Here is everything you need to know about director Guillermo del Toro's sci-fi, action film, 'Pacific Rim'...
Planet Earth has been invaded by the Kaiju...Super sized monsters that have risen from a portal underneath the ocean...Millions of earthlings have died and things are not looking good for humanity.
Our only hope for stopping these monstrous creatures are the Jaegers...a special type of robot which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots, whose minds are synched via a neural bridge, called 'The Drift'.
Unfortunately, the enemy grows more powerful with each attack, so even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju.
And lastly, like in most sci-fi action flicks, everything comes down to one or two dudes (or in this case, one dude, one dudess) who will try to save mankind.
So to sum up...It's monsters vs robots...and that's it.
Yes, the plot as well as the characterizations are thin...The film is all about the special effects and they are spectacular.
In fact, the visuals are so spectacular that they make it worth the price of admission...Especially if you are a teenage boy/gamer.
However, even though I'm very far away from that demographic, I really enjoyed this film. It was very entertaining and well cast...
Charlie Hunnam, (t.v. show 'Sons Of Anarchy) Rinko Kikuchi ('Babel'), Ron Perlman, Idris Elba ('Thor), Charlie Day ('Horrible Bosses'), Rob Kazinsky, Max Martini and Clifton Collins, Jr. do an excellent job bringing their thinly developed characters to life.
For that reason, I gave 'Pacific Rim' which opens in theatres, Friday July 12, 2013, 31/2 bagels out of 5. Oh and definitely see it in 3D...

So you can imagine my surprise, when I sat down to watch 'The Lone Ranger' and found it filled with one joke after another...and not very funny ones.
That's right guys and girls, this is an action comedy, at least according to the press notes...And there is plenty of action...Unfortunately, for me, it wasn't enough to save the film.
'The Lone Ranger' actually reminded me of this little ole movie entitled, 'Pirates Of The Caribbean' Strange huh?
Not really...Since the director, Gore Verbonski, also directed 'Pirates' and the screenwriters, Terry Rossio and Ted Elliott wrote all four movies in the franchise.
And speaking of 'Pirates, Mr. Johnny Depp (Tonto) appeared to be channeling, Jack Sparrow. But instead of wearing a pirate's hat on his head...he wears a dead crow.
Now, I love Johnny Depp...I think he is a very fine actor, but as Tonto, I just didn't buy him...At times, he sounded like like a bad 'Catskill's comedian instead of a Native American warrior.
As for Armie Hammer, (The Lone Ranger/lawyer John Reid) was absolutely wonderful in 'J. Edgar' and 'The Social Network' but here, he comes off as just plain goofy, but I blame the writers more than him.
However, there are several characters in the film that I really enjoyed....Starting with the 'good guys/girls'...
Silver, the Lone Ranger's beautiful white horse, did a great job...If there's such a thing as an Oscar for animals, Oscar, this guy should get one.
Helena Bonham Carter (Red Harrington) a Madam with an ivory leg, that shoots bullets, is a standout, as is...
James Badge Dale, who portrays, Texas Ranger, Dan Reid, our masked man's brother.
And now for the villains...
William Fichtner (Butch Cavendish) the bad ass outlaw, who's the Lone Ranger's archenemy is excellent...Has that whole menacing thing down pat...
Barry Pepper (Captain Fuller) egocentric, Indian killer is spot on...and last but definitely not least...
Tom Wilkinson, (Latham Cole) a ruthless, immoral railroad executive, who loves a good cigar, a nice glass of wine, and destroying anyone who gets in his way.
The film is very long...over 21/2 hours and it isn't until the last 15 minutes, when the 'William Tell' overture kicks in, that I sat up in my seat...
But, by that time, it was too late for me to give 'The Long Ranger, which opens in theatres, Wednesday July 3, 2013, anymore than 21/1 bagels out of 5.

