+ I'm sneaking this one in just under the wire, but apparently today at 3 p.m. EST, director James Cameron is doing a live Q&A about "Avatar." I wish I had more interest in seeing this movie, but it's just not doing it for me yet.
+ Hey, there's going to be a new "Buck Rogers" web series! Below is a preview clip, which, as Topless Robot pointed out, is really pretty but really dull. But it's pretty!
+ Check out this proposed garden residential building that might one day soon be built in Chongqing, China. Designed by MAD Architects, it's called the Urban Forest. It's pretty nifty, although I might be just slightly terrified to live there.
+ And finally, because it's a bit of a slow news day and because I could use some stress relief, let's all take a few moments to appreciate the splendor of the legendary Surprised Kitty.

I love the kitty!
But that garden building looks like a pile of dirty salad dishes, ready to cascade across the city . . .
Talking of Doctor Who - have you seen this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHnSyhDdYYc
One of the BBC's 'station idents' (ie identifying clips) for the Xmas period...
Sarah, I can see that. It's probably best I won't end up living there as I'm already pretty much terrified of dirty dishes just lying in the sink... :)
Michele, I LOVE that ident. I just saw it literally seconds before I saw your comment. It's the first thing to make me feel Christmas-y this year.
It's brilliant - also worryingly, has given me a fic idea. o_O
(I think I'm officially beyond help, now!)
nice video
This is by the same people that do Star Trek Phase II, and while I think their hearts are in the right place, the acting is absolutely awful. AWFUL. It's a pity, because they put a lot of money into it.
My 17yo daughter lead me to "The Park Bench". I'm a 57yo nerdDad and I thoroughly enjoyed the site. Agreed with all the editorial comment especially the article on "Cosmo" from last year, do "CosmoKitties" really exist or are they a fabrication of the cosmetics/fashion industry?
And about that garden salad hi-rise, interesting but a little shaky looking with no external walls to stabilize it in a wind storm. Or does it use a tuned mass damper like the CitiGroup Center in NewYork?
