Jodi and I are big John Cusack fans - I can think of only one movie of his we've seen that we didn't like (1993's superbly casted but poorly written Identity).

Last week I ran into an IE6/7 CSS bug, but in 5 hours of research did not find a solution I liked. In a nutshell, IE incorrectly implements, or incorrectly interprets, the CSS 2.1 float spec:

Apple is going to need to up their security staff, esp. with a"real OS" on the iPhone. Exhibit A: an iPhone browser vulnerability:

>Thus is the pattern for the night established. A couple of new songs, a couple of oldies and shiny happy old me putting in a prize winning performance in the dancing while sitting down world championships. ... Everything else we don't know, though, is pretty much flawless, a raucous, breathtaking hybrid of the best bits from Reckoning and Monster.

Three great things happen today! iPhone, Ratatouille, and my birthday! Yay!

>Read this aloud and your inner ear, by itself, will be carrying out at least the equivalent of a billion floating-point operations per second, about the workload of a typical game console. The inner ear together with the brain can distinguish sounds that have intensities ranging over 120 decibels, from the roar of a jet engine to the rustle of a leaf, and it can pick out one conversation from among dozens in a crowded room. It is a feat no artificial system comes close to matching.
