Comments about Alesis S-16 16 Channel Compact Mixer:
Not a bad mixer at all for the price range. I use it gigging now and it gets the job done. Very compact, not a bad price, and doesn't feel like it would bust if it were to take a little damage. Has pretty much everything you need on a mixer for just a gigging four piece doin small to medium gigs. No sub channels or anything to fancy but good enough for the size and price.
Comments about Alesis S-16 16 Channel Compact Mixer:
If you are looking for a quiet portable mixer to use for subbing or mobile work, this should fit the bill nicely.
Quiet circuitry for a board of this price. Buttons and whistles all work. Nice pre-post selections for phones and routing.
Fit is perfect. Finish feels a bit chinese as do the buttons and sliders, but they all operate smoothly.
Terrific bang for the buck.
Comments about Alesis S-16 16 Channel Compact Mixer:
This is a basic, no-frills mixer- but it does work very well for what it is intended to do. If you want effects, etc then look elsewhere. But if you want a nice solid mixer, this is a great buy.
Comments about Alesis S-16 16 Channel Compact Mixer:
I love this lightweight, simple and user friendly mixer. It has 12 tracks total so it can handle a full band even if you mic the drums. It is large enought to handle mid sized gigs but small enough to have onstage for a smaller gig. We do not use effects so we opted to go with a mixer that had more tracks instead of added features/effects.
The only reason it doesnt get a 10 is because it's not intended to have a lot of features. This is a basic mixer with EQ on every track but it does not have any effects. I love it becaus it is super easy to use.
Seems very sturdy and good quality. All the knobs and faders seem to be good quality.
Great price for a 12 track mixer.

Ennead architects is profiled in the current issue of Metropolis Magazine. The firm focuses on public projects, including museums, universities, research institutions, hospitals.
Ennead is one of those firms that distinguishes itself by embracing the teamwork that underlies all architectural production, while evincing an admirable concern for architectural fundamentals: programmatic analysis, lucid detailing, efficient project management, creative insight into client need, and of course a fluency with the language of design that packages all that unsightly sausage-making into an honest work of architecture.
Jeff Goldberg's photographs beautifully show the firm's varied public projects, including the Frank Sinatra High School for the Arts; the Standard Hotel above the High Line; NYFD, Rescue #3; Penn State, Dickinson School of Law, Katz Building; Westchester Community College Gateway.

Lee Gamble
Dutch Tvashar Plumes
Unless you've had no internet for the last three months, Lee Gamble's name should be quite familiar to you lot by now. In swift succession to his exceptional 'Diversions 1994-1996' LP we perhaps get a truer glimpse of his range and practice on its sibling side 'Dutch Tvashtar Plumes'; a substantially longer suite of computerised techno gems oscillating between Hecker-esque sonic illusions and the sort of post-Detroit/UK techno that Actress carved his name on. In contrast to Lee's challenging early work as co-founder of the CYRK collective and the sense of melancholic euphoria on 'Diversions…', there's also a playful sleight of hand at work on 'Dutch Tvashtar Plumes' in fine balance with eerier, eldritch themes. He beautifully captures that classic dichotomy of UK raving music, riding a wave between the physically psychedelic highs of aerobic mysticism and serotonin depletion's dark bliss, and quite importantly that mad bit in the middle when hooks are heard through cubicle doors, all smudged and mangled, lodged in your nut in the taxi home, or catching an unexpected lift from Gary on your monday morning headphone commute. The album's structure iterates the effect, blurring between shorter fragments such as 'Black Snow' and the filtered rhythms of 'Coma Skank (BinocConverge Mix)' (even ending on a sound like that Russian Rave in A Forest youtube clip, a post-party fave of ours) with something like the magical effect of Mark Leckey's 'Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore' or V/Vm's 'The Death Of Rave', and equally in the transition between 'Barker Spirals' head-fug dub and the teasing disco-tech compressions of 'Nowhen Hooks' leading into the Rephlexian melody of 'Tvash Kwawar' and the psychoacoustic stranding 'Kuang Shaped Prowla'. No doubt, it's hugely recommended to fans of everything from AFX to Markus Schmickler, The Connection Machine or Actress.

