How would you sum up the last month of action?
It's been a bit of a mixed bag. We knew the Christmas period was going to be tough and we did well against QPR, Fulham and Wigan. But we were gutted to get beaten by Blackburn on New Year's Eve and then Newcastle a few days later. The win at Manchester City in the FA Cup has given us a lift, so we hope now we can kick on because there are some big games to come.
Will that win over City have any impact on the title race?
I don't think so, no. The biggest thing it did was give us a morale boost at a time when people were starting to write us off. Instead of crumbling we went to City and beat them on their home turf, even if we made hard work of it in the second half. Winning that game showed a lot of character.
Especially as you went into the match as underdogs, on the back of two defeats...
Exactly. It was a big result. Even had it been against different opposition or in a different competition, it would have been essential to win that game. Everybody expected us to take maximum points against Blackburn and Newcastle because we'd done well against Wigan, Fulham and QPR. So to lose those two matches hurt a lot and prompted a lot of criticism. It made the FA Cup tie even more of a must-win game. We were determined to show the world we could still perform and I think we did that in the first half.
Is recent criticism unfair, given United have more points per game this season?
I can understand it because we're behind City in the league and expectations of this club – from both inside and out – are massive. If we're not on top then everybody's asking why. Rightly so, too. Finishing second with more points than we collected last season won't

The Madrid region
The grand metropolis of Madrid can trace its origins to the times of Arab Emir Mohamed I (852-886), who ordered the construction of a fortress on the left bank of the Manzanares river. Later it became the subject of a dispute between the Christians and Arabs until it was conquered by Alonso VI in the 11th century. At the end of the 17th century, a defensive wall was built for the protection of the new outlying areas, tracing the roads of Segovia, Toledo and Valencia. During the 18th century, under the reign of Carlos III, were designed the great arteries of the city, such as the Paseo del Prado and Paseo las Acacias.
In addition to the capital itself, there are enough places of interest within reach - Toledo, Segovia, Aranjuez, Alcala de Henares, Chinchón – all listed as an UNESCO World Heritage site.
For Spaniards who don't live in Madrid, the capital's weather is a source of amusement. It has, they say, a climate of extremes, as summed up by the phrase nueve meses de invierno y tres de infierno (nine months of winter and three of hell). But looking at it from the bright side you will find an absence of humidity, a piercing blue sky for much of winter, and hot, dry summer days.
Madrid City
The most Spanish of Spanish cities, the capital Madrid will show you both high culture and nightclubs and bars. Choose from astonishing art galleries, relentless nightlife, an exceptional live music scene, a feast of fine restaurants and tapas bars, and meet a population that's mastered the art of living the good life.
A cosmopolitan city, located in the heart of the peninsula and right in the centre of the Castillian plain 646 meters above sea level, with a population of more than 3 million. A Spanish business centre, headquarters for the Public Administration, Government, Spanish Parliament and the home of the Spanish Royal Family, Madrid also plays a major role in both the banking and industrial sectors.
Madrid is a city of great monuments. Among its highlights are the medieval centre dating back to the Habsburg Empire and the Prado Museum. Madrid plazas are some of the most beautiful in Spain. Visit a Madrid bullfight at the plaza Las Ventas Madrid or go the historical Madrid Plaza Mayor in the centre of the city. And if football is your thing, you shouldn't miss out on a match with Real Madrid at the Bernabeu stadium.

Abstract: Venoms from cone snails (Conidae) have been extensively studied during the last decades, but those from other members of the suborder Toxoglossa, such as of Terebridae and Turridae superfamilies attracted less interest so far. Here, we report the effects of venom and gland extracts from three species of the superfamily Terebridae. By 2-electrode voltage-clamp technique the gland extracts were tested on Xenopus oocytes expressing nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) of rat neuronal (α3β2, α3β4, α4β2, α4β4, α7) and muscle subtypes (α1β1γδ), and expressing potassium (Kv1.2 and Kv1.3) and sodium channels (Nav1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.6). The extracts were shown to exhibit remarkably high inhibitory activities on almost all nAChRs tested, in particular on the α7 subtype suggesting the presence of peptides of the A-superfamily from the venom of Conus species. In contrast, no effects on the potassium and sodium channels tested were observed. The venoms of terebrid snails may offer an additional source of novel biologically active peptides.

