The Killer Crush: The Horror Of Teen Girls, From Columbiners To Beliebers
In eighth grade, Mary liked Leonardo DiCaprio, Emily liked Paul McCartney, and I liked Gavin Rossdale. We probably didn't say liked, though, or even loved. We were obsessed, we were crazy, we swooned, we fantasized. We liked the mall, and love was a word for grandmothers on the telephone: they loved us, they hoped to see us soon. The feelings we had were much more gigantic and upsetting. Crush was good. It implied force, and pain, and the possibility that we might not make it out the other side intact.
At the time, I was pretty sure I had every picture of Gavin Rossdale ever published taped [...]

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Staff Reviews Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Bose® Computer MusicMonitor® by Tara W. Stylish and super-compact, the Bose® Computer MusicMonitor® speakers continue the company's tradition of creating high-quality sound from gear that can fit into small spaces. Enjoy high-impact sound from your computer or laptop with this compact system, or connect it to your iPod® or iPad® to bring movies, music, and even Angry Birds™ sound effects to life. The two-speaker system employs proprietary Bose technology to produce a wide, clear soundstage from very small speakers. You'll hear crisp, accurate highs and mids, and rich bass, and you'll still have plenty of desktop space for working. Setup is extremely simple, too — one proprietary cable connects the speakers to each other, another connects to your source, and the AC power cord plugs into a wall outlet. Use buttons on the side of one speaker or the included remote to adjust volume. From the review Bose Computer MusicMonitor speakers "The speakers are so small that they'd be great for a portable-but-high-quality music system. I'd travel with them because the speakers would be easy to pack in a bag or suitcase, and they'd be perfect to set up in a hotel room with my laptop or iPad®. I'd even be tempted to connect them to the TV in the hotel room for better sound playback there, too."

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Overview: The Bose Computer MusicMonitor powered speakers utilize proprietary technologies to deliver surprisingly full-range sound with a wide sound stage for such small speakers. The system's understated, space-saving design fits nicely almost anywhere in your home. The Bose Computer MusicMonitor is ideal as a laptop, PC, and portable audio powered speaker. The elegant brushed aluminum enclosures complement almost any workspace. In addition to the volume and power controls located on the right speaker, the Bose Computer MusicMonitor comes with an IR remote control for added convenience. The Bose Computer MusicMonitor powered speakers is a two-piece solution offering exceptional performance, simplicity, and value for your desktop listening area. Elegant Compact Design: The Bose Computer MusicMonitor powered speakers are extremely compact and help to free up your valuable desktop space. Each speaker enclosure features either a brushed aluminum or black finish. Bose Proprietary Technologies: The unexpected full-range range sound generated from this compact two-piece powered speaker system is the result of Bose amplifier technology, proprietary acoustic design, highly efficient neodymium speakers, and Bose digital signal processing. The Bose Computer MusicMonitor powered speaker system lets you enjoy the fullness and detail you may have been missing from your favorite downloads and Internet radio. Bose Amplifiers: Proprietary amplifiers are smaller, lighter and more efficient than traditional linear amplifiers to help keep speakers small yet powerful. Bose DSP: Active electronic equalization balances low, mid, and high frequencies for more natural tone and clarity. Proprietary Acoustic Design: Proprietary acoustic design features dual internal opposing passive radiators for unusually deep, powerful low tones from a very small multimedia speaker system. Highly Efficient Neodymium Speakers: High output from small speakers featuring thin but powerful neodymium transducers with 10x the magnetic energy density of conventional speaker magnets. Power & Volume Controls: The Bose Computer MusicMonitor powered speaker system features power and volume control on the right speaker. An IR remote control is also provided for wireless operation of the system's power & volume functions. One Cable Connection: The Bose Computer MusicMonitor requires only one cable connection between the powered speaker system and your computer or other audio source. The right speaker features a 3.5mm audio input and includes a 6' stereo audio minijack cable to connect to your computer or other audio source. Note: The left speaker features an attached 6' audio cable with a proprietary connector which plugs into the rear-panel proprietary port on back of the rear speaker (labeled "To Left Speaker"). Magnetically Shielded: The Bose Computer MusicMonitor powered speakers are magnetically shielded to prevent monitor interference or damage. Placement: The size and shape of the speakers make it easy to position them directly next to your computer. For proper performance, place the right speaker to the right and the left speaker to the left of your computer. Make sure there is equal distance on either size. The speaker should be placed no more than 18'' to 36" apart. This will provide an accurate sound stage. AC Power Supply: The Bose Computer MusicMonitor power speaker system operates off of standard household AC current using the supplied AC power adapter and AC cord. The AC power adapter plugs into the back of the right speaker. Input: 100-20V ~ 50/60Hz, 1A Output: 17V - 2A Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs (what are the Labs?)

