DETROIT - At the halfway point, it’s tough to tell if the A’s are over-performing or if, given their rotations’ worth of pitching injuries, they might be an even better team than they’ve shown? Though Oakland’s major-league record streak of road games with homers ended at 27, the A’s are a season-high five games over .500 after defeating the Tigers 3-0 on Wednesday night. Before the season began, a .500 record seemed a reasonable goal for a young team, especially after three consecutive last-place finishes. Читать дальше...

Cameron Mesirow, better known by her stage name, Glasser, is incredibly talented at building layered soundscapes. In her music, generally filed under synthpop or dream pop, her voice drifts above tapestries of samples, drum machines and synthesizers. It’s a sound that, over the course of nearly a decade, has earned her a firm spot in the hearts of indie-music lovers. Then her musical output came to a stop in late 2013, and for a while it looked as though Mesirow was going to leave Glasser behind. Читать дальше...
