How was the first straight line made?
The first straight line was not made by a rular because it had to come from nature. So where did it come from?
The better question was how and when a stright line was understood to be straightline.

Self-Made $9.58 Before dropping Self-Made, Rocko spent years in the background, writing and producing hits for others while developing the careers of Sammy Sam and Young Dro. After shopping around the demo of his solo single "Umma Do Me," he was snapped up by Def Jam in a swift -- maybe a little shortsighted -- manner. "Umma" is a hook-filled monster with just the right amount of cocky attitude bumping against a royal Drumma Boy production. It sounds great at a party, a club, on the radio, or any other place where it's the chorus that matters. That Rocko's style is an unoriginal mix of Young Jeezy, T.I., and Shawty Lo didn't matter much as the four-minute jam climbed the charts, but when he creates anything less than "Umma," it's detrimental. Past the hit, Self-Made's first half is plagued by empty, everyday party numbers, the most shameless of them all being "Old Skool," where "Umma"'s mediocre line "My ol' school cost more than your new school" is blown up into a full song. Fortunately, things pick up once the convincing club track "Like This Here" hits. The story-song "Snakes" is interesting as a Dirty South alternative to R. Kelly's "Trapped in the Closet," while the hood fantasy "Thugs Need Love Too" features some steamy Monica and Rocko interaction, which shouldn't be too surprising since they're a married couple in real life. As evidenced by the guest appearances of Monica, and even Lloyd, Self-Made would be much better if it gave some more of Rocko's high-profile friends an opportunity to put some flavor on the tracks. Instead, it stubbornly tries to present him as an all-around artist and limits its appeal to forgiving Dirty South fans who don't mind fishing for highlights. ~ David Jeffries, Rovi Performers: Blaze - Vocals; K.C. - Vocals |

Made in Dagenham $13.59 Made in Dagenham is a film about a strike at a Ford Motor plant in the London suburb of the title in 1968 by women workers seeking to achieve equal pay with men. The setting and plot allow for a soundtrack full of pop/rock songs of around that period, some of them touching on the theme and/or sung by women, most of those, naturally, Britons like Sandie Shaw, Dusty Springfield, and Lulu. Jamaican Desmond Dekker's renditions of his hit "Israelites" and of Jimmy Cliff's "You Can Get It If You Really Want" both are in the spirit of the movie's message, as are the songs of some Americans, notably the Temptations ("Get Ready"), James Brown ("It's a Man's, Man's, Man's World," with its tag line, "but it wouldn't mean nothin' without a woman or a girl"), and Mama Cass ("It's Getting Better"). Sometimes, the songs are just good oldies, like Sam the Sham & the Pharaohs' "Wooly Bully" or Traffic's "Paper Sun." The album cover proclaims this to be "music from and inspired by" the film, but the only song that could have been inspired by it is the title tune, newly written by David Arnold and Billy Bragg, and sung by Shaw, in the style of the other tracks on the album. ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi |

Made in Germany $18.39 Having lost its second major-label recording contract following the release of its ninth studio album, Future Games: A Magical-Kahauna Dream, in 1977, Spirit toured Europe in the winter of 1978, resulting in the release of the group's first live album, which appeared in three different configurations in three different territories. The basic source of the album was the band's March 11, 1978, show at the Rainbow in London. The British version, on Illegal Records, was called Live Spirit, which was also the title of the U.S. album on Spirit's own Potato Records label, but the West German release was called Made in Germany. All three versions include performances of five vintage Spirit songs, "Animal Zoo," "1984," "Nature's Way," "It's All the Same," and "I Got a Line on You," as well as the previously unreleased songs "Looking Down From a Mountain" and "Hollywood Dream." To these, the British album adds "Downer" and a cover of the Troggs' (by way of Jimi Hendrix) "Wild Thing." Neither of those tracks appear on the U.S. LP, which substitutes two other new Spirit songs, "Rock 'N' Roll Planet" and "These Are Words," recorded in Florida. The German version is identical to the U.S. one in its contents (albeit with a different song sequence) except that it adds one more track, recorded in Germany, "Rockpalast Jam," referring the German TV show Rockpalast, on which the group appeared. Thus, Made in Germany is a composite of performances from several different locations, and it also sounds like a fair amount of editing and overdubbing was done in the studio. The new songs, particularly "Rockpalast Jam" and "Rock 'N' Roll Planet," are slight as compositions, though they provide a structure for guitarist/songwriter Randy California's inventive improvisations. The familiar material is well-performed by the trio of California, bassist Larry "Fuzzy" Knight, and Ed Cassidy, with "It's All the Same" stretched out to ten minutes to allow room for a drum solo before segueing into the band's biggest hit and natural show closer, "I Got a Line on You." "This CD, we are bold enough to consider one of the best live LP's in rock-history," the liner notes say, and if that seems a considerable exaggeration, nevertheless this is an album that should be enjoyed by Spirit's fan base. ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi Performers: Ed Cassidy - Percussion, Drums; Larry Knight - Bass; Randy California - Bass, Guitar, Vocals |

Line in the Sand $29.95 Line in the Sand details the dramatic transformation of the western U.S.-Mexico border from its creation at the end of the Mexican-American War in 1848 to the emergence of the modern boundary line in the first decades of the twentieth century. In this sweeping narrative, Rachel St. John explores how this boundary changed from a mere line on a map to a clearly marked and heavily regulated divide between the United States and Mexico. Focusing on the desert border to the west of the Rio Grande, this book explains the origins of the modern border and places the line at the center of a transnational history of expanding capitalism and state power in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Moving across local, regional, and national scales, St. John shows how government officials, Native American raiders, ranchers, railroad builders, miners, investors, immigrants, and smugglers contributed to the rise of state power on the border and developed strategies to navigate the increasingly regulated landscape. Over the border's history, the U.S. and Mexican states gradually developed an expanding array of official laws, ad hoc arrangements, government agents, and physical barriers that did not close the line, but made it a flexible barrier that restricted the movement of some people, goods, and animals without impeding others. By the 1930s, their efforts had created the foundations of the modern border control apparatus. Drawing on extensive research in U.S. and Mexican archives, Line in the Sand weaves together a transnational history of how an undistinguished strip of land became the significant and symbolic space of state power and national definition that we know today. |

