[music] Orianthi - According to You

"Who doesn’t want to be recognized and even loved for who they truly are? That’s the lyrical theme for Orianthi’s snappy pop-rock gem According to You. The message also applies to the instrumental skills of the mid-twentyish native of southern Australia and onetime guitar wunderkind. She’s not just an energetic singer; she’s a six-string slayer. She’s earned the praises of none other than Carlos Santana and was Michael Jackson’s last live guitarist; you can see her in the late King of Pop’s rehearsal-footage feature film, This Is It." -- iTunes Store

[music] Matias Aguayo - Rollerskate

"Former Closer Musik maestro Matias Aguayo is responsible for this whimsical, jumpy, electronic-driven creation. Rollerskate is an elusive, slippery groove of a track where the vocals and rhythms begin to slur and morph into one another, creating a kind of disorienting haze. While the breeziness reflects the feel of such (unfortunately) bygone pastimes as rollerskating, Aguayo's methods of achieving such a feeling are purely from the future." -- iTunes Store

[audiobook] Steven D. Levitt, Stephen J. Dubner - SuperFreakonomics (Excerpt)

"Download this chapter from the unabridged audiobook recording of SuperFreakonomics by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner. This chapter, entitled "Unbelievable Stories About Apathy and Altruism" is read by author Stephen J. Dubner. The New York Times best-selling Freakonomics was a worldwide sensation, selling more than four million copies in 35 languages and changing the way we look at the world. Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner return with Superfreakonomics, and fans and newcomers alike will find that the freakquel is even bolder, funnier, and more surprising than the first. SuperFreakonomics challenges the way we think all over again, exploring the hidden side of everything with such questions as: How is a street prostitute like a department-store Santa? What do hurricanes, heart attacks, and highway deaths have in common? Can eating kangaroo save the planet? Levitt and Dubner mix smart thinking and great storytelling like no one else. By examining how people respond to incentives, they show the world for what it really is: good, bad, ugly, and, in the final analysis, super freaky. Freakonomics has been imitated many times over - but only now, with SuperFreakonomics, has it met its match." -- iTunes Store

"Diddy. Puffy. Mr. Combs. No matter what you call him, he's nothing without his team of assistants. That's why Sean Combs has teamed up with VH1 to develop a new reality competition show to unearth his next right-hand person.

It's not easy working for the baddest boy at Bad Boy Entertainment. In fact, it can be downright brutal. That's why over the course of the season, Diddy will put the WannaDiddies through his own special boot camp full of hard-core challenges that will test their physical, mental, and emotional limits.

Sure, everybody wants to work for Diddy, but what does it really take? What happens when you don't answer an email at 4 a.m.? What happens if onions have been near one of his meals? What happens if someone says that he didn’t actually invent the remix? It's a tale of psychological torture and heartbreak. Comedy and tragedy. No sleeping. No food. No sex.

"Melanie Fiona is a Toronto-bred R&B singer and Kanye West protégé. If her debut single, “Give It to Me Right” (with a sample from the Zombies’ “Time of the Season”), was a stinging jab, It Kills Me is the devastating left hook. Fiona flutters across the "he done me wrong" ballad with a startling range of sensitivity and strength. "It Kills Me" takes it to the street, à la Erykah Badu's "Tyrone" or Sunshine Anderson's "Heard It All Before," on this sweet and salty taste from Fiona’s debut album, The Bridge." -- iTunes Store

His Run begins simply enough, with his empathetic voice and a single strummed guitar. The song soon benefits from fuller orchestration and a heroic chorus. The bridge then elevates this micro-anthem even higher, climaxing with Paul’s now glorious-sounding voice enveloped in a choir of guitars." -- iTunes Store

Greer (JAMIL WALKER SMITH) try to make sense of the situation, while Lt. Tamara Johansen (ALAINA HUFFMAN), a medic who was days away from leaving the program, is thrust into the role of chief medical officer. After secretly contacting the Home World Command using communications stones - a device which allows the swapping of consciousness between bodies across vast distances - Dr. Rush claims that he has been placed in charge by General O'Neill (RICHARD DEAN ANDERSON) and there is no hope of returning to Earth. When the ship's air supply systems begin to fail, his theories are challenged by Eli. As the crisis deepens, divisions emerge between those who want to attempt a return to Earth, including human resources executive Camille Wray (MING-NA), and those who want to remain aboard the Destiny.

[audiobook] Craig Ferguson - America on Purpose (Excerpt)

"In American on Purpose, Craig Ferguson delivers a moving and achingly funny memoir of living the American dream as he journeys from the mean streets of Glasgow, Scotland, to the comedic promised land of Hollywood. Along the way he stumbles through several attempts to make his mark - as a punk rock musician, a construction worker, a bouncer, and, tragically, a modern dancer.To numb the pain of failure, Ferguson found comfort in drugs and alcohol, addictions that eventually led to an aborted suicide attempt. (He forgot to do it when someone offered him a glass of sherry.) But his story has a happy ending: in 1993, the washed-up Ferguson washed up in the United States. Finally sober, Ferguson landed a breakthrough part on the hit sitcom The Drew Carey Show, a success that eventually led to his role as the host of CBS's The Late Late Show.By far Ferguson's greatest triumph was his decision to become a U.S. citizen, a milestone he achieved in early 2008, just before his command performance for the president at the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner.In American on Purpose, Craig Ferguson talks a red, white, and blue streak about everything our Founding Fathers feared." -- iTunes Store

[video] The National Parks: America's Best Idea - Behind the Scenes

"The national parks spring from an idea as uniquely American as the Declaration of Independence and just as radical: that the most precious portions of the land should be preserved, not for royalty or the rich, but for everyone, for all time. Here are the stories of those magnificent places and the unforgettable people who kept them from destruction - stories of struggle and conflict, stirring adventure and enduring inspiration, set against a backdrop of stunning beauty and grandeur.

The National Parks: America's Best idea, a six-part documentary series from acclaimed filmmakers Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan, is a breathtaking journey through the nation's most spectacular landscapes and a celebration of the people - famous and unknown - who fought to save them for future generations to treasure." -- iTunes Store
