...seat is empty, a nonpartisan judicial nominating committee consisting of interested citizens, gubernatorial appointees and attorneys presents three judges' names to the governor, who chooses one. In other words, a governor's appointments are more or less at the mercy of that independent committee. And while its Democratic makeup and what its reputation for what conservatives call "judicial activism" may make the Court look liberal on paper, these Justices are no bleeding hearts...

...forte is taking brilliantly sharp pictures. But the real meat of astronomical discovery comes not so much in pretty photos of celestial objects but in the detailed analysis of their light. By smearing that light into a spectrum--the rainbow of its component colors--scientists can identify the chemical makeup of a star or galaxy, how far away it is and how fast it's rotating, among other data.

...Without Seuss's guiding hand on the live-action Grinch movie, producer Brian Grazer and makeup artist Rick Baker argued whether the citizens of Who-ville should look odd (Baker's choice) or cute (Grazer's), and debate raged over what shade of green the Grinch should be. Because Seuss's own illustrations in his book were too austere for a splashy holiday movie (his Whos lived in thatched huts), production designer Michael Corenblith had to comb through the entire Seuss canon to find recurring shapes and motifs on which to base the film's swirling, elaborate sets...
