Online movies versus theater movies, are we cheating the film industry?
2009-11-22 23:51:00 Was the film really worth $9.50 For my birthday I got an AMC gift card for $10, so I went to Orland Square Mall to see "2012." Had I not received that gift card, I'd have gone to The New 400 Theater because instead of paying $9.50 for any movie after 3:30 p.m., I'd have paid $7.50 after 6 p.m. or $5 before 6 p.m. The Suntimes' Kara Spak recently wrote an interesting column called "Online movie free-for-all," and I agree with most of the comments. There are some movies that flat out are not worth paying $9.50 for. Was "2012" worth paying $9.50 for? Absolutely. Was "Paranormal Activity," a film I saw on my birthday? No. I liked...

Tobacco industry manipulated cigarette menthol content
2009-09-21 04:46:00 Menthol cigarette brands have been rising in popularity with adolescents, and the highest use has been among younger, newer smokers. Scientists at Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) explored tobacco industry manipulation of menthol levels in specific brands and found a deliberate strategy to recruit and addict young smokers by adjusting menthol to create a milder experience for the first time smoker. Menthol masks the harshness and irritation of cigarettes, allowing delivery of an effective dose of nicotine, the addictive chemical in cigarettes. These milder products were then marketed to the youngest potential consumers........

Did I mention that the publishing industry is retarded?
2009-07-15 23:19:00 Well, it is. I'm not going to go into details, because it will just sound like sour grapes, but seriously, it's retarded.So here's what I'm going to do: I'm going to self-publish Mercury Falls. That's right, you don't have to wait for two years for it to slowly grind its way through the gears the publishing industry. Most likely, you can have it in your hands (or on your Kindle) by Christmas. But there is one catch: to have a chance to create a successful grassroots campaign for the book, I need to have a good-size initial fan base. So here's the deal: I'm going to publish the book as soon as I've got 500 people signed up for the Mercury Falls interest list. It's not an unrealistic goal; at this writing, there are 337 people on the list. If each regular reader of this blog convinced one friend to sign up, we'd be at 500 in no time. So tell your friends, family, coworkers, students, household servants -- anyone that either e...