Excellent Design and Sound Quality from Bose! 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 A huge volume in a small box Written By PK, South Salem, NY on Thursday, October 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I replaced my very good and ancient Microsoft 3 piece USB (80) speakers with this Bose speakers for number of reasons: a) Better sound quality (and I am not disappointed at all) and smaller foot print, and again I am not disappointed at all. I mainly listen to classic and New Age music and I really like the sound quality. The price is high, but I believe it is worth it. I don't miss the subwoofer that I previously had with my Microsoft Speakers. Pros: Superb sound quality, small footprint. No hassle connection Cons: The speakers are connected to speaker outlet of a pc/laptop. As such, the volume control of the computer does not control the volume on speaker (directly). One needs to separately adjust the sound volume by controls (or remote) of the speakers. With USB connection (at least MS Speaker 80 did that) you could adjust the sound volume by one control, on your PC or on the speaker. If you have a laptop that you move around, that can cause unexpected very loud sound for you, be careful. 4 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 5 out of 5 BOSE AIDS MY HEARING AIDS Written By Tony, Whidbey Island, WA on Thursday, August 29, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought these speakers for TV viewing. I wear hearing aids and even though they are state-of-the-art and expensive, I was having a very difficult time with word recognition in the audio coming from our flat screen speakers. My wife suggested I take an old pair of computer speakers (inexpensive / came bundled with a past desktop PC) we had in the closet and put them by my chair. Because of their size they had to live on the small tables to my right and left. Relatively speaking the difference was stunning. It was a great improvement but there was still much lacking. The new Bose speakers are tiny (basically cubes) compared to the old ones I was using and fit perfectly on the wide oak arms of my favorite mission chair. They have a slight upward cant and aim directly at my hearing aids. Now to the sound... WOW !!! My word recognition is way up there now and I'm really enjoying the music coming from out HD viewing. High frequency to real bass, it's all there. These speakers are superb and worth every cent. You get what you pay for and Bose delivered! Pros: Great sound Cons: None 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Bose Computer Music Monitor Written By Rob P, Moyie Springs, ID on Wednesday, June 12, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Overall, for its size, this is a pretty good compact system, for utilizing digital music files from a computer, ( I've pared mine with a MacBook Pro 13" laptop ). There are other computer music monitor speakers , some the same size, a few smaller, and a few a little larger, but none seem to approach the sound quality that these Bose nits have as their own unique capability. Altho they do seem to lack a little base, what can one expect, form such small speakers, without a dedicated separate powered subwoofer? Pros: Match the finish of the MacBook pro series laptop computers as if they were made to pair with them. Best sounding speakers of their relative size. So, small they could be hauled along with your laptop! Cons: Not as much bass as a separate powered subwoofer, but better than anyone else's small computer speakers, by far! 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Very satisfied. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Fantastic Sound Written By CG, Baltimore, MD on Monday, October 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Is it FIOS. WOW. I have been visiting Crutchfield site and I kept putting off buying these computer speakers. I have a very tight budget, but I decided to treat myself to a early birthday gift. I was so amaze with the clarity and loundness of these speakers. I am not going to waste your time amy further. If you have terrible sound like me when you are listening to your music from your computer I suggest to you to go for it. Again the sound is superb. Pros: Setup was very easy. Cons: I wish it was battery operated but I'm fine with the way these speakers were made. 12 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 WoW!! LOUD SOUND!! Written By JimmyBlue, WW on Monday, September 17, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Written By Wilfred, San Juan, PR on Friday, August 24, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Elegant compact speakers with excellent rich sound to go with my MacBook Pro Retina. Pros: Excellent rich sound quality. Compact. Portable. Cons: No tone control. 11 out of 11 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Awesome!! Written By SEG, Richmond, vA on Tuesday, July 31, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Incredible...exactly what I was looking for. I was in need of some speakers to connect to my new laptop. I tried the Bose Companion 2--thought the sound had too much bass. Moved to the Companion 20s--they sounded great, but were way too large for the space I had. Finally purchased the MusicMonitors from Crutchfield and they fit and sound perfect. They are small enough that I can take them on trips to listen to music or watch movies. If you are on the fence regarding these speakers. Don't be. 12 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Bose Monitors Written By DHB IL, IL on Wednesday, April 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sound from such a small package. I hooked them to the mac and playing tunes is awesome. Pros: Great sound and small package. Cons: None 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 4.75 out of 5 Written By Eric, Fort Campbell, KY on Monday, December 05, 2011 I bought these about a year and a half ago, I had high hopes for them as they were a bit pricey ($399 at that time). I was surprised by the build qualty, they're heavier than they look. The sound quality is outstanding for their size. The sound is a lot like the Bose SoundDock with a bit more refinement. They're great, however, there are a couple minor things to keep in mind. First, the auxilary cord is silver plated, for the price you would expect at least a gold plated quality cable. Second, there's no tonal controls on the remote, just volume, but that's not a bad thing as they dont really need any fine tuning. Pros: Great Bose product, high quality, big sound for their size. Cons: The price. Although the new price seems to be more fair. 16 out of 17 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 question already asked how do you connect it to your laptop or ipod? doest it come with cord? [ Tet Jan 24, 2014 ] 9 answers audio input (minijack-to-minijack cable included) [ PAUL R Jan 25, 2014 ] Yws, it was a piece of cake to connect to my MacBook Pro! It comes woth a cord, and a single pin post plug to attach to the stereoplug slot on the left side of the laptop, in the very front, just ahead of the card card slot. Just do that, and plug the speakers power cord into an electric outlet, and you're in business, as soon as you adjust the volume control to your liking! Easy peasy! I was very pleased with them, as altho they are very small, they have excellent sound out put and detail, especially for their small size and minimal power requirements.

