Pitchfork writer Stephen Deusner reviews Middle Cyclone on ABC News: ABC News See Neko Case wearing the fart cannon Beyerdynamic DT770's in that clip. I don't think I can be a fan of hers anymore. )

Happy B-day!

They look nice. The cups are shaped like the MS2i "fatboys" and the cable looks a good bit thicker. Really wish they could have eliminated a couple of unpopular headphones in the lineup like the SR-125i and SR-325is to make a production version of the HF-1. They could even charge up to $350 for it if that's what it would take to cover costs of the wood and I wouldn't mind.

I would get something like this instead: AudiogoN ForSale: Theta Digital TLC Or the popular Monarchy DIP. It can convert TOSlink to coax and vice versa, but it also acts as a jitter reducer. You can find these used for around $100. If you can find one, these are a better value than a strict TOS-coax converter. The first time I heard the Ack! dAck! 2.0 was through the Theta TLC being fed from a computer with Chaintech AV710 outputting TOSlink and it sounded great.

I previously thought that you could not trade a player this soon after a trade has been made, but after some research I'm pretty sure that Morrison can be flipped again immediately, except only in a solo trade and not in a package deal. Hopefully, Mitch Kupchak can flip Morrison again for a 2009 expiring contract so that they can re-sign Trevor Ariza and Lamar Odom. Getting Ariza back is a must. Odom was overpaid, but if he re-ups at a reasonable price, I'd want him back as well. If they can't dump Morrison, then it's still a better contract than Vlad's so it's still a good deal. I didn't want Vlad anywhere near the court in the Finals if the Lakers were to meet Boston again this year.

Vladimir Radmanovich was traded to the Charlotte Bobcats for Shannon Brown and some 70's porno actor: Player wise, almost the definition of a lateral move. Traded an unathletic 3 pt shooter for another unathletic (not as good) shooter + guard. I hope this trade was only made to allow the Lakers to re-up Trevor Ariza and possibly Lamar Odom when their contracts are up. I don't really want to see Adam Morrison on the floor for the Lakers any time soon. He's not a good player.

This was Sound & Vision magazine's 2008 album of the year. I don't like it as much as Z, but it does sound good.

If anyone is interested in possibly spoiling the ending of the show for themselves like I did, you can try this blog. This theory sounds very legit to me. I don't visit any message boards for the show as I just consider myself a casual fan, but I found myself linked to that after reading this NY Post article about the show that has two physicists explaining the time travel aspect of the season opener.

Did you guys see the "manufactory video" on the webpage? It looks like one of those snobby Infiniti commercials with Jonathan Pryce. The video shows the storage case, and the inside looks exactly like the SA5000 box with the silk lining. Did Sennheiser just bring over Sony's engineers? There are way too many similarities between these headphones.

She & Him - Volume One There are conflicting news reports today that Zooey is now engaged to either Hunter Burgan of AFI or Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie. Either way...LAME!

You moved back? As in, you are able to live there right now? If so, that's amazing! It's time to play Mega Millions Lottery, Luis. It's at 73 million right now. Edit: And I just noticed I made the same joke Torpedo already made before me. Me=FAIL.

I was thinking about you yesterday after my buddy's condo in the same area was hit. I am so sorry to hear about your place, but happy to hear you are okay. I hope everything works out for you.

My brother-in-law purchased that same Vizio set a few months back and it just died on them. They were really relieved that they bought it from Sam's Club (return policy similar to Costco's).

Yes, they are kickass. They are supposed to be playing Dave Letterman this Friday.

How I Met Your Mother is CBS trying to make their own version of Friends. Group of friends in their late 20's living in the city. It's centered around one guy trying to get together with one of the girls and the surrounding stories involve the other friends. With that said, I agree that the Barney character is really funny. But everyone else is really dull. I laughed when I heard Bob Saget's voice doing the narration though. The only comedy I really watch is NBC's The Office. I never watched the Ricky Gervais/BBC original series, so it's fresh to me. I really like Criminal Intent, too. I'm a Vincent D'Onofrio fan. He's a strong actor and I think he should be cast in more films.
