Doctor Who today is more popular than ever before, but what about its history? The second Doctor, Patrick Troughton broke new ground back in the mid 1960s when he had to take over from William Hartnell, the first Doctor.
It’s hard to imagine today what the reaction must have been when the main character of the popular show transformed in front of their eyes into a different person, but Troughton was the right one to cast and the show continued for another twenty years. Doctor Who fans everywhere can be happy with the new success of the revived series, but it was the work of the first and second Doctor who set the stage for everything that came later.

On 21st February 2009 the German music award, the Echo, will take place at O2 World in Berlin for the 18th time. Since 1992 the award has been given for 24 categories every year.

Channeling Andy Kaufman he sure is, because Joaquin Phoenix steals pretty much the entire night of television away from everyone else.

If you didn’t watch this performance art and/or gigantic public meltdown, you missed out on probably the most memorable interview on late night television of the year outside of Obama. Is Joaquin acting? Is he deep in a part? A known method actor – where one immerses themselves fully in the character – Joaquin may just have the last laugh.

Somewhere between the oh-so-awesome-yet-sort-of-douchey- v-neck t-shirt and the traditional-yet-Grandpaesque crew neck shirt there lies a mid point. A mid point, that until now, did not have a name.

And lo – they called it: the Wide neck Tee.

While the v-neck is enjoying a pretty good run right now, it should be noted that it won’t work for a lot of people. And for other, the simple regular crew neck just doesn’t look right. Now, while the wide neck tee is in no way for everybody, it may just cover the 10% of guys that want a v-neck feel without either looking like an artist from Brooklyn or Hank Hill. Or, like me, you simply have a gigantic head and need a wide neck hole to make your look at least vaguely human.

Pick an artist then choose of of the artists works and ask a group what the artist was feeling while creating the masterpiece. Without a doubt, the majority of the group will have their own unique insight on the artist and his or her work.
