Nixon would win, "but the thought that the American people are going to give Mr. Nixon and [...] Paul Simon in MN on 5/2 (photo by Darren Tutt) "...Mr. Simon, 69, has a preexisting relationship with vintage gospel music, as he hinted elsewhere in the show. (A double-time rave-up coda in "Kodachrome," released in 1973, plunged straight into... **What's the News:** In another glorious reminder of how weird nature really is, it's time to get ready for the swarm: This May, after spending 13 years underground, huge populations of cicadas will emerge in the southern U.S. to molt, sing their riotous mating tunes, and breed. It's a brief coda to their long adolescence in burrows 30 cm beneath the soil--by July, they will be dead, and their children will be beginning their years of exile from the surface. **What's the Context: ** While there are plenty of cicada species that send a generation to the surface every year, cyclical cicadas (of the genus _Magicicada_) come out en masse after 13 or 17 years. Scientists believe that this strategy evolved as a way to overwhelm predators--when there are so many cicadas around at one time, a good many of them will probably survive. Cyclical cicadas live in tribes called broods that occupy certain geographic areas (see map)--the brood that's swarming this year, called brood XIX or the Great Southern Brood. It was last seen in 1998. (Go ahead, check the math.) Scientists have puzzled for decades over the fact that some ... As pop MCs go, we've scarcely had it better. In both its strengths and weaknesses, _thecontrollorsphere_ is suggestive of a band in need of some renewal. A truly gorgeous collection of sounds, flourishes and fresh, vibrant ideas. Coda. Reid makes a connection with an autistic child that could help the BAU find the boy's missing parents. Meanwhile, Prentiss ropes in two former Interpol colleagues to hunt down an old nemesis. Making all-electric vehicles is easier if you haven't been building gas guzzlers for the better part of a century: That's the mantra put firth by representatives from Tesla and CODA. Both said today at GigaOM's Green:Net conference that there is space for indie EV car makers. Review: Swedish detective master Henning Mankell gives poignant coda to beloved Kurt Wallander From the China-sourced Coda to Hyundai and Volkswagen, a rundown of the flood of plug-ins and hybrids set to hit the market. Supposedly based on a true story and allegedly filmed in a single extended take in real time, this occasionally jolting but largely unconvincing Uruguayan horror flick spends 78 minutes (and a coda) with Laura, a pretty young woman, and her father in a deserted, ill-lit country house that they once lived in. You've heard of the unreliable narrator. This film features an unreliable observer, as well as a lot of blood. * Horror * Thriller * World cinema * Uruguay Philip French guardian.co.uk (C) Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds We've become an old, rich country, spending $4 on elderly people for every $1 we spend on those under 18 It was the 1950s, and we were getting fatter, lazier and puffing away on cigarettes (often as the coda to a meal filled with saturated fats). Then along comes this lone, indefatigable voice telling us -- with great kindness -- to cut it out. The Steinway mansion in Astoria, Queens, is up for sale after the death of its owner, Michael Halberian. Mubarak's forced retreat from power serves as a humiliating coda to one of the Mideast's most resilient political careers. (03-02) 05:06 PST BEIJING, China (AP) -- A startup California developer of electric cars said Wednesday its first model will be manufactured in China and go on sale in the United States this year. CODA Automotive Inc.'s... Last Saturday marked one of the saddest days of my professional life. The evening concert that took place at the Bedford Corn Exchange was the swan song for one of Britain's finest and oldest youth orchestras. So we have this in perspective, this is not only an orchestra that could boast alumni in every professional orchestra, or one that could proudly talk of tours to Russia, the Czech Republic, Budapest, Cyprus, Italy. It was also an orchestra that gave performances of Mahler symphonies that would please many seasoned orchestras, and one that was broadcast on Radio 3. Bedford Youth Orchestra was no ordinary youth orchestra; this was a gem. Its long-term conductor and architect, Michael Rose, conducted the last concert and gave a moving speech before the final piece was performed. What does this say for our country, and our Conservative-led government? That they could allow such a resource to be lost, and lost for ever, is far more than a dereliction of duty – even a banana republic would blush at the callousness of letting something so good and worthwhile go in the name of short-term cuts (Fiona Millar, Education, 12 April). Yours in disbelief, **James ... The 'post-PC' world – where smartphones and tablets become a more important way to interact – means fewer PC sales. And it turns out you can calculate how much that will cost very directly "Imagining a post-PC world ... at this juncture, given all that has transpired in computing and communications, it's important that all of us do precisely what our competitors and customers will ultimately do: close our eyes and form a realistic picture of what a post-PC world might actually look like. How would customers accomplish the kinds of things they do today? In what ways would it be better? In what ways would it be worse, or just different?" Who do you think said that? Steve Jobs, in his coda to the unveiling of the iPad 2 last week? Nope. What Jobs said was this: "Our competitors are looking at this [tablet market] like it's the next PC market. That is not the right approach to this. These are post-PC devices that need to be easier to use than a PC, more intuitive. The hardware and software need to intertwine more than they do on a PC. We think we're on ... A look inside the wild world of the Consumer Electronics Show
