I'm thinking it's gonna be an Asian this year...don't know how the judges judge or if they are doing anything at all. Think it is completely bogus/rigged. Think the winner is chosen for completely political...meaning for geo-political reasons...think about the previous years winners...more on this later...okay we're back...

I can see the Dominican Republic contestant in the back...she is hot as hell...please don't show the Donald...ruining the show for me...

Final strut for the 2006 Miss Universe Puerto Rico. Hot.

Ernst & Young gives the final results...no blondes! Now that's refreshing.

4th Runner Up: USA
3rd Runner Up: Korea
2nd Runner Up: Venezuela (clearly disappointed she didn't win--her mannerisms totally give away her sheer disbelief). Come on now..seriously, two words...Hugo. Chavez. You really think we're gonna give it to a woman from Hugo Chavez land?!
1st Runner Up: Brazil (standing next to Miss Japan--like seeing a Woman and a little boy standing next to each other).

Miss Universe 2007: Miss Japan. I can totally see her headlights. I called it! An Asian. I am special too!

No one sings?! What happened to the winners song? Where's the cheesy crooner? This is terrible...totally rushed towards the end...

Venezuela
Korea (Honey Lee!)
Brazil

The Questions: Time to hit the mute button on my remote (haha!)

Venezuela: Dave Navarro is asking question. What the hell kind of question is this? Dave Navarro is pervert! She answered well though...patronizes Mexico. She really believes she's going to win.

Korea: If you could have any type of superpower, what/why? Save the world she reckons. And have a fat wallet or something. She can't speak too well it seems--plus it looks like her mouth is crooked. Boo! She's still cute as hell though.

Brazil: Michelle Kwan asking question. Following your heart or mind? Wow. This woman just oozes sensuality. A little wink & a nod. Futile to resist this Brasiliana. Just plain sexy. Patronizes Mexico. Mmmm...brasilian portugese spoken by this beauty...man I'm weak.

USA: Getting booed! Yes! I love Mexicans! I love this show. Oh shit, that crowd is brutal. God bless us all! Terrible! She couldn't even say Mejiko very well. She shouldn't have made this far anyway.

Japan: That translator is a dweeb. Lifes lessons. Patronizes Mexico. She is dancer she says. Dweeb translator! She did good job.

Real..tough decision for the judges...

Okay...so it's time for the Top 5. The show itself becomes a two hour tourism junket for the host country...not to mention the girl from the host country is guaranteed a top placement. Wow...Viva Mexico! Slater stop trying to speak espanglish you maricon!

NBC Online voters picked...

Miss Philippines as most photogenic. She is cute.

Miss China: Miss Congeniality (I think I heard her say...you nice gentleman...)

Top 5 next. Miss India is a mess this year...don't like her at all..

Live Blogging: Miss Universe 2007

Mario "Slater" Lopez (world's phoniest Mexican) and the Lachey Filipina are seriously annoying. The girls (contestants) got to visit Chiapas...interesting...Mexico's ultimate playground?! The Evening gown contest is on now...

The Scores:

The Brazilian really fills up that dress...full bodied woman. Voluptuous would be an understatement. 9.599

India: 7.825 (terrible!) She had on a terrible dress/sari and performed one of the lousiest struts I've ever seen--all the while holding up her dress. Blah!
Japan: 8.943 The girl can strut! Great flowing dress and showing tremendous confidence.
Angola: Go Angola! Hot (8.363) Her red dress looked trashy/cheap.
Venezuela: Too much makeup...overly done. 9.510 She really fills up that dress! Voluptuous.
USA: Fell on her ass! Oh My God! Holy Shit. Ha. Ha. 8.754 Bogus score! That's total BS. What is this sympathy points?
Korea: She is cute as hell. I totally feel the need to get a massage. 9.163
Tanzania: Beauty. 8.488 (Boo!) Her dress looked like off-the-rack prom dress. Cheap. Poor strut.
Nicaragua: 7.674 (lowest so far) Dress looks like nightgown.
Mexico: 7.850 (low) Can't understand why she got such a low score??

