Miscellanea

First, I am still shocked at Natasha Richardson's death. Brilliant Husband and I just finished Blow Dry two nights ago (we'd started watching on a previous night). I was going to post a brief review; I thought it was very funny and well worth watching. I think that will have to do as a review for now. Here's the New York Times article about her death. That story has links on the side to a couple of items about head injuries and how they can seem really minor but still kill; CNN also has this.

I'm saddened for Natasha Richardson and her whole family.

I do hope people can learn from this accident, get something out of it, so it isn't simply a terrible waste. It happened so fast I don't know if going straight to the doctor would have saved her, but maybe some other people will be saved now that a lot more of us know that what seems to be a slight injury can be deadly.

A couple of more cheerful things: from bigtitch at primeval_denial: an article with a nice video clip about the Walking with Dinosaurs arena show.