I was honored to be a speaker last week at Trendspire 2013 in Atlanta, which was the brainchild of Native Marketing working with Turner Media Group (TMG) Insights & Inspirations. Native Marketing has been doing trend research and presentations for Turner since 2011, but this is the first internal company-wide conference to explore trends in media, entertainment, technology and pop culture.
It was a terrific day of inspired panels and presentations, filled with very smart people. Since it was held at, and for the benefit of, Turner, much of the talk revolved around television programming. From what I heard from others, plus ideas of my own that I've been knocking around in my mind for a while, I've come up with four ideas of what the future might hold for a more interactive future of television*
1. Have a TV show host a hackathon, use winning idea in show
Television and hackathons makes a lot of sense. In fact, there was a TV Hackfest in San Francisco earlier this year, and I'll be a judge at the upcoming TV Hackfest in London. The 2nd Screen Society is also producing an AppHACK event with AngelHack in Los Angeles on November 2nd/3rd. These events tend to focus on creating tools to make the consumer experience of watching television better. Here's how the London event describes itself:
What is a HackFest? The aim of TV hackfest is to provide a range of tv technologies, SDK's and API's as well as briefs and competitions – to developers, designers, agencies, creatives and entrepreneurs to build design and show how future video entertainment could be delivered within an interactive multi-screen environment. From first and second screen apps, to social tv mashups and broadcaster / content centric content briefs , the TV Hackfest is a way to get creative and build future mutli-screen TV concepts with some cool prizes for the winners.
But here's what I'd like to see: What if a show like ABC's new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. held a hackathon? Ask the developer community to create a cool new piece of tech and incorporate the winning idea into the show. I'm sure that a developer or start-up would kill to have their app or tool integrated into a primetime television show. The PR for the network, the show and the winning developer would be enormous.
I could also see a brand integrating into this very easily. A mobile phone company would be great for this sort of thing, or really any brand that has a tech focus, or a brand that wants to develop that perception. You could build an entire season-long campaign around this, plus in-show integration and sponsorship of the hackathon.
2. Create spin-off as mobile-only mini-series during off-season
People have a voracious appetite for the shows they love. From Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead to Sons of Anarchy and House of Cards fans count the days until the new season starts. The idea of content made for the web (webisodes) isn't new, but it's time to develop content that is mobile first. Why not make a 5-10 episode mini-series set within the world of an existing show? Twelve to 15-minute episodes could be created to develop secondary characters (for a possible 1st screen spin-off?) or wrap-up plot lines that weren't given enough time during the regular run of the show. In a similar vein, check out USA's Burn Notice graphic novel. Each episode could end with an interactive survey, poll or questionnaire that could provide valuable data to the writers and show-runners.
3. Kickstarter + Gamification = Pilot Picker
One of the tenets of new marketing revolution is the importance of building communities and engaging people on a deeper level, getting them invested in your offering. Kickstarter is a perfect example. Every year networks offer up a host of new programs, yet very few of them survive. Perhaps if people were more directly invested in the success of the show the network could develop a new dynamic with its viewers. Here's how it could work:
- First, properly integrate game mechanics into a network's website.
- Set up a page on the network's site in Kickstarter-style, where writers/producers can "pitch" their shows.
- As viewers accumulate "points" through various activities on the site, allow them to "invest" in new show concepts (prior to shooting pilots).
- The shows with the highest investment (which represents potential viewer interest) get greenlit for shooting a pilot.
This has the capacity to completely disrupt several current industry models, potentially saving money for the nets and generating a higher percentage of successful new shows.
4. 2nd Screen App + Augmented Reality = Character in your room
At TrendSpire 2013, Steve Brown, Chief Evangelist and Futurist and Intel, spoke about what he's expecting to see soon and I was truly excited about an idea he threw out. Computing power is going to be so big and fast that we'll be able to bring characters from the first screen into our living rooms via a 2nd screen app, and they'll be able to recognize and adjust to the environment. Imagine Walter White sitting next to you on your couch discussing the finer points of meth dealing. Or a horde of zombies suddenly stumbling around your bedroom as you pan around the room with your tablet. This sort of 4D experience could open up a host of creative opportunities and truly change the viewing experience in ways we can only begin to dream of.
Mobile, interactive and off-screen are all ways TV can reinvent itself to benefit from the changes in culture and consumer behavior we're currently experiencing. The question is, which networks will jump in and grab first mover advantage.