However it did come with cord for laptop and ipod..it looks very neat and clean in pick but a little heads up..there is wire to connect 2 speakers together, wire to plug into wall and wire to connect to ipod....gets a little messy considering how small speakers are..nice quality sound but if you like bass a little weak [ Jeanna Jan 24, 2014 ] No cord with it but has the connection for a cord. The Bluetooth works very well. [ robert Jan 24, 2014 ] It's plugged into the jack on my desktop. Should be a similar output jack on iPad. Don't know about iPhone.

Verrill, of Yale College, the recent deep Ken dredging expedition oft; tjie coast; of Bhodo Wand, on the edge of the Gulf Htream, under tho auspices of the United States Fish Commission, proved the most successful over sent out by this or any other country. In ihree days more sxieeimons woro obtained than by any other expedition an as many months, Indoed, tho English expedition on the Clinlloiiger, which was at work deep sea dredging for flvo yenrs continuously, did not accomplish mpre or got ft larger collection. The dredging was done from seventy- five to one hundred and fifteen miles soutliof 3h!ek water being from one quarter to threo quarters of a mile. Tho specially constructed steamer Eish Hawk, fitted up with the most approved scientific appliances, was used, and tho expedition was under tho direct charge of Professor Baird of Washington. The ground was especially favorable. A peculiar beam trawl wos used for scraping tho bottom of the ocean. It was a net forty or fifty feet long. Tlio month of it was spread open by an oak beam fifteen feet long and six inches in diameter. Tho beam rested upon heavy iron runners, to keep tho network bag about two feet off tho bottom, Tho lower sido of the mouth of the net was formed of a receding rope, ' weighted with lead.

It was, to curtdil an elongated narrative, Kiiggcstfd that your sen-ant try to find a buyer for his «ml-tlirilling memoirs, entitled " Confessions of a Beformed Paragraphia," and donate or lend the proceeds thereof to the flub to achieve its rehabilitation. Thereupon the underwriter proceeded fo read the manuscript for the edification of those who hadn't had the pleasure of perusing it, but before the second chapter was reached I found that at least half a dozen Cockleburrs imagined that they were hit between wind and water, as it were, aud that the whole thing was onlj a malignant, insidious exposure of their little mental corns. By assuring them that I did not refer to them order was restored, but before the fifth chapter was reached the President, Col. Bungstarter, jumped to his feet and roared at me : " Whv do you dare, sir, drag my family skeletons to the light of day ? " I replied Uiat l never dragged a skeleton anywhere in my life. "What do you mean, then, sir, by vour impertinent reference to 'Old Doo- Blebung?"' "Why," I replied, "Colonel, that's a purely "imaginary character; I didn't think there was a Doozlebung in the wide world." "Didn't know Helena, Arkansaw I I let you know now, then, that my wife's sister married a Doozlebung, and I ' don't intend to sit quiotly by and hear family troubles exposed; no, not even to save the Cockleburr Olub from tho dengue." Further reading of tho confession had to cease, for it was evident that there wasn't a man in the room but was certain that portions of tho manuscript referred directly to him. Vonly, tho way of the paragrapher is hard. As it was unanimously resolved that tho privato peccadilloes and failings of the members of the club should not be used as a fulcrum to boost tho financial condition thereof, wo had to cast about for some other means to accelerate the velocity of the air currents. Whereupon the undersigned, piqued at tho unceremonious manner in which his cherished literary effort had been sat down on, suggested that somo one else try his hand at the bellows for a wind- ralsir. After considerable discussion it was deeided that, whereas, it would take too long to write a novel, or anything else, single-handed; ond, whereas, that all were equally implicated in the affair; miA, whereas, that we possessed abundant raw material—of the rawest kind, too—for tho venture: and, whereas, that time, aud landlords wait for no man, it won unanimously J' ro'.i'ffl, That tho membors of this clnb ctu'u write ono chapter, to tho boat of his ability, nd According to liis own atyle nn^ Mb cob- cejt inn of tho exigencies of tho caso.