On paper, this film must have sounded like a great idea...Super Uptight, friendless, socially awkward, FBI Agent has to partner with a foul mouth, crass, Boston cop in order to bring down a vicious drug lord...
Add Oscar winner, Sandra Bullock and Academy Award nominee, Melissa McCarthy to the mix, plus director, Paul Feig ('Bridesmaids') and you have a perfect female, 'buddy flick'. What could possibly go wrong?
Well in the case of 'The Heat', written by first time screenwriter, Katie Dippold, a great deal...Mainly the film, which is a comedy, just isn't funny.
Not funny enough that is...
Melissa McCarthy (Shannon Mullins) plays the trash talking Boston cop and Sandra Bullock, (Sarah Ashburn) is the career driven, by the book, FBI agent.
Now don't get me wrong...Melissa is one funny lady. She can crack you up with one look or tilt of her head...and Miss Bullock can do uptight, lonely and vulnerable in her sleep.
The problem lies with the script...Not only are you one step ahead of the story, but the film is extremely contrived...
It's obvious from the get-go, that these two ladies, will wind up being BFF, by the time the credits roll.
Sarah, who is disliked by her fellow Agents, wants a promotion...bad...Her boss, (Demian Bichir) promises her one, if she can take down this big time drug lord, who operates out of Boston.
Faster than the speed of light, Agent Sarah, says so long to New York City and heads to Boston. Nothing is going to stand in her way...
Only problem is, when Sarah arrives at the Boston Police Station, to interrogate one of the drug lord's dealers, (Spoken Reasons) she comes up against, Detective Mullins, who is anything but happy that this snooty FBI gal is encroaching on her territory.
To make matters worse, these two ladies are forced to partner with each other and well, you can figure out the rest...Let's just say it includes a BIG girl-bonding moment with lots of drinking and dancing...Never seen that before...
The script tries hard to get the audience to care about these women. They even make Sarah a foster child and throw in a super dysfunctional family for Mullins. Jane Curtin plays her mother and Michael Rapaport is Mullins ex-con drug addict brother.
When I see a comedy, I expect to laugh. Unfortunately, with this film, I only chuckled and not more than a few times. For that reason, I gave'The Heat' which opens in theatres, Friday, June 28th, 2013, only 2 1/2 bagels out of 5.

First off, I was definitely not looking forward to seeing this film. I mean, I just saw the White House blown up a couple of months ago in a not so great movie entitled, 'Olympus Has Fallen'...How could this new version be any different? ...
Well, I don't know about different, but 'White House Down' directed by Roland Emmerich is definitely better...In fact, it's really, really good and that has a great deal to do with,..Channing Tatum and Jamie Fox.
Tatum plays John Cale, a U.S. Capitol policeman, who is trying really hard to be a good dad to his preteen daughter, Emily (Joey King). John, in the past, had trouble holding down jobs...problems with authority and was your basic screw up.
However the guy wasn't a complete loser...far from it. Cale completed three tours of duty in Afghanistan and during one of them, he just happened to save the life of a fellow soldier...And not just any soldier...This one is the son of the Speaker of the House (Richard Jenkins)
The Speaker repaid Cale by hiring him as a part of his security detail. However, Cale has higher aspirations...He wants to be in the secret service...and guard, President James Sawyer, (Jamie Fox) In fact, he's applied for the job.
Which makes his daughter Emily, one very happy girl. Not only is she obsessed with politics, but thinks Sawyer is the greatest thing since i-phones. Well not really, but she really does like the man.
As a surprise, Cale arranges to take Emily on a tour of the White House which turns out to be the same day as his interview for the secret service job. Perfect right?
Not quite. During his interview, led by Secret Service Agent Carol Finnerty (Maggie Gyllenhaal) Cale is told he just doesn't have what it takes for the job and will never ever become an agent. In other words, she encourages him to aim lower...much lower.
But as the movie gods or in this case, screenwriter, James Vanderbilt would have it, as Cale and Emily tour the White House, all hell breaks loose.
That's right folks, the Capitol building is bombed, the White House is invaded, and some really nasty men, led by Jason Clark, take hostages, shoot people, and blow things up...
I won't tell you their motives or who's behind it all, but I will say, that by the time this movie is over, John Cale won't ever have to worry about being unemployed.
Channing Tatum and Jamie Fox play off of each other beautifully. They have great chemistry and even though bodies are dropping left and right, there is still plenty of room for humor between the two guys.
The whole cast including James Woods as the head of the President's detail, Nicolas Wright as the funny White House Tour guide, and Rachelle LeFevre, as Cale's ex wife are all excellent.
I gave 'White House Down' which opens in theatres, Friday June 28, 2013, four bagels out of five, because I was thoroughly entertained and when you see a big budget action movie, that's exactly what you want to be.

