Lolla '09 review: Fleet Foxes
2009-08-08 05:59:00 5 p.m. PlayStation StageFleet Foxes are one of the few bands that work on any stage, from dim clubs to Friday's venue -- a sprawling festival. The Foxes' hour-long set was familiar to anyone who has seen them before, drawing largely from their "Sun Giant" EP and self-titled debut LP. As always, they sounded pristine -- broad, majestic and beautiful, the kind of soundtrack you'd want at the top of the Rockies, but which sounds equally perfect in a soggy Grant Park. Their four-part harmonies and rustic jangle filled the space flawlessly. And a note to non-meat eaters: singer Robin Pecknold plugged the Chicago Diner, in Boys Town, as "the best vegan place in the world." So there.Find more in...

Mercedes-Benz Fleet Testing Fuel Cell Bus
2009-03-13 16:43:00 While busses are great when you live in the city and want to keep the number of vehicles on the road as low as possible, they require a lot of power to move and are run almost non-stop. Obviously this leaves room for improvements and we have seen many in the past year or two. Recently, Mercedes-Benz offered another solution to public transportation in the form of a Fuel Cell Hybrid bus.

Sweeney Todd The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street Deluxe - Complete Edition [SO
2008-05-25 17:09:00 Stephen Sondheim's Grand-Guignol blend of opera and musical theater is a perfect match for director Tim Burton's gothic sensibility. The result of their encounter is a superb screen musical that, despite early fears from the show's fans, preserves most of the score ("The Ballad of Sweeney Todd" being the most egregious loss) and, perhaps even more importantly, its spirit (regular Sondheim orchestrator Jonathan Tunick did the new arrangements). And yes, Johnny Depp can sing. Granted, singing in a movie is easier than it is onstage, but still, Depp is at ease with the material, if a little thin-voiced. Helena Bonham Carter is a bit more problematic as Mrs. Lovett (there's a reason this character has been played by the likes of Angela Lansbury and Patti LuPone on stage) and her take on "The Worst Pies in London" tries hard but lacks gleeful gusto (she fares better on "By the Sea"). More convincing are Sacha Baron Cohen, appropriately outlandish as Pirelli ("The Contest"), Jayne Wis...

Él vuelve a Londres más viejo y más pirado años después, su antigua vecina de actitud un poco amoral le dice que su esposa se envenenó y ahora el juez malvado ha adoptado a su rubia hija. Él jura venganza y comienza a matar gente que ella convierte en meat pies.

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street
2008-05-20 23:45:00 Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet StreetPlotEarly 19th-century London. Barber Benjamin Barker (Depp) is transported to a penal colony by Judge Turpin (Rickman), who wants Barker?s wife. Fifteen years later, Barker returns under the guise of Sweeney Todd, moves into his old room above Mrs. Lovett?s (Bonham Carter) pie shop and starts plotting his bloody revenge...ReviewEverybody knows the story of Sweeney Todd, the barber who cut his customers? throats and turned the corpses over to his criminal partner Mrs. Lovett to be cooked up in meat pies. Debate persists as to whether he was an actual historical character, but the Demon Barber Of Fleet Street has been prominent in our national gallery of horrors since the middle of the 19th century.The usual version of the tale - as enshrined in Victorian penny dreadfuls, sensationalist theatre and a ramshackle but wonderful 1936 vehicle for aptly named British horror star Tod Slaughter - is all about crime. Sweeney Todd?s methods may be ...

UPS places largest ever order for fleet of green trucks
2008-05-15 03:31:00 UPS, a company which already has twenty-five hybrid diesel electric commercial vehicles in operation, is expanding its fleet of green vehicles by ordering an additional two-hundred hybrid electric vehicles and three-hundred compressed natural gas vehicles from Daimler's Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation (FCCC). This order will more than double Daimler's active fleet of commercial hybrids, as the German company currently has over one-hundred-sixty in service. We wonder if the two-million miles of reliable service that FedEx was able to achieve from its hybrid trucks was enough to persuade UPS into making this large order. The FCCC truck is powered by a diesel engine along with an electric motor. While the forty percent improvement in fuel mileage from this setup likely makes the most important difference to UPS, we can also thank the vehicles for their ninety percent reduction in emissions. Therefore, UPS estimates a savings of 176,000 gallons of fuel annually along with 1.78...

Yankee response in the hemisphere: the Fourth Fleet of intervention
2008-05-11 05:07:00 IT was created in 1943 to fight Nazi submarines and protect shipping during World War II. It was deactivated as unnecessary in 1950. The Southern Command was meeting the needs of United States hegemony in our region. However, it has been reborn in recent days, after 48 years, and its interventionist purposes do not need to be demonstrated. The military officials themselves, in their statements, are making that known naturally, spontaneously and even discreetly. The problems of food prices, energy, unequal trade, an economic recession in the market most important for their products, inflation, climate change and investments required for their consumerist dreams, are weighing down and consuming the time and energy of the leaders and the led. The real case is that the decision to reestablish the Fourth Fleet was announced in the first week of April, almost a month after Ecuador?s territory was attacked with bombs and U.S. technology and, by the latter?s pressure, killing and injuring...

After a couple of months when you have pinned your name everywhere in the indie music business, come out with the REAL deal. And Fleet Foxes have followed my lead on this (oh, really?). Their earlier EP was simply brilliant and gained a lot of credits for them. They come from Seattle (no, not the Seattle you have know from the early 90s) and they have brought us some '70s pop thing a.k.a. baroque harmonic pop jams, according to themselves. It’s early in their courier so all they have is this MySpace page where all they ever claim to be is some guys who happen to play music for fun and are into all kinds of music. But Skye, Robin, Nicholas, Casey, and Christian seem to be a little more than just-for-fun players. As I have mentioned in their EP review earlier, they are pretty good at vocal harmonies and the music sounds so old-school and mature. Their influences...

NorthStar Moving powers their fleet with biodiesel
2008-04-29 01:02:00 California's NorthStar Moving Corporation has just converted all of its trucks to run on biodiesel fuel. All of the fuel used by the moving and storage company will now be veggie-based. Additionally, their fleet of vehicles has also been fitted with battery-powered rear lift gates as opposed to hydraulic, meaning that the engine does not need to idle for extended periods. NorthStar reportedly has tried greening other aspects of their operation. All of their boxes and stationery are made from recycled material and are reused when possible. The company claims that skylights and windows are used for natural lighting when possible and their warehouses are well-insulated. We applaud these efforts, of course, especially the use of biodiesel. With diesel prices as high as they are, we wonder what impact biodiesel may have on the market, considering that cost is often a driving factor when it comes to our energy needs.Press Release:California's premier full service moving and storage comp... |
