				What happened on io9 recently? We talked <em>Avatar 2</em> with Jon Landau, Eyjafjallajökul ruined flights (but looked darn purdy), Klingons screamed at us, Earth Day flicks disappointed us, and bunch of luchadores fought Dracula. In sum, a normal week.				<a href="http://io9.com/5523360/the-shiniest-stories-on-io9-this-week" title="Click here to read more about The Shiniest Stories On io9 This Week">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
