Intel sounds afraid of the future.
Speaking to PC World yesterday, Intel Product Manager Anand Kajshmanan and media spokesperson Alison Wesley set out in no uncertain terms what the Ultrabook means to Intel. It's all hidden in the name, it seems: "Ultra' means pinnacle, and we wanted the Ultrabook to be the pinnacle of everything that users have come to expect from their computing device." The they went on to explain where the entire concept came from: "We did extensive research into what users' expectations were for their mobile computing devices, and there were four things that really stood out." You may imagine that those four things are "Apple, MacBook, Air, iPad," given that Ultrabooks are really just Windows-powered versions of the Air, but Intel took pains to note "plethora of choice" was one of the characteristics.
If you've witnessed the visually intimidating array of very similar laptops on store shelves lately, you might doubt that "plethora of choice" is really what consumers lack. Intel's team also said Ultrabooks are driving down the entry price to this category, presumably undercutting Apple's $999 starting point. But suppliers aren't matching Apple's design quality or tech specs at lower prices, and Intel's had to specially lower the price of its mobile chips. And don't forget, the iPad starts at just $500.
Kajshmanan and Wesley danced nimbly around dissing Apple too much—Intel's inside every single new Mac—but they said the Air is a "great choice for someone who wants to invest in the Mac operating system," but added that, "really, with the Ultrabook, it's about offering all those things in the same device—the great responsiveness, the great battery life—and with an operating system that people have come to love over the years, as well as all the legacy applications that they would like to run."
In other words Windows is all they've known, despite the fact there've been arguably better alternatives around for years. Never mind that you can run Windows on a Mac, either natively or—shock horror—in a Window on OS X using software like Parallels. Sure, this costs a little because you have to actually pay Microsoft for a Windows license, but it's still a very viable option.
Then Intel's folks talked up a development of the Ultrabook they fully expect to grow to huge popularity soon: The clamshell touchscreen laptop. Essentially this is a half-tablet, half-notebook design where the laptop's display hinges all the way around to become a full touchscreen "tablet" PC. Think of it as a halfway house between tablets and laptops for people who can't let go of legacy laptop uses because of preference or some other reason, but do want to sample the tablet experience. Microsoft's upcoming tablet-friendly Windows 8 OS may be a great incentive for this sort of design. Which is, basically, a refresh of the old "tablet PC" design that Bill Gates got all excited about a decade ago, but which never took off the ground thanks to expense and a touch-unfriendly Windows implementation.
For fun, here's a video of one concept that shows you what this might look like—ironically on a reimagined MacBook:
Intel, despite moves toward making truly powerful mobile-friendly CPUs, agrees with us that the PC is dying. That, in fact, the laptop has, with the Ultrabook, reached its "pinnacle" of design--there's precious few innovations left to take it in a wholly new direction, unless you sort of turn it into a tablet PC. And that's what Intel's worried about. Tablet PCs, currently selling by the tens of millions, are powered by ARM chips.

By TUG GETTLINGCTFU Co-Chair
Dear Editor,
As part of National Kick Butts Day April 2, the Coalition for a Tobacco Free Utah would like to extend their appreciation to the Utah State Legislature for helping Kick Butts during the 2003 legislative session. We're thankful you realize the importance of maintaining tobacco prevention and control program funding. We understand the gravity of the state's current funding difficulties, and recognize that allocating tobacco prevention and control monies, as a quick fix to compensate for budget shortfalls must have seemed appealing. States such as Wisconsin, New Jersey and Missouri have taken this shortsighted step. Tobacco prevention and control programs are fundamental in reducing death, disease, and costs that tobacco inflicts upon taxpayers. Yearly, tobacco kills roughly 1,218 Utahns and costs Utah approximately $273 million in tobacco related health care costs. Every dollar spent in tobacco prevention saves roughly three dollars in medical costs. Funding tobacco prevention and control programs not only saves lives, but also increases revenue for the state in the long run.Utah's statewide tobacco prevention and control programs have been successful: fewer students and adults smoke, and more smokers want to quit. Our hope is that Utah will continue to use its resources sensibly until we eliminate the devastation caused by tobacco. We urge continued support of funding for tobacco prevention and control in Utah, which will give Utah a fighting chance to prevent another generation from becoming addicted to tobacco.

"Right to keep and bear arms preserves freedom and life."
Mankind's greatest threat is war waged against the unarmed citizen by his or her own government. That is the main reason a person needs a gun. This was the thinking of the Founders when they established our nation. Furthermore, 20th century history clearly proves this very remarkable fact.
Professor R. J. Rummel of the University of Hawaii provides the needed evidence to support this fact. He coined the word "democide" to describe the intentional murder of people by government. It includes genocide, political and terror killings, and massacres.
Rummel is perhaps the world's foremost authority on this horror. In his fourth book on the subject, "Death by Government" (New Jersey: Transaction Publishers,1994, 496 pages) he documents nearly 170 million victims of democide from 1900 to 1987. That is more than four times the 38 million battle deaths from all civil and international wars during this period. He points out that democide has been inflicted "on unarmed, helpless citizens and foreigners" and has killed over 200 million in the 20th century.
Rummel also establishes that the more freedom in a nation, the fewer people killed by their government. He shows that communist and other police state governments-that don't allow their citizens to have guns-account for most of the democide.
Obviously, too much government is more deadly than war. Freedom, which includes the right to keep and bear arms, preserves life. Guns help to preserve both freedom and life. It is important to remember this when government officials threaten to enact laws to restrict our weapons.