Live Blogging: Miss Universe 2007

The Top 10 has been chosen. Go Tanzania! What the hell is Miss USA?! I can't figure out what mix of ethnic nuts she is, it's making me crazy. Oooh, Miss Nicaragua is stunning as well...and she is 5'7", which is like 7" taller than the average woman in Nicaragua. The bikini contest was frustrating...the downfall of Western Civilization....not terrorism, not changing demographics...the fact they don't show ass on television or in film. Ever. Show these women's backside! Why not?! What is wrong with this country....

Live From Mexico. The Miss Universe 2007 Contest. Woo!

The Top 15. How the Top 15 are chosen is a great Miss Universe mystery. In an instant the majority of the 77 contestants are disqualified, practically before the show has even begun. I have my favorites...Miss Tanzania has the most beautiful face I've ever seen--and she is bald--any girl that doesn't hide her face behind big hair is well...special. My other top picks are, Korea, Brazil, and Angola.

Fresh Fish On The Line.

Two of my favorite people in the whole wide world. Kat Williams & Terry Crews in this hilarious clip from Friday After Next. I love black people. Just for the record, when the revolution comes, I'll be on the side of my black brothers. Right. I will watch any god awful crap film if Terry is in it. All of his roles are memorable--well to me anyway--Cheeseburger Eddy (Longest Yard), Singing Guy in Car (Click), Latrell Spencer (White Chicks), Benchwarmers, and he'll be in the upcoming Get Smart movie with Steve Carrell. I can't wait. I am a Terry Crews fan. The man breakdances. The man raves. The man makes me smile. Greatest actor of our generation so far as I'm concerned.


I'm a nice guy when you get to know me

Starting tonight, I will post a new Terry Crews (Terry du Jour) clip every night until I can't find any more clips of him on the YouTube. Here's a sampler montage.

Night Disturbances

The New Denny's Slamburger:

Our exclusive late night burger is here. We take our juicy burger, add cheesy hash brown casserole, add an egg, cooked to order, top it all with cheese sauce and place it on a sesame seed bun. Served with a heaping side of French Fries.

Denny's.com (Specials)

This will never be part of a nutritiously balanced meal....had this tonight with a side of fries and Denny's Santa Fe ranch dressing. I had been doing so well in recent weeks...working out...eating healthier...don't know why I ordered this tonight. Pity thy arteries. I seriously (no joke) felt sharp pains in my chest after eating this thing. Mild heart attack it must've been. Now if we just removed the bun...the late Dr. Atkins would be proud. I wonder what homeboy cook concocted this...it's like hey, people like has browns, eggs, cheese and burgers! Why not put it all together?! Hey!

`The Best part of the nite was the music playing overhead...heard, the Cure, Altered Images, DM, New Order...one of the ex-homeboys at Denny's must've had an old Richard Blade's flashback favorites CD. Ended the night watching Hostel again in anticipation of part deux. I hears Bijou Phillips is in it. I love Bijou. Wonder if she'll play the trashy girl role...that would be a strech.

Cannes Control

Continuing the theme of dead icons...I've been scouring the net to find some clips of Anton Corbijn's (iconic photographer/video director) b&w biopic of Ian Curtis (Joy Division), called Control. The official film website doesn't offer much info. Alas, some lovely soul just uploaded the trailer for the film. Once again, thank my God for the YouTube. Ace! Apparently, it has been receiving glowing reviews since its debut at Cannes Film Festival last week. I've been looking forward to seeing this since I heard Anton was directing...but we'll have to wait several more months for the stateside release. Looks..um..dramatic. With Anton Corbijn directing, at least it's guaranteed to be visually stunning. Wonder how it will compare to 24Hour Party People's depiction of Ian....the second clip is a long Dutch interview (subtitled) with Anton that includes several clips from the film. And that's a good thing. So exactly what is Emo?

The Award For Coolest Guy Ever...

