Banned in DC: Bad Brains' Greatest Riffs distills the greatest hardcore punk band of all-time's career highlights down to a 23-track anthology. Prior to its 2003 release, several Bad Brains retrospectives and archival releases had been made available, but a proper entry route -- unless you consider one of the band's two greatest achievements, 1982's Bad Brains or 1986's I Against I -- was still necessary. This disc, smartly selected by band manager Anthony Countey, fills that void. It begins with the group's debut single, "Pay to Cum," and works through 1989's Quickness, their last truly significant album. For those who have been along for the whole ride, there's the previously unreleased "Riot Squad." However, this disc is valuable to the diehards as well, since a number of the inclusions are on CD for the first time. Plenty of fanatics made mix tapes as introductions for friends that resemble this disc. In that sense, this official release has been a long time coming. ~ Andy Kellman, allmusic.com

"I think, therefore I am." The legendary pronouncement of philosopher René Descartes lingers as accepted wisdom in the Western world nearly four centuries after its author´s death. But does thought really come first? Who actually runs the show: we, our thoughts, or the neurons firing within our brains? Walter J.

One of the major issues dividing the critics was whether Carr's claim that the Internet has shortchanged our brain power is, essentially, correct. Many bought into his argument about the neurological effects of the Internet, but the more expert among them (Jonah Lehrer, for one) cited scientific evidence that such technologies actually benefit the mind. Still, as Lehrer, in the New York Times Book Review, points out, Carr is no Luddite, and he fully recognizes the usefulness of the Internet. Other criticism was more trivial, such as the value of Carr's historical and cultural digressions--from Plato to HAL. In the end, Carr offers a thought-provoking investigation into our relationship with technology--even if he offers no easy answers.

In this highly-entertaining DVD, national marriage expert Mark Gungor explores the differences between men and women or what he calls, “The Laws of Relational Physics”. Specifically, how men and women are wired differently. They act differently, they communicate differently and most importantly, they think differently. Mark shows couples that their problems may result from how men and women THINK about life in a different way. He explains that many of the struggles couples face in marriage are the result of a HEAD problem, not a HEART problem.
