William Staples: New Paintings at 65 Grand
2009-09-11 17:07:00 by Jeriah HildwineI'll be the first to admit that my relationship with William Staples' New Paintings was not one of love at first sight. On first glance they appear either faux-naieve or obstinately modernist: flat paint, bright colors, simple forms, and compositions that seem geometrically-arranged but rough-edged; a sort of Basquiat-cum-Mondrian, or Hans Hoffman meets Matisse. Not generally speaking my cup of tea, respectable in its historical context but not bearing repeating....

Budapest, Hungary - Formula 1 Grand Prix
2009-07-26 01:00:00 I took a photo of Jenson Button driving in his Formula 1 car today. The shot took my camera 1/125th of a second to make. In that single moment, 4 of the 10 teams racing spent $32 each competing in Formula 1. Over the next lap, which was about 84 seconds long, they would each spend $336,134, or thereabouts, racing in a series they know they cannot win this season. Though hearing the cars start up and fly around the circuit helps make up for it. I flew out to Hungary on Saturday morning to watch the Formula 1 race. I took a cheap Hungarian (or Polish, I'm not sure) Airline called Wizz Air (yes, like peeing) because it was cheap and most convenient for me. I was surprised not to see any other visible Formula 1 fans on the flight but instead, Lewis Hamilton's Dad! I was so shocked I didn't know what to do but I knew I had to do something. I grabbed the receipt for my race day ticket and went over to his seat and introduced myself. He kindly signed it and asked if I was goin...

Construction update: New subway entrances for Grand Red Line
2009-07-02 02:59:00 As the Grand Red Line construction project enters Stage 2, riders will enter and exit at one new corner, as another is shuttered. But for the busy July 3-5 holiday weekend, three of the four entrances will serve the madding crowd. However, don't get too used to three of the four entrances being open for the first time in a year. On Monday, July 6, the northwest entrance closes, and we're back to using the old northeast entrance. But the new southeast entrance will be put into service. As I reported earlier, in Stage 2, two new staircases to the north- and southbound platforms will open. The current southbound stair and escalator from mezzanine to platform will be temporarily closed. Both will...

What are the top 5 biggest races in Motorsports? The Indy 500, Monaco Grand
2009-05-19 23:21:00 It’s a beautiful Tuesday evening, 70 degrees outside and sunny up here in Massachusetts and yet I am already thinking about the weekend, but not just any weekend, Memorial Day Weekend. Memorial Day Weekend is the biggest weekend in motorsports especially for me, on Sunday, two of the biggest race in motorsports will get the green flag, the Monaco Grand Prix and the Indianapolis 500 and history shows that both races should be exciting.This weekend also marks NASCAR’s second biggest and longest race of the season and ironically enough it is on Sunday as well, the Coca-Cola 600. Think about for a moment, I know I have, every year Motorsports fans sit down to watch one, two or even three (counting the NASCAR race) including me of these races in one day, damn that’s cool.Since this is the biggest Motorsports weekend, I figure that this is the perfect time to ask, what are the top 5 biggest races in Motorsports? I have been thinking about this question for a little while now and whi...

Best Of The Day: Grand Cookie Sheet
2009-04-27 03:29:00 Cookies are the great after-school snack and often a child?s first introduction to baking. But finding a cookie sheet that won?t burn your dough to charcoal can be a problem, one that the founders of Doughmakers were also frustrated by. Sisters Bette LaPlante and Diane Cuvelier initially marketed their cookie sheets for a Boy Scouts fundraiser. When customers went wild for the pans, with their uncoated, pebbled surface, the sisters expanded their business, eventually launching a retail line in 2001 and winning endorsements from long-established southern baking staples Clabber Girl Baking Powder and White Lily Flour… Full Review http://www.doughmakers.com/

Grand Theft Auto 5 Expected in 2010
2009-04-07 18:29:00 Well GTA 4 might not be a big business for Rockstar but this doesn't stops Rockstar from making a next game in the franchise, Grand Theft Auto 5. Though not officially confirmed, but from sources close to the company, words about Grand Theft Auto 5 or in short GTA 5 are started coming. We don't have any actual details about the game and are presently believing on what is arising around.Grand Theft Auto 5 release date had been discussed by Game Trailers earlier which the website said to be possible in 2010 only because Rockstar would be busy creating DLC for the Grand Theft Auto 4 in 2009. This comes out to be absolutely true with the release of The Lost and Damned in February. Another DLC is being under development by the company which will release in coming months.This means atleast by the last quarter of this year GTA 5 will definitely be not possible because Rockstar would never like to loose sales for GTA 4 which are short already. This can be further extended to mid 2010 taki...

No GTA Harbour City game has been leaked out nor the one will come in future unless Rockstar itself confirms it.IGN has provided massive details on Grand Theft Auto Harbour City which they are claiming to be the next game in the long running popular GTA franchise from Rockstar. All the information they have provided on Grand Theft Auto Harbour City is on the basis on leaked game documentation they somehow managed to get from some source at Rockstar Bondi Studio who is in possession of this brand new game.From the story plot to gameplay to release date, it looks as if IGN managed to get all the details on Grand Theft Auto Harbour City in the game documentation.

Travelling on Grand Trunk Road
2009-03-11 05:06:00 Travelling on Grand Trunk Road all my life, it captured my imagination as a cultural curiosity when I read Rudyard Kipling?s Kim. At the beginning of the last century Kipling called it ?a wonderful spectacle?. without crowding?. green-arched, shade-flecked ? a rivear of life.? But Pakistan?s National Highway Number 5 (N-5), alias the Grand Trunk Road, or simply the GT Road, presents a different impression now. Commuting up and down the GT Road are caravans of trucks, buses, cars, animals and animal transport also auto-rickshaws, all having equal right of the way. On the GT Road every bus, truck, and a car must pass the vehicle ahead. ?The GT Road,? a veteran traveller John Otto wrote says, ?really belongs to the trucker.? And he is right in a way. Have you Travelled there lately? Seen any changes?

Grand Theft Auto IV Gets "Lost And Damned"
2009-02-20 00:58:00 Take Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto IV too seriously and you'll probably miss most of what it's up to. (scroll down for more GTA IV: Lost & Damned Screenshots!) Take Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto IV too seriously and you'll probably miss most of what it's up to. It's a game, of course, but it's also a biting, unremitting satire. Juvenile-seeming to some, sure, with its lewd and frequently misogynist humor, but no less a scathing sendup of American culture when you strip the top layers away. It's a mirror, but one held up to our silly instead of our serious side. A parody of parodies. A bad-boy-burlesque. That it even offends other satirists (who take special pleasure in calling it sophomoric) simply proves its point.And now there's a sequel of sorts called "The Lost and Damned," or a parallel narrative expansion if you want to get technical about it. But with anywhere from 15 to 40 hours of play time for just 1600 Microsoft Points ($20) it packs more to-dos than you'll find i...

In Grand Style - Bang & Olufsen Launches Golden Colour
2009-02-16 13:44:00 Bang & Olufsen have created a new line of its products available in a luxurious gold dye finish. The new release is inspired to complement luxury interiors.In fact, the golden colour was specifically requested by the exclusive boutique hotel Villa Rothschild in Königstein, Germany. Built from 1888 to 1894 for the financier Wilhelm Carl von Rothschild, Villa Rothschild was recently awarded the coveted five-star superior status due in no small part to points earned for the bespoke golden coloured Bang & Olufsen products installed in the guest rooms as well as in the common and recreational areas."I chose Bang & Olufsen for the AV-installation at the completely renovated Villa Rothschild as the company is world renowned for the exquisite quality and beauty of its products," said Bernhard L.
