During a leaving party for Rob (Stahl-David) something attacks New York and stands between him and the woman he loves (Yustman). So begins a race to rescue the girl and avoid getting eaten, all viewed via camcorder.

A dazzling experiment that paid off immensely, this is cinematic pleasure at its purest. One caveat: If they ever make a sequel, we're taking two stars back.

|Average user rating for Cloverfield
|Massively Overrated
Good but not great, certainly not a classic! Empire how you could say this was "genuinely new" I will never know! Shaky handheld camera - seen before and to far scarier effect in The Blair Witch Project. Monster attacks New York City - seen before numerous times. Stupid, 20 something Americans running around screaming... you get the picture. Granted this may never have been done all in one film before but that alone surely doesn't constitute originality? The initial attack on New ... More

I was wondering if it would still stand strong on second viewing on a smaller screen and leave the same kind of impression as it did the first time. The impression it leaves now is a bit less as you already know what`s gonna happen and the screen is a lot smaller.But once again the film knows to entertain, I thought it was a good as it was the first time around. That is well done and quite hard to achieve with a plotline this thin and it being quite predictable. The power of the film isn`t in t... More

Cloverfield gave me the best cinematic experience of any film in 2008 or even ever. it is scary, exciting, thrilling, gripping, nervous, tense, claustrophobic and purely a hell of a ride. it was genius marketing to create amazing hype which led to this amazing film. this is one you have to see in the cinema as i left i was shaking and literally blown away by what i had just seen.

I agree with Empire's review 100%. Cloverfield is fresh and invigorating, breathing new life into the creaky old machine which was the monster movie. Fast-paced, highly intense and surprisingly humane, Cloverfield is one of the stand-out films of 2008. ... More

I didn't like the characters yet still enjoyed the film; I can't recall another example of that happening. The people in the film are very one-dimensional and their 'natural' dialogue is anything but, yet the nature of the film is such that their annoying tendencies don't really matter. They are simply a handy plot device, and the fact that what we see is basically in their hands is a very good technique. It's not an original technique, but it suits this type of film, and adds to the claustropho... More

Is there anything as bizarre as seeing a film live up to a hype like Cloverfield has had. The film does everything right that we were hoping it would do, not since The Blair Witch Project has there been a perfected point of view concept untill Cloverfield witch sells the idea almost to well. The story is not exactly a monster film as much as it is a love story set around a monster attack where we get really great characters to get attached to. The cinematography is excellent in it´s execut... More

Okay, this is not a five star film. NO! It just isnt. The shaky cam makes me feel ill, the characters are awful and the monster, at best, is slighty eerie. First things first, the camera. Why shaky cam? It failed with the blaire witch project, why try it here? It didnt acheive anything other than aggrivation. If they do a sequel (and i agree, 2 stars should be taken then!), i hope it is done with a conventional camera style. Now the characters. I didnt care when Marlena exploded. I laughed! Yes,... More

I'm not sure how much Empire was paid to give this movie a 5 star review but I, personally, was not that impressed. This film has been done before and it has been done better. The Blair Witch Project, 28 Days Later, Independance Day...The handheld 'reality' concept was undermined by the crystal clear images with perfect lighting we were presented with.

|Camcorder Equals Bad Film
There's a reason why amateur camcorder film is so irritating, and all credit to the makers of Cloverfield, they remind us of it all the time. The Blair Witch Project - another annoying and over-rated film - tried it some years back, and the impact is no better in Cloverfield. The hand-held camera makes it difficult to watch, and nausea-inducing after about 10 minutes. The artistic danger is that, together with the pre-film hype (again reminiscent of Blair Witch) the camcorder gimic is there t... More

The characters are annoying teen/young people's show cutouts with their boring dramas between themselves, the doc-type camera gave me headache and sorry for all caps, but it annoyed me alot - THE DARN MONSTER ISN'T EVEN SCARY! After all that hype, it only had 4 effectively jumpy moments, due to the element of surprise. What a shame. ... More

