2 Bed Apartment - Strada Georges Clemenceau
My first experience in Eastern Europe, let alone Bucharest and I suspect that the quality of the apartment was excellent by comparison to local standards.
By comparison to Western Europe it was average to good. Certainly good value and comfortable. I was contacted prior to arrival firstly to explain that the previous guest in the apartment I had booked wanted to stay another day, but it was no problem as I would be given an alternative nearby apartment (which I have to say looked better from the outside). No complaints on the inside either; it was huge (2 bed for a lone traveller), clean, well furnished and decorated. Note that the pictures show at least two different apartments - not many are for this apartment. I was then contacted again to receive the key and be shown the way to the apartment - easy to find once you have been there once - just around the corner from the Hilton and Gucci, so in a nice part of the city. There's a 24hr supermarket within 5 mins walk, plus several good bars & restaurants within the same distance (Primus, Terminus, La Mama). Do also visit Caru' cu bere in the old town, if only to marvel at the decoration in each of the 3 floors of the restaurant - smaller, more extravagant version of the Hofbrauhaus in Munich. Free wifi in the apartment worked very well. Bucharest has just been announced as the European city with the fastest broadband connection (twice as fast as London) and I can confirm is it quick. Cooking facilities are basic, but not really needed due to the great choice of cheap food in the locality. Overall - excellent. I would certainly book again.

Nice stay in Bucharest
Everything was very good, there was only small problem - the light switch was out of order, so we used the safety switch above the doors and recommended to a boy who took care about us (keys, invoice etc.) to repair it before the accommodation of other people.

PSB starts utility poles probe
MONTPELIER The Public Service Board has started a statewide investigation into the use of a chemical to treat utility poles after advising Vermont Gas Systems not to lay pipeline near transmission lines.
Last month, Vermont Gas approached the board after discovering the possibility that soil contaminated with Pentachlorophenol, or PCP, could be disturbed by pipeline construction. The poles were treated with PCP, used as a wood preservative. The EPA has found it to be toxic.
Vermont Public Radio reports the board is opening an investigation into the use of the chemical. It has ordered companies in control of Vermont utility poles to attend a pre-hearing conference on Aug. 14 at the boards offices in Montpelier.MORE IN This Just In

They'll control "his money and his furture"? It really does sound like an S&M story, doesn't it?
Someone in the adult film industry should really make an XXX movie based on Ted. That could be really fun.
How 'bout it, gays? Have a good relationship with your father? Sounds like you don't exist.
Any straight guys out there with absent/abusive fathers? Sounds like you don't exist either.
(According to Dobson, "Three men will oversee discipline and punishment" for the fallen Haggard. Hubba hubba.)
I had the same reaction. I didn't know "restoration" could be so hot...
Okay, I can't listen to Herr Dobson's quote while I'm at work, so maybe I'm missing something, but... why the fuck is it up to Dobson and three (big, meaty, leather-bound and mustached) men to oversee discipline and punishment for Haggard? Isn't that kinda their God's job?
Also, my fascination with Madame is like a crow to shiny objects.
I imagine there's going to be some serious Clockwork Orange style reprogramming for Ted.
Too bad, 'cause it won't work.
Three men? Discipline and punishment? Long and hard? Hell, I know plenty of guys who pay good money for that kind of thing. Lucky Teddy.
That photo of Dina and Joyce DeWitt made my heart skip a beat. Why do I remember that Madame puppet? Was she "it" ever on Hollywood Squares reruns?
Yes, Madame was on Hollywood Squares, but I remember her mostly from Solid Gold, on which she appeared with her creator Waylon Flowers.
"Any straight guys out there with absent/abusive fathers? Sounds like you don't exist either."
I for one definitely exist.
Wow. This is a motherfucker of a "sexual identity crisis" I am having. God damn mother. God damn father. How did they teach my dick to get so hard around other boys?
A sexual "identity" crisis is when you lie to the world about being a polesmoker and pretend you like vagina in order to retain your position of power and wealth.
And why does that fuckwit Larry King give any air time to this bullshit? I believe he is a man of intelligence, but he must lack journalistic ethics and standards because he knows what Dobson is saying IS bullshit and is refuted by empirical evidence, yet he refuses to call him out.
Polesmoker> you're surprised that LK is serving up softballs?
Mike in Mo: No. I'm surprised he isn't serving up any balls in that interview. Even a softball would have been better than just sitting there letting Dobson explain how my mother did this to me.
Confidential to Mom: Thanks! Cock = good!
Boy, does this shit ever write itself.
Is he saying that only males should have oversight of child-rearing? Since obviously a mother's hand turns any good boy into a screaming queen.
But, aren't the wives are supposed to stay home and not have jobs...then again, men need to lead their households...rgh...gah...fundamentalist Christian brain...getting confused...can't cope...must...find...leather-boy porn...ahhhh.