Superman/Clark Kent/Kal-El (Henry Cavill) is a guy with...angst...a great deal of angst. He wants to fly around the planet and save people, but thanks to his earth daddy, Jonathon Kent (Kevin Costner) he's afraid to do that.
What? Superman afraid? Yep or maybe paranoid is a better word.
Ever since he was a boy on the farm, Clark was told by Jonathon, that the world is not ready for him. That his super powers would scare people...
And in 'Man Of Steel' directed by Zack Snyder ('300') and written by David Goyer, that certainly seems to be the case...At least for most of the film....
Which is part of the problem...Who wants to see Superman moping around, even if he is as cute as Mr. Cavill?
Through a series of flashbacks, we find out what every human on planet earth already knows...i.e. how Kal El's biological dad, Jor-El (Russell Crowe) and mom, Lara Lor-Van, sent him to earth as a newborn baby, when they realized that Krypton was doomed. We also find out why...
The super bad-ass, General Zod (Michael Shannon, doing his usual villain thing) and his evil Kyptonian posse, hate Jor-El and a few other things that I won't go into here, for fear of spoiling it for those folks unfamiliar with the story.
Anyway here on earth, we continue to travel back and forth to Clark's youth...meet his mom, Martha (Diane Lane) and get glimpses into his difficult childhood in Smallville. After all, It's hard being an alien kid, who can burn down a city with a single glance.
Of course, what would a Superman movie be without Lois Lane?. This time, Miss Lane (Amy Adams) is a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and right from the start, she knows Clark's real identity and yes, they're 'hot' for each other.
The Daily Planet's editor, Perry White is also back and he's played by Laurence Fishburne.
There are definitely a lot things that I enjoyed about 'Man Of Steel' ...The scenes on Kyrpton, plus the ones between Clavill, Costner and Lane are among my favorites.
My big problem with the film is how repetitive it is...I mean how many times can you watch Superman throw Zod into a building and vice versa?. According to Snyder, many, many, many times. Guess he wanted to make sure that the audience got their $225 million dollars worth.
I gave 'Man Of Steel' which opens in theatres, Friday June 14, 2013 only 31/2 bagels out of 5. I really expected to like it much more than I did.

I was really expecting not to like this film. I thought it would be the same old Vince Vaughn comedy that I've seen hundreds of times before and frankly wasn't all that crazy about.
So I was really surprised, when I found myself laughing aloud. 'The Internship' is a really funny, clever and even touching film, filled with endearing characters and a theme that everyone, no matter what your age, will be able to relate to...It's never too late to go after your dreams. Unless, of course, you're 80 years old and want to be an astronaut or prima ballerina.
But that's not the case in this film. Vince Vaughn plays Billy McMahon, a high energy, verbally dexterous salesman. Along with his partner and BFF, Nick Campbell, a master at soft spoken persuasion, these two can sell anything to anyone.
Unfortunately, their ways are coming to an end, thanks to the digital world. In fact when we meet them, Nick and Billy are informed by a client they're trying to sell watches to, that their company has closed down. Who needs watches when you have a computer to tell you the time? says their boss, John Goodman.
With no job prospects in sight, Billy and Nick find themselves in a situation that a lot of people in the 40's and 50's face...How to reinvent yourself to fit into this new ever changing digital world?
Luckily, Billy discovers that Google is looking for interns and against all odds, they get accepted into the Google intern program.
Here's where the movie becomes a 'fish out of water' story. All the other interns are under 20 and they are super brilliant, especially when it comes to technology. Something our boys are not. Plus only one team of Nooglers (interns) gets to become Googlers (Google's paid employees)
As the interns are put through a series of tests, Billy and Nick must draw upon their crackerjack salesmanship skills, their life experiences and swagger to lead their team to victory.
'The Internship' written by Vince Vaughan and Jared Stern ('The Watch') and directed by Shawn Levy ('Night At The Museum') is filled with a wonderful cast of characters, including, Rose Byrne as Dana Sims, a career focused high achieving Google executive/love interst for Wilson and Josh Gad, (Headphones) a silent mentor.
I found 'The Internship' which opens in theatres, Friday June 7th, 2013 to be a very entertaining and uplifting film for all ages. For that reason,I gave it 4 bagels out of 5.
Of course once again, The Two Jews On Film are split. Check out our video to see what John thought about this movie and for his bagel rating.