Wide Receivers:
AJ Green alone is better than all of the Jets WRs combined. The Jets top 2 WRs (Jeremy Kerley and Stephen Hill) have combined for 43 receptions, 636 yards and 3 TDs. AJ Green alone has 43 receptions, 619 yards and 5 TDs. The Jets top 3 WRs (Kerley, Hill and Holmes) have combined for 53 receptions, 879 yards and just 4 TDs – and Holmes is unlikely to play. The Bengals top 3 WRs (Green, Jones, Sanu) are fairly healthy (Jones shoulder) have combined for 83 receptions, 1,096 yards and 8 TDs.
Advantage: Bengals
Tight Ends:
Kellen Winslow was having a pretty good comeback year (17 receptions, 169 yards and 2 TDs)…until he got busted for PE drugs. Note to Winslow, cheating is not very "SOLDIER" like. In his absence, Jeff Cumberland has stepped in and performed well (14 receptions, 239 yards, 17.1 ypc and 2 TDs). Cumberland is the Jets only TE threat – the other TE on the Jets roster (Reuland) has 1 catch for 7 yards. The Bengals on the other hand, feature 2 big TEs that can catch the ball (Eifert and Gresham) and have combined for 50 receptions, 544 yards, and 1 TD. Outside of the lack of TDs from the TE position, the Bengals TEs are having an outstanding year.
Advantage: Bengals

Grief and moving on after a break-up.
Anonymous asked calmingmanatee:
dear manatee, i am having a very hard time dealing with a breakup. everyone i know is insisting that i need to just give up and move on as soon as possible, but i don't feel like i'm ready to. i feel like i still want to fight to try to fix this. but at the same time i feel like that's a very silly thing to put all of my hope in. i think that while i'm still stuck here sad and lonely, he has already moved on, and i don't know where to go. it's pathetic, but i don't know what to do. can you help?
Hello sweetheart. You look especially lovely today.
You are not pathetic, and what you are doing is not pathetic either. You are a whole person, who has feelings and cares about something that was important to you. It hurts because it mattered. That is not even a little bit pathetic. Please do not ever feel like you are lesser for caring.
A relationship breaking down is very sad, and it is understandable that you feel hurt. I think it would be good for you to take some time to grieve. Give yourself a few days, or a week, just to let yourself be really, really sad. Cry anytime you remotely feel like it, listen to sad music, and start an elaborate diary full of fantasies where you rescue him or where you are swept off your feet by a dashing scientist and he is full of envy - whatever you need to do.
But once that time is up, that is it. You need to start moving on. That doesn't mean you are not allowed to be sad anymore, it means that when you start getting sad, you pick yourself up and say "Not today." Distract yourself by looking at baby penguins, reading a book, or calling a friend. Whatever you need to do.
I don't think you need to move on as soon as possible, but I do think you need to try not to invest your hopes in someone who had made their decision to not be with you. You are smart and witty and wonderful. You deserve to be with someone who wants you and wants to be with you. This person isn't the right person for you, and fighting for them won't help. You cannot fight a battle when the other person has already taken their fancy pants and gone home.
It is okay to be sad. But it will get to be less sad one day. Feel what you are feeling, then work on moving on. You are going to be just fine.
And please don't feel so alone. I love you, and your friends love you. You are wonderful, and you are so loved. One person doesn't change that.

