...Comic-Con convention, and from Warner Bros.' posting of 300 stills from the movie on MySpace. The $70 million opening means that we will see another spate of stories on the power of the Web to launch movies - stories we've been reading since 1999, when The Blair Witch Project became a surprise smash, but whose predictions of seismic changes in movie marketing have been realized only fitfully...
...five other natural food producers, including industry leader Whole Foods, announced last week that they would seek a new certification for their products, "non-GMO verified," in the hopes that it will become a voluntary industry standard for GM-free goods. A non-profit group called the Non-GMO Project runs the program, and the testing is conducted by an outside lab called Genetic ID.

...Fortunately, all indications are that the Administration has finally gotten the message. The major ethanol investment project that Bush will promote in Brazil with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva at least captures the spirit of what Latin Americans say they've been wanting from Washington for so long. That is, it's less about the abstractions of free trade - the fruits of which too rarely trickle down in Latin America's corrupt societies - and more about targeting specific development engines that may well create decent-paying jobs. The gesture may be too little too late to repair Bush...
