  • Kyle Maclachlan
    KYLE MACLACHLAN ACCLAIMED ACTOR KYLE MACLACHLAN has brought indelible charm and a quirky sophistication to some of film and television’s most memorable roles. Since 2005, MacLachlan has channeled his strong interest in the world of wine into a second, equally satisfying professional pursuit. A native of Yaki- ma, Wash., located in the heart of the Columbia Valley wine appellation MacLachlan has produced three highly-rated Columbia Valley wines: Pursued by Bear Cabernet Sauvignon, Baby Bear Syrah and his most recent, Blushing Bear Rosé. What began as an unabashed love for his home state and a desire to stay connected to his family roots has become a true passion and dedication to the craft of winemaking. MacLachlan has be- come an advocate and evangelist for the unique properties and flavor profile of Washington state wines. He is personally involved in every aspect of Pursued by Bear wines. MacLachlan sees a connection between acting and winemaking in terms of the combination and balance of process, patience and creativity. He chose to call his wine Pursued by Bear as an homage to perhaps the most famous of all stage directions, “exit, pursued by bear,” from Act III, scene iii of Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale. It’s a funny and unexpected phrase that’s not only a nod to his theatrical roots but also plays to his sense of humor. “It just seemed to fit what I was trying to do,” he said. MacLachlan is perhaps best known for his performance as FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper in David Lynch’s ground-breaking series Twin Peaks, for which he received two Emmy nominations and a Golden Globe Award.

  • Toni Und Candace Haben Keinen Laden Mehr
    # 2018/10 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2018/10/toni-und-candace-haben-keinen-laden-mehr Die Serie »Portlandia« muss vor linken Kritikern verteidigt werden Toni und Candace haben keinen Laden mehr Von Dierk Saathoff Die Comedyserie »Portlandia« neigt sich ihrem Ende zu, in den USA wird derzeit die finale achte Staffel ausgestrahlt. Die einen finden sie genial, andere aber fühlen sich durch ihren Humor verletzt und vergleichen die Serie gar mit US- Präsident Trumps Ausfällen. »So you want to be entertained / Please go away / Don’t go away.« Diese Zeilen singt Carrie Brownstein, ihres Zeichens Sängerin und Gitarristin der Punkband Sleater-Kinney, in dem passend betitelten Song »Entertain«. Die Ausbeutung der Musiker, grade der Musikerinnen, die Erwartungshaltung des Publikums, von ihnen unterhalten zu werden, die Schwierigkeit der Interpretinnen, genau dem gerecht zu werden und vielleicht doch etwas zu sagen, das den Hörern nicht passt – diese Spannung wird in dem Lied verhandelt. »All you want is entertainment / Rip me open / It’s for free« schreit sie weiter. Unterhaltung als etwas Profanes, Unterhaltung als etwas Vermittelndes, Unterhaltung als Zwang und doch als Freude, Unterhaltung als Notwendigkeit, der man als Musiker nicht entkommt. Es ist kompliziert. Nachdem Sleater-Kinney 2006, ein Jahr nach dem Erscheinen von »Entertain«, eine längere Pause machten, widmete sich Brownstein einem ­anderen Projekt, das die Frage nach Unterhaltung stellt: dem Fernsehen. Zusammen mit ihrem guten Freund Fred Armisen erfand sie erst die Webserie »Thunder Ant«, die sie dann 2009 dem US- amerikanischen Kabelsender IFC anboten. 2011 startete die erste Staffel unter dem Titel »Portlandia«. »Portlandia« ist eine Sketchserie.

He was annoyed, but as a professor who studies information systems, he was also intrigued. Why would the young men want to give up Facebook? Social scientists had been saying the social network was a good thing. “At the time, the main paradigm in social networking research was that Facebook is a positive place, it’s a place of happiness, it’s a place where you have fun, you get entertained, you talk to friends, you feel amused, accepted,” says Hanna Krasnova, an information systems researcher at the University of Advertisement Bern in Switzerland.

  • The Oregonian Opinion: a Building Too Weird for Even Portlandia
    The Oregonian Opinion: A building too weird for even Portlandia By David Sarasohn So to all the other dismal aspects of the Portland Building, we can now add a new one: a $95 million estimate for repairs. It’s not hard to imagine why the price is so high. Looking at the building, you’d wonder where in the universe the contractors would get parts. The Portland Building, after all, doesn’t really look like anything else. All huge blue tiles, colored glass and odd pastel flourishes meant to evoke early modern French paintings, it’s always looked like something designed by a Third World dictator’s mistress’s art-student brother, setting off an upheaval in the palace, and possibly a revolution. A few years ago, it comfortably made it onto Travel + Leisure magazine’s list of theugliest buildings in the world, closely following a tourist hotel in North Korea and the Ohio headquarters of a picnic basket company, a building shaped like – yes – a picnic basket. To try to humanize the building, the city affixed to the front of it a huge two-story statue of Portlandia, a figure locals had never known existed – unless personal legal problems had given them lots of occasions to study the city seal – but who quickly became popular, eventually getting her own TV show. Portlandia became so popular, in fact, that Portlanders swiftly began proposing to move her someplace else. (This has been an awkward situation for Portlandia herself. Reportedly, it has taken several interventions by city labor negotiators to keep her from walking off the building.) The Portland Building was a product of what might be called the city’s Paleo Cool stage, the early ‘80s, when Portland was just switching from lumber to lattes, beginning to think it might actually have a unique identity.
