Beatles Medley "A bunch of Liverpudlians Londoners (mostly elderly), on the street, singing various Beatles songs, strung together with some musical backing added. From the "James Paul McCartney" TV Special Broadcast: April 16th 1973."

Notice the diet(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ana_Carolina_Reston Ana Carolina Reston Macan (1985 – November 14, 2006) was a Brazilian model. She was born to a middle class family in Jundiai, on the outskirts of São Paulo. Reston began her modeling career at the age of 13 after winning a local beauty contest in her hometown. She was represented by reknowned modeling agencies such as Ford, Elite and L'Equipe in countries such as China, Turkey, Mexico, and Japan, including prestigious ad campaigns such as Giorgio Armani. She weighed only 40 kilograms (88 lbs.) and had been hospitalized since October 25 for kidney malfunction due to anorexia nervosa and bulimia, which included a diet of only eating apples and tomatoes. Her condition became more serious and deteriorated into generalized infection that led to her death at the age of 21. At the time of death she weighed just over 36 kilograms (80 pounds). She was the second anorexic model reported to have died in 2006. Luisel Ramos, 22, suffered a heart attack in August after living on lettuce leaves and Diet Coke for three months.

Did he have much to say?

Ileck is 25. Sad nonetheless...

The website is for the 28 year old Ana Carolina da Fonseca. I'm thinking that it's a different model altogether.

You're probably thinking of "666". See the book of Revelation. Nope, Revelation doesn't bother me. I'm thinking of something more horrific: 777 (check: Aleister Crowley).

He's got 777 in his name!

Blueport? Four minutes into it and don't notice it yet. Can you say approx when?

That's interesting to hear. At this store, they had, for example, 4 Japanese pressings of On The Corner (with obi) displayed in the front rack that I'd never seen there before. I'm thinking maybe because D/FW airport is a hub -

Took advantage of their 33% sale this afternoon. Too many to list here, but I did save $155.55 - woo-hoo! The Trikont titles that I had my eyes on were gone tho Cali's right! I noticed stuff at the store that I hadn't seen before the sale. Is stuff being trucked in from other areas in order to spread it out or something? There was a customer at the counter nickle and diming about the price of his purchase I kinda thought that there might be some confusion from those who are innumerate when it comes to percentages off - especially when Tower does those "today only" 10% extra off discounts. Anyway, still plenty of jazz and classical left - actually, some of those fixtures that they have for sale looked pretty good... They were even selling a nice wall display that looked like one of those long wall TVs, but it had a poster of one of the recent ECM covers inside - changeable with your own artwork I think. Don't forget, your local store may be selling empty jewel and DVD cases (single, dual and four disc) for real cheeeeeeep!

Feel bad for him too. Eventually, it will get down to the bones, but I think most of us may be just waiting for all the fat to be cut off first.

Oh, "still", eh? Ok, I hadn't been since the beginnings of the 10% off, so I didn't even know that they were at 30%. Should go tomorrow I suppose. Thanks!

You should just make or add your own. Nearly always the best way to handle such things I think.

Al, What was the percentage off at the Dallas store? Thanks!

Yeah, if you check near the back of the book, it states that G4s won't produce the audio. Bummer...Anyway, I'll be upgrading soon.

It's custom. Probably not much use for it with the general public.

Research tells me that the audio is generative only on G5 Macs and Windows PCs.

Man! 52 inch display! Hell yeah! I'm gonna reinstall this baby 'cause I know that sound is involved. I've got about 8 iTunes visualizers, but none move as slow as this. Sometimes I use software that does close to the same thing as this Eno thing, but it uses any video that you care to use. I have a video folder of things that I've done and I have the software randomly choosing excerpts from it in order to create new pix that move. They go from highly pixelated images to clear multiple scenes:

It's nice. A couple of things about it: It's too bad that it can't be run as something separate on your DVD player. It is software for your computer only, so the larger your monitor, the better. Also, after I got it, I thought that the music would be generative as well, but there isn't any music except if you simultaneously play the enclosed mp3 (31m:16s). So I just run my own program. There are 5 "speeds": slow to extremely slow On the quickest speed, this is the difference after 5 minutes: You can still see traces of the left image in the right one. The phrase "77 Million Paintings" is a bit misleading because there are not 77 million separate pictures, but a figured potential for that many through overlaps. Rod (now that I've seen the explanation at the above website, one should know that the images may not change at the rate shown. I'm guessing that it may have to do with either a faster computer that was used or it's for a quicker demonstration) Also: I'm still getting the impression (from the website and some reviews) that there is suppose to be sound - generative even - but I'll be damned if I can figure out how to do it.

Hey! Love Is Brew. (with apologies to the Mauriat estate and our Japanese friends). Do what cha wanna today - that's what my wife's doing today on her birthday. Rod

Well, that's the way that I read this statement of his: "I have had one previous opportunity to serve my country in a meaningful way - at 8:05 one morning in 2002 I passed Donald Rumsfeld on Delaware Avenue and I was acutely aware that slashing his throat would spare the lives of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of innocent people. I had a knife clenched in my hand, and there were no bodyguards visible; to my deep shame I hesitated, and the moment was past..."