At St. Louis Irish Arts has a mission to promote and preserve traditional Irish music, song and dance with special emphasis on the Irish harp and the use of the Irish language.
They perform 7 p.m. Friday at Southeastern Illinois College's George T. Dennis Visual and Performing Arts Center. Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for students. For details, you may call 252-5400 ext. 2487.
St. Louis Irish Arts Incorporated is the local branch of the Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann and was founded in 1973. The school grew out of a wish to train and educate musicians and dancers in the traditional music, song, and dances of Ireland. The branch started with weekly tin whistle lessons for adults and children.
In 1987, the first Missouri Irish dance teacher licensed to train dancers for competitions opened a school for music and dance. This school was, and continues to be, unique among Irish dancing schools in the United States because every student who joined the school was required to take an Irish music lesson on the tin whistle to complement their regular dance lessons. The school was named St. Louis Irish Arts School.
According to information from St. Louis Irish Arts, this magical blend of Irish music and dance lessons has fostered and produced some of the finest musicians and dancers worldwide. Today, St. Louis Irish Arts School is located in Maplewood, Mo. Students are accepted into the school's program from the age of four years old through adults.
The audience will see dancers in valuable, authentic and elaborately embroidered dresses that are handed down through sometimes an entire family of girls who attend the school.
This is the last performance in the Cultural Arts Series this year.

Canada takes opening match in final round of World League qualifying
KINGSTON, Ont.- Canada took the opening match of the final round of World League qualifying with a score of 3-1, 25-17, 25-22, 18-25, 25-23 to take the lead in the two-game series. Tomorrow night's game will decide who takes part in the 2012 edition of the World League, volleyball's richest tournament.
"It was a good win for us," said Glenn Hoag, Head Coach of Team Canada, "Puerto Rico has a great deal of experience, they are a team that plays with a lot of heart, and they have tremendous skills. They made us play the whole time and didn't let up. Our blocking was very good, as was our serving. Our serve reception and defense were not as good as they have been in the past few weeks, and we need to make adjustments for tomorrow's match."
Canada's dominance at the net was the determining factor, with 18 stuff blocks, compared to Puerto Rico's 9. Puerto Rico led in kills, 36-32, and service aces, 6-3.
"I'm happy with the win, especially the start," said Canadian captain Fred Winters of Vancouver, "we need to keep the same energy throughout the game; nothing is going to be easy. Puerto Rico is a scrappy team and returned a lot of balls. I'm very confident with the way we are playing, but we know we must remain 100% focused as things are not over yet and we still have to play a match tomorrow."
Canadian Gavin Schmitt, of Saskatoon, led all players with 30 points, including 23 kills, 5 stuff blocks and 2 service aces. Other notable Canadian performances included Toontje Van Lankvelt with 12 points, Fred Winters with 11 points, and Steve Brinkman with 10 points including 6 stuff blocks.
"I would like to congratulate Canada on their win," said Puerto Rico Head Coach Carlos Cardona. "While we improved as the game went on. Our start was erratic, especially in hitting. Canada's block hurt us quite a bit; tomorrow we will have to adjust."
Victor Rivera, Puerto Rico team captain, congratulated Team Canada on the win, and added, "they were prepared for the match and the series. We started cold, didn't execute very well, being down 11-2 is something that never happens. We took a long time to warm up, and they had exceptional blocking. We need to dig more balls to stop their offense. It's obvious they want to be in the World League, we had periods of good play, but not many."
Ezequiel Cruz led Puerto Rico with 17 points while Juan Figueroa and Jose Rivera added 15 and 14 points apiece.
Canada plays Puerto Rico Sunday, August 21st, at the K-Rock Centre in Kingston in the last, and defining qualification match for the 2012 World League.

