Not to be confused with nearby Paramount Theaters, like the ones in Asbury Park, Long Island or Westchester (or less nearby ones like the one in Austin), Brooklyn's Paramount Theatre in Flatbush will begin hosting live entertainment for the first time in over 50 years. (Also not to be confused with another re-opened Flatbush venue, Loew's Kings Theatre.) A press release reads:
Barclays Center affiliate Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment has formed an alliance with LIU Brooklyn in which it will begin bringing entertainment to the university's historic Brooklyn Paramount Theatre.Stay tuned for more info and an initial schedule of events.
With the focus on booking emerging talent, Brooklyn Sports & Entertainment will program a variety of events, including music, comedy, and boxing.
The programming will return the LIU Brooklyn Paramount Theatre to its original roots as an active entertainment venue for the first time in more than half a century.
Originally built in 1928 as a movie palace, the LIU Brooklyn Paramount Theatre later hosted renowned Rock & Roll and jazz shows featuring artists such as Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra.
Currently used as a multi-purpose space, the LIU Brooklyn Paramount Theatre still has much of its original luster and can accommodate capacities of up to 1,500.
The partnership will create unique part-time job opportunities for LIU students, giving them a chance to gain valuable experience by working in various roles at the LIU Brooklyn ParamountTheatre.
Next month, Barclays Center and Brooklyn will host All-Star 2015 events, which will include LIU Brooklyn Paramount Theatre serving as a fan hub with the debut of the NBA House Presented by BBVA Compass. LIU Brooklyn Paramount Theatre will provide an interactive basketball experience on its full-size court and will include appearances from NBA legends.
As discussed, Cursive have a tour coming up in support of the reissue of The Ugly Organ, which will pull heavily from that album's era. The tour already includes NYC shows on March 10 & 11 at Bowery Ballroom (night 1 sold out, night 2 still on sale), plus nearby Long Island and Absury Park shows, and they've now added a smaller NYC show happening March 12 at Saint Vitus. Tickets for the new date go on sale at noon on Friday (1/30).
The whole tour will be with a cellist, and it's been revealed that in NYC it will be Gretta Cohn, who played all the cello on The Ugly Organ. Beach Slang (who put out a new song today) and John Congleton and the Nighty Nite open both Bowery Ballroom shows, but no opener has been announced for Saint Vitus yet.
Updated dates are listed below...

Viet Cong @ Union Pool, 1/28/2014
After having flights canceled twice (due to Winter Storm Juno), Canadian band Viet Cong made it into NYC just in time for their first of two sold-out record release shows, which happened at Union Pool Wednesday night (1/28). I had seen them twice last year -- at one of our SXSW parties and at 4 Knots -- but this was the first time where I had actually gotten to listen to a lot of their music beforehand. Which certainly helps, given their sometimes gnarled, labrynthine sound.
While there are definite echoes of Gang of Four, Wire, Neu!, Joy Division and other postpunk/kraut influences, Viet Cong don't really sound like any of them. It's a weird, complex blend of those things, put through a kaleidoscopic lens filter. It makes a lot more sense watching them live, where you can see that something you thought was just one guitar part is actually two separate ones, or "oh that's a keyboard." Add to that drummer Mike Wallace (who's mom flew in from Calgary just for these NYC shows) rarely plays a straight 4/4 beat. Some of the best parts of their live show, however, happen when they burrow into a groove or bring a Fall-like level of repetition, like the pounding middle of "Death" which closes their new album (and last night's set). A really great show.
Both openers at Union Pool were terrific: Honey, whose brand of rock seems born straight from Detroit, 1970; and the arty/skronky PC Worship (Viet Cong frontman/bassist Matt Flegel was up front for their whole set). Viet Cong play again tonight (1/29) at Mercury Lounge with What Moon Things, which is also sold out. Hopefully they'll be back sooner than later. More pictures of last night's show, below...

