The winner is Ron Paul, both based on my analysis and the actual Ron Paul cheering at the debate, and the loser would really be hard to detect because about everybody got a 2 or 3 in the losses category. The losers really are Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, John Mccain, and Fred Thompson. What is ironic is, despite the fact that they are white, the three veteran debate skippers are descendant of minorities, themselves! Giuliani is Italian, Mccain, is Irish, and Romney is a Mormon. So, while they may think of themselves as these big-shots... they would have had to rely with all of the other minorities in the 1910 era, as well!

Hotel Chevalier is a short film by Wes Anderson, creator of Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, and The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. It is supposed to help provide some back story to the main character in his new movie The Darjeeling Limited. It is about 13 minutes long an features Jason Schwartzman and Natalie Portman.

News continues uncheerily. Both the British and Australian ambassadors in Burma, and the British Prime Minister Gordon Brown agree with me that if the official death toll is 9, the actual loss of life must be "far greater". On Thursday and Friday, the protestors have started to return the military's violence, which is a slippery slope. As an ordinary human being I can't blame them - I am not sure that I could face down a tank. But it is easy for the governments of other countries to denounce the violence when it's one-sided, and perhaps harder if the protestors are actually fighting the military.

This weekend at the movies: some very good-looking options. Jennifer Garner kicks up dust (which she does so well) along with Jamie Foxx in The Kingdom. Fans of director Ang Lee - responsible for everything from the intimate Brokeback Mountain to the epic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon - will want to check out Lust, Caution. We hear that there are some seriously explicit sex scenes in the flick; might want to leave Mom at home. But you know what we've been waiting for: the latest Wes Anderson ooh-la-la, The Darjeeling Limited, with Owen Wilson and Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman. You already know you'll want the soundtrack too.

Soldiers clubbed activists in the streets and fired warning shots Friday, moving decisively to break up demonstrations in Myanmar before they could gain momentum. Troops occupied Buddhist monasteries and cut public Internet access, raising concerns that the crackdown on civilians that has killed at least 10 people was set to intensify.

Barack Obama campaigned at a rally in Washington Square Park last night. We live a block north of the park, and I could hear noise and music coming from there yesterday after work. I wondered what was going on until I remembered. I didn ’ t go to the rally - I ’ m curious about Obama, but (1) I had therapy, and (2) I don ’ t want to stand in a crowd for two hours before Obama shows up.

The Senate passed the Matthew Shepard Act yesterday on a voice vote after nine Republicans joined in a 60-39 vote to end debate. The Act was attached to the defense authorization bill, which makes a threatened veto at least somewhat problematic (the House passed the bill as a standalone in May). The Bush administration says it just wants to prosecute all violent crimes the same way, but I haven ’ t heard it proposing a repeal of existing federal hate crimes law, which covers race, religion, color, and national origin.

Peter Berg is proving himself to be a gifted director, especially with Friday Night Lights (both the movie and the pilot for the NBC drama). He does a nice job here, and the action is extremely well shot, but he's hindered by a weak script from writer Matthew Michael Carnahan. I felt no sense of dread or terror or suspense at any point, because I didn't give a shit about anyone. Each character is given exactly one personality trait. Chris Cooper has been around a while. Jennifer Garner is pretty. Jamie Foxx has a son. Jason Bateman makes wisecracks. We don't get to know these people at all past that.

I think the Grey's premiere was respectable, they 're being silly and they know it. We'll all wondering why Mark is still there and Addison had to leave and become a poopyhead in the spinoof no one will watch, but anyways .... I watched Grey's from the beginning when it was the dishy and hopefully show following Desperate Housewives, now it's a cynical and confused show leading in ill-fated and unoriginal Big Shots, which was probably pitched as Desparate CEOS. Ah Michael Vartan and Dylan Mcdermott, the things you make me watch! ha.

A federal judge issued a stern rebuke of a key White House antiterror law, striking down as unconstitutional two pillars of the USA Patriot Act. U.S. District Judge Ann Aiken ruled Wednesday that using the act to authorize secret searches and wiretapping to gather criminal evidence - instead of intelligence gathering - violates the constitutional protection against unreasonable searches and seizures.

