Neat Local Blog

Monday, December 14th, 2009

Lauren Webster is behind a great local blog called 2nd Floor Living that offers decorating ideas for the “broke and renting masses”, as she puts it, and is among other things, a great source of neat gift ideas that won’t break the budget. She also did a recent feature of flower arranging, using what’s on hand at Sycamore, and you can see it here.

    • Creating Hades September 8, 2010
      Blade Runner inspired a generation of filmmakers and other visual artists to think differently about what the future might look like. In this short video, Douglas Trumbull, who led the visual effects team on the film, describes the inspiration for, and the making of, the Hades (opening) sequence. From Inspiration to “Reality” It is striking […]
    • Racism and Comic Book Readers September 8, 2010
      Are comic book readers generally racist? Is that why books starring diverse characters "sell less" (citation needed)?This article at Bleeding Cool begs the question. Mark Waid is quoted by CBR at Baltimore Comic Con on the failure of the Boom! comic High Rollers:"The concept was an urban take on organized crime. To Waid’s shock and awe, an ast […]
    • RIP Glenn Shadix ("Otho" from Beetlejuice) September 8, 2010
      Admittedly I know the character actor Glenn Shadix best not just as the snooty interior decorator from Beetlejuice, but from his action figure of said character (because I am nerdy). But Shadix has had a long career in TV and movies, including providing the voice for the mayor in Nightmare Before Christmas.Shadix made news in 2008 when a fire decimated his A […]
    • "Tribes: The Dog Years" A Post-Apocalyptic Treat September 8, 2010

When you're done reading this 200-page original graphic novel, you feel as if you've just watched a movie. Inaki Miranda's art is amazing, and Michael Geszel has spun a tale that is like if Akira and 300 had a love-child.It is also a great examp […]
    • What Was The Best Batman Movie or TV Costume? September 8, 2010
      Hands-down, Batman 1989 beats the current costume. Michael Keaton's chin for the win. Christian Bale's head looks like a football in that cowl; the whole point of the long bat-ears is to balance out the mask. Via Woosk […]
    • Coming home September 8, 2010
      We've been back from vacation since Saturday night, but I'm having trouble getting back into the spirit of my blog. Probably because the vacation was so wonderful. we were at the Gaspe Peninsula, a part of southern Quebec that's about 1,000 miles from here and feels that far away from everywhere else. Canada has many parks, wilderness preserve […]
    • I was a HomeGoods Virgin… September 8, 2010
      Over the labor day weekend I went with my boyfriend to visit his parents in Houston, TX. Aside from all the other fun things we did, I was able to experience a HomeGoods store for the very first time. I had heard about HomeGoods through other bloggers like LittleGreenNotebook, but since the closest one to […]

       While we are on the subject of how movies are supposedly sending women dangerous messages, what about Boston psychologist Sharon Lamb's claim that comic book heroes are currently perverting their sense of masculinity? She tells the Philly Inquirer:"Today's superhero is too much like an action hero who participates in nonstop violence; he […]

      The Denver Post asks if kick-ass movie heroines such as Evelyn Salt send a "dangerous message" to women that they could hold themselves in a physical fight with men:"Should we celebrate, or be suspicious of, these daughters of Diana Rigg's peerless martial artist and fencer Emma Peel, Pam Grier's blaxploitation mama Foxy Brown, and, […]