ProCinema Line: ProC4
- Compact 3-chip DarkChip4™ DMD Full HD (1080p) DLP®- based projector (<13 Kg)
- High Brightness and native high contrast ratio
- High light efficiency with custom optics and optimized lamps
- Customizable formats (CinemaScope (2.35:1), Academy Flat (1.85:1) & wide (1.78:1))
- Full Digital inputs: DVI via HDMI™ (HDMI-HDCP compatible)
- High Bit rate video processing (10 Bit per color)
- Choice of 3 long throw zoom lenses, vertical shift.
- The smallest and lightest 3-Chip DLP® projector (<13 Kg.)
- New EasyCinema Software for accurate colorimetry calibration
- Metal cabinet and horizontal shift option (double projection)
- Easy access to lamp for replacement
- Greater freedom for colorist & director through: P7 Wide color gamut compatible with REC709
The ProC4 projector system has been designed to meet the requirements of emerging digital cinema and
post production applications. The ProC4 achieves this extraordinary picture quality through the partnership of the latest 0,95" 1080p DC4 DLP® chipset from Texas Instruments and the precision optics of SIM2's ALPHAPATH™ die-cast engine.
This projector delivers high brightness, remarkable black depth for a perfect contrast ratio and image richness. The ProC4 utilizes true 10-bit video processing (with high-definition internal scaling and de-interlacing capabilities) to create clean, artefact-free video images.
10-bits-per-channel processing produces 1024 shades of gray (or shades of a single color): the result is the ability to render over 1 billion colors on-screen, whilst also making the projector compatible with Full HD 1080p content (including 1080p@24fps).
For ease of installation, the projector sports three high quality glass lens options, namely T1 (optional lens with short throw ratio: 1,37-1,66:1), T2 (standard lens with long throw ratio: 1,75-2,48:1) and T3 (optional lens with long throw ratio 2,54-3,9:1), making it possible to project an immaculate image on a big screen.
ProC4 features SIM2's Live Color Management and EasyCinema Software offering complete control over color temperature via user-defined P7 adjustments corresponding to specific points on the CIE chart (i.e. REC 709) that defines color coordinates for cinema and video picture specialists (i.e. post production).
The ProC4 Gamma Correction (that determines the system's response to the gray scale) optimizes image-based variations in the source material and individual preferences (up to 16 parametric gamma curves ranging from 1.5 to 3 with a 0.1 increment).

Homemade Custom Benjamin Discovery Stock By Hand
Posted 04 August 2012 - 12:17 PM
Made by hand tools only, since that is all I have access to. A drill, hand held jig saw, a dremel, sandpaper, and a few hand rasps. Wanted to see if I can make a stock by hand. Was able to pull this off in about 3 weeks.
Not perfect, but I was debating on doing this for a while since I wasn't sure if it was possible with limited tools. Tried to find how to do it online, with limited information available (like how to do the inletting). Finally took the plunge just so I can see if it is even possible.
Using maple plank from Home Depot $35
Cut 3 identical pieces with hand held jig saw, then glued and clamped with gorilla glue
Sanded flush to make a poor mans stock blank
Inletted using hand drill, dremel to widen the holes, then hand rasp. Barrel channel made with sandpaper around a toilet plunger handle.
Thumb hole made the same way. drill, dremel, then rasp.
Then hand rasp for contouring
Contouring done.
Sanding and finishing. No stains.
Finished off with Bisley recoil pad
With the gun mounted on.
Then I went and shot it:

My set of craftsman power tools have been with me for nigh 10 years. NiCad batteries and their quirks all that time. Now that I've upgraded to the Lithium Ion Batteries it feels like new life has been breathed into my system. Better function of the battery and, because the older batteries were likely weakening, I feel I have more torque available. It was a decision I wrestled with and now am thoroughly glad I made.

This is a strong battery pack. Charges quick and last a long time. Bought another one for a spare, so always ready to go. I would recommend this to anyone

its very pricy without a coupon, but if you get a nice sale they are well worth the money. YOU do need a different charger then the black cheap batteries so keep that in mind.

With equal parts humor and intensity, True West dissects the American Dream and the divide it creates between imagination and reality. Sam Shepard's most popular black comedy is a gritty examination of two warring brothers that has inspired a new generation of playwrights, including the UK's Martin McDonagh, to take their own darkly comic look at sibling rivalry. Through the power struggle between Austin and Lee, True West brings the question of cultural and individual identity into sharp focus.