The IPCC sea level numbers
• Contraction of the Greenland ice sheet is projected to continue to contribute to sea level rise after 2100. Current models suggest ice mass losses increase with temperature more rapidly than gains due to precipitation and that the surface mass balance becomes negative at a global average warming (relative to pre-industrial values) in excess of 1.9 to 4.6°C. If a negative surface mass balance were sustained for millennia, that would lead to virtually complete elimination of the Greenland ice sheet and a resulting contribution to sea level rise of about 7 m. The corresponding future temperatures in Greenland are comparable to those inferred for the last interglacial period 125,000 years ago, when paleoclimatic information suggests reductions of polar land ice extent and 4 to 6 m of sea level rise. {6.4, 10.7}
• Dynamical processes related to ice flow not included in current models but suggested by recent observations could increase the vulnerability of the ice sheets to warming, increasing future sea level rise. Understanding of these processes is limited and there is no consensus on their magnitude. {4.6, 10.7}
• Current global model studies project that the Antarctic ice sheet will remain too cold for widespread surface melting and is expected to gain in mass due to increased snowfall. However, net loss of ice mass could occur if dynamical ice discharge dominates the ice sheet mass balance. {10.7}
• Both past and future anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions will continue to contribute to warming and sea level rise for more than a millennium, due to the timescales required for removal of this gas from the atmosphere. {7.3, 10.3}
(The above quotes document everything the SPM says about future sea level rise. The numbers in wavy brackets refer to the chapters of the full report, to be released in May.)
What is included in these sea level numbers?
Let us have a look at how these numbers were derived. They are made up of four components: thermal expansion, glaciers and ice caps (those exclude the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets), ice sheet surface mass balance, and ice sheet dynamical imbalance.
1. Thermal expansion (warmer ocean water takes up more space) is computed from coupled climate models. These include ocean circulation models and can thus estimate where and how fast the surface warming penetrates into the ocean depths.
2. The contribution from glaciers and ice caps (not including Greenland and Antarctica), on the other hand, is computed from a simple empirical formula linking global mean temperature to mass loss (equivalent to a rate of sea level rise), based on observed data from 1963 to 2003. This takes into account that glaciers slowly disappear and therefore stop contributing – the total amount of glacier ice left is actually only enough to raise sea level by 15-37 cm.
3. The contribution from the two major ice sheets is split into two parts. What is called surface mass balance refers simply to snowfall minus surface ablation (ablation is melting plus sublimation). This is computed from an ice sheet surface mass balance model, with the snowfall amounts and temperatures derived from a high-resolution atmospheric circulation model. This is not the same as the coupled models used for the IPCC temperature projections, so results from this model are scaled to mimic different coupled models and different climate scenarios. (A fine point: this surface mass balance does include some "slow" changes in ice flow, but this is a minor contribution.)
4. Finally, there is another way how ice sheets can contribute to sea level rise: rather than melting at the surface, they can start to flow more rapidly. This is in fact increasingly observed around the edges of Greenland and Antarctica in recent years: outlet glaciers and ice streams that drain the ice sheets have greatly accelerated their flow. Numerous processes contribute to this, including the removal of buttressing ice shelves (i.e., ice tongues floating on water but in places anchored on islands or underwater rocks) or the lubrication of the ice sheet base by meltwater trickling down from the surface through cracks. These processes cannot yet be properly modelled, but observations suggest that they have contributed 0 – 0.7 mm/year to sea level rise during the period 1993-2003. The projections in the table given above assume that this contribution simply remains constant until the end of this century.

Just over 174 years ago, on September 17, 1835, the HMS Beagle landed on San Cristóbal Island in the Galápagos. After over a month of surveying the islands, looking especially for fossils, volcanic activity, and geological features, Charles Darwin left most notably with a collection of birds. He first noticed that mockingbirds of the various islands exhibited considerable variation. But of all the bizarrely tame birds, he wrote in The Voyage of the Beagle that the finches "form a most singular group … related to each other in the structure of their beaks, short tails, form of body and plumage." The variation in Darwin's finches was to be significant for his concept of natural selection.
Now, just to the west of where the Beagle first landed, descendents of Darwin's finches find a food source in the dump of Puerto Ayora, a quickly growing town of about 10,000. The New York Times reports an ecological crisis on the archipelago, as the tourism-driven economy supports a population explosion coming largely from migrant Ecuadoreans. In the last year the government sent over 1,000 people back to Ecuador, no doubt because of pressure from preservationists who worry about the boobies and tortoises.
For evolutionary psychology, this story marks an odd union between the biological and the social. Literally trampling on the roots of a theory of evolution is an introduced population of pigs, running at times from hungry migrants who moved from their homeland for a chance at a decent life. Today in the Galápagos, evolution in the form Darwin observed is being crowded by the social world—a reminder, perhaps, that humans are not exempt from change.

A bill that would make it easier for a domestic
violence victim to change her name coasted unopposed through the House.
The bill would ensure more information is provided to applicants of protective orders- information about legal aid, victims' compensation and other services. The bill's next stop is the Senate for a concurrence motion.

He and M interrogate Mr. White who reveals the organization which blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined. Forensic intelligence links an MI6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where Bond encounters the beautiful but feisty Camille, and she leads him to Dominic Greene, a ruthless business man and major force within the mysterious organization. On a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond discovers that Greene, conspiring to take total control of one of the world's most important natural resources, is forging a deal with the exiled General Medrano. Using his associates in the organization, and manipulating his powerful contacts within the CIA and the British government, Greene promises to overthrow the existing regime in a Latin American country, giving the General control of the country in exchange for a seemingly barren piece of land. As Bond gets closer to finding the man responsible for betraying Vesper, he must keep one step ahead of the CIA, the terrorists and even M, to unravel Greene's sinister plan and stop his organization.

