I have found a bar

Since then, I have stood in a 1950s train carriage, the rain lashing at the windows and lights flashing by while a distressed-looking woman searches for a parcel.

I have found a bar, hidden in some packing crates in a dimly lit room where a con-man/magician pulls coins out of ears, cards out of mouths and Shakespeare quotations out of thin air.

Later, in a room that smells vaguely of leather, I watch uncomfortably while a lonely woman in a stunning red dress dances drunkenly to music from an old-fashioned gramophone.

There are long, dark corridors leading to other rooms, and the invited guests wander through them in a dreamlike state. In one, a clock ticks loudly and everything – the desk, the chair, the books – is covered in metal rivets. In another, marionettes the size of adult humans hang from a high ceiling, creepily reflected in a huge mirror in the floor.I meet a collector who keeps his curiosities on high shelves – some of them, if you look very closely, human. I see a Mongolian prince reclining languorously on a bed while belly dancers stroke passers-by and try to feed them little pieces of crystallised ginger.

Then there are the woods: cold and pine-scented with bark underfoot and a tent in the middle where musicians play, tea is offered and in a secret side room a woman offers to read your palm and marks your hand with tiny spiders.

Coming out, I take a wrong turn and come upon a man in a lounge suit, blocking the way. I move one way, he sways to stop me. I move the other, he sways again. But behind him, I can see a ramp spiralling down into darkness with a colourful vehicle parked at the top. I want to see, so we continue to dance, me laughing out loud at the absurdity of it.

‘Say something interesting!’ he finally whispers, and of course I’m immediately tongue-tied. But eventually he gives in, takes my hand and leads me to the seat of a rickshaw, and I’m pedalled away into a cold, dark basement.

I get out, uncertain what to do, but then a man silently appears behind me, guiding me behind a pillar where a woman straight out of a film noir – red lips, dark glasses, headscarf – barks at me to sit down at a table for two.

She pours two brandies, hands me one, and commands, ‘Drink!’ Then suddenly we’re standing again, she has me pinned against the wall, gloved hand at my throat and her lips brushing my cheek. ‘I think you should go now!’ she hisses, menacingly, into my ear. I think she’s right.A showgirl in skimpy red sequins and feathers leads me back up a staircase and suddenly I’m in a big, beautifully lit dining-room full of fashionistas and A-list celebrities including the artists Marc Quinn, Gillian Wearing and Tracey Emin, Jerry Hall, Peaches Geldof, the singer Paloma Faith, Gwyneth Paltrow and Angelica Huston, all excitedly discussing what they had experienced on their own journeys through the doors.louis vuitton

Sports

The numbers are in on the World Cup, and it appears 40 billion Americans are watching on ESPN, another 40 billion are watching on Univision, and another 120 billion are watching online.Might be a rounding error in those numbers, but it’s clear that the World Cup has accomplished its quadrennial feat of capturing the USA’s attention.

That’s followed every four years by the pundits in a rush to tell us (A) this was a  by a sport that or (B) we’ve hit the tipping point that will help soccer “make it” in this country.Neither A nor B has it quite right.The “A” arguments usually come from pundits in denial about the complexity of the sports world. The most egregious entry this year comes from The arguments are straight out of 1993, save for the random introduction of U.S. league names such as the WUSA (the defunct women’s league) and “the MSL,” which we’ll take to mean Major League Soccer rather than the long-defunct indoor soccer league.(Quick aside: If Americans really needed more goals to get interested in soccer, we’d all be watching the MISL instead of the World Cup. The MISL is still around after several reconstitutions.)The AP has a difficult task in sports, trying to cover a diversifying sports scene in an era that doesn’t lend itself to doubling its staff. Trying to please everyone isn’t easy. Telling people what sports they should not be following can’t be helpful.The “B” argument usually comes not from die-hard soccer fans but from the newly converted. They’re earnest and sincere, but their grasp of history isn’t necessarily much better than the soccer-bashers.Soccer has indeed “made it” in the USA, at least as much as it’s going to make it for the moment. But the tipping point wasn’t a World Cup, David Beckham’s first MLS game or anything so dramatic. It happened in the early 1990s with the arrival of the Internet and the rapid expansion of cable and satellite channels.That’s not as exciting as Landon Donovan’s goal that wiped out 90 minutes of frustration against Algeria. But it’s impossible to overstate how much has changed.Following professional soccer from within the USA in the early 1990s meant tinkering with a shortwave radio to find the BBC or waiting for the next issue of Soccer America to give a bunch of scores. The Internet made it possible for fans to get together and share scores soon after the fact.Today, a soccer fan can watch the game virtually every minute of a weekend, from the early morning Premier League broadcasts on ESPN and Fox Soccer Channel through the other European leagues on GolTV to the night’s Major League Soccer fare. Night owls can even stay up to catch broadcasts from Australia. Online, fans can get real-time information about everything just shy of Tim Howard’s restaurant choice for the evening.Thomas Sabo

All of this has happened without the involvement of American newspapers, wire services or even the big-time sports blogs. Therefore, it’s a bit of a surprise to them that any of it happened.But it did. Within the 300-million-strong United States is a soccer nation of tens of millions. With each World Cup, each U.S. win over a major soccer power and each MLS expansion, that nation grows a bit more.

fashion

As we enter summer of 2010, the website decided to look back at which fashion accessories and trends had truly made their mark in the last 10 years. therefore polled a sample of 1,426 women, posing to them the multi-answer question, ‘which fashion accessory do you consider to be the most essential of the past decade?’ Thomas Sabo

“As we are now entering the new decade, we thought it’d be fun to ask women which fashion accessories they believed had truly left their stamp on the noughties. The past decade saw fashion explode into a mainstream interest for women nationwide, with high street retailers making high end looks achievable for the girl next door.
“I wasn’t surprised that GHDs snatched the number one spot, as they made the sleek, straight celebrity hair attainable for all. What is notable is that some quite recent trends have made the ‘essential’
