A little about me...
I will tell you later - send me a message.
About the one I'm looking for...
" First let me say that without a photo or returnable just keep going. I'm allowing you to see me, then please have the same courtesy for me.
Some of the best words my friends and family have used to describe me are caring, compassionate, and loyal. I like to think I am also adventurous, spontaneous, and a friendly person. I have raised my family, so the lucky man that gets my attention is getting the best me there has ever been.
My interests and hobbies are many and varied. To name a few activities, I like traveling, live entertainment, and various sports events. I especially enjoy the Saints football, Braves baseball, Alabama football, and Duke basketball. However, I will let you plead your case for your team too.
I am looking for someone that likes to travel, have a sense of humor, considerate, kind, and be a good conversationalist as well as a good listener. "
I'd just like to add...
When it comes to the first date, I would say to go for the basics of lunch or dinner. It depends how long you have taken to get to know me. Since I love surprises, then rest is up to you.

Do you know your Keats from your Yeats? Take the famous poets quiz!

My long-promised new blog STOMPBEAST is now up and running. Actually, it's been up and running for a few months, but I wanted some time "in the dark" to develop some sort of voice and focus. Since THAT wound up being a washout, we're offering up five months of random introverted excavations for your dining and dancing pleasure: a 13-part deep reading of the Brat Pack flick St. Elmo's Fire, coverage of the 2010 Angel City Jazz Festival,a review of Nels Cline's DIRTY BABY, an essay on Errol Morris and my latest interview with pianist/sound sculpturist Motoko Honda.
Well, pards, it's been three exciting years here at the Beast, but we must be movin' on. We had an awesome time attempting to turn this blog from a de rigueur attempt at self-promotion to something. . .uh, a little bit more than that. Have we succeeded? We have no idea. Oftentimes, it feels like manning a Morse Code substation in the Arctic Circle: ".. ... - .... . .-. . .- -. -.-- -... --- -.. -.-- --- ..- - - .... . .-. . ..--..? .- -. -.-- -... --- -.. -.-- .- - .- .-.. .-.. ..--.. ..--.. ..--..?!?"
At any rate, yours truly is now walking out the door into a scary and frightening world of freelance chaos. I am in the process of (natch) starting my own blog which we be a continuation of my obsessions -- musical, medicinal and otherwise -- that have taken shape over my tenure here at Downbeast.
Anyhoo, we'll let you know when that starts up. In the meantime, much love, respect, and thanks to Cryptogramophone's Fearless Leader JEFF GAUTHIER for letting me go on (and on and on and on) with this lil' bloggy-wog. By far, he's the best boss I've never drawn obscene caricatures of on the bathroom wall. Another shout-out to all of the great musicians who have rolled through the Crypto Head Office and were quite gracious in answering all of my pestering questions. And thanks to y'all for reading!
(POSTSCRIPT: Our friend and L.A. jazz sage Steven L. Isoardi, has just published "The Return of Henry Grimes" his long-awaited account of the remarkable rehabilitation of the former Albert Ayler/Cecil Taylor bassist at the hands of two teeenage jazz enthusiasts. It's a terrific story, and one that has not been told in its entirety -- much less by someone who was actually there to witness it. Congrats, Steve!)
We here at the Beast don't usually do CD reviews (we overdosed on them in the Nineties and simply ran out of 10-cent adjectives) but we met guitarist/pianist Matt Ritvo at the old Pasadena Jazz Institute space and Mimi Melnick's Jazz Salon (which, by the way, was just referenced in Rex Butter's new AAJ profile of another gee-tar guy). Quite honestly, he was so soft-spoken we never would have guessed the guy had assembled a powerhouse L.A. sextet of elder statesmen for his debut CD: Rahmlee Michael Davis (trumpet), Bobby English (tenor sax), Michael Session (tenor sax), Roberto Miguel Miranda (bass) and Woodrow "Sonship" Theus (drums).
The opener, "Dirty Murray," sets the scene for this understated disc that's ocassionally spiked with spirited intensity. Ritvo's solo piano intro takes its time before unfolding a slo-drag blues shuffle with simple sax harmony. Ritvo's busy piano runs meld melody and dissonance, spurred by the Coltranisms of Session's tenor sax -- soon joined by English as their voices intertwine like a pair of morning glory vines. "Blues for Sonship," the CD's centerpiece, is named after the gloriously eccentric percussionist, who at live shows would often break into possessed and riveting holy pronouncements from his drum seat that could go on for twenty minutes (the Beast actually witnessed this). The tune launches with Ritvo on crystalline guitar -- firmly ensconced in the Joe Pass-Wes Montgomery pantheon -- and features a "snapping" bass solo by Roberto Miranda. Davis' trumpet recalls muted Miles, although quicker and more acrobatic, like an ornery hornet. There's some furious vamping by Session and English before Mr. Theus himself -- who's been playing deceptive possum throughout the tune -- explodes in a thunderous drum break that enables one to understand why, back in the day, people like Alex Cline argued over who would carry his traps.
Matt Ritvo leads studio rehearsal with Roberto Miranda
With the exception of "Blues for Sonship," most of these tunes are bite-sized snippets (both "Queensberry Street" and its reprise clock in at barely more than a minute). "The Path" breathes like a funky film-noir soundtrack before ending in a horrified peal of dissonance. "396 Bellevue" carries an off-kilter melody that seems to backs up on itself, creating an aural illusion that almost sounds like you're listening to it in reverse. Ritvo's halting barrelhouse-inflected piano interlude brings the song down to concert-hall quiet softness before the tune fades out like smoke from a departing train.
The Matt Ritvo Group: "The Path"
All in all, a wonderfully under-the-radar release that will prove essential to any salt-worthy L.A. jazz snerd. You can pick up the CD here.