Freelancers Reviews
This is a film with no heroes, no narrative rhythm, and characters with no morals. As a result, it is also a film with no sense of purpose, no authenticity and no life.
Full Review | Original Score: 1/5
7M Pictures
Truth is, [Curtis] Jackson is not a good actor; not in the slightest.
Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/5
"Freelancers" is De Niro's second-worst film of 2012 after "Red Lights." God help us; he's got two more to go.
Full Review | Original Score: 0.5/4
Freelancers is a dull, lifeless cop drama built on cliches, powered by throwaway supporting performances from Forest Whitaker and Robert De Niro.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/10

Are Currency ETFs Zero-Sum Speculation or a Hedge Against Risk?
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- It wasn't always easy to invest in currencies.
But now exchange-traded products offer access to asset classes that previously could not be accessed through brokerage accounts, including currencies.
Currency funds first hit the market in in 2005, when Rydex (since acquired by Guggenheim), created the CurrencyShares Euro (FXE). That was then followed by CurrencyShares for several other currencies in the ensuing months.
The belief back then was that the dollar had to go down. The new currency funds offered a form of diversification for a dollar-based portfolio.
The concept was immediately popular, as the dollar was dropping against some of the major currencies in what many at the time believed was a one-way trade. In one stretch from late 2005 into 2008, the dollar fell 25% against the euro and 12% against the British pound. In 2007, CurrencyShares announced the FXE had amassed over $1 billion in assets. Since then, the euro and other major currencies stopped being a one-way trade and turned into a less predictable, short-term trading vehicle. FXE bled assets. Now, according to ETF.com, it has only $210 million in assets. The currency fund with the most assets now is the CurrencyShares Australia Trust (FXA) at $325 million, probably because of FXA's relatively high trailing yield of 1.98%. Still, over the last year it is down 12% more than its offsetting yield. The reality is that exposure to a single currency is closer to a zero-sum speculation as opposed to an investment. While speculation is of course valid, it may not be what all investors want to do. One form of currency exposure that could work more effectively to diversify a dollar-based portfolio are ETFs that offer exposure to baskets of currencies.Select the service that is right for you!

Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom is official: 4.3-incher with 10x optical zoom, OIS and Xenon flash
174 Comments
1. tiara6918 (Posts: 1200; Member since: 26 Apr 2012)
As much as I like the zoom thing for camera phones, but this device is so FREAKING UGLY!
6. EXkurogane (Posts: 863; Member since: 07 Mar 2013)
Samsung duct taped a Galaxy S4 mini with a Galaxy Camera, and i would like to see a drop test for this. Yes, it wont be durable. Add in otterbox case it will be a true BRICK compared to any Nokia phones out there.
Lumia EOS will eat this for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Other than the optical zoom it has no other advantages to me.

Samesung on steriods named Galaxy,every week we have a new smartphone.
20. santaclaus (Posts: 52; Member since: 20 Jul 2011)
i would say this S4 Zoom is not comparable to EOS. First, it is bulkier than EOS. Second, its optical zoom does not stand a place against superpixel of 41MP EOS
22. polrt (banned) (Posts: 73; Member since: 04 Dec 2012)
I'm not going to say anything bad about this device, the pictures say it all!
Sorry, I changed my mind, this device is a piece of junk.
Samsung R.I.P
25. polrt (banned) (Posts: 73; Member since: 04 Dec 2012)
And when this device will receive the like iOS7 UI?
27. MCrapp (Posts: 312; Member since: 07 Apr 2013)
When iOS7 copy more from Android.WP8..........
35. polrt (banned) (Posts: 73; Member since: 04 Dec 2012)
But Android do not look like WP8, so iOS7 look like Android or WP8?
26. MCrapp (Posts: 312; Member since: 07 Apr 2013)
Samsung R.I.P!? Because they make camera with smartphone stuff? You are so funny!
29. polrt (banned) (Posts: 73; Member since: 04 Dec 2012)
Thanks :)
66. EXkurogane (Posts: 863; Member since: 07 Mar 2013)
Did you just say Samsung R.I.P? Yep. True. After all, Lumia EOS, EOS stands for End Of Samsung.
23. EXkurogane (Posts: 863; Member since: 07 Mar 2013)
Actually the optical zoom allows for further zoom, but when you take a photo without zooming then nothing (other then OIS) can help to improve the sharpness of the photo, and reduce noise. So i still prefer the oversampling tech.
30. EXkurogane (Posts: 863; Member since: 07 Mar 2013)
Lumia EOS's optical zoom is better. Check it out here.
38. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 2957; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Lol...i thought it was a real comparison!!
61. Pedro0x (Posts: 254; Member since: 19 Oct 2012)
Optical zoom is lossless in daylight and will be better than eos. This camera will be better than in daylight than eos, just like all lumias vs for example SGS4 (SGS4 crushes lumia in daylight). But maybe eos will be better in night. This will be fight to be seen.
63. bon24x7 (Posts: 140; Member since: 30 Aug 2012)
does this so called SGS4 take better pics than a pureview 808? If not what makes you think S4 zoom will be better against Lumia EOS? EOS will probably be better in daylight and night..
64. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
not true, the EOS wont be able to zoom in to the extent of the 10x optical zoom but thanks to oversamspling you can crop pictures with the loss of quality. plus the 808 beat the galaxy camera in quality in daylight so expect the same from the EOS
s4 doesnt crush the range of lumia's in daylight either, there pretty comparable and on par depending on the situation.
73. mafiaprinc3 (Posts: 254; Member since: 07 May 2012)
SGS4 doesn't even come near to the lumia 920 or 925 in daylight or night. where'd you get your info.
u need a pair of glasses,or new ones if you're already wearing them
88. Taters (Posts: 2104; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
LOL Nokia fans. They are hilarious. The GS4 camera is the best camera right now in all the comparisons. The iphone 5 already beat the pants off of the Lumia 920 in daylight.
90. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
you just went too a new extreme of idiocy
''The GS4 camera is the best camera right now in all the comparisons''
you forgetting the 808, even the n8 would keep up and thats years old.
speaking of the iphone, you failed to mention the users of P.A voted the iphone 5's pics were better then the s4's........why leave that out?
96. Taters (Posts: 2104; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
Well, if I included the extreme outliers like the 808 and n8, I would have to include monstrosities like this GS4 zoom which could very well end up taking the best pictures since it is basically a camera disguised as a phone.
If you compare real phones, then yes the GS4 is the best so far.
Nokia fans are stupid and hilarious or maybe just stupid.