Late last year, Azar Swan released their second album, And Blow Us a Kiss, which adds some serious Kate Bush vibes to the duo's electro-goth-tribal MO. You can stream the whole album below.
The vinyl version of And Blow Us a Kiss just came out and they're throwing a release party tonight (1/29) at Over the Eight in Williamsburg. There will be a stripped-down performance, featuring Dee Dee from Dum Dum Girls and Nothing Changes' Nikki Sneakers, and there will also be readings by Brandon Welchez, Anna C Cabanna, Kristen Korvette, Jameson Fitzpatrick, Chaz Rowaldo and Zachary Lipez. Plus, Crocodiles and others on DJ duty. It starts at 10 PM and is free.

Chilean psych-rock band Föllakzoid will release III (yes, their third album) via Sacred Bones on March 31. Its four long tracks follow dark, minimal lines, locked grooves and spaced-out repetition. For the new album they also enlisted the help of German synth specialist Uwe Schmidt (who releases music as Atom™ and Señor Coconut) to help expand their universe. Zone out to the 12-minute opening track "Electric" below.
UPDATE: We originally posted that Föllakzoid would be at Austin Psych Fest Levitation this year, which is apparently unconfirmed. We hope it happens!

Courtney Barnett has steadily been rising off the strength of her two EPs, one of which came out in 2012, followed by the second in 2013, followed by a packaged release of them together that same year, and followed once more by a US release in 2014. Now she's finally ready to put out a proper full length, Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit, which is due out March 24 via Mom + Pop. She just put out the clown-centric video for its rockin' first single "Pedestrian At Best," and it's only making this album seem more exciting. Check it out, with the artwork and tracklist, below.
She'll be at SXSW and Bonnaroo this year. Her full tour schedule is also below.

After filming a pilot with Comedy Central that didn't get picked up, public access / internet sensation The Chris Gethard Show has been picked up by new cable network Fusion who have ordered a 10-episode run that will air starting in April. Fusion looks to keep the show's anarchic spirit intact. Gethard says "We're not leaving public access, we're taking it with us." And from a feature in The Atlantic:
The fact that viewers can call in, for one, is critical to the show's energy, which is difficult to pull off on a major network since even late night is filmed live-to-tape. Gethard says Fusion seemed much more willing to embrace the show's online side, live-streaming the tapings and accepting live calls, then editing the show down to something it can broadcast. "Really, we can take our time to have the show basically be live and also round it out to a show we're proud of," he says. "They're giving us an opportunity to have the best of both worlds in a way that's truly progressive. They suggested it."Chris, who's on Broad City too, wrote this on the show's website:
When Next You See Us We Will Be Standing Atop the Rubble Of The Entertainment Industry, Victorious Conquerers In A Strange Land That's Never Welcomed Us. We Are The Outsiders. We Are The Renegades. We Are The Surrogates For The Silent Masses Who Are Not Willing To Be Treated As A Number, Who Are Smart Enough To Know That Their Value Is Rooted In More Than What Demographic Some White Male In A Suit Categorizes Them In. In April We Take To New Airwaves To Shout Furiously On Behalf Of The Sad, Creative, Sexually Confused, Generally Forgotten Kids Who Have Long Found It Unpleasant To Shout For Themselves. We Are A Voice For The Voiceless. We Take To The Grid So That We May Speak On Behalf Of Those Who Opt To Live Off Of It. We Are The Nervous System, And Our Viewers Are The Heart And The Brain. We Aim To Obey The Commands Of The Meekest Voices Amongst The Din. We Are Selling Out, But We Will Never Back Down. We Thank The Powers That Be For Our Seat At The Table But We Refuse To Ever Be Cool And We Insist On Making A Mess. Some People Get Invited In The Front Door. Some People Sneak Through The Back Door. We Are Sleeping In A Tent In The Vacant Lot Next Door And Throwing Eggs At The Metaphorical House. This Is Not Goodbye, It's Only See Ya Later. This Is Not The End, It Is The Beginning. MNN Was Where The Forces Gathered, And Now The Army Marches. And You, The Viewers Who Have Supported Us, Are The Generals In That Army, The Admirals On The Ships, You Tell Us When It's Time To Push The Button And Go Nuclear On The Whole Venture. The Mainstream Entertainment Industry Murdered Andy Kaufman And It Is The Duty Of This Show To Get Revenge On His Behalf.One drawback, for fans in Gethard's NYC area (where the show currently films), is Fusion isn't carried by Time Warner Cable. But you will be able to watch it live online, and Fusion can, however, be seen on Verizon FIOS, who by the way recently picked up Diddy's music channel Revolt TV a year into its existence.
Last night (1/28) was the final episode of The Chris Gethard Show to air on NYC public TV channel Manhattan Neighborhood Network and featured a live performance by The Weaks. That episode hasn't shown up archived on line yet, but you can watch last week's episode, featuring Jersey band Microwave Death, below...

