No easy task deciding which of the many Lee Morgan albums to choose, there’s a whole month’s worth of Blue Note titles to pick from. Having taken lessons as a child from the legendary Clifford Brown, and then playing his first gig in Dizzy Gillespie’s big band at age eighteen, Morgan’s career took off in the same manner his trumpet did – like a house on fire. Hearing him in any setting, one would naturally assume that: this here must be the top dog.

Any (post) apocalyptic film released a week after the excellent The Road is in for a rough ride. The Book of Eli is a more graphic, less horrifying vision of a potential future. With a comic book cool a world away from the dirt of The Road, the film is a Mad Max rip-off that while stylish and enjoyable offers little new to the genre.

You can be a lot more creative with unusual girls' names than you can with boys' names. Well, girls can be pretty cruel, too. So, just in case your little girl's friends decide to invent an unintended nickname from her fabulous name, my advice is to give your baby a boring, normal name, along with a hip, cool name.
