1.  Bastard Noise gets a shout out.  This gives all my high school crust punk fantasies some validation. 2.  The Imperial Bedrooms review is tiny.  So tiny that I am led to believe there is nothing good to gain from this book. 3. Peter Schjeldahl on the Charles Burchfield retrospective at The Whitney. 4.  Nora Ephron parodies Stieg Larsson.