MORRISTOWN – More questions were asked than answered at Wednesdays community forum focused on the prospects of a regional high school.
Officiated by employees with St. Lawrence-Lewis Board of Cooperative Educational Services, the forum gave community members a chance to provide input to the schools board of education on their vision for the future of their school.
Approximately 75 community members showed up with many questions, including the fiscal impact of a regional high school, how many jobs will be preserved through the measure and the timeline that any such plan would take.
David J. Glover, superintendent at Morristown Central School, said Were to the point of being insolvent educationally. Were not offering everything that we think our kids deserve; were not offering the programs we want them to have, were not putting our best foot forward for our kids so they can have the future that we want them to have.
Mr. Glover added, Were not getting the money we need to do it, were being restricted in the ways we can raise taxes for it. Weve got to find a way where the two are able to meet and this is why these conversations have got to come into play. Weve got to find a different way to be able to educate the students of Morristown in a manner than can meet the mission of the school. Were running out of options.
Morristown has roughly $1.7 million in its fund balance, but Mr. Glover expects it to be exhausted in the coming year as it is utilized to pay for everyday operational expenses.
Thomas R. Burns, district superintendent at St. Lawrence-Lewis BOCES, said that the administrators and superintendents from Morristown, Heuvelton and Hermon-DeKalb Central Schools, in association with BOCES, have hired consultant Philip M. Martin of Syracuse to conduct a study on the costs and benefits of a regional high school.
Mr. Martin retired as district superintendent from Fayetteville-Manlius Central School in 2005.
He has a ton of experience doing this kind of work, said Mr. Burns. Mr. Martin did a similar study in Wayne County and a consolidation study for Thousand Islands Central School in Clayton.
Mr. Martin will be meeting with the superintendents next week to lay out the study that is expected to be completed by June 30.
While regional high schools are currently not provided for in state law, Mr. Burns is confident legislation will be passed in the spring of 2013 to enable school districts to form the unions.
But Assembly Member Addie J. Russell, D-Theresa, said she isnt confident this is the best way for schools to solve their very real, and very pressing, budget problems. Regional high schools are a long-erm issue but budgets are being pinched in the short term.
Ms. Russell said that although there were two bills in the state Senate last year that would have allowed schools to form regional high schools, there was no real push for them to pass.
Ms. Russell said they amounted to posturing and were never shopped around to the Assembly to be introduced there.
Instead of waiting for action from the state government, Ms. Russell said there are ways for local school districts to take matters into their own hands.
I think you could figure it all out contractually without having to go through the state, Ms. Russell said.
Ms. Russell said school districts are already able to send high school students to another district and pay tuition and could even work out contract agreements with teachers to preserve jobs.
My goal is not for you all to wait for Albany to make a decision about your future, Ms. Russell said, I would like for you all to make a decision about your future, and then we will go and make sure that Albany does whatever it can to get out of your way.
Mr. Burns agreed that regional high schools are a long-term issue.
It would take 18 months to two years for full implementation, Mr. Burns said.
Mr. Burns said, in the short term, We already have a distance learning network thats pretty enhanced Youre probably going to see more sharing arraignments between districts We have several articulation agreements between colleges – SUNY Canton, Paul Smiths – trying to get kids some early college credits. People are going to be creative.

THETFORD–Going into the Vermont State Cross Country Championships, the Falcons, much like every other school in attendance, were looking to have a good a showing.
Knowing that they had the potential to do some really good things, a confident North Country squad took to the trail and came away with some fantastic results.
For the Falcon boys, Sam Brunnette stayed true to form, finishing 6th in the state (4th in Division I) with a time of 17:09.4.
Alex Cotnoir (17:40.7) came in 20th overall (11th in D I) and right behind him in 20th place (12th in D I) was Andrew Franklin with a time of 17.49.1.
With gutsy performances by Ross DeLaBruere (47th in D I, 79th overall, 19:01.3) and Alex Cope ( 48th in D I 81st overall, 19:01.6) the entire boys team qualified for New England's as they finished 4th in Division I and 5th overall.
On the girls side, Avery Ellis' magical season continued as she crossed the line with a time of 21:09.9, putting her 15th overall (14th in D I).
Ellis too will make the journey with the boys team to New England's at Derryfield Park in Manchester, New Hampshire.
The other top-six scorers for the Falcon girls were Emma Stuart (24:23.3), Jade Dandurand (25:32.5), Rachel Petzoldt (25:36.3), Maggie Stuart (26:43.8) and Gabriela Fort (27:18.6).
Now, Ellis and the boys team will have a couple of weeks to prepare before New England's, which will be held on November 9th

St. Louis (KSDK) - The St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission continue to negotiate to bring the Edward Jones Dome to first tier status.
The CVC sent a release this morning with amendments to their previous proposal that put them and the team roughly $500 million apart.
The CVC said in a statement, "In response to concerns expressed by the St. Louis Rams regarding the preliminary plan for first tier improvements submitted... the plan has been amended."
Theentire 128-pageplancan be viewed online.
The new plan was submitted to the Rams on August 17.
The St. Louis Rams and the CVC headed to arbitration over the Edward Jones Dome in June.
Negotiations began in February with the CVC proposing $124 million in Dome improvements.
The Rams countered with a much broader plan that city leaders say could cost $700 million.
The CVC rejected that plan, telling the Rams that their proposal, "guts and demolishes most of the current facility, eliminates significant improvements made with public money, and proposes virtually a new facility."
Under the terms of the lease, if the Dome is not among the top tier of NFL facilities the Rams will be free to leave after the 2014 season.