Taters...Change eye doctor...this one fulls you....
89. SleepingOz (Posts: 2377; Member since: 22 Oct 2011)
Every single comparison between these two device came to the same conclusion. Heck, even the GSIII was a better all rounder.
69. tashreef (Posts: 475; Member since: 24 Nov 2012)
Now the fanboys will understand what it takes to build a smartphone with best camera... Nokia 808 looks more compact and stronger than this one ...
72. mafiaprinc3 (Posts: 254; Member since: 07 May 2012)
lumia eos will make this look like a piece of garbage!
79. akki20892 (Posts: 2285; Member since: 04 Feb 2013)
one word: R U kiding me. this phone will around 600$ or 700$, then better to buy Nikon or Canon DSLR camera, take a photo then copy to our smartphone then post it on social network. or buy all in one EOS.
150. Altair (Posts: 281; Member since: 02 Feb 2012)
Shamesung "S4" zoom vs Nokia Lumia EOS! Who will win????
172. akki20892 (Posts: 2285; Member since: 04 Feb 2013)
let me guess....hmm I think eos win right.
2. FlushGordon (unregistered)
Dang it Samsung....IF only it was at least 720p :-(
9. _Bone_ (Posts: 1997; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
It's best waiting for the Lumia EOS and the Sony Honami. The latter looks like a winner with a 1080p 5" screen, SD800, Android 4.2/4.3 and a large 16MP Exmor RS sensor. Of course The Nokia may still beat it out in terms of picture quality, but likely with a heavier device with smaller, lower-res screen, same 2011 specs and Windows... either way, they should comfortable beat out the S4 Zoom camera like the S4 itself produces better picture clarity.
10. EXkurogane (Posts: 863; Member since: 07 Mar 2013)
Specs of Lumia EOS is definitely lower than Honami, since WP doesnt need that extra processing power, - instead of snapdragon 800 (the only chip that can handle up to 55MP) i think it will use lower powered processor with a dedicated image chip, something like a 2nd GPU like what was done in the 808.
But when it comes to image quality i tend to favor Nokia - Sony has let me down countless times, unless they can prove themselves wrong.
53. muhsen (Posts: 182; Member since: 07 Jun 2012)
2011 specs and low res ??? it seems that u r living under a rock since 2011...nokia lumia devices have 768p screens (not 1080p but better than 720p) and they run on snapdragon s4....maybe not the best like 600 or s4 pro but still one of the best !!!

