Fix for Firefox’s :focus outline layout bug
Going into geeky web developer mode here:
In a CSS layout, any block-level element that has an outline applied to its :focus state (by default in Firefox and most browsers for accessibility reasons,) and that is also enclosed in a container element that has overflow: auto applied to it (a widely used float clearing method) will potentially break the layout on focus.
The fix for this is to include :focus { outline-offset: -1px; } (or a similar value) in your stylesheet. This fixes the issue in Firefox 3.5.2 Win. More testing to come soon (Opera.)
New movie review: Avatar
I watched Avatar in 3D last night, and was underwhelmed. See the movie review.
(also returned the graphics and colors on this website. It might be a few until I can redesign.)
Movie reviews added: Pirate Radio, Step Brothers, Men Who Stare at Goats, Sherlock Holmes
I’ve added reviews for Pirate Radio (just ok!), Step Brothers (meh!), Men Who Stare at Goats (terrible!), and Sherlock Holmes (awesome!) on the Movie Reviews page.

2010 NBA Playoffs Bracket is live
The 2009-10 NBA season officially began today, and to kick things off right, we’re introducing our 2010 NBA Playoffs bracket!
If you are new to our brackets, here’s how it works: Throughout the season, the current standings are used to create a picture of how the playoffs would be structured if they began on any given day. It’s a fun way to track your team as they fight through 82 regular season games on their march to the Playoffs. The bracket is updated automatically with the conclusion of each game (refresh to see the changes after the games conclude.)
When the Playoffs arrive, the bracket will be updated with each team’s wins, along with game times and scores.