Out of Line $8.48 Jenny is a cop who has made many motorists walk in a straight line to test their sobriety, but the line she herself is now gently tiptoeing requires strength that can't be taught at the police academy. Deftly played by Jennifer Beals, Jenny's fragile heart is suddenly vibrant and full of life when an ex-con seduces her and the two fall passionately in love. The relationship, already undergoing a difficult moral test, becomes more complicated when her lover uses his new found freedom to seek to settle the score that put him away for so long. Togetherness becomes the couple's only sanctuary as they flee from both sides of the law. Jenny, torn between the white flames of her desire and the blue uniform that she proudly wears when not in bed with her ex-con lover, finds that her bulletproof vest will not shield her heart. |

Life, on the Line: $17.32 Author-autographed book plates available! While supplies last. For photos, bios, and to read an excerpt from the Preface, click here. To see 1 day at Alinea in 3 minutes click here for the video. In 2007, chef Grant Achatz seemingly had it made. He had been named one of the best new chefs in America by Food & Wine in 2002, received the James Beard Foundation Rising Star Chef of the Year Award in 2003, and in 2005 he and Nick Kokonas opened the conceptually radical restaurant Alinea, which was named Best Restaurant in America by Gourmet magazine. Then, positioned firmly in the world's culinary spotlight, Achatz was diagnosed with stage IV squamous cell carcinoma--tongue cancer. The prognosis was grim, and doctors agreed the only course of action was to remove the cancerous tissue, which included his entire tongue. Desperate to preserve his quality of life, Grant undertook an alternative treatment of aggressive chemotherapy and radiation. But the choice came at a cost. Skin peeled from the inside of Grant's mouth and throat, he rapidly lost weight, and most alarmingly, he lost his sense of taste. Tapping into the discipline, passion, and focus of being a chef, Grant rarely missed a day of work. He trained his chefs to mimic his palate and learned how to cook with his other senses. As Kokonas was able to attest: The food was never better. Five months later, Grant was declared cancer-free, and just a few months following, he received the James Beard Foundation Outstanding Chef in America Award. Life, on the Line tells the story of a culinary trailblazer's love affair with cooking, but it is also a book about survival, about nurturing creativity, and about profound friendship. Already much-anticipated by followers of progressive cuisine, Grant and Nick's gripping narrative is filled with stories from the world's most renowned kitchens--The French Laundry, Charlie Trotter's, el Bulli--and sure to expand the audience that made Alinea the number-one selling restaurant cookbook in America last year. |

The Punch Line $8.78 The Minutemen may have come out of the same California hardcore scene that produced Black Flag, Circle Jerks, and Fear, but they not only bore little resemblance to their West Coast contemporaries, they didn't sound much like anyone else in American rock at that time. The Punch Line was the band's first album, packing 18 tunes into less than 25 minutes, and if the music shares hardcore's lust for speed and assaultive rhythmic punch, their sharp, fragmented melodies, complex tempos, and overtly poetic and political lyrics made clear they were rugged individuals; imagine James Blood Ulmer teaching Wire how to get funky and you start to get an idea of what The Punch Line sounds like. It wasn't until the band began to slow down a bit on What Makes a Man Start Fires? that the strength of the group's individual songs became clear, and The Punch Line works better as a unified sonic assault than as a collection of tunes, but moments do stand out, especially "Tension," "Fanatics," and the title cut, which certainly lends a new perspective to Native American history. The Punch Line was as wildly inventive as anything spawned by American punk, and the band would only get better on subsequent releases. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi Performers: D. Boon - Vocals, Guitar; George Hurley - Voices, Drums; Mike Watt - Bass, Vocals |

The Freedom Line $13.85 The Freedom Line unfolds a surprising history of World War II, telling the gripping story of the men and women who risked their lives to save Allied airmen trapped behind enemy lines.When twenty-year-old American pilot Robert Grimes was brutally shot down over Belgium on October 20, 1943, he was stranded and instantly became the target of Gestapo manhunts. Wounded and lost, he was rescued by operatives of the Comet Line, a resistance group made up of young men and women from Nazi-occupied territory who formed an underground network that recovered Allied aircrews and guided them to safety. Their road to freedom was a perilous journey by train, bicycle, and foot that stretched hundreds of miles across occupied France to the Pyrenees Mountains at the Spanish border.Experience an engrossing story of survival and resistance, as veteran journalist Peter Eisner vividly tells this remarkable history through the eyes of the participants -- the former airmen as well as their rescuers. |

A Fine Line $33.2 A Fine Line celebrates in an accessible popular history the accomplishments of contemporary fine craftspeople. Using Ontario as a base, the book examines how the public eagerly embraced the work of craft designers and makers, starting with the first major craft exhibit in Toronto in 1931 at Ridpaths, and following the story from those beginnings to the present.There has never been a comprehensive book on contemporary studio crafts in any Canadian province; one is long overdue. A Fine Line places potters, weavers, textile printers, bookbinders, metalsmiths, blown glass artists, stained glass artists, furniture makers, and many more into the larger context of the crafts movement in Ontario in the second half of this century. The book features six decades of outstanding work by Ontario`s designer-craftspeople in colour and in black-and-white photographs. The book also highlights the individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to the developing craft and design scene. |
