...shows up at the WHRB studio in Pennypacker basement to “pull,” or choose the records for his show. Chris has already pulled his earlier in the day and they wait, in order, in a crate on the floor of the Record Hospital (RH) lounge. The lounge overflows with surprisingly well-organized CDs and variously-sized vinyls of mostly obscure bands. Jim pulls out a few and shows me the covers, which have little comment notes all over them; each rock DJ adds his/her own little stick-on critiques for the reference of future rock...
When their time ends, Jim and Chris hand over the show to the next DJ who will take over until 3:30 a.m. Everyone agrees that the 3:30 a.m. - 5:00 a.m. shift is the toughest. RH saves that one for the brand new DJs, those freshly graduated from the comp. At 5:00 am, the Classical department will take over the air—but the night belongs to rock and roll...
...site of the old Roman Forum, the view follows the city's progress, from the medieval and Renaissance Vieux Lyons on the banks of the Saône to the narrow 17th and 18th century Presqu'île, or peninsula, between the Saône and the Rhône. On the left is the smaller hill of Croix-Rousse, the 19th century silk worker's center, and beyond the Rhône the 20th century business district of Part-Dieu...
...immaterial as the pair attempts to uncover a conspiracy involving the Triad organized crime syndicate. Trailers show Chan's self-choreographed, playfully frenetic fight scenes will provide eye candy, aided by the gorgeous and acrobatic Zhang Ziyi (last seen in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon). The other half of RH's success was the comedic pairing, and the chemistry between the detectives. Chan and his self-effacing humor and ample physical comedy skills play well off Tucker's lanky antics and brash American swagger as they both exploit the cultural differences in their partnership. If there is a guaranteed profit-maker...
...pointed out that the Basques, who speak a non-Indo-European language amid a sea of Indo-European ones, lack the genetic markers that would indicate they have been in Europe longer than their French and Spanish neighbors (though there are markers - such as a much higher frequency of RH-negative blood types - that point to their distinctiveness). And most speakers of Hungarian, a Finno-Ugric language surrounded by Indo-European tongues, don't appear genetically much different from their Slavic neighbors...
