Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt are suing tabloid over breakup story

Game on! Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are taking legal action against the British tabloid News of the World for its story last month that alleged the couple were working out details of a split.

"The News of the World has failed to meet our clients' reasonable demands for a retraction of and apology for these false and intrusive allegations which have now been widely republished by mainstream news outlets," a lawyer working for the couple in London said in a statement. "We have advised them to b… Continue

Powerful snowstorm hits U.S. East Coast

A powerful storm slammed the U.S. mid-Atlantic on Friday, threatening record snowfall in a region heavily dependent on home heating oil and natural gas supplies.

Forecasts calling for 20 to 30 inches (50 to 76 cm) of snow and near-blizzard conditions from Virginia to southern New Jersey prompted U.S. government offices in the Washington area to close their doors four hours early.

President Barack Obama, who previously has made fun of the reaction in Washington to small amounts of snow, was not… Continue

6.0 quake rattles North Coast

A magnitude 6.0 earthquake shook the North Coast today in the area where a stronger temblor hit last month, but so far there are no reports of injuries or damage.

The quake hit at 12:20 p.m. and was centered about 30 miles offshore, northwest of the small town of Petrolia in Humboldt County, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

Residents said they could feel the shaker, but it was nowhere near as disconcerting as the magnitude 6.5 quake that struck the region Jan. 9.

That quake was center… Continue

'Lost' recap: What's Your Worldview?

Two, two, two shows in one! The two-hour season premiere of Lost, with its dual tracks of parallel world yarns, was a twin-patty, double-pounder factory burger of story, slathered with saucy ideas, drippy with messy emotions, and chewy with mystery meat. It was a delicious meal for this ravenous eight months-starved Lost fan, and while it wasn't easy to digest (check that: I'm still digesting it), I felt properly served. Where to start? Should I sketch how the premiere was an elaborate metaphori… Continue

September Art and Dance Seminars and Speaking Programs

I'm speaking at two programs in September: First up, I'm conducting two Internet workshops at the NYS Arts Summit 2009 in Schenectady, New York from September 22nd-23rd. The first workshop is a nuts-and-bolts introduction to Facebook and Twitter. And the second workshop will offer a strategic overview of Facebook and Twitter with examples of how arts organizations are using these tools. Both sessions are hands-on and participants are encouraged to bring their computers and connect via Wi-Fi. Then, on September 29th, I'll be on a Movement Research Panel: "Towards an Adjudication Model for Dance Criticism," here in Manhattan. If you can make it to one or both of the programs, please let me know.

KidsMakeDance
Our first pilot project is next week. "KidsMakeHipHop" with Carlos Cordova from Souljerz Crew will take place in Flushing from July 27 - 31, 2009. Kathleen, Carlos and I will be working with kids from Kathleen's PS 165 Dance Company and we and the students will be documenting (video, pictures and text) the creative process online during and following the program.