It hit the wires today that there has been a little scandal surrounding The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Apparently director David Fincher does not want to pare down his cut, which is clocking in at 17 hours and 32 minutes.
We were recently sent these concept pictures that the producers have been using to help cast the new Superman in a more edgy light. From the looks of these, he is definitely a lot darker than ever before.
Our list of non-sucky discs is relatively short this week. But, as the days get shorter and people start settling in to get fat over the winter, we'll slowly see lots of good stuff seep out of Hollywood and into Christmas stockings. Or into Hanukkah stockings. Or whatever kind of stockings Satan worshippers fill with nifty gifts. The Office: Season Four
My young, formative brain was totally freaked the fuck out by the original Poltergeist. It's a genuinely creepy movie. But what's more creepy is the supposed 'curse' that has followed the franchise throughout the making of all three films. Four of the actors involved in the films died over the period of six years.
Episode: "Maidenform." Glorious summer has come to Sterling Cooper, and what better time to focus on women's underwear? Playtex want a new campaign to compete with the racy imaginations of their rival Maidenform (virgins with racy imaginations, oh my!).
There are plenty of reasons not to like Brett Ratner. Everything from his appearance on Entourage to his huge stockpile of incredibly shitty, but bafflingly profitable movies (X-Men 3, all of the Rush Hours) seems to scream, "I'm what makes people hate Hollywood." Well, Brett told MTV that he wants to make a Guitar Hero movie, and his proposed plot is every bit as horrific as you would think.
Most of us have a big three-day weekend coming up, which makes this week all that much harder to sit through. But, rather than buckling down and getting your work done, why not poke around the internet and watch free episodes of The OC? See, that's much better.
I've been missing Ann Coulter's horsey face lately. When she's quiet, it's like I forget how important it is to hate your fellow human beings. Here are a few of her craziest moments, in hopes we can inspire her to flap that lip again sometime soon.
Between Vin Diesel movies and Animal Planet shows about a dude who gets eaten by a bear, this could be a decent weekend.
This is the first contest here on Screenjunkies.com and it's making me feel all special and wet on the inside. You can share in that feeling and maybe win yourself a copy of Kenny Vs. Spenny: Volume 1 Uncensored on DVD.
It was recently announced that Jason Segel will be writing the new Muppet movie. This is a man who has been involved in other children's' films, such as Knocked Up and Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
Ok everyone, here are some picture of Jessica Biel from a new Movie called Easy Virtue, which is a heartwarming tale about blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Episode: "Nasa Moon Landing." I try to get into fist fights with conspiracy theorists as often as possible. They're usually fat guys or 15 year olds with studded leather jackets so I win pretty easily. But, the Mytbusters are taking a more tactful approach, opting to prove the cellar dwellers wrong with nerdy scientific experiments.
Episode: "The Deep South." The south is a dangerous enough place, what with all of the cholesterol-laden foods and NASCARs whipping around all over the place, but Bear dropped himself in the middle of what he calls "Katrina Country" to bite the heads off of some snakes and piss off some alligators. The terrain:
I did this post yesterday about getting Sean Connery a birthday present. It was before this came to my attention. Now I'm adding Pimp Stick to the list. From Filmdrunk.
It always amazes me how excited people get about social networking sites, and then at some point just decide that they are totally lame. Like do you kids remember Friendster? Back in 2002 I was all OVER that shit. Then Myspace came along and had more hot young girls. And at some point, people just all abandoned that ship and headed to facebook.
Just in case you didn't get enough fake, jungle action when you saw Tropic Thunder in the theater, you can go check out the full, half-hour long Rain of Madness documentary for free from the iTunes store.
You know it's never a good thing when people try to 'distance' themselves from something. Like how people tried to 'distance' themselves from the Titanic or the Hindenburg, or how people step on landmines and get 'distanced' from their feet.
Admittedly, I'm not a huge comic nerd, but there are some titles that I'm pretty fond of. Preacher is definitely one of them, which is why it makes me kind of sad that the planned HBO series based on the comics has died a painful death before it ever had a chance to live. The good news is, that we didn't end up with some toned-down version of an epicly violent story.
For the most part, I hate animated movies, especially when they waste an amazingly hot chick doing voice acting for them. But, Kristen Bell has reportedly agreed to be the lead female part in Astro Boy, which is apparently a story about a creepy-looking, Japanese robot boy who flies around weirding everyone out with his enormous eyes and metal underpants. Hot pictures of Kristen to counteract the nerdiness after the break.
It's not easy getting a gift for the best Scottish actor that has ever lived. But we put our heads together and came up with some seriously good ideas. Here they are, in ascending order. 10. Personalized Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones
When I was putting together this mornings DVDs that don't suck post, I saw something interesting on Amazon's new releases page. Right above the Elisha Cuthbert rom com, My Sassy Girl was a $40 DVD called "The Best of Penis Massage." Of course I clicked on it, forever ruining my Amazon recomendations for the sake of a laugh.
Jail is not a place I ever want to go. Sure, they probably wouldn't make me race for my life like they did in Death Race, but there would almost certainly be raping and that's not for me, thanks. But jail is different in the movies and these 8 guys might make pretty good cellmates. 8. Lt. Gen. Eugene Irwin from The Last Castle
We're only one week away from an avalanche of good TV premieres, so I wouldn't go crazy buying DVDs this week unless you're in some kind of full-body cast. But there is some good stuff dropping. Here are the highlights.
Heroes: Season 2
Episode: "Head Cheese". After last week's big happenings, things slowed down for this episode, probably so they can get everyone into position for the last two episodes of the season. It looks like some shit is about to go down. Nancy:
Man, she's so pretty it kind of hurts. And not only that, she went to Yale. And she's in the new Fast and Furious movie, which I have to wait until 2009 to see. Did I mention how pretty she is? Man.
With last night's closing ceremonies, the 2008 Beijing Olympics closed out one of the highest rated TV events in the history of the idiot box. We're all guilty of watching at least some of it, but now it's time to get back to business as usual. That business, of course, is not giving a crap about anything even remotely Olympics related.
You can lament the time wasted in your youth, your shitty attention span in elementary school, the rattail that you had when you were in middle school, the girls that you could have screwed in high school but you didn't, the girls that you could have screwed in college but you still didn't.

