The premise behind this upcoming film isn’t too hard to summarize, but since I haven’t seen the preview more than once, I’ll leave it up to Cinematical.
Superbad’s poster does a good job of summing up what the film is about—two awkward kids who are “superbad,” or more accurately, co-dependent and full of separation anxiety when they get accepted to different colleges. With badass 70’s fonts and a trailer that pipes out Van Halen’s Panama, it’s pretty obvious who this flick is meant for.
It’s pretty obvious that, at 21, I’m not the “who” this movie was intended for. Regardless, the preview looked pretty funny. However, as is the case with most upcoming movies, I didn’t have high hopes. Then I found out the director is responsible for Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy , and The 40 Year Old Virgin. So, I thought “hey, maybe I should keep an eye on this one.”
A neat circular watch! - From Alessi watches. I really like the simplicity here. Old-fashioned as it may be, I still dig timepieces as art and fashion rather than outdated accouterments.
From Here We Go Sublime - On Metacritic, rated the top album of 2007 so far … by a fairly large margin, too.
Plus, “From Here We Go Sublime” by The Field falls under the category “Electronic,” and the guy behind it is known for trance music, no less. I find it interesting that an electronic album with that particular pedigree could top acts like Arcade Fire and Arctic Monkeys.
“Before the time of European colonization, grizzly bears would have kept all the elephant seals in check,” Allen said. “Only harbor seals would have been there. They have the instincts to take off into the water if they see a land animal appear, then come back when that animal’s gone. Elephant seals don’t. They confront what shows up. They are used to inhabiting islands. So it’s an interesting example of what happens when an ecosystem is disrupted. Take grizzlies out of the picture, and elephant seals aren’t scared off of the mainland beaches anymore.”
A list of things I should/need to know for my biochemistry test tomorrow.
“DNA polymerase enzymes are only able to join the phosphate group at the 5’ carbon of a new nucleotide to the hydroxyl (OH) group of the 3’ carbon of a nucleotide already in the chain.” - “DNA Replication”
