The five most memorable moments at the Grammys
In revisiting the most memorable moments of the 55th Grammy Awards, there are several places we can start. Shall we begin with the surprise album of the year victory by Mumford & Sons? Or with the hearty superstar tribute to Levon Helm? Or perhaps with Katy Perry's provocative dress, the most revealing outfit since J. Lo's chest-plunging ensemble (or lack thereof)?
For this Grammy post-mortem I'll be keeping my eyes on the music (although you should really check out this pic of Ellen DeGeneres with Perry). Photos below courtesy of Reuters. »Read Full Blog Post
Mumford & Sons wins album of the year at Grammys
British folk band Mumford & Sons pulled off a surprise victory at the 55th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night, winning album of the year away from fellow nominees the Black Keys, and fun., who were dominating the night.
Before the nominations were announced last year, Mumford was an early favorite to win music's biggest prize. Its sophomore album, "Babel," had the second-highest week of sales last year according to Billboard, and the band's sweeping, banjo-strumming style paved the way for a lucrative folk renaissance, inspiring other acts like the Lumineers and Phillip Phillips, who've also had big sales successes. »Read Full Article(2)
Despite memo, Grammy red carpet features plenty of skin
Los Angeles - A warning not to show too much skin didn't seem to deter the stars out Sunday for the Grammy Awards.
Jennifer Lopez was among those showing off thigh-high - or higher - openings in their dresses, and she joked about it as she took the stage to present an award. Katy Perry showed down-to-there cleavage in a seafoam gown. »Read Full Article

Kaplan's revue a musical tribute to friendship
The enduring theme in the many collaborations between James Kaplan and the late Fred Alley was friendship, through which others pull us out of ourselves and challenge us to grow.
It's therefore only fitting that Kaplan's latest - a moving show that honors Alley, the creative force behind American Folklore Theatre, in so many ways - is titled "Jimmy Kaplan and Friends." It opened over the weekend in the Sunset Playhouse's Studio Theatre in Elm Grove. »Read Full Article

Katy Perry is either playing a prank on the media or doesn't care if we think her sparkling diamond ring is from rumored fiancé John Mayer.
Perry attended the MTV EMAs in Amsterdam on Sunday and was showing off a sparkling diamond ring on her ring finger. It's not the first time we've seen the ring; she wore it during her trip to Japan and in the photos she shared from the country.
Mayer and Perry would have been together for a year as of this summer, but the couple split in March before trying to make it work again weeks later.
A source told E!, "It's inevitable, [the two are] very serious. Everyone wants them to get engaged. They are so perfect together."
It would be the second marriage for Perry, who wed Russell Brand in 2010. He filed for divorce 14 months later. Mayer has infamously divulged details about the many women he has dated, but he has never married.

