Michael Pollan shares some of his rules for eating wisely in the New Year.
shit. just noticed this longshot candidate for dodds senate seat was a friend of mine for a couple of years at college.
RIP Kenneth Noland.
"When he was good, he was excellent" - are obits really the place for critics to get in their final digs? (Roberta Smith on Noland)
"Perhaps to his detriment, Mr. Noland was ardently loyal to his formalist principles" (another unelaborated Smith stab)
preliminary obit (presumably full libeling of the deceased to follow)
(edited to be less partisan-seeming--I think it is possible to like Noland without subscribing to any "formalist principles"--in fact I doubt he had them)

I'm sure this is conventional wisdom by now, but from a visual perspective Avatar 3D IMAX in 2010 = Star Wars in 1977.
The top three game changers for me were Star Wars, Terminator 2, and Avatar. I can't comment on King Kong, but I've heard that was a biggie too.

Pain Beam being developed by US military-industrial complex. Much consternation ensues. Imagine the following in the Comic Book Guy's voice:
@nikola: First off, it's not our government, but our private sector. This comes from Raytheon, and despite that they're heavily intertwined with our military, they are not (YET) our military.A machine capable of torturing on a massive scale? Somewhere Dick Cheney is smiling.

These findings suggest a potential vasculoprotective role of vitamin D.
The man with the nickname “Dr Flu”, Professor Albert Osterhaus, of the Erasmus University in Rotterdam Holland has been named by Dutch media researchers as the person at the center of the worldwide Swine Flu H1N1 Influenza A 2009 pandemic hysteria. Not only is Osterhaus the connecting person in an international network that has been described as the Pharma Mafia, he is THE key advisor to WHO on influenza and is intimately positioned to personally profit from the billions of euros in vaccines allegedly aimed at H1N1.