We've already posted the Modern Baseball, Hurry and The Weaks tracks from the upcoming United Cerebral Palsy-benefitting six-way split on Lame-O Records, Strength In Weakness, and today we get another contribution: Beach Slang. "Too Late To Die Young" is the ninth song and second acoustic song that the band has released in their short-but-already great career so far, and despite its stripped-down sound, it's no less an anthem than the full-band jams. Check it out, via Noisey, below.
As mentioned, they're opening Cursive's Ugly Organ-era tour, including the NYC shows on March 10 (sold out) and March 11 at Bowery Ballroom (tickets), which are both also with John Congleton and The Nighty Nite. After that, they'll tour Europe, play Belgium's Groezrock Fest and Montreal's Pouzza Fest with the still-reunited Knapsack. And finally it's back to the NYC-area for Skate & Surf Fest on May 16 & 17 with The Gaslight Anthem, American Nightmare, Pianos Become the Teeth, Small Brown Bike and many more (tickets).
Updated dates are listed, with the new song, below...

Stealing Sheep's 2012 debut, Into the Diamond Sun, was one of that year's most underrated albums, mixing faery folk, krautrock and exotica into a distinctive sound of their own. If you haven't heard it, you can stream it via Rdio below. The Liverpool trio will release their second album, Not Real, on April 14 via Heavenly. The new album is a little more synthesizer heavy and less rooted in the past, but Stealing Sheep's quirky style (and those harmonies) are still vibrantly on display. While no music has been released from the album yet, they have made a very trippy trailer for the album and you can watch that, and check out the album tracklist, below.

WASHINGTON -- Several people were injured and there are reports of fatalities in a shooting at the Washington Navy Yard Sept. 16. An active shooter was reported inside the Naval Sea Systems Command Headquarters building (Bldg. 197) on the Washington Navy Yard at 8:20 a.m. (Eastern Time). Emergency personnel remain on scene and a "shelter in place" order has been issued for Navy Yard personnel. The Naval Sea Systems Command's headquarters is the work place for about 3,000 people.

"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."- St. John Paul II

Va. deputy hit by friendly fire

The Virginian-Pilot
NORFOLK, Va. — A sheriff's deputy shot another deputy in the leg Monday morning as the two checked a house that was about to be boarded up, police said.
Police said the shooting appeared accidental, but said the incident was still being investigated. Sheriff Bill Watson said Monday afternoon that the deputy was doing fine. He was still being treated at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital, he said.

BY THE TIME THE ECONOMY HAD WRUNG OUT the excesses of the Internet bubble, Silicon Valley-or more precisely, California's Santa Clara County-had lost 200,000 jobs, or more than 20% of its total job base. At one point in 2002, its unemployment rate hit 8.4%. This time, I fear, could be even worse.
Certainly, the trend is heading in the wrong direction. California's unemployment rate hit 8.2% in October, up from 7.7% in September, reaching the highest level since September 1994. Keep in mind that this time it isn't just the tech industry that's hurting. The state's construction industry has lost 69,500 jobs this year.