Posted on 02/17/2005 12:42:49 PM PST by zarf
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - When it comes to carbohydrates, it's not how much you eat, but which kind, that makes a difference to your bathroom scale, new research shows.
People who are overweight do not appear to eat more carbohydrates overall than people who weigh less, the researchers report in the American Journal of Epidemiology. However, they found that overweight people tend to eat more refined carbohydrates, such as white bread and pasta, which cause a rapid spike in blood sugar.
"Total amount of carbohydrate is not related to body weight," Dr. Yunsheng Ma of the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester told Reuters Health. "It's the type of carbohydrate that's important."
These findings suggest that low-carbohydrate diets, which recommend people cut back on all carbohydrates, are missing the mark, Ma added.
"Carbohydrates are not the enemy," he said in an interview. "But you have to watch the kind of enemy."
Ma explained that refined carbohydrates are often found in processed foods that contain a lot of sugar. This type of carbohydrate has what's called a high glycemic index, meaning it causes a rapid increase in blood sugar. The body stores that sugar in muscle, but if it is not used, it becomes fat, he noted.
In contrast, whole grains, fruits and vegetables have carbohydrates that don't have such high glycemic index, Ma said.
In the report, Ma and his colleagues note that in the last 20 years, the rate of obesity has increased, despite the fact that people are eating less fat. To help investigate the role carbohydrates play in obesity, the researchers measured the height and weight of 572 healthy people, and asked them to regularly report what carbohydrates they ate. Ma's team followed study participants for one year.
They found that people with a higher body mass index -- a measure of weight that factors in height -- tended to eat carbohydrates with a higher glycemic index. The amount of carbohydrates people ate had no influence on body mass index.
"Refined carbohydrates are no good, but the total amount of carbohydrates is okay," Ma noted.
He added that some countries now include a food's glycemic index on the labeling, which can be helpful for people trying to lose weight or deal with diabetes.
SOURCE: American Journal of Epidemiology, February 15; 2005
something most of us who have studied this kind of thing have known for years.......glad science as usual is catching up......
If you want to lose weight, watch what fat people eat and then don't eat that.
You're telling me that refined carbohydrates like sugar and white bread are BAD for me??
And whole grains, fruits, and vegetables are GOOD??
Dude! You blow my mind!
>>All together now:
My thoughts exactly. This reminds my of my experience with local tv. I haven't had tv since 1997 and I have noticed, when exposed to the local tv news on occasion lately, that they speak as though to children.
I find it odd.
For example, potatoes have one of the highest GI numbers of all foods.
I used to work with a lot of Chinese people. They had the same kind of life the rest of us did, sendentary, sitting at a desk most of the week. Not a single one was fat. I think it was their diet, lots of veggies, rice, and not a lot of fried stuff.
"Exercize" is a word not in the article.
Not one single person that I know who is overweight, does regular exercize.
Not one single person that I know who exercizes regularly, is significantly overweight.
I haven't any idea, whatsoever, about their diets.
Yet another study from the "No Sh*t" department...
Maybe you need to get out more.
This was the basis of the book "Sugarbusters" wasn't it?
The book is what, 10 years old?
But Fat people eat everything!
It confirms what I've been saying, gathered from much research and bad dieting, for a very long time now. If only we could get the high fructose corn syrup out of just about everything we eat... It's like the corn lobbies and the diet industries are in collusion. The government tells Americans we're too fat, and they will tell us how to eat, and then they advocate the addition of these high glycemic additions to way too many processed foods that we eat...
But cultures that eat high quantities of pasta and rice don't have higher-than-average obesity rates. Why is that?
"But Fat people eat everything!"
That's not necessarily true. Some "fat people" ruined their metabolisms by becoming professional dieters.
I like the very apt reference to "Al-Reuters". I have read that they are controlled by the Saudis. If they are not, they certainly act as if they were.
Next thing you know, they'll find out that exercise helps...
...who would've thunk it???
But they eat everything! (Just kidding)
Low carb ping
Since I started working out 5 to 6 days a week at the gym and can pretty much eat whatever I want but I also see the same overweight people working out 5 or 6 days a week for the last three years and they haven't lost any weight.
"high glycemic additions to way too many processed foods"
The only way to get around this is to stop eating as much processed food as you can-our family didn't have a problem with overweight, but not eating that stuff just seemed like a healthier way to eat. I've been cooking everything fresh now for several years on a modified Atkins plan and neither of us has gained a pound and my husband, who has always gotten indigestion from certain foods rarely has it now. I can't believe any scientist didn't know there were "bad" and "good" carbs-duh is right...
A friend of mine cured her acid-reflux while on South Beach Diet. Those carbs increase acid apparently.
They probably haven't changed their diet any, and would likely be putting on weight if they didn't work out.

