Marius Dufresne and Jules Renard's lavish beaux-arts style building in Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, was supposed to spur the development of the area.

How Jazz Trumpeter Clark Terry Kept On
My first introduction to the musical genius of Clark Terry happened back in 1964 during a surfing trip to Oahu. I was 16 at the time. I had purchased the Oscar Peterson Trio + One LP at a record shop in the Ala Moana shopping center. The album featured jazz trumpeter Clark Terry doing a funny song called, "Mumbles," which sounded exactly like the title implies: Terry mumbling—rather, scat singing …

Few musicians are fortunate enough to have patrons. Tchaikovsky had one, a female benefactor whom he never met.

Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, and Barry Harris had Nica von Koenigswarter, a scion of the powerful Rothschild …

Aldo Ciccolini and Erik Satie
Back in the 1960s, composer Erik Satie's limpid, odd, but wonderful solo piano music became known largely through the recordings of the late Aldo Ciccolini, who very recently passed away at the age of 89 in France, where he had lived for years.
Born in Naples in 1925, Ciccolini exhibited a natural gift for piano early on and was admitted to conservatory as a young boy. After …

This week, Rhythm Planet reprises the 100th birthday tribute I did back in 1994 for one of the most extraordinary men I've ever met: Nicolas Slonimsky, the Russian composer, conductor, musicologist, and lexicographer. Born in 1894 in czarist St. Petersburg to a family of intellectuals, he was singled out as a boy "genius," who would, indeed, be destined for greatness.
Slonimsky learned music theory, composition, and …

Man caught furiously masturbating in a supermarket was genuinely surprised to be seen
An Oklahoma man who was arrested for masturbating in the middle of a supermarket said he was was genuinely surprised people had seen him.
Police received a call at around 12:45pm on Saturday from two Walmart customers who had seen Derek Bennett nonchalantly strolling around the store with his penis out, masturbating.
Though shocked shoppers told security, the 26-year-old managed to finish up and leave the store before the police arrived.
Officers chased Bennett in their patrol car and pulled him over.
According to KRMG TV, the man immediately admitted to exposing himself when in custody, but was genuinely surprised that he had been spotted.
He faces multiple counts of indecent exposure.
The real question of course is why Walmart?
Perhaps because it was a Walmart 'Tire and Lube Express' (I'm not even joking – that's what it's called).
This incident comes just a fortnight after a man was sentenced for playing with himself in libraries while clutching a cucumber.
Yes, it is possible to love cucumber too much lol
Serial cucumber masturbator sentenced after being recognised in library
A judge has sentenced a man who was seen masturbating in a public library while holding a cucumber – and it wasn't for the first time.
Fredrick Tennyson Davis, 49, was at the Agincourt Library in Toronto, Canada, on 31 May when he was spotted by staff.
Library employees recognised the man from the last time he had been caught in flagrante delicto with a salad item after he was seen carrying out the same lewd act in the library back in April.
Constable David Hopkinson of the Toronto Police Service revealed that subtlety was not Mr Davis' strong suit.
'On April 7, he sits down and a 26-year-old woman sits next to him and he opens up his laptop,'
The man then started masturbating with one hand while clutching a cucumber with the other, Hopkinson said.
Mr Davis was charged with an indecent act and two counts of failure to comply with probation. York Regional Police Constable Andy Pattenden revealed that Mr Davis was charged with a similar act back in June 2012 at a different library.
It isn't known whether Mr Davis recycles the cucumbers or uses a fresh one each time.
The judge handed down a suspended sentence and 12 months probation to the man.
When pressed as to whether Mr Davis had posed a threat to library staff, Constable Hopkinson remarked:
'I don't think he had any free hands to make a threat.'