Palm (PALM) is cutting staff but won't say how many; rumors are of a 10%-20% reduction. Now in Chapter 11, electronics retailer Circuit City (CC) has already cut 20% of its workers, and more could be on the way out. Jobs are disappearing at law firms and other service providers to the tech industry, and start-ups are slashing employment in the face of a nearly frozen venture-capital environment.
There were even rumors that Apple (AAPL) was cutting back hours for some employees of its retail stores (the company wouldn't comment on the reports). As it happens, I visited an Apple store in Palo Alto recently, and the place was bustling; I can't imagine they need to shrink the workforce in that store. But if even Apple is considered a potential source of lost jobs, it's more evidence that almost no one in the Valley feels entirely secure. That's not good for retailers. It's not good for restaurants. It's not good for real-estate prices. It's not good for anyone.
OFTEN ON MY TECH TRADER DAILY BLOG, reader comments accuse sell-side analysts of talking their firms' books. I doubt the analysts I quote are trying to manipulate the market to their firms' advantage, but it's easy to see the potential conflicts when a securities firm also runs money.
To guard against such abuses, securities firms erect proverbial Chinese walls, which prevent portfolio managers from using their colleagues on the sell side to do their bidding. It's something that always needs policing, but if you want a case study on how to do it the right way, consider the tale of UBS ubs 0.9036144578313253% UBS Group AG U.S.: NYSE USD16.75 0.15 0.9036144578313253% /Date(1422559913873-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 931466 P/E Ratio 17.962365591397848 Market Cap 56426011764.3776 Dividend Yield N/A Rev. per Employee 594170 More quote details and news » (UBS) and VMware VMW 0.17985611510791366% VMware Inc.

Earlier this month, UBS software analyst Heather Bellini cut her rating on VMware to Sell from Neutral, chopping her target price on the stock to $15 from $27. VMware, to refresh your memory, provides "server virtualization" software, technology that allows IT departments to make more efficient use of their hardware. A spinoff from EMC emc -1.5789473684210527% EMC Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD26.18 -0.42 -1.5789473684210527% /Date(1422559927833-0600)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 23389327 P/E Ratio 20.86325195468326 Market Cap 54128581708.8734 Dividend Yield 1.7590822179732313% Rev. per Employee 376510 More quote details and news » (EMC), the stock has been on a wild ride; VMware came public at $29 in August 2007, at one point traded north of $100, and is now $10 or so below the IPO price.
Bellini wrote in a research note that the Street consensus estimates for VMware's software-license growth for both Q4 and all of 2009 are too high. For next year, she sees profits of 57 cents a share; the consensus forecast is $1.13. For the fourth quarter, she sees 15 cents, way below the Street's 26 cents. Her takeaway: "We expect Street numbers to come down considerably the next few months, and as such we would be reducing positions in the stock."
What makes that fascinating is that as of Oct. 31, the single largest holder of VMW shares other than majority owner EMC is UBS Global Asset Management, which held 16.4 million shares; that position, which represents 30.1% of the company's common shares, was up from 10.1 million shares earlier in the month, according to filings with the SEC. (EMC owns all of the Class B shares, which gives it 98% voting control.) Wherever UBS Global gets advice, it clearly is not listening to Heather Bellini.
Turning Around: The Nasdaq Composite has lost 35% over the past three months, but last week's 10.9% bounce snapped its three-week losing streak.
THIS HAS BEEN A ROUGH YEAR for solar stocks, which have been hurt by tight credit, a stronger dollar, falling prices and slowing demand. But many investors still see huge promise in the sector. Among other things, the bulls contend the Obama administration will invest heavily in alternative energy. Piper Jaffray analyst Jesse Pichel last week noted speculation that Obama could push for revisions to the recently extended tax-credit program for solar investment; he says possible changes could include replacing tax credits with cash refunds, increasing the tax-credit percentage for two years, providing financing for solar installations and pushing for solar panels on federal buildings. (Not a new idea: Jimmy Carter installed solar panels on the White House; Ronald Reagan ripped them down.)
However, the U.S. remains a relatively small factor in the global solar market. More than 75% of the current market is in Europe, where demand is crumbling as new projects find difficulty getting financing. And it seems unlikely U.S. demand in 2009, no matter how hard the new president tries to push for solar, can fully overcome weaker European demand. For one thing, Spain, which has been the world's second-biggest solar market after Germany, has set a 500-megawatt cap on its solar-subsidiary program for next year; the total this year will be substantially higher.
Gordon Johnson, analyst with Hapoalim Securities, asserted in a research note last week that 2008 solar installations in Spain will reach 2.1 gigawatts, nearly twice his previous estimate and much higher than others expect. That would make Spain a larger market than Germany this year. While that sounds bullish, it's not. If he's right, the fall-off in Spain next year will be far worse than most analysts are expecting. Johnson thinks there is no way the world can absorb the 1.6 GW drop he sees coming in Spain. Johnson forecasts that, as a result, growth in global solar installations will drop from 61% this year to a minus 2.5% next year. His conclusion: The entire solar food chain will be hurt by "the pending massive decline" in the world's largest solar market.