I want to create an app that "types" into a text document in Drive. The goal is to have a document which is publicly viewable, if not editable, and a program which enters text into that document as though it were being typed by a person. If I use the following Drive API endpoint
PUT https://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v2/files/fileId
will a viewer see the edits taking place a character at a time? (assuming I upload each version with one character difference). Or is there a function which would allow me to programmatically "type" each character?
My perusal of the Realtime API makes it look like this is what I want except that it involves setting up a separate page, where what I'm looking for is just the ability to write to a doc in Drive, in real time. Am I looking in the right place?

Xiaomi Unveils Bigger Screen to Challenge Apple, Samsung
Xiaomi Corp., the smartphone maker that outsells Apple Inc. in China, will release a new model featuring a 5-inch screen next week as the company targets Samsung Electronics Co. in the market for larger mobile phones.
The Mi4 will start at 1,999 yuan ($322) for a device with 16 gigabytes of memory, Xiaomi founder and Chief Executive Officer Lei Jun said at a press conference in Beijing today. The smartphone will have a stainless-steel frame and high-definition screen, and also be sold through carrier China Unicom (Hong Kong) Ltd. beginning July 29.
The four-year-old company is broadening its lineup of smartphones, tablets, televisions and routers to escalate competition with Samsung and Apple, which is said to be preparing iPhones with larger screens. Xiaomi is pushing outside of China into new markets -- including India, Brazil and Russia -- and the company unveiled its first tablet, the Mi Pad, in May.
"We want to offer first-rate innovation that everyone in the world enjoys and create an international brand that every Chinese is proud of," Lei said.
Xiaomi, which has been valued at $10 billion, almost quadrupled phone unit sales in the first half of this year, surpassing the total amount of devices the company sold in 2013. The company sold 26 million smartphones in the first half of this year, almost four times the 7.03 million devices sold in the same period a year ago.
China Mobile
Xiaomi in April set a target to boost phone shipments to 100 million units next year. Xiaomi has depended on sales through its own website, though Lei said the new Mi4 also will be sold through China Telecom Corp. starting next month and China Mobile Ltd. starting in September.
Revenue in the first half of this year more than doubled to 33 billion yuan from 13.3 billion yuan a year ago, the company said this month.
In the first quarter, Xiaomi was among the top three smartphone vendors in China, according to estimates from researcher Canalys. The Beijing-based company was the sixth-largest globally, even as 97 percent of its sales come from China, Canalys said.
Xiaomi's valuation hit $10 billion with a fundraising round last August, the closely held company said at the time.

Villa play really nice football at times. I haven't seen them play all season, but even though they're 3-0 down they look like they shouldn't be in the position they're in. If that makes sense.

Now for the summer, Buy Bale at any cost, Fergie manages one more season then retire(with winning the quadruple) and then get mourinho in...doneeee
Prey for Suarez.
Impressive forethought for someone to sneak that into the ground and then wait for Evra to come nearby.

If you include players winning the Johnstone Paints trophy etc, it probably is. Pretty sure this has come up before.