Every son, whether conscious or unconscious, wants to impress his dad...Wants to gain his father's respect.
In the year 222 AE (after earth), after a series of cataclysmic events forced humanity to leave earth and settle on Nova Prime, that concept still holds true.
Kitai Raige (Jaden Smith) wants desperately to be a Ranger like his dad, General Cypher Raige, (Will Smith). Cypher is not only a Ranger but he's a super Ranger having saved the humans of Nova Prime from the planet's fiercest alien threats...The Skrel and their nasty monster creations known as the Ursa.
But that doesn't seem to be in the cards for Kitai. He's just flunked his Ranger test and is hounded by guilt, from a childhood incident. Kitai doesn't feel like he'll ever live up to his father's expectations.
Of course this being a movIe, Kitai will soon get the chance to prove to himself and to his daddy just what kind of stuff he's made of, when...
A spaceship carrying him and Cypher crash lands on the now quarantined Earth, killing everyone, except the two of them. Their only hope of rescue is a beacon which landed some 50 miles away from the ship.
Cypher is critically wounded so it's up to Kitai to retrieve it.
With his dad monitoring and directing him from the ship, Kitai must face unchartered terrain, savage animals, a hostile deadly environment, and the unstoppable, Ursa who can sense human fear.
Piece of cake right?
'After Earth', directed and written by M. Night Shyamalan, along with Gary Whitta from a story by Will Smith works on many levels...
I liked the story, especially the concept of overcoming one's fear as well as the depiction of a futuristic Earth. The film has a nice tension and at times, is very exciting.
Unfortunately what didn't work for me and in fact, almost ruined the movie, was the acting of Jaden Smith. The kid acts with his eyebrows, indicates all over the place and pushes way too hard in the emotional scenes.
Having said that, I still gave 'After Earth' which opens in theatres Friday May 31, 2013, three and a half bagels out of five as I was entertained.

Can't exactly remember what my last headache was. I know my files are probably a mess but I'm afraid to touch anything. Currently have the amvapp and whatever plugins or extras. Was crossing my fingers for a painless process and almost immediately hit a dead end. I ripped Castle in the Sky and saved it as a d2v project but get this error when I attempted to open it in VirtualDub.
The avisynth I'm using is:
- Code: Select all
MPEG2Source("E:\AMVProjects\Little People\Footage\CastleInTheSky.d2v")
Also though it was weird that Vdub or one program seems to automatically be creating new default avs files that say..
- Code: Select all
#ASYNTHER Default (AVISource)
AVISource("E:\AMVProjects\Little People\Footage\CastleInTheSky.avs")
I tried doing what was suggested and find all instances of DGDecode.dll - I assume the main one needed is the one in the AMVapp > DGMPEGDec > DGDecode.dll
I tried renaming other instances, or copying the same DGD file over the one in the avisynth 2.5 folder. Is there any other suggestions?
Recently tried adding LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\AviSynth 2.5\plugins\DGDecode.dll") but didn't make a difference. I'm probably going about this all wrong. Any help from those more tech savvy than me appreciated