Our Gadget of the Week: Baby It's Hot Out Here
SunGlo A244; Price: $1,239. Stats: About 7.75 feet high; weighs close to 75 lbs., mainly because of the weighted base. Features: Electric starter and safety shutoff. Staialess-steel frame available in four colors. Burns for six hours on a standard propane tank. Website: infradyne.com Barron's graphics
EVENING TEMPERATURES HAVE FALLEN INTO THE 30S in central New Jersey, cold enough to discourage all but the squirrels -- and my wife and me -- from sitting outside after sunset.
We're sipping our pre-dinner cocktails and watching the last of the leaves fall as we sit under a SunGlo patio heater -- a lamppost-like device powered by bottled propane, with an "umbrella hat" that reflects heat. We're warm as toast, and practically ready for snow.
Patio heaters come in all shapes and sizes, and are powered by a variety of fuels. But most hardware-store models rust within a year or two, and many don't heat especially well. What makes the SunGlo different -- and far more expensive -- are its commercial construction and life expectancy, measured in decades.
The heater arrived in parts, but was easy to assemble in just 20 minutes, with the aid of nothing fancier than a screwdriver and a wrench. Add a standard propane tank, depress the button on the pole that lights the pilot, wait a few seconds and turn on the heat.
The 40,000 BTU model I've been testing generates a blast of heat within a six-foot radius, and generates at least some warmth up to 12 feet away. Other models are available, including ceiling-mounted heaters and units powered by natural gas.
The SunGlo brand is owned by Infrared Dynamics, a private company based in Yorba Linda, Calif.

So, BlackBerry fans... What tablet do you use?
After IOS7 slaughtered my iPad, I got a Samsung Galaxy Note Pro.
It has a lot of very cool features, but honestly it is somewhat buggy (crazy lag on that thing) and it was really best when paired with my Note 3 phone, which of course the Kitkat update promptly destroyed.
So I have my Q10 which I love.
I have my Note Pro which I like, but knowing Android, I know full well that their next update, which will be forced on me like it was with the Note 3, will cripple my tablet.
And the Playbook has been discontinued.
So when I have to bury my Note Pro, I'm not sure what to get.
I need something fast, with a lot of memory (64 GB), decent battery life, LTE connected, reliable.
Which tablet do you have, do you like it, and why? What do you use it for? -
I have an Apple ipad mini. Don't use it for much but reading and surfing.

