Optical Illusion of the day
As pointed out to me by the CTO, an extremely cool rendition of Eshers's impossible drawing "Ascending and Descending" in LEGO® I'd love to see shots of this from other angles, as they have for "Belvedere" and "Balcony".

Thoughts on "Empire"
I have to confess that watching Star Wars a few weeks back in this post-prequel era was something of a disappointment. The Empire Strikes Back on the other hand, is a much superior effort. Whilst it can can't match Attack of the Clones for the sheer wow factor of the visuals, it more than makes up for that in scripting and direction - perhaps it's no co-incidence that this is the episode in which George Lucas took something of a back seat - providing only the story.