PART LAST: "WE WILL ENDEAVOR TO SWING" (2007-Now)
February 2007: Nels Cline is voted the #4 "New Guitar God" by Jann Wenner's struggling indie 'zine Rolling Stone:
For many rock-guitar fiends, the oldest guitarist on this list is actually the newest. Before joining Wilco in 2004, in time to tour behind A Ghost is Born, Cline -- born in Los Angeles in 1956 -- was a highly regarded figure in jazz and avant-rock circles, a sonically aggressive guitarist who played with Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore, the art-country band the Geraldine Fibbers and his own searing instrumental groups. Now Cline agitates the bent-pop designs in Wilco's recent music with strafing feedback, zigzagging distortion and, when you least expect it, a striking, scarred romanticism. (David Fricke, Rolling Stone, 2/22/07)
Nels immediately begins concocting self-effacing and embarrassed responses.
"The guitar (god) thing…whatever."
(Nels, Cincinatti Citybeat, 6/10/09)

In early 2004, the Singers add a new word to their already-expansive vocabulary:
wil•co \ˈwil-(ˌ)kō\
interj [will comply] (ca. 1938) – used especially in radio and signaling to indicate that a message received will be complied with
(Merriam-Webster Dictionary)
Wilco lineup circa 2003. From Left: Leroy Bach, Glenn Kotche, The Tweedman, John Stirratt
NELS CLINE: I met Jeff Tweedy in 1996 when The Geraldine Fibbers opened for Golden Smog (a "fun" side project made up of members of The Jayhawks, Soul Asylum, Run Westy Run, et al). The Fibbers really cottoned to Mr. Tweedy, seeming to single him out as "special". I'm rather chagrined to say that I didn't really notice him any more than the other fellows… (nelscline.com)
PAT SANSONE (Wilco guitarist/keyboardist): "Ah, Nels. I first met Nels about twelve years ago at South By Southwest when he was playing with the Geraldine Fibbers...We had a long, intense and deep conversation that really touched me -- and he has no recollection of it whatsoever." (from Wilco: Ashes of American Flags DVD)
Cline has been making records since Wilco's leader Jeff Tweedy was in grade school.
(Bill Moyer, Chicago Tribune, 11/09/04)
"I just joined Wilco!"
(Nels Cline to this blogger, 3/04)
Holy crap, dudes. Nels Cline is going to be playing live with Wilco "for the foreseeable future." Are you excited as me? You should be. (post on Done Waiting bulletin board, 3/04/04)
NELS: Carla Bozulich – (Fibbers leader) stayed in touch with Jeff, and when we would play Chicago, Jeff would come to the gigs and/or lend me gear…What a generous and friendly sort he seemed! Little did I realize that he was kind of keeping tabs on me. (nelscline.com)

