K-MART CLOSING – CONSUMERS FORCED TO FIND CRAP ELSEWHERE
The announcement that dozens of Kmart department stores will be closing has hit many of their filthy, uncooperative employees hard. According to
Derfmagazine.com, while the closing stores will put thousands out of work, some are trying to look at the bright side.
“I’m not going to let any of the speculation get to me,” said one ill-groomed Kmart employee. “I’m going to come in to work every day, stand outside smoking, walk around the spills on the floor, and occasionally shoplift stuff if and when we ever get anything good enough in here to steal.”

IT’S HIP TO BE SNUBBED!
Cap News is reporting music legend Huey Lewis And The News is extremely upset at having been passed over to perform at this year's Super Bowl halftime show. Pop icon Madonna will take the stage at this year’s event, a move both groups say is a case of the NFL "playing it safe.”
"I've got 40 years of rockin' under my belt, but I still know how to bring it," said Huey Lewis. "They want edgy? I even have a song about wanting a new drug - you know, one that does what it should."
Officials from the NFL refused to comment, and frankly sounded a little confused when asked about Mr. Lewis… and the news.

And finally…
RICH WHITE GUY WINS PRIMARY
The results of the GOP Iowa primary are in, and a rich white man has come out on top. “I’m thrilled” said the winner, who vowed to take back America and restore pride in our country. Several other rich white males who finished behind the winner say the man is not conservative enough and they will fight on in New Hampshire, but for today, the spotlight belongs to the well funded penis owner who managed to attract literally hundreds of ill-informed white voters to support his message of being scared of black people.

Inception
In Theatres and IMAX® Friday, July 16
Acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan directs an international cast in "Inception," an original sci-fi actioner that travels around the globe and into the intimate and infinite world of dreams.
Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a skilled thief, the best in the dangerous art of extraction: stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb's rare ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him everything he has ever loved. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption. One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the impossible-- inception . Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off the reverse; their task is not to steal an idea but to plant one. If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime.
But no amount of careful planning or expertise can prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every move. An enemy that only Cobb could have seen coming.
This summer, your mind is the scene of the crime.

The Grease Sing-a-Long
“GREASE” SING-A-LONG SELLS OUT ACROSS THE COUNTRY
Sold Out Shows Reported in Austin, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York City, San Diego and San Francisco –
Ocala, FL Sells Out Entire Weekend
“GREASE” fans everywhere have spoken. Sellouts have been reported in Austin, TX, Dallas, TX, Los Angeles, CA, New York, NY, Ocala, FL, San Diego, CA and San Francisco, CA for the upcoming exclusive engagements of “GREASE” Sing-A-Long. On the heels of promotional, standing room only outdoor screenings across the country, people have flocked to buy tickets for the limited engagements of the hit musical.
John Travolta’s hometown, Ocala, FL, has reported all showings of the limited engagement are sold out.
“GREASE” Sing-A-Long will begin playing TONIGHT in its first run of exclusive showings in 12 markets across the country. The first cities to show the film include: New York, NY (AMC Village); Los Angeles, CA (AMC Century City); Chicago, IL (AMC River East); San Francisco, CA (AMC Metreon); Boston, MA (AMC Boston Commons); Dallas, TX (AMC Northpark); Atlanta, GA (Regal Atlantic Station); Seattle, WA (AMC Pacific Place); Ft. Lauderdale/Miami, FL (Sunrise Gateway); San Diego, CA (AMC Fashion Valley); Austin, TX (Alamo Lamar); and Ocala, FL (Regal Hollywood).
Paramount Pictures will expand the film to the following five additional cities on Thursday, July 15th: Houston, TX (Cinemark Woodlands 17); Orlando, FL (AMC Pleasure Island); Phoenix, AZ (AMC Esplanade); San Antonio, TX (STKS Palladium); and Detroit, MI (MJR Partridge Creek). These additional five cities were selected based on the results of an online poll, with fans across the country “demanding” the musical open in their city. The film is being distributed by Paramount Pictures under the newly created Insurge Pictures label.
Ramona and Beezus
The adventures of young Ramona Quimby (newcomer Joey King) and her big sister Beezus (Selena Gomez) come to life in this all new film based on the best-selling books (over 30 million…and counting) by Beverly Cleary. Ramona’s vivid imagination, boundless energy, and accident-prone antics keep everyone she meets on their toes. But her irrepressible sense of fun, adventure and mischief come in handy when she puts her mind to helping save her family’s home.
John Corbett (My Big Fat Greek Wedding) and Bridget Moynahan (I, Robot) also star as Ramona and Beezus’ parents, Robert and Dorothy Quimby, while Ginnifer Goodwin (He’s Just Not That Into You) portrays the girls’ Aunt Bea, opposite Josh Duhamel (Transformers) as Bea’s former flame, Hobart. Sandra Oh (Grey’s Anatomy) plays Ramona’s third grade teacher, Mrs. Meacham.
Elizabeth Allen (Aquamarine) directs from a screenplay by Laurie Craig and Nick Pustay. Denise Di Novi and Alison Greenspan produce for Fox 2000 Pictures and Walden Media. The cinematographer is John Bailey, ASC; Brent Thomas is the production designer; and Jane Moran is the editor. Co-producer is Brad Van Arragon. Music is by Mark Mothersbaugh, and the music supervisor is Julia Michels.
First published over 50 years ago, Beverly Cleary’s books have entertained several generations of readers. The cast and filmmakers of the first major motion picture based on Cleary’s series – RAMONA AND BEEZUS – typifies the books’ cross-generational appeal. The film’s Ramona, Joey King, began reading the book series before she was cast in the role. Selena Gomez, the on-screen Beezus, had read the books in elementary school. “I love how Beverly writes the characters,” says the popular singer-actress. “We wanted to do justice to Beverly and her work, and to make her proud. We all did our homework and worked really hard to be true to the characters. I think this movie is going to be a fun family experience.”
“I grew up on the Ramona books, as did my mother who passed them down to me,” says Ginnifer Goodwin, who plays Ramona and Beezus’ Aunt Bea. “I think the way the books are passed down from parent to child is what’s magical about the whole series. The thing that really struck me when I reread the books was how Beverly Cleary captured the childhood experience.”
For the filmmakers, the process of turning the books into a major motion picture brought up strong feelings of nostalgia. “It’s a unique privilege to be able to make a movie that’s based on something so integral to one’s childhood,” says producer Alison Greenspan, who worked tirelessly to secure the motion picture rights to the beloved books.