If such an award existed (and why doesn't it?)...goes to...Frank Tovey aka Fad Gadget--anyone who can perform on stage tarred and feathered or covers himself in shaving cream (not for the faint of heart) and have any credibility left is simply remarkable. Like the tale of Robin Hood, unique in literature--in that everyone knows the story but no one has actually read. Fad Gadget, a band I've known of for years, but never really listened to until recently--which is a terrible shame as the guy was amazing! So I'm getting to the party a couple decades late...but thank my God for the YouTube, I can share him with you all. And by all I mean the three people out there that read my blog...I know who you are...thanks.

Surprisingly, very few of the of the post-disco/punk electronic "futurists" dance music new wave exponent "pioneers" survived the 80's. As for Mr. Frank Tovey, I reckon he was either A. Ahead of his time. 2. Too full of himself/took himself too seriously/considered uncool for dropping out of art school. Or C, just didn't give a flying falluja. And in the ironies of ironies, Fad Gadget, after two decades, resurrects his musical career opening up the band that was once his opening act. In a stadium no less.

Watch the montage video below, then tell me if there is anyone cooler than he? Finger biting, hand licking, feathered, raving, stage diving (years ahead of his time), shirt ripping, microphone wire strangling, pogoing, power drilling ball o' synergy...

R.I.P. Frank Tovey.

From Mute UK:

The early eighties saw the emergence of the electronic/dance phenomenon in Europe. At the forefront of this movement were four names: Cabaret Voltaire, The Human League, The Normal, and Fad Gadget (Frank Tovey). Tovey released his first single Back to Nature in 1979 and was the first signing to Daniel Miller's Mute label. Miller (as The Normal) had previously put out his own composition T.V.O.D. c/w Warm Leatherette and was thinking of starting a label when he met Tovey. As Fad Gadget Tovey played solo with a drum machine and synthesizer confusing audiences at the time used to the standard rock format. Now, obviously, the scene is radically different with electronic sounds and beat boxes being the norm.

His name is quoted by Depeche Mode and Erasures Vince Clark as a major inspiration and the influence of Tovey's early experiments in electronic music can be heard in the likes of the Pet Shop Boys, New Order and all the Techno/Dance Bands of the 90s. The main characteristic of Tovey's work that distinguished him from his contempories and his followers was the quality of his lyrics. Not satisfied with singing pseudo science fiction (a la Gary Numan) or crass love songs, Tovey developed a style more akin to Dylan or Lou Reed, his black humour often confusing the punters at the time more interested in style than content.

His songs 'spoke of the diseases and fears poorly hidden from view. They spoke for and against the little man, the ubiquitous civilian bewildered by the speed of events threatening to sweep him up or leave him behind. And they spoke in a variety of voices: dead pan, severe, sardonic, satirical and, finally, disarmingly sincere....' -Biba Kopf '91.

Image wise, Tovey never played the pretty pop singer role preferring to be photographed by Anton Corbin covered from head to toe in shaving foam or tarred and feathered. His stage shows have often been mad acrobatic events. Where most performers remain untouchable he would purposely goad an audience, sometimes somersaulting from the stage (before stage diving became an international sport), like a latter-day cockney version of Iggy Pop his audience passing him around above their heads before depositing him back on the stage and screaming for more.

After four critically acclaimed albums Tovey dropped the Fad Gadget tag and continued to make albums for Mute under his own name. Throughout his career he has influenced and been influenced by many styles, mixing electronics with rock, punk, folk, and dance music. This has inevitably made it hard to pin him down. His last two albums, for instance, featured an electric banjo which he had custom built for Paul Rodden a member of his previous touring band The Pyros. Tovey has continually toured Europe and has over the years built up strong fan base who flock to see his shows never knowing what to expect this time but always leaving stunned by his performance.

The mark of a talented artist is there for all to hear in the ten albums he has created. All challenging musically, all intriguing in their lyrical content. Fad Gadget has recently come out of semi-retirement and done his first performance in six years for Elektrofest 2001 at the Mean Fiddler, London. The eagerly awaited show has left people wanting more. 'It's about time electronic music comes back to something more organic, soulful and powerful, but at the same time meaningful and song orientated.'

Frank was starting to look a lot like Sacha Baron Cohen towards the end however...

Awesome cover of The Normal's (Daniel Miller) Warm Leatherette with Peter Murphy on vocals, Trent Reznor (looking like he's just come back from boot camp) on keyboard/vocals along with Jeordie White and some other bloke in makeshift studio with small audience.

