With 1,000 breweries mapped over 7 square feet, your summer road trip just planned itself.

Get The Breweries of the United States for 20% off now through 5/30 at noon EDT.

This is awesome. However, it looks like northern Ohio’s Thirsty Dog is on there twice - I bet the second one was supposed to be Great Lakes Brewery (which is conspicuously missing).

How To Make Vietnamese Coffee (by High Beam Media)

I love everything about this video and I need to recreate this at home. I also need more of that music in my life. I HAVE SO MANY NEEDS.

Love the coffee. Love the music, too. “Ding Ding Dong” by Waipod Phetsuphan appears on Soundway Records Presents The Sound Of Siam : Leftfield Luk Thung, Jazz And Molam From Thailand 1964 - 1975. (Amazon, iTunes).

America’s Most Innovative Neighborhood: 15 Square Miles In New Mexico, Population: 0

This summer, Pegasus Global Holdings will begin building a city from scratch in the desert just outside of Hobbs, New Mexico, that will look not unlike Hobbs itself. The Center for Innovation, Testing and Evaluation will be modeled on a mid-sized, mid-American town of about 35,000 people. Hobbs, located just outside the Texas border in the Southeastern corner of the state, is just a bit larger than that. The new city—CITE, as the locals and out-of-town developers call it—will similarly have a kind of downtown, a retail district, residential neighborhoods, and collar communities. It will have functioning roads, self-sustaining utilities, and its own communications infrastructure. It will not, however, have a single permanent resident.

After years of pursuing high-tech companies, Hobbs will be getting what might be one of the most impressive high-tech novelties around: a 15-square mile, fully functioning but empty town next door, unlike any other R&D facility in the world, that will be used to test everything about the future of smart cities, from autonomous cars to new wireless networks.

scout:

Happy birthday, Bob.

I’ve always wanted to throw a Bob Dylan Birthday Party, complete with name tags that would list your favorite Dylan song. It would have a rocking’ party playlist at least. Maybe next year.

Matthew Weiner, Vince Gilligan, and David Milch Interview - GQ June 2012: Movies + TV: GQ:

The recent debacle with Dan Harmon being ousted from “Community” has reignited my interest in genius TV showrunners, and the spotlighted (spotlit?) fact that in today’s Internet age, these people (Harmon, Joss Whedon, Damon Lindeloff/Carlton Cuse, etc etc) are stars unto themselves.

Side note that should go without saying: I agree when I hear talk about the second golden age of television. I think television as an art form has come a long way - but is still underrated. The best shows of all time can stand up against the best films of all time.

They are dragging Community to 100 episodes, making it eligible for syndication deals. After that, it’s dead. -Shane

Neil Young - ‘Dead Man (Closing Theme)’

Also one of the best film soundtracks ever.

Years ago, when I first saw this movie and paid attention to the theme, I thought it was too atonal, meandering and almost comically bad. I’ve since come full circle. The music didn’t get better, it just took me a long time to catch up with what Neil Young was doing. Super great.
