New Typeface to Help Dyslexics
Topic: Arts 3:01 pm EDT, Oct 21, 2003

" Dyslexics who have trouble reading words online and in print may soon find relief in a new typeface being developed by a Dutch designer.

Unlike traditional typefaces, which reuse the same forms for multiple letters -- such as b and d, or p and q -- the Read Regular typeface makes each letter significantly unique so that dyslexics can more easily distinguish one character from another. Additionally, Read Regular features simplified forms and extended openings in letters like c and e. "

Are you a philistine?
Topic: Arts 10:32 am EDT, Oct 17, 2003

Can you distinguish true art from fake art?

Take this quiz to find out:

http://www.ee.ucla.edu/~simkin/true_art_or_fake_art.html

You will see a dozen of images.
Some of them are True Masterpieces of Abstract Art, created by Immortal Artists. They carry Profound Meanings, which are, however, beyond the apprehensions of the vulgar. The rest were produced by the author of the quiz using common software (like Microsoft Word). They mean nothing.
You are asked to decide on each of the images. Afterwards the quiz is graded automatically.

"David Lee Roth has cancelled the rest of his US tour after injuring himself performing "a very fast, complicated 15th-century samurai move" during a recent performance.

The former Van Halen frontman, who is known for his athleticism, was performing a gig in Philadelphia when he cracked his face with a long piece of wood."

I hope somebody taped this.

Lord of the Rings Marathon for Release of 'Return of the King'
Topic: Arts 5:58 pm EDT, Aug 22, 2003

Looks like there'll be new extended versions of I and II coming out just before III:

] Running times for the extended editions are 208 minutes
] for "Fellowship of the Ring" and 214 minutes for "The Two
] Towers."

] Starting the week of Dec. 5, the extended DVD cut of
] "Fellowship of the Ring" will be released in some 100 or
] so theaters in the U.S. and in 20 theaters in Canada.
]
] Then, the week of Dec. 12, sequel "Two Towers" will
] unspool, just a month after having preemed on DVD,
] leading up to a worldwide Dec. 16 daylong marathon,
] during which all three films will be shown back-to-back.
] Exhib guidelines call for a 3 p.m. showing of
] "Fellowship" followed by a 7 p.m. screening of "Two
] Towers" and then an 11 p.m. screening of "Return of the
] King," which will carry over into Dec. 17 -- the day of
] its global release.

Three and a half hours of I, followed by three and a half hours of II, followed by "Return of the King". Popcorn-overdose, dude, I'm there! :)
