Johnson, who now fronts the Jamaican dub-inspired freestyle funk/soul outfit Dub Narcotic Sound System (so named after Johnson's Dub Narcotic recording studio, located at the K Records headquarters), has long been an enigmatic benefactor of countless bands, conventions, and the D.I.Y. spirit.
Johnson was interviewed for this article, but was characteristically vague and distant with his responses (example: when questioned about the documentary -- "Ohhhh, yeah.
In these formative years, Johnson's band Beat Happening was materializing those same qualities through the jangly and simplistic upbeat music that they played, though the lyrics concerned considerably darker subject matter, setting the standard for the paradoxical synthesis that can be seen in the work of current bands like Quasi.

 TCS Daily - Razor Wars and the Cutting Edge of Technology
By the 1880s there were various types of so-called safety razors incorporating the Henson design but using what was then the state of the art for blades short wedges of forged steel, which dulled easily and were difficult to re-sharpen.
"If my razor wasnt good enough for me to use I wouldn't ask you to try it!" He soon proved that there was a pent up demand for a safer, easier shave, without the morning ritual of honing and stropping a blade to coax it back to some semblance of sharpness.
The articulated razors, beginning with Gillettes Sensor (13 moving parts, 22 new patents), took the personal skill of shaving (wrist action, blade angle etc.) and incorporated it as much as possible into the technology of the shaver itself.

 September 11, Social Theory, and Blowback:
In retrospect, the events of September 11 can be seen as a textbook example of “blowback,” a concept developed in a book with this title by Chalmers Johnson (2000) who uses it to describe the unintended consequences of aggressive military and covert policies, a shorthand term for describing that a nation reaps what it sows.
As Johnson notes: “The term ‘blowback,’ which officials of the Central Intelligence Agency first invented for their own internal use, is starting to circulate among students of international relations.
In addition to Johnson 2000 that I am utilizing to provide a conceptual overview of the concept of blowback and to interpret the September 11 terrorist acts, I am also drawing upon a series of studies of U.S. foreign policy and Afghanistan, including Rashid 2001; Cooley 2000; Kepel 2002; Achbar 2002; and Vidal 2003.

 Andrew Clem's Politics archives, 2002
The prairie state of South Dakota was apparently an exception to the nationwide trend, as Democrat Tim Johnson seems to have held on to his seat, by a tiny margin of only 527 votes.
Johnson's win was one of the few consolations for Daschle, magnified by the fact that President Bush has invested so much time in stumping for Thune in South Dakota.
Given the fact that Vermillion is Johnson's home town (and mine, for that matter), and taking into account this college town's liberal leanings, Thune probably could not have expected to match the virtual tie that he achieved in the statewide race.

 Review: Konica Hexar   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Man, I am always impressed with how sharp the lens is. I also love how most people barley care i'm shooting since it doesn't look expensive (I also put gaffer tape on some parts of the camera to make it look even less appealing).
Joel Brink, February 08, 2000; 11:27 P.M. After reading this review I'm tempted to give up my old Canon QL 17s, but the slow shutter speed of the Hexar makes me nervous.
The sharpness, clarity, and even 'three dimensional' quality of the images always impress me. This '3D' quality has to do with how the out of focus parts of the image are rendered.

While a number of SDS leaders opposed Johnson, they were unwilling to take a public stand against Johnson, who was running against Republican Barry Goldwater.
Many activists argued that in the 1964 election, Johnson, running as a peace candidate, was the "lesser evil." The national SDS leadership refused to take a position on the election, while SDS's Political Education Project supported campaigning and voting for Johnson, in effect giving Johnson their endorsement.

Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, and Elton John are all unmistakable muses in this recording.
Now a bit more focused, a bit more learned, and a bit more insane, Moorhead has graduated on to the sorcerous sound that audiences currently identify him with- his signature elixir of pop, jazz, rock, and hip-hop.

For the first time since starting his own project in the P-Funk extended family, Collins seems to have focused intently on his own material, which means that these seven songs lack the occasionally meandering jams that weighed down earlier Bootsy's Rubber Band albums.