Jay Z and Beyonce 'On the Run' Concert Special to Air on HBO
Fans who will be missing Jay Z and Beyonce's tour this summer will be pleased to know that HBO will be broadcasting an 'On the Run' concert special this fall.
Fans who will be missing Jay Z and Beyonce's tour this summer will be pleased to know that HBO will be broadcasting an 'On the Run' concert special this fall.
Jay Z and Beyonce's performance of 'Partition' at the 2014 BET Awards was almost too hot for TV!
If you didn't get enough of Destiny's Child during their brief 2013 Super Bowl reunion, you'll want to check out Michelle Williams' new music video 'Say Yes.'
Which song should win: Ed's 'Sing' or Beyonce's 'Pretty Hurts'?
Actress Nina Millin had the genius idea to take lyrics to some of Beyonce's most popular songs and convert them into a performance of dramatically spoken word. Her videos will have you wondering, "Why didn't I think of that first?!"
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West officially tied the knot yesterday after a grand wedding weekend that started in France and ended in Italy. And while many prominent figures from entertainment and fashion attended the affair, there were two people noticeably missing from the ceremonies: Jay Z and Beyonce.
John Mayer surprised audiences on his Australian tour by performing an unexpected cover of Beyonce's love song 'XO.' The singer and his fans enjoyed the performance so much that he just released a studio recording on iTunes.
Destiny's Child has (kind of) reunited on Michelle Williams' new song 'Say Yes!' The uplifting tune, which takes lyrics from a traditional Nigerian gospel hymn, features Beyonce, Kelly Rowland and even Solange Knowles on the track.
'Saturday Night Live' didn't waste any time getting to the jokes about the Jay Z vs. Solange elevator fight incident, as the show opened with a fake family sketch starring 'SNL' cast members and a surprise guest star.
In the aftermath of the Jay Z/Solange Elevator fight (see it here) after the Met Gala last week, it was only right to parody the situation. And what better way to do so, then by re-writing Jigga's classic single 99 Problems and re-enacting that fateful elevator debacle. This is what (I think, at least) was actually going on in Hova's head during the brawl, although I think I got beat up worse.

"We don't get out as much as we used to. It's nice to know there's auto insurance that fits our lifestyle."
We ask for a photograph of your car's odometer (with your driver's license visible in the photograph) at the initial purchase, and each 6-month renewal. This lets us confirm your odometer reportings as well as verify that it's your car. The photos are uploaded from your computer directly to the site during the purchase process.
MileMeter reserves the right to request additional odometer photos at any time during the policy period.
No, we do not monitor your driving habits or your vehicles with vehicle-installed tracking devices, because it raises the cost of insurance, and it violates consumer privacy. Instead, by sending us a photo of your odometer, we make use of the tools you probably already have; you car's odometer, your driver's license, and your digital camera.
We'd love to expand to other states! Unfortunately, the insurance industry and the state authorities which regulate it don't make it easy. It took us several years to offer MileMeter insurance in Texas. We hope to expand into other state markets quickly, but we expect some obstacles. If you want to help in the meantime, encourage your friends in Texas to purchase a policy from us.
Our insurance financially rewards you for driving less. The incentive to drive less will (hopefully) result in fewer tailpipe emissions, fewer traffic injuries, and fewer parking lots. The potential economic, policy, and environmental benefits of mileage-based insurance have led to broad interest: in the United States, it has been championed by the National Organization for Women, studied by the U.S. Federal Highway Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency, and advocated by groups ranging from the National Motorists Association to environmental conservationists. Mileage-based insurance is unique as a product that is equitable, environmental, and responsible.
Please read this policy carefully because when you visit this site you are agreeing to the terms of this policy.
If you are currently an active-duty member of the U.S. Armed Forces stationed in Texas, we will accept your out-of-state driver's license with proof of military I.D. Just call us, and we will ask you to email or fax us a copy of your active military I.D. and driver license.
Congratulations on moving to Texas! State law gives you 30 days from the date of your residency change to get a new driver license from the Texas Department of Transportation. You need to have a Texas driver license before purchasing a MileMeter policy.
If you are a full-time student at a university or college in Texas, then you may purchase MileMeter insurance. Just e-mail us with an attachment of your current student ID and we can grant you an underwriting exception which will enable you to buy a MileMeter policy. You must be a current student of a Texas university or college to qualify for this exception.
In one-to-three minutes, you can quickly and easily get an auto insurance quote. The process is simple:

