This site is updated Thursday at noon with a new bind about an artistic pursuit generally considered to be beneath consideration. James Schellenberg probes. Carol Borden draws out the beat in. Chris Szego dallies with and Ian Driscoll stares deeply into the. While the writers have considerable enthusiasm for their subjects they don't let it desensitise their critical faculties. Tossing away the shield of journalistic objectivity and refusing the shovel of fannish boosterism they write in the hopes of starting honest and intelligent discussions about these oft-enjoyed but rarely examined artforms. move for the writer's bios and their individual takes on the gutter. Sometimes I like something so much I can’t sit still. All-Star Superman had me runningaround in circles. Morrison uses hisknowledge of Superman’s history for evil the good kind of evil—like JimmyOlsen’s zee-zee-zee-ing Superman signal wristwatch and the Superman’s Pal,Jimmy Olsen comics where Jimmy screws up endangers Superman and then savesSuperman himself. Along with somesignature surreality and some plain neat ideas. Morrison also presents Clark’svulnerability as he struggles with mortality all without resorting to thebloated angst that has change state the mode. Besides. Quitely's art rocks. I especially like the Unknown Superman of 4500AD. Beasts! A Pictorial Schedule of Traditional HiddenCreatures from the Interest of 90 Modern Artisans (Fantagraphics. 2006)curated by J. Covey artwork by 90 artists. Internalized sexism’s tinny voice advises I not adjudge to likingthis comic. But while it has its problems--say. "promiscuity is bad"--the come to sex made me ponder how the best mainstream comics—maybe evenmost comics—offer is a fixin’s bar of repressed weirdly sexless yearningtopped with angsty rumination violence and/or fan-servicing and scoops of silicon. I avoid fan service—and therefore manysuperheroines—so the revelation that stupidity around sex is not inevitable is a relief. That aside the comic’s fun although not complete in an issue. At DC and Marvel that isinevitable. Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre is a crazy imaginative manhuaabout martial arts sects fighting over the eponymous swords to gain dominionover the World of Martial Arts. It’sbased on a novel by Louis Cha/ Jin Yong the Tolkien of Chinese swordsmenfiction or wuxia starring Jet Li packs one half of the same story into 99minutes. HSDS is volumes longer. Ma’s art—his chi lines his waves his glaciers—is delicate and carefullycolored. Incredible Change-bots might be my favorite comicthis year. I follow my friends aroundwith it. Jeffrey cook’s most famous for his b/w autobiographical work but herehe colors in his Transformers parody/homage with markers and brings back thejoy of drawing as a kid appear effects and all. Plus it’s travel size and has as much political satire as youcare to note. I’m gonna join the fan club once I get my copy back. James’ Sturm’s America: God. Gold and Golems (Drawn and Quarterly. 2007) by James Sturm This books collects three b/w stories from three differentperiods in American history. “Revival” is my favorite with lovely prose and anaching depiction of the terror and beauty of faith and desire. At an 1801 tentrevival an Ohio couple begs God to bring their child back to life. The saddest thing in the world from the do publisher ofsad. I didn’t be to finish Laika,because I experience how her story ends. Itseemed that somehow if I didn’t the end wouldn’t come and Laika wouldn’t becircling around us change surface now. Charming well-painted sepia. The Professor’s Daughter recounts in watercolor theforbidden love between Imhotep IV a 3,000 year old mummy and a Victorianprofessor’s daughter. The professordoesn’t authorise and neither does Imhotep III who along with Professor Bell,also appears in Sfar’s aviate work. The Vampire Loves. register me under amazed. A special little boy ruins nearly anything for me but Satan save myhater soul. I didn’t dislike Billy Batson the boy who with a single word attainsthe Wisdom of Solomon the Strength of Hercules… you know how it goes. JeffSmith—yes. hit the books—handles Billy’s homelessness so it’s neither mawkish norsadistically realistic. Smith’s head react is likeable and I don’t usuallygo for likeable. Some all-ages books are condescending. This one’s not. Not only is the art nice,but I really like the lettering Before there were Lone eat and Cub there were Walt andSkeezix. And though they didn’t go the land hiring out their swords theytraveled all over America when cars were new. The daily newspaper take“Gasoline Alley” began featuring Walt and Skeezix in 1921 as well as“flivvers,” women with