"On the western side of Kauai is the ten-mile long Waimea Canyon, also called the 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific.' On milepost 18 is Kalalau Point—stand on the top of 4,000-foot tall cliffs that suddenly drop down to the sea to give you this view. It's pretty hard to take a bad picture of Kalalau in my opinion."
"I took this picture of a wave crashing against a rock in Oahu, Hawaii. The two-toned blue ocean against the blue sky captured my eye against the contrast of the rock."
"A view of Diamond Head from Waikiki Beach, near Honolulu, Hawaii."
"The sun is beginning to set behind some outrigger canoes at the Kihei Canoe Club in Maui, Hawaii."
"A view of the Mokulua Islands from Lanikai Beach on the island of Oahu. Lanikai is such a nice area and you can just walk up and down the beach all day."
"An interesting look at the Big Island coastline."
"Hanalei Bay on the North Shore of Kauai."
"Molokai is not an island many people go to when in Hawaii. Kalaupapa is a must see. You can fly in on a small plane or hikers can take the 1,200-plus uneven steps down from the park. On the east side there is a great old church and this wonderful view of Kalawao Bay."
"Secret Cove is one of our favorite beaches on Maui. It is so picturesque and idyllic, and also a favorite location for weddings. This beach definitely will not disappoint."
"Hang-gliding over waterfalls in Maui, Hawaii."
"This is in the National Botanical Forest on Kauai, and these are the trees featured in the Jurassic Park movie where they found dinosaur eggs in the roots of trees. "
"The road to Hana in Maui, Hawaii."
"My wife and I had been wanting to cross out a line in our bucket list so one day we just decided to take our backpacks and flew to Oahu, Hawaii. One huge experience we really treasure was hiking through miles of treacherous trails towards the Diamond Head mountain summit and getting a breathtaking overview of the Waikiki urban landscape facing the sea, as shown in this picture."
"I waited three rainy mornings at Kilauea on Hawaii's Big Island to catch this moment, when the sun came up over the ridge and caught the steam venting at Halema`uma`u. Then the rain set in again."
"'Opeaka'a Falls, Kauai."
"The sun finally shows above Haleakala, Maui."
"A black-sand beach on the road to Hana, Maui."
"The North Shore makes everyone who visits into an aspiring surfer. Of course, during the huge winter swells, it would have been stupid of us to try surfing for the first time there. We tried our best in the calmer waters near Honolulu, but we did enjoy watching those with more experience and less fear brave the massive waves off the North Shore."
"We took this sunset photo from a restaurant on the shore in Lahaina."
"A hula dancer, Hawaii."
"I was sitting on the beach at Kailua on Oahu, enjoying the warm sun and spectacular views, when I noticed a girl walking down the beach at the same time that two kite surfers were unfurling their kite. I grabbed my camera just in time to catch this fleeting moment."
"Statues at City of Refuge on the Big Island."
"A fire dancer, Maui."
"This is a view of Diamond Head on Oahu, as seen from the adjacent park in Waikiki. You can enjoy views of the crater in one direction and watch surfers riding the waves in the opposite direction."
"A windblown tree, Kauai."
"Laie Hawaii temple."
"Waimea Canyon, Kauai."

Morpeth Gathering
29th April- 1st May 2011
The Morpeth Gathering includes a norder pipe class in its annual competition. There were no entries last year and this competition, a unique opportunity to put the msuci of the border pipews before a more general public, will be lost if this event is not better supported this year.
from the frestival website: [the site has yet to be updated with this year's competition details, but the piping class is usually on the Staurday, early in the afternoon]
"The festival includes a vast array of competitions including crafts, performance and writing. Events of local interest nave been added to the programme of concerts, singarounds, barn dance, storytelling. theatre and street performance which includes a young people's pageant as part of the Border Cavalcade.
The emphasis of the Gathering is firmly upon the native traditions of Northumberland and. whilst there is plenty of scope for traditional music from all over the British Isles within the festival, the wealth of local culture is well to the fore. This is not blind parochialism by any means, but an attempt to maintain and spread the time-honoured distinctive and worthwhile features of Northumberland and its heritage.
The Border Cavalcade is a re-enactment of the return of Lord Greystoke from the Battle of Otterburn in 1388. The Cavalcades celebrate neither victory nor defeat, but rather the spirit of Borderers caught up in the web of everlasting conflict at a frontier. Led by Border half-long pipers the Cavalcade and a a pageant created by children from local schools, leaves St James's Church, Copper Chare at approx. 10.45am and arrives at the Town Hall at 11 am to be welcomed by the costumed Morpeth Gadgy (the Town Bailiff) and the Mayor of Castle Morpeth. The army's flag is waved ceremonially, rosettes are presented and the Cavalcade processes to the end of Bridge Street, then turns and processes back to the Town Hall.
The pageant is followed by street performances throughout the day.."

Lightness of Being: Samantha Boardman
Jacques Grange's day is never quite done. On his way into the sprawling yet cozy dining room at the Mark, the hotel on Manhattan's Upper East Side that Grange revitalized in 2008, he pauses to tell the manager that he thinks it's time to update the bar's dappled pony-skin-print upholstery. "I want to keep the print—it's fun," Grange says. "But more texture. Maybe fur," he ponders over two "sunny-side eggs," his favorite American breakfast.
Known for his mix of rococo opulence and tasteful understatement, the design legend counts projects from the residential (for the Lauder family, Princess Caroline of Monaco, and François Pinault) to the curatorial (an exhibition at the Fondation Pierre Bergé—Yves Saint Laurent) among his chicest feats. Though Grange's interiors evoke comfortable affluence, he avoids ostentation. "I don't like anything too shiny, too gold-y, too bling-bling. I love the balance between the very simple and the very sophisticated." And the exquisitely referential: For Yves Saint Laurent's Château Gabriel on the Normandy coast, Grange created rooms around different Proustian characters. Yet as Gallic as the designer may be (his English is peppered with doncs and voilàs), his reach is international—he's off next to restore a Richard Neutra house in Los Angeles, and after that, it's on to London. But ask him his favorite place to work? "I prefer everywhere!" he exclaims. "Do you prefer black or white?" he asks himself playfully. "I prefer both!"