Then there's Green Bay Packers QB Brett Favre who proved his arm and his tear ducts were still intact after last season's win over the Chicago Bears. Favre got emotional during an interview after the game, leading some to believe he was ready to hang up his jersey for good. Turns out that despite his tears, he was a far cry from leaving the league. And it looks like his team is all the better for it.

The 17 slide seminars included breast pathology, dermatopathology, gastrointestinal pathology, hematopathology, neuropathology and uropathology. The originals of the slides were on ordinary microscopy glass. A ‘ virtual slide ’ digitised at a thousand-fold magnification can hold more than 60 gigabytes of data. More than 160 specimens were digitised in this way for use at the conference. Handling such large amounts of data was made possible because of efficient compression techniques and a viewing system adopted from the satellite imaging industry. “ Viewing of the samples very much resembles the use of Google Earth and puts only modest requirements on the pathologist ’ s computer, ” said Dr Mikael Lundin, who was responsible for the project ’ s technical development - Webmicroscope.

They've been taking quite a bit of heat for their absence, even from fellow Republicans. Newt Gingrich had called their decisions an "enormous error" and "fundamentally wrong," and had said the scheduling excuses were "baloney"; Former RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman urged the candidates to reconsider; and former vice presidential candidate Jack Kemp said their decisions make it seem as though Republicans do not want black votes.

Now, before you accuse this TV Addict of being an unapologetic VERONICA MARS fanboy. Consider this. My positive review isn ’ t at all related to the fact Jason Dohring is now a series regular on the show. In fact, he does such a poor job in his opening scene that I can only assume he was doing a cold read of the script. Thankfully, his second scene is a vast improvment and somewhat of a depressing reminder that Logan Echolls won ’ t be returning to television anytime soon.

“ In many ways, rats and mice get greater protection as research subjects in the United States than do humans, ” said Arthur L.

Dr. Caplan is quoted in the NY Times today, in response to a report due to be released Friday by the inspector general of the Department of Health and Human Services, Daniel R. Levinson. The report finds that Food and Drug Administration does very little to ensure the safety of the millions of people who participate in clinical trials.

Feast of Love. (2007, 102 minutes, R, romantic comedy, trailer) At first glance, this isn't a movie that would immediately attract me, but I am willing to give most films a shot. Upon slight further inspection, this actually looks pretty good. It is a modern take on A Midsummer's Night Dream as love stirs up trouble. The cast looks good and includes Morgan Freeman, Greg Kinnear, Selma Blair, Radha Mitchell, Jane Alexander, and Alexa Davalos. All of the love combinations entwine into a tapestry. The movie was directed by Robert Benton from a screenplay by Allison Burnett based on a novel by Charles Baxter. The trailer looks good, and Freeman has some of the best lines.

The highly anticipated version 1.1.1 iphone firmware update was finally released yesterday. As expected, installing this firmware renders an unlocked iphone completely unusable, partially bricking the iphone. There are unconfirmed reports that iphones unlocked using the paid iphonesimfree method could be re-activated with the original AT&T SIM card but the unlocked iphones are re-locked. So this firmware update basically makes everything back to square one. The iphone Dev team will have to start everything from scratch: decrypting the 1.1.1 firmware, get write access, activate, enable third-party apps and unlocking.

On the ground here in Venezuela things are as active as ever. President Chávez will not be attending the 62nd General Assembly session at the United Nations in New York this year (I didn't think he would). I think it's best to give at least a one year gap between those intense visits. Anyway, Evo Morales is making his first major appearance in the United States and at the United Nations (heard he would appear on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart), and it's important that no attention be taken away from Bolivia this year, since the internal situation is quite delicate. A coup is in the works against the government of Evo Morales and the international community must take steps to prevent it.

Okay. With the end of September comes the end of the summer blockbuster sequel and franchise season. It marks the begining of Oscar season. This is when the meat of the film industry gets released. What better way to start the season than with David Cronenberg. His newest film, "Eastern Promises", is the first film that DC has done since one of my favorites of'05 "A History Of Violence". It also marks the second time that he and Viggo Mortenson have worked together. However, the biggest similarity between the two is this one thing. They are both brilliant pieces of art.