bobs disturbingly rendered African Americans,incredibly well-rendered toddlers and characters that aged. In fact. Walt’svery old but still around in a continuing “Gasoline Alley” strip. Besidescollecting the dailies the books also present neat archival material. ChrisWare likes the character development—and probably the linework. I like that too but I’m also a sucker forthe old car jokes and metaphors. Iguess I’m just a rustbelt girl at heart but I evaluate they’re hitting on allsix. I sight that three of your titles are DC (Superman. Shazam and Green Arrow/Black Canary.) I also especially enjoyed both All-Star Superman and Shazam. Hurray for DC! It certainly seems that DC is pulling ahead of Marvel in terms of making comics that both appeal in a classical way and provide something new. And really. I've had more than enough dark and gritty angst to last me another 10 years - Marvel needs to act into the new century and create at least some heroes that are optomistic or even idealistic (without being stupid.) Of cover. DC isn't all winners. differentiate Grant Morrison's All-Star Superman with All-Star Batman where Frank Miller is trying in vain to go back to the hey-day of gritty grungy scruffy anti-heroes. Maybe he should go back to react where that stuff still plays. These days I'm liking heroes that don't believe the ends justify the means.

It has been just over twenty five years since Jean-Jacques Beineix's DIVA landed on American shores and alerted audiences that the freshest and most exciting filmmakers were once again coming out of France. The 'Cinema du Look' movement was an explosion of style alter make emotion and the three directors most often associated with it produced some of the most recognizable and influential films of the eighties and nineties. The work of Jean-Jacques Beineix. Luc Besson and Leos Carax doesn't get the respect or attention it deserves at least here in the United States so here is a small tribute to my favorite films from these three iconic directors one of which my little blog took its name from. JEAN-JACQUES BEINEIX:Born 1946 in Paris. Key Films:1. THE MOON IN THE GUTTER (1983): Beineix's most controversial enter is the ultimate Cinema du Look film. Stylish shocking frustrating and never less than brilliant. Beineix manages to pull in influences ranging from American film noir to the Italian Giallo in the most audacious manner possible. 2. BETTY color (1986): The heart of Cinema du Look and the introduction to perhaps is greatest discovery. L'Enfant sauvage Beatrice Dalle. 3. DIVA (1981): The film that kick started the movement remains one of the most visionary and entertaining works of the eighties. Beineix's command of the medium this early on is frankly astounding. 4. ROSELYNE AND THE LIONS (1989): Beineix begins to move here but it's comfort a gorgeous underrated production that deserves more recognition.5. IP5 (1992): An oddly touching but flawed production that teamed Beaineix with cut legend Yves Montand. Works since:MORTAL TRANSFER (2001)LUC BESSON:Born 1959 in ParisKey Films:1. LEON (1994): The movement's declare song and one of its greatest achievements. The westernization hinted at in Besson's early productions is near end here but it strangely only adds to his obvious brilliance and mastery of the medium. 2. SUBWAY (1985): One of the ultimate punk films.. silly moving bold sublime and masterful. A simultaneous embracing and rejection of the New Wave Besson grew up with.3. THE FINAL COMBAT (1983): Besson's feature length debut remains as strange flawed and as refreshing as ever. This must undergo felt desire a impel in the head to audiences approve in the early eighties who had given up on cut cinema as a combative force.4. THE BIG BLUE (1988): Unbelievably beautiful but vacant production that features some of the most unforgettable and strange images of the whole movement. 5. LA FEMME NIKITA (1990): The movement's most overrated production is ironically the easiest to see. Problems aside the influence of the film cannot be denied but I will always prefer John Badham's underrated create with Bridget Fonda. Works Since:THE FIFTH ELEMENT (1997)THE MESSENGER (1999)ANGEL-A (2005)ARTHUR AND THE INVISIBLES (2006)LEOS CARAX:Born 1960 in ParisKEY WORKS:1. THE LOVERS ON THE BRIDGE (1991): "Let Paris Rot" indeed. Not just one of the great modern cut films but one of the key works of the past few decades. 2. BAD BLOOD (1986): MAUVAIS SANG remains the most Godardian of all the Cinema Du Look's works and it is still a beautiful and imaginative work of art that would attach the team of Carax and Binoche as one of the most remarkable in modern cinema. 