  • Sometime in May, Rudy Panucci will unveil the 100th episode of Radio Free Charleston, his quirky, cultish Web entertainment show. The thought that his odd little program has reached such a milestone amuses him. An eclectic conglomeration of live local and regional bands and acts, fanciful animation, art exhibits, doctored street scenes and wacky humor, the show evolved from a popular rebel radio program he introduced in 1989. He also shares his inventive thinking as a freelance PopCult blogger for the gazz, the expanded Web version of the Gazettes weekly entertainment section. The full beard and ever-present hat give him a distinctive look befitting his off- the-wall take on life. He enjoys toys, comic books, unconventional music, anything in the realm of general weirdness. At 47, hes f...

  • Barbara Streisand once sang: "Memories like the corners of our mind. Misty water-colored memories of the way we were. In this day and time there are better ways to secure our memories than misty watercolors.

  • A $15 million mural removed from the Port Authority of Allegheny County's Gateway Station two years ago as part of the North Shore Connector project is returning home next month. Crews took down "Pittsburgh Recollections," a 60-by-13-foot glazed tile mural by acclaimed black artist Romare Bearden, before demolishing the former light-rail station and shipped the mural to Ohio for restoration.

  • At noon on most Tuesdays and Thursdays, Garet Gordon skips lunch from his outside sales job and spends an hour with a handful of other people playing wallyball on a racquetball court. During the offseason, this is nice," said Gordon, an avid volleyball player.

  • Maintaining the depth charts is an ongoing project. [Mark Chmielinski] sends him an e-mail each morning with a file that highlights any changes on NFL rosters, and [BRIAN BALDINGER] moves magnets accordingly. The only time his depth charts aren't current is when he's on the road. He's broadcasting NFL Europe games now and will have some catching up to do after June 1 cuts. But the process of placing the magnets will help him get back up to speed in, oh, an hour or two.

  • Tuesday afternoon at Spaulding Field in Westwood started off as any other UCLA football practice. And then coach Rick Neuheisel uttered the words, "Let's have a good effort today," and the players took off, leaping over the wall and sprinting back to the locker room.

  • Robot 250" is an old-fashioned art and community project with a techno twist presented as part of Pittsburgh's 250th birthday celebration. I went to Pittsburgh to check out the artist-made BigBots, eleven monumental art works commissioned for "Robot 250" that use robotic parts, and to talk with students who built robots in their schools or used the Mars Exploration Rover technology (called the gigapan) to document and explore their communities. Everyone was high on the project. The artists, in spite of difficulties with their electronically controlled pieces in outdoor environments, were uniformly enthusiastic. I spoke with artist Ian Ingram who curated the BigBots show and is co-founder of Rossum's (www.rossums.org), a working group for robotic artists and engineers. Ingram made the B...

  • Paul [Coors], Jamie [Dillon] and I all collaborated on a recent show at 222 Gallery. This was one of the screenprints from the show," [Nick Paparone] says, holding up Paul Coors' black shirt with a set of giant fanged teeth. "So it started as a piece of art in a show and ends up on a T-shirt. "Black Fireworks" is Paparone's own creation, a black T with eight exploding color fireworks on the front and back. Adam Wallacavage's "Warrior on the Edge of Time" is a yellow shirt with a green automaticgun-wielding alien figure inhabiting the bottom right corner. Jamie Dillon's brown "Tupac" T replicates the legendary rapper's "THUG LIFE" tattoo across the abdominal area, along with all his other tattoos placed on the shirt in the corresponding places where they appeared on his body. Often it'...

  • Consistent with the notion that "you get what you pay for,' the Tribune should not be surprised that what it gets from Arcadia businessman Gerald Plessner's commentary is frequently suspect, if not downright uninformed, or worse. That fact is no better exemplified than by the off-the-wall column written by Plessner calling Rupert Murdoch a fascist, calling Murdoch's FOX News a tool that backs the Republican Party's "propaganda 100 percent,' and calling Bill O'Reilly the "on-air personality that best represents the FOX style and philosophy.'
