Frankie Rose - Thee Only One [Slumberland]

C-86 new schooler. My favorite part of this new wave is the simplicity to the drums. Bang bang bang bang, it’s the only beat you really need for a rock song.

Molina and Johnson - Twenty Cycles To The Ground (Secretly Canadian)

There’s something in the way Will Johnson drops down vocally or on the guitar that makes me shiver a little. He does it with sincerity and assurance, as if it’s the last turnaround ever and only he knows it.

MS Paint Portfolio: USA

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:10:13 -0400

From 8/20/09
Sanam: Hey, what if I asked everyone I know to do a sketch of the united states, then posted the results on the web? I think it could be funny to see how well people can outline it, and how much the drawings differ.
KJ:

Sanam: AMAZING. You need to start an MS paint portfolio.
KJ: Yeah, maybe I will.

hotdoorknobs:

New York City subway cars being towed to a location off the coast of Delaware, where they will be dumped into the Atlantic Ocean. “They’re basically luxury condominiums for fish,” Jeff Tinsman, artificial reef program manager for the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, said as one of 48 of the 19-ton retirees from New York City sank toward the 666 already on the ocean floor.

“For example, in the late 1940s, before there was a polio vaccine, public health experts in America noted that polio cases increased in step with the consumption of ice cream and soft drinks, according to David Alan Grier, a historian and statistician at George Washington University. Eliminating such treats was even recommended as part of an anti-polio diet. It turned out that polio outbreaks were most common in the hot months of summer, when people naturally ate more ice cream, showing only an association, Mr. Grier said.”
