In a vast cubicle office environment, when one stands up in one's own cube and looks along the tops of the many cube walls stretching out to the horizon. The cube horizon can be interrupted by the heads of people walking around. And by many heads at once if there is a loud, unexplained noise in the area. This can result in a phenomenom called prairie-dogging: many people stand up and look around like prairie dogs coming out of their holes.
I first came across "cube horizon" in James Hynes' novel "Kings of Infinite Space."
Having decided to sneak out early, Manfred casually stood up and surveyed the cube horizon for those that might spot him.

(CURRENT EVENTS) offshore oil drilling platform located off the coast of Louisiana and Mississippi. The platform was owned and operated by Transocean, LTD., under lease to British Petroleum (BP).
The well, which was in 1 mile of water, blew out (or ruptured) on 20 April 2010, and gushed millions of barrels of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico. On 14 July, the main rupture appeared to have been capped. By then, probably 4 million barrels of crude had been released into a sensitive habitat, destroying the livelihood of tens of thousands of people.
According to some estimates, the Deepwater Horizon blowout was the worst peacetime oil well blowout in history.
The Deepwater Horizon platform killed eleven crew members when it exploded. The operator and its lessor, BP, had been cited hundreds of times for major safety procedure violations.

"Event Horizon" was the third film directed by Paul W.S. Anderson after his first two films "Shopping" and "Mortal Kombat."
"Event Horizon" is set in the year 2047 and tells the story of a rescue crew that has been dispatched to retrieve the derelict space-vessle, the "Event Horizon."
After spending time aboard the ship, it's rescuers begin to have hallucinations and other various deleriums. It is later revealed in the movie that the "Event Horizon" was using an inter-deminsional travel device to go to a far corner of the universe, something went horribly wrong and the ship literally went to "hell" and the ship has become a living being bent on using it's rescuers fears to destroy them.
While Event Horizon borrows many elements from classic horror films such as "The Shining" and "Hellraiser" it's story is essentially a much darker and gorier version of Stanis³aw Lem's novel "Solaris."
Event Horizon was panned by critics when it was first released in 1997, but has been steadily gaining appreciation by both movie go-er's and critcs since then due to it's intricate camera work, special effects, and generally being ahead of it's time.
Event Horizon was Paul W.S. Anderson's best film.
