...just two weeks of happy, drunk people cavorting around the streets half naked. And like every year, my innate Scottish reserve stops me from jumping into the fray with the same abandon as everyone else. Yet as I slip my cocktail back in my belt and watch grown adults spray each other with foam, I know that if I really want to enjoy myself, I must join the ranks of those happy drunk people cavorting around half naked. "Carnival is interaction," agrees my friend Tatiana Guimaraes. "You have to get in there in the middle...

Give the folks at NASA this much - they know how to close ranks. Astronaut Lisa Marie Nowak was arrested this week and charged with attempted murder after driving 900 miles from Houston to Orlando, Fla., allegedly carrying a knife, a BB gun, pepper spray, latex gloves and rubber tubing-wearing a diaper all the while so she wouldn't have to stop en route-and assaulting a romantic rival in a parking lot.

...slides, and Darren Siwes' ghostly self-portrait projected onto a Henson-like night-time landscape, to vacated urban spaces in which we are left to trace subtle signs of life-whether it be in a ray of sunlight retreating from Annie Hogan's Brisbane rental house, or the silvery spray of Scott Redford's Gold Coast urinal. Such images remind us that reality is sometimes best expressed by what is absent or left behind. The exhibition is not called light sensitive for nothing (this also happens to be the nickname given to the NGV's departments of photography and works...

...another level, the performer who called himself the Hardest Working Man in Show Business wasn?t kidding. In a nonstop one-hour show Brown did spray his energy around like ballplayers with champagne after the big win. Further, he extended this sense of urgency to the entire show. Elvis was attitude, J.B. was epic drama. Other singers had their little 2min. narratives of sexual depression or release; Brown?s show was a kind of musical play, ending with the (literally) show-stopping ?Please Please Please? - his death and resurrection as a comic-opera Calvary. The life story...
