Pieces of You

$2.05

Jewel’s debut album, Pieces of You, reveals a special voice–strong and focused on both the whispery verses and the hooky choruses. The recording also exposes an unfortunate tendency to present trite, hackneyed sentiments as if they were oracular visions from a young prophet to a jaded world. For the most part, Jewel sings to her own acoustic guitar accompaniment, but she has a lot more in common …

The Capitol Years

$21.84

Including Sinatra’s finest recordings from the most consistently accomplished era of his career, The Capitol Years includes three discs and 75 songs worth of swinging standards and bittersweet saloon pop, the music Sinatra made after his career and personal life had crashed and singing was all he had left. His masterful baritone and remarkable phrasing here work in perfect combination with arrange…

The Shepherd’s Dog

$8.33

Following a one-record hiatus to collaborate with Tucson collective Calexico on 2005′s In The Reins, Iron & Wine (Sam Beam, that is) recoils to the earnestness and intimacy that embodied his first two records, his cerebral words and phrases tunneled beneath an orchestra of guitar, banjo, keyboards, and strings.

The cast is fine, but as for the film, what you see is what you get. There’s no mystery to any part of this movie–like everything director Jean Negulesco made once CinemaScope entered his life (e.g., How to Marry a Millionaire, A Certai…

In January of 1999, the world’s greatest basketball player announced his retirement from professional basketball, citing the lack of challenges for him from the game. No wonder. During his roughly 12-year career, Michael Jordan won six NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls, captured the MVP award several times, broke various records, and invented a kind of graceful, deeply competitive athletici…

Roxanne [VHS]

$0.88

In 1987, almost a hundred years after its first production, the romantic story of Cyrano de Bergerac found new life in a winsome film written by Steve Martin. Roxanne updates the tale with a smart ’80s spin, yet writer-star Martin stays close to the old-fashioned heart of the matter. He plays a small-town firefighter named C.D. Bales, whose otherwise unremarkable existence is crowned by an amazing…

What is the composition of the metallic gold one dollar coins of the United States?

A friend returned from Greece today and gave me some coins that I tested to be magnetic. Canadian "Looneys" (a one-dollar coin) are magnetic well appear as our gold one dollar coins recently minted. But one dollar coins from the United States are not attracted by a magnet.