Devin! Hoff! [photo via Downtown Music]
DEVIN: "I grew up in Fort Collins, Colorado, which was a farm town before it became a college town. It's smack dab between Boulder and Cheyenne [Wyoming], and kind of culturally reflects that geography: A lotta rednecks and a lotta hippies! So as a kid you kind of grow up in that mix. There's some urban influence and some rural influence, but it's not quite either. It's kind of confusing." (Interview, 3/11/10)
DEVIN: "My dad [guitarist Bard Hoff] is a musician and my mom's father was a farmer and a semi-professional country-western musician. My mom is a rocker, so I probably absorbed Led Zeppelin and the Small Faces in utero…so it was almost a no-brainer what I would end up doing for a living: the family business!...My dad knew a lot of musicians from the Denver scene…like Hugh Regan, who's worked with Roscoe Mitchell, and David Murray. They would come over to my house a couple times a week when I was little…and play Charlie Parker and Anthony Braxton and Albert Ayler. It fucks with your ears at an early age. I grew up hearing that stuff as normal." (Interview, 3/11/10)
Continue reading "THE NELS CLINE SINGERS: An Oral History (2 of 4)" »
Having just celebrated our 10th anniversary here at the Crypto Nerve Center, we have another milestone upon us: The Nels Cline Singers are also reaching their first decade (and four albums' worth) of delicate lyricism, groove-laden fuzz-funk workouts and face-melting sonic deviance – all without any discernible singing.
Since joining the critically lauded rock group Wilco in 2004, Nels Cline has emerged in recent years as one of the most respected, argued-over and unclassifiable musicians active today – memorably described by Jazz Times as "the world's most dangerous guitarist" and by bestselling author David Carr (Night of the Gun) as "one of the best in any genre." Ironically, Cline formed the Singers in 2001 not entirely on his own accord but at the urging of versatile percussionist Scott Amendola, a New Jersey-born Black Sabbath and Ornette Coleman acolyte who had gained prominence in San Francisco's heady, dot com-era music scene of the early 90s though his collaborations with guitarist Charlie Hunter and saxophonist Phillip Greenlief.
Buy these...you will buuuuuy these...
It was Greenlief who introduced Cline to Amendola, who then brought in Colorado native Devin Hoff, a young contrabassist equally at ease with Norwegian Black Metal as he was with improvised skronkitude. What emerged was a impeccably pedigreed and potently eclectic band of three successive generations of vanguard virtuosos whose buzz has only grown with each subsequent release – Instrumentals (2002), The Giant Pin (2004), Draw Breath (2007) and their new world music-influenced double-CD Initiate (2010), which Tim Niland of Music and More recently called "a fascinating and thrilling journey."
With the release of Initiate on APRIL 13, we at the Beast thought we'd forgo the usual promo interviews (although don't get us wrong -- we did those, too) and instead pay homage to all the dogged and loyal scribes -- famous, infamous and anonymous – who have provided us with ten years of solid and devoted journalism, opinions, rants, interviews, whining and live reviews on the NCS. Coupled with brand spankin' new interviews with Nels, Scott and Devin, we have fashioned a musical journey of three accomplished and twisted April fools using the "found voices" of the past decade. Enjoy!

Be it Fabian or Pat Boone serving as a clean cut kid's introduction to the real rock & roll music of Little Richard & Charlie Feathers, or 'The Boss' inadvertently turning young kids onto the fury of Suicide & Albert Ayler, it doesn't really matter as long as the road winds though the same valleys & vistas and offers an exit to the less-trampled venues.
Dennis Callaci, The Village Idiot (1999)
We at Crypto were elated/amazed when we hit the ten-year mark as an indie alt-jazz concern, but we must pause to give props to the abovequoted Mr. Callaci, who since 1990 has headed the mystically resilient lo-fi mail-order label Shrimper Records.
Callaci founded Shrimper (unrelated to the slang term for "toe-sucking," as well as another fetish so disgusting that decorum forbids mentioning it here) with his wife Catherine Guffey in the sleepy bedroom-community of Upland, California. Shrimper is a truly indie operation, from its home office (Jazz-Age, red-brick bungalow behind white picket fence) and recording "techniques" (Shrimper helped make tape hiss hip), mom 'n' pop distribution (starting with $3 cassette tapes dubbed one-by-one and mailed from a P.O. Box in San Berdoo), slackerish promotional attitude (press kit: Ralph's grocery sack stuffed with cassettes, CDs and vinyl--often with a handwritten note in Callaci's apologetic scrawl). Although the Shrimper came to encompass acts from Boston and The Netherlands, Shrimper's specialty was freakish folk, mellow hip hop, noisy experimentation and bash-pop from the tract-home anomie of SoCal's "Inland Empire." No doubt this aesthetic influenced L.A. junkyard-music hermits like Beck and Ariel Pink.
Dennis Callaci punches out Matt Damon
Ah, those pholkes at Soul Jazz Records have done it again. Mere months after their fascinating (and long overdue) study of indie jazz cover art of the 1970s, they've re-released 2004's A Message from the Tribe, a lovingly restored anthology of the underground Detroit jazz-funk label Tribe Records. The specially-packaged box set contains early performances by trombone madman Phil Ranelin [pictured below] before he moved out to LA-LA Land and became an integral part of our local "scene" -- if one can call it that. We recommend seeking out Ranelin's Nixon-era lost classics like The Time is Now (1974) and Vibes from the Tribe (1976).