Must see!
Mash and Cinelli continue their collaboration lineup with these ergo, 70mm reach, shallow drop bars, perfect for street track , CX or road bikes. No cable recesses means they'll look great on a track bike! Pick up a pair at Mash.
One of the true hustlers in the urban cycling scene is Chas from TCB Courier. Also a Mash / Cinelli rider, Chas was approached by the Italian brand to design a cycling cap for their Rider Collection Cap lineup. Check out this interview as Chas talks about what got him into bikes and the stigma associated with cycling caps!
I've got one and it's one of the more unique caps out these days. You can pick one up at Cinelli's Winged Store!
Mike Martin from Mash delivers more gritty, grainy goodness from the Red Hook Crit Milano. I always enjoy reading race reports from Mash and this one is not to be missed. Check it out here!
I love it when Mike Martin from MASH travels with his team. I've seen numerous photos from the Masi shop over the years and few do it justice like these. Head over to Mash for more radness!
Mike over at Mash was out at the Bay Area Super Prestige Series races this weekend in SF with his team of rippers. You've gotta head over to Mash and check more photos out.
To kick off cross season, Mash has just loaded their web shop with the a complete run of the new RGB kits. Head over to Mash to scoop because they won't be in stock for long.
Cross is here for a lot of the US and the MASH team competed in DFL #02 last weekend. Check out a race report at Mash!
Here's the production sample for the bike that the Mash team has been riding for the past year and a half. Dubbed the Parallax, here's the scoop from Mash:
"We are happy to introduce our 2014 offering with Cinelli. The Parallax frame set was developed and field-tested over the past 18 months, with Chas and Walton deciding and tuning the bike's geos. Like with any MASH project, every detail is fleshed by our group of friends. Garrett designed the graphics and colors of the bike and matching skin-suit, drawing inspiration from charts used to check the sharpness of camera optics. Enclosed are some details from this collaboration. Look for more updates as the racers prepare for the third installment of the Red Hook Crit series here, in Barcelona."
See more photos at Mash SF.
Caught this on the MASH Instagram and had to share… More fun in cycling is always a good thing. Scoop one, or a pair up at Mash.

THE PHRASE "jewel box" is overused to the point of cliché, but there is absolutely no other way to describe the 134-seat hidden treasure where the Cape May Stage folks serve up their brand of stagecraft.
Located in a 110-year-old building that was a church before being converted into the town's Welcome Center (and then into a theater), Cape May Stage's home may be the biggest surprise the historic burg has to offer.
"When people come from Philadelphia, for example . . . they are always amazed at the comfortable seats, the air conditioning, even the [Italian] marble in the bathrooms," said Roy Steinberg, who is currently in his fifth season as Cape May Stage's producing artistic director.

