...about fucking dinosaurs. Where do I sign up, right? But while you’re filling out little handouts with names of T-Rex and stegosaurus body parts, information is flowing, and straight-up memorization forms the backbone of the class. At midterm and final time, every word from Marshall??s mouth is up for grabs—students were grilled about total minutiae from lecture, and TFs were picky with what answers were awarded full credit. Basically, though, if you crack open the damn book, do your reading, and actually study for this one come test time...
...surrealistic feminist document begins with a pseudo-parody of the modern hip-hop video, as a baggily clothed black man bounces his hand next to Cat Power’s Chan Marshall and points at his car’s rims.

The tip of the filter is hydrophobic, so it filters benzopyrene far more effectively than a standard filter, he says as he shows data from his preliminary tests on the device.None of Marshall??s inventions has been produced commercially, although he says he believes that tobacco companies have found out about ROMAR and are waiting for his patent to expire before they begin using the design.Marshall’s inventions straddle several fields. He says this diversity reflects the breadth...
...flying through the air and amazing kung-fu were not enough, Ziyi Zhang (“House of Flying Daggers”) has now added fan dancing and pouring tea to her list of accomplishments—both of which she performs gracefully in Rob Marshall??s (“Chicago”) production of “Memoirs of a Geisha.” “Memoirs of a Geisha” boasts an acting team of international superstars like Zhang, Michelle Yeoh (“Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”), and Gong...