505 Promenade du Centropolis
Laval, Québec
Bus: STL 42, 60, 61, 66, 70
Visit: October 29, 2013
Growing up, we all had those grandparents who cooked for us and had their secret recipes. To this day, my own grandparents still cook weekly and gather their family around the dinner table. There are some places that turn that family tradition into a advertising concept. One of those places is Enoteca Mozza in Laval.
With the year underway, it was time to establish a regular series of restaurant visits with the one and only, Steakman. Since things came up at the last minute, our scheduled stop had to pushed back to a later date. So, we had to think on our feet to come up with a restaurant that was within a reasonable distance. For some reason or another, I was the bright one to come up with the idea of going to Mozza in Laval.
For the last few years, I've been hearing all kinds of ads from Mozza on the radio. These ads all rely on the theme of a grandmother's recipes from the old country. When she hears that they're making money off of them, she all communications. It's an interesting hook and one worthy to check out. A few months back, I was having a conversation with a colleague, when they mentioned the desserts at the restaurant. So, all those combining factors pushed it to the top of my list of curiosities.
We entered the Laval location at the early stages of the supper rush. At this point, we were thinking that we might have to think of another place to go to, but there were tables being served at this time. So, there was absolutely no issue getting a table. We were seated in this large hybrid booth area. From our vantage point, we could see the front entrance and the bar area, so it wasn't such a bad place to sit.
We knew right away that we were going to order pizza. After all, the restaurant touts itself as a pizzeria moderna. Steakman, who likes his pizza, had reservations about the product, as it was not consistent according to his past experiences here. For me, I was more interested in the appetizers, which I've been taking everything opportunity at for the last year.
Since it wasn't that busy, we would think that the service wouldn't be suffering. There were times where we were kept waiting for quite a while. There were times where we had to compel the food runner to either get our server or get us the dessert menu. When we asked another server for something, they responded by telling us to tell our actual server. They weren't largely confrontational interactions, but they didn't sit well with us. Though not the main factor, it's probably the reason why we didn't stay for dessert.
On another note, you may be judging me for mentioning the following, but it's another thing that can't be avoided. Throughout the time we spent there, we noticed that there were particular assets being displayed and it had nothing to do with food. The best way I can explain this without being too vulgar is to reference that episode of Seinfeld where Elaine tries to apply for a job at the diner. I'm hoping they're not doing it on purpose to try to attract customers and there is a kids' menu there. I've visited many restaurants in the last 4 years and never did I feel compelled to point it out to who I was sitting with.
With all that being said, I think it's more important to actually see how the food would turn out to be. Our approach for this visit was to take a few appetizers and go on to try the wood over fired pizza.
Mamma's Meatballs ($9)
These are slow cooked meatballs with basil. Also included is a sauce.
To start with, the size of the meatballs was quite generous. The sauce that came with them complimented the dish quite well. What really made me happy here was the fact that despite the size, the whole thing was cooked quite nicely.
Arancini ($8)
These are Italian rice balls stuffed with prosciutto and mozzarella. This also includes an Italian dipping sauce.
Over the last few months, arancini has been one of the appetizer dishes that I look the most forward to. The risotto appetizer prompted Steakman to mention his recent visit to Gordon Ramsay's New York restaurant. There, after the restaurant met his request for a little less lemon, he was completely satisfied with the risotto experience. Suffice it to say, we like anything risotto based after watching his show.
The arancini here wasn't half bad. I really liked the crispiness of the crust, as it wasn't too hard or too soft. The only thing that I would suggest is that you take advantage of the dipping sauce. Without it, you might be disappointed by the arancini. At this point, the appetizers got thing underway with a decent start. But with Steakman's warning, the pizza might change the complexion of the game.
Before we get to the actual pizza we ordered and how it turned out, I want to mention the one positive thing that came from the interaction with our server. When we went to order the pizza, since we ordered the same one, we were told that ordering the family size would save us money. I don't think we were, at this point, dumb enough to turn down that offer. Either way, it worked out that we had the same amount of slices with each pizza.
Pancetta ($20)
This pizza normally contains mozzarella, caramelized onions, and pancetta. We asked that the onions be removed to leave us with a more simple pancetta pizza.
The first thing you notice when you pick up a slice of this pizza is just how thin it is. One of Steakman's comments from a past visit is that the bottom gets burnt really easily. A burnt slice isn't such a great thing unless you like the taste of smoke and coals. Here, I made it a point to take a look at the bottom and I noticed that it wasn't as burnt, but there were a few spots. That wasn't a deal breaker
With the lack of onions on this pizza after our request, which there was no issues getting, the distribution of the pancetta looked a tad bit spotty. There were gaps of pizza where you would only get a bite of dough and sauce. I think a good bite requires all your components at once, much like a burger.
Probably the one thing that didn't sit well with me the most was the consistency of the dough when taking a bite. Each time I took a bite, it felt like the dough seemed more like flour than anything else. I'm used to getting greasy hands when eating a pizza. In this case, I had to wipe off the flour regularly.
To end things, I want to finish with something positive. With the pancetta on the pizza, I felt like that elevated the product beyond some of the issues we had. The taste and quality of the meat couldn't be denied.
Final Verdict
Enoteca Mozza runs a pretty good advertising campaign with a worthy social media presence, but that's not all there is to life. Our visit was full of ups and downs, with some aspects that I would like to forget. The appetizers were the stars of the show, as the pizza was somewhat disappointing.