Michael Butler and Sam Levin visit the guys who make Looptastic for the iPhone
About Looptastic: Mobile Mashups Made Easy
Looptastic is the performance remix tool for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Tear apart tracks with your fingertips. Crossfade and filter. Play live through headphones or speakers. It’s a party in your pocket.
Looptastic Producer was featured in the What's Hot section of the App Store.
"Looptastic Producer offers l33t music producers the most bang for their buck." wired.com
"You'll be mixing like a pro." Fox News "A cool and intuitive remixing environment" Electronic Musicia
"What an amazing app. The tempo / stretch control is completely seamless. This app has gone from strength to strength and I hope it keeps on going." Palm Sound
"Its so easy to perform different mixes in real time that saying it is smooth is a total understatement. A real winner! Good work guys!!" KeyWiz
"Deep [yet] easy to use." AppCraver.com
* Import your own loops in AIFF, WAV, or OGG format using an intuitive web interface. Importing requires a Wi-Fi connection to a PC, Mac, or Linux machine.
* Automatic beat synchronization makes loops of different tempos play in sync
* Manipulate the sound with any of 9 effects, including fliters, delay, repeater, bit crusher, and flanger.
* Apply effects to part or all of the mix
* Load up to four minutes of CD-quality loops per set.
* Comes with 260 loops packaged as 26 remixable tracks. This includes the complete set of Electro and Progressive loops. *** Requires that you download the Electro and Progressive sets from the Loop Store at no charge.
* Multitouch volume control with three zones and crossfader
* Record your mix for future playback on the device
* Export your mix to Mac or PC via Wi-Fi
* Tempo control using timeshifting algortihms. The pitch stays the same--only the BPM changes.
* Play up to 20 loops at the same time and mix and match between built in loops and your own loops.
* One Shot mode plays samples without time-stretching -- ideal for sound bites
* Manually trigger loops using a waveform display Tips & Tricks
Looptastic is easy to use, but surprisingly deep. Here are some insider tips for creating more exciting performances.
Quick Mix
You don’t need to wait for all the sounds to load before starting to mix. As soon as a loop icon lights up, you can drag it to the playing field and begin your performance. You can even drag unloaded sounds there; they’ll start to play as soon as they’ve loaded. (This technique works best with percussive loops.)
You don’t have to wait for loops to load before starting your performance.
Hello, I’ll Be Your Fader
Play the Extremes
The Looptastic crossfader is a lot more expressive than you’d think. Tap the extreme right and left edges of the fader on the beat to create DJ-style transform effects. (Try tapping the filter screen on offbeats, too.)
Cue & Evolve
Move the fader all the way to one side, cue up some loops in the silent zone, and then snap the fader over to the silent side on the next downbeat. That will transition to a new section in your song. Repeat this left-right, cue-and-snap movement to keep the mix evolving.
Instant Breakdown
Put all the loops except a vocal into one side zone, and then quickly crossfade to the other side to solo the vocal. (Keeping a subtle hi-hat pulse going in the center zone — which always plays — helps propel the mix along.) Now drag loops horizontally from the silent zone into the center zone, one by one, to start building up your track again.
Right now, only the vocal (right zone) and hi-hat (center zone) are playing. Dragging loops horizontally from the silent zone (left) adds them back to the mix, creating a build.
No-Stress Recording
Unlike most music apps, in which you click Record and then pray you perform something good, Looptastic is always listening. In Looptastic, you hit Record after you’ve played something great, knowing Looptastic has already captured it. This retro-recording design eliminates the “red light jitters” so many performers get.
Producer’s Cut
With the flagship Looptastic Producer app, you can really personalize your mix by importing your own sounds over Wi-Fi. (We call it Mashup to Go.) Looptastic automatically time-stretches your loops so they play in sync, but there’s also a hidden sound-bite feature: Before import, change the mode to One Shot on your computer. That disables the time-stretching so your sound bite plays normally. By setting the loop length, you can control how often it repeats.
Set sound bites to One Shot mode and Looptastic Producer will play them at the original speed. Control how often the phrase repeats by picking a bar length.
Export Control
One of our biggest customer requests was for a way to export recordings as high-res audio files. That’s now possible in all versions of Looptastic. (Except the free one, although even it captures your performance moves, so you can still record the iPhone’s analog output.) You can burn exported files directly to CD.
Got a hot tip? Send it in! We’ll feature the best ones here, along with a link to your site or YouTube demo. Support
How do I restore Loop Sets I purchased on another device or on the same device?
If you previously bought Loop Sets inside Looptastic Producer, you can download them again at no charge. Simply go through the steps of purchasing the loop set(s) again. You will not be charged a second time. You will also receive a confirmation message that you have previously purchased the item.
I’m having trouble uploading; what should I do?
It is important that your device have a valid Wi-Fi connection and be on the same Wi-Fi Network as your computer.
If your device is saying it is unable to establish a connection, try restarting it using the following steps:
* Hold the power button at the top for 5 seconds
* Swipe the "slide to power off" slider.
* Wait for the device to power down.
* Press the power button again.
You may want to try setting up an ad hoc Wi-Fi network between your computer and your device. On the Mac, the steps are as follows:
* Click on the Wi-Fi icon on the menu.
* Choose Create Network. Choose a name for your network and click OK.
* On your device, open the settings. Choose the network you created in step 2.
* Open Looptastic and press the Import/Export button.
* On your computer open a browser with the address shown on the device screen (for example, http://169.254.237.89:8080). At this point you should see the Looptastic web page.
I don’t hear the sound. What’s wrong?
* If you are running iPhone or iPod OS 3.0, make sure you update to the latest version of Looptastic. We have fixed the incompatibility in version 2.1.0 of Looptastic.
* Make sure your iPhone is not in silent (vibrate only) mode.
* Make sure the volume is turned up.
* Make sure that you have moved the loops (colored squares) to the top of the screen so that they play at full volume.
I’m having trouble with audio breakups or the application closes by itself. How do I fix this?
Try restarting your iPhone or iPod Touch to free up memory:
* Hold down the power button.
* Swipe the slide to power off.
* Wait for the unit to power down and then press the power button again.
What is the best way to create loops for Producer?
There are several good ways to create loops. Both Ableton Live and Sony Acid allow you to export tracks individually. This is very helpful for creating separate parts at the same length and tempo.
You can also use Apple GarageBand to prepare loops for Looptastic. The key is set up a 4- or 8-bar section and use the looped playback feature to set a range. Then, solo one track and export your mix to a AIFF file. Repeat for each track in your arrangement.
Here are some freeware loop editors that may help:
Mac:
Loop Editor
Audacity
PC:
Wavosaur ( Tutorial )
Audacity
The tempo is off; what do I do?
For best results, use loops that have a similar or identical tempo. Also, use loops that are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32 bars in length. Looptastic Producer will do its best to line everything up automatically. If all else fails, make each track the same length.
Where can I get some loops?
Here are three demo sets developed by Adam Smith Kipnis that you can download and use with Looptastic Producer.