"The shoe is beautiful. It looks great on and with outfits. The only problem is that the strap cuts in on the side of the big and little toes closer to the ball of the foot. I bought some moleskin to put inside the shoe in hopes it will help. I haven't tried it yet, but I have hopes it will. I'll still wear them because they look so great - I just have to be prepared for sore feet."

Local coach Wallace Ketron honored
BRISTOL, Va. - Former Blountville baseball coach Wallace Ketron was honored by his former players Saturday.
Ketron coached baseball and football at Blountville Central High School from 1963-1972.
He went on to become the superintendent of Sullivan County schools until he retired in 1992.
Over 70 former players and fans turned out Saturday at Sugar Hollow Park in Bristol to honor him with a lifetime achievement award for his contributions in coaching and teaching.
Ketron told News 5 WCYB he couldn't believe the turnout.
"I'm totally surprised," Ketron said.
"I thought maybe we might have five or six boys get together, but I couldn't believe it when I got here today. I had some of the finest young players anybody can ever hope to coach. I hope I challenged them to be good citizens, and they have been."
The 79-year-old Ketron spent over 33 years coaching in East Tennessee.

Very cute!
"These sneakers are very cute and when my daughter's foot grows a little bigger, will fit her perfectly. It is so hard to buy shoes for children because depending on the shoe, this size might fit her just right and then in another shoe/style, might be too big. My daughter is sort of in between sizes at this point, so, we will wait for her to grow into them."

Mighty Boosh Live 2008
Show type: Tour
This show has not yet got a description.
, Noel Fielding
Original Review:
What a shambles of half-baked ideas, self-indulgent performances and scrappy structure. But what persuasive charm they have to get away with it… just about.
Noel Fielding and Julian Barrett seem aware that they're coasting, too, and try to make a virtue of their shabbiness as they cheekily banter with each other, and the audience, in the endearingly old-fashioned front-of-curtain shtick. Behind the silver hotpants and electro-psychedelic sensibilities the Mighty Boosh are the traditional straightman/fool double-act, Morecambe and Wise as dragged through Camden Market.
Plenty of comedians want to be rock stars, and this pair indulge that fantasy more than most, with a full band, The Ungrateful Dead, backing their distinctive 'crimp' raps, or performing their bouncy ska-influenced tribute to eels. The difference with the Boosh is that their audience want them to be rock stars, too, so this show is greeted with the mania of idol-worship from their mostly young fans.
They load up with merchandise from the well-stocked stalls, yell out adoring, but distracting, questions to their heroes on stage, and enthusiastically whoop and holler on cue. This two-way love affair affords Noel and Julian a lot of latitude to muck about, and they take full advantage of it. There's a feeling that more preparation has gone into the impressive set design than any material. Perhaps the drain of Noel's indie-rock-star lifestyle and Julian's new fatherhood hasn't left much time for writing.
So what they offer up is a simple parade of their quirky characters, each doing a flimsy set piece, often cobbled together from old TV scripts, and allowing the fans to tick off the boxes in their I-Spy Book Of Boosh characters. This isn't the delicately constructed, self-contained world of surreal fantasy they are so good at creating, but a simple roll-call.
Rich Fulcher's Bob Fossil, in pink legwarmers and three-sizes-too-small powder blue safari shirt leads some daft audience participation; the eight-tentacled Tony Harrison introduces his own chat show before the segment, possibly by design, disintegrates into Fielding bitching about the discomfort of the costume; shamen Naboo and his simian sidekick Bollo become hip-hop playas; and Crackfox is briefly despicable, before being wheeled offstage again.
Between it all, Noel and Julian, nominally 'in character' as Vince Noir and Howard Moon, fanny about a bit, living off the love of the audience. But fannying about is what they're good at, and they are so very, very likeable.
In part two the pair threaten to throw some structure around this nonsense, when Barrett pompously presents a play wot he wrote, further underlining those Eric and Ernie comparisons in which the Boosh can only come out worse. His bleak, futuristic play in which he, modestly, plays a messianic figure in a post-apocalyptic distopia is, naturally enough, undermined by the upbeat and cheeky Noel, who wants to add some disco sparkle to this depressing scenario.
The whole show is very lightweight, though it is often mischievously fun if you're in on the joke – and never more so than when mocking the Honey Monster for plagiarising their crimp style in the Sugar Puffs adverts. Sometimes a wonderful line will peek through the nonsense, too. Early on, for instance, Fielding pretends he can't understand the Sheffield accent by explaining, poetically: 'North of Watford, it all sounds like bubbles to me…'
But such moments of brilliant invention stand out because they are rare. The creative ingenuity which made the Boosh a cult success is mostly put on hold as the pair simply bask in the adulation they've built up. They've surely earned it, but it would be shame if they rested on their laurels.