To get a record points total you need a great team chasing you. See Real last season.
I'm just gonna c&p my post from the arsenal group on RvP.
I think the issue is that we're trying to make RvP the enemy here. The only 2 options are; we lacked ambition (not about building a stadium, but the argument about if we've used all of our means) or that we are a victim of circumstances (our financial inhibition mixed with our star player who's desires to win a title for himself conflicted with our own situation).
The truth is the latter, but we're out to demonise him instead. Yes he made us have to sell him, but that's not the deeper issue. Fact is, if he approached Wenger & Co and wanted us to sign top players, it means his primary option was to stay with US plus have top players to win the league. When it was clear that wasn't the case, his only option was to leave (because if we forced him to stay, he too would've missed on a great opportunity as United or City would've got someone else).
As for why United? Isn't it obvious? The only other manager to admire other than Wenger is SAF, plus with a guarantee of a title whilst still being the main man.
The actual truth was what I said before; it was the honest desires of a player who was reaching his final contract days and wanted to use it fighting and winning titles versus a club who could say we simply weren't in a financial position to do that, and so went to the only other club where he admired the manager (who would you rather work with; Fergie or Mancini?) and could fulfill that. It really is that simple.
Making him out to be this "Judas C*nt" is just typical football tribalism. For all the talk of going to "the enemy" the truth is United haven't been our enemies for some time now, and we haven't even been worthy to challenge them. The fact that Wenger himself is on great terms with SAF along with our Chief Exec who regularly has meetings with their Chief Exec shows this enemy attitude is only at the minds of the fans. No one else in the club, not the manager, not the board and not even the players see them as enemies.
In short, we need to just get over it. Circumstances (at best, though the argument for using all of our means could be argued) was our enemy, we are just collateral damage. But don't make RvP to be the demon he's made out to be. There simply was no way he could "leave quietly" to United. No way.
Blaketown wrote:Yet when Chelsea got their record points tally they won the league by 12 points.
FWB wrote:Never going to happen. It'll be cruise control from here unfortunately. Luckily for Arsenal.
Hope united can hit that point mark. Having Chelsea hold it is pretty awful for football.
To get a record points total you need a great team chasing you. See Real last season.
So why is RvP being made out to be a Judas Traitor? It's quite simple that this is our current situation, so what choice did he have? He wants title, we can't financially fight for it (though that's debatable) so he wants to leave to United, but the club don't want to let him, so he forces their hand (sadly).
So why are guys like arseblog so persistent in calling him a Judas C*nt whilst at the same time acknowledging the situation we're in?
All this "if only he left quietly" bobbin.
1. Going to United, no matter how quiet he was, would've led to people hating him.
2. The club didn't really give him much of a choice. Didn't want to/couldn't buy world class players, yet wanted to force their only WC player to stay for another year and miss out in possibly his final opportunity to go to a winning club.
This whole "It's either the club lack ambition" or "Van Persie is a Judas C*nt" is ridiculous. Chances are it's either both or neither.
We should respect him for what he did for us, for what he's now achieved at a better club, and yet still support our club. It's not one or the other.
I'm not gonna pretend I hate him anymore just because every other gooner-with-a-blog (arseblog) is doing it. I still like RvP, and I understand why, just as I understand why we couldn't afford all the WC players he wanted at the time.
I'm happy for him.

SnapMotion : Easily extract images from video
By JeremyCreation
Open the Mac App Store to buy and download apps.
This version is specially made for OS X 10.7, 10.8 and 10.9.
A new version named SnapMotion 3 is available on the Mac AppStore for OS X 10.10 and later.
SnapMotion is an application which allows you to extract images from videos in a quick and simple way. Extracted images are in the best possible quality and can be resized before being saved.
With SnapMotion, you can manually extract an image from any point in a video, or, they can be extracted automatically every at intervals you define.
Moreover, SnapMotion includes now a batch processing window. You can extract images from multiple files and then export them with a watermark and a custom output name.
The application can play and extract from all videos which can be opened in Quicktime

SnapMotion does its job
Overcomes the problem that Quicktime7 exports .pct, which can't be opened by Photoshop any more. Does take a little time to load source videos, but is simple to use, and the batch processing works great. You can select a bunch of pictures from a bunch of different videos and grab them all at once. Capturing can be automatic (every so many seconds/frames) or manually. Files are numbered by time - either seconds or HH:MM:SS:MS. You can set output file as .jpeg or .png and they come out in the video's native resolution. Nice extras are that you can add a watermark and save settings for re-use later. Big problem solver.
Great app!!
Found this app after a few failures with others and couldn't be happier. For what I'm working on I specifically needed JPEGs as screen grabs won't cut it due to the poor res. Unless I'm missing something, I've got exactly what I need to meet the criteria. I saw a prior review stating video load time was long. I find it takes about 3 seconds and it's there and ready to go. Perfect to me. No complaints there. The app has stopped on two occasions. For $3.99 it's still not too much of a headache to quit — sometimes force quit — then pull it back up in a second. And go again. Love it.
Great app for the money
Very pleased, does everything I expected plus a lot more. Very nice to be able to just set the controls to take pictures every second, Every three seconds, or what ever amount of time you want to program it for all the way down to .1 second. I am in event videographer and this makes A nice optional add-on once you have the edited master. The only negative thing that I would have to say is the help menu leaves a lot to be desired. But if you play around with it for a while you should be able to figure out most things.

