In the comics, Venom is composed of an alien symbiotic suit and the person, Eddie Brock. The Venom persona does look very muscular, but I think the alien symbiote would have a great part in giving Venom his menacing form.
My theory is that in the movie, Topher Grace will get "beefed-up" by the alien symbiotic suit.
Most of the selected titles can be considered 3rd-tier heroes. Only the Captain America and Doctor Strange movies have a chance of making a good box-office run.
While taking relatively unknown heroes does not have the big risk of alienating hard-core fans, I seriously doubt whether Nick Fury or Ant-man can even make a ripple on the casual moviegoers' minds.
I agree with you. Non-compete agreements are really lame. An example: The web industry isn't really the biggest of fields of expertise but I've encountered an Non-compete agreement that really would make you change careers after the job to avoid potential litigation.
Creativity can't be shoehorned between the hours of nine and five. The Muses don't always show up on time for appointments.
I can't agree with this more. In my job where I actually use both sides of my brain, creativity just doesn't have a schedule. The best thing I could do is set myself up for a "creative spark" -- surfing the web for things I like, or look at what the latest, although surfing can only do so much.
In my opinion, novels and movies are the ones that should really, really put an effort to have a good security on its initial release. Why? Unlike songs and non-fiction books, once the story is leaked or spoiled, the interest just dies down. I wouldn't blame Scholastic for being paranoid to protect their business.
I'm impressed that Nvu has good support for CSS & XHTML, but I hope that the developers will be able to integrate better creation in the WYSIWYG editor (like using div's instead of tables or creating div's on the fly from the toolbar).
Anything surprising about the 'male' reaction? Guys, for our part, always try the 'knight in shining armor' schtick when a 'girl' is on board. I don't know exactly why but it seems to be the thing.
For every drop-out success like Steve Jobs, there are probably thousands that would miserably fail.
Although schooling is not a pre-requisite of success and rising above everyone else, in my opinion, an education is nice to have when you're slowly sinking below.
Computer Science programs could save money by using Java instead of promoting Microsoft. How? Aside from the obvious licensing differences to software, there are are several projects out there that try to help schools and students by giving them free means for their betterment.
I was thinking of buying a PDA (for scheduling purposes) when I stumbled upon Portable Sunbird. I experimented with using it for a couple of weeks thinking maybe it could save me some money.
The first week was a semi-disaster-- I kinda wasn't at ease with the interface and Sunbird's task list leaves a lot to be desired. But after that week, using it became smoother.
I would recommend Portable Sunbird to people who are comfortable taking notes on paper, then use the PC to sort everything out (like me!:D)
I've recently been applying a methodology which has been getting popular lately: totally separating content & markup from presentation. What this implies is that you structure the content & information architecture BEFORE doing the aesthetics & visuals.
In my opinion, this approach presents a maturing of the the web development process. As a designer/developer, you are more focused on having a solid plan and laying the groundwork as opposed to making placeholders for content. This would a huge amount of time since it lessens the "figuring out" phase in deciding how to layout the site.
I've heard somewhere that there's a branch of art that that deals with randomness. I'm not sure what movement that is that but if anybody knows I'd be happy for some links.
Also, that movement sort of inspired me to write a color generator program. It was borne from the idea that inspiration comes from anywhere, even random stuff.
In my opinion, DRM should create more value to the paying customers. If it soley exists to assure labels of earnings, it won't stop people from going the path of least resistance.

Seriously, I haven't seen the new template but I hope the CSS will stick to basic stuff.
PayPal can expand their services to more countries...
I can see it now: A few month from now, Slashdotters will rant on a post about how Adobe mangles the Macromedia brand.

Anybody here knows which sites were brought down?

C'mon! As somebody who uses software, there's nothing like that nice, good'old feeling when you find some pretty nifty free software.

Is there a SPARC port available on the new release?
make sure to watch the 60MB video at the bottom
What video? I can't even access the webpage.

is Portable Sunbird!

Thanks for pointing it out. :)
As for the actual content/copy of the site, that's where the designer's job ends and the copywriter/editor's job begins.

As a web professional, I wish to see the day that IE5 would just go away. It's failure to be web standards is already the stuff legends are made of.

only goes to show that nobody goes down alone.
Putting us in their palm is more like it.