Two great clips from the 20th Century Box. 1981. London's South End. Depeche Mode. Crocs. Disco Futurism. Pirate Shirts. Wish I could've been there...complicating, circulating, new life.





Dave Gahan and I shared a moment in the backstage dressing room bathroom @ the Warfield in San Francisco a couple years ago...I like that fact that he washed his hands really well.

On Naming Names

Sarkozy look-alike?

Arturo Sarukhan (Mexican Ambassador to U.S.)

Spending my Friday nite watching C-SPAN with the Mexican ambassador giving speech/q&a at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce on trade, immigration, and security. Now what surprises me is first and foremost, the man's name, then his odd English-Aussie accent. Bizarre. I could be wrong but I don't think Sarukhan is a common Mexican name. Not even among our mestizo friends...So who is this guy? He is former General Consul of Mexico at New York City and more recently, Felipe Calderón's (New Mexican President) Int'l affairs policy coordinator during his campaign.

Mr. Sarukhan on Vicente Fox:

“That you had a Mexican president willing to stake and invest political capital in the relationship with the United States and that he has nothing to show for it puts everyone in a very tight spot in Mexico.”

I'm keepin' a eye on this guy...si se puede.

It's nice to have favorites. I've had one song on repeat in my head for the past 3.4 weeks.

179 seconds of pure bliss. Camera Obscura's Before You Cry. That song is just special. And just whence you think it's over...the most beautiful feminine vocals appear like something that appears when you aren't expecting it to appear. Like the mythical sacred firebird...never mind. Someone find an illegal upload someplace and send me link...Sssh...don't talk.

Before You Cry

No sense no style
I said I loved you for a little while
When you cried no
High speed became go slow
Come back this time
Wishful thinking is going to make you mine
Push turns to shove
I got no more room for love

I hope you hear me
I can’t stand you next to me
Get lost goodbye
I’ll smile before you cry

I love you baby
Please don’t hate me
You’re feeling a little sad tonight but you’ll be alright

One Thousand Paintings [1000 Numbers = 1000 Paintings]. I can't believe I'm even giving this guy any more publicity.

One thousand numbers = one thousand paintings. All beautifully painted on canvas (approx. 12 x 12 x 1.5 inches). Each number is unique - the number and the demand define the price. An experiment of art & mathematics, on the web, the first of its kind.

The guy paints a number on a small canvas. Makes tens of thousands of dollars. I can sell my hair off my thighs. Each hair is unique and without doubtization, artistic.

A Technology “First” for L.A.

Sweet, but why does it take over 20min for me to connect to the wireless network at my desk upstairs in the workroom?

LAPL Press Release:

A Technology “First” for L.A.: All City Libraries Now Offer Free Wireless Internet Service (Wi-Fi)

In a technology “first” for Los Angeles, people with laptop computers now have free wireless access to the Internet (“Wi-Fi”) and Web-based library resources at the Los Angeles Public Library’s Central Library and all 71 branches. The Library is the first City department to offer Wi-Fi in all its facilities.

With public demand for the Library’s 2200 computers at an all-time high, the library implemented Wi-Fi to provide greater and more convenient Internet access to the 15 million people who use the library annually.

“Transforming our libraries into Wi-Fi access points revolutionizes our ability to serve people,” says City Librarian Fontayne Holmes. “With Wi-Fi we’re providing computer access to far more people, without incurring the high cost of purchasing and maintaining additional equipment. Best of all, when people use their own laptops, more of our computers are available to patrons who must rely on library equipment for Internet access.”

Outfitting all 72 libraries citywide with Wi-Fi was accomplished without using City money, notes Holmes. Instead, the Library Foundation of Los Angeles, the non-profit organization that supports the Library, raised the necessary funds.

The program began in March 2004 as a pilot project in the Central Library’s Computer Center and was a success with the public. The Library then began an ambitious expansion of the service to all facilities. In Fall 2004, the Los Feliz Branch became the first branch to offer Wi-Fi service.