Misguided Volvo Adviceby kristoph42
I believe you were a little misguided in your determination that the Volvo that didn't roll back on hills had something wrong with it. My Land Rover Freelander (and I'm certain the Volvo has it as well) has a feature called Hill Hold. There is a sensor that detects the vehicle is on a hill nose up. When the brake is released, the RPMs will climb enough to hold the vehicle in place. On a level surface this does not happen so the vehicle does not pull forward as you stated.

The results are in as the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety in Ruckersville handed out its ratings on safety when it comes to small cars.
If you want to cruise in a safe ride, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety says it should stand up to accidents, from all sides.
In the latest crash tests, that's just what the Kia Sedona did making it a top safety pick, and the only minivan to ever do so.
"The Kia Sedona provides good protection in frontal crashes, rear crashes, and also side impacts, so that's good news for families shopping for that," said Adrian Lund, the President of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
General Motors' minivan, the Uplander, got some of the lowest marks. It did not perform well in side tests. Its rear seat actually detached from the car in the test with optional side airbags.
General Motors responded to the results saying, "In the 10 years this basic structure has been in use for these vans and their predecessors, we know of no cases in which a rear seat became detached in a side impact."
The automaker says the test does not warrant concern, but the Uplander's design will still be improved.
If you're in the market for a safe small car instead, Subaru's Impreza got the top safety pick award.
In the Institute's first test of a hybrid, the Toyota Prius performed well in frontal crash tests. In side impact tests it did well with optional side airbags, but poorly without.
Also giving families a few more safer choices are, the Honda Odyssey, Toyota Sienna, and Nissan Quest. Those minivans also got good marks from the institute.

