Spring must be close when your office building issues a BULLETIN like the one I just received from the PA @ for WTC :

"You may remember that last year, The New York Audubon Society contacted us concerning the dangers migrating birds face in large metropolitan areas, specifically high rise buildings. At that time, The Society advised us that the fall migration pattern was from August through November and the spring migration pattern was from mid-March through mid-June. As mid-March is approaching, we are requesting once again that you turn off all office lights in the evening hours or, at the minimum, close the blinds. We realize this is difficult as many of you have employees who work late into the evenings and it is difficult for us too as the house keeping personnnel are cleaning the offices. However, we would appreciate it if you would ask your employees to turn off your lights once they leave for the evening. Thank You........"

- This request might also apply to the last person leaving Detroit.

Marianne Nowottny will be performing @ Tonic this Saturday @ 8:00 pm. I hope to be going.

Marianne Nowottny at 8:00pm, $10

"New Jersey teen Marianne Nowottny returns to Tonic this evening with her torchy resin voice, off-kilter harmonics and Radio Shack keyboard. Nowottny is able to glide through scale modulation seemingly effortlessly, stopping at random quarter-tones and angular intervals that are unique and hyper-personal. Her song compositions, which explore multi-layers of sound and textures, can be compared to the early electronic music experiments of John Pfeiffer or the pop- music simulations of Brian Eno. "Marianne Nowottny is a delicately balanced combination of warped teenage nihilism, otherworldly visitation and sheer joy-in-creation." - David Keenan The Wire

I am in the process of switching over the picture handling system. I'm moving all the pictures out of the database and into the filesystem. Hopefully you will not notice anything about this change (everything will work exactly as before, although theoretically a tiny bit faster.) If you do notice anything is amiss with any photos please let me know here ASAP. I'll keep the old system in place (but not operating) for several days just in case I need to switch back. Thanks.

This site may be known to some of you, but Bill said he hadn't seen Fabulous Ruins of Detroit, so I'm posting the link. It's definitely worth a look.

Can anyone with IE on Windows (or just anyone that was having these troubles) comment on the formatting on the discussion pages? Is it still bold? Otherwise screwed up? Thanks.

Just heard something on the radio about a prosecuter named Jordan trying to convince the justice department to go after promotors at "rave clubs" (are there such places?) for creating a culture which supports drug use, specifically extacy. He is arguing that they can bust them for the posession and sales of bottled water. It being "harmless and legal" on it's own but since it is needed by the drugged out, dehydrated raver it can be classified as drug paraphanalia. In addition, the report mentioned something about him also considering the baby pacifiers which are sold at the clubs as paraphanalia. (This one I do support) I didn't hear the whole report and hadn't had my cup of Typhoo so I'm a bit fuzzy on the details (what's new?) And I haven't seen anything on the net about it. So I can't claim a scoop. Dave? Jim? Heard anything about this?

I think it was last night I read Dave's iditarod post, cruelty to animals and whatnot, and it was no doubt the seed for the dream I had this morning in my sleeping bag on the floor at Rocheblave which had me harnessed to a pitbull puppy being dragged about the mundane chores of my life except the pitbull wasn't much of a mule and he had to stop and play every few minutes, and then pee on something.

anybody catch andrew weil on 60 minutes? i saw this little exchange which dovetailed nicely with my own amateurish theories. somehow i had the notion that fear/stress can be related to allergies.