The flowers are in bloom and there's that special something in the air that no other season has. Yes, spring is finally here and with the changing of the seasons comes the changing of your cocktails. Say goodbye to Hot Toddy's and Mulled Wine and say hello to these delicious classic spring cocktails that are easy enough to make at home.
This is a fairly classic cocktail that most people overlook because of the gin. The strong flavor turns off plenty of people as do the horror stories that always start with "So I finished a bottle of gin" and ends with "and somehow I woke up in jail." Don't believe them! Gin is great for the summer because of its unique taste and the Bees Knees is a simple, yet delicious cocktail. The honey mellows the juniper taste and the lemon juice adds brightness.
Ingredients for one drink
- 1.75 oz gin
- 0.75 oz honey syrup
- 0.5 oz lemon juice
- Ice
- Lemon wheel garnish
- Cocktail Shaker
- Jigger
- Martini glass
To make the honey syrup: Mix together equal 4 oz of honey and 4 oz of hot water. Mix until the honey and water are fully incorporated. Don't skip this step, otherwise the honey won't mix in with the rest of the drink.
- Fill mixer 3/4 of the way full with ice
- Combine all ingredients into the mixer and cover
- Shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds
- Strain into a martini glass
- Garnish with lemon wheel
The mojito is by far the most popular cocktail once the temperature hits above 65, and it's no surprise. The freshness from the mint helps cut through the sweetness of the sugar and the lime adds that nice zing that complements the mint and sugar perfectly. If you don't want just a plain mojito you can add strawberry or mango to really kick it up a notch (as Emeril would say)
- 1.5 oz white rum
- 1 oz simple syrup
- 3 lime wedges
- 4-5 mint leaves
- Ice
- Club soda
- Muddler
- Cocktail Shaker
- Jigger
- Rocks Glass
To make simple syrup: Mix together 1 cup of hot water and 1 cup of sugar. Mix until the sugar is completely dissolved. Don't just add sugar into the mojito as sugar doesn't really dissolve well in cold things.
- Put the limes in the shaker first and then the mint on top and then muddle until you start smelling a very strong mint scent. If you're adding in fresh fruit, add them in before you muddle everything.
- Add in the rum and simple syrup then top with ice.
- Shake vigorously for about 10-15 seconds.
- Pour entire contents into a rocks glass
- Top with a splash of club soda.
When you think summer, bourbon doesn't really come to mind, but there's no reason why you shouldn't be drinking bourbon all year round! This is great for people who want a strong drink but don't want to just drink a bourbon on the rocks. The sugar brings out the sweetness of the bourbon even more and the mint adds a nice refreshing after taste. While you can use normal ice, the drink is best served over crushed ice, which can be obtained by using the muddler.
- 2 oz bourbon whisky
- 0.75 oz mint simple syrup
- Crushed ice
- Mint garnish
- Muddler
- Jigger
- Stirring spoon
- Rocks Glass
To make mint simple syrup: In a saucepan 1 cup water and 1 cup of sugar. Add about 1/4 cup of mint leaves and bring the water to a boil all the while stirring so that the sugar dissolves. Once all the sugar has dissolved, remove from heat and strain the mixture to get rid of stray mint leaves.
- Pour the bourbon and mint simple syrup into a rocks glass
- Top with ice
- Stir the mixture with the bar spoon for about 10-15 seconds.
- Garnish with mint leaves

- " I definitely think that there should be more than one outlet in each room. Having the outlet on the other side of the rooom made charging my phone and valuable electronics hard. Also, Internet could be expanded to common areas like the kitchen and the lounge rooms. Otherwise, the staff was really kind and there was definitely a nice hostel culture. I think hostel wide events where travelers traveling on their own can meet others would make the experience even better than it was! "
- 28 Jun 2013 Anonymous USA
- " This is a really well set up and well run hostel. It is huge but doesn't feel like it. F ROM the owner on down to the staff everyone was very friendly and happy to help in any way needed. If this place has one draw back it might be the small kitchen. It can get a bit cramped in there if there are several people cooking at once. This is one of the best places we have stayed on this trip. "
- 18 Jun 2013 scott USA
- " Was on a small side street that I had trouble finding walking back in the dark, which you don't really want to do if you're a woman traveling by yourself. The bathrooms were clean, but kind of old which made them feel less clean... Half the cabinet locks were busted in my room. The people were nice, though, and they had a nice common area where you could chill out with other travelers. "