I actually find this device to be quite good looking~
14. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 2957; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
Really??? You eyes must be smaller than mine!!!
17. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
please explain how, in what way is this good looking for a phone
its basically an average point and shoot been sold as a phone, samsung are really milking there line up
31. Jason2k13 (Posts: 470; Member since: 28 Mar 2013)
it's kinda ugly for a phone, but it looks great as your secondary camera, since its still smaller and thinner than some point and shoot camera.
4. dexter_jdr (Posts: 890; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
people will laugh at you while making a call with that phone/camera
8. EXkurogane (Posts: 863; Member since: 07 Mar 2013)
It's a new category - Phamera.
37. samystic (Posts: 187; Member since: 25 Mar 2012)
wait... that has been taken, copyrighted for life and exclusively belongs to Nokia Pureview 808... don't tell me Samsung is copying that as well
5. rusticguy (Posts: 2810; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
So this is Samsung's version of ELVIS :)

173. wurmZ (Posts: 32; Member since: 11 Jun 2013)
it looks like to me as male pelvis, you know what i mean with the zoom protruding.
7. ArtSim98 (Posts: 832; Member since: 21 Dec 2012)
No mach for the mighty EOS!
11. SonyXperiaNexus (Posts: 373; Member since: 01 Oct 2012)
forget EOS, this thing will get served by the 808 anyway.
21. MCrapp (Posts: 312; Member since: 07 Apr 2013)
Gsmarena already try them both!
18. Jason2k13 (Posts: 470; Member since: 28 Mar 2013)
if this device was just used as a camera it would look okay, but if you use it for texting and calling you would look stupid.
28. Wiki_jaan (Posts: 650; Member since: 24 Jun 2012)
dont hate it.... coz at least samsung trying to provide every thing handy.... now u dont have to carry a phone and a digital camera anywhere.... samsung just give u a choice to choose this if u want
32. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
you have to be real blind or up samsung to say this yet when nokia give you the same sort of evice but with more thought and innovation involved your kind slate it for the size etc
the days of carrying point and shoots everywhere was gone when the 808 was released, tbf most are happy with there sony xperia's, HTC ones and s3-4's on day to day. samsung arent doing this to give choice they are seeing if they have enough mindless fan to buy this half assed device
its a point and shoot with phone ability's , basically a recycled galaxy camera, there diluting there own brand becuase there becoming complacent. they think as there on top they dont need to break new ground and can just saturate the market with average devices
97. Taters (Posts: 2104; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
lol Someone has a lot of unjustified hate. Just because someone blasted the 808 for being fugly and you didn't like it, it doesn't mean Wiki Jaan over there, who likes choice, blasted it for being fugly. He could have very well welcomed the 808 with open arms back then the same way he welcomed this.
Stop trying to look butt hurt. It is pathetic because he said absolutely nothing about the 808. you brought it up dumb ass.
100. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
ohh look the HTC hating samsung humping fanboy is mouthing off again, didnt you get shut up by all those that kept proving you wrong. must be hard been made to look stupid everytime you comment
that wiki from his comments is always praising samsung for stuff he later attacks other companies for. as for your ''fugly'' part samsung seems to have took that title havent they? well answer that
your the one trying your hardest to defend samsung yet you loved taking digs at the lumia range for been thicker then other devices so take digs at this...........no not going to wonder why
116. Taters (Posts: 2104; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
lol None of the HTC and Nokia fanboys here have the intellect to prove me wrong. Where are all these times where I have been proven wrong on Phonearena? I would like to see these times...lol
You however, have been provien wrong by myself and others a countless number of times. including this one.
Your garbage about him only praising Samsung and bashing other for the same things is anything but proven. I definitely haven't noticed it. I do know that he mentioned nothing about the 808 being fugly in this context, which is the Galaxy camera, though.
If you are going to whine like a little baby and attack someone for liking something, I suggest you get something stronger than "I saw him bash other stuff in another thread." That is not a very strong argument. In fact, it is terrible. Nokia fan boys are hilarious, they get dumber by the dozen.
41. samystic (Posts: 187; Member since: 25 Mar 2012)
when Nokia did it wiht 808 people with crazy minds blasted it for being 'cubby' yueah??? this one is UGLY
67. Wiki_jaan (Posts: 650; Member since: 24 Jun 2012)
nokia 808's only camera was good....... dead OS and feature led it to failure .........
70. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
it was a niche device and people buying it knew what it offered. that dead os has all the functionality you need as well as features android fanboys brag about
the whole phone was good, it excelled in the camera department
but what you have said has nothing to do with his comment, answer why your kind arent attacking this zoom for been thick and ugly
92. SleepingOz (Posts: 2377; Member since: 22 Oct 2011)
Same can be said about this device. Niche blablabla people buying it know blablabla.. but no, dead symbian doesn't have all the functionality and features of Android. Want to see that video again?
95. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
symbian has all the functionality needed day to day, and the features android fanboys brag about i.e. customization
what are you blah blah about, you need to be clearer in your comments sammy fan. and lets play the same game with you, what are these amazing features android has that others dont that are needed day to day?
and dont bring ''replace battery'' to the list like the last fanboy did lol