SANDY CREEK Two men and a woman were charged by state police Tuesday over a punch-throwing, knife-wielding and kitchen-pot-swinging brawl July 17 at a residence in the town of Sandy Creek.
Charged with second-degree menacing are James R. Button, 41, and Nicole L. Cronon, 35, both of 31 White Birches Drive, and Anthony J. Seifert, 62, of 5894 Route 11. They face prosecution in Sandy Creek Town Court.
Police said the disturbance occurred at the Button-Cronon residence. Mr. Seifert is accused of reaching into a vehicle being driven by Mr. Button to punch him. Mr. Button, meanwhile, allegedly threatened Mr. Seifert with a kitchen knife, and Ms. Cronon is accused of striking Mr. Seifert at least twice with the cooking pot, police said.
Undisclosed is what the fight was about.

Baseball Drops 7-1 Series Finale at Little Rock
LITTLE ROCK, Ark - The Creighton baseball team suffered a series sweep with a 7-1 loss at Arkansas-Little Rock on Sunday, Feb. 16.
Creighton fell to 0-3, while Arkansas-Little Rock (UALR) moved to 3-0 in 2014.
Down 2-0 after the first inning, the Bluejays got on the board in the top of the second with three straight hits. Sophomore Reagan Fowler got things going for Creighton with a one-out infield single. Junior Kevin Lamb moved runners to first and second with a single to center. Sophomore Brett Murray followed with an RBI double to right-center to plate Fowler. Lamb, however, was cut down at the plate attempting to tie the game at 2-2.
With new momentum, UALR plated four runs in the bottom of the third on three infield singles and a three-run home run to push its lead to 6-1. The Trojans added an insurance run in the seventh to complete the three game sweep of Creighton.
Sophomore Austin Groth suffered the loss (0-1) for the Bluejays, allowing six runs on eight hits and a walk in 2.1 innings.
The Trojans got seven strong innings from Cameron Allen as he held the Bluejays to one run on three hits to pick up the win (1-0).
Creighton returns to action on Friday, Feb. 21 as the Bluejays open a three-game series with Minnesota in Fort Myers, Fla. at 12:00 pm.

Full TitlePhase I Multicenter, Open-label, Clinical and Pharmacokinetic Study of Lurbinectedin (PM01183) in Combination with Weekly Paclitaxel, With or Without Bevacizumab, in Patients with Selected Advanced Solid Tumors
Lurbinectedin (also known as PM01183) is an investigational drug that causes cancer cells to die by binding to and causing breaks in their DNA (genetic material). The drug has been shown to shrink or control tumor growth in patients with various cancer types, including cancers of the breast, lung, and ovaries.
Laboratory studies have shown that the drug paclitaxel, which has been used for many years to treat cancer, helps lurbinectedin to control cancer cell growth and to cause cancer cell death. In this study, researchers want to find the highest dose of lurbinectedin and paclitaxel that can be given together in patients with lung, ovarian, cervical, endometrial, breast, head and neck (squamous cell), or germ cell cancers, or adenocarcinoma of unknown primary. Both drugs are given intravenously (by vein).
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
- Patients must have advanced or inoperable lung, ovarian, cervical, endometrial, breast, head and neck (squamous cell), or germ cell cancers, or carcinoma of unknown primary.
- Patients may have had up to three prior regimens of chemotherapy for advanced disease, but may not have had weekly paclitaxel or nanoalbumin-bound paclitaxel for advanced disease.
- A sufficient amount of time (generally three to four weeks) must have passed since completion of prior treatment and entry into the study.
- Patients must be physically well enough that they are fully ambulatory, capable of all self care, and are capable of all but physically strenuous activities. As an example, patients must be well enough that they would be able to carry out office work or light housework.
- This study is open to patients ages 18 to 75.
For more information and to inquire about eligibility for this study, please contact Dr. Alexander Drilon at 646-888-4206.

