...Maybe Anderson could make a film, at least a short, about each of these characters. It'd be fine by me if his collaborator on the screenplays was Owen Wilson. It could be therapeutic...
...There's no fine tradition of rugby league films. This Sporting Life, the 1963 English production starring Richard Harris, is regarded as the only really good one. Now it has company. The Final Winter, made on a shoestring by a bunch of novices, including co-directors Jane Forrest and Brian Andrews, is a gem, a triumph for adherence to two axioms of football: keep it simple and get the little things right. Its backdrop is league in early-1980s Sydney, but after a burst of action in the first 10 minutes, it shines as a drama exploring the limits...
...went to China to forge links with educational institutions. While they were there, they fell into a discussion with Shanghai University Professor Wang Dawei about glass art - one of the key subjects offered at Wolverhampton. It quickly emerged that the subject was not taught at all in China's fine-art institutions, even though the country produced a staggering 80% of the world's processed glass. Wang resolved to do something about it, and in 2000 Shanghai University's glass studio was launched. It was headed by Zhuang Xiaowei, who had just returned from a two-year M.A. at Wolverhampton...
...floorboards not only makes the aircraft lighter--and reduces fuel consumption--but also provides the opportunity to change systems integration, rework maintenance programs, overhaul cabin interiors and upgrade aerodynamic performance. Boeing is working with the world's largest producer of carbon fiber, Tokyo-based Toray Industries, which is still fine-tuning its mass production (this is the first large-scale work Toray has done) and tooling. But with the use of more carbon-fiber composites in aircraft--the A350 will also be 50%--Boeing is on top of the trend...
...stuff of functioning adulthood, but all of it is huge for a person who was never supposed to manage anything like it again. And all of it is a result of the growing therapeutic science of deep-brain stimulation (DBS). Doctors at the Cleveland Clinic inserted a pair of fine wires into the mugging victim's brain last year, threading them down to the thalamus, a deep, intact structure that could, in theory, jump- start the surviving circuits in the damaged cerebral cortex above. Very low current was sent through the wires, stimulating the thalamus, which indeed awakened the higher...
