"
From March 3—June 17, 2005, the Whitney Museum of
American Art presents Sue de Beer: Black Sun.
Black
Sun, a new two-channel video installation viewed within a
large-scale wooden house environment, furthers de Beer’s exploration
of the construction of feminine desire and unfulfilled longing."
+ "
Sue de Beer’s
art is a mature reflection on the
complex
interior lives of disaffected suburban American teenagers. Her
video
installations,
photographs, and
sculptures are littered with references to the
pop culture detritus
central to our
adolescent search for identity." +
"
By using the computer and constructing sets to contain the
action, de Beer’s
enigmatic
images make any fiction appear as
reality."

« If only all the Helsinki city trams featured a bar, curtains,
a loo and inlaid wooden benches like Spårakoff. »
Every big city has some attraction that the locals eschew as a
tourist trap and, if I had to think of one for Helsinki,
Spårakoff would likely be it. Boston has the duck tours but
Spårakoff doesn't feature an annoyingly perky tour guide spewing
useless trivia about Helsinki that you won't remember as you whiz by
at 50mph while wishing that you had a beer. No, Spårakoff rolls
quietly around the city
in a loop [~160kb map] while you look out the window and enjoy a
beer or two along with the scenery. The tram only runs from May
through August which seems wrong since the times you'd want to ride on
a cozy tram drinking beer would likely be more during the cold and
dark months rather than the warm and sunny months, but unsurprisingly
tourists don't flock to Helsinki during the dark times. There's very
little mention of the tram on the net in English and so I suppose that
it's something the natives want to ride on but only do when they have
a visitor to take along as an excuse for being such a tourist. :)
I had always wanted to take a ride on it since first seeing the red tram, but it's not
really something you make time for when you live here, ride the
regular trams, have seen the sights and don't feel like parting with
7€ for admission and 5€ for a beer just for a 40-60 minute
ride around town. A short ferry ride to Tallinn, a few cases of Koff,
and back costs only a few euros more. It's a beautiful old tram
appointed with a bar, polished wood seats, carpet and velvet curtains
which gives the air of being both modern and vintage at the same time.
The tables even have built-in cup holders to keep spillage down to a
minimum. The tram was originally built in 1959 for Helsinki City
Transport, who still operate the tram, and it has been a pub tram
serving Koff beer and cider
since 1995. The brochure mentions that it has a capacity for 24 people
sitting, 6 people standing and, 1 seat in the WC. :) Koff still
delivers kegs of beer to local pubs via a wagon pulled by draft horses
driven by 2 gentlemen, too, so I think they have a penchant for
nostalgia.

More news from
the Tirols—the Beer Pool! In a story entitled "Das erste
Bier-Schwimmbad der Welt," which we assume translates to "Please Don't
Pee In Our Beer Pool," it appears that the city of Tarrenz now has a
pool filled with sweet, sweet liquid bread. But don't try drinking
from the beer pool directly—according to this Babelfished
translation, you don't swim in a cool, crisp lager but in filtered,
yeasty wort. Yum! (Thanks, Dennis)
Everyone [We're assuming this means every tank - Ed] is
filled with approximately 20,000 litres barley juice. However the beer
does not flow by any means freshtapped from the cock. The original
fermenting tanks made of high-grade steel are filled with the
so-called Biergelaeger, the remainder yeast, which sets off when
brewing in the beer tank.

Oktoberfest Beer Foamer
Oktoberfest Beer Foamer
09/20/2004 07:06 AM
I think we can all agree that if you've lost the foam on
your mug of beer, you're either drinking something with a lousy head
or you've waited far to long to drink it. Either of those problems can
be fixed without gadgetitanica ebriositas, of course, but if
you want to throw a little technology at the problem, this year's
official Oktoberfest website has a new "Beer foamer" that can restore
the foam to a beer that's lost its head. The problem is, of course,
that it appears to just stir the beer, releasing the carbonation that
would otherwise cause a good beer to sparkle on the tongue, meaning
you'll have a nice, new head on a flat beer. If this had a tiny
nitrogen cartridge that actually re-invigorated the beer then we'd
talk business.

ter to vote and you can get free beer! What better way to reach

something they actually want? Brought to you by the Democrats, of

Any other examples of inventive voter registration drives out there?