How can you people say that you walked out during the Mighty Boosh Live? It was the funniest thing ever, i was laughing so much that my face ached. It was actually great. It was hilarious, well the people that walked out, you're very very stupid
Rich - 27/01/2009
I went to see them in Brighton in December and loved it! I am still quite new to the Boosh and only really got into them during the 3rd series so I had no pre-conceived ideas. The only other time I saw them was at the Boosh Festival at the Hop Farm which was a blast but there was not a lot of actual comedy then, more like a concert (as expected). The live show however was really funny and I went with my brother who has never watched more than a couple of episodes and he loved it too! It seems that the hard core fans don't rate this show too much but for a newbie like me, I thought it was great! Oh, and for those on here who think this type of comedy is aimed at the kids, I totally disagree - I'm in my 30s, married with children and yet I can appreciate good comedy.
Matt - 06/01/2009
Sad to say I have to agree with the review. I left at the interval, something I've never done previously. I agree with FH below re series 3 not being anywhere near as good as either the radio or previous two TV installments. It struck me a being poorly written in comparison. Perhaps Noel had got a bit carried away with his own fame and Julian too preoccupied with fatherhood (not a criticism). So I was a bit wary of the 2008/09 tour but still got tickets in the hope that it would be even half the show the previous tour was. It's not. ll the comments re the rock'n'roll element and self-indulgence I agree with totally. Noel and Julian appear happy to lazily exist on the blind idolisation of kids. Lads, you're supposed to be a fecking comedy act, not the Stones.
Lissy - 30/12/2008
We went to see the NIA show in Brum.. and as a huge fan of the series I was anticipating something special.. What a disappointment - lazy, uninspired, and self indulgent, it was as though the boys expected their very presence to be enough to carry such a 'low calorie' show. I imagine the younger, less discerning audience members will have got more out of it than those of us a little old for idol worship... and we were gutted we wasted our time and money to see the show. Think carefully before buying your tickets... it could ruin the beautiful relationship you already have with the Boosh, and that would be a shame.
We saw the show at the 02, or rather we saw half of it. We left during the interval. I've always been a huge fan of the Mighty Boosh but unfortunately we were just bored. What a waste of time and money.
A1ic3 - 11/12/2008
I loved the show
Jennnnnnnnnni - 08/12/2008
Best night ever. Boosh owned that room, haha! Being within walking distance of Noel and Julian couldn't have been any better. I don't understand how there are bad reviews from people on here, it was amazing. I want to go again and again.
Elle Delargy - 29/11/2008
Saw Bournemouth show twice last week - loved it. joyful experience. Maybe not slick and not their best material, but a fab evening, great atmosphere and loved the tunes at the end too - I am past 20 something (sadly) but am enjoying the Boosh enjoying their success and found show really funny. Would go again if I had the chance!
Cave Raver - 19/11/2008
Checked out the Boosh last night in Plymouth. They've been good right from the radio series, throughout all the TV series, Secret Policeman's Ball and the previous tour where I laughed all the way through. Probably the best comedy act I've ever seen. However got to say that this tour is poor. I've never walked out in an interval but going home seemed to me more exciting. Yes there were some good laughs at times but the majority of the time the humour was thin. Noel Fielding did his best through a self confessed severe cold as did the rest of the cast but that didn't help the content. Yeah the songs were good but there was no clever comedy and real weirdness that is the trademark of the Boosh. The whole thing seemed to revolve around how massive and iconic the characters were. Sorry guys but I was really disappointed. In some ways I hope there is not a fourth series and tour. Unless something new and exciting comes up it's a waste of money.
crackedmirrorfox - 16/11/2008
If you love the Boosh then tear up your ticket and enjoy the DVDs the live show 2008 is a sad sham of a mockery of a mockasham. Sorry
Becky - 09/11/2008
Man I never in a million years thought I'd walk out of a Mighty Boosh-related event massively disappointed. And I'm afraid to say - gutted to say, actually - that I came out of this show thinking 'I don't know if they can come back from this'. Can't remember any golden moments in the show that really stuck out as being comedy genius - apart from maybe when Nabu was introduced as his new character - which lasted all of 5 minutes to fill a gap. I went last Thursday with my friend, sister, cousin and dad - who all love it as much as me - and we all agreed that this event should have been promoted as a gig rather than a comedy show, thanks to a good half hour - 45 minutes of songs altogether. And not even particularly funny songs. In fact, at one point, after soup, bouncy bouncy, nanageddon, i did a shit on your mom (basically a continuous stream of songs without pause for funny stuff) etc etc, Noel asked the audience if we wanted some more... and I have to say, I wasn't bothered if they stayed on stage or buggered off there and then. In fact, quite embarrassingly, when they walked off stage leaving an unmissable hint of an encore, there weren't any screams for more, for anyone to come back - in fact, people stood up to leave, despite the fact that the lights hadn't come on etc. Absolutely no story until part way into the second half, and that only lasted about 45 minutes. Such a shame that they didn't play on some of the ideas that would have made for hilarious viewing, instead of plugging their self-assured "rock star" statuses. Could have been so good, but when you actually feel yourself growing more and more fed up and wondering how your mates are getting on in the pub quiz you missed to come here, you know that it just isn't. I just wonder now if series 4 is in the pipeline - and what the hell it will be like! Sorry guys, I love ya - but get your act together and get on with what you do best!
Sarah - 09/11/2008
You hit the nail on the head, Steve. Glad I hadn't read your review before I went along to the Nottingham gig last night - but you've pretty much described my experience. Won't change my love of the TV show but I don't plan on making the effort to see a huge live show again.
ak - 02/11/2008
