I am told "Transformers: Dark Side Of The Moon" is a good film. I enjoyed the first movie well enough, even if it was noisy in all of the wrong ways. The sequel hurt both my eyes and my sensibilities but at least the pain in my eyes had an easy explanation: Michael Bay, or perhaps his cinematographer, read some science and discovered that flesh tones, which exist in the orange range, have a complement on the color scale in teal. Two complementary colors next to each other give an image 'pop' visually, shows neuroscience and therefore color theory. So if you want to highlight something, orange and teal around it will work.
Science 2.0 favorite Lawrence Krauss of ASU
tackled the James Webb Space Telescope issue on the Richard Dawkins website and a commenter there linked
to my rationalization that canceling it might be okay, with the hasty disclaimer that
he does not agree with what I write - the Dawkins site moderators, and perhaps Dawkins himself, have made their distaste for anyone outside the echo chamber well known so perhaps his rapid disavowal was necessary, though it seems odd Krauss would have the same conce
I have always liked dolphins but I can't pinpoint why - maybe it was "Flipper" when I was a kid, it can't be "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home" because a whale was saving the Earth in that one.

Thomas Edison did a lot right but there is one thing he got very, very wrong.
Namely, a talking doll that was sure to be an inspiration for generations of future horror movie fans. It was a bold idea, of course, Edison had a lot of those, but sometimes even a marketing juggernaut can't make something work for the public given technological limitations - we are also talking to you, 3-D movie makers.
But...but...you have to love journalists, according to journalists. Only we hold government accountable and gotcha videos and bloggers rehashing what we come up with or they see in press releases can't be the same thing, they insist.
Well, it can, actually. Journalists stopped being trusted guides long ago and the public caught on. Journalists can complain about how much more vitriolic the discourse has gotten, but that's really only because the Internet has made it possible for both sides to get coverage.
Most scientists and science journalists argue vehemently for basic research - and even more taxpayer money should be devoted to it, they say. Politicians usually disagree and feel like taxpayer-funded research should have a goal or at least a defined result in its framework.