I have been lucky with my Bionic and my OG DROID but i also depend on my phone to much to risk putting the "leaked" updates on. I do get drops, usually worse after major changes, like getting off a plane in a new area. Have flown 6 or so times since getting the phone. Cycling 3g/4g helped.
That said, I vaguely remember when i got my first Moto DROID that i got an invite to be a beta tester for updates. I also remember so many people said yes at the time that they had to stop accepting people. I wonder (would hope so) that they still do something like this because like previous posters have mentioned, reliance on these types of forums is flawed because people only mention the problem and not detailed info on what was happening when it happened like I find that my data drops happen most after actually using my phone AS a phone.
They (moto and verizon) do want to please the customer but do things that do just the opposite all the time. Both need to get together on expectations of an OTA before making any statements that contradict. And V needs to stop making bold (by 11-12 or now end of November) statements with unless the are willing to stand behind them. At least moto is better by giving a huge window to cover their own butt. Yeah it is upsetting but not as bad as seeing a deadline pass and a new one thrown up.

A grab from my figure drawing class a couple of weeks ago. I really do draw the model once in a while but this is way more fun… and sort of shady.
Everybody has a story. In drawing random people I often wonder what they're thinking, what troubles they may have had and what their stories may be. It's a beautiful mystery.
Drawing the other artists while they draw the model.
Lincoln is a great character to draw and looking forward to more soon.

0% of the CEO
David Millili
I have been working at Pegasus Solutions
Pros – Flexibility and innovation. Can rise up.
Cons – Volatile industry. So very unpredictable.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
I have been working at Pegasus Solutions
Pros – Pegasus Solutions is technically innovative and not caught up in the drama and politics of other companies. Pegasus allows people to be themselves without having to "act" in a certain way. There is challenging work that is fun to do and an individual has opportunity to make a difference in a positive way.
Cons – Pegasus Solutions needs to have more new people moving into Pegasus. There are a lot of people that have had long term careers there, which has stunted their technical and business growth. They are a bit heavy in management and have many directors and VPs without direct reports. Several of the directors are really glorified team leads. There may be some favoritism in the upper engineering level.
Advice to Senior Management – 1) Bring in new blood
2) Delegate manual labor to lower paid employees; you may lose talented employees because they are bored with the amount of grunt work
3) Work on synergies within the departments
4) Benefits are low in comparison to other companies
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
I worked at Pegasus Solutions
Pros – When they were open it was a pretty good company..GREAT work/life balance, flexible, casual, not very stressful, had a good manager...too bad they decided to lay of everyone for India.
Cons – Management was a bit immature.
Advice to Senior Management – Come back to America, esp. now we need the jobs!
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
I worked at Pegasus Solutions full-time
Pros – The People are great, a strong team atmosphere
Cons – Restructuring every 2 years is not a sign of progress. Should be changing with new leadership
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

One great looking whiskey, we imagine
Design Spotlight: Ryesenberg Whiskey
Unfortunately, you won't be able to find this one on the shelves of your local package store, but that doesn't mean we can't use a little imagination, right? Created by David Riesenberg (get it?), the sublime package design project features a unique concept: a removable bottle label created through a unique process of drying, pressing and silkscreening, which can then be used as a coaster. Once you've emptied the bottle of bottle of whiskey of course, which in our imagination is also a high proof.
More images of the Riesenberg work after the jump