Still, free access to the Betfair API is enough to build an effective piece of software and you can then decide if it is worth spending £200 a month for full access.
On the Betfair Developer Program (BDP) forum there is a lot of help for those starting out on coding their own software. With Betfair now migrating from the old SOAP based API-6.0 to the JSON based API-NG I recommend that users read the API-NG forum on the Betfair Developer Program website. My initial thoughts are that API-NG is a vast improvement over API-6.0.
I have also written a few articles myself on this blog about coding using API-NG under Visual Basic. However, this list is incomplete as I now write API-NG articles for SmartSigger magazine, a monthly magazine that covers many aspects of sports betting mathematics and coding.
Because API-6.0 will cease to work in April 2015 I can no longer recommend the excellent thread, started by user Mumbles0 elsewhere on the forum, that has helped many Betfair users to write their own software, myself included. I include the list of his articles at the bottom of this page solely for those still coding with the old API. If you are about to begin coding then I suggest you save time use API-NG.
You might like to consider buying Automatic Exchange Betting, which covers many aspects of trading on Betfair and programming using Betfair's API. Although the code is in Perl it can be easily ported to another language.
Automatic Exchange Betting covers the construction of an automated system and goes a long way into system building using odds lines, weight of money, average prices etc. The book is very detailed and will give the reader a deep understanding of automated exchange trading and program development.
Another book that details the construction of an automated betting system is Calculated Bets: Computers, Gambling and Mathematical Modeling to Win. Written by Professor Steven Skiena, Calculated Bets details the professor's successful modelling Jai Alai matches, developing a trading strategy using Monte Carlo methods and then implementing bet automation.
Designing your trading software
Rather than trying to code the ultimate trading platform straight away, you should first build simple single-task tools to handle repetitve tasks. You can then add your own metrics for manipulating Betfair data. After that you might want to automate betting and position tracking. Finally, you can code a bot that does all of the above whilst acting under your own trading rules.
Betfair is currently rolling out API-NG, a JSON based replacement for the current SOAP based API-6.0. My first impressions are that this is a much easier API to understand and code with. Having had to read and modify Mumbles0's code to suit my needs, this time I have coded an API-NG application quite easily by myself.
I would recommend anyone writing Betfair trading software now to start doing so with API-NG as any programs running on API-6.0 will not function after April 2015.
Click on the Betfair API-NG topic for a current list of tutorials that I have written about the API so far.
I am now writing a column in SmartSigger magazine detailing the use of API-NG for bot programming. Each month I explain how to use an aspect of API-NG in a simple bot programmed in Visual Basic. I recommend SmartSigger, the only betting magazine written by pro-bettors.

Search for MH370 debris
An air search in the southern Indian Ocean for possible objects from the missing Malaysia Airlines plane described as the "best lead" so far ended for the day without success Thursday but will resume in the morning, Australian rescue officials said.
The four planes were checking to see if two large objects spotted in satellite imagery bobbing in the remote ocean were debris from Fight 370 that disappeared March 8 with 239 people on board.
One of the objects was 24 metres in length and the other was 5 metres. There could be other objects in the area, a four-hour flight from Australia's southwestern coast, said John Young, manager of the Australian Maritime Safety Authority's emergency response division.
"This is a lead, it's probably the best lead we have right now," Young said. He cautioned that the objects could be seaborne debris along a shipping route where containers can fall off cargo vessels, although the larger object is longer than a container.
A statement from the authority said the four planes searched an area of 23,000 square kilometres about 2,500 kilometres southwest of Perth on Thursday without success.
"The search will continue on Friday," it said.
News that possible plane parts had been found marked a new phase in the emotional roller coaster for distraught relatives of the passengers, who have criticized Malaysia harshly for not releasing timely information about the plane. While they still hope their loved ones will somehow be found, they acknowledged that news of the possible debris could mean the plane plunged into the ocean.
"If it turns out that it is truly MH370 then we will accept that fate," said Selamat Bin Omar, the father of a Malaysian passenger on the jet, which carried mostly Chinese and Malaysian nationals.
But he cautioned that relatives still "do not yet know for sure whether this is indeed MH370 or something else. Therefore we are still waiting for further notice from the Australian government."
Malaysian Defence Minister Hishammuddin Hussein told a news conference Thursday that "for all the families around the world, the one piece of information that they want most is the information we just don't have -- the location of MH370."
Young said the depth of the ocean in the latest area, which is south from where the search had been focused since Monday, is several thousand metres.
The area where the debris was spotted is about halfway between Australia and desolate islands off the Antarctic.
Flight 370 disappeared on a night flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. Malaysian authorities have not ruled out any possible explanation, but have said the evidence so far suggests the plane was deliberately turned back across Malaysia to the Strait of Malacca, with its communications systems disabled. They are unsure what happened next.
Police are considering the possibility of hijacking, sabotage, terrorism or issues related to the mental health of the pilots or anyone else on board.