Bob Dylan writes great lyrics, but he sings like a rusted hinge.
I also think that the new album is a work of genius and will continue to buy each album is in his future; however, I have spent too much money to just look at him in concert and not be able to recognize anything he was singing as he changed/revised his versions of these songs. His mumbling is unrecognizable. I feel like he is scamming us by continue to tour. I think everyone is being duped. Last time I actually emailed Reitman but he would not answer my email when I asked what was going on. I think I insulted his hero and he chose to ignore me. I wish all of you going to the concert good listening and look forward to the reviews.
Clealy seeing him live these past years can be a struggle. But you have to go into it knowing that you are not going to see the skinny jewish kid from Minnesota with just a harmonica and guitar. And he will rarely engage the audience. So to criticize him for doing what he does is I feel wrong. I would always see Bob when he came to any city I have lived in. I did not go the show at summerfest a few years ago. His show at the Riverside was good and his show at Eagles Ballroom was wonderful. I do not have high expectations of this show thursday but I thought it was probably my last chance to see him plus to get the opportunity to see Mark Knopfler. As I am about to turn 60 I feel lucky that I got to grow up with his music and to have seen him several times that brought a tear. I don't expect that to happen thursday. He is what he is.
"You have to understand that Dylan created the singer-songwriter category," Rosenblum said. "There was no such thing until Bob Dylan came around."
Well, mebbe if you don't count Woody Guthrie, Jimme Rodgers, Leadbelly....
Well there aint no use to sit and wonder why, babe, ifn' you don't know by now........

Savage Love Savage Love Letter of the Day
posted by December 20 at 15:44 PMon
My new boyfriend and I just spent a romantic Friday making love and performing all kinds of love acts. However, about 10 hours after our fabulous day of lovemaking, he developed a rash. He has asked me in a very kind way, whether I thought I had any skin issues or VDs, but as far as I know I'm disease-free. I haven't even slept with anyone in at least 7 months. This looks a bit to me like a moisture-related folliculitis issue to me. Do you have any ideas? This could put a huge damper on this fabulous new relationship I'm in and I'm very worried that he may have trust issues after this if I'm to blame. Please help!
Back East
BE here was kind enough to enclose a photograph of her boyfriend's rash for me—it's right up there at the top of the post. That picture? Did you notice it? Scroll back up, if you missed it, and take another look. Or click here for a bigger version. I'll wait.
Okay, a lot of people think my sex-advice gig is an easy-peasy stroll in through a park full of pervs. But there are risks, people, occupational hazards. I can't tell you how many times I've been innocently reading through the ol' email and—bam!—up pops a picture like the one above. I opened this email from Back East—click here for a hi-rez version of the photo she enclosed!—while I was eating my lunch. I nearly choked to death on my spring roll. I should be getting combat pay here.
Most people that send me pictures of the sores on their cocks, labia, sacks, and assholes me they're "too embarrassed" to see a doctor, but they're not too embarrassed to take a picture and email it to me. Since I'm not a doctor, and can't proscribe anti-crotch-rot-otics through the column, the folks that send me pictures like this still have to go to the doctor. By writing me they've just delayed an inevitable doctor's visit and, in most cases, allowed symptoms to worsen.
But I don't think Back East's boyfriend has an STI. There are no STIs that I'm aware of with a 10 hour exposure-to-breakout turnaround time. And those don't look like any syphilis sores or scabies' bites or anything else I've ever seen on YouTube. What it looks like is a weird allergic reaction, as Back East suggests. But if Back East's boyfriend is concerned—and wouldn't you be if this happened to you?—he should GO SEE A DOCTOR, not send pictures like this one to me.

Kim Kardashian in Kardashian Kollection Jeans in Jade
A couple of weeks ago, Kim and Khloe Kardashian were seen going for a walk at the MacArthur Causeway (the sight of the Miami cannibal attack dubbed "Causeway Cannibal") in Miami, Florida.
We already blogged about Khloe wearing her orange Rag & Bone jeans, however Kim was sporting a pair of Jade skinny jeans from the sisters Kardashian Kollection line. It's nice to actually see Kim in some colour again! She's been very monochromatic lately with her outfits, especially with white, grey and black, so this pop of colour is refreshing! Buy these jeans online at Sears for $68.

Major upgrades in store for Nicholls auditorium
Published: Monday, December 12, 2011 at 11:18 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, December 12, 2011 at 11:18 a.m.
A nearly 40-year-old auditorium at Nicholls State University is due to undergo major upgrades in 2012.
"Powell Auditorium has been more or less the same as it was when it was built in 1972," said Mike Davis, assistant vice president for facilities. "We're going to renovate it, modernize it and make it more useful for our students."
The most significant change will be to the seating arrangement. Workers will replace the auditorium-style seats, which have small arm-tables, and with larger seats and tables.
The tables will have electrical outlets and space to accommodate laptop computers.
The finished auditorium will also have up-to-date projectors and wireless internet service.
Shawn Mauldin, dean of the College of Business Administration, said he sought the changes because the current arrangement doesn't fit his students' needs.
"The structure right now was designed as an auditorium, but we've been using it for a classroom," he said. "It's just not conducive for the learning environment."
Mauldin said the new laptop and projector capabilities are "essential," because so much class work is done electronically.
He also said the overhauled auditorium would give the college a place to host the continuing-education classes it offers to local business professionals and lawyers.
The new seating arrangement will cut down on the number of students the room can house, but Davis said there's ample room to fit the maximum class size.
The auditorium will also get new lights, paint and carpet, as well as improved acoustics to prevent echoes.
Nicholls has about $240,000 allotted for the project so far; about $200,000 came from the building-use fee that students pay. The rest comes from a student-assessed technology fee.
Davis said the final cost could total $270,000.
Davis said he hopes work will start after the first of the year. The auditorium will be closed for the spring semester and re-open for the fall.
Davis said the project is part of a larger effort to revamp auditoriums scattered throughout campus. This semester officials unveiled a new and improved Peltier Hall auditorium. Plans are also in the works to re-do the auditoriums in Talbot and Gouaux halls.
"These are buildings where there's a lot of traffic, that a lot of students see," he said. "We think this is something important to the students, so we're working on making those the best we could be."