- " It is a really nice hostel. The staff is very friendly and helpfull. The area is great, close to Kloof street where you can find lots of funky bars and trendy restaurants. We had a private room and although it was not very big, it was very clean and cosy. We had also a safe in our room and coffee and tea making facilities, which is very nice. The other shared rooms like the kitchen and bathrooms were always clean. "
- 09 Feb 2013 Emilie
- " One of the great hostels of the world. Wake up in the morning and have breakfast from the superb menu with great coffee, while you look up at the ever-changing panorama of Table Mountain. The staff and owners are cheerful, friendly and have a wealth of local and regional knowledge. Chill out all day on the patio or take or tour, but be ready for a full night of fun in the bar and an after-hours trip to a local nightspot under the guidance of the amazing Lucas. Clean, eco-friendly and fun. "

Can I buy the 10.6 Family pack and use it to upgrade one macbook running 10.5 and one macbook pro running 10.4?
I have a old fairly broken down Macbook Pro that was a seriously early revision, like 13 weeks out of the factory. It is running the latest version of Tiger (10.4.11? I can't remember). I also have a newer Macbook running 10.5.8.
My plan is to use the old MBP with a external harddrive hooked up to a tv to play my movies. I'm fairly stubborn and want to do this using dvdpedia and frontrow but the plugin will not work under 10.4, only 10.5 or 10.6.
So I was wondering if I could purchase the Snow Leopard family pack and upgrade BOTH my computers? I know in the description it says to upgrade from Tiger I need the box set edition but I do not need any of the iApps, in fact I would delete them straight away so no way am I paying $NZ349 for it. This is probably more than the computer is worth seeing as the airport card, battery and dvd drive do not work.
Sorry if this is overly complicated but I am a student and I don't want to commit my money if there is no hope of achieving what I want! If anyone has some answers or clarification for me that would be amazing :)- Asked by Frances R from Dunedin

Owned a Mac for years: MAC OS X 10.4.11 / 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo / Safari 4.1.3. No software updates available. What's best way to upgrade?
If it isn't already apparent, I'm also not very "computer literate". I've been told I need to bring the Mac into a store, but that's really not feasible. I know there have been several software tiers since my "ancient" form of Safari (Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard and now Lion). Had Firefox at one time, but can't seem to get it again (without updating the computer, which I have been unable to do as of yet).
Oh, don't know if it's important -- but "memory-wise" -- the computer has 1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (not that I know what any of that means).
I honestly don't have a clue what to do -- and the fact that I'm considering both an iBook and an iPhone purchase in the near future only confuses me that much more. Any help would be appreciated so I can get the most out of my computer.- Asked by Scot C from Brooklyn

This major international exhibition extends beyond the remarkable new museum buildings of the 21st century to give voice to the many co-creators of museum projects – city builders, artists, curators and the public as well as the architects themselves.
It considers how developments in design, technology and the modes of enjoyment of - and learning about - culture are changing museums. It examines the ways in which museum projects - whether large-scale permanent buildings or smaller temporary structures - shape the communities in which they are located, how we think about them, and even how we live in them.
Our exhibition will explore, celebrate and critically examine about 20 current and upcoming museum building projects which are all located in districts, campuses or clusters and which will be categorized into 5 distinct sections in the show.
A richly illustrated catalogue will accompany and complete the exhibition, but may also be read as a comprehensive overview over the topic on its own, with stimulating essays by thought leaders from many disciplines including economists Richard Florida/Kevin Stolarick, sociologist Saskia Sassen, and urban culture expert Robert Palmer.
Curator: Suzanne Greub, Assoc. Curator: Gail Lord
Editor: Suzanne Greub
Languages: English, Chinese, Arabic and other languages (depending on venues).

