Steam Boy Trailer

Steam Boy Trailer 04/23/2004 12:06 PM
Scott sez: "Steam Boy, the long awaited and highly anticipated Anime film from Akira creator Katsuhiro Otomo is finally nearing completion and is slated for release later this year. The trailer is up on the Japanese site and looks damn cool. From what I can see Otomo has once again created dazzling visuals -- the lush Victorian interiors and the elegance of the mechanical designs (Steam Punk, anyone?) should leave everyone in awe. The film cost 2.4 billion Yen (US$20.2m) to produce, just a few dollars short of the 2.4 billion Yen that it cost to produce Spirited Away, the most expensive Anime feature ever. In contrast, Steam Boy comprises 180 000 cels, 1.5 times as many as Spirited Away." Link

Delay in LWAPP Movement

Delay in LWAPP Movement 03/06/2004 01:49 AM
It appears that there will be a delay in creating a standard for thin APs to communicate with switches: An effort that became known as lightweight access point protocol was started mainly by WLAN switch vendors who hoped to come up with a standard communication method for thin APs. Such a standard would eliminate the requirement for enterprises to only buy APs from the same vendor they buy their WLAN switches from. But the LWAPP standard proposal has expired. In its place is a new effort known as CAPWAP, or the control and provisioning of wireless access points. Eventually, the idea is that a standard like the one the LWAPP group had hoped to create will be worked on within CAPWAP. In the meantime, CAPWAP's goal is to work on defining the architecture of WLANs. I'm surprised that LWAPP ran out of steam and I think it's unfortunate for the WLAN switch makers. One of the biggest complaints that I've heard of from enterprises that want to deploy WLAN switches is that they have to buy access points from just one specific vendor....

Dean's MoveOn-ish Movement 12/02/2003 09:57 AM
The Boston Globe today has an article (the link will break tomorrow) about the Dean campaign's plan to ask its supporters MoveOn-ishly to raise money to support Democratic Congresspeople running in tightly contested elections. There are three obvious motivations for this: To take back Congress, to do favors for some Congresspeople who can return the favor, and to rebuild the Democratic base. That last one is the kicker. This campaign from the beginning has felt more like a movement than like a campaign (to paraphrase Natasha C). Given the zealotry of the supporters, it's even more surprising that the...

Sharp Healsio Steam Oven

Sharp Healsio Steam Oven 03/28/2005 07:50 AM

Sharp's Healsio oven puts a spin on the traditional convention or microwave oven, using the power of steam heated to about 570 degrees to cook your food. The steam apparently reduces the total fat content by effectively melting it while still preserving the food's nutrients. Sharp even demonstrated toasting bread, proving that not everything comes out as glue. The oven allows the user to steam, grill, roast, bake, (broast, brible), defrost and reheat their food by spraying the steam directly onto the food. Sharp's press release goes into excruciating detail on how their new $1,100 oven works and the health benefits it offers. Launched in Singapore, it will reach North America later this year.
