One of the sweetest sounds to students is when that last bell in the last class rings to signal school is out for summer. In the words of Alice Cooper, “Out for summer. Out till fall. We might not go back at all.” No one will return for classes to these schools; they are out permanently. The once busy halls and classrooms are lifeless and lonely. Not all schools are filled with laughter; some have a very dark past. These abandoned and decaying schools are out forever.

I’d never heard of musician Jeff Mills before today. He describes himself as “techno/classical/experimental,” and that’s a perfect description of what he’s pulled off with his new release titled “The Occurrence.”
With this album, Mills has become the first-known person to meld the analog and the digital world — musically speaking, anyway — into a single product. One side of the album’s five-inch disc is a standard compact disc that plays in any CD player. Flip it over, though, and it’s a vinyl record that you can play on your turntable.
You Go Girl!
Sure, her daytime talk show made you want to OD on Vick’s Vapo Rub, and she said and did some of the stupidest and most embarrassing things imaginable, but Tyra Banks has still always been pretty damn hot (as this new photoshoot proves). Look for her on CELEBRITY APPRENTICE, 2012 edition!
