...strength and diversity, and with a menu as thick as a phone book boasting these as well as more than 1,100 beers from 60 other countries, this cellar bar is a shrine to the brewer's art. In dimly lit, shrine-like surroundings, old enameled advertisements and colorful backlit beer posters adorn the walls, while wooden beer kegs double as tables. It's here that customers can risk curiosities like Tahitian Hinano beer, Baadog from Mongolia, Black Sheep from the Faroe Islands, and fruit and chocolate beers. For $150 you can try a bottle of Framboise Boon...
...play. We are confronted throughout by a giant portrait of Lenin painted on a broken wall, gazing down disapprovingly. His stern demeanor is broken, however, by jars (the brain-containing type) placed in alcoves cut out of the wall close to the ground and later, more strikingly, by backlit X-rays of people harmed by radiation, which shine out from Lenin’s formerly implacable face. Adding to the alternate-reality effect is the use of stilts for the party leaders and fat suits (and in one case, a costume ballooned to ridiculous proportions) for old babushkas...
Another iPod mini challenger is the Zen Micro, made by Singapore-based Creative Technology. Like the H10, the Zen Micro sports an FM radio and audio/voice recording.

...Degrees of Separation’s production is fairly orthodox, featuring a minimalist but functional design, few sound effects, and some trick lighting that includes unfortunate usage of shadow on backlit cloth. It’s a simple look that lets the actors speak for themselves—not well enough to raise the play to the level of genius, but well enough for an entertaining and mildly thought-provoking night...
