anybody catch colbert last night? it was notable as the last show of the year but also because it had a green screen guitar solo challenge with the guitarist from the decembrists and colbert. colbert after donning the famed five necked guitar from cheap trick feigns injury only to be replaced by peter frampton and his talk box. the challenge was anti-climatic but the show closed with the four guitarists (apples in stereo lead singer opened the show with a song and the dude from cheap trick who wrote the colbert themesong joined in) playing the themesong with colbert hooked up to the talkbox. that was the best moment. the morley safer, eliot spitzer and henry kissenger cameos created a surreal line-up. more bizarre than entertaining really.

The art would then stay up only for a few days before the contractors moved in with drywall to cover up the interior works and pressure hoses to erase those on the outside. There would be no sponsors, no press releases, no payments to the artist and no artwork for sale. As much as it is still possible in today’s art world, it would be art for art’s sake, a fleeting salute to a fleeting form.
Now, after nearly two months of work by 45 artists, the show is almost ready. The building’s doors will be unlocked tomorrow for an open house that will continue through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. On Monday work will begin that will eventually seal most of the interior artwork behind pipes, wires and drywall.
RIP Peter Boyle -- D and I watched "Young Frankenstein" Sunday on the flight back from Fla. The "Putting on the Ritz" bit is a classic.
I'm looking forward to a trip on Portland's new OHSU Aerial Tram, I just don't want to be the first - or last - person to ride it.

Using PowerPoint, rock anthems, and audience interaction, Andrew "AC"
Dickson and Susan Beal are out to convince you that eBay selling is
personally lucrative, good for this country, and ultimately a
meaningful step towards world peace and a better tomorrow. A
performance art piece that also works as a comedic anti-corporate
corporate seminar, AC Dickson: eBay PowerSeller is absolutely the best
hour-long eBay education around, as well as “a very astute, highly
entertaining treatise on capitalism, market forces, and the American
dream that carries wry hints of send-up and satire.” –– The Glasgow
Herald

I've seen the show and recommend.
Al Qaeda is what, I asked, Sunni or Shia?
“Al Qaeda, they have both,” [incoming Democratic chairman of the House Intelligence Committee] Reyes said. “You’re talking about predominately?”
“Sure,” I said, not knowing what else to say.
“Predominantly — probably Shiite,” he ventured.
As the article points out, this man makes $165,200. Nice work if you can get it. Has he purposefully tried to not read anything on the subject of Al Qaeda? How is it even possible not to know this?
Debka, a right-ish Israeli military news source not very well respected, claims that Gates listed Israel as a nuclear power in his testimony before congress. That seems like maybe a big deal. Everyone supposes that Israel has nukes, but as far as I know no major US administration officials have ever confirmed this. Am I wrong? Certainly Israel has a policy of not admitting (or denying) this. Was it just a slip of the tongue, or is this a first step to maybe getting at the heart of the matter in the MidEast? (I can dream, can't I?)

U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Alexander Karsner today announced that with DOE funding, a concentrator solar cell produced by Boeing-Spectrolab has recently achieved a world-record conversion efficiency of 40.7 percent, establishing a new milestone in sunlight-to-electricity performance. This breakthrough may lead to systems with an installation cost of only $3 per watt, producing electricity at a cost of 8-10 cents per kilowatt/hour, making solar electricity a more cost-competitive and integral part of our nation’s energy mix.Here's the +5 slashdot comments.

This is a documentary premiering in New Orleans tomorrow and features three of M's "kids" on Dumaine, Jonathan, Joshua, and Mario. In the clip there is also a brief cameo of Fermin, sitting on steps with longish hair and white t-shirt. Produced, written, directed and edited by M's friend and former employer, Dr. Vince Morelli, who was very active on Dumaine after I left and opening first scene of Jonathan in clip is shot in front of, but looking across the street, from Dumaine house. Mario, I may have mentioned a couple of years ago, was shot five times while sitting on his stoop around the corner, and survived.
