To be diagnosed with an illness can be bewildering and frightening, especially if there is no-one around to tell you the things you really want to know. ‘How is this illness going to change my life?’ ‘How will it affect my relationship with my family, friends and colleagues?’ ‘What will it be like having this operation or taking these drugs?’ ‘Will I still be able to do the things I used to do?’

Addicted to Noise (Music database)

The critics include Dave Marsh, Greil Marcus and others among the rock-crit literati (and now digerati). - Web100.com

Chronicle of the Future
The turn of the millennium inspired the UK's Sunday Times to speculate on the next 50 years of news headlines -- from a ridiculous prediction of Mick Jagger's death during the Rolling Stones' 13th farewell tour in 2030 to a sublimely optimistic forecast of a genetic cure for cancer by 2021. Scientists, historians, and other pundits predict technological advances, such as a language translation chip, and global business mergers. They even predict a new set of Ten Commandments in 2042.
