...satire, the satire part of which is more satisfying than the comic. As a portrait of pre-recession, debt-financed, image-obsessed Los Angeles, Death By Leisure is spot-on in its details, though the British writer succeeds in making the city sound like the worst place in America, full of status-obsessed grifters like himself. Whether it's sneaking into Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch or finagling his way into a studio exec bash, Ayres simultaneously spits on and revels in the all-consuming shallowness of his time and place: gargantuan SUV's, gated communities, multi-million dollar homes...
...music scene like in Portland? A lot of people are moving here, artists are moving here because by and large it's the cheapest city. It's incredible. I've lived here since 2000 which is when I starting making my first record and was making music full time. There's a big music scene and of course we have all the coffee shops. I love it. I have no plans on leaving. We have pretty dreary weather in the wintertime which draws people indoors to make music...
...presence felt.”Harvard made 21 free throws, double the number of its opponent’s attempts from the line, but the Crimson made only four three-pointers, going zero-for-six from behind the arc in the second half.

It was Amaker’s squad, however, that came out hot opening the second half. Down 51-35 going into the intermission, Harvard went...
...team turned the ball over 19 times in Friday night’s win and 20 in Saturday night’s loss. But it was the 16 first-half turnovers in Saturday’s game that spelled disaster for Harvard. The Lions’ stifling full-court pressure forced sloppy play from Crimson guards and post players alike. Harvard’s porous fast-break defense didn’t help its cause, as Columbia was able to convert easy buckets and set up its press. During one three-minute stretch early on, the Crimson turned the ball...
...Nagyvary believes this evidence upends the widespread belief among instrument makers that only the strongest wood can produce a lush, full sound. According to Nagyvary, the opposite is true. He also says it casts doubt on the working hypothesis of many scientists that Stradivari worked during Europe's "little ice age" of the 15th-17th centuries, in which low summer temperatures led to slow but uniform growth in the Spruce trees used for instruments, and that the wood's uniform density explains the instruments' high quality of sound. Last year, researchers in The Netherlands and the U.S. used medical imaging...