|Enjoying the students' cat-themed art at Catstravaganza. Come see the dog art at Dogapalooza.
|Dog history exhibit on display at the Chemung County Humane Society and SPCA
In November, our new exhibit, "To Do No Harm: Medicine in Chemung County," will open. The exhibit itself will be great because we have many fascinating, sometimes gruesome, medical artifacts that we'll be able to show-off. However, what I'm personally most excited about is our interactive component. At the start of the exhibit, you will be able to choose 1 of 9 stories that will guide you through the exhibit. These are all accounts of a fictional historical resident of Chemung County who faces a medical problem. Like those great choose-your-own adventure books, your story will guide you through the exhibit as you decide which doctor you will see, what medicines to take, and more. We're making a push to do more programming and exhibit work that will give visitors an immersive historical experience.
|Uh oh, it's the 1800s and you broke a bone! What do you do? Follow our interactive stories in our medical exhibit to find out!
Mark The Mammoth
You may have seen our adorable new Museum Ambassador, Mark the Mammoth, on our social media accounts or in person at the museum. Mark represents our first foray into Twitter (you can follow him @MarkTheMammoth) and also a fun, informal way to connect with the public. We put Mark in costumes (we just had staff contest to design a Halloween costume for Mark- congratulations to the winner, Erin) and have him make friends in the community. Through Twitter, we have been able to join an international community of museums. Mark routinely talks to other museums and museum mascots (there are surprisingly a lot of them on Twitter) about Chemung County. Many of these people will never visit the museum, but Mark's Twitter account is a way to share our collections with these folks, anyway. Mark has chatted about rain boots with a teddy bear mascot for an Estonian toy museum and about exhibit design with a giant extinct Irish deer from a UK museum. We also participate in the weekly #MewseumMonday, where museums share images of their feline-themed collections. While these encounters may seem small, they are not only telling people about what we're doing, but they are also providing us with an endless source of ideas for programs and exhibits. Rule #1 for museum creativity: when you see something good that someone else is doing, steal it for yourself!

