At only eight songs, discounting three eponymous interludes, the latest release from Austin-based Okkervil River could easily come off as thin, but each song in this 8-pack is jam packed with meticulous arrangements and brilliantly crafted lyrics.

The R.Kelly Trial: Sparkle takes the stand:
2008-05-23 20:30:00 After watching the sex tape on opening day, the defense is sticking to their story that that is not R. Kelly on the sex tape and the woman shown is not the niece of R&B singer Sparkle who would have been around 13 or 14 at the time the tape was made. Although the girl is denying it was her as well, four key witnesses have identified her as the victim in the sex tape including her best friend at the time and Sparkle, who got into a spat with the defense attorney yesterday: Check out the play by play below:The loud bickering began when Genson asked if someone could have doctored the illicit video to make it appear as if Kelly were paying a young girl to perform various sex acts. Edwards, who wore cosmetic glitter under her left eye to provide her trademark ?sparkle,? gave a snide smile.?I know my family,? she said. ?I know them. Trust me.??And so you know and believe your [relative] took money from Robert Kelly and then had sex with him, which is on that tape?? Genson asked. ?That...

Chris Rock Takes The Stand
2008-04-05 00:59:00 A surly Chris Rock took the stand in the racketeering trial of California private eye to the stars, Anthony Pellicano. Pellicano is on trial for racketeering and conspiracy, wiretapping, witness tampering, identity theft and destruction of evidence. He is serving as his own attorney. Chris Rock dropped the comedy, and allegedly was unthrilled to be called to the stand. He testified that he hired Pellicano to get the goods on a woman claiming to be pregnant with his kid. That happens to Chris a lot. The woman in question, Monika Zsibrita, also claimed that Rock had assaulted her. A DNA test, and an investigation, rendered both claims invalid. Chris reportedly had trouble speaking up and was terse on the stand. "So, you know that you believe that you didn't do anything wrong?" Mr. Hummel [the district attorney] asked about the assault allegations. "I don't believe it," Rock replied. "I'm here as a free man... I didn't do anything wrong." Rock also denied knowing of the method...
New York 2008: Fuel Vapor technologies al on the stand
2008-03-23 01:29:00 click to enlargeBack in August, the Canadian company Fuel Vapor Technologies was one of the original teams announced as participants in the Automotive X Prize. In New York this week, a version of the company's entry vehicle, known as the alé, was on display during the announcement. Obviously designed for the alternative class - the three wheels give that away - the alé has been in development for two years and the prototype that uses a proprietary fuel vapor system and a standard internal combustion engine that has already moved the alé around at 92 mpg. Getting those extra eight or nine mpg to meet the X Prize's 100 mpge requirement shouldn't be too hard, as FVT plans on adding a series hybrid powertrain to the alé that will allow the car to use the batteries for most of the miles it covers. Once the X Prize is over, FVT plans on hand-building 100-200 vehicles a year and then possibly partnering with another company to make 10,000 units per year.Gallery: New ...
Britney?s Assistant Used a Hammer to End the Stand-Off
2008-01-04 23:00:00 Behold the eerie image of Britney Spears being wheeled away to the hospital last night. Now, it's been revealed by Page Six that when Britney locked herself in the master bathroom with Jayden James after drinking vodka, her assistant, Alli Sims, eventually had to break the door down with a hammer. At that point, Sims telephoned for emergency help and the rest is...well, all over the Internet, really. Kevin Federline's recent reported flirtations with Paris Hilton reportedly also led to Britney's emotional break-down. The Page Six source revealed, "She is mad that he would get involved with her 'so called' friend." Meanwhile, Britney's parents are naturally distraught over the situation, with a tearful Lynn Spears telling Access Hollywood over the phone, "Just say prayers," in reference to her ailing daughter. With mother Lynn and sister, Jamie Lynn laying low in their home in Kentwood, La. after the announcement of Jamie Lynn's pregnancy, it was Britney's father and ...

It doesn't make sense to cop out to a life sentence and that's exactly what he'll get. While the hip hop crowd were so busy jocking Meech no one noticed that neither he nor is brother can be located at Federal Bureau of Prisons.

Will I Ever Learn? The Stand Back Routine
2007-10-25 13:09:00 As a writer there are many lessons you learn over time. Aside from things like grammar and following submission rules and a few other things, a lot of the items you have to know about concerning how to write can be somewhat fluid and dependent on the individual. Some revelations just have to come to you, sort to speak.Though it took me a while, there's one lesson that has proven itself time after time after time. Even so, I stupidly still find myself every once in a while ignoring it. And it has comes back to bite me every single time I have ignored it. For the sake of this post, I guess I will call it the Stand Back Routine. (If any of you have a better name, do share! This one is somewhat of a mouthful.) :PThe Stand Back Routine is something I try to do with every work I create. Once I've written it and edited it once or twice, I stand back, give the short story a week or two, if a novel, a month or more, then once my brain's buffer has dumped, I can do a final edit and...

