...latest sure-fire box office behemoth. The SNL alum indeed performs the 83-minute-long film with an annoying, muffled speech impediment. And yes, recently Sandler's movies have become increasingly obnoxious and mainstream. Top it all off with a dull tag line-If Your Mom was an Angel and Your Father was the Devil You'd Be Messed Up Too-and you have yourself a motion picture with quite a bit going against it. That said, I immensely enjoyed Little Nicky, a heartwarming story about the devil (Harvey Keitel, a bit out of place in this classless romp...
...early '80s, though, telescope designers were leaping all over the place. University of Arizona astronomer Roger Angel's solution to the sagging-glass problem was to cast huge mirrors that are mostly hollow, with a honeycomb-like structure inside to guarantee stiffness. University of California at Santa Cruz astronomer Jerry Nelson opted instead to create a mirror not from a single huge slab of glass but from 36 smaller sheets that would, under a computer's control, act as one.

...Williams. It seems strange that the man who has sold over 5 million albums around the world should be relatively unknown here. Even The Ego Has Landed, his critically acclaimed 1999 release, failed to appeal to the U.S. in a megastar way, although with the help of singles like "Angel" it did manage to sell enough here to achieve gold status. But all that could change with the release of his new record, Sing When You're Winning...