With Jean Du Sud Around The World Original Trailer
[LESS INFO] 26 VIEWS | ADDED 16:17:35 04/03/08
TheSailingChannel is honored to offer what many consider to be the finest sailing film ever made: With Jean-du-Sud Around the World . A Film by Yves Gélinas . Twice winner of the Palme d'Or at the Larochelle Sailing Film Festival (for Part One in 1983 and Part Two in ’85) and of 8 awards in other festivals , Jean-du-Sud celebrates the filmmaker's 28,000 mile, single-handed circumnavigation through the roaring forties and around Cape Horn aboard his Alberg 30 sloop .
Available for purchase: http://www.thesailingchannel.tv/jean-du-sud/
100 minutes - English and French
DVD: $19.95 plus S%H
VIDEO DOWNLOAD: $9.99
Shot in 16-mm film with sync sound, Jean-du-Sud puts you in the cockpit: Yves speaks as he would to a fellow crew member. Unless you do it yourself, this is as close as you'll ever get to a solo circumnavigation. In attempting to sail non–stop between Saint-Malo, France and Gaspé, QC, Canada through the Roaring Forties and around Cape Horn alone aboard his boat, Jean-du-Sud, Canadian Yves Gélinas added his personal share to the art of sailing a small boat around the world. Besides the voyage, his accomplishments included the design of a system to self-steer his boat , the writing of a book to document the voyage , and the shooting of a 16 mm film while sailing . Even though Yves was unable to complete the circumnavigation non-stop, Jean-du-Sud was the smallest boat up to that time to sail that route. In acknowledgement, the Joshua Slocum Society International bestowed on Gélinas the Golden Circle Award .
> " I had a lot of time to meditate – the phone did not ring often – but I must say I haven’t had any great revelations, I did not experience nirvana or samadhi. Yet I have known many moments of total contentment : ends of days when the sun dove into the sea splashing half the sky with warm light...The trade wind caressing naked skin (it is almost as good as if it came from a loved one)…The simple pleasure of watching the bow of my boat slice through the surface of the sea, pushed, but also guided by an invisible force : the magic of the wind…. " Yves Gélinas
VIDEO DOWNLOAD: 100 Minute Video

