Every year they're won by the same predictable chart-toppers (indies need not apply)
Yeah, the timing of this move is extra suspicious, last year many indie artists were represented and nominated, including the huge surprise of Esperanza Spalding beating Justin Beiber for Best New Artist! (even if you hate him, everybody's heard of him, how many people have heard of her? not many is my guess).
Even if the Grammy's are diluted, they can help launch careers, just by exposing people to artists they might not be exposed to otherwise, another case in point, Nora Jones, a few years ago.
Whether or not you like these artists, I think it's clear that they represent 'musicians' and not just 'entertainers' and to me, more exemplify what a music award should be about.
This comment makes a good point.
not sure, I usually only skim, so I saw something about 'Forest Bathing,...',
what's more disturbing to me is who I thought wrote it, I thought it was odd that a texas oil man would care about such a thing.

Hmm, right-click save an image? really, people do this?
Stolen images update: Tom from Netwalk apologized, said he didnâ(TM)t know it was my texture, promised a resubmitted MyMovies update tonight!
At a past company our web designers used to get their stock images randomly off the web,
you know, the 'professional looking girl wearing the headset', for our web chat, etc.,
they used these images on our corporate site.
Management was contacted once about it once I believe, they of course had no idea it went on and were pissed.
But really, I've never heard of a web designer getting a budget to purchase high grade professional images.
Wow, thanks, I guess I'm out of touch, I didn't even know this was an issue.
Well, now that I know that it's been implied that people are returning linux netbooks, there must
be something wrong with linux on netbooks and probably linux in general and since folks are not returning many windows netbooks, then windows 7 must be superior, so I'd better get a new windows 7 netbook right away.
And as eye-popping as the number was, a rival automaker, said last week that its all-electric vehicle, the Leaf, which is scheduled to come out in late 2010, would get 367 m.p.g., using the same E.P.A. standards.
unfortunately by 2011 if appears that will under perform the market

Let's see. On another recent article it was stated that the average car has several million lines of code running in it.
Keep in mind the Prius code is written in Java, Kurzweil is referring to a million lines of Perl code

art? not so sure. Although, I think they could market this to FOX as a new reality TV show.

But it will do less than nothing to satisfy the teen-age boy in us that wants to see mechs blow shit up.
speaking of which, one of the previews included "Zombie Land", which looks horrible but should cover that last criteria
So, we are all composed of materials that come from our universe and we have now found materials in the universe that show we could be formed.

Thanks Microsoft, that was a close one
