...scene "substantially intact," in Roger Ebert's tantalizing phrase) is among the titanic Hollywood battles itemized in Kirby Dick's very entertaining documentary This Film Is Not Yet Rated. The movie is a broadside against the MPAA on behalf of indie filmmakers, and is sponsored by the Independent Film Channel. It's a jazzy jeremiad that dances around the whole dilemma of ratings. Should children be kept from seeing adult films? Can a child's movie maturity be determined by his or her chronological age? If there's a ratings system - by any other name, a censorship board - should...
...create an environmental design blog that is everything hip and urban. TreeHugger attracts about half a million visitors a month, mostly students and designers in their 20s and 30s, and posts an average of 16 entries per weekday. Using the latest in blogging technology, including an interactive broadband channel TreeHuggerTV, Hill is making every effort to get his message of "green" living out to the world.

First view the TV from the front, then see how badly the image fades from the side. If all the sets are on the same channel, it's fairly easy to tell which ones have deeper blacks and purer whites...
Despite the news-channel talk of a fresh threat, people have been trying for almost 20 years to blow up planes with liquid explosives packed in carry-on baggage. Terrorists, like movie studios and toddlers, don't like to try new things. In 1987 two North Korean agents posing as father and daughter put a radio packed with plastic explosives and a whisky bottle full of liquid explosives in a bag in the overhead bin of a South Korean airliner. Then they got off on a layover. The subsequent explosion sent the plane spinning into the jungle near the Thailand...