The Library completed the project by April 2007, with the inauguration of Wi-Fi at the final three branches: Felipe de Neve, Frances Howard Goldwyn-Hollywood Regional and Watts.

The Los Angeles Public Library serves the largest urban population of any library in the country. Its Central Library, 71 branch libraries, six million books and state-of-the-art technology provide everyone with free and easy access to information and the opportunity for life-long learning.

A few years back, the LAPL contracted the private Milwaukee, WI based wireless tech firm Ethostream LLC, (owned today by Telkonet TKO) who mainly provided wireless services for the hospitality industry. I must admit, I don't know much about how the city contracts/outsources such services, or how/why someone in tech infrastructure support decided to go with Ethostream. When you first connect to the library's wireless network, you are re-directed to the Ethostream page where you have to agree to a disclaimer with rules/regulations of the public library. Now I have yet to try the hot spots at any other LAPL branch, but ours is limited to interior of the building...although we occasionally see folks leaning up against our windows/walls outside with laptop in hand. The signal doesn't even reach the parking lot.

From Ethostream press release, Aug. 2005:

EthoStream Expands Library Project

Milwaukee, WI – August 12, 2005 - The growth of WiFi in libraries was expanded today with EthoStream’s installation of the EthoStream Library Solution into the first 10 locations of the Los Angeles Public Libraries. With the Internet becoming a fact of life in more and more daily activities, a high-speed Internet connection is a necessity. The Los Angeles Public Libraries has recognized this and has named EthoStream as its provider of choice for its high-speed Internet access (HSIA).

Los Angeles Public Libraries has chosen EthoStream’s Library Solution for its integrated EthoStream Control Center (ECC). The Control Center will allow Los Angeles Public Libraries management to monitor and report on every aspect of the HSIA installed in the library. The ECC also allows management of the HSIA such as defining hours of activation or bandwidth management.

EthoStream’s Library Solution and integrated Control Center also allows for additional communication services to be added. Such features as Digital Video Recording, IP Video Surveillance and numerous others set the EthoStream Library Solution apart from other products. The Control Center provides the ability to remotely manage all of these features creating greater value and reducing costs for libraries.

More and more organizations are realizing the need for HSIA. Doctor’s offices, restaurants, parks and marinas have all found that customers perceive greater value and greater benefit from locations that allow them to be more efficient. Hotels and gas stations such as Hiltons and Flying J have been able to attract new customers purely through sharing their Internet connection. From business to recreation, people carry a number of devices each day that benefit from this new technology.

James VanGerpen of the Los Angeles Public Libraries states, “EthoStream’s Control Center allows me to be more productive each and every day.” “This is the same reason that more and more libraries choose EthoStream’s Library Solution to provide HSIA to library patrons, “ states EthoStream’s Jason Tienor. “We find that an increasingly large and growing number of libraries wish to add this new benefit and are searching for the most efficient and secure manner of doing so.” EthoStream’s current customers include the Waukesha Federated Library System, the Scottsdale Public Library System, the LA Public Libraries and many more.

The library department's Technology Infrastructure Support budget was less than $21K for 2006. Not so sweet.

Entourage Lament part deux

They did introduce a light-skinned black girl in the last episode...

From the good people @ LAist:

Last year the "Entourage" film crew spent a Friday in our Variety offices, filming a scene for the show in which Johnny Drama (Kevin Dillon) confronts a Variety reviewer (loosely based on our own Brian Lowry) after getting a bad review. [...] Brian wrote about the whole experience in a Variety column:

Because the glitz-filled "Entourage" has a certain hipster image to uphold, the producers populated the newsroom with extras, ensuring that Fake Variety's staff was more attractive, stylish and younger than Real Variety. A few of us actual journalists observing this alternate reality felt a bit like Woody Allen in "Stardust Memories," wondering how we wound up on the ugly train.

In the scene, Drama -- so vulnerable the possibility of negative reviews causes near-paralysis -- bursts in and berates the critic as a "sad little fat hack fuck." Technically, just two of those adjectives are accurate.

