Zakharevich’s program, featured on her website (www.people.harvard.edu/~zakharev), has two parts. The part that a user sees is a display of white boxes, controlled by a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) script, that organizes numbers in a sudoku grid. Another program, written in a computer language called Objective Categorical Abstract Machine Language (OCaml), does the actual number evaluation behind the scenes...
...execs. Sadly, tragedy struck the very next day, as a warehouse fire destroyed almost all of the figurines Park had been developing since the eighties. What this means for the future of Park’s company, Aardman Animations, is unclear. Park has already started work on full-length CGI feature on sewer vermin in London, which he describes as “a kind of ‘African Queen’ with rats.” He says that he’s already discussed a “Chicken Run” sequel with his collaborators...
Close to Home has all the high-quality production hallmarks of the Bruckheimer empire, although it's thankfully less flashy than the CGI-heavy, color-coded CSIs. And Finnigan, who was adorable in NBC's otherwise forgettable sitcom Committed, is the Security Mom of prime-time sleuths, exuding both warmth and steely backbone--a crusader for justice with a fridgeful of breast milk at the office.

CGI, to the limited extent that it’s utilized, blends seamlessly with the handcrafted care of the figures, as in a particularly endearing scene where rabbits are sucked from their holes into a container and are shown floating about like astronauts...
...Corliss, is the best film of each decade since Time began. Metropolis 1927; Fritz Lang Lang's epic poem of urban dystopia and class warfare set the standard for imagining the future - and how it might feel to be a part of it. Even now, in the age of cgi, his dark vision remains unsurpassed. Dodsworth 1936; William Wyler A tycoon goes to europe and eventually sheds glum responsibility (and a ditsy wife) in Loh and Behold Avant-garde murals and imaginative furnishings characterise a new Singapore hotel Identity Parade An iconic style magazine marks its quarter century Summits...