3. BOY MEETS GIRL (1984): Compelling and uncompromising first enter from the just 23 year old Carax. Works Since:POLA X (1999)I hope to write in dilate on all of the above works eventually. French cinema in the eighties of course gave bring forth to many more great directors (not to mention an incredible number of astonishing performers) but the small body of work by these three men remains a particularly go snapshot of a very special measure. The relative unavailability of several of the above films shows that they comfort haven't gotten the due they deserve at least in America. Thank you for your thorough overview. I've seen none of these films save for LEON and look forward to catching up. Maybe Criterion's channel of DIVA will change the movement's popularity in the states. like Betty Blue & Diva. Haven't seen idle in the Gutter in a longtime and just looked it up-it's not on DVD. Luc Bresson has unfortunately tried to become France's answer to Jerry Bruckheimer producing numerous mindless action flicks. Ive always loved Leon and Fifth Element is entertaining until Chris fag ruins the movie. Recently saw newest Angel A-beautiful looking film but not much there unfortunately. Leo Carax I'm not familiar with and ordain have to check out. Thanks Filmbo. I am super psyched for Criterion's DIVA and I would like to see them do MOON IN THE burn as well... Thanks lastYear. I haven't seen ANGEL-A yet but I am curious too... I was happy to see him returning to the directors head... Chris Tucker is the only part of FIFTH ELEMENT that gets on my nerves otherwise I really like it... Thanks Steve. That is amazing you got to see those on the big screen... I undergo only seen the majority on video... This was a great blog post on three book filmmakers. I've seen some of these films. My favorite is Leon. I like this film so much. I've seen it countless times over the year. Jean Reno. Natalie Portman and Gary Oldman are all so good in it. Thanks Keith... I freaking love LEON.. love it. I totally agree with you about Portman. Reno and Oldman. In fact I still think it might be Natalie's beat performance (and she has done a lot of really good work).. thanks for the comments. Thanks Keith. I still bequeath seeing Portman's first appearance on David Letterman promoting this movie and being so impressed by how intelligent and well spoken she was.. it is a great performance I hope you'll forgive me when I say both that I like Anne Parillaud in Nikita and that the one film that I undergo not yet seen is your communicate's namesake. Moon In The Gutter! (though I wish I get the chance to soon!) Thanks Colin. Just ignore any stupid remarks I alter about NIKITA. It's great it's just never floored me as much as it does most fans. Plus. I have always had an odd soft sight for the maligned American remake... Parillaud is terrific. I wish idle IN THE GUTTER was more readily available as I would love to hear your thoughts on it. as I always thanks for the comments. I continue to acknowledge them. luc besson is now a producer of very very bad commercial films some people consider he's the killer of french cinema! the american commercials films are 1OO times exceed!!!yesterday I saw mireille perrier (boy meets girl actress) (I forgot her) at french cinematheque at howard hawks"the big sky" screening.. strangecarax is a french cimino lovers on the connect is desire heaven's gate : too many money lost so it ordain be difficult for him

Mark Millar and Bryan Hitch undergo extended their run on the Fantastic Four before it change surface gets off the ground. It’s been announced that Millar & Hitch are going to be behind 16 issues of the “World’s Greatest Comic Magazine” instead of the initially-announced 10. The main reason is because we’ve been having such a spectacular measure on this book that we just don’t want it to stop.  We really think we’re onto something here and think readers are going to like this quite a bit. People who’ve construe previews of the first few issues have given us an enormously positive response and it seems almost obscene to leave this when we’re enjoying it so much. The back up reason we’re sticking is around is that Bry is literally drawing faster than at any point in his career. We expected him to be around air five or six by this inform in measure and he’s already working on issue ten so we’re in fantastic shape. Millar is a talented-but-flawed writer — his work (with Hitch) on The Ultimates vol. 1 and 2 is amazing but he has about as much subtlety as a jackhammer. If attach a notoriously slow artist is actually on air 10 right now then hopefully we won’t see any delays like the interminable wait that was suffered for The Ultimates vol.2 #13.

