He produces and publishes three magazines that, though they have small print runs, have a near-religious following: the six-year-old Fanzine 137 – a compendium of everything Venegas cares about, Electric Youth (EY!) Magateen – an oversized cornucopia of adolescent boyflesh started in 2008, and the high- ly lauded Candy – the first truly queer fashion magazine on the planet, which was launched last year. His all-encompassing, erudite view of the fashion universe is the foundation for Venegas’ next big project: the fashion academy he plans to start in 2011. It will be a place where people, as he says, “who are interested in fashion learn about certain key moments from history, film and pop culture.” To get a preview of the curriculum at Professor Venegas’ School of Fashion, Suleman Anaya paid Venegas a visit at his apartment in the Madrid neighborhood of Malasaña, a wonderful space that overflows with the collected objects of his boundless curiosity.

  • Maple Syrup: a Sweet Sign of Early Spring by Paula Mchugh
    THE TM 911 Franklin Street Weekly Newspaper Michigan City, IN 46360 Volume 21, Number 8 Thursday, March 3, 2005 Maple Syrup: A Sweet Sign of Early Spring by Paula McHugh Maple sugaring time is when daytime temperatures rise above the 32 degree freezing mark, and then drop again below freezing during the nighttime. Which means that we are now heading into that time of year in early, early spring when the sap starts flowing. Hurray! Hurray for two reasons: who doesn’t look forward to the promise of warmer days ahead, and who doesn’t appreciate the sweetness of pure maple syrup dribbled over a stack of pancakes? Yet, how many of us are aware that we could be tapping our own maple trees about now–if we are fortunate enough to have maples on our property? A recent program about everything you ever wanted to know about maple sugar farming was recently presented at the Deep River County Park Visitor Center by Historic Programs Coordinator Joanna Shearer, and the Beacher was there to learn and pass on a few tips for maple sugaring wannabes. Let’s get the trivia out of the way and tell you right now that Vermont is NOT the number one state for maple sugar pro- duction. New York claims that title. But here in the Midwest, Michigan ranks high as a maple syrup producer. Parke County Indiana, home of the most covered bridges, is a large syrup-producing area. And locally, Deep River Park produced nearly 500 bottles of the sweet syrup last year.

  • Taking Comics Seriously
    POP CULTURE clusively with daytime. The show features no gunfights or car chases; there are moments of leisurely, uneventful conversation between the younger and older generations. It is a curious inversion: Where once daytime TV fled prime time, prime time now copies daytime. The evidence is every- where, from the success of The Forsyte Saga and Upstairs Down- stairs (soap operas with extra starch) to major television serials like Rich Man Poor Man, Roots, and Captains and Kings. Spec- taculars aside, even a regular offering such as Family reflects a soap-opera sense of continuity. The major characters suffer. They have affairs, consider marriage, drop out of school, worry about mortality It goes too far to say that daytime dramas are genuinely realistic. The necessities of the form require too many brushes with the kinds of crises that most families would suffer only a few times in a generation. But both soaps and game shows have certainly tried to move television closer to what Paddy Chayefsky called "the marvelous world of the ordinary." What daytime TV has given prime time is the possibility of exploring characters not through the prism of fantasy, but through a focus closer to the way most of us spend our lives. And that is no mean contribution. TAKING COMICS SERIOUSLY by Arthur Asa Berger New art forms are often greeted with derision. Attic tragedy was denounced by conservative Greeks, impressionism by high- brow Parisians. Americans, too, have snubbed new, indigenous art forms. The comics, for example, like jazz music, are a home- grown American product; and like jazz, they were long ignored by "serious" critics.

  • New on Video &
    New On Video & DVD Yes Man Jim Carrey returns to hilarious form with this romantic comedy in the same vein as the Carrey classic Liar Liar. After a few stints in more serious features like Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind and The Number 23, Carrey seems right at home playing Carl, a divorcé who starts out the film depressed and withdrawn, scared of taking a risk. Pressured by his best friend, Peter (Bradley Cooper), to get his act together or be stuck with a lonely life, Carl attends a New Age self-help seminar intended to change "no men" like Carl into "yes men" willing to meet life's challenges with gusto. Carl is reluctant at first, but finds the seminar to be ultimately life-changing when he's coerced into giving the "say yes" attitude a try. As the first opportunity to say yes presents itself, Carl hesitantly utters the three-letter word, setting the stage for a domino effect of good rewards, and giving Carrey a platform to show off his comic chops. But over time Carl realizes that saying yes to everything indiscriminately can reap results as complicated and messy as his life had become when saying "no" was his norm. The always-quirky Zooey Deschanel adds her signature charm as Carl's love interest, Allison. An unlikely match at first glance, the pair actually develop great chemistry as the story progresses, the actors play- ing off each other's different styles of humor. Rhys Darby also shines as Carl's loveable but clueless boss, and That 70s Show's Danny Masterson appears as another one of Carl's friends.
