Talking about energy, Ackermann explains almost apologetically, "I got hooked into this nuclear energy thing--it wasn't my issue at first.

The crowd, decked out in its spikiest heels and slinkiest skirts, danced beneath a huge electric American flag, which blinked red, white and blue to Basie's beat. Meanwhile, Dizzy Gillespie, 60, was on hand at Avery Fisher Hall, with his mischievously cherubic grin, his horn angled rakishly at the sky to let fly with Manteca, one of his Latin favorites...
