LOS ANGELES (AP) – Colin Trevorrow is taking the reins of "Jurassic Park."
Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment announced Thursday that the
36-year-old director will helm "Jurassic Park 4."

Trevorrow made his feature film directorial debut with last year’s "Safety Not
Guaranteed."

Steven Spielberg is executive producing "Jurassic Park 4," which is set for
release in 3-D on June 13, 2014. The script was written by "Rise of the Planet
of the Apes" screenwriters Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver.

The first two "Jurassic Park" films were directed by Spielberg, while the third
installment was helmed by "Captain America" director Joe Johnston.

An inscription on the violin’s tailpiece

(New York Post) – A rosewood violin played by bandmaster Wallace Hartley 
(above) on the Titanic deck as the ship sank has been confirmed as being
authentic by investigators, and could soon be brought to auction.

Hartley led seven other band members in hymns to calm passengers as
they lined up for lifeboats.

He and the other musicians went down with the ship while performing
“Nearer, My God, To Thee.”

“When we first saw the violin, we had to keep a lid on our excitement,
because it was almost as if it was too good to be true,” said Titanic
auctioneer Andrew Aldridge, of Henry Aldridge and Son, who spent
seven years of research to confirm its authenticity.

“It is the most important artifact relating to the Titanic to ever emerge,
and probably the most valuable.”

It’s worth six figures, and will likely be sold in the near future. For now,
however, it will be exhibited in Wiltshire, England.

The instrument was found inside a leather valise, engraved with Hartley’s
initials, that was strapped to his body.
