	XYZZYnews Exclusive: The Complete Infocom Bugs List
		There is a parser bug in Versions 7, 17, 18, 19, 22, and 23 that stems from having two objects of the same color in the same room (such as the blue label and the blue sphere), and then referring to the object simply by its color when trying to take it.
		Versions that appear in the IBM version of Lost Treasures of Infocom are preceded with an asterisk.
		Infocom's testers didn't find this originally, because they'd been leaving the sword to block the beam of light.

	Cyclists put heads down - Cycling -
		On Monday night, 22-year-old Dajka lost an appeal against his removal from the Olympic team at the Court of Arbitration for Sport, having been kicked out by the Australian Olympic Committee after admitting he had lied to two doping inquiries about self-injecting in the room of disgraced rider Mark French.

	Collaborative Information Retrieval: Gopher from MOO
		Notes were a familiar kind of object, and you could use them in familiar sorts of ways (reading a note, as opposed to ``picking'' an item from a list); however, they were a lot less flexible, so they lost most of the advantage of actually having the full Gopher service behind them.
		The choice of a `room' was to allow multiple participants to share a common experience, and to make the manipulation of the Gopher interface as much like an conventional Gopher interface as possible.
		One part is a single object which provides raw programmatic access to arbitrary Gopher data; the other is a set of objects which provide user interfaces to Gopher data, or in some cases specific subsets of that data.

	SFMOMA Exhibitions Kerry James Marshall
		Marshall chose to represent the living room because it is a place for the black middle class to display objects of social status, more than a room for ordinary daily life.

	Negative Ions
		Negative ions in a room cause dust, pollen, tobacco smoke, molds, and other allergens to stick together and fall to the floor, or to be attracted to objects in the room.
		Positive air ions are molecules that have lost an electron; a negative air ion is generally a molecule of oxygen with an extra electron.
		"Ions are charged particles in the air that are formed when enough acts upon a molecule such as carbon dioxide, oxygen, water, or nitrogen to eject and electron form the molecule leaving a positively charged ion.

	village voice > art > Chris Martin by Jerry Saltz
		Adding to the hippie flavor are nearly 200 keepsakes or power objects hanging cheek by jowl, floor to ceiling, in the rear room.
		In effect, Martin is saying one of two things: either "When Williamsburg is developed, real estate prices will skyrocket, and all this will be lost forever"; or "Come hell or high rents the Williamsburg spirit will change but live on." I believe the latter.
		Chris Martin is a perennial member of the large, by nature neglected, nonetheless crucial and treasured confederacy known as "artist's artists." He's one of the dark horses and workers-at-the-edge respected by their peers who never quite get their due.

	Nintendo's University of Classic Gaming
		The Rescue Rangers get a distress call from a little girl who has lost her kitten and the Rescue Rangers, doing what they do best in small cases like this one, decide to search for the kitten.
		Even the stages themselves, such as an office room, a toy store, and a sewer are depicted as humongous compared to the size of the Rescue Rangers, which almost makes it feel like an episode of the TV show and makes it worth playing.
		There are many everyday objects in the game that become big obstacles in the path between you and Fat Cat, such as sharp cactus plants, frayed electrical wires, water taps, electric fans, and more.

	Pigs, discourse and ecology
		Reconstructing pigs as objects paves the way for people to treat them in ways which go against their nature, for example, confining huge numbers of pigs indoors in the same room, or stacking pigs into trucks and driving them to distant slaughterhouses.
		Millions of these pigs are confined indoors on intensive farms, fed antibiotics, choke on ammonia from pools of waste, have their environment controlled by machines, and are driven across the country in trucks to a few central processing plants where they are messily slaughtered (Eisnitz 1997).
		Other health concerns, such as the damage to pigs' lungs caused by the ammonia they breath, injuries to their legs from slatted floors, and the effects of not being able to move, can be ignored when health is defined only in terms of reproduction and growth.

	MoMA.org The Collection Rachel Whiteread. Untitled (Paperbacks). 1997
		Untitled (Paperbacks) is a room-sized installation that feels empty but isn't quite: on all four walls hang rows of long white objects that look like shelves but are not, for they are plaster, not wood, and their surfaces are uneven, and vacant.
		Her more recent outdoor Holocaust memorial in Vienna is another room, once lined with books, which left their marks on the outside of a sealed block, symbolizing the lives and the culture lost to Nazi persecution.
		Although there is nothing to read in it, it is filled with the knowledge, ideas, and memories contained in books, even if you must bring those associations with you into this serene, but haunted, place.

		IIRC there may be one in a cheat room - the one in the Isles of the Mad Mage.

