...make Lifehacker not only about technology. The whole point of the site is that technology is so interwoven into our lives and exists not for the sake of worshiping shiny, cold machines, but for the sake of helping us. We're humans and I think that the human aspect of software and interfaces is very important. That aspect is the emphasis at Lifehacker as opposed to other gadget-focused or software-focused sites. Those are my favorite types of posts and make the most sense to my mother...
...What do you want people to walk away with? I hope that they can say, "Hey, I care about the environment and I can still do a lot and keep my lifestyle." The other thing I am trying to do - back to the laziness aspect - convenience is the real killer. If you want anything to happen, you have to make it easy. I'm hoping the takeaway on the site is this positive "Wow, I've seen this green that is here now and I can change my life in a green direction, whether it's transportation, fashion, housing...
...Japanese bombed the American fleet and triggered World War II. Ross' valor, commemorated on homeofheroes.com, is the stuff of movie legend. (He did survive, regain his sight and marry his girlfriend.) But Hollywood didn't rush to make a stirring drama from his story, or from any aspect of that awful day in Hawaii (though the following year John Ford did direct a documentary, December 7th, that got limited release in theaters). Dec. 7, 1941, was a day that would live in infamy, but not very much on film. Instead, over the 3-1/2-year span of the rest...
...reduced incomes is allowed to intrude on this fantasy. The seniors are all played by minor, aging actors of the semi-recent past (Dyan Cannon, Sally Kellerman, Brenda Vaccaro among them) and before anything like a plot gets rolling, the film has about it a not entirely attractive voyeuristic aspect. We don't really want to see the dreamboats of the past hull-down in the realties of aging. We know it must come to them - no matter how clever the cosmetic surgeons have been (or how bravely some of the actors have resisted their ministrations) - but our memories...
...newspaper Ma'ariv. That's significant praise, given the concerns within Israel that greeted the cabinet formed by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. Olmert is clearly the man on the spot in the current outbreak of hostilities with Hizballah and the ongoing operations in Gaza. But perhaps the most surprising aspect of the current crisis is that a one-time member of Peace Now, a champion of social welfare issues and a negotiated two-state solution, is the man sending fighter jets over Beirut. Defense Minister Amir Peretz, once known mainly for championing issues like raising Isreel's minimum wage...
