Sean BakerSean Baker’s latest movie, Prince of Broadway has been hitting up all the film festivals. It was just at Locarno this summer and more recently at Woodstock where it was well-received. Sean shares his thoughts on his last film, “Take Out”, a story based around a Chinese Delivery man, how he came to NYC “right at the end.”, why L.A.ers all look the same, and his 3am karaoke nights in Flushing.
We decided to ask a diverse group of young movers and shakers across the city where they like to hang out. Places that are under the radar, "best kept secrets" if you will. See what they have to say

A federal court yesterday ruled that our money is discriminatory against blind people. Complaining that they had no way of determining the dollar amount currency by touch alone, The American Council for the Blind took Uncle Sam (and Washington and Franklin) to court. Some of the tricks blind folks use to tell a five from a fifty: dog earring the corners of certain bills, using credit cards instead, and generally just placing their financial fate in the hands of well-meaning cashiers.
As you can imagine, this grew old very quickly and the court ruled in their favor on Tuesday. There seems to be no downside to instituting a braille feature on bills and it”s not yet known what the U.S. Mint will do.
While I approve of yet another way to make money even more counterfeit proof than ever, I’m beginning to question when it’s going to cost more than a buck to make a buck.

Ugh. This is bad news. Pretty soon the only people left to make fun of will be midgets.

in the uk, bills are different sizes and colours, makes great sense when you are in a hurry to find a bill, and you aren’t blind.
of course, they all have the queen on them, but, hey, george would love to have his picture on bills…so *shrug*
(laughing over the spam word being borrow…you set these up, don’t you?)
