...provide housing—ironically enough—or people pushed out of Cambridge by Harvard’s expansion. Originally owned by HUD, the Section-8 housing is now owned by three churches and a synagogue: St. Anthony’s Roman Catholic Church, St. Gabriel??s Roman Catholic Church, the United Methodist Church of Allston, and Kadimah Toras-Moshe. According to State Representative Michael Moran, who says he has many friends who grew up in Charlesview, the apartments are “the perfect model for affordable housing networks.”At a meeting...
...video for “Crooked Teeth” despite this critical setback, says a lot about the quality of the video. Director Ace Norton has accomplished something here: his combination of claymation and stop-motion video, a quirky homage to Steven Johnson’s video for Peter Gabriel??s “Sledgehammer,” represents yet another good directorial gamble by the boys of Death Cab for Cutie. Well-known for selecting unheard-of directors, Ben Gibbard and company have struck gold with Norton, who manages to channel Nick Park (“Wallace...

Despite the brave stand of Gabriel??s Realworld label, and its American counterpart Putumayo, this prediction has yet to be fulfilled (though the stagnation theory still holds true). Anyone who saw Habib Koité and Thomas Mapfumo, two giants of African music, perform to a hugely appreciative crowd in the wood-panelled decorum of Sanders theater will know that this...
