...outdoor lights. Bloom! is a 23-in.-high recycled plastic pot with four LED lights inside. Not only does it provide a soft glow to any outdoor environment, but it also holds plants and is energy efficient (drawing a maximum of just 6 watts). Fill it with ice and chill cold drinks or cover the top with plate glass and create a table. The only thing these versatile lights don't do is scare away mosquitoes. You can find the pots at bloomusa.net...
...Massachusetts General Hospital’s Center for Regenerative Medicine and Technology and co-director of the institute. “Partly what has driven the U.S. research machine is U.S. government funding.

With a movie called Be Cool, the cast had better, well, be cool. In next year's sequel to the 1995 Mob flick Get Shorty, chill rapper ANDRE 3000 (real identity: Andre Benjamin) and Bill killer UMA THURMAN (real identity: foxy movie-star mama) supply the requisite edge. Andre, the sex-symbol half of the Grammy-winning hip-hop duo OutKast, plays Dabu "a trigger-happy parody of all rappers," he says. "He's a dude from the street, and he's kind of crazy. He'll be in a normal conversation just itching to shoot somebody." Thurman's Edie...
