back on topic, "It all began when Creative Technology founder Sim Wong Hoo heard of Lucasfilm's intentions to expand out of the US.

Mr Sim sounded out EDB chairman Teo, who was in the US; the rest, as they say, is history." Both Mr Sim & Creative have small investments in the venture as well

Not sure. But with a high-tech outfit like Lucasfilm, you'd think it would be 3D...

A story for you biiru drinkers out there: Big Grin


SEATTLE (Reuters) - A black bear was found passed out at a campground in Washington state recently after guzzling down three dozen cans of a local beer, a campground worker said on Wednesday.

"We noticed a bear sleeping on the common lawn and wondered what was going on until we discovered that there were a lot of beer cans lying around hehe ," said Lisa Broxson, a worker at the Baker Lake Resort, 80 miles northeast of Seattle.

The hard-drinking bear, estimated to be about two years old, broke into campers' coolers and, using his claws and teeth to open the cans, swilled down the suds.

It turns out the bear was a bit of a beer sophisticate. He tried a mass-market Busch beer, but switched to Rainier Beer, a local ale, and stuck with it for his drinking binge.

Wildlife agents chased the bear away, but it returned the next day, said Broxson.

They set a trap using as bait some doughnuts, honey and two cans of Rainier Beer. It worked, and the bear was captured for relocation.

Coincidentally, there's a brewup restaurant in San Francisco by the name of Thirsty Bear, with a similar story.