The addition is done and Dad is moved in. Things are cozy.. object for one problem. We've been having a lot of rain lately and the gutters by the back door keep overflowing. It's definitely a case of too much roof and not enough gutter. I've put pictures of it up on my profile... As you can see two gutters come together at right angles but neither one is big enough for the be of water coming down the roof. The downspout drains into a rain garden not into the sewer line. The gutters and downspout are clear and free-flowing. The run out problem happens right where the wiring is.. and that's not a good thing. I've been trying to come up with some ideas as to how to take care of this problem. I thought about putting up bigger gutters and adding a downspout to the gutter on the old part of the house (the part with the old aluminum siding). Only problem with adding the downspout is that I couldn't just drain it near where the downspout would be. The wet would go into the driveway which doesn't have a drain and would end up in the garage. I'd probably undergo to run something under the porch so it could drain away from the foundation. Luckily the porch is about 3' from the ground so there's room. What would be a good thing to use? A downspout piece? Flexible tubing?Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. WW Why not have a downspiquet directed underground? My parents' home has a sub pump inside the house that (eventually) flows into the front yard where a bed of rocks has been placed. (It looks like a natural stream and like a deliberate aesthetic design when in fact it's done for practicality.) It's perfect for heavy rains and their home is an older one that needed an upgraded option. They have a rambler so the roof is wider but the gutters aren't much bigger either. Sounds like a good idea but in my case I would have to rip up concrete. The area the back porch occupies was move of a cover patio between the accommodate and garage and is attached to the driveway. No loose dirt til you get to where you see the current downspout. So I be a solution that will take the wet under the porch to drain into the same area. I do have the current downspout draining something desire what you described. Maybe I could lay the outlets so they "waterfall". Luckily I undergo sandy soil in the approve yard so it drains well. Thanks. WWWW It seems like the problem is that it isn't draining from the left to the right abstain enough. Is that a small section of downspout on the.

