MOVIES: New Iron Man 3 poster feels ominous
What will happen at the end of Iron Man 3? Whatever it is, it has Joss Whedon wondering what he’s going to do in Avengers 2, and the new poster looks epic, but also feels like something alarming is about to happen.
KICKSTARTER: My Little Pony artist launches campaign for World of Gloomvania toys
The undead/creepy/bizarre toy craze has been going on for over a decade, and now that toys like Ugly Dolls, The Living Dead Dolls, and Mattel’s Monster High dolls are going strong, creators are looking for the next big thing. “My Little Pony” storybook illustrator Gayle Middleton, who in 2005 redesigned Hasbro’s Littlest Pet Shop toy line, thinks she may have found it, and is Kickstarter to launch the new line.

I think it has something to do with time lived divided by time period measured… or something like that – this is a comic and pop culture website, not a mathematics and psychology website.