They are made of a laminated MDF which is man made. Thank you for shopping with us! Terri D.
The product title states walnut finish but there's another picture of white color shelves. Is the product only available in the dark brown (walnut) color? If not, how do you choose white color when ordering?
Hello memorias! We do apologize, we are not currently in stock with the white. Thanks for shopping with us! -Amanda P
Where can I find the set blue vases that are in the product photo?
Unfortunately nikkiharrer, we do not currently offer the blue vases. Please feel free to check back with us periodically for updates. Thanks for shopping with us.
What is the maximum weight load for each shelf?
Thank you for contacting us passport9471. The capacity of the shelf is: small 5lbs, medium 7 lbs, and the large 10lbs. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
Two questions: 1. Do these shelves come in black finish? 2. What is thickness of shelf material? I am hoping for at least 1 in. thickness. Thanks
Hi hapcam, unfortunately we do not have a black version of this item. We were able to verify with our support team the shelf thickness is 5/8 inches. Thanks for shopping with us.
I live in an apartment. I had bad luck with shelves purchased from Target, they were wobbly and slanted forward no matter what we tried. How sturdy are these on the wall?
Thank you for your interest. These shelves come very highly rated by customers so I would say they are very sturdy. Please feel free to contact us again with any further questions.
I am not allowed to drill into my walls at all. Most of my wall decor including a wall mount fireplace I purchased from Overstock is hung with wall safe hooks. Is that possible with this set too? Please let me know
The shipping weight of the three shelves is only 4 lbs., so wall-safe hooks should be fine.
How do you recommend hanging these shelves. It says not to use a drill but that makes it the easiest when dealing with an anchor however I have no idea what drill bit to use if I went that route. Any suggestions on how to go about hanging these shelves?
Please follow the instructions that come with the shelves.
How do these hang on the wall? I am not allowed to put any large screws in my wall, only small nails, and I'm wondering what these shelves use to hang.
The shelves include the necessary mounting hardware, although smaller hardware may be used. The load can be controlled by displaying only lightweight items.
The description says Walnut finish, yet the photos show more black/brown color. Please confirm the color.
The walnut finish is dark brown.
Does it come with hardware? Screws?
Yes. All the needed hardware is included to install your new shelves.

Review: 'Senna'
A high-octane bio of one of auto racing's greatest figures.
A high-octane bio of one of auto racing's greatest figures.
Continuing a flurry of Sundance activity Sunday, Fox Searchlight announced it has acquired worldwide rights to Gavin Wiesen's directorial debut "Homework."
In his latest stunt, helmer Kevin Smith pandered to a packed Sundance crowd following the preem of his pic "Red State," telling auds he was going to self-distribute his $4 million project.
Most festgoers know that the first Sunday is no "lazy Sunday," and this year's Sundance, with buyers bidding and agents fielding offers until the wee hours, proved no exception.
The Weinstein Co. has closed snapped up rights for "My Idiot Brother" here at Sundance for a reported $6 million to $7 million and a $15 million P&A commitment for a wide theatrical release.
Jacobs' slow-building portrait of a late bloomer makes this poetic pic an outsider even among outsider movies.
Blood is thicker than varnish remover in "Restoration," a handsome production of intriguing surfaces.
Doc is like a hipster's King Tut's tomb, and History Films' involvement assures cable exposure.
Wonks meet everyday Joes to explain the economic crisis in David Sington's intelligent "The Flaw."
The lifeblood drains early from "Vampire," the English-language debut of Japanese multihyphenate Iwai Shunji.

Ebola's exponential growth
By Gwynne Dyer - Here are two good things about the Ebola virus. It is unlikely to mutate into a version that can spread through the air, as some other viruses have done. And people who have been infected by Ebola cannot pass it on to others during the incubation period (between two and 21 days). Only when they develop detectable symptoms, notably fever, do they become infectious to others, and only by the transfer of bodily fluids.

angie3April 25, 2011
I purchased a Weeping Pussy Willow. I know that the root system will invade water pipes and septic systems, so those areas need to be avoided when choosing a planting location.
How big does the root system get? How far away from the house and underground electrical should it be planted?
brandon7 TN_zone(7)
Most of the roots will be in the top one to two feet of soil and will extend out to around three times the diameter of the canopy. Roots will not enter sealed pipes unless there is a break in the pipe. This used to be more of a problem back in the days when sewer pipes often leaked a little.
Since your picture didn't come through (guess you tried since this post is in the gallery), I can't tell what it might have had to do with the text of your post.

How Bad Is The Drought After That Latest Big Storm?
After four days of rainfall, the San Francisco Bay Area has seen SOME relief to some areas, while other regions remain in "EXTREME to EXCEPTIONAL Drought. Over a foot of rain accumulated in Venado (12 miles west of Healdsburg) and as a result, the coastal mountains are now considered in a "Severe Drought", not as dismal as the remaining Bay Area. In fact, many interior valleys received less than 1 inch of precipitation in the rain gauge and the Salinas Valley tallied less than 1/2 inch from the Friday through Monday rain event.

