| | | 05/31/12 | | The weekend ordered you a five on rye. | | | | | | | THE VOICE | Your Pictures Can Talk Now | | Anyone can take a picture. Point. Snap. Done. And that’s fine. But turns out, there’s a new twist on the whole picture-taking thing... your voice. Yes, you can now take a picture, add five seconds of audio and send it via Facebook, Twitter or email. Voice captions are the new caption-captions. | | | | | | | SPONSORED MESSAGE | | | | OLD-SCHOOL | How Heineken Got So Delicious | | It’s time you learned about the Heineken A-yeast. It’s their holy grail. It took 17 years and a student of Louis Pasteur to find it back in ’86 (that’s 1886). But once they nailed it, they knew they’d never change it. So for the past 126 years, they haven’t. Carry on... | | | | | | | | | SHORTS STORY | There’s a Beach on Your Swim Shorts | | Speaking of pictures, someone just superimposed a bunch of those on your swim shorts. That someone: Orlebar Brown. Those pictures: a different summer-themed print every month—think Slim Aarons shots of beach scenes from Jamaica and Monte Carlo. Wearing Monte Carlo in Monte Carlo, now a thing. | | | | | | | | | CAR MAX | A New Shrine for Cars. Sexy, Sexy Cars. | | There’s a new museum opening this weekend in Washington State. Which is about as exciting as making toast. Until you throw in the fact that it’s the largest automobile museum in North America—complete with 3,500 cars (1921 Model T, ’42 Chevy Blackout...) from Harold LeMay’s personal collection. Then it’s great. | | | | | | | | | THE TWEET IS ON | Resurrecting Politicians’ Deleted Tweets | | Politicians. They’re a slippery lot. In fact, it’s probably a good idea to keep an eye on them. By stalking their deleted tweets. And hey, here’s a new website that does just that, by bringing politicians’ accidental/embarrassing tweets back from the dead after they’ve already been deleted. You’re like Twitter Columbo. | | | | | | | | | LONDON CALLING | A Big Red Olympics Survival Kit | | The Olympics are coming up. And maybe you’re in them. Then again, maybe you’re definitely not. Either way, there’s a big red rucksack you should know about. Mostly because it’s an Olympics Survival Kit filled with things like a raincoat, a disposable camera and... some coconut water. So yeah, only the essentials. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
