Poem – Wolf Eyes
Animated skeletons found entering home illegally.
Movie – * Priceless (2016)
Terrible Christian message film given 4/5 stars on Movie Roster, 7/10 on Movie Deputy. Do not trust these reviewing sites. Unbelievable main character whose actions on discovering his human cargo are absurd.
Movie – ***+ Hell or High Water (2016)
Bank robbery movie with a few new twists and good acting by Chris Pine and Jeff Bridges.
Book – The Brothers K (1992)
Book – **** David James Duncan’s novel of the Chance family which explores the interfamily and external relationships of the family members and the seemingly disperate worlds of minor league baseball, religion, and the Vietnam War. Duncan, however, blends them seamlessly with humor and pathos. Excellent book.
Movie – **** Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)
Tour de force by Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant bringing the story of a real tone-deaf diva to the screen.
Movie – ***+ Suicide Squad (2016)
Crowded but fun super-villain story where the solution creates the problem. Robert Aldrich could have taken a lesson though from the 1967 war movie The Dirty Dozen which managed to connect the viewer to every one of the twelve criminals.
Movie – **** Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children (2016)
Entertaining fantasy by Tim Burton. Imaginative visuals and world building. Full on interesting odd ideas, including time loops.
Cracking methane into hydrogen and carbon
Cracking methane into hydrogen and carbon had been done with steam, but mechanisms would get clogged with the sooty carbon byproduct. Now a method of breaking methane over molten tin has been discovered, where the soot floats to the surface for removal. Check the implications for clean energy. http://bit.ly/rma_free_hydrogen