Variety's Fake TV Critic dresses shabbily and wears glasses denoting years of solitary TV viewing (definitely true), eats lunch at his desk (occasionally true), acts unfazed by someone barging in to personally lambaste him (mercifully untrue) and has his own assistant (so untrue the Real Critic is still laughing his ass off)...

Anyway, there's plenty of excitement around Variety about "Entourage's" encore, perhaps because it's so nice to see the place temporarily adorned in prom-night finery -- even if it's as realistic as a newspaper, circa 2007, whose budget provides an assistant for critics.

Entourage Lament (We Got Got.)

Lloyd (Ari's queen assistant) being the exception, the 3rd season of Entourage has been lackluster to say the least. Lackluster...a word I never use. Why I just used it now I know not. You know how hard it is to converse/relate to old White women all day? Shit, I'm like 4 different mario van peoples in the course of one day. In any case, a few weeks back I says to myself, self--give it a few more weeks before complete bandwagon abandonment. Like my guidance counselor in high school said to me about college--give it four years, if you don't like it you can always find a job. So four episodes into it, I'm totally flabbergasted. Wow, another word I never use. Dumbfounded even. Man, I've been spending way too much time with the old White ladies...What the hell happened to this show? I honestly don't care to watch next weeks episode...okay, I probably will...what the hell else am I going to watch?

To be fair, the show still works on many levels--likeable characters, warmth, humor, and the first two seasons were hella fun (yo), but it seems the shows writers got lazy this season. Even the acting seems un-natural--contrived, as if everyone is trying too hard to play their respective roles. Then I started noticing other things about the show I hadn't really realized in the past...like...continuity for starters, there is very little continuity between one episode and the next. We still don't know how the boys hooked up with their new (ex) agent. Or who the hell she is. And what happened to Vince's publicist?! She disappeared this season, yet her name is in the credits. Our star on the show, Vince does one movie every two years it seems. Some famous Hollywood celebrity he is. The show has become predictable. Why are there so few minorities depicted in the show?! No Latinos, Persians, Koreans, Armenians...this isn't the L.A. I know. How about a light skinned Black girl? Come on now! Or, to be really hip, throw in an Indian extra or two--hell, Indians are in every god forsaken commercial these days. Point: In the last episode, the boys went the track (horse racing) to bet on the ponies--every other booth in the scene was filled with hot girls--blondes--wtf?! I've been to the track, there are no hot girls at the race track. Come on now! Old weird white men and short, chain-smoking, middle-aged Asian men (gambling addicts) is what I see. Hell, it wasn't shot even in L.A., it was filmed at the track/fairgrounds in Del Mar (San Diego). In fact every single scene is filled with young, stylish, sexy hipsters--aah, Los Angeles, I totally want to live there. Why is every other scene on the same two streets in Beverly Hills? Why the hell doesn't Vince work out? He's a total wimp. The plot lines for the shows today are about as thick as Jack and the girls trying to hide a kitten from Mr. Furley in season four of Three's Company. The show has gone way too feminine. Above all, why won't they show ass anymore? Season three = ass free. Entire episodes run like 19minutes. One has to wait like 18 months or something for the next season...hell we've only got like 3 more episodes left of season three--then wait 'til next year for a new episode. Come on now! And no Lloyd in the last two episodes. I digress...like a wise Black man once said, get mad if you want, I won't front, cuz I got a new tape and it's full of funk--wait, that makes absolutely no sense, but it's been in my head all day, and really that is the beauty of having a blog no one reads.

Camera Obscura - Keep It Clean

To live and drive in L.A.

So you think you've seen it all? I once tried to convince myself that I had see it all. You haven't. I have. I swear. My black ass saw it with his own dark eyes. Have you ever seen a man on a Lazy-boy recliner/wheel chair "pimped" out speeding down the sidewalk? I have. I swear. My black ass saw it with his own dark eyes. Have you ever seen a man on a Lazy-boy recliner/wheel chair "pimped" out speeding down the sidewalk? I have. So you think you've seen it it all? Nevermind, just look...Burbank, Ca. 630pm. The guy even gave us a thumbs up. As my (non-existent) ghetto friends say: Yo, that shit is pimp. Oh snaps!