Attacks On U.S. Banks' Websites Seen As Work Of Iran
Sophisticated hacking attacks on U.S. banks in recent months have distinctive qualities that are leading investigators to believe another nation may be behind the assault. The likely suspect is Iran, which officials believe may be trying to even the score for American hacking of its nuclear program.
At least nine U.S. financial institutions have been hit since September; more attacks are expected. And part of what makes them suspicious is that they seem calculated not to steal account data or money, but instead to disrupt the banking system.
"There is no doubt within the U.S. government that Iran is behind these attacks," former Commerce and State Department official James A. Lewis tells The New York Times, which reported the story Wednesday. Lewis is a computer security expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
The distributed denial of service attacks, which seek to overload an online system's ability to respond to requests, targeted Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, U.S. Bancorp, PNC, Capital One, BB&T, HSBC, and Fifth Third Bank, the Times reports.
NPR's Tom Gjelten filed a Newscast report in which he explained more about the group behind the attacks:
"A group calling itself the al-Qassam cyber fighters has taken credit for the attacks, saying they're protesting the anti-Islam video posted on YouTube a few months ago. But the group could be just a front. In its latest posting, the group says: 'Rulers and officials of American banks must expect our massive attacks! From now on, none will be safe.'"
Tom will discuss the case on All Things Considered this afternoon. We'll update this post with more information as it comes in.

Trailer For 'Gone Girl' Raises All Kinds Of Questions.
The new one heading our way from David Fincher is titled 'Gone Girl' and it stars the polarizing Ben Affleck. Personally, I like the dude, I like his acting and most of his films but for some reason – he rubs a lot of folks the wrong way. Right or wrong it's just how it is and you know what would shut up the naysayers quicker than anything else? A kick ass movie that's what. … Continue reading

In hindsight, seeing what he did with ARGO it would have been a coup to have him behind the camera. We'll never know though as he has had to drop out of the gig because of not … Continue reading

Despite interest, Wizards pull back on Rudy Gay
Spurs-Wiz Highlights
When the Wizards faced the new-look Memphis Grizzlies for the first time, new acquisitions Tayshaun Prince, Ed Davis, and Austin Daye all made their Memphis debuts. While Davis and Daye only played a combined seven minutes, Prince made a splash in his debut, scoring 14 points on 7-of-11 shooting in 31 minutes in the Grizzlies' 85-73 win.
The centerpiece of the trade that brought the trio to Memphis was Baltimore-native Rudy Gay, who was traded to the Toronto Raptors. Throughout the season, Gay's name was constantly brought up in trade rumors, including with the Washington Wizards.
Just last month CSN Bay Area's NBA Insider Ric Bucher said the Wizards made an offer for Gay, and according to Bucher's league source the offer was a "good one".
When new owner Robert Pera recently purchased the Grizzlies, he it made abundantly clear that cutting costs would be essential, as a small market team like Memphis couldn't possibly afford to pay Gay, Marc Gasol, and Zach Randolph without facing financial penalties. First they traded Marreese Speights, Josh Selby, Wayne Ellington, and a protected first-round pick to Cleveland for backup big man Jon Leuer, a move that immediately got the team under the league's tax line for this season. The next move was trading Gay, the longest-tenured member of the Grizzlies.
Rudy Gay is a talented and athletic player, who at just 26 has shown he can score at the NBA level. But he comes with a very expensive contract, and for a team in the Wizards position, acquiring him (and his salary) would make it difficult to tinker with the roster going forward. This year Gay is making $16.4 million dollars, and next year that number goes up to $17.8 million.
So far this season Gay is averaging 17.2 points per game, but he's doing it on just 40 percent shooting while taking almost 16 shots a game. Factor in that he's not a particularly strong defender, passer, or rebounder and you have a player who struck it rich before the lockout and hasn't done much to show he deserved a max contract. Adding a player with Gay's potential may be exciting for some Wizards fans, but he's a high volume scorer, who would take away shots from John Wall, Bradley Beal, Nene and others.
The Wizards also already owe Nene and Emeka Okafor a combined $26.5 million this year, and $27.5 million next year. If you conclude that it's unlikely a frontcourt-heavy team like Memphis would want Nene or Okafor, the Wizards would be paying a combined $45.3 million for three players in 2013-2014 if they had acquired Gay.
The Wizards' specific offer was never made public, but it's clear they decided to stay the course.

Feig and McCarthy are back to recapture some of that […] [Read More]

It's strange to think one of the most recognizable pop culture figures hasn't had a decent movie in over 30 years. How is that possible?

Making a watchable Superman movie should be a piece of cake […] [Read More]

The 5 doesn't seem to take advantage of any of the screen size increase,
look at all the screenshots on this video..... none see's any increase in text size, video size at all.
Perhaps the best reason not to buy the 5 is it doesn't look any diffent to the 4s.

Thank you for your review; it's very helpful. I am looking to purchase my first smartphone and was wondering whether the iphone5 was worth buying compared to the 4S model. It seems not. I don't know why there is such an obsession with Apple. There is good competition in the shape of Samsung and Sony. Too much choice!