ISKCON Youth bus the famous Garuda 2 is for Sale
Dravinaksa Das: Some very kind-hearted devotees have purchased a newer bus for the ISKCON Youth Tour. We are selling our original bus, the famous Garuda 2, in order to pay off our loan on it. Here is an opportunity to upgrade your Sankirtan vehicle, acquire an events vehicle for your congregation or start your own youth tour. The following is a brief description of Garuda 2. For complete specifications contact Dravinaksa Das at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 386-418-1251. View pictures at photobucket.com/ramaphoto.
If you have been waiting for the right coach, you don't have to wait any longer. This custom design is geared for church youth tours with full cooking, showering and sleeping facilities for 25 to 30 persons. All the construction is straightforward and very sturdy, but easy to remove for future customizing. The user friendly design is fully functional as it is and can be converted to a luxury motor home without major effort by utilizing the existing mechanical systems and open layout.
Success starts with a state of the art Series 60 engine and Allison automatic transmission, a combination that offers ample power, low emissions, and smooth shifting. The air suspension keeps the driving silky smooth.
It's no secret that MCI's D- series coach is the largest selling coach in North America. Its reputation for reliability and ease of maintenance make it a favorite of coach operators and private users alike. This coach is built to last.
Check out these super features:
Body: 45 ft. long x 102" wide
Stainless steel body construction
Acres of storage space! Three full width bays (2 for storage, 1 holds propane and water system)
Plus an AC bay, Spare tire bay, Battery Bay, Small bay under driver, and easy access engine bay.
Tinted, insulated glass windows
Air powered door with air release and key lock. NEW air piston
Wheelchair door in kitchen (wheelchair lift has been removed)
3 Emergency and vent hatches in the roof
Dual headlights and side flood lights make night driving a breeze.
Engine: The proven Detroit Series 60, 425 hp with turbo, intercooler, and Jake Brake make powering up hills effortless and descending steep grades worry free. (Recent Top End service)
Mileage: the odometer says 144,033 but most likely is not accurate.
NEW radiators, fan, fan clutches, hoses, stainless clamps and all engine and accessory belts
NEW muffler and tail pipe
Both the engine and transmission have computer diagnostic links.
The clear Fuel Pro fuel filter shows you when to change filters. No need to crawl under the bus, no drips!
Transmission: The Allison 755CR 6 speed automatic was complete rebuild by Allison.
NEW drive shaft U-joint
A self steering Tag axle with lock option adds life to your tires and tightens the steering radius. NEW tag axle anti sway shock absorber and tie rod assembly
Air suspension with raise and lower option. NEW accessory air tank, rear leveling tank and rear leveling valves
Power Steering with NEW reservoir and filters, and new tie rod ends on front and tag axles
Tires are very good all around. (Michelins on steer and Goodyears on drives) Stainless steel wheel covers.
NEW shock absorbers, slack adjusters, and brake pads, drums and wheel seals
NEW air brake diaphragms all around.
180 gallon fuel tank.
OTR HVAC: 3 zones with a digital temperature control keep all the passengers and driver cool in summer and warm as toast in winter. (Zone 1: Main coach, zone 2: driver's area, and zone 3: aircraft style parcel rack blowers.) NEW AC compressor shaft seals and clutch, heater discharge valve, line dryer and two main high pressure stainless steel hoses.
Electric: NEW, rebuilt alternator, 2 large bus batteries with a Vanner Equilizer and Mains switch.
Every part of this coach is built with integrity in Pembina MN, USA and Windsor Canada.
Here's what you get inside the coach:
Interior: The spacious interior is divided as follows: The front room houses the driver, 3 bunks and 4 coach seats.
The main room is a flexible design that has comfy bench seating along both sides of coach that folds up into bunks within minutes. There are two bathrooms with toilets and showers. The kitchen is in the rear of the coach.
Features: Large front windows for those breathtaking views of the Rockies with separate shades for the driver and passengers to keep the sunshine tamed. Easily adjustable air suspension driver's seat. The steering wheel is fully adjustable for angle and position. Enclosed parcel rack storage is strategically located above each seat. Air craft style HVAC vents and audio speakers are within easy reach above each seat.
Kitchen: The commercial style kitchen includes stainless steel counters, sinks and shelves, a water filter, a genuine stainless steel six burner Vulcan stove with a large oven, and 1" thick rubber non-slip flooring.
The Water system provides 100% of your water needs: The #3 bay houses 3 mammoth heavy duty poly tanks for 200 gallons of fresh water, 200 gallons of grey water and 35 gallons of black water. A third tank in the engine bay holds kitchen grey water. A 12 volt pump sends the fresh water into a high capacity pressure tank for distribution to the kitchen, bathrooms and sinks. Hot water is supplied from a heat exchanger in the engine bay. Standard RV hoses and valves drain the waste tanks. An electric gauge monitors the tank levels. Note: the whole system is easily removable for access to service other coach systems.
Propane is housed in the #3 bay connected to a standard switch-over regulator.
Extras: A complete set of parts and service manuals takes the guesswork out of maintenance.
Some straight talk about other stuff: The coach does not have a separate 120 volt generator or a 120 volt AC system. The exterior paint needs a good buffing and polishing. We fill the HVAC with Freon once a year due to a slow leak.
Reason for selling: Our congregation donated a 2005 MCI J-4500 to the Youth Ministry. We do not need two busses at this time.
Serviced by the best: Because of the responsibility of carrying youthful passengers around the USA and Canada, we professionally service the coach at MCI and Freightliner, with local mechanics taking care of small items.
Don't miss this chance to share life's most treasured moments in a preeminent coach.
Price $50,000 USD
Contact: Douglas Glick at 386-418-1251 or dougyes @hotmail.com
Photos of this coach can be viewed at: photobucket.com/ramaphoto or
The bus is housed near Gainesville, Florida. Call us today and come take it for a test drive.

It's common to find soundbars for around this price - soundbar/subwoofer combos, less so. Today this Vizio soundbar and subwoofer bundle is cheapest ever by over $100. Very well-reviewed at Amazon.
Need better sound from your TV? This Vizio has excellent reviews from hundreds of owners, and today it's cheapest ever and nearly $100 cheaper at 1Sale than you'll find at Amazon and elsewhere.
Very solid deal on this Vizio soundbar with sub - the cheapest we've ever seen it by $6, and $99 off the current next best price at Amazon. Fantastic reviews.
Okay, so this isn't strictly a soundbar / sub solution. It comes with two rear speakers. Cnet's review says because of those two speakers, it produces "unparalleled home theater sonics from a sound bar" - which is sorta funny to me, considering adding speakers makes it distinctly less soundbar-ish. But you do just connect the rears to a wireless subwoofer, so wire clutter is still at a minimum. We've seen this for $5 cheaper (free shipping), but for the reviews, this is a great price for the "soundbar".