Went to see the Boosh at the NIA, Birmingham 31/10/08, I have to say what a load of toss, are they just taking the punters £s? I saw the Boosh three times on the last tour, superb. I'll not be going to a live gig again.
Michelle Madgett - 31/10/2008
Ok, so after reading these reviews I went to the show last night with an open mind and... Wow! What a fab performance from all involved! As for these negative reviews: Under rehearsed? I think you will find that is their performance style, they give out an air of spontaneity of what is obviously well-written & well-rehearsed material, and whoever said they thought The Mighty Boosh were a comedy duo not a band, The Mighty Boosh don't just consist of Noel & Julian, look at the bigger picture! The show was superb! I loved it! I got to see all of my favourite characters, hear all of my favourite songs, with some cheeky crimps thrown in for good measure of course! Admitedly, unlike the first live show, there was no storyline but it was still a thoroughly entertaining evening. To all of those who are yet to enter the world of the Mighty Boosh Live, please ignore these other negative reviews, you are in for a treat!
Clare J - 29/10/2008
I have been a fan of the Boosh since what feels like the dawning of time. However, I have to agree, I'm starting to feel that the boys are starting to take things too far and possibly themselves too seriously. However, I came to this show with an open mind. I wanted to love it and renew my full fan status. The review, for me captures the show exactly. The first half was not a show, but rather a jumble of characters with no real purpose, with such scripted segments that it pained me to watch their supposedly "off the cuff" remarks. In Bristol they commented to the crowd that it wasn't panto, but from where I was sat it honestly was. That said, I did laugh heartily when the pair genuinely forgot lines and dealt with heckles from the audience. That genius is there, it just seems they've been too busy to use it. After the break, I actually enjoyed Howard's "serious play" as it was something new and original, but sections like the Future Sailors entrance and the Eels sketch seem to have been simply lifted from the Boosh Festival. It feels to me that the Noir/Moon vs Fielding/Barratt line has become so blurred that the original concept has become lost. Hosting the show as an evening with "guests" completely separates them all from the characters they're meant to play. It removes the relationship between characters (and how they actually relate to each other in the context of Boosh) to the point that they simply become Noel and Julian dressed up. For example, at previous shows, Rudy existed in the context of his psychadelic forest and was someone Vince met on a journey. Here, Tony Harrison suddenly appears to have a Parkinson show, and there's no reference to his shamanic context at all. All this said, as the show comes to a musical end, I do find myself on a high. Granted, much of this is delight at Dave Brown's Nannageddon vocals and stage presence as he leaps about the stage throwing rock horns and thoroughly letting loose. I came to the conclusion that the Boosh target audience is no longer the die-hard fans, who pore over subtle references and enjoy the hidden layers of previous work, but instead the mainstream or casual viewer who hasn't seen everything Boosh have produced - quite probably because it's only recently that they've been allowed to stay up that late.
Michelle Madgett - 28/10/2008
I am going on Thursday and am little disheartened by these poor reviews. Having thoroughly enjoyed all 3 series many times, it has become apparent that you can get more from each episode each time you watch it... perhaps the live show just isn't getting appreciated due to it only being viewed as a 'one-off', meaning the typical boosh genius & humour, not to mention it's underlying wit is going unnoticed?!! Will let you know what I think Friday :-)
Jo - 24/10/2008
It was very refreshing to read a slightly more grown-up review; I agree with this totally. Kids loved the show, and ran down to the front to mosh at the end, but I felt a little ripped off: a sentiment that was quite clearly widespread amongst older members of the audience - and by older, I mean mid- to late-20s upwards. I saw the first live show and was star struck by it - this one felt cobbled together, lazy and self-indulgent.
Jessica W. - 22/10/2008
Correct me if I am wrong, but The Mighty Boosh are a comedy duo not a band? Sell your tickets while you still can these two just want to rinse you for money and give nothing in return. I hope the press give them the critical mauling they deserve.
Oh my goodness. If anyone has tickets for the Boosh and you're up in the circle or gods you may as well tear them up. Noel and Julian pretty much refuse to pay attention to stage markings so you won't see a thing for a lot of the performance. Havihng said that, I think that actually made it better for me. I loved the Boosh when I bought these (very expensive) tickets a year ago, but since then I've seen series 3, or 'Noel and His Celebrity Friends' and this, I won't be back. Sorry boys, you've lost it.
Kelly - 21/10/2008
I went last night (Oct 20th). I loved the first live show (albeit only on DVD) because it brought together all the best bits from the first two series. This new show, in comparison, had very little to go on. The music was fun but it was disappointingly low on laughs.
Disgruntled - 21/10/2008
Went to see the show last night (20th October). Very disappointed, and agree with a number of the comments referring to self-indulgence and under-rehearsal. Walked out at the end of the first half. Love the series, but will think twice about going to see the Boosh live again.
Celeste - 21/10/2008
Over 16 limit? Is that true? Anyone know?
LouLou - 20/10/2008
I thought the second half got going somewhat, but was a bit underwhelmed by the whole experience. It's a shame as I'm a huge Boosh fan....
Lewis Cook - 19/10/2008
The quality of this show is dependant on how you view. As a general entertainment/variety show. It works alright. The music was good. As a comedy show, which is what I paid my £30 for, beyond terrible. Lazy, underwritten and under rehearsed. Moments of genuine laughter (i.e. Howard's inner monologue) were few and far between, most came from swearing far too frequently for my liking. Fun? Yes. Funny? My lord no.
di - 17/10/2008
It is fantastic. So many underlying jokes, and did anyone notice Fleetwood Mac being played at the beginning. Cleverly written but you do have to pay attention. Mainly series three with a bit extra. Just what I expected. Loved it. Band was excellent!
Kris - 17/10/2008
The brainwashed fans will love this one. Mighty Boosh will have a lot to do to win my heart back. Poor show.