Notre Dame cruises past St. Louis
Nothing fancy, just your basic Friday night win for Notre Dame.
The Pios remained patient through a scoreless first quarter and watched the pieces fall into place for a 34-3 win over St. Louis.
As has been the norm for meetings between these two teams, St. Louis gave a few unexpected looks and kept the game scoreless for the first twelve minutes. Notre Dame coach Lewis Cook was not as surprised as those sitting in the stands behind his team might have been.
"They always do a good job of scheming against us. They took away a few of the things we do with a couple of small changes in their defense. We're just lucky to have the experience up front we have and to be able to communicate with them what has to be changed."
It wasn't like Notre Dame was headed off at any time in the game. The Pios kept the ball the first half of the first quarter on a 10 snap drive and played it safe by punting from the St. Louis 39 yard line. Three plays later, Gavin Bourgeois put the offense back at the same spot with an 18 yard punt return.
Brad Stoma connected with Kevin Frank for completions of 11 and 9 yards for a first down at the Saints 11 to start the second quarter. Shea Zaunbracher powered for 10 yards to the one and Stoma followed center Conner Arceneaux into the end zone with 11:29 to go in the half.
"We converted a fourth down to get that first score and that was a big play for us," added Cook. "We had the fumbled punt and another bad snap on the extra point, but aside from that we played pretty good and there isn't much to be upset with about our effort."
The Pios defense teamed for an interception on the next possession when Christian Landry deflected a pass high into the air. Intended receiver Karlis Gardner leaped to pull down the tipped pass and Pios linebacker Hunter Stelly made a crushing tackle to jar the ball back up into the air for Gavin Bourgeois to intercept at the Saints 41 yard line.
Brad Stoma completed a 14 yard pass to John Michael Besse. On third down from the Saints 24, Stoma again found Besse from the right slot for a 24 yard TD pass.
"That second score was an ad lib play by Besse and Stoma," explained Cook. "We had a quick out called and usually they will force that outside. J-Mike kind of set it up and settled in the hole and Brad read what he was doing and hit him with the pass. Besse turned it up and outran everyone to the goal line."
The Pios defense forced another three and out and Notre Dame went to work from the Saints 37. On the first play, Brad Stoma went down the center of the field to sophomore Boedy Borill for a pass completion in stride at the goal line and a 21-0 halftime lead.
The Pios defense allowed just one first down and 8 total yards of offense in the first half. It got no better for St. Louis to start the second half when linebacker Hunter Stelly, who led the Pios with 9 tackles, forced a fumble on the first play and set ND up on the 8 yard line.
"At the beginning, we were keying on what we expected to see and they changed things a little bit," noted Stelly. "It wasn't anything we haven't seen at some time, we just had to make sure we adjusted to get into position to defend what they were doing. We pretty much just played base defense and adjusted to their looks."
It only took one play and 15 seconds of the third quarter to extend the lead to 27-0. John Michael Besse burst off right tackle for an 8 yard TD run.
"We talked at the half with our offensive line and they told us what they were seeing up front," added Coach Cook. "I tell tackle Reese Besse to take his guy down, tell J-Mike to run at the tackle and tell the fullback to take out the linebacker. We snap it and boom, boom we get a touchdown. They come back and say coach, it was just like you drew it up. It goes back to what we talked about with our guys up front. They can tell us what is happening and we can tell them what they need to do to adjust and they just get it. Some years, we don't get that kind of understanding when we get them on the sideline."
St. Louis again could do nothing against the Pios defense and punted after three plays. Notre Dame needed six plays to cover 59 yards with Damon Comeaux capping the scoring on a 3 yard TD run. Brad Stoma had a 33 yard pass to Joe Faulk and a 25 yard run to the Saints four that set up the final TD.
"We knew they were a little limited offensively and our defense didn't let them have much all night," said Cook. "They give you so many looks and all week coach Mac was stressing about having to defend everything we expected they would show us with the unbalanced fronts, four man over and all the movement. We just controlled the front and they could never get anything going against us."
The Pios reserves mounted a final drive on runs of 22 and 14 yards by fullback Ivy Paul Robichaux. With the outcome already decided, the Pios kept it simple and the drive stalled at the Saints six yard line.
"Those young guys put a good drive together," smiled Cook. "We limited what we were doing because we were really trying not to put another score on the board. We just ran off tackle the rest of the night, and every one of their coaches thanked us for that. You don't want to embarrass kids and kick them when they're down."
Saints tailback Terrell Rodriguez popped through for a 65 yard run to the Pios 21 yard line with five and a half minutes to play. Cullen Richardson kicked a 34 yard field goal to get St. Louis on the scoreboard for a 34-3 final.
Other than that one long run, the Pios defense allowed St. Louis just two first downs and 13 yards of total offense on 26 plays. The defensive front teamed for 11 stops with Nate Link turning in another solid performance on 5 tackles, one for a loss, a sack and a QB hit.
The offense balanced the attack with 191 rushing yards and 143 passing from Brad Stoma who completed 9 of 10 attempts. Stoma spread it out to five different receivers with John Michael Besse and Kevin Frank each catching three passes.
Notre Dame gets its final test before league play at Catholic, New Iberia next week. The Panthers evened their record at 2-2 with a 41-20 win over E.D White.
"Catholic has some weapons on offense," summed up Coach Lewis Cook. "We certainly don't have to motivate them to play us. It will be a tough game for us and we'll get to work on Monday to prepare for another challenge."

Thanks for the comment, I'm afraid you are mistaken. You're rather fooled by the tilting slope in front of the cottage and the (relatively) small size posted here. If you look at it large you can see that the cottage (which is the only thing to be surely straight) is dead straight, and some vertical poles are also completely vertical.
Thanks again, Alex
Thanks a lot! I must say that I've tried similar "recoveries" many times but this was the only one that came out so successful.
Regarding the "original" one, I'm really surprised it finished there ( I'd expect even lower) because if seen alone it's really terrible. But I'm also a bit surprised because I thought that those two challenges were going to be voted in a parallel way (If I'd vote some processed photo for the 1st place, I'd also vote its original 1st too) To be honest I didn't thought we needed an extra challenge for the originals, one challenge where we'd have to submit both "before" and "after" would be enough. I don't find anything interesting in seen (and voting) the originals other than realising what have been done in PP, as these photos were specially selected to be submitted on the sole reason of being crappy enough to need a good amount of PP. If they were any good in the first place then they're not suitable by definition for the "PP challenge"
I suppose that's one of the mysteries of the challenges...
Thanks again!
ok seen it now!

