aquapod


i was reading this design blog, and saw this image of the aquapod, a ocean-bound fish farm that floats along and grows seafood for us to nom.

part of the idea here is to set these guys on their mission in a ocean current, and tend them along the way until they finally reach a destination like miami full of fully grown fish. what if you were swimmin along and stumbled upon a aquapod full of giant isopods. shudder.

Faceoff at the MoMA

have you heard about that lady at the MoMA who sits in a chair all day facing a table and an empty chair?

her name is marina abramovic and she is a performance artist whose current show is called "The Artist is Present." you might remember that sex and the city episode with the artist who starved herself... where carrie first met alexandr petrovsky? that was based on abramovic.

anyway. a funny thing happened the other day when another performance artist from brooklyn dressed up just like marina and got first in line and sat in the chair opposite her all day. read her interview. she says describes the experience, and says when the exhibit finally closed for the night, she finally got a smile from the artist.

summer reading


i was reading this list of awesome celeb (lady) biographies on jezebel (dont judge) and remembered that i havn't yet read I, Tina.

just as predicted.

thanks a lot, president obama. now that you've pushed healthcare through, the apocalypse is underway. just like the republicans said would happen. and it's starting in poor little rhode island.

"We have some historic flooding going on in places we've never had flooding before," said Cranston, Rhode Island, police Lt. Stephen Antonucci. "We have numerous streets that are closed, and they're telling us the worst is still yet to come."


All eyes were on the Pawtuxet River, which runs through Cranston. The river stood at 20.64 feet as of about 7 a.m. ET -- nearly 12 feet above flood stage of 9 feet. It is forecast to crest at 20.7 feet Wednesday morning, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. (via)

jersey's gettin' it pretty hard too. jicne1c.

the short second life of bree tanner


stephanie meyer is cashing in on the twilight franchise again (as is her right, no judgement here). she has penned a 200 page "novella" centered on the story of one of the newborns involved in the eclipse victoria attacks.

starla says: "i am of course excited. no matter how shitty."

i say: im not sure i can devote any more brain space to this.

what say you?

paris hilton, new music



anyone with any good sense bought paris hilton's first album, paris and rocked out to it on their fire escape all summer long. luckily we're finally being graced with some more to savor.

guess who is gay today?


answer: i know youre thinking thomas wilhelm, and yes... but the answer i am thinking of is ricky martin. he finally admitted his gayness today on the internet.

you want to hear a weird story?



three days ago i remembered this song that i loved and wore out on itunes. i found it on youtube, but it was a shitty version with a commercial in front, so i held off on blogging it. today i see that joey tony pepperoni just buzzed about this same song and i was blown away. get out of my head joey tony. then i commented to him how weird it was that he buzzed what i was going to blog, and he said that kylie had emailed the link to him! cue twilight theme. two peas in a pea pod

oh yeah, and happy pritzker prize winning to SANAA. this year's prize is only the second time a woman has won the annual prize ((zaha hadid, 2004), and it's also only the second time a duo has won (herzog + de meuron, 2001).

y'all been watching life?

meet my new favorite animal, eleanor the elephant shrew. she has a finger for a nose.

better than the original 'telephone' video?

sure am proud.


Given all that, you hardly expected Michigan State to be able to summon a great -- not merely good -- performance. But they did, because they had to. It took greatness to beat Tennessee on Sunday. (via)

y'all did good, basketvols.

But you ARE Blanche. You ARE in that chair!



i watched Whatever Happened to Baby Jane last night. it was delightful, but especially so with the foreknowledge that these two leading ladies actually hated each other in real life. Bette Davis was really kicking Joan Crawford in one scene, and Joan put extra weights in her robe so that Bette threw her back out when she had to drag Joan around. DIVAS!!!! it is streaming on netflix in case you wondered.

listen to this song...



...to get in a friday mood!!

ctm : andy coop swims with sharks without a cage. can't live his daily life without a closet.

more like SUCKeyes!!!

i have to admit it. i'm super nervous. ohio state has always been my most hated school. but that hatred stems mostly from their unimpressive success in that sorry excuse for a college football conference. but basketball? i barely know anything about it / them.

what i do know is this:

no one has made a peep about tennessee this whole tournament. just scroll through the 'college basketball' section of any major sports news outlet, and you won't find us in a single headline. the only way to read about us is to go to teams>tennessee. then you MIGHT find a preview for our upcoming game, but even then, they're just going to talk about how good the suckeyes are.

tennessee has been in the sweet 16 three of the last four years. but that's also as far as we've ever gone. no one expects tennessee to win. and you know what that means....

tune in at 7.07pm EST tonight! to see the basketvols make history!!

