...Legolas in The Lord of the Rings has turned him into a teen heartthrob and a sure-fire box-office draw. And in the next nine months, audiences will get to see the latest results of his relentless workload. First up is the well-reviewed Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, which opens across Europe this month. Then comes the Aussie outlaw-gang flick Ned Kelly at the end of September, followed by The Calcium Kid, a spoofy comedy with Bloom in his first starring role, and one last elfin turn in The Lord...
Translation: Because natural-gas prices are going up--and are going to stay up--it's now time to bring in more expensive LNG from the Caribbean, the Middle East, Africa and possibly Russia. To import natural gas, it must be chilled to minus 260°F, which converts it to a liquid and reduces its volume. An amount that would normally fill a beach ball can fit inside a Ping-Pong ball. When the liquid arrives at terminals in the U.S., it is slowly warmed up, returned to a vapor form and sent through pipelines...

This little scene, reminiscent of a visual gag in a Buster Keaton silent comedy, comes at the start of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, cuing audiences to the suspense, grace and fun of the next two hours...
...flummoxed smile on the faces of Depp's admirers. This is, after all, a film based on a Disney theme-park attraction--not a cool thrill machine like the Tower of Terror or a camp classic like Mr. Toad's Wild Ride but the staid Pirates of the Caribbean. For this project, Depp put aside the nutsy-greatsy auteurs of his past (Tim Burton, John Waters, Terry Gilliam, Jim Jarmusch) to team up with Gore Verbinski, a director whose prime artistic achievement is the masterminding of the Budweiser frog commercials...