hi where do i see the original to compare?
Interesting image and nicely done but my eye was instantly jarred by it not being straight. I would simply have to give it an anticlockwise twist a couple of degrees. To me that would make it so much better
Beautiful and entrancing image, very much in the style of California serigraph artist, Eyvind Earle, whos work can be seen at http://gallery21.com/serigraphs_eyvind_earle.php
We have one of Earle's works and it is beautiful. Your image would look beautiful in a large format, framed in glossy black. It is the type of image with a striking, yet subtle, sensibility, that one could see every day and not weary of it.
Talk about turning a useless pic into something astounding...I love this photo and know it has done extremely well in previous challenges...just had no idea that the original looked like THAT (ref "original" challenge)!!! Just feel bad for the "original" pic that fared so poor in its own challenge..:)

|Human Participants
It is college policy to ensure that the rights and welfare of human subjects are adequately protected in research conducted under its auspices. In addition, federal and state laws and regulations require these protections. In order for the college to fulfill its responsibility and to comply with the law and regulations, all human subjects research conducted under college auspices must receive appropriate review and approval.
Does my project need to be reviewed?
Before the review process, researchers must be sure that their project is, in fact, human subjects research as defined by the federal government. In order to qualify as human subjects research, the following must be true:
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services Human Subject Regulations Decision Charts
LEVEL 1: Department Level Review (Department Level Checklist)
Certain student research projects do not have to be submitted for Institutional Review Board approval but should be reviewed at the department level. Projects that may be reviewed at the department level include laboratory projects, educational exercises and class projects, and action research within a classroom with performance or grades as the sole outcome measure. Each department is to designate one representative to the IRB to serve as the reviewer for department level protocols. In order to qualify for department level review, the research must be disseminated only within the BSC campus. For example, research presented at the Student Research and Creativity Celebration or theses bound and filed in the library may be reviewed departmentally, but any research that will be presented at regional or national conferences or published in journals should be reviewed at Levels 2, 3, or 4. All faculty research, all research that may be risky or on a sensitive topic, or that includes children, except as noted for action research, must be reviewed at Levels 2, 3, or 4.
If your protocol falls under this level of review, contact your department's IRB representative.
LEVEL 2: Exempt or Limited Review (Certificate of Exemption form)
The federal government uses the term "Exempt" to indicate that a protocol is exempt from the higher levels of review because of its low risk for harm. This does not mean that the project is exempt from oversight. Exempt projects simply require less paperwork. Projects that qualify for Exempt or Limited Review include, but are not limited to:
LEVEL 3: Expedited (Expedited or Full Board Review form)
Projects that are more intrusive than exempt projects or that require the participation of children (aside from action research as noted in Levels 1 and 2), may qualify for Expedited Review. In this case, the protocol is similar to that of the Full-Board Review, but the project is reviewed by one designated member of the IRB. The designee may approve the project, request additional information, or submit the proposal to the IRB for Full-Board Review and approval. Some examples of Expedited Review projects include, but are not limited to:
LEVEL 4: Full-Board Review (Expedited or Full Board Review form)
Full-Board Review is the highest level of review for human subjects protocols and is designed for projects that are sensitive in nature. The review is conducted at the next scheduled meeting of the IRB. Some examples of Full-Board Review projects include, but are not limited to:
Do I need ethics training?
All faculty members conducting human subjects research or supervising student research need to complete ethics training, as specified by the federal regulations. All students conducting human subjects research at Levels 2, 3, or 4 also need to complete this training. We encourage students conducting Level 1 research to complete the training as well, but this is not mandatory. Although researchers may complete other federally-approved training programs to satisfy this requirement, we encourage researchers to complete the CITI program, for which the college has a site license. To access this training, visit the CITI website https://www.citiprogram.org/.

