#dontwatchdave

for a future scary movie night methinks. read richard lawson's rundown of the upcoming fall/winter movie season.

remember session 9?

this guy tried to save the danvers state hospital (featured prominently in that creepy movie) from being demolished. when his efforts failed, he bought the creepy turret and put it on his house. also, "the rumor that he also managed to salvage a lobotomy machine is false, he says, as lobotomies were done with needles, but yes, he does have some of those."

he's coming for you!

don't watch, dave

terror alert

some science folks think this summer will bring new york city a plague of mosquitos. go ahead and read this if you'd like to be terrified to leave your house for 3 months (or maybe ever).

They are coming. There is no doubt that they are coming. What we don’t know is when they will come and how many there will be.

The last outstanding question is: Are we prepared? From a public-health standpoint, that is, and from the standpoint of dealing with seriously annoying things. Because mosquitoes are both a major health hazard and about the most irritating creatures known to man. Even ticks are easier to get along with, which is saying a lot, given that they are bloodsuckers, too.

Biologists call mosquitoes commensals, from the Latin indicating that we share the same table. The table is our lives, in the summer. The meal is our blood.

Most winters thin the mosquito population. When weather is warmer, mosquitoes tend to thrive. This winter, as is well known, there was no winter. (via)