Apple, really? *cries*
I've been trying to get away from Apple since the IOS7 snafu. I still have an Itouch for the apps that I need that aren't on BB but iPad seriously let me down when I was in school, which is why I switched.
*sigh* - 06-29-2014, 05:21 PM #12
I'm not sure which iPad you refer to but just wanted to let you know that I have the iPad 3 and was seriously considering an upgrade when ios7 came out, thought it couldn't handle it but then the further updates made it much much better in terms of lag. Battery life feels maybe it's getting a bit older now but still good enough, just wish it charged a bit faster

Still got 2 playbooks. don't use them mutch. For the kids to play games and for note taking on customer visits.
Thanked by:Heath Coggan (07-10-2014)
After my PlayBook became too slow, I got an Asus VivoTab, an 8" Windows tablet with pen support. It runs full Windows 8.1 and has an SD card slot, so memory is not an issue. I use it primarily for work; usually with my Q10's mobile hotspot (faster than any wifi, even at home!). The pen is awesome - I can receive a pdf document to sign, so instead of printing it out, signing, scanning it in and sending it, I just display it on the screen and sign it with the pen. It's a hard tip pen, so feels just like a real one.
Other than that - it's Windows, like it or don't. Poor app selection, but what you get is a full computer in an 8" package. Facebook and newspaper apps work well. - 06-29-2014, 06:00 PM #17I use what I want.
Buying a Nexus 7 soon. the 10" tabs are too big for me and iPad is just outta my price range.

Tried a bunch of tablets since the Playbook and not necessarily happy with any of them. Finally settled for the Galaxy Note Pro 8.4 for lack of anything better. Still rely mostly on my Z30 for surfing a lot of sites. Galaxy + Chrome browser lags a fair bit.
I made the switch to the samsung galaxy tab pro 8.4 as my wife told me that I needed something for Father's Day (was still using my playbook faithfully for bridge function and excel sheets).
After the first evening I've fallen in love with the limit Less options that I can do with it. There's a few grips with the OS, ie I want gesture navigation and not back buttons, but what can you do?
I find myself using this more than my z10 for social stuff, media and general web browsing.
It's also become a big power house for all my work when I'm nowhere near a computer for work.

Recent Deer Valley reviews
"We've stayed at many VRBO homes over the last 10 years or so in different parts of the country, and I have to say this one was absolutely one of the best! The owners thought of everything renters need for a super comfortable, worry-free stay. It was close to everything but private as well. My husband and I and our two teenage daughters had such a great time - we will be staying here again!"
"We had a wonderful stay in this condo. The location was perfect and the condo was comfortable and beautiful! I left my Audi key in the unit and did not realize it. The owner contacted me and mailed me the key which saved me $500 which I would have paid to have a replacement made! We were so thankful!!"
"Absolutely great home that's well maintained and is darned near ski-in / ski-out as access to ski run is just across street. Our group has rented this house the last 4 years and is going back for a 5th, so that tells the story about our liking the place. On-line pictures well represent the excellent condition and amenities of this exceptionally nice home in Deer Valley. Mgmt company and owners have been very accommodating / helpful too."

Fast Growing Renewables vs Slow Economic Growth
July 1, 2014 11:09 AMOnly the most starry-eyed optimist would have predicted that renewables could thrive, let alone grow, during a time of slow economic growth. While it's true that in regions like Europe, wind and solar power were helped out of the gate by government incentives and subsidies, the falling costs of solar and especially the rising cost of natural gas and other forms of power generation have now made renewables competitive. Total electricity generation in Europe has declined steadily since the highs of 2007, from 3392 TWh to last year's 3259 TWh. But during that time combined wind+solar have taken enormous market share, from a 3.19% share in 2007 (108 TWh) to a 9.78% share (319 TWh) last year. | see: Contribution of Solar+Wind Consumption (yellow) in Total EU Electricity Generation - TWh 2000-2013.
Increasingly, power inputs like coal remain cheap to source, however, the infrastructure required to burn sources such as coal is more costly than ever. Wind and solar are also exerting downward pressure on EU power rates. Lower prices "leave a trail of blood in our balance sheet," Bernhard Guenther, chief financial officer at Germany's RWE said recently.Because oil is so sparingly used in the EU, the great game in this region has fully moved to the powergrid and the impossible has already come into view: lower than expected electricity rates are now emerging as marginal contributions from wind and solar have already tipped this market into slight oversupply. It may not be clear just yet, but Europe's first mover status as the region to embrace renewables early will grant the region competitive advantages as energy transition completes.