Is There a Doctor in the House? And Other News
October 30, 2015 | by Dan Piepenbring
- In search of some cosmic horror, something to give you seasonally appropriate nightmares, something outside the realm of the usual Lovecraft stuff? Try William Hope Hodgson, who in the early twentieth century "envisioned the end of the Earth in the distant future: 1908's The House on the Borderland features it in hallucinatory form, while 1912's The Night Land is set at a point where the sun's light has dimmed." Or try Thomas Ligotti, in whose stories "the truths about the world that people discover are enough to tear them apart—sometimes literally. His protagonists often find themselves facing forces far beyond their ability to grapple with or comprehend. The therapist narrating 'Dream of a Manikin' is, ultimately, trapped in a series of collapsing realities; what begins as a simple, Twilight Zone-esque twist to the narrative gives way to a series of revelations beside which a simple 'everything you know is a lie' would be a comfort."
- Since the Tin Pan Alley era, if not earlier, pop music has been likened to an assembly line: even today people like to joke about "the hit factory," imagining the sleek, automated, international manufacturing process that generates our Top 40. But isn't the metaphor a bit stale, by now? "A more accurate and illuminating way to understand today's pop might be to think of it as post-industrial, a phenomenon not of the machine era but of the information age. Music is made today by mining the vast digital repository of recordings of the past, or by emulating or referencing them through synthesis, and then manipulating them and mashing them up—with the human fallibility and genius that have always laced popular music and probably always will. Indeed, it is accessing and processing—the methods that digitalization facilitates—rather than gearing and stamping for uniformity and mass production that distinguish twenty-first-century pop. Like machine-age plants everywhere, the song factories have closed, and the work of the day is being done electronically."
- And just as we're fond of the "hit factory" metaphor, who doesn't enjoy a casual Grand Guignol reference from time to time? And yet who among us knows a thing about the actual Grand Guignol? "The Grand Guignol was originally founded in 1895 by French playwright Oscar Méténier. He purchased an old chapel located at the end of a tight alley, leaving the gothic, religious decorations intact. Wooden angels hung from the ceiling, and towered over the orchestra … In 1897, the theater was taken over by Max Maurey, who leaned into the Grand Guignol as a space for straight-up horror. Under Maurey's leadership, the theater ran a variety of plays, ranging from comedies to dramas … He was said to judge the success of a given play by the number of audience members who passed out. As a publicity stunt, he also hired a house doctor to administer to those who were adversely affected by the horrors on display … Under Maurey's leadership, the plays at the Grand Guignol began focusing on tales of insanity, hallucination, and, above all, terror … involving figures like a child-killing nanny, a mad doctor who performs a vengeful lobotomy, and jealous women who stick a pair scissors in the eyes of a more beautiful woman."
- James Baldwin's once splendorous home in the Cote d'Azur is in shambles now, as Thomas Chatterton Williams discovered when he broke in: He found "an extremely wide and shallow expanse of overgrown grass, orange trees, cypresses, wild lavender, and palms that gives sweeping views of the walled town above, the sun-drenched valley below, and, in the distance, the Mediterranean's rippling sheen. The stone barrier wall had been broken a truck's width and re-sealed with a chain-link fence that begged to be circumvented. I crouched and pulled out the cinderblock that stabilized it … I could not stop myself from attaching a deep significance to that ruined house in the foothills of the Alps, overlooking a distant sea. The thought that one of the most gifted and munificently alive writers of the twentieth century, the quintessential black American in France, would soon be rid of his only geographical footprint … struck me as unbearably sad."
- Ai Weiwei ordered Legos in bulk. The corporation refused to fulfill his order, claiming that they "cannot approve the use of Legos for political works." This made Ai Weiwei upset, as one might imagine. He decided to procure Legos the old-fashioned way: through the sunroofs of BMWs. "Ai Weiwei would like to rent, borrow or buy second-hand a BMW 5S Series sedan, of which the color can vary, as a Lego container," he wrote on his Instagram. "The vehicle must have clear windows and a sunroof that can be fixed open with a five cm opening so that people can insert Legos … The car should be parked and locked in a central location of the city that can be easily accessed by the public. The vehicle should remain in the parking space for one month or a longer period of time, preferably in a location related to arts or culture, indoor or outdoor." Some laud his willfully bizarre effort to fight censorship. Others think it's what Jed Perl has called "political kitsch": "one wonders where the political dissent ends and the artsy attitudinizing begins."
Revenge of the Nerds
June 22, 2015 | by Taffy Brodesser-Akner
Taylor Swift's passive-aggressive lyrics are "the realization of every writer's narrowest dream."
"I've never thought about songwriting as a weapon," Taylor Swift said with a straight face to an interviewer from Vanity Fair while the magazine was profiling her in 2013.
