...dominant gender in a menage-a-trois relies on the subjugation of the third individual. Such an obvious rule is complicated by I Get's three-way freeway between Hal Elujah, Stella Virgin and Brook Werm. Two men, one woman? Three men? One man, two women (assuming that if women in the Hasty Pudding show are men, then men are women)? Stella Virgin (Robert Schlesinger '00) is a dangerously subversive character, a postmodern repetition of the much-parodied "White House intern" figure. Doused in blush and armed with a lolli (ta)pop, Schlesinger's cotton candy-cum-phallus...
...introduced a service that gives consumers as much as two minutes of free long distance for every 10-to-15-sec. targeted ad they hear. Already 40,000 callers have surfed to www.broadpoint.com to fill out a detailed questionnaire and obtain a PIN for the 800 service, known as FreeWay.

The rumors had become official: America Online was buying their feisty company. As you might imagine, none of the people there greeted this as good news. "Netscape is dead," an employee said bitterly. "This was the funeral...
...vistas and insect masses presented precisely the sort of complex problems that digital innovators live for--that thrilling "You're kidding!" moment when the boss hands out a visual wish list for the tech guys to make come true. A recent tour of the Pixar studio, hidden in the freeway sprawl east of San Francisco, made clear how projects like A Bug's Life erase the boundaries between technology and art. Model builders sculpt clay facsimiles of the film's characters. Traditional animators act out roles before video cameras to decide just how the characters' limbs should move. Graphics jocks...
...center is like a campus; it constitutes a cluster of many buildings, all of which Meier designed. Here the public parts of the complex are aligned with the freeway and UCLA, while the areas with more private needs (i.e. the library) are on the residential seaside. He aimed to use the outdoor spaces in this development just as much as the indoor spaces. Considering the elaborate arrival area, which allows visitors to rest, eat and plan outside before entering the complex, as just one of many examples--I think he succeeded...
