[/Sven] Wow! Check this out: Star Wars Revelations
Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.
[FsFalcon's Crest] Woof: And while we're talking about Star Wars: I spent last Saturday afternoon watching the two disc edition of Star Wars: Revelations, and if you haven't seen it yet, you really ought to check it out. If you're not familiar with Revelations, it's a Star Wars fan film put together by some very dedicated folks over the course of a few years for a grand total of $20K. That being said, some of the stuff they pull off is decidedly non-amateurish, particularly the space battles and other special effects. If you head over to the official website, you'll find a windows media version of the movie for download, but I would strongly encourage you to get two torrent files containing the full two-DVD experience.
[ The Sleepy Sage] The "Revelations" you should be watching: This last week or so, when not deranged with stress over tax law, I've had the chance to sit at my kitchen table and just watch suburbia drift by my window. I start to have strange worries. Like, do our neighbors harbor smoldering resentment over the fact that our lawn is overrun with weeds that have mounted a highly successful invasion campaign abroad? Do they sip their coffees each morning, staring daggers at our estate and hoping their cats appropriate our lawn as a litter box (which they have)?
josh blog: My CD changer is still broken, so this meant playing them just on headphones (which I would've done anyway at that hour) with my portable player (which always makes me feel as if I am camping or something, when I do it inside on my bed). I played "As" a few times and then let it move into "Another Star", then listened to them both again and cut off "Another Star" before it finished and went to bed. I tried to focus intently on at least one thing throughout, though that thing did change as the song went by, of course. Often I tried for the lyrics, because these two songs are especially repetitive for Stevie Wonder songs, and I thought I caught myself drifting away more easily when I focused on a more repetitive part of the music.

Sake Blog: Even though Social Security (to take just one example) is a big-government program, any diversion of dollars into Private Accounts is, effectively, shrinking government. And that creates a trap of the opposite sort, one that will make people want more and more privatization as they start to see their accounts grow. (Or, similarly, more and more choice over which school your kids go to. Or more ability to just choose any medical service you want and pay it yourself without consulting any bureaucracy)