Snyder defends using nonprofit NERD fund to pay for Orr's expensesBy Chris Gautz
Gov. Rick Snyder
Gov. Rick Snyder said the use of a fund to pay for the living and travel expenses of Detroit Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr, should not cause taxpayers to be alarmed and is actually saving them money. At an event today at the University Club at Michigan State University, Snyder was asked if taxpayers should be concerned since those donating to the fund do so without having their names made public, and whether the might be doing so with the expectation of some political favor in the future. The fund is a 501(c)(4), which is a category that according to the IRS includes social welfare organizations and local associations of employees. "We've been very clear it's all legal, it's all been presented, the information that's required," Snyder said. "It doesn't go to my personal benefit, it's actually offsetting costs of government, so people should feel comfortable with that." Recent news reports showed that Snyder's New Energy to Reinvent and Diversify Fund, or NERD Fund, is paying the $4,200 a month tab for Orr's room at the Westin Book Cadillac; the fund is also paying for Orr's flights home to see his family in Maryland on the weekends. "I think that's an appropriate use," said Snyder, who was speaking to reporters after addressing the Inforum Center for Leadership's 2013 unveiling of the Michigan Women's Leadership Index. Typically those types of expenses would be covered by the employer, Snyder said, so using the NERD Fund for the expenses is saving the city from paying that expense. The fund's goal is to "promote charitable causes, including lessening the financial burdens of government in the state of Michigan." Federal tax records show the NERD Fund took in $368,000 in 2012, down from the $1.3 million it received in 2011. It had total expenses of $590,453 last year, compared with spending of $865,830 in 2011. Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mark Schauer jumped on the news, issuing a statement again calling for transparency with this fund. "Michigan taxpayers deserve a full and accurate accounting of Mr. Orr's compensation, including travel, lodging, and security spending," Schauer said in the statement. "More importantly, taxpayers deserve to know which individuals and special interests are trying to curry favor with Mr. Orr during during the bankruptcy process by donating to Gov. Snyder's secretive NERD Fund." Chris Gautz: 1-517-403-4403, firstname.lastname@example.com. Twitter: @chrisgautz Related Content:

The show in question is about Tuvan throat singing. I thought the consulate might consider underwriting the program.

Choirs: Top 20 Lists and some thoughts about the use of space in holiday concerts
Gramophone Magazine's List of the Top 20 choral ensembles of the world is causing controversy because so many of the choirs that make the cut are British -- and all the top five are British choirs. None are American. The magazine defends itself in this interesting Q&A between Gramophone editor James Inverne and NPR writer Thomas Huizenga and published a sycophantic piece by choral composer Eric Whitacre (pictured) about why British choirs are the best in the world.Here's my two cents worth: Top 20 (or Top 10 or Top 100 or Top whatever) … [Read more...]

A Tempest, A Train and A Triple Lutz
A fab weekend of eclectic arts activities to summarize today...1. Cutting Ball Theatre's production of The Tempest: Rob Melrose is one of the Bay Area's more thoughtful and creative directors, but on occasion he overthinks things. This is the case with his production of Shakespeare's magical late play, The Tempest. The director tries to impose an uber-Jungian reading on the fantasy which destroys all the magic. The central conceit is that the entire play takes place in Prospero's head, with all the characters being embodied by three actors. The … [Read more...]

It's a sad but all too common thing when an artist shares their experiences with a journalist for an article and then their comments don't actually make it into the published story.Most interviewees understand that journalists do a lot more reporting than can possibly be used in the average piece.

Watched an extraordinary and highly improbable five-minute animated film on YouTube yesterday which succinctly captures the disjunct between the non-profit arts funding model and the general public's understanding of the economics involved in creating non-commerical art in this country.I say "improbable" because the tongue-in-cheek film, entitled "Explaining an Arts NonProfit," takes the form of a conversation between two saccharine-cute, tubby, panda-bear-like characters with tinny computer-processed voices. It sounds like an exchange out of a … [Read more...]
