accompanied by metadata describing the character of the segment - tempo in BPM, mood, chorus or verse, etc. Each segment was available in multiple mixes as well, from instrumental to a cappella. As the listener adjusted parameters, the currently playing segment would finish before starting a new segment, ensuring a seamless listening experience.

The interface had the unique (at the time) property of allowing the user to select a range rather than a single value when adjusting a parameter. One could select a fast tempo, reducing the range so only that fast tempo segments were played, or increase the range so medium to fast were played, weighting towards fast.

Rundgren demonstrated No World Order and the Philips CD-i system at record stores and electronics retailers after the release of the disc, and can be found on YouTube: Part 1 and Part 2.

The tour for the album was designed to maximize interactivity with the audience, allowing members to dance on a raised portion of the stage, and even to guest solo on guitar. Rundgren was the only performer on this tour apart from three female dancers.

The interactive program received "Best Composition/Arrangement" from the *Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences*, and the "Best Interactive Disc of the Year" Award from *Video* magazine. The editors of *Electronic Entertainment* presented it with their 1993 "Breakthrough Multimedia Title" award, and praised it as "a preview of a new kind of musical medium."

## Standard CD release

A non-interactive, audio-only CD was released simultaneously with Rundgren's preferred sequence. Even this version, however, played on the theme of interactivity and lack of order: its nearly continuous flow supported random play, and its paper insert could be refolded and reinserted so as to display any of 16 alternate versions of the cover art.

Another version of the album, *No World Order Lite*, was released the following year, presenting the same material in a more song-oriented format.

In Japan a promotional disc, *NWO (Version 1.01)*, was released that contains alternate versions of "Fascist Christ," "Property," "Day Job," and "Fever Broke."

An "expanded edition" reissue compiling all of the previous versions, plus four bonus tracks, was released by Esoteric/Cherry Red Records on November 8, 2011. On digital platforms such as Apple Music and Spotify, "Day Job \[Club Version\]" is missing from this reissue even though its title is included in the track listing; ten tracks on "disc two" are mislabeled, starting with "Proactivity," which is actually "Time Stood Still," and ending with "Day Job \[Club Version\]," which is "Property \[Lost Version\]."

A limited-edition DVD of the 1993-'94 "World (No Order) Tour" was issued by Toddstore in 2014. It includes a range of bonus video from the era, including footage of a CD-i demonstration by Rundgren at Tower Records in Chicago and two interviews from the period with Indianapolis TV journalist Ken Owen.

# Hour Glass (band)

**Hour Glass** was an American soul band based in Los Angeles, California in 1967 and 1968. Among their members were two future members of the Allman Brothers Band (Duane Allman and his brother Gregg) and three future studio musicians at the FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama (Pete Carr, Johnny Sandlin and Paul Hornsby).

## History

Formed by members of two disbanded rival groups that had played the same southern circuit, The Allman Joys (based in Florida) and the Men-its (based in Alabama), the group was booked in early 1967 into a month-long engagement in St. Louis, Missouri, where they met members of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, whose manager, Bill McEuen, arranged for them a contract with Liberty Records.

Moving to Los Angeles, they were soon opening for groups like The Doors and Buffalo Springfield and recording their eponymous debut album, full of lighthearted poppy soul that was unlike what the group was performing in clubs and theatres in California such as The Fillmore Ballrooom and Troubadour. These songs were chosen from a pool of staff writers, including Jackson Browne and Jimmy Radcliffe, whose song "Nothing But Tears" was the A-side of the Hour Glass' debut single. The ensuing album flopped, perhaps in part because the material did not really reflect the group's tastes or strengths. In fact, the Hour Glass generally refused to perform these songs in their live shows, focusing instead on their gritty, blues- and R&B-inflected southern sounds, along with a couple of originals by Gregg Allman.

The group members were unhappy at not being able to perform as often as they had been accustomed due to the label's concern with overexposure. Losing bassist Mabron McKinney and his successor Bob Keller, they soldiered on, performing concerts and recording a second album, *Power of Love*, which featured bassist Pete Carr from Daytona Beach. However, *Power of Love*, which also featured the songwriting skills of Gregg Allman and material that fit the group much better than the material on their debut, nonetheless flopped.

In a last-ditch effort, the members left Los Angeles to work at the FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, where they recorded a handful of tracks that showed their full potential in the studio. After these tracks were rejected by Liberty, the group returned to the Southeast, did a few more gigs, and called it quits.

Duane and Gregg Allman went to Jacksonville, Florida, where they jammed with folk-rockers The 31st of February, featuring drummer Butch Trucks. The others went back to Alabama and did some session work in Muscle Shoals.

After the 31st of February demos were rejected by that group's label, Gregg Allman decided to return to Los Angeles to pick up the pieces of the Hour Glass' deal with Liberty. He recorded several tracks in Los Angeles with studio musicians. A single, a remake of Tammy Wynette's country hit "D.I.V.O.R.C.E.," was released on Liberty under the name "Gregg Allman and the Hour Glass." However, it too failed to chart, and the remaining tracks for a planned album were scuttled and only issued twenty-five years later as bonus tracks on reissues of the Hour Glass's Liberty recordings.

Duane Allman re-joined his former Hour Glass bandmates in Muscle Shoals, where he met drummer J. Johanny "Jaimoe" Johanson. Interested in recruiting bassist Berry Oakley of Jacksonville psychedelic blues band the Second Coming, whom he had met the previous July at an Hour Glass performance at Jacksonville's Comic Book Club, Allman and Johanson left Muscle Shoals for Florida, where Allman began sitting in with Oakley's band. Impressed with Second Coming guitarist Dickey Betts' playing, Allman decided to add him to his fledgling line-up as well. With the addition of a second drummer, former 31 February drummer Butch Trucks, and brother Gregg on vocals and organ, who would at this point abandon his solo career in Los Angeles, the new line-up became the Allman Brothers Band.