12/19/2004 03:48 PMI watched My Coolest Years: The Geeks with Anne and the kids last night.
I thought the show was fantastic, and I was honored to be in such
great company. Open note to The Cool Guy who tormented Jessi Klein or
the girls from The Donnas: Dude, wherever you are, you are a
loser.
Biggest surprise of the show: John Tesh is hellafunny! I remember
that he played a Klingon for a day on Next Generation in the episode
"The Icarus Factor." Well, "played a Klingon" is probably a little too
much . . . he was sort of a featured extra in a line of about twenty
guys who wore Klingon makeup and costumes, and snarled while they
zapped Worf with painsticks. (Back then, a metric ton of celebrities
wanted to be on the show, and they usually ended up wearing crazy
alien make-up. Mick Fleetwood was this weird fish-looking thing, for
example.)
I remember that he was really friendly, and seemed to be getting a
HUGE kick out of the whole thing, but I don't remember him being as
funny as he was on My Coolest Years last night.
Best moment of the show: When I saw that they titled me "Wil
Wheaton: Author of Just A Geek" (which reminds me: Just A Geek has been
recommended by Quint, from Ain't It Cool News! I am in incredibly
good company over there, too. Thanks, Quint!) instead of That
Other Thing.
That's a big deal to me, you know. Though I personally feel that
I'm finally emerging from the shadow of America's Favorite Acting
Ensign And Starfleet Academy Classmate Killing Cadet, I wonder if I'll
ever do that in the eyes of the entertainment industry. This morning's
Dork Tower gives a funny-because-it's-true view
of how that effort is playing out in fandom.
. . . and in casting too, now that I really think about it . . .
but that's okay. The Path I'm currently wandering is a good one.
Absolute coolest moment in the show: They put up a picture of me
with my überhot wife as part of the "Geeks Ultimately Win, So
Bite It, You Cool Kids" portion of the show. Ryan just about died when
he saw Anne, in the coolest "I'm fifteen and I'm so proud of my mom"
way. (Apparently, the kids on his baseball team tried to torment him
by singing "Ryan's mom has got it goin' on" to the tune of "Stacey's
Mom," and he silenced them by replying, "Yeah. My mom's hot. So what?"
Sweet.)
Tonight, VH1 gives us My Coolest Years: The Dirty Hippies, which
should be hilarious. It looks like My Coolest Years could end up being
as great as I Love The 80s, or maybe even better. Go Generation X!
Rock! Yeah! \m/
If anyone from VH1 reads this: I had a blast, you guys. Thanks for
making me look cool. I'd love to work with you some more.

In a surprise move,
Anh
euser-Busch has gone up against some of the biotech firms that
would like to grow genetically-modified (GM) rice containing
human
DNA. The biotech firm that grows it says that their rice contains
synthetic human genes which the company hopes to harvest and refine
for use in medicines to fight diarrhea and dehydration.
Anheuser-Busch's concerns are not with the science of biotech, but
rather the risk of crop-contamination, as has happened with farmers
not only in the
U.S. and
Ca
nada, but
all over the
world. The USDA has issued rice-tweakers
Ventria Bioscience and 300
other biopharmers permission to plant various augmented plants around
the country since 1995, but Anheuser-Busch is the first large
corporation to threaten a boycott - unusual, because
poultry and beef
stock (PDF) are
fed this kind of
thing every
day, and have been
for the past 20 years. I guess the Budweiser
brewers just don't want to see '
dead people' in their
suds...
On the flip-side of this occurrence, the response of the
anti-stem cell activists
has been nothing short of sensory-deprivation. Shouldn't six-packs,
cornfields and
Porky be given the same human rights as the unborn?