On paper this game couldn ’ t have been a bigger mismatch, Joel Pinerio vs. Pedro Martinez. The Cardinals had a battery out there that had never played together, Albert Pujols was nursing injuries, and the Natural took the bribes and cashed in his integrity, along with his talent, long ago. Over in Philadelphia the Phils were getting ready to finish up against the Braves with a chance to knot things up before they finish up their season against the Nationals. With rookie Kyle Kendrick on the mound they certainly had a shot, but with John Smoltz ’ s name penciled in for the visitors it became a long shot. But with the big three headlining the leagues most productive offense anything was possible.

- Based on a true story, and a bestselling book by Jon Krakauer, this film examines the adventures that a top student and athlete experiences when he decides to give up all his money and possessions and hitchhike to Alaska to live in the wilderness. Sounds like one of those dull, painful, inspirational/message pieces, but the film's cast includes Emile Hirsch, Marcia Gay Harden, William Hurt, Catherine Keener, Vince Vaughn, and Hal Holbrook; it was directed by Sean Penn; and it's getting pretty excellent reviews, so we can't not recommend it.

For the running backs, LT, LJ, and Stephen Jackson, the unanimous top three in the league all are struggling. Who leads in yards? None other than Willie Parker who I said was a top five back in this league and a poor mans LT. The biggest joke in the NFL was everyone thinking Randy Moss to the Patriots was no big deal, because Moss was over the hill. Well Randy is looking like the Packer fan mooning Viking we all loved so much. And with Tom Brady throwing the ball, and Maroney running it, there isn't much opposing defenses can do.

Game 159 looked to be a fairly uninteresting game going in. The house money/rest everyone line-up was in as six of the regulars got a rest. Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Bobby Abreu, Jorge Posada, Doug Mientkiewicz and Melky Cabrera were not in the line-up. Still, there was two big reasons to watch this game and they were both under the age of 24. Scott Kazmir was and starting and in need of 6 strikeouts to pass Johan Santana as the K leader for the majors. Phil Hughes was looking for a solid start against a good hitting team (Tampa Bay was 5th in the AL in scoring after the ASB -. 276/. 346/. 443/. 788 line for the team) to solidify his role on the postseason roster.

Passed by a bunch of news vending machines today and one of the freebie mags had David Wright and Jose Reyes on the cover, with recipes of theirs and Willie Randolph's favorite meals. I believe the mag was titled "Good Health." It was right next to...

Recognizing the case of the “ Jena 6 ” as a clear sign of injustice impacting the entire civil rights community, HRC President Joe Solmonese took to the podium today (along with members of our staff) to express the support of the Human Rights Campaign for justice and equal treatment of the six black teenagers whose lives are on the line in Jena, La. Here is the text of his prepared remarks: My name is Joe Solmonese and I represent the/o: p.

The circles in the photo are where former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, former Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson, and Sen. John Mccain of Arizona would have stood if only the Republicans had not skipped the debate at the historically black Morgan State University in Maryland.

One by one each couple was deemed safe except for Mark Cuban partnered with Kym Johnson and Josie Maran partnered with Alec Mazo. Josie was a given and Mark was rather suprising. I guess his overconfidence didn ’ t translate well to the viewers.

Y'all... I may have to actually buy/play a Halo game, even though I hate first-person shooters: To quote Bill Mudron of PPC: Okay, so Halo 3's campaign mode was pretty "eh", but having Nathan Fillion barking orders in your ear while Katee Sackhoff is busy mowing down bad guys with a chaingun mounted to the back of your Warthog, all while you 're given support from Marines voiced by Alan Tudyk and Adam Baldwin .... well, Bungie, you 're forgiven

As people may have heard, my home state has garnered a bit of attention for being the place where Senator Larry Craig was arrested and plead guilty to disorderly conduct in an airport bathroom. Senator Craig has denied that he was in the restroom trolling for sexual encounters between flights but he's not the first to be caught in a "wide stance" in that particular restroom.