In an interview with Ebony Magazine, Jada Pinkett Smith says she really doesn't care about rumors that float around regarding her fam.
"You want people to talk about you, because once they stop talking about you, that's when you're really in trouble!"
True, but does she draw the line when it comes to her sexuality?
"I'm happy to have people talk about all the craziness they want to talk about, whether it's things like every year we're getting divorced, or we're an open family or Will's gay, or I'm gay," Jada 'fesses.
Well that's a...refreshing take on it all. Maybe she doesn't need to worry about people thinking she's a lesby 'cause her hubby blabs around town about how good their sex life is.
Either way, it's become quite interesting to see how stars deal with the gay talk. Hugh Jackman has been the subject of all that for quite sometime, and he also kinda responded to it recently in an interview with Parade.
"I'd be happy to go and deny it, because I'm not. But by denying it, I'm saying there is something shameful about it, and there isn't anything shameful. The questions about sexuality I find more here in America than anywhere else, because it's a big hang-up and defines what people think about themselves and others. It's not a big issue in Australia."
Hugh didn't miss a beat tho to throw that "because I'm not" in there; still, it's a pretty well-thought-out answer.
What do you all find more convincing? A straight-up denial or when stars play with and sometimes flame the chitchat? Do let us know bi all...I mean, by all means.

A Pakistani teenager shot in the head by the Taliban was awarded a peace prize in Tipperary for her courage and determination on Tuesday.
Pakistani student Malala Yousafzai, who is also nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, became the latest recipient of the Tipperary International Peace Award at a ceremony in at Ballykisteen House.
The 16-year-old activist was targeted by the Taliban last October after she campaigned for girls to attend school without fear. Since age 11 the schoolgirl had been writing an anonymous blog for the BBC about the struggle faced by girls trying to receive an education under the Taliban.
When her identity was revealed the Taliban militia boarded her school bus and shot her at point blank range in the head.
The bullet hit her just above her left eye and grazed the edge of her brain. She was airlifted to Britain and treated at Birmingham's Queen Elizabeth Hospital, where doctors fitted a titanium plate and cochlear implant. Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari visited her in hospital.
Tipperary Peace Convention spokesman Martin Quinn said he was delighted the teenager had agreed to accept the award in person in Co Tipperary.
"We are really looking forward to receiving her and presenting her with this well-deserved accolade," he said.
"Malala now joins the illustrious list of past recipients of the peace prize, which includes former prime minister of Pakistan, the late Benazir Bhutto."
The Tipperary Peace Prize was established in the early 1980s for an individual who has made a special contribution to the cause of peace.
Last year's recipients were former president of Ireland Professor Mary McAleese and her husband Senator Martin McAleese.

Google Glass gets an earbud, here's how it looks
Now, we learn that it will come with an optional mono earbud that will be connected to Glass with a cable. The otherwise clean and modern design of Glass is inevitably spoiled a bit as this looks clunky and weird, but it's an optional accessory and you can choose whether you want to use it or just use Glass as before. The new earbud comes in addition to the bone-vibrating speaker built inside Glass.
Earlier, Google announced that it will be making Glass compatible with certain prescription glasses and sunglasses models. That's great news for people that wear prescription glasses on a daily basis, and would be able to augment their experience with Glass.
The company also expands its Explorer program allowing each Explorer to invite three more people to get access to the $1500 Glass.

Doesn't look weird IMO. Having the speaker in-ear is also better for people like me who have a slight hearing impairment.
8. ayephoner (Posts: 837; Member since: 09 Jun 2009)
come on. it looks incredibly weird. some people might like it, but that doesn't make it less weird.
i sure hope the warby parker designs look more stylish and/or more normal.

Clunky and weird? That's a personal opinion. I think it looks pretty cool and futuristic.

This would look better if it were more like a behind-the-ear hearing aid, with the wire coming from the back and over the top of the ear.

The challenges in a wireless world
The challenge when rolling out a new system or technology is often not with the hardware and software itself. It's with the users. Managing a responsible and mature workforce when implementing a technology such as wireless is key. A legacy wireless user in the field or in a warehouse is not the challenge. It's the technically savvy user who gains access to the network and rides roughshod, paying no mind to guidelines and security policies, who poses the biggest threat. This is where WLAN management is essential.