Totally disagree with the below comments about the live show not being up to scratch. The show is brilliantly fun and I'm sure I'm not the only one who loved it.
Timmy the Knees - 07/10/2008
Very poor. Must be laughing all the way to bank after duping us fans at £25 a pop. "I know we dont have to do anything just do a show and tell of various bits from our hit TV show, the punters will love it!" very clever boys.
neil francis - 17/09/2008
It hurts me to say this, but the 2008 live show was very, very disappointing.
Rosmy - 12/12/2007
It has got a 16 year old limit hasn't it? I mean you are only allowed in if you are 16 and over?

Infiniti began with three vehicles (the Q45, M30, and G20), but through the 1990s they slowly added new models and variations to their impressive line. Late in the decade, Infiniti introduced the QX4, a luxury SUV based on the Nissan Pathfinder platform. This vehicle was something of a breakthrough as it gave Infiniti a high-end luxury SUV with an impressive off-road package to compete with the likes of Land Rover.
Despite their success, Infiniti struggles in the shadow of its Asian competition, often selling far fewer cars than Acura and Lexus. However, the introduction of a mid-sized sedan with an affordable price tag (the G35) in the mid-2000s gave Infiniti a boost in market share. The G35 was followed by the highly-successful FX SUV, a high-performance vehicle with quality options and an affordable price-tag (for a luxury auto-manufacturer). The M-series and G-series remain the most popular options for buyers, and both feature hearty engines.
Infiniti's line of coupes and sedans often fly under the radar. In comparison, Infiniti does well in terms of performance, especially when comparing engines. Infiniti is known for robust power-plants which generate a lot of raw power and torque. In fact, Infiniti often outshines the competition in regards to engine performance. With twenty-nine models to choose from, buyers might have trouble deciding what type of vehicle, and which model is right for them.

For the second straight season, the Eldorado High School girls' golf team is going to the state tournament.
Finishing behind eventual Class 1A sectional champion Nashville (340) and second place finisher Massac County (345), Eldorado shot a 355 led by Taylor and Ashton Goodley.
Taylor Goodley's 73, good enough for second place, was just two strokes off Shawn Rennegarbe's 71, who took medalist honors.
"Taylor played a very good round," head coach Greg Goodley said. "Effingham Country Club was a very tough course, but Taylor played it very smart and executed her game plan."
Ashton Goodley carded an 80, where her head coach said she did a good job of scrambling.
"She did what she had to do to keep herself in the top four overall and finished strong with two birdies on the last two holes.
Taylor Aldridge finished with a 99 and Sam Mings shot a 103 for Eldorado.
Playing as individuals at Monday's sectional, but not advancing were the Harrisburg trio of Alexa Burtis (94), Skylar Street (99) and Gabriella Tison (124).
"Alexa and Skylar both opened with 51's on the difficult Effingham Country Club," Harrisburg head coach Mike Tison said. "But rallied with better back nines. It was Alexa's second visit to sectionals and Skylar and Gabriella's first visit. All three worked hard this year to improve all aspects of their game.
At the boys' sectional Saturday in Salem, Harrisburg's Alexander Tison shot an 80, while Dillon Sreet carded an 82.
"It took a 76 at the sectional at Salem to qualify for state," Tison said. "Both Alexander and Dillon just made too many bogeys to advance. However, they both finished near the top and represented Harrisburg well."

