Johnny Depp being led out of a New York hotel in a green beanie became one of the defining images of the '90s — the moment the paparazzi flash started treating movie stars as prey.

Pork tenderloin in a chipotle marinade brightened with orange zest, grilled over mesquite and served with a grilled nopal cactus salad. Steven Raichlen gets smoke, heat and citrus onto one plate.

Matt Moore puts the mango on the grill first, so a little caramelized char goes into the blender with it. Then a Tajín rim — salty, spicy and sweet at once. A grilled mango margarita.

Disney executives watching early Pirates of the Caribbean footage couldn't make sense of Jack Sparrow — was Johnny Depp drunk? As he tells it, they worried he was ruining the movie. The character made him a global star.

On the anniversary of the first James Bond movie (Dr. No) being premiered back in 1962, here are my top 10 James Bond films:
1. Skyfall (2012) ~ Daniel Craig
2. From Russia with Love (1963) ~ Sean Connery
3. Goldfinger (1964) ~ Sean Connery
4. The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) ~ Roger Moore
5. Casino Royale (2006) ~ Daniel Craig
6. Live and Let Die (1973) ~ Roger Moore
7. GoldenEye (1995) ~ Pierce Brosnan
8. Dr. No (1962) ~ Sean Connery
9. Thunderball (1965) ~ Sean Connery
10. The Living Daylights (1987) ~ Timothy Dalton
On this date in 1962 (5th October), the first James Bond movie "Dr. No" premiered. In his first scene as James Bond, Sean Connery sits at a baccarat table, lights up a cigarette and says “Bond. James Bond”. One of the most iconic scenes in movie history. nitter.gq/JeffWCarlton/status/21…

In Verbier, a machine turns out raclette without ever getting tired — which Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan find less impressive than unsettling. Their plan is to keep eating in front of it, just in case.

A six-pound pork shoulder marinated in gochujang, then smoked low until it pulls apart. Steven Raichlen calls the result fireworks in your mouth — sweet, salty, spicy, deep with umami.

Bob Ross didn't start painting happy trees until later in life, but his roots in Orlando, Florida planted the seeds of a strong work ethic and his love of critters.
The folks at the Orange County History Center help us dig into Bob's early years.

Nicholas Hankins on where beginners go wrong with fan brush trees: don't crowd the top. Leave a little air up there — enough that a bird could fly through without breaking its back.

🚨 MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: YouTube will start prioritizing original content and reducing re-uploads (RIP clipping)
YouTube has just announced one of the most impactful changes to its short-form algorithm. Its recommendation systems (the algorithm) will start to further prioritize original content and reduce the reach of content re-uploaded from other creators without adding anything of your own.
They highlight this shift toward originality, where channels with primarily re-uploaded content will see less distribution within the Shorts feed.
It also seems like they’re really trying to put the focus on content with real value, while highlighting that YouTube doesn’t want as many “minor technical edits” or “template-based” changes. Which is basically all that clipping was in this industry.
Overall, while this will piss off some people whose entire careers were built on the premise of other people’s content (mostly clippers), the change itself is amazing and will finally address the overall quality issue we’ve been seeing.

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