No, not Taylor Swift. Not the author of songs like "Forever and Always," written in the wake of her relationship with former boyfriend Joe Jonas, the better-looking Jonas brother, and featuring this lyric: "Did I say something way too honest, made you run and hide like a scared little boy?" Not her, who wrote/sang about her relationship with the actor Jake Gyllenhaal, "Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword/and realizing there's no right answer."
Not Taylor, who leaves the impossible-to-crack clues in her liner notes for each song by capitalizing a variety of letters that spell out the subjects in a very essential way: "TAY" for a song about ex-boyfriend Taylor Lautner; "SAG" for the Gyllenhaal one (as in Swift And Gyllenhaal, or that they're both Sagittarius. I don't know).
For Taylor Swift to pretend that her entire music career is not a tool of passive aggression toward those who had wronged her is like me pretending I'm not carbon-based: too easy to disprove, laughable at its very suggestion.
Don't get me wrong—I say all this with utter admiration. Taylor's career is, in fact, the perfected realization of every writer's narrowest dream: To get back at those who had wronged us, sharply and loudly, and then to be able to cry innocent that our intentions were anything other than poetic and pure. Most of us can only achieve this with small asides. Taylor not only publicly dates and publicly breaks up, but she then releases an achingly specific song about the relationship—and that song has an unforgettable hook—all the while swearing she won't talk about relationships that are over. Yes, date Taylor Swift, and not only will she shit on you on her album, but the song will become a single, then a hit, and then you will hear yourself shat upon by an army of young women at Staples Center. And then she'll deny that she was ever doing anything other than righteously manifesting her art. It's diabolical, and for a lifelong passive-aggressive like me, it's made her my hero. Read More »
"26 Anos de Vida Normal"
June 5, 2015 | by Sadie Stein
I hate the summer. I hate the heat, I hate the humidity, I hate the pressure to have fun, I hate the sand-in-an-hourglass frenzy of it all. I hate summer movies and the crowds of people at outdoor events. I do like the tomatoes. But ever since it dawned on me that grown-ups don't get summer vacation, I have not seen the reason for the season.
Apparently there's a sort of SAD that affects some people in the sun. Something about the sun flips a switch in their brains so that, just as everyone else is at their happiest, they're miserable. I don't know about me—although the heat is a migraine trigger. But I do go strange in the heat. I'm not just cranky but furious and spiky, able at any moment to erupt in scornful rage. It is exciting, but tiring, too, like a summer film overlarded with special effects. Read More »
When the New Wave Was New, and Other News
May 4, 2015 | by Dan Piepenbring
- About a decade ago, Jonathan Gottschall pioneered "literary Darwinism," a school of thought that interprets literature through the prism of evolutionary desires. By bringing biological concerns to English departments, he hoped to rescue the humanities from triviality: "the alternative is to let literature study keep spinning off into a corner of irrelevance to die." Today, perhaps unsurprisingly, his career "is in a precarious place," but hey, at least he's writing trade books …
- Hardly anyone is writing love songs anymore—can we assume, from this, that hardly anyone is in love? "The traditional romantic love song has lately ceased to be as central to American pop music as it still was well into the '70s. For now, while the pop charts are laden with songs about love, that love is often rendered in an anti-romantic manner that is sharply at variance with how love was customarily portrayed during the golden age of American popular song."
- Lynne Tillman on David Wojnarowicz, whose photo-book Brush Fires in the Social Landscape was published twenty years ago: "In the 1980s, being infected by HIV and developing AIDS was an unchosen, horrific fate, fatal. People were very frightened, and felt hopeless. Not every artist or writer responded as Wojnarowicz did. His responses were unique, thoroughly felt, and driven by an urgent necessity. In his time, his work was extraordinarily moving—it stunned. It will never be experienced again as it was then, in that very dark moment.
- "Occasionally, unintentionally, triggered by a smell or an old tune, my mind drifts to that time when Paris didn't resemble the USA at all ... " Nadja Tesich, the star of Eric Rohmer's 1964 short film Nadja à Paris, on the French New Wave and filmmaking in the Paris of yore.
- As a boy, Julian Barnes experienced an artistic awakening—and it was Gustave Moreau who made the scales fall from his eyes. "I was uncertain what to make of such work: exotic, bejeweled, and darkly glittering, with an odd mixture of private and public symbolism, little of which I could unscramble. Perhaps it was this mysteriousness that attracted me; and perhaps I admired Moreau the more because nobody told me to do so. But it was certainly here that I remember myself for the first time consciously looking at pictures, rather than being passively and obediently in their presence."
A Sincere Mustache, and Other News
March 6, 2015 | by Dan Piepenbring
- John McPhee on writing, illumination, and mustaches: "Robert Bingham, my editor at The New Yorker for sixteen years, had a fluorescent, not to mention distinguished, mustache. In some piece or other, early on, I said of a person I was writing about that he had a 'sincere' mustache. This brought Bingham, manuscript in hand, out of his office … A sincere mustache, Mr. McPhee, a sincere mustache? What does that mean? Was I implying that it is possible to have an insincere mustache? … Across time, someone came along who had 'a no-nonsense mustache,' and a Great Lakes ship captain who had 'a gyroscopic mustache,' and a North Woodsman who had 'a timber-cruiser's guileless mustache.' A family practitioner in Maine had 'an analgesic mustache,' another doctor 'a soothing mustache,' and another a mustache that 'seems medical, in that it spreads flat beyond the corners of his mouth and suggests no prognosis, positive or negative.'"