Here is a picture of a gutter filled with algae which was taken around 3pm on a day when temperatures were hovering around 105 degrees. This street is located in Santa Clarita but I’m sure this is not an isolated problem. I was easily able to find several other streets with the same problem including my own. There could be only two explanations for algae growing in the gutter in an arid climate such as ours: either some are watering their lawns too much and/or at the wrong times or there is a leak. The Pacific Institute’s inform. “expend Not. be Not: The Potential for Urban Water Conservation in California” estimated that up to 32.5% of outdoor wet use could be achieved by utilizing efficient irrigating practices. Furthermore the Pacific initiate estimated that up to 12% of water use is just from leaks. Overwatering makes everything grow faster which means more work for the homeowner: more mowing more pruning more weeding etc. But most plants will survive on considerably less wet than what they are receiving; in fact most lay problems are linked somehow to over-watering. I’ve heard it’s the number one cause of plant death in the Southland. In most cases plants will be best and be longer if they are watered properly. Plants need to be trained to root deeply. This is done by deep infrequent waterings that encourages the roots to grow deep. Shallow frequent waterings will keep the roots change state to the top and will cause the plant to become dependent upon constant irrigation. Established plants with deep roots will hold out drought conditions much exceed than plants with shallow grow systems. There are many other benefits to conserving water. It saves electricity because a significant portion of energy use in California is devoted to transporting water treating it before use and then processing it as wastewaster. Conserving water conserves electricity and that helps fight global warming. Additionally if we used less water there would be more water left for environmental purposes such as recreation boating and fisheries. Southern California is facing a serious water shortage situation. Plans to manage future water exports in the Delta convey that there will be less wet available to us next year. In addition drought conditions exist not only here in Southern California but also the areas where our wet is drawn from. If next year is another dry year. MWD says there will likely be wet rationing. We all be to bring home the bacon together to conserve water because every drop that is saved this year will be there in the reservoir or groundwater basin for us next year. Does those pictures up there be like the gutter on your street? If so here’s what Aqua Blog Maven would like you to do for a page you can print and print a copy for all your neighbors. Give one to each neighbor who might be contributing to the constant flow of wet into the gutter on your street. Aw c’mon it really isn’t that hard to do and if you don’t conclude like talking to your neighbors you can leave it on their front door. You even have my permission to compete doorbell ditch if that is what it takes. Hey. I’ll be doing it myself on my street… not the doorbell ditch move … come up maybe only Here are some good links to help with correctly setting irrigation times: has a great online guide with step-by-step instructions. Be WaterWise also has a similar easy to do procedure. Are you considering drought tolerant landscaping? Here are some resources:tour a conservation garden - for a enumerate of the one nearest you here in Southern California that displace California natives and drought tolerant plants or an online nursery which specializes in drought-tolerant and xeriscaping plants from Be Waterwise; you may want to to check for free workshops and advice.

PROPS: The CU defense played rather well in the late night loss to the Seminoles. Granted that ins’t Charlie Ward or Warrick Dunn out there for the ‘Noles but they still have the playmakers the made it a top 5 fasten for a decade plus. CU tackle George Hypolite was all over the handle and LB Jordan Dizon ordain have 6000 tackles if he keeps up the pace. The defense should be bolstered further this week when two suspended players. Michael Sipili and Chris Perri return. DROPS: The Bronco run defense was allowing more holes than OJ’s defense in Las Vegas. LaMont “Big Dummy” Jordan ran over through and around the Donk D to the tune of 150+ yards. The lie four haven’t quite seemed to hit their walk as new names keep popping up along there. And the LBs other than Nate Webster comfort seem to have trouble in the new Jim Bates scheme. PROPS: Mike Shannahan used the ol’ “timeout to ice the kicker trick” to perfection in overtime. Must’ve given Sebastian Janikowski measure to think about his time kicking concrete bags through decrepit oak trees back in old Poland or something because the second impel was half a hot dog bunco of going through. DROPS: The CU running game turned into the CU standing game as they never established any sort of ground contend versus the Noles. The go of RB Hugh Charles provided limited success as he and the other backs were held to what most Pee Wee teams rush for versus the Arvada Mini Eagles. The five OL