The Last Sound

This Thursday marks the next Step Right Up performance. The original play, which these Brooklyn high school kids wrote, is called The Last Sound. It's free. It's moody & dark. It's a great way to spend a wintery evening. There's a battle scene. There's a romantic scene. There's animated drawings that we'll be projecting. There's trash can drumming and piano music. And I'm sure it would mean a lot to these kids to have a full house for their one and only performance. If you're free that night- its gonna be a lot of fun Thursday, December 9th 6:30pm The Last SoundCreated & Performed by The Green School Step Right Up Programwith an opening dance performance by the school's dance...

Tuesday night on Jimmy Kimmel live local girl Nicki Minaj rocked a full cage dress. Who else could look so hot in this piece?! Loving it xx <font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><a href="http://www.chrishabana.com/">Chris Habana</a></font>

Things We Dug in '10 | Must Read Books

Gary Shteyngart's is an optimistic pessimist.  His tragic and humorous 3rd novel, Super True Love Story, visualizes the future as bright, yet dimly lit. In a post-post-post-post 9/11 New York, gentrification is real and digital ranking is even realer. It's a hilarious nightmare where adults are obsessed with youth, purchase "onion-skin jeans" and are glued to their personal technical devices (called "apparats" in the future) at bars (reads familiar right?!") . Shteyngart's attention to detail is incredible. The novel is an example of the constant struggle between humanity and technology. In a world where information is readily available, Gary Sheyngart illustrates what might happen when we neglect one ideal for another. Jay-Z's Decoded helps you read between the lines. His memoir details...