We firmly believe that everything happens for a reason and life can work out in unexpectedly and serendipitous ways. One example that comes to mind is the accidental acting career of Amber Heard. Upon researching Heard's circuitous path to her current position as Hollywood's next big thing, we discovered that before she decided to test her chops in front of the rolling cameras, she moved from her hometown of Austin, Texas to New York City to pursue a career in modeling. And though that may not have panned out as she originally hoped, when you cut to the presentÂ--memorable bit parts in The Pineapple Express and Zombieland, not to mention an upcoming role on the big screen opposite Johnny Depp in The Rum Diary (Hunter S. Thompson-inspired bio-pic, which will be released in March 2010)Â--this young rising star has most definitely landed on her feet. Of course, with a career on the ascent, and an armory of killer red carpet ensembles in the bag, we can't help but think Amber Heard is right where she's meant to be!
Heard donned one such outstanding outfit at a celebratory dinner for the CFDA/Vogue Fashion fund at Bouchon in Beverly Hills last month. Though her draped and deconstructed vintage dress is certainly divine, we like how she added a little contrast via a deluxe black fur shrug. Be sure to recreate this flawless combo with Lisa Jayne Dann's Cowl Neck Mini Dress ($212) layered under Topshop's Knitted Shaggy Cardigan ($135). Just remember to add your go-to black opaque tights and an oversized party clutch, and you'll be ready for any fashionable festive event in Heard-endorsed ensemble! Also, on a beauty note, mimic Heard's glamour-girl look with a chic chignon or asymmetrical undo (very of the moment this holiday season!), strong brows, and a red lipÂ--if you are feeling fancy!
Just as Heard demonstrated a winning way to wear black and white at night, she also often turns to that stark palette for day events, as well. Seen at a fashion show supporting emerging American designers at the legendary Chateau Marmont (earlier that afternoon!), Heard rocked yet another dynamic ensemble. Though her satin Moschino skirt and brilliant Balenciaga printed blouse are certainly daring, we are fond of the way she kept the silhouette classic. Though her exact pieces are no longer available, make sure to check out Patterson J Kincaid's Egyptian Tunic Top ($98) tucked into Forever 21's Satin Sheath Skirt ($15) or Topshop's Ruched Wrap Skirt ($65).
Of course, a GOTM can not live in skirts and tops alone; in fact, she's got quite the dress collection, as evidenced by her animal-printed Yves Saint Laurent frock, which she wore to the Los Angeles premiere of House Bunny in late August. Leopard pieces such as boots, scarves, and most recently, cropped coats have been all the rage this season, but we particularly like how Heard's demure dress strikes the right balance between being on-trend without seeming over-the-top. The modest length and neckline is refreshing on such a PYT, so we absolutely wanted to present you, dear readers, with a few variations on this chic cat-inspired number. Betsey Johnson's Leopard Print Dress ($288) is a spot-on dead-ringer for Heard's YSL dress, but we are also wild about Only Hearts' Leopard Jersey Open Back Dress ($158), and Rare's Leopard Print Knitted Dress ($58).
Finally, we have an outfit that shines as strongly as our subject du jour, specifically her get-up for Jason Wu's spring preview in Los Angeles in October. This pale jacket and saffron satin skirt from the designer's S/S 10 collection are quite lovely, but we think it's her sequin-bedazzled top that really steals the show. Of course, all three pieces are wise investments and would look sharp on their own, but if you wear them all together, as Heard deftly does, you'll have the recipe for sartorial success. Just mix Kimchi Blue's Sweater Top Coat ($148), with a shiny top selection like Silence & Noise's Sequin Racer Tank ($68) or Forever 21's Shimmer Striped Tunic ($18) and repeat if necessary for every elegant evening event on your calendar!

