Two cups of McDonald’s iced coffee (BUY!) sit on the Fox 5 TV news desk, a punch-you-in-the-face product placement (BUY!) to chase down your morning news. They’ve been on the Las Vegas station set for about two weeks, following the lead of a few TV stations across the country, and they’re still looking every bit as frosty and tantalizing (BUY!) as they were the first day you laid your eyes on them. But wait, here’s the best part: They’re not real. Fake coffee on the real news, two plastic cups permanently filled with some kind of bogus drink. The anchors aren’t even supposed to acknowledge them, McDonald’s reps explain. via Las Vegas Sun

Hayao Miyazaki’s “Ponyo on the Cliff”.

It looks like Studio Ghibli is going back to the Totoro/Kiki twee-days which were MUCH more enjoyable than the mature-Howl/Mononoke days.

nostrich:

I was reminded of this word recently (possibly by someone else’s tumblelog, but I don’t recall). It means “a look shared by two people with each wishing that the other will initiate something that both desire but which neither one wants to start” in Yaghan, one of the indigenous languages of Tierre del Fuego. It’s also listed in the Guiness Book of World Records as the “most succinct word”. I often find myself jealous of polysynthetic languages like Yaghan and the Inuit languages that have words with such prosaic definitions.
