Finally, Hae-Shin Chung’s installation, “The Cell—The Daily Life of a Sojourner,” is an amalgam of highly intricate silkscreen prints, projected images, and readymade objects covered in hot glue. The glue sheath gives the objects a unique duality—in the light they glimmer like crystal while in the shadows they appear to be coated in melted candle wax. The work of SMFA students, however, is not confined to the SMFA galleries. Next door, an exhibit at the MFA, which opened on Saturday April 10th, features...
...doesn't really matter that gourmet food trucks were busting out in American cities a few years before Choi parked his first food truck, in November 2008. Or that short-rib tacos weren't even his idea. (A former co-worker's sister-in-law, Alice Shin, had read about a homemade version on a food blog and, as Kogi's publicist, helped hype them through masterful Twitter and website work, which turned the truck's mysterious whereabouts into a hipster happening.) Choi's amazing food has become one of the movement's signature successes. Kogi made $2 million...
...jogging on a public high school track. There are palm trees in the distance, and the low hum of traffic on I-10 is starting to turn into a low roar as the Filipino boxer, clad in a red tracksuit, dashes around the dirt oval despite a painful shin splint.

The court also concluded that Thaksin, in violation of Thai law, still controlled the company while serving as Prime Minister. He accomplished this, the court said, by using family members and others as nominees and transferring shares in an intricate web of deals through offshore companies in the British Virgin Islands and other...
...bumpy mountain at 65 m.p.h. while maintaining a near perfect technical position gives you a healthy rush of adrenaline. On Wednesday morning, Vonn's teammate Julia Mancuso turned in the downhill ride of her life at Whistler Creekside, setting herself up for an upset gold. But Vonn responded, achy shin and all, finishing the 1.8-mile course in 1 min. 44.19 sec., beating eventual silver medalist Mancuso by 0.66 sec. Vonn's run was even more amazing considering that several top skiers crashed on the speedy course...
