Cale and a number of performers—including John Cage—all took turns playing the piece that’s just 3 lines long, but needs repeating 840 times. Cage, it seems, also organized the event, having been introduced to Vexations in Paris in ‘49.
The man sitting beside Cale is off-Broadway actor, Karl Schenzer. His secret? He was the only audience member ballsy enough to stick out the entire concert. Schenzer went on, possibly, and according to the New Yorker’s Alex Ross, to become a bit player for Francis Ford Coppola.
Question: in the above photo, is it the wife or the husband sleeping in the blanket? Either way, it’s made by a science teacher from activated carbon—how could such a miracle device not save a marriage?! As The Better Marriage Blanket site stresses, “This is a real product, not a joke!”

Every Couple Should Have One!
A Fun Solution to a Common Problem!
Almost everyone knows the silent but deadly effects of flatulence on relationships. For couples, nothing can spoil the romantic aura more quickly! It can be funny but it can also be a nuisance. The Better Marriage Blanket is made using the same kind of activated carbon fabric found in Military Chemical Suits.
As a science teacher, I had used activated carbon in my laboratory lessons and was aware that chemicals and gasses are absorbed in millions of microscopic pores in each tiny particle of activated carbon. This principal is what makes The Blanket so effective! Activated Carbon is well known in Science and Industry for its odor absorbing properties. It is safe and non-allergenic.
This beautifully made, soft, warm, medium weight, 300 thread count comforter will work for many years. It can be machine washed normally and is dry cleanable. Simply drying in an electric dryer or in the sun will re-activate the odor absorbing qualities of the carbon.
And if there’s some married couples out there still on the fence, by all means check out the testimonials. And you Dangerous Minds readers in, well, unconventional relationships, call in for your group discount!
Take a ride through the Hollywood Hills with independent film God, John Cassavetes. At the time (‘65), the famously intense actor-writer-director (Shadows, Opening Night, A Woman Under The Influence) expresses nothing more than mild contempt for L.A.
In this second clip, though, and as Gena Rowlands and Ben Gazzara look on, bemused, he really goes off on it. And don’t get him started on television!
Lawrence Livermore Labs, aka “terrifying military-industrial complex facility hated by all Bay Area hippies,” has apparently just created a miniature star. They plan to use these to solve the energy crisis. Makes about as much sense as building a freaking Hardon Hadron Collider…
It may be an American project, but it has the potential to greatly affect not only the EU, but the entire planet. Researchers at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory believe they have come up with a way to permanently cure the planet’s energy woes - to create a star on Earth.
Now immediately, the entire plan sounds like ‘science-fiction gone mad’ and throws up some rather important questions - how can you create a star on Earth? Won’t having a sun so close essentially toast the planet? And how is this possibly a good idea? However the scientists at the government lab in California are entirely serious.
Using the world’s largest laser, which is the size of three football fields, the scientists propose to “set off a nuclear reaction so intense that it will make a star bloom on the surface of the Earth.”
If that didn’t sound terrifying enough, the group are hoping to go ahead with the plan late this summer with the aim of harnessing the energy generated by the mini-star to solve the global energy crisis.
While nuclear fusion has been pitched as a ‘miracle power source’ for almost half a century, scientists have yet to sufficiently harness it. To make things worse for the team, the US Government Accountability Office has stated in an audit that delays and mismanagement may delay the fusion reaction this year.

Kids these days. Too much respect for their elders.
Pearl Carter is positively glowing with joy. She has a handsome new boyfriend, is enjoying an active sex life after many years of celibacy and, amazingly, is preparing to become a mother again.
But the retired grandmother isn’t carrying the baby herself. She and her young lover have spent a staggering $54,000 hiring a surrogate to help them with their dreams of having a child.
What makes Pearl’s decision to become a mum again even more shocking is that her new boyfriend is her biological grandson, 26-year-old Phil Bailey.