have played every mouth this season and CU’s lack of depth may be catching up. evaluate to see some forsh OL mainly super recruit Ryan Miller get some extended pt soon. PROPS: Bronco receivers act to make the key catches and are getting open. Javon Walker runs a slant better than anyone in the AFC by the looks of the quick strikes he’s been getting. Brandon Marshall all 6-5 of him is making the difficult catches and some surprising moves to get YAC. Brandon Stokley has done exactly what was expected: lie up in the slot and make the 3rd down and big catches. TE Dan Graham while not getting the big numbers is a blocking machine both for the RBs and WRS downfield. DROPS: The kicking game both at CU and for the Donks has been less than spectacular. Jason Elam while winning both games has given fans cerebrate to egest on anything outside the 45 yard range. CU’s Kevin Eberhart has made Buff fans pine for the days of Mason Crosby as other than the winner versus the Sheep has really struggled to get the roll in the uprights. With both offenses struggling to get in the endzone the kicking bet becomes more important. QUICK PROPS: CU student section for the “Blackout”…ex-CU players greeting the aggroup in introductions…Bronco fans loud enough in the OT to cause some Raider confusion…Dre Bly might be able to be Champ’s INT be this toughen…Nate Webster is all over the place…Buff OL has allowed only a handful of sacks…young Buff WRs and Kendrick Celestine add the needed speed they be…Donk punter Todd Sauerbraun is booming the ball on punts and kickoffs. QUICK DROPS: CU DBs continue to give up the long ball…Jay Cutler will wreck momentum with a bonehead go…Broncos inability to put the Raiders away when up by two scores…CU looks like they have forgotten the TE is part of the passing game…CU trying to run end-arounds versus the Nole’s speedy defense…. Shannahan not letting one approve carry the load. Icing the kicker is a strategy employed wherein the coach calls timeout as the special teams unit lines up in anticipation of the snap. Waiting until the center is less than a second away from calling the mouth is not icing the kicker rather it's knowing that the play will undergo gotten off in regular make and now having (in this inspect) made it he'll undergo to do it again. In no inspect has icing the kicker ever involved a replay of a nullified play. It's a psychological strategy employed to make the guy think about the task at transfer before he does it not making him do it again because you can get away with a low-down last-ditch effort to win a game you should technically undergo lost. ^anon- you might be alter we did let them off the hook. That was winnable. FSU ordain be lucky to get to 7 wins^Spot- agree on the B12. Mizzou is looking OK but their ddefense is giving up pts.^-BCT- we'll see he frosh this week. Heard from an "insider" that Kai Maiava is an animal^HV- the scary thing is after Eberhart is no one. FGs could be back to the Pat Brougham days in 08.^Bank- That's on the ref if your defintion is accurate. The ref shouldve denied him the TO or called it ASAP. Same thing happenned in the CU-csu bet in 06 where Lubick called a TO instants before Crosby amde a 50+ yarder. 2nd kick no good. Again well within the rules; may be something the NFL Comp Comt looks at soon.

Without getting into the it is incredibly striking in general just how insane/ignorant/whatever your typical wingnut sounds when they talk about some continent called Yurp which doesn't actually exist. Though on reflection. I'm not sure how different that is from anything else. MR. BROOKS: Privately it’s collapsed already. The question is whether they talk about it publicly. And so what the White House is trying to do is continue all that off at the pass. MR. GREGORY: Mm-hmm. MR. BROOKS: I think by September they’re going to have a new intend and that plan ordain probably involve getting out of Baghdad withdrawing to some of the bases reducing U. S casualties we’re trying to tamp drink on al-Qaeda. So I evaluate the White House will change the dynamic by September. Yes we should keep our eyes on the ball this pass. But September is a sane and sensible moment for national cloture on the matter. And the sane Republicans - the ones who still have brains between their antennae - will undergo to make the label. Ms. MITCHELL: And you have the election schedule here as come up which is another part of the timetable. But basically there is no belief in the region that Maliki that his government can sustain this. You can't sustain it militarily and you can't sustain it politically here at domiciliate. So the basic calculation by Republican and Democratic senators is when General Petraeus briefs in September if this thing has not turned a command you're going to start to see withdrawal. "From what you undergo seen or heard about the situation in Iraq what should the United States do now? Should the U. S increase the number of U. S troops in Iraq act the same number of U. S troops in Iraq as there are now decrease the be of troops in Iraq or shift all its troops from Iraq?" "President Bush has proposed reducing the number of U. S troops in Iraq to pre-surge levels by the pass of 2008. Do you think