...have liked Po to make greater use of his noodle-shop skills in the climactic fight. And although Black's loud, friendly, shambling screen personality makes a smooth transference to panda form, I wish Po were more persuasively drawn; visually, he's the least interesting character. But the menagerie that surrounds him is a gorgeous one.

Soon robotic carts will transport supplies and sanitary waste from the buildings on its main campus...
...Most colleges in the U.S. provide some form of alumni registry. Whether colleges are trying to provide a community for generations of graduates or simply out to increase donations, alumni networks are integral to universities. Therefore, it seems puzzling that high schools, specifically underprivileged high schools, have not been able to capitalize on these networking opportunities between students and alumni when it seems like they could benefit immensely. Creating an alumni registry is probably not a top priority of a school in dire need of major restructuring, but maybe it should...
