...filmed in the old "Spruce Goose" hangar, the 16,000-sq.-ft. space where Howard Hughes built his wooden airplane. The film is set in the future, and most of the action takes place on a mythical planet, Pandora. The actors work in an empty studio; Pandora's lush jungle-aquatic environment is computer-generated in New Zealand by Jackson's special-effects company, Weta Digital, and added later...
Motherhood, by the way, looks good on her. Onscreen, she's lush and full: any woman who has breast-fed will recognize the source of her Duplicity cleavage. Her Claire makes Owen's Ray even more swoon-worthy; we know he appreciates a real woman. If you're nostalgic for the pretty woman in pink-and-black spandex, too bad. Roberts isn't shoehorning herself back into a prostitute's work outfit. She's too sensible to even try. All the more reason to hope she's still a trendsetter...
Rooming: Sophomore rooming is a double-edged sword. You’re damned if you do Dewolfe, but damned if you don’t.

Adams ’10.But as a whole, HRO seemed stiffer than usual. Assistant conductor Hanjay Wang ’11, in his HRO debut, balanced the sound and skillfully led the orchestra through the several tempo changes, but an emphasis on control detracted from...
...rest of the year, the Anantara and the Four Seasons, which are nestled in the lush forests near Thailand's border with Burma and Laos, collaborate on the Golden Triangle Asian Elephant Foundation. The sanctuary and hotel properties are home to around 30 elephants, all of which might otherwise be languishing as street beggars. Often, soliciting snacks from urbanites and tourists is the only way an owner can cover the cost of feeding an animal that in the wild eats up to 550 lb. (250 kg), or around 5% of its body weight, each day. (Foreigners may thrill...
