...best albums, the winsome songwriting team of Chris Collingwood and Adam Schlesinger returns with a14-track album about being either lost or on the go. It is fed with the Byrds, Simon and Garfunkel, Steve Miller, Devo, the Cars; it is dished out with lush harmony vocals, broad keyboard textures, generous acoustic guitars, rich percussion tracks, even string, and delightfully subtle twists of sounds. Fountains of Wayne are hip, well-bred and deft at slinging pop culture saturation through suburban rockers, witty ballads and sincere lovesongs with equal flair. The lyrics are sometimes distant, but that does not detract from...
Everyone agrees that the most effective way to monitor kids' online activity is...to monitor it. Literally.

The first sounded at one moment like the bustling "Of Foreign Lands and Peoples" from Schumann's "Scenes from Childhood," and the second had the robust smack of Schubert laendler. Zimerman was subtle at highlighting the ternary...
...despite his adulant attitude toward his wave keyboard, keyboard tray and ergonomic chair, Suleiman does see more at work than a simple geometry of elbow angle and chair height: "I always knew from the beginning was that I was never typing enough for it to be purely a result of just typing, so this causal relationship between typing and repetitive strain injury is not what I had. Someone who is on the computer 10 hours a day, just banging away, is one thing, but that wasn t me. Mine came, yes, from doing layout at the Crimson, but primarily from...
