Timbaland, Timbaland presents Shock Value, Interscope There’s been massive hype surrounding the release of Timbaland presents… Shock Value, and understandably so.

John Malkovich is Stanley Kubrick

John Malkovich is Alan Conway, an impersonator of Stanley Kubrick, who is as powerful and creepy as they come: flamboyant, with faint lipstick, colorful neck scarves, and an array of accents tailored to his con victims.

Etiquette lessons: the road to the final fork

Our soup spoons were poised delicately in the air. The smell of the tomato bisque wafted to our noses as we restrained ourselves from slurping away. Surely we could manage this with grace; we certainly looked like confident young professionals.

Southeast Safeway misrepresented

As a former Voice writer and current Southeast D.C. resident, my concern was with the portrayal of the Southeast Safeway, where I happen to shop. The experience reflected in the article is very different from my own and I get the feeling that your reporter got a distorted view of the store and the neighborhood during his or her brief stop.
