Apropos of nada relating at all to the Lakers, but nonetheless pretty awesome: a video clip of the Miami Heat roster from the team's official website. It's a seriously slick presentation, combining Blue Note-style visuals, James Brown and the NBA. That's a solid "you had me at hello" formula for the elder Kamenetzky, and if I had to go out on a limb, the younger as well. Even Chris Quinn...

When Chris Quinn isn’t driving Vito Corleone to the local fruit stand for oranges, he’s a guard for the Miami Heat; and takes his team photo responsibilities very seriously. Fun fact: He attended Dublin Coffman High School in Dublin, Ohio; in the same class as Brady Quinn, although the two aren’t related (they also both [...]

I've been watching the Monty Python-a-Thon every night this week on IFC (except for Tuesday when I taped it because of Trivia Night), and have really been enjoying it, especially, "Monty Python: Almost The Truth," the six-part documentary series that is also a part of it. The five living members of the group have been extensively interviewed for it and it's been really fascinating getting...

At his Q&A with reporters, Mayor Bloomberg was asked about the Times story that his administration apparently violated city procurement...

New York City Council speaker Christine Quinn is dismayed about the legislative gridlock in Albany, noting that it has prevented the State Senate from imposing her and Bloomberg's nearly billion-dollar tax hike "revenue package" on New York City residents. It's well known that New York is a dangerously undertaxed city, but I'm not sure Quinn's insistence that this is "close to life or...