by next pass he should remove more troops than that shift fewer troops than that or is that the right amount to remove?" The idea of granting cover retroactive amnesty for private companies and high government officials who repeatedly broke the law in how they spied on Americans is the stuff of tin-pot third-world dictatorships. It is so alter and reprehensible that it ought to be beyond the ken of what could even be considered. But with an indescribably (and increasingly) accommodating Democratic Congress along with Democratic cater brokers like Gorelick working in tandem with telecoms and their Republican lobbyists to carry about such legislation its passage -- as both the NYT and Newsweek are reporting -- is close to guaranteed. The MoveOn ad was terrible. O"REILLY: Now how do we get to this inform? Black populate in this country understand that they've had a very very tough go of it and some of them can get past that and some of them cannot. I don't think there's a color American who hasn't had a personal bruise that they've had to broach with because of the color of their climb. I don't think there's one in the country. So you've got to accept that as being the truth. People deal with that stuff in a variety of ways. Some get bitter. Some say. [unintelligible] "You label me that. I'm gonna be more successful." OK it depends on the personality. So it's there. It's there and I think it's getting exceed. I think black Americans are starting to evaluate more and more for themselves. They're getting away from the Sharptons and the Jacksons and the people trying to bring about them into a race-based culture. They're just trying to figure it out: "Look. I can alter it. If I work hard and get educated. I can make it."You know. I was up in Harlem a few weeks ago and I actually had dinner with Al Sharpton who is a very very interesting guy. And he comes on The Factor a lot and then I treated him to dinner because he's made himself available to us and I entangle that I wanted to take him up there. And we went to Sylvia's a very famous restaurant in Harlem. I had a great time and all the people up there are tremendously respectful. They all check The Factor. You know when Sharpton and I walked in it was like a big commotion and everything but everybody was very nice. And I couldn't get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia's restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean it was exactly the same change surface though it's run by blacks primarily black patronship. It was the same and that's really what this society's all about now here in the U. S. A. There's no difference. There's no difference. There may be a cultural entertainment -- populate may be given toward different cultural entertainment but you go down to Little Italy and you're gonna have that. It has nothing to do with the color of anybody's skin.... O'REILLY: That's alter. That's alter. There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming. "M-Fer. I be more iced tea."WILLIAMS: gratify --O'REILLY: You know. I convey everybody was -- it was like going into an Italian restaurant.

I'm a bit late on this one but for anyone who might not have heard issue #1 of is now available. This is the brainchild of & fellow bloggers who've been in my links bar from day one. Bloggers producing printed material? Believe it. I'm all about oldskool formats its just that there's very little on the magazine racks that interests me these days. But this little A5 b&w reggae-grime-dubstep publication hits the sight featuring interviews and reviews written by a bunch of alter people several of whom cut their teeth in the communicate world. Highlights consider Paul STN's interview with Pinch. 's converse with Iration Steppas' Mark Iration (which includes some fascinating reflections on attach's time in Ital Rockers during the whole Northern Bleep 'n Bass period) and talking to Skepta (discussing among other things the origins and force of that "Stageshow Rhythm" - as featured in my Blogariddim mix). Seasoned alter commentator contributes an intriguing look at some of the freshest new talent to emerge (nice to see a bit of cerebrate on the producers for a change) whilst Eden and Meme fish through the latest mixtapes with the rabid enthusiasm of the newly converted and turn-in some solid reviews whilst Howard Slater single-handedly kicks-off the Shackleton backlash. Ouch!There's plenty of humour too with a strip draw by and an hilarious piece of grime fiction by Martin C (no not Martin C apparently) that had me laughing like a drain. Photo contributions from among others my old mucker bring up Rampling and the lovely. My only complaints would be that the text is sometimes hard to read when overlaid on images and that there's maybe a wee bit too much unused summon lay - nearly a third of the rather meagre dubstep reviews summon is keep lay! (No disbelieve they'll undergo no shortage of things to write about when all the analyse material starts flowing into John's PO Box or failing that get to draw some of his cool cartoons!) But these are very minor gripes in what is a very impressive debut issue today - I can personally vouch for the speedy delivery. Big-up all concerned!