- Pop music is heralded as one of life's simple pleasures: a chance for pure escapism. Why, then, are so many pop songs really, really, really sad? "Love songs have always been more likely to deal with the yearning for love, the complications of love, love's betrayal, or the loss of love (or even, sometimes, the loss of life) than the fancied bliss of love fulfilled … a strain of sadness has long been laced through the popular songbook. Music listeners' likes have never been restricted to things that make them happy."
- On Kingsley Amis's misanthropic masterwork, Ending Up: "The finished product is short and brutal, a series of cackling vignettes of man's cruelty to man, all conveyed in Amis's crisp, beady prose. It is also very funny, growing funnier with each fresh misery, mishap and atrocity. The blurb on my Penguin edition draws attention to its 'humanity,' but it might more accurately have highlighted its inhumanity: few novels have ever been quite this bleak, quite this nasty."
- The impressionists are often derided as "the painterly equivalent of easy listening," but they still have much to teach us: "While Degas was in America in 1872 he was much taken with the Southern Creole women, feeling they had 'that touch of ugliness without which no salvation.' Let's not get too politically correct here. His remark has a general application. It speaks to a shared aesthetic disposition. By 'ugliness,' Degas means ordinary life—a girl having her hair combed on a beach; women unperturbed, unself-conscious at their ablutions; a laundress stretching, yawning, another one ironing. They are the painters of modern life, in Baudelaire's encapsulation. As modern as T. S. Eliot's woman who yawns and draws her stocking up in 'Sweeney Among the Nightingales.' "
- "Jane Austen's earliest writings are violent, restless, anarchic, and exuberantly expressionistic. Drunkenness, female brawling, sexual misdemeanor, and murder run riot across their pages."
Islands in the Stream
December 25, 2014 | by Bob Stanley
We're out until January 5, but we're re-posting some of our favorite pieces from 2014 while we're away. We hope you enjoy—and have a happy New Year!
The elephant in the discotheque: the Bee Gees.
The Bee Gees' dominance of the charts in the disco era was above and beyond Chic, Giorgio Moroder, even Donna Summer. Their sound track to Saturday Night Fever sold thirty million copies. They were responsible for writing and producing eight of 1978's number ones, something only Lennon and McCartney in 1963/64 could rival—and John and Paul hadn't been the producers, only the writers. Even given the task of writing a song called "Grease" ("Grease is the word, it's got groove, it's got a meaning," they claimed, hoping no one would ask, "Come again?"), they came up with a classic. At one point in March they were behind five singles in the American Top 10. In 1978 they accounted for 2 percent of the entire record industry's profits. The Bee Gees were a cultural phenomenon.
Three siblings from an isolated, slightly sinister island off the coast of northwest England, already in their late twenties by the time the Fever struck—how the hell did they manage this? Pinups in the late sixties, makers of the occasional keening ballad hit in the early seventies, the Bee Gees had no real contact with the zeitgeist until, inexplicably, they had hits like "Nights on Broadway," "Stayin' Alive," "Night Fever," and the zeitgeist suddenly seemed to emanate from them. This happened because they were blending white soul, R&B, and dance music in a way that suited pretty much every club, every radio station, every American citizen in 1978. They melded black and white influences into a more satisfying whole than anyone since Elvis. Simply, they were defining pop culture in 1978.
Like ABBA, there is a well of melancholic emotion, even paranoia, in the Bee Gees' music. Take "How Deep Is Your Love" (no. 1, '77), with its warm bath of Fender Rhodes keyboards and echoed harmonies that camouflage the cries of the lyric: "We're living in a world of fools, breaking us down, when they all should let us be … How deep is your love? I really need to learn." Or "Words," with its romantic but strangely seclusionist "This world has lost its glory. Let's start a brand-new story now, my love." Or "Night Fever," their '78 number one, with its super-mellow groove and air-pumped strings masking the high anxiety of Barry Gibb's vocal; the second verse is indecipherable, nothing but a piercing wail with the odd phrase—"I can't hide!"—peeking through the cracks. It is an extraordinary record.
Total pop domination can have fierce consequences. Elvis had been packed off to the army; the Beatles had received Ku Klux Klan death threats—the Bee Gees received the mother of all backlashes, taking the full brunt of the anti-disco movement. Radio stations announced "Bee Gee–free weekends"; a comedy record called "Meaningless Songs in Very High Voices" by the HeeBeeGeeBees became a UK radio hit. Their 1979 album Spirits Having Flown had sold sixteen million copies and spawned three number-one singles ("Too Much Heaven," "Tragedy," "Love You Inside Out"); the singles from 1981's Living Eyes—"He's a Liar" and the title track—reached thirty and forty-five on the chart respectively, and didn't chart in Britain at all. Almost overnight, nobody played Bee Gees records on the radio, and pretty much nobody bought them. The biggest group in the world at the end of 1978 went into enforced retirement three years later. Could they rise again? Of course they could. Read More >>

