dewline: self-portrait, taken while drawing (Sketching)
Just got home from watching Spotlight at the movie theatre. Worth the time, worth the money. Packed room, I'm pleased to note.

Personally, I hope it has a very successful run. To those who worked on it in whatever role, whether on either side of the cameras, or in the background nowhere near either location shoots or soundstages?

Thank you all.

I promised the other day to run down a partial list of infrastructure-related weblogs I like reading regularly. So, in delivering on that promise...

I'll admit up front to the bias towards the Spacing Magazine-backed regional weblogs. I contribute to the Ottawa edition, and went to work with them on the basis of their magazine's in-print material. So, in addition to [livejournal.com profile] spacing_ottawa, we have four others:

Spacing Vancouver
Spacing Toronto
Spacing Montréal
Spacing Atlantic (focused on the Canadian cities of the Atlantic coastal provinces: Saint John, Fredericton, Moncton, Halifax, Sydney, Charlottetown, St. John's and so on)

(While I've got your attention: Spacing is looking for contributors to similar weblogs they've got in the works for these cities: Edmonton, Calgary, Regina, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Ville de Québec. If you live in any of those cities and you've got informed opinions on the infrastructure there - the definition of "infrastructure" is more wide-ranging than you might think! - go talk to them ASAP!)

Added to that from across Canada:

Public Transit in Ottawa
Public Transit in Vancouver (which apparently has fallen fallow since 2008! Distressing!)

From the rest of the planet:

The Transport Politic
The Next American City
Atlantic Cities
Good
BLDGBLOG

Anyone have any recommendations for adding to this list? I know it's incomplete!

...about at least one of his theories because I'm a fan of his TV series Intelligence. It's a damn good crime/espionage drama, and the first season's about to go retail on DVD. If you're fans of Queen & Country for example, I think it's a TV show worth your time.

I want to see it get a third, fourth, and fifth season. At minimum.

You will want to judge his latest comments for yourselves, though...and considering that the second half of next week's installments is entitled "We Were Here, Now We Disappear"...I'm more than a little worried.