Set of 2
by Skovby
At A Glance:
We dare you to find a dining room this chair wouldn't look good in. We'd put money on that dare, but that would mean we'd have to really know each other, maybe well enough to have a meal together ... which would be really comfortable if we were sitting in SM 52 Dining Chairs, truth be told.
What's To Like:
- Open, curved back creates a very comfortable sitting pocket, and gives good support no matter which way you turn in the chair
- The SM 52's wood joinery is incredibly sturdy, so you can count on this chair lasting a good long time
- Classic, contemporary, modern ... the look of this chair is just right for any kind of decor because of its material integrity and classic construction
What's Not to Like:
- It's expensive, y'all - but remember that you're getting a really solid set of 2 chairs
- If you don't want upholstery on your chair, then this one's not your cup of tea - unless you can bring yourself to like a comfortable seat
The Bottom Line:
This set of two SM 52 dining chairs is a great choice for those who appreciate sitting comfortably - and stylishly - around the dinner table.
- 20.5" w x 29.5" h x 20.5" d
- Oval-shaped legs add a soft element
- Solid wood or wood veneer - your choice
- Seat is upholstered in your fabric or leather choice

GDB 9: We don't need to tell you
October 30 2008 02:26PM
We don't need to tell you that the Mighty Oil are going on a road trip scheduled to last until March 2017. Why the Oilers agreed to a schedule that would have them play the next nine seasons on the road is anyone's guess but we would think that Goatie McGrebeshkov screwed the pooch somehow. That shady dirt squirrel.
We don't need to tell you that this road trip will dictate how the season is going to go for the Oil. It's getting real already, only eight games in.
We don't need to tell you that sooner or later we can't help but think the Oil will shake off this slump and karate kick some team in half.
We don't need to tell you that the only thing sadder than ANOTHER game on PPV tonight is the fact we'll be paying to watch the game. Again. Even though we're still wanting a refund on the last PPV two games.
Man are we suckers.
And we certainly don't need to tell you we will be at the ninth consecutive Justice League meeting and pyramid scheme recruitment drive. It's during the game and it's here on the Nation.
We will see you there. Suckers.
October 30 2008, 08:37PM
Who will support me in a bloody coup to take control of the team? The King has failed us.
October 30 2008, 08:37PM
I'm going to get drunk and take a dump on the red mile. The Oilers can lose and make me cry, but my hate for the falmes will never change.

Hand carved cemetery monuments New York New Jersey by Supreme Memorials
Hand Carved monuments that Supreme Memorials has erected over the years. We are able to hand carve any figure or figures into a granite memorial. Here are some samples. Supreme Memorials is located in Brooklyn New York.When choosing a family monument there are many cemetery monument design choices available today but none are as renowned as a hand carved cemetery memorial. Here are a few pictures of hand carved cemetery monuments that Supreme Memorials has created over the years in cemeteries such as Green-wood cemetery Brooklyn New York , St. Johns Cemetery in Queens New York, pictures of hand carved headstones in Resurrection Cemetery , Hand carved cemetery monuments in St. Charles Cemetery long island New York just to name a few.
Types of Monuments offered by Supreme Memorials, Inc.
Upright headstones' weight can vary. These headstones stand tall from the ground up. Upright headstones can be made out of various materials such as granite, brownstone, glass or marble. Most upright monuments today are crafted out of granite due to the natural strength and durability of the material.
Flat Headstones
Flat headstones are often referred to as ground-level headstones or grave markers. These headstones are flat and on the ground. They can be up to a couple inches off the ground. Flat grave markers can be used as foot stone to a larger family monument. With new technology these grass markers can truly tell a life story.
Bronze Monuments
Most Bronze monuments are grass markers. These flush markers are made out of cast bronze. Some of the bronze cemetery markers are doweled and pinned into a granite base. Bronze is also used for statuary work on cemetery memorials. Bronze lettering is now once again being offered for use on granite cemetery gravestones.
Obelisks are tall and have square bases. The obelisk tapers upward toward the sky. Sometimes the top of the obelisk can have a decoration such as a statue, pyramid or ball. In many cases instead of a decoration at the top of the capital there will be an urn. The obelisk is made up of a base, capital and shaft. Obelisk heights can range from very short to more than 90 inches.
Slant Style Monuments
There are many variations of slant style grave markers. Cemeteries have specific rules and regulations about the sizes of slant that can be used. A slant monument is normally low to the ground it can be one to two feet high the polished face sloping at about a 45 degree angle. The slant memorials are always supported by a foundation. And a headstone base can raise the slant marker off the ground as to not hide the lettering from the planting or desirable of a different look. The inclined inscription surface of slant headstone not only contributes to the prominence of the inscription, but also, unlike the flat or flush marker it sheds the rainfall and nature, which keeps it clean
Bench Style Monuments
Bench Style Monuments are a style of memorization where the family can use the monument to have a place to sit and reflect at the grave site. There are many types of benches used in memorialization of loved ones. Bench gravestones can be made in all shapes and sizes. Benches are also used for fund raising sites, accents to estate plots and in the interior or exterior of private family mausoleums. Benches can also be used for entombing cremated remains of your loved ones.
Private Family Mausoleums
