There are tons of insights into Clarke's life, writing and technological foresight. But the most interesting bit might be a section about Clarke's belief that American capitalism was diverting too much talent into useless occupations, like banking, instead of the space program.The profile quoted Clarke on the subject. He said: "No nation can afford to divert its ablest men into essentially non-creative and occasionally parasitic occupations such as law, insurance and banking".
It's official. Lionsgate announces that Jennifer Lawrence, long thought to be the front runner for the role, has indeed signed on the dotted line to play Katniss in Lionsgate's adaptation of Suzanne Collins' "The Hunger Games".

When one young scavenger finds a crashed spacecraft planet side, it leads him on a new journey.