It's Back To School Week in NYC!
I hope you're taking
notes. Here, I'll write it in bold for you: Fire
Principals. But
don't expect to be spoon-fed like this after graduation. It's not
like there's, say, a glossy magazine that tells people who lack critical
faculties where to go and what to do. (Think they'll do a feature this
week on the 10-day San Gennaro
Festival? 9/9-19
on Mulberry St.)
The Heimytown faculty spent
its summer on a research sabbatical, excavating notices about edifying events.
What we discovered will shock you: Starting this Friday, there will be, at the
Goethe Institut,
a display of pencils from the private collection of Count Anton Wolfgang von
Faber-Castell. "The
World's Most Beautiful Pencils"
(in celebration of Faber-Castell's 150th year of business in the U.S.,
9/10-18, 1014 5th Ave. at 82nd St., 439-8700) includes the oldest known pencil
in existence and pencils used by Ulysses S. Grant and Otto von Bismarck, respectively
(the pencils used by both of them weren't all that beautiful, I guess).
Count Anton Wolfgang von Faber-Castell will not, unfortunately, be on hand to
receive thanks from America's students. Just remember, children, that he
who owns these pencils is not only (maybe) the man who made SATs possible–he
was also (perhaps) the inspiration for Sesame Street's beloved Count.
Talk about your Masters in Education.
Another great teacher who
reminds me of a Muppet is Flavor Flav of Public Enemy. Flav laughed like the
Count during "Welcome to the Terrordome," but it's the less terrifying
"Fight the Power" that represents P.E. on the new
compilation of political hiphop
selected by Flav's partner, Chuck D, for Rhino. Louder Than a Bomb
hits stores this week, and it's a text you can dance to, with classic cuts
like Stetsasonic's "A.F.R.I.C.A.," B.D.P.'s "You Must
Learn" and Paris' "Bush Killa"–which might prove relevant
again very soon–riding shotgun with Dr. Dre's "The Day The Niggaz
Took Over," Common's "I Used to Love H.E.R." and Jeru the
Damaja's "You Can't Stop the Prophet" (Pete Rock Remix).
The latter features a Count-like laugh by Jeru's nemesis, Mr. Ignorance,
that chills the spine. Jeru's Black Prophet character was, of course, endowed
with "super-scientifical powers" when "struck by knowledge of
self." God I love that song.
And it's true about
knowledge of self giving you power. Let me take a second to tell my own people
that for those who don't know squat about our culture and heritage, the
American Jewish Heritage Organization's annual High Holyday services for
beginners will be held on Rosh
Hashana and
Yom Kippur mornings
at the Loews Tower Theater.
(Sat. 9/11, 10 a.m.,
3rd Ave. at 72nd St., 439-8754; Yom Kippur service 9/20 at 10 a.m., same location.)
No tickets or reservations necessary, and you might run into someone you recognize
from Mount Sinai, where all Jewish souls gathered back when God gave the Torah
to Moses. Or maybe that's just the guy who works at your drycleaners–I
dunno, you tell me.
Saturday is also the National
Day of Art to Stop the Execution of Mumia Abu-Jamal–a
holiday almost as old as Rosh Hashana but not quite. Let's just say that
if poetry readings freed prisoners, Mumia would be as unleashed as Lenny
Kravitz by now. (Lenny, incidentally, will perform his Nissan
sport utility vehicle commercial and other songs Weds., 9/8, at Madison
Square Garden,
32nd St. at 7th Ave., 465-MSG1, $35-65.) I don't want to sound like I've
been hanging out with Mr. Ignorance, and I'm against the execution of Mumia
because I'm opposed to the death penalty, but I can say with certainty
that free-Mumia activists as a whole don't cut it as educators. None of
the many I've heard from over the past few years even tried to convince
me he didn't kill that cop. I'm supposed to join in telling the world
he didn't do it just because he writes books and wears dredlocks. I don't
think that's what Chuck D meant when he said "follow for now."
Chuck included my all-time
favorite underground rap act on Louder Than a Bomb, and they're
also down for the Mumia cause–knowing, I hope, a hell of a lot more about
it than I do. I'm talking about Poor
Righteous Teachers, the reggae-hybridizing Five Percenters
from Trenton who made some of the hottest, least compromising hiphop of the
pre-Wu-Tang era but never got much credit for it. They'll perform Friday
night at a show for Mumia at Wetlands,
opening for Dead Prez, who are renowned for their live act, and Heltah Skeltah,
along with one of the scrappiest underground rappers of the moment, J-Live.
(Fri., 9/10, 161 Hudson St. at Laight St., 386-3600, $15.) Not what my rabbi
wants me to be doing on Erev Rosh Hashana, but at least it's a benefit.
This is the week that Lincoln
Center gets under
way with its new season, and while there is an event there I want to highlight
let me first list all the advertisers in Lincoln Center's Sept./Oct. stagebill:
The Mall at Short Hills. Range Rover, Lancome Lipstick. United Airlines. It's
