What I learned about the icon by folding her capri pants. The excerpt below is from Simon Doonan’s Gay Men Don’t Get Fat, out today from Penguin. There was, for many years, a big photograph of Judy Garland by the late, great William Claxton duct-taped to the wall of the Barneys display studio where I worked. In this compelling image, Liza’s highly strung mother is caught backstage wrapped in a towel. Her face is a festival of anguish. One rigor mortis hand [...]

In a potentially fatal blow to the Anti-Counterfeit Trade Agreement (ACTA), Germany’s Foreign Office announced today that it will not sign the contentious treaty as protests heat up in 200 cities across Europe. Germany, which has the largest economy in the European Union, follows in the footsteps of Latvia, Poland and the Czech Republic, which signed ACTA, but later said they would block ratification of the treaty. If ratified by the European Parliament, ACTA would set strict international standards for intellectual property law, and create a new governing body to [...]
Total Recall, the Paul Verhoeven directed sci-fi flick starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, originally came out as a Carolco production in 1990. Ronny Cox did a great job chewing the scenery as the main bad guy Vilos Cohaagen, a man with supreme authority to run Mars and do anything he wants as long as the tribinium kept flowing. Schwarzenegger, as Douglas Quaid, visited Rekall – a company that sells fake memories – for a vacation from his dull life as a construction [...]

San Francisco: The Miniature City is a special look into one America’s most interesting cities. Post-processed to create the tilt-shift or “miniature” effect, the tour of San Francisco uncovers many of the West Coast city’s most iconic landmarks as well as peering into everyday life as though seeing it in miniature in a display case. While the video draws immediate comparisons to The Sand Pit which focused on New York City, the overview of San Francisco is still a much different landscape. [...]
The US government says that Megaupload founder Kim Dotcom masterminded a vast file sharing conspiracy that swindled the entertainment industry out of millions by letting users illegally download movies and songs. By putting Dotcom behind bars, the feds didn’t just end Megaupload though, once one of the most visited sites on the Web. By ending the operation, authorities have also pulled the plug on an endeavor that was scheduled to launch later this year that could have legitimately disrupted Hollywood by [...]