Zanesville Mayor Howard Zwelling is making three major announcements, not only to the city of Zanesville but to the entire country.
He asked some local, state, and federal leaders to join him this morning to celebrate some exciting news.
WHIZ's Emily Baird has more.
People packed into Zanesville City Council Chambers this morning to see how Zanesville is revolutionizing green energy.
Zanesville Mayor Howard Zwelling says the city is the first in the US to use the Lightmaster for its street lighting.
"The whole country's going to be looking at Ohio and Zanesville as a leader in this technology. I'm proud of that, " says Zwelling.
The Lightmaster is installed in seven different locations around the city.
"The ease of installation. It's very easy to put in and the simplicity of the whole piece of equipment, " says Zanesville Traffic Signal and Electric Supervisor, Fred Buck.
Yet, it's what the Lightmaster can do for the environment that is really raising some eyebrows.
"The energy savings is tremendous. You know, anytime you can, everybody's on a budget crunch. I mean, it's just too bad we don't have one for the house, " says Buck.
Zanesville is currently using about 30 percent less electricity to light some of its street lights thanks to the Lightmaster. That also turns into about a 30 percent savings on the city's electric bill.
Zwelling also announced that Ohio leads the nation with the usage of this technology. The University of Akron and Ohio State University are using several units for lighting in their parking garages.
Zwelling's final announcement, JCore, the company that distributes the Lightmaster, will be building a plant in Zanesville. It will be located in the Eastpointe Industrial Park.
"The interstate system and the rail system, and the airport, everything is here. We can reach a very high percentage of the population within a day's drive, " says JCore CEO, Jim Winn.
The Zanesville-Muskingum County Port Authority will be assisting JCore through this process, and the company hopes to start building the plant in 2010.
"We're showing them some existing facilities to see what we can do in the short term to accomplish what they want to accomplish. Then we will work with them, their architects, and their engineers to build something in the future, " says Zanesville-Muskingum County Port Authority's Jerry Nolder.
More importantly though, the company will bring about 60 jobs to the city of Zanesville, and Zwelling says it doesn't stop there.
"They are going to build a plant with expansion possibilities, and I predict it's going to be big, " says Zwelling.
I'm Emily Baird for WHIZ News.
Zwelling says the Lightmaster is a step in the right direction when it comes to loosening our country's dependence on foreign countries for energy sources.