The Department of Defense awarded two contracts to Science Applications International Corp -- better known as SAIC (UNKNOWN: SAI.DL ) Thursday. Combined, the contracts suggest just under $63 million in incremental revenue for the company.
The smaller of the two awards, for $22.7 million, came in the form of an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ), cost-plus-fixed-fee, multiple award contract to support special projects and electronic submarine systems for the U.S. Navy's Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Pacific, San Diego. SAIC won one of two contracts on offer, and will now be able to bid for work up to the maximum amount stated -- or even a bit more. According to DoD, the base contract may be extended by up to two one-year option periods. If both options are exercised, the contract value could rise as high as $38.2 million, and run through May 2018. Otherwise, work will wind down in May 2016.
The larger award, for $40.2 million, is also an IDIQ contract, also cost-plus-fixed-fee, and also covers multiple (four, to be precise) awardees. Here, SAIC has won the right to bid for work supporting the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Defense Readiness Support System. This contract also has a three-year base period, and also includes two one-year options. If exercised, these option years would bring the potential value of this contract to $68.2 million, and extend work through June 26, 2018.

Wow lookin smooth man, that shorter hair does look a bit nicer, but probably isn't as fun to headbang with the longest my hair's been is probably about shoulder-length, and that was just before I shaved all my hair off for the cancer thingy they have annually.Originally Posted by Ren

Supreme Court takes on privacy in digital age
WASHINGTON -- Two Supreme Court cases about police searches of cell phones without warrants present different views of the ubiquitous device. Is it a tool for a criminal or is it a virtual home?
How the justices answer could determine the outcome of the cases being argued Tuesday. A drug dealer and a gang member want the court to rule that the searches of their cell phones after their arrest violated their right to privacy in the digital age.
The Obama administration and California, defending the searches, say cell phones are no different from anything else a person may be carrying.
Groups on the right and left seek a broad view of the privacy issues raised when police have unimpeded access to devices that may contain personal data.

Panhandle-area child medical, social and education workers will gather Wednesday in Amarillo for a meeting sponsored by Early Childhood Intervention.
The ECI group assists Texas families with babies or toddlers with disabilities or developmental delays, an ECI news release said.
Dr. Eric Levy will be the featured speaker at the 11:30 a.m. luncheon at the Big Texan Steak Ranch, which will be attended by invited area pediatricians, neonatologists, nurses, social workers, hospital personnel, educators and child-care personnel, the release said. ECI state representative Mary Jo Miller will speak to attendees about the organization.
ECI staff, aware of the interplay among different areas of development, serves as a safety net for the families and children by providing special assistance, the release said.
In Texas, it is estimated that the annual cost of special education in the public school system averages $4,065 per child, according to ECI information. In fiscal year 1998, nearly 1,712 children were dismissed from ECI with developmental proficiency.
If these children do not need special education services, the estimated annual savings to the state will be $6.9 million, the news release stated.
For more information about ECI, call the Amarillo branch at 358-8974 or the Region 16 Education Service Center ECI office at 376-5521.

Russia, Ukraine feud over sniper carnage
KIEV, Ukraine -- One of the biggest mysteries hanging over the protest mayhem that drove Ukraine's president from power: Who was behind the snipers who sowed death and terror in Kiev?
That riddle has become the latest flashpoint of feuding over Ukraine -- with the nation's fledgling government and the Kremlin giving starkly different interpretations of events that could either undermine or bolster the legitimacy of the new rulers.
Ukrainian authorities are investigating the Feb. 18-20 bloodbath, and they have shifted their focus from ousted President Viktor Yanukovych's government to Vladimir Putin's Russia -- pursuing the theory that the Kremlin was intent on sowing mayhem as a pretext for military incursion. Russia suggests that the snipers were organized to stir anti-government outrage.
The new health minister said the similarity of bullet wounds suffered by opposition victims and police indicates the shooters were trying to stoke tensions on both sides.

Chelsea's five-game winless streak was snapped Saturday as Andre Villas-Boas fielded a veteran side which easily dispatched Bolton Wanderers 3-0 at Stamford Bridge.
The lineup in which Ramires was the only midfield player to survive from the midweek defeat to Napoli, welcomed back Frank Lampard and Michael Essien who received cheers as their names were announced. It is safe to say that for all the debate there has been about the future of these elder stars, they were a welcomed sight as the incompetent Raul Meireles and inept Florent Malouda found the bench.
Generally a win over the 19th-place team in the Premier League would not warrant much discussion by Blues fans, but given the fact it has been so long since we have last seen it happen, this was a good day for the club.
However, it also shows how few and far between wins have been this season.
Through Villas-Boas' first 39 games in all competitions, he has posted a sub-par record of 20-10-9. For a club that has become a world power over the past decade, this is just not enough.
But it does give me an idea for a good and even-numbered list.
I have gone ahead and tried to rank all 20 wins for the boss in matter of meaning it had for him and security for his job.

