Midday update

silveradeptSince I’ll be off to lands of the unknown, where the ‘Net does not have hold, you get a quick update before I go.
Galactus is Coming! It makes a more convining case, than, say, Kneel Before Zod.
Guantanamo heart patient cannot go to a civillian hospital. So get your treatment on base or not at all. Perhaps they’re worried about him talking to someone about what goes on? Or will he manage to shoot himself while in custody, like this person, who shot himself with a gun while handcuffed in a police cruiser, managed to. I’m really wondering whether “shot himself” is an excuse in this case for something else.
If you want to see some degree of what happens between the time a beauty model walks in the door and the image you see on the billboard, have a look at Evolution (available through The Hard Sell). It was part of the Dove campaign about “natural beauty”, and it demonstrates, in time-lapse, all the work that goes into making a pretty face. Including, as you’ll see in the post-production, distortion of the real features of the model.
Something that may please![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
greenhornline more than anyone else - The Cat Came Back, the very next day. They thought he was a goner, but the cat came back...
’Tis the season... to do stupid things. A gent in Lousiana died in a car crash after stealing some Christmas lights.
We might be eventually seeing the days where a significant amount of our lights are actually going to be LEDs, thanks to an efficiency jump in white organic LEDs.
Ad-space sold on laptop = free laptop. Good ingenuity to make that work out, and ads aren’t in some place where they’ll necessarily be annoying or have to be looked at. Makes some of us wish that we’d thought of it first.
Fortaniwhanui; Alliteration of things I like, letter Y, ten things. (This took some thinking)
Yakisoba (Yummy!)
Yogurt (with fruit in it)
Yarn (to play with it, of course)
Yoko Shimomura, for her excellent work on Kingdom Hearts
Yoko Kanno - for her many contributions to lots of good anime soundtracks.
Young Frankenstein (That’s Frank-en-schteen!)
The Yokohama Giants (but only because Chiyo-chan does)
Yukari-sensei, but not for her measurements
“You’re welcome”
Yule, admittedly because of the prezzies associated with some other VEWPRF as much as the rebirth of the Sun.
Last remarks - here’s a couple flickr groups for the grammarians - Quotation Mark Abuse for “unnecessary” marks, and Grocer's Apostrophe, for when thing’s are not allowed, or something.