With Jean Du Sud Around The World Original Trailer

TheSailingChannel is honored to offer what many consider to be the finest sailing film ever made: With Jean-du-Sud Around the World . A Film by Yves Gélinas . Twice winner of the Palme d'Or at the Larochelle Sailing Film Festival (for Part One in 1983 and Part Two in ’85) and of 8 awards in other festivals , Jean-du-Sud celebrates the filmmaker's 28,000 mile, single-handed circumnavigation through the roaring forties and around Cape Horn aboard his Alberg 30 sloop .

100 minutes - English and French
DVD: $19.95 plus S%H
VIDEO DOWNLOAD: $9.99
Shot in 16-mm film with sync sound, Jean-du-Sud puts you in the cockpit: Yves speaks as he would to a fellow crew member. Unless you do it yourself, this is as close as you'll ever get to a solo circumnavigation. In attempting to sail non–stop between Saint-Malo, France and Gaspé, QC, Canada through the Roaring Forties and around Cape Horn alone aboard his boat, Jean-du-Sud, Canadian Yves Gélinas added his personal share to the art of sailing a small boat around the world. Besides the voyage, his accomplishments included the design of a system to self-steer his boat , the writing of a book to document the voyage , and the shooting of a 16 mm film while sailing . Even though Yves was unable to complete the circumnavigation non-stop, Jean-du-Sud was the smallest boat up to that time to sail that route. In acknowledgement, the Joshua Slocum Society International bestowed on Gélinas the Golden Circle Award .
> " I had a lot of time to meditate – the phone did not ring often – but I must say I haven’t had any great revelations, I did not experience nirvana or samadhi. Yet I have known many moments of total contentment : ends of days when the sun dove into the sea splashing half the sky with warm light...The trade wind caressing naked skin (it is almost as good as if it came from a loved one)…The simple pleasure of watching the bow of my boat slice through the surface of the sea, pushed, but also guided by an invisible force : the magic of the wind…. " Yves Gélinas