I want to believe aliens are the reason Tom built a bunker, but it ’ s time to face reality: the bunker is for Katie Holmes. He probably feels bad about locking her in the closet so he ’ s upgrading her living conditions. But, hey, protecting her from Klaatu or whoever? Space aliens? That ’ s a good reason too.

I ’ m still not on the Frank Gore or Patrick Willis wagon. Not until they start winning and producing good numbers consistently. Seattle is without Shaun Alexander but, lately, I can ’ t figure out if that ’ s a good thing or a bad thing. Another one of those terrible NFC games. Yawn.

The white supremacist who posted the home addresses of five members of the so-called “ Jena 6 ″ on a website says he also plans to reveal the personal information of Rev. Jesse Jackson. He has already posted what he claims are addresses for Rev. Al Sharpton and Martin Luther King III on his blog, which also carries the Jena addresses.

“ You ’ re going to see some tears when they hit that stage, ” said Modesto, California ’ s Matt Caramella as he waited for Van Halen with David Lee Roth to hit the stage for the first time since 1984 in Charlotte, North Carolina, last night. Sure enough, tears streamed down his face as the lights went down and Eddie Van Halen appeared on the darkened stage, shirtless and wearing faded green Army fatigue shorts and white sneakers, cranking out the first few riffs of the band ’ s reconstituted Kinks cover “ You Really Got Me. ” By the time Roth came out, wearing tight black leather pants, a polka-dotted shirt and white sports jacket with gaudy black embroidery, Caramella was in fist-pumping ecstasy. “ These guys are my heroes, ” he shouted over the din, “ the gods of rock & roll. ”

Scott Kazmir was good last night, but Phil Hughes was better. Joba Chamberlain pitched the eighth -- including an emphatic strikout of BJ Upton -- and Jose Veras earned the save as the Yankees won their 92nd game of the year, 3-1. It is looking more and more like the Yanks will face the Indians in the first round of the playoffs. You can throw the Yankees 6-0 record vs the Tribe out of the window -- the Bombers only faced Fausto Carmona once this year, and didn't see C.C. at all. But heck, the American League playoff teams -- "the fantastic four," as Brian Cashman called them the other night -- are all tough. If the Yanks are to be champs, they've got to beat the best,'nuff said.

Last Sunday, the Cowboys made a statement by going into Soldier Field and routing the Bears 34-10. Dallas had their first game with a 300-yard passer (Tony Romo - 329 yards), 100-yard rusher (Marion Barber III - 102 yards), and 100-yard receiver (T.O. - 145 yards) since 1999, and only the third in team history. And, Anthony Henry picked off two passes for the second straight game, and returned one for a game-sealing score, earning himself the NFC Defensive Player of the Week award.

So there is a chance, albeit a slim one, that we will actually witness a hockey game. Except that the Rangers will be without their scoring star, Jaromir Jagr, now sidelined with a hip flexor sustained by pushing himself too hard in practice yesterday. Aside from the absence of Jagr and Avery, as well as Paul Mara not dressing, the Rangers will be icing clost to their full NHL team, with rookie hopefuls Marc Staal, Brandon Dubinsky, Artem Anisimov, and Nigel Dawes battling it out for the final roster spots. Henrik Lundqvist is expected to go the distance, but Rick Dipietro will not be in net for the strangely costumed bridge and tunnel team.

Watched the UGLY BETTY premiere last night and if it ’ s possible, they ’ ve topped themselves from last year. Resolving all the cliffhangers ingeniously throughout the episode I found myself as usual to be thoroughly entertained … and I can ’ t believe that they killed off Santos.. I wanted to believe that he was alive and so bought into Hilda ’ s fantasy almost up until the very end of the episode although I find it difficult to believe that neither Betty nor Justin wouldn ’ t be grieving … Betty maybe, but Santos was Justin ’ s dad. Judith Light continues to amaze and her Wilhemina smackdown was a pleasant surprise as was the revelation that Amandas parents are swingers. High marks for this episode and it will stay firmly entrenched on my DVR.
