Lefthandedness Being left-handed is like being in a secret club. We have our own bizarre initialization rituals, such as learning how to write "the wrong way." We pay our dues every day, in terms of the extra effort that we must make to live in a right-handed world. When we encounter another lefty, we immediately have something in common. The club is shrouded in secrecy, because we rarely mention the topic to our right-handed friends. For fun, I started making a list of the aspects of everyday life that are geared towards right-handed people. We have to use special "lefty" scissors. Back to Lucas' writings.
Totally Fresh Tomato Lasagna | Sortachef West of Sienna, sunflowers paint the softly rolling hills as far as the eye can see. The road dips and sways through the Tuscan landscape, with shoulder high banks that rise to either side. Swallows glide on late afternoon thermals in the clear blue sky. At an opening to one field a man holds up cars to let out a tractor pulling some leviathan farm implement. As traffic slows to a crawl behind it, I roll down the windows to let in the hot herb-infused air and crank up the tunes on the local radio station. Sunflowers west of Sienna Bambino Nel Tempo was the favorite Italian song that summer, played every hour without fail. At the Coop in Sovicille, I popped in my coin to release a shopping cart. Back at our little rented villa, the kids splashed in the pool while I unpacked my goodies: fresh local cheese, fresh pasta, and eggs so fresh they might have been squeezed from a chicken only that morning. I gave one last Italian gesture, only a little deflated, and headed back to the kitchen. 1.
This is awesome News, Videos, Reviews and Gossip - io9 The Good: AMAZING effects and character design! The battle droids actually *looked* like devices built for live combat situations—heavily-armoured, heavily-ARMED, and just...heavy! The Bad: 1) WHEN will people finally drop the completely stupid "careful withdrawal of consciousness from virtual environment" trope? 2) If a battle bot has some way of overloading its batteries or onboard generator to generate an EMP, IT WILL FRY ITSELF IN THE PROCESS. I know, I know, I'm a nitpicking geek...but, really, what's the excuse for complete scientific illiteracy in so-called "sci-fi" film-making?

Animated Films for Grown-Ups by Matthew Baldwin As a child I had a Mickey Mouse alarm clock. As an adolescent I graduated to a Mickey Mouse wristwatch. In high school I wore a black satin jacket with Walt’s signature rodent on the back. I guess you could say I was a fan. But not of Mickey Mouse, per se. I was a fan more of the entire medium of animation, of which Mickey was the most recognizable symbol. My interest might have petered out as I moved on to college, but 1989 marked the beginning of the so-called Disney Renaissance. But by 1995 my enthusiasm was on the wane. It’s too bad, because I picked exactly the wrong moment to drop out of the scene. Half a decade later I walked into a theater, for reasons I cannot recall, to see Princess Mononoke. The subtext of Princess Mononoke is one of environmental protectionism—the same theme that Pocahantas wore on its sleeve. But I’m back now, and that’s what’s important.