	Raven Storytelling/Spoken Word
		His medicine bag was filled with the magic of his lost childhood: a duck feather, a round white pebble, a pig bone that he variously pretended was human or bison or bear, and an arrowhead he'd found in a field his father rented out to a farmer.
		In Germany, the stolen bundle was locked in an airless glass box, inside the safe which was in a hidden room in Herr Trautmann's house.
		That he was successful only proved his point, and like the bundle, he kept himself tightly contained, lest his emotions and dreams escape, unraveling the man he patterned himself to be.

	Stuntman Review
		The Scarab of the Lost Souls level has a theme song, which is almost identical to the real Indiana Jones theme.
		The stunt constructor mode lets you place ramps, barrels, cars and other objects in an arena so that you can build and perform your own stunts.
		Until you start the stunt you will not know what you have to do, so each movie stunt has a very steep learning curve, there is very little room for error and if you do mess it up you will have to restart your stunt.

	"WALL STREET"
		GEKKO LIVING ROOM - DAY Immense slanted ceilings, a vast clean modern space filled with dozens of contemporary art objects, junk sculptures, floor to ceiling windows radiating light, that look out on a cantilevered deck and pool - and the ocean beyond.
		GEKKO One thing I do know is this paper company lost $110 million last year, and I'd bet half of that is in the paperwork going back and forth between all the vice presidents...
		Gekko's eyes drifting to Bud, a friendly easy smile for a flick of an instant, he has genuine charm in his manner and though ultrafast verbally, projects calm and confidence at the center.

	2046; that one movie with my wife in it!
		As these objects are shown in a circular pattern as they move from the beginning of one scene to the end of the next, so does this movie constantly have a circular transition of passages in time, and the idea that history repeats itself.
		'2046' is the name of the apartment across the hall from him, and is a number that reverberates echoes of his past.
		Writing about the train that takes people to 2046, where everyone finds their lost memories and all but one have never returned is all in reference to Chow Mo-Wan's desire to work out his own inner demons.

	CGTalk - Lighting crit please :)
		The lights should be intenser but fall off way faster, keeping the room corners very dark but with bright pools of light.
		If I brighten the lights then some of the atmosphere is lost.
		I also think the foreground objects should only be suggested by light.

	John Lennon: 1964-67
		John swept past the objects in which he had lost interest: 'That's Sidney' (a suit of armour); 'That's a hobby I had for a week' (a room full of model racing cars); 'Cyn won't let me get rid of that (a fruit machine).
		•John was visiting the island with Alistair and he pointed to a spot down by the bay and told Alistair that he could have it.
		John was to tell Brian, then, that he'd rather cancel the tour than apologize (Lipack, p.

	The Metropolitan Museum of Art - Press Room - Current Press Releases
		Included are objects that illustrate aspects of education, political activity, daily life, and the rich intricate myths and legends that surrounded the Olympian gods and Greek heroes.
		By the end of the fifth century B.C., as a consequence of the Peloponnesian War (431-404 B.C.), Athens lost her primacy among the Greek states.
		Among the known leading artistic personalities represented in this gallery, Exekias was the consummate master of the black-figure technique, practiced from the late seventh to the early fifth centuries B.C., in which the glazed portions of a work were black and the remaining surface was the deep orange color of the clay.

	Carnelian Beads
		One such collection of beads and other objects from several periods was found in a small pot inside a room at Harappa dating to circa 1800 B.C. (the Cemetery H Culture at Harappa).
		This collection may represent the effort of someone to collect beads that had been lost in earlier periods or passed down by previous generations.
		This site provides information about recent research on the development and decline of this civilization and the cultures that emerged after its decline.

	Cos496
		The theory behind both of these is that there is sufficient "random" noise added by the environment, the low quality of these input devices, and the varying position of objects in the room to produce a chaotic system.
		If we allow the adversary to have super-user priviliges on the machine which generates the random number, then all is lost, since this system role could easily capture the same chaotic data which the seed depends upon.
		These numbers are, obviously, as random as the images which are fed into the camera or microphone.

	transporter (Star Trek)
		One (or two) of William Shatner's better performances as Kirk came in Star Trek's first-season episode, "The Enemy Within." Having beamed up from a mission on the planet Alpha 177, Kirk feels faint and is helped from the transporter room by Mr.
		Initially confused and ambivalent, Tuvix eventually carves out a clear identity and personality of his own, and when a means is discovered to undo the mix-up caused by the transporter accident, he objects, not unreasonably, on the grounds that it will kill him.
		Transporter fission turns to fusion in the Voyager episode "Tuvix," when crewmates Tuvok, the Vulcan security officer, and Neelix, the spotty Talaxian, longtime antagonists, are merged during a teleportation into one person.