YOU'RE WELCOME!


Also makes me a little sad. Are these puppies in heaven?

harnessing the power of the ghost chili, to make grenades!

The bhut jolokia, otherwise known as the ghost chili, is so powerful, so spicy that the Indian army wants to use it to fight terrorists. They're working on a stun grenade harnessing the power of the chili, which has been deemed the hottest pepper in the world at more than one million Scoville heat units. By comparison, a jalapeno might have a Scoville rating of 5,000.

Well, it turns out the ghost chili has been deployed for the last year and a half, not in a grenade but on a burger, at Chunky's Burgers in San Antonio, Texas, where Joey Prado is the owner. (via)

it doesnt look to me like prinny loves to swim

CS5 is coming to f**k up everything you thought you knew about reality with "content-aware fill":

WINCHESTER, Ind.—Like many of his neighbors, farmer Tony Goltstein has to deal with the aftermath of the dairy bubble.

But besides his mounting financial troubles, Mr. Goltstein also must contend with bubbles the size of small houses that have sprouted from the pool of manure at his Union Go Dairy Farm. Some are 20 feet tall, inflated with the gas released by 21 million gallons of decomposing cow manure.

Um... What?

Chinese boy has 31 fingers, toes

The six-year-old boy, whose name has not been released, has 16 toes and 15 fingers.

One of the fingers is incomplete and appears on X-ray photographs as a “fork” sticking out from the right thumb.

Three fingers on each of the boy’s hands are also fused together by skin.

The boy, from Shenyang in China’s north-eastern Liaoning province, beats the current world record held Indian boys Pranamya Menaria and Devendra Harne, who have 12 fingers and 13 toes.

Doctors will today attempt to remove the boy’s extra digits.

The condition is known as polydactyly.

my new favorite expression : "swish it up a bit"

burn.

new york times op-ed columnist bob herbert burns the GOP up alive:

This is the party of trickle down and weapons of mass destruction, the party of birthers and death-panel lunatics. This is the party that genuflects at the altar of right-wing talk radio, with its insane, nauseating, nonstop commitment to hatred and bigotry.

Glenn Beck of Fox News has called President Obama a “racist” and asserted that he “has exposed himself as a guy, over and over and over again, who has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture.”

Mike Huckabee, a former Republican presidential candidate, has said of Mr. Obama’s economic policies: “Lenin and Stalin would love this stuff.”

The G.O.P. poisons the political atmosphere and then has the gall to complain about an absence of bipartisanship. (via)

rockstar

Did everyone watch Gossip Girl last night? Yes, I am sure you all did because it is the shit.
Any which ways, you know the part when Lil J skipped school to go meet drug dealer Damien so he could take her v card?
She totally stomped out of her apartment to Rihanna's "Rockstar." I hadn't heard the song till last night, but I oc like it.

Did you know that...

They sell lights for cornhole boards and lighted plexi-boards, so you can play into the evening hours! We are building boards and were joking the other day how we should add lights for later play. Turns out the internet has thought of EVERYTHING!



























Also, this guy went to town and built lights recessed into his board.

not to be confused with...

i like america, and america likes me. the 1974 performance piece by joseph beuys. mr. beuys, german, flew to new york city and was transported via ambulance to a performance space in the rené block gallery. there he spent 8 hours, over three days, in a room with a gray felt blanket, and a coyote. for all intents and purposes, mr beuyes never stepped foot in america as he never saw anything other than the airport, and the interior of the gallery. footage of his arrival in nyc is at the beginning of we like america, and america likes us.



thanks emily!

this video accompanies an installation as part of the whitney biennial. produced by the bruce high quality foundation, it was probably the only interesting example of video art to be had. to give a little context , the video is projected from inside a ghost busters style, curtained 1972 miller-meteor ambulance/hearse onto the windshield of the vehicle, hence the ghost busters footage. enjoy!
