NEWS, Highlights, Updates & Corrections:

- Velvet Lounge still hopefully reopening soon, call ahead

- Min Xiang-Fen replaces Wu Wei on October 29, more border problems

- jazz fans take note: venues are not going to continue to book these shows if less than 10 people turn out - the level of programming that we take for granted will evaporate if we don't demonstrate our support - so-called "homeland security" and economic policies are making international travel very difficult, if there is no demand, soon there will be no supply -