Big Machineby Victor LaValle
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
A fiendishly imaginative comic novel about doubt, faith, and the monsters we carry within us.
Ricky Rice was as good as invisible: a middling hustler, recovering dope fiend, and traumatized suicide cult survivor running out the string of his life as a porter at a bus depot in Utica, New York. Until one day a letter appears, summoning him to the frozen woods of Vermont. There, Ricky is inducted into a band of paranormal investigators comprised of former addicts and petty criminals, all of whom had at some point in their wasted lives heard The Voice: a mysterious murmur on the wind, a disembodied shout, or a whisper in an empty room that may or may not be from God.
Evoking the disorienting wonder of writers like Haruki Murakami and Kevin Brockmeier, but driven by Victor La Valle's perfectly pitched comic sensibility Big Machine is a mind-rattling literary adventure about sex, race, and the eternal struggle between faith and doubt.
"LaValle has garnered critical acclaim for his previous works (a collection, Slapboxing with Jesus, and novel, The Ecstatic), and his second novel is sure to up his critical standing while furthering comparisons to Haruki Murakami, John Kennedy Toole and Edgar Allan Poe. Gritty, mostly honest-hearted ex-heroin addict protagonist Ricky Rice takes a chance on an anonymous note delivered to him at the cruddy upstate New York bus depot where he works as a porter. Quickly, Ricky finds himself among the 'Unlikely Scholars,' a secret society of ex-addicts and petty criminals, all black like him, living in remote Vermont and sifting through stacks of articles in a library devoted to investigating the supernatural; the existence of a god; and the legacy of Judah Washburn, an escaped slave who claimed to have had contact with a higher being that the Unlikely Scholars now call 'the Voice.' Ricky's intoxicating voice — robust, organic, wily — is perfect for narrating LaValle's high-stakes mashup of thrilling paranormal and Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man, as the fateful porter — something of a modern Odysseus rallied by a team of 'spiritual X-men' — wanders through America's 'messianic hoo-hah.'" Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"LaValle is as much wry fabulist as he is dogged allegorist, and his flights of grim fancy are tethered by acute observations. He can be awfully funny, too. [His]devilish fable renders the visible world — of science, social hierarchies, and New York Times headlines — a load of cultish hooey." Bookforum
"Beautiful." Vanity Fair
"Fractures all of our notions of how well-made fiction ought to behave...idea-hungry and haywire, too alive and abrasive to be missed. The multicultural novel has come of age smashingly." Kirkus (starred)
"Big Machine is like nothing Ive ever read, incredibly human and alien at the same time. LaValle writes like Gabriel Garcia Marquez mixed with Edgar Allen Poe, but this is even more than that. Hes written the first great book of the next America." Mos Def
"If the literary Gods mixed together Haruki Murakami and Ralph Ellison, and threw in several fistfuls of 21st century attitude, the result would be Victor LaValle. Big Machine is a wonderful, original, and crazy novel." Anthony Doerr, author of The Shell Collector and About Grace
A fiendishly imaginative comic novel, Big Machine is a mind-rattling literary adventure about sex, race, and the eternal struggle between faith and doubt.
An American original, Peter Rock brings our strangest beliefs to vivid and sympathetic life in this haunting novel inspired by true events.
and#8220;Riveting, suspenseful . . . Achieves a unique harmony between otherworldly beliefs and earthly realities.and#8221; and#8211; San Francisco Chronicle
Francine and Colville were childhood friends raised in the Church Universal and Triumphant, a religion that predicted the world could end in the late 1980s. While their parents built underground shelters to withstand the impending Soviet missile strike, Francine and Colville played in the Montana wilderness, where invisible spirits watched over them. When the prophesied apocalypse did not occur, the sectand#8217;s members resurfaced and the children were forced to grow up in a world they had believed might no longer exist.
Twenty years later, Francine and Colville are reunited while searching for an abducted girl. Haunted by memories and inculcated beliefs, they must confront the Churchand#8217;s teachings. If all the things they were raised to believe were misguided, why then do they suddenly feel so true?
and#8220;[A] remarkable, empathetic exploration of the nature of faith, meaning and happiness.and#8221; and#8211; Laura Miller, Salon.com
Ricky Rice is a middling hustler with a lingering junk habit, a bum knee, and a haunted mind. A survivor of a suicide cult, he scrapes by as a porter at a bus depot in Utica, New York, until one day a mysterious letter arrives, summoning him to enlist in a band of paranormal investigators comprised of former addicts and petty criminals, all of whom had at some point in their wasted lives heard what may have been the voice of God.
Infused with the wonder of a disquieting dream and laced with Victor LaValle's fiendish comic sensibility, Big Machine is a mind-rattling mystery about doubt, faith, and the monsters we carry within us.

Old Pawn Turquoise Jewelry
Durango Silver Company has a good informational page on old Indian Turquoise Jewelry. Pawn Indian Jewelry began in the late 1800's. Often, Native Americans would need quick cash for living expenses and they did not want to sell their personal belongings, so, they would pawn their Indian Jewelry, Rugs, Pottery or anything they had of value. In most cases the Indian Traders had trade goods such as food, clothing and living essentials that they would then sell to the Indians as a convenience as well as another means for the Indian Trader to make money.
We invite you to view our presentation on Pawn Indian Jewelry as well as our full story on Pawn Turquoise Jewelry.
