FACEBOOK STOCK Traded At Record-Smashing 2.7 Million Shares Per Second
As a poor graduate student majoring in literature (laugh it up, fuzzball), I don’t really understand stock. What I do understand are sexy buzz words like “record breaking”, buzz words that can attract even the fat-skulled such as myself. Them there people are breaking the records? Count me in!

LUKE SKYWALKER by PAUL POPE? I’ll Take It.
I hadn’t come across this riffage of Luke Skywalker by Paul Pope for Star Wars Art: Comics, despite the fact that I’m pretty sure Rendar owns the book. Oh well! Better later than never. God bless The Pope, and that intersection between talented artist and childhood staples.
Apple Pledges To Power Data Center ENTIRELY With Renewable Energy; Futuro Swag.
I can only imagine the amount of power it dates to keep something like Apple’s date center in Maiden, North Carolina. What I imagine are a lot of hamsters, tethered to fuel-tanks by skull-conduits, generating kinect-telepathic energy to feed the Hive Mind. That’s like, a lot of power. The truth isn’t nearly as exciting, though it is sort of neat.
‘BEFORE WATCHMEN’ Is A ‘Love Letter’ To The Original, Dan DiDio Says. Written By Empty, Parasitic Stalkers.
Dan DiDio is taking to The Guardian to defend Before Watchmen, calling it s love letter to Alan Moore’s creation. What DiDio doesn’t mention is that sometimes love letters are epistles scribbled in feces and blood, rambling incoherently. Rambling to such a degree because those penning the shit-blood missive are empty souls, without an ability to define their existence without the object of their love.

Wachowski’s ‘CLOUD ATALAS’ Screened At Cannes, Is Almost Three Hours Long.
I have no clue what the novel Cloud Atlas is about. No damn clue. Everything I know about it has been derived from reading news reports about the Wachowski’s adaptation of it, and all these news bits tell me its a bit of an unwieldy tome. So I’m not surprised that the pig is coming in at nearly three hours. The good news? It may actually deliver.
38 Studios Can’t Make Payroll, Bounces $1.125 Million Check. This Is Me Laughing.
This is me grinning as outspoken anti-Government Waste Curt Schilling descends into everything he once claimed to stand against. Demanding of the state for subsistence, incapable of providing for his own employees, bouncing checks, loving the idea of a safety net.
New ‘BLADE RUNNER’ Officially A Sequel, Original Screenwriter Hampton Fancher On Board.
Here’s some more news on the Blade Runner front, and it is turning up aces. At least for me. The flick is certainly going to be a sequel, and the original screenwriter is back on board. It’s a Blade Runner-heavy news cycle, but in my world only the curmudgeonly bitch about such a wonder.
A VIRUS That Creates ELECTRICITY? Oh, You Scientists, You.
A virus that creates electricity. Just think about that shit in your brain-stem for a moment, augmenting it with this further thought. It’s real. It’s really real. Welcome to the future where the computer you’re watching furry-snuff porn on is powered by virii generating electricity from the thumping of your stroke hand.
