| rantnrave:// One of my favorite animated shorts ever. LOGORAMA... GARY MILLER (aka Dr. Know or Doc), guitarist of the legendary Washington DC punk band BAD BRAINS, suffered cardiac arrest in November. His condition quickly progressed to multiple organ failure, and he was on life support for almost 2 weeks. He spent nearly three months in the hospital, until he was finally able to be transferred to a rehabilitation facility where he is working toward a full recovery. Doc did not have medical insurance at the time of his hospitalization, and the multiple medical bills have created an overwhelming financial strain that Doc and his family are not able to handle on their own. Please HELP.... Apparently I'm nuts, because everyone else says they aren't... There were plenty of sixth, seventh and eighth Beatles, but only one true fifth Beatle. A look back at the life, music and influence of the Fab Four's legendary producer. REDEF MusicSET: REMEMBERING GEORGE MARTIN... When notice is no notice... AC/DC loses guitarist, drummer and now their lead singer. Finding BRIAN JOHNSON after BON SCOTT died is 1 in a billion. No replacement IMHO... TUCO SALAMANCA is one crazy mofo... Mistakes are fine. Sloppy isn't... From features, to interviews, to profiles, to show imagery, coverage of PARIS FASHION WEEK FALL 2016... Despite record profits, more original scripted series were canceled in 2014 than even aired 15 years earlier. Not only are most of these failures unnecessary, they'll continue to escalate until networks update their metrics and business models for the digital era. The question is, will audiences stick around long enough? REDEF Media Original: TELEVISION HAS A BUSINESS MODEL PROBLEM. AND IT'S KILLING GOOD TV... Happy Birthday to DEBRA WEST, ADRIAN Z. SEDLIN and SANDY CLIMAN. | | | - Jason Hirschhorn, curator |