The elephant soemed to get tired first, and, just as the first f-taiak of dawn began to show itself iu tho sky, he turned round and walked leisurely away. For a minute or two I heardhim crashing among tho thickets, and then all was quiet again, as if ho'd gone right away, "Now," thought I, "is my time to decamp, too," iuid down the treo I slipped as nimbly an an acrobat. But I soon found that I'd been reckoning without my host, for I had hardly touched the ground when thero eame a crash like fifty mad bulls charging through as many glass houses, and out from tho thicket, with his great white tusks leveled at me like bayonets, camo my friend, fho elephant, who had been on the watoh for mo all tho time I Whether I should have, run, or stood my ground, and how I should havo fared in either case, can never be known now, for just at that moment my foot slipped, aud down I camo close to tho true. The next moment there was a smash as it two trains had run into each other, and I made sure that I was knocked into a hundred pieces at least, and that it was all up with me. I soon became aware, however, that I was still alive and sound, while a shrill, frightened cry overhead told me plainly that ifc was the elephant who hod got tho worst of it this lime. I scrambled lo my feet, gingerly enough, for the brnter s great fore legs were stamping ancl pound • ing like steam-hammers within arm'l length of me, and there I saw a sighl which, scared as I was, mado mo laugh till I could hardly stand. I had fallen just in time to escape tho blow of tho elephant's tusks, wliich had struck themselves so deep into the tree that he couldn't pull tliem out again; and there he was, hard and fast, hke a ship run aground. The animal's look of disgust and bewilderment at finding himself in such a fix was as good as a. play to behold; but just then I was in uo humor to stop and admire it, for I knew thafcho might break loose yet, and that if ho did it would bo all over with me. I My first impidse was to tako to my heels at once; but fche next moment I thought better of it, and decided to settle Mr. Elephant instead. I quietly pioked up and reloaded my gun (wliich had luckily escaped his notice, or ho'd have trampled it to bits), and, scrambling up into tho tree again, sent a bullet into Ins forehead, which did ite business, and left him standing bolt upright in a very picttu-esque attitude, indeed.—Tales of Tndla.

Tho author resided afc a distanco from the town, ancl was communicated with Uy telegraph concerning two or three important changes, Tlie author wished the murder of Lincol u to be narrated—not to take placo on the stage; but the manager was against this, as he waa a sensation-lover, and he, therefore, senfc a peremptory telegram to the author in these words: "The murder must bo committed in the box. Beply quickly." 'Tlio telegraph employe who received tlie message was so alarmed that, instead of forwarding it to the address, he communicated it at ohce to the Commissioner of Polico, who in his turn considered tho information of sufficient importanco to put his brethren of the police on tho qui vivo at Munich, and tho machinery of tho law was at onco put into operation to arrest the murderous conspirators.

The concept of continuum has been used in a number of contexts within electroacoustic music including Stockhausen's pulse to pitch continuum (and similar continua applied to other musical parameters). Serial composition in the studio was largely concerned with the creation of continua between sonic parameters as a means of creating new musical languages and structuring principles for compositions. Denis Smalley has introduced the concept in relation to perceptually led facets of sound in his Spectromorphological theory. Many practitioners conceive of a continuum between abstract and mimetic material.

TreePeople's Phone-a-thon 2012
TreePeople held its first annual phone-a-thon on Saturday, March 10 to raise money for our Forestry and Environmental Education programs.
We had over 80 volunteers attend to help make calls and inspire our city to support the critical work we do to grow a sustainable future. With the help of our hardworking team, we were able to raise more than $30,000!
Thank you to our generous sponsors that supported the event as well - Art's Deli, Clif Bar and Western Bagel.
We have such an remarkable community that came together to support TreePeople's vital efforts to green Los Angeles. And, we are looking forward to an even more successful phone-thon next year!
