...that comes packed in a Styrofoam tub, and asking: Is it art or is it dinner? "We aren't saying that cooking is a new art form," says Ruth Noack, Documenta's curator. "We're saying that Ferran Adrià shows artistic intelligence." That distinction was lost last summer when director Roger Buergel announced that Adrià would be part of this summer's show, which opened on June 16 and runs through Sept. 23.

Facebook began admitting high schoolers in 2005, started hooking up workplace networks (first at companies that employ lots of recent grads) in April 2006 and opened to all in September...
...human star of this summer's warring-alien-robot event film, Transformers; the voice of the lead penguin in the animated Surf's Up; the vulnerable bad boy in this spring's surprise hit, the Hitchcockian teen thriller Disturbia; and Spielberg's hand-picked choice to co-star with Ford and Cate Blanchett in the long-awaited fourth Indiana Jones movie due next May, LaBeouf is blowing up faster than a stunt car on a Michael Bay set. In an age when potential action heroes seem to be either rugged '80s relics like Ford and Sylvester Stallone or sensitive thespians...