a haiku, you see. Now for that event: on Tuesday Nat Hentoff moderates a "Jazz
Talk" between George Avakian and Teo Macero on "The
Recorded Legacy of Duke Ellington."
(Tues., 9/14, 7 p.m. at Lincoln Center's Kaplan Penthouse, Rose Bldg.,
10th fl., 165 W. 65th St., betw. B'way & Amsterdam Ave., 875-5599.)
During the last year, Hentoff's
Voice column offered the most compelling arguments yet raised against
school choice. The reporter actually documented the existence of several excellent
New York City public schools that would likely lose funding under the proposed
voucher plan. It's hard to argue with what works.
That's exactly what a group
called the American Menopause Foundation is trying. Declaring September "Menopause
Awareness Month" (for those keeping score at home, a Heimytown pause for
review: July was Hot Dog Month, and August was Anal Sex Month), this cabal of
doctors sent out press releases apparently designed to coerce magazines into
scaring menopausal women away from self-medicating with herbs. They offer an
easy-to-read table titled "herbal medication toxicity," with column
heads, "Common Name," "Botanical Name," "Purported
Use" and "Toxicity." So reading across for, to take an example,
"Passion Flower," it goes, "Passiflora caerulea," "Sedative"
and then "Seizures, hypotension, Hallucinogen." Such bullshit! Pharmaceutical
companies get not only doctors, but reporters, too, to slander their relatively
safe, cheap and effective competition! For me, this–the medical/pharmaceutical
monopoly–is our time's big issue, linking education with the health
care crisis, racism (the drug war stems from it), the death penalty (why would
a state so bad at deciding what substances are okay for citizens' consumption
be any better at determining who should die?), school violence (the pharmaceutical
co.'s don't want you to know about Harris and Kleibold's prescriptions–while
it's obvious from their musical taste that those two needed a bonghit)
and neocolonialism.
You won't see me bringing
this shit up at the annual symposium of the American
Menopause Foundation (9/13, 5:45 p.m. at Hotel Intercontinental's
Astor Ballroom, 111 E. 48th St., betw. Park & Lexington Aves., 714-2398,
$50 incl. buffet dinner), because I'll still be hungover from trying to
save Mumia. But here are two facts. When the American Medical Association achieved,
through an act of Congress, their monopoly on the right to practice medicine
in the U.S., they were bloodletters. Write this down: bloodletters. Secondly,
there are time-tested herbal treatments for the discomfort associated with menopause
(and a lot of other ailments) that are at least as potentially beneficial as,
yet far less likely to do harm than, the pill products pharmaceutical companies
so effectively hardsell. Read books by Dr. Andrew Weil to learn more.
Now that I sound like a
card-carrying member of the hemp movement (there're actually very few of
those, because they tend to smoke their cards), I might as well promote Transportation
Alternatives' Century Bike Tour, which
is on Sunday. Chose from 35-, 50-, 75- or 100-mile routes, all featuring rest
stops at zoos and parks, with refreshments donated by Ben & Jerry's,
Krispy Kreme, Gatorade (now there's a nutritious meal) and others. At the
end you get a free massage, courtesy of FingerWorks, and an organic cotton t-shirt,
courtesy of Patagonia. It's $40 to participate ($45, day of tour)–call
629-8080 or check www.transalt.org to sign up.
I agree with Transportation
Alternatives that cars are the public school administrators, the American Medical
Association, of our city streets. There's an institution of utter nonsense
illegitimately ruling the public indoors in New York as well–it's
called the cabaret licensing law. I'm happy to report that one former "no-dancing"
bar recently made its way through the labyrinthine trials of this absurd statute.
will mark the occasion in the most appropriate way, "hold[ing] a party/gathering
so joyful and full of dance that unreasonable ordinances and archaic laws will
be reduced to a bitter memory." It's a 48-hour marathon, starting
with the N'ice
party (deep house) on Friday, getting more into techno all day Saturday with
Matt E. Silver and Khan, Dirty and Rebecca Swift of Temple Records, then "Direct
(jungle) on Saturday
night, with DJ Wally, Cassien, Seoul and others, then the "Nice
n' Easy"
crew (featuring Kienyo & Tomo) riding out Sunday with triphop and abstract
beats. (9/10-12, 418 W. 14th St., betw. 9th Ave. & Washington St., 206-1590
or www.baktun.com, $10.) On that note, be aware of Friday night's set by
DJs Tayla and D.R.S., of the UK's Goodlooking records, offering a rare
Stateside dose of the "rolling" (i.e., jazzier) jungle style they
do over there. That's at the "Above
the Clouds"
party at Speeed,
and it's a benefit for AIDS awareness charities. (9/10, 20 W. 39th St.,
betw. 5th & 6th Aves., 252-4480, $12.)
