...STUDIO KACHAMA: From its austere black façade, you know you're in for something different at Kachama Perez's nearly two-year-old store, tel: (66) 5321 9499. Taking traditional appliqué patches from nearby Hmong, Karen and Yao villages, Perez-who studied textile design in Japan-splices them into her woven creations with colorful beads and shimmering organza. The effect is stunning (as are the prices, with a 5.5-meter wall hanging costing over $9,000).

This tiny crew, only three of whom graduated from college, has built software that many in the world of Web 2.0 consider the best for small-business collaboration. One of its development tools, Ruby on Rails, is the backbone for dozens...
...Studio heads are so sure of Rogen's appeal that in addition to financing The Pineapple Express, which Rogen and Goldberg wrote, they've already made the kids' movie he wrote, Drillbit Taylor. And he's so excited that the studio is making Pineapple, his violent stoner action comedy, that he forces people on the set to touch the bloody prosthetic ear he's wearing. He is giddy about his on-set injuries (including a sprained finger and bruised ribs), and the explosive Butt-head-like giggle that punctuates everything he says betrays his excited nervousness. "After every single take...