LICHT-UNG / IRIS GARRELFS - SPLIT (10" vg+/vg+)
"Split 10" in a of the excentric german art-project Licht-ung with the british soundartist IRIS GARRELFS. Two pieces with ominous dronescapes, strange clouds of rather dull moaning sounds, pulses, crackles, resonance-bubbles, quite exciting in their indeterminableness. Great record, very much recommended. Comes with colour-photo sticked on, and inlay. Numbered edition of 106 copies." (label info)

I feel that some developers are too focused into cramming as many pixels as they can into a scene when they should be working on making good use of those pixels, smoothing loading times and increasing fps to a constant 60 fps. They could probably do away with loading screens entirely, either hiding them or making them entertaining enough that you don't need to feel like you have to wait.
Games that don't run on as powerful systems can still look really nice because they have a good aesthetic. But aesthetic doesn't sell systems. Part of it could be that consumers have high, almost realistic expectations of how a game looks and like to nitpick everything.

Graphics are at their peak, but for a different reason. They're at their peak because only titles with $20 mil can pull them off. With that kind of budget, there isn't much room for actual innovation. It's too big of a risk. So yeah, we can have better graphics, but at what cost? The same gameplay we've had for the past 10 years?
Honestly this is true. That being said the indie developers on PC/xbox live/PSN aren't exactly redeveloping the world. There are many games that take familiar ideas and mix them up to make them seem new and different.
We've reached a point where every cool idea has been tried across the years and now developers are just trying to mix it up. Also I personally don't want them constantly redoing the wheel. Having Genre's is fine it's all about how you do them. Yes all open world games are inherently like GTA but if the execution is done well and it's full of interesting characters and a unique setting you can still get great games that don't do anything shockingly different with gameplay. Red Dead, Mafia 2 and Sleeping Dogs are good examples. Just like I don't expect authors and movie makers to create a new genre or idea it's about how they take already established ideas/genre's and give them there own spin. We are at that point in gaming now. Taking old ideas and giving them a new spin, we aren't going to see completely new genres that are wildly different and completely new just pop up like they did in the 90's.

Graphics aren't at their peak, but it's in a stage of diminishing returns.

Its saddening that the majority of gamers during this age rave over graphics and the way a game looks as opposed to how it feels and sounds.
Growing up (Atari 2600 onward), video gaming has made me feel a euphoric, borderline addictive escape from reality. Not looking, but more importantly not feeling real. I always envisioned gaming pioneering interactive software through immersion and escapism and not being bottlenecked by small idiosyncracies.
The way graphics are obsessed over is disheartening. Yea, I know games should be visually appealing, but I remember a point where a small (large) amount of clipping or glitching didn't matter (NES) as long as I had fun with the game I was playing and again, experienced some type of escape from reality.
Don't get me wrong, I have a tv capable of 1080p, a PC with 16g of ram (for audio purposes, not gaming) and I've owned almost every console released. I've banged with the best in quake, halo, unreal, and cod. And I've also had my favorite fantasy outings like Zelda, Metroid, Sonic, Mario, etc... it could go on forever.
TL;DR Gaming controllers<Analog Sticks/Polygons and texture mapping<Network gaming<Touch screens<Multiple displays<Motion controls. Should move onward: Holograms/projections<full VR.
We are stuck between motion controls/holographic displays; hence graphic wars.

It's only going to be diminishing returns until realtime raytracing of complex scenes is possible on common hardware, then there will be a huge jump.

Go watch the Samaratin DirectX11 demo. The demo runs in real time on an Nvidia Kepler GPU. Nothing currently available, Wii U includes, can or will come close to that demo. PC tech is so far ahead that consoles haven't been left in the dust, they've been left in the past. Aso, have ypuseen any computer animated films? We still haven't even hit the stage where games look as good as Toy Story.