(1.8L 4-cyl. 5-speed Manual)
2005 Toyota Matrix Wagon XR Fwd 4dr Wagon (1.8L 4cyl 5M)
Toyota 5 speed matrix owner--- this car is a great care and i will miss her.This toyota is going on her second transmission at 160k, one trans came with the car the second one came from toyata parts dept new.
Toyota says no know problems with 5/speed they must not look online,or why do they stock so many in the wharehouse if there is no problem.
I can see clutch problems from many driving styles but the trans imploding and the clutch and p plate and throwout bearing are still fine.
Toyota you are on your way to being GM---we
do not know anything about your problem.
The matrix is a great car buy the automatic--
Toyata will not stand behind the 5/speed
Car will go 300k or 3 5/speeds why

Interior road noise, brakes squeak, brake pads wear out. Outside mirrors are a little too small. Seats are a little too low sitting

Terrific car. I've fit sheet rock and lumber, furniture, and my critters (3 dogs and 2 cats) in this car with plenty of room to spare.
Read the full review
This car is great. I love being able to fold down the seats (I think my Matrix actually fits more than my pick-up truck bed). The car is comfortable, great fuel economy and very roomy for a car of its size. The only real complaint that I have is that the tires that Toyota puts on are crap (noisy, very slippery in inclement conditions, and are already cracking with 26,000 miles on the car) but that should be remedied when we replace them. Great car, great value, would definitely recommend.

This vehicle replaced a 2005 Toyota Corolla, The Corolla was nearly a perfect vehicle. The Matrix isn't even close to the quality or integrity of the Corolla. The interior plastic is of very poor quality and appearance. The gas mileage as far, far less than the Corolla. It's hard to believe the Matrix is a Toyota. I am not at all pleased with the Matrix. This vehicle has caused me to substantially lower my opinion of Toyota.

I bought this car to save money on gas over my F-150 4x4. The mileage is great at between 29-32 MPG city driving back and forth to work. I'm 6'5" and am amazed at how comfortably I fit into it. It's a very reliable car, in 18 months, I have had no problems. I change the oil and put gas in it. The interior is awesome with multiple seat configurations when I need space. The outlet in the dash is cool, as are all of the other features I have (premium sound, 17" wheels, sun roof, cruise and A/C). With the 5 speed, it runs very well (not a race car), to include highway traffic with the A/C on - no problems!

I've been mainly happy, when you treat the thing like a motorcycle and bang off the redline at 6,000 rpm in 1st thru 3rd it works not too badly. Engine slow idle is a bit lumpy, and it lacks a bit of power with the a/c on. Absolutely must have 4 good snow tires installed, it's very light and it steps around quite a bit even on wet pavement. Great gas mileage, lots of room and functionality.

I have had my Matrix for almost 2 years and so far it has been a great car but not without faults. The car is a tad underpowered and not as trouble free as I would expect from Toyota but its not bad either. And the suspension needs some improvement because it is very bouncy over bumps, but it handles very well. The interior is the Matrix best feature by far.

I just bought the car yesterday and I love it. It's very roomy; big enough to fit my 6"4 father and two small nephews. The handling is great and the gas mileage is so far so good! A very pleasant surprise! Highly recommend!

Issues: 1)Noisey front end. Dealer says it's the tires (Continentals) and won't do anything about it. 2)Needed a serpentine belt at 12,500 miles. Why? 3)You have to sit on the passenger seat to move it. 4)Auto locks will automatically relock 30 seconds after you hit the button. 5)Driver side window broke at 11,000. Took the dealer 2 trys to fix it. 6)Auto Transmission is "iffy" coming down hills. 7)Rear windshield wiper is noisey even if it's new. (And a new one costs 20 bucks) 8)Spoilers are too low to the ground. Every matrix XR I have seen in parking lots have theirs broked right in front of rear wheels (they bottom out over speed bumps.)

what is the best flower or bush for my zone
I have hummingbird feeders but now want to add flowers or bushes in my flower garden at add to the attraction. Any suggestion on perennials for zone 5????
For flowers I suggest
Hyssop. Daylily
Delphinium. Bleeding heart
Foxglove. Virginia bluebell
Lily of the valley. Fire pink
For bushes I suggest
Rose of sharon
Button bush
Butterfly bush
Azalea. I hope this helps :) Here's a pic of my hummer garden.
The one perennial I had last year that they definitely went for was coral honeysuckle. I'm adding more plants this year, but hesitate to recommend anything I haven't had personal experience growing.
Most of my hummingbird garden last year was annuals and tender perennials. If you're willing to try something that probably won't overwinter outdoors, get a Salvia guaranitica. Blue Brazilian sage. They love it.