Lou was supposed to be crazy, we were supposed to suck, and we fans were supposed to slog through the summer until the Bears play their frist game on September 9. Instead, we find ourselves in the middle of August, and, despite playing with a suckitude of epic proportions lo these past two weeks, we are miraculously one 1.5 games behind a Milwaukee team that seems ready to hand the division over to whoever can get Joe Morgan off their bandwagon. In the last three weeks, we've lost Soriano, Ramirez, Pagan, Ward, Floyd and DLee (to a slump). We've had to whether Ronny Cedeno, Matt Murton, and the apparent re-injury of Kerry Wood (okay, that's probably not true, but it I needed a third thing and it adds to the drama.

The Standells - Dirty Water (1966)
2007-07-30 08:30:00 The Standells made number 11 in 1966 with "Dirty Water," an archetypal garage rock hit with its Stonesish riff, lecherous vocal, and combination of raunchy guitar and organ. While they never again reached the Top Forty, they cut a number of strong, similar tunes in the 1966-67 era that have belated been recognized as '60s punk classics. "Garage rock" may not have been a really accurate term for them in the first place, as the production on their best material was full and polished, with some imaginative touches of period psychedelia and pop. The Los Angeles band were actually hardly typical of the young suburban outfits across America who took their raw garage sound onto obscure singles recorded in small studios. They'd been playing L.A. clubs since the early '60s, with a repertoire that mostly consisted of covers of pre-Beatle rock hits. Drummer (and eventual lead singer) Dick Dodd had been a Mouseketeer on television, organist Larry Tamblyn was the brother of noted film actor R...

Bush To Iraq: Israel Is The Standard
2007-07-05 19:26:00 It looks as if the President of the United States has finally declared a future goal for the Iraqi people. Although it is doubtful that the violence in the region would end (as that would be like asking for taxes to disappear) Bush seems to have settled upon what a future Iraq should look like.And Israel is its name-o.(IndyStar.com) President Bush held up Israel as a model for defining success in Iraq on Thursday, saying the U.S. goal there is not to eliminate attacks but to enable a democracy that can function despite violence. With his Iraq policies under increasing fire from the American public and lawmakers from both parties, Bush went to the U.S. Naval War College here to declare progress. As the president pleaded for patience, his top national security aide went to Capitol Hill to meet with Republican critics.Despite the fact that Israel has its own problems regarding terrorism, this has not stopped the nation from thriving in a hostile region.

Inside the Standings of Baseball [Michael Vinciguerra]
2007-06-12 20:01:00 After reviewing the MLB standings to this point, some wacky (and not so wacky) turn of events may unfold.NL East: My favorite division because its where I can find my Braves. As bad as the Mets and Braves are both doing, the Braves have maintained pace with the Mets and are only a mere 2 games behind them. With the Mets outfielders injured, the Mets should continue to struggle, making it possible for the Braves to recapture first place. I always forget the names of the other three teams in that division, but for the sake of honorable mention, the Phillies have become hot as of late.NL Central: The Brewers surprised many, including myself, this year. Now that they are in the driver's seat with a comfortable lead in the Central, I expect them to win that division without worries. The only team I could see making the race interesting is the Cubs, but they need to at least get to .500.NL West: Perhaps the hardest division to select a clear-cut winner, the NL West is completely up for ...

Dog Breeds ? the Standard Poodle
2007-05-05 21:21:00 When many people think of the poodle, it is the tiny toy poodle that comes to mind. This tiny dog has a much larger cousin, however, and the standard poodle is a loyal, loving and highly intelligent dog.The standard poodle is also known for being a very good watch dog, and a dog that is good with both people and pets. Since they are both large and high energy, they do need lots of space to run, and regular exercise is important to both their physical and their mental well being.At between 22 and 27 inches in height at the shoulder and carrying a weight of between 45 and 70 pounds, the standard poodle dwarfs its smaller relative. This large size makes the standard poodle a great choice for lovers of big dogs.Since the standard poodle is somewhat large in stature, owners should be on the lookout for signs of hip dysplasia, a common problem in large breed dogs. The breed is also known to suffer from ear infections and stifle problems, and it is important for new standard poodle own...

Planning the stand
2007-03-08 15:34:00 Yesterday Euan went to see a cooper in Aidrie to pick up our barrels. I wanted to have really large planters on the stand with tripod frames and ivy growing up them.Whisky barrels seemed to be the obvious solution - unfortunately while they would have all been delighted to provide them, none of the whisky distilleries round here had any in stock.Fortunately the cooper in Airdrie did and he cut them up for us to order. They are fabulous - chunky, weathered, big enough to put planting in, it is a pity we can't show off their very scenic purple bottoms. We have left them outside to get rid of the smell - they are very alcoholic. My car smells like a wild party in Inverness.I was paranoid doing deliveries this morning that people would think I had taken to morning tippling on my way to the shops. |
