Movie Reviews

The English Surgeon

A good documentary does more to stimulate my mind than the best fictional films. The English Surgeon is above and beyond a spectacular documentary. Most scriptwriters couldn't dare compete with the sheer drama and uncomfortable tension filmmaker Geoffrey Smith captures in his real-life story of English neurosurgeon Henry Marsh, who became fed up with the inability of Ukrainian doctors to treat patients in need of brain operations and decided to do something about it. When a young Ukrainian man needs an operation to remove a tumor in his brain, Doctor Smith is his only hope for long-term survival. Unfortunately for this patient, modern luxuries are nowhere to be found in modern-day Ukraine and the only the way the operation can move forward is by using nothing but local anesthetics to reduce the pain of drilling thru the scull and scraping away the cancerous cells growing on his brain--In other words, doing the entire operation while completely awake and conscious. Beyond the unbelievable situations throughout the film, the simple message of humanitarianism shines.  In today's consumerist smorgasbord of a world we live in, it can be easy to forget the simple things that make being a fellow human being a rewarding experience. This film helps remind us. -Clayton Hauck

Podcasting

Brain Stuff.
(itunes link, web link)

HowStuffWorks.com offers a nice variety of interesting podcasts but the first one I stumbled upon was Brain Stuff. It's a short but sweet look into, well, how stuff works. Each podcast gives a straight and to-the-point explaination on a wide variety of topics of which you are sure to find a few that interest you.

Issue #49: Welcome to the new everyoneisfamous.com newsletter. It's been a while since I've sent one of these out and that's because I've been slowly re-working the everyoneisfamous.com website and redefining what it is we do. If you have not been there in a while, check it out!

There will still be a heavy focus on nightlife here in Chicago and across the country, but we are mixing things up and attempting to be more well-rounded. This newsletter, along with the main website, will cover music, photography, design, guest blogs or whatever we find interesting along with the normal servings of party photos, ticket giveaways and all the stuff we've been doing for years.

Also, TONIGHT is Tuesdays Are Famous at Beauty Bar Chicago (1444 W Chicago Ave.). As always, there is no cover and affordable drinks. I will be spinning along with Black Holes. Hope to see you there!

Nutcracker And The American People. by Jack Unitus.
On account of last night's passage of h.r. 3200, or "Obama-care", or whatever you care to call it, TV viewers like myself got to experience local news crews hitting the streets in search of the opinions of the everyman.

Endless USB by Clayton. in Design.
I like this.

Washington: Dismantling Dissapointment in the NBA. by Dylan.
When you drive by a wreck on the highway, the real reason traffic slows is the sick often subconscious hunger man carries to steal a glimpse of death.

If you've never been to Rehab but have been curious about what goes on inside those walls every Monday night, you are in luck! The parties' founders and this year Lollapalooza performers recently debuted their first mixtape of their own and I must say, this is pretty much what you will hear any given Monday. Check it out below or in person at Debonair Social Club each and every Monday night.