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Nominations morning last month revealed major surprises for the Academy Awards, promising one of the most wide-open campaigns ever for Hollywood's highest honors.
Six weeks later, things have shaken out into the same old predictable Oscars.
Like almost every awards season, earlier honors have established clear favorites for the top prizes at Sunday's Oscars, where Ben Affleck's CIA thriller ''Argo'' is expected to take home the best-picture trophy.
''Argo'' has dominated the awards picture with wins at the Golden Globes and ceremonies held by the Directors Guild of America, the Screen Actors Guild and the Producers Guild of America. The film now is poised to do what only four movies have managed before at the Oscars: win best picture without a nomination for its director.
With the top trophy and other key prizes expected to go to obvious front-runners, the Oscars will live or die on the show itself, which has a hipper flair with ''Family Guy'' creator Seth MacFarlane as host and a cool lineup of current and vintage stars. Among performers, presenters and other special guests are Barbra Streisand, Norah Jones, ''Harry Potter'' star Daniel Radcliffe, key players from ''The Avengers,'' and Mark Wahlberg and his cuddly stuffed-bear sidekick from ''Ted,'' voiced by its writer-director, MacFarlane.
Adele will perform her nominated title tune from the James Bond adventure ''Skyfall,'' and the show features a salute to the 007 franchise, an appearance by Bond theme song singer Shirley Bassey, and a tribute to the resurgence of movie musicals over the last decade, which includes current best-picture contender ''Les Miserables.''
Oscar organizers are trying to inject more verve into a show whose awards generally play out by the numbers. While drama may be lacking in the outcome Sunday night, there was plenty of it early on in the Oscar race.
When nominations came out and Affleck was omitted of the best-director lineup, it seemed to doom the best-picture prospects for ''Argo.'' Likewise, the best-picture chances looked slim for Kathryn Bigelow's Osama bin Laden thriller ''Zero Dark Thirty'' and Tom Hooper's musical ''Les Miserables,'' since they also were snubbed for directing nominations.
Leading the field with 12 nominations, including one for director Steven Spielberg, the Civil War epic ''Lincoln'' suddenly looked like the best-picture favorite, almost by default. It seemed the only realistic choice among the nine nominees, given how rare it is for a film to win best picture without a directing nomination. The last time it happened — and the only time other than in the earliest years of the Oscars — was for 1989's ''Driving Miss Daisy.''
The other best-picture contenders that also had directing nominations — Michael Haneke's old-age love story ''Amour,'' Ang Lee's shipwreck saga ''Life of Pi,'' David O. Russell's oddball romance ''Silver Linings Playbook'' and Benh Zeitlin's low-budget bayou drama ''Beasts of the Southern Wild'' — were acclaimed films that all seemed like best-picture longshots.
But the crowd-pleasing ''Argo,'' Affleck's liberally Hollywood-ized chronicle of the real-life rescue of six Americans during the Iranian hostage crisis, defied expectations by sweeping other awards despite the Oscar directing snub — or perhaps partly because of it.
''There's this groundswell of support for 'Argo' that took a lot of people by surprise, and it's making me think that the omission of Ben Affleck in the best-director category was the best thing that ever happened to that movie,'' said Dave Karger, chief correspondent for movie-ticket website Fandango.com. ''All of the 'Argo' fans are going to rally behind it in that best-picture category.''
Affleck has taken a page out of fellow ''Argo'' producer and smooth operator George Clooney's playbook, handling the Oscar attention and his directing snub with grace, humility and self-deprecating humor. It's a reverse of Affleck's quarrelsome demeanor earlier in his career, when he bristled and barked over publicity centering on his relationship with Jennifer Lopez.
Rarely lauded for his performing chops, Affleck joked at the Golden Globes that no one felt he was snubbed for an acting nomination on ''Argo,'' in which he gives one of his finest performances as a CIA agent orchestrating a scheme to disguise the Americans as a Hollywood film crew scouting locations in Iran.
Earning acclaim for all three of the films he has directed, Affleck talks like a modest newcomer, saying after his Directors Guild win that he considers filmmakers such as William Wyler, Martin Scorsese and Spielberg to be the ''grown-ups I think of as directors. I think of myself as a work in progress.''
And despite the directing snub, Affleck has expressed nothing but gratitude to the academy for his film's seven nominations — repeatedly making note that he is up for an Oscar. As producers of ''Argo,'' Affleck, Clooney and Grant Heslov would share the best-picture honor if the film wins.
Assuming it does, there still will be plenty of love to spread around among other films, particularly ''Lincoln.'' Spielberg's consolation prize, should ''Lincoln'' miss out on best picture, is a probable third directing Oscar. He would be only the fourth filmmaker to achieve that, along with Frank Capra and William Wyler, who also won three times, and John Ford, who won four.
''Lincoln'' star Daniel Day-Lewis is expected to earn his third Oscar in the title role, making him only the sixth performer to win three or more Oscars and the first to win three times in the best-actor category.
Other acting favorites: Jennifer Lawrence, best actress for ''Silver Linings Playbook"; Anne Hathaway, supporting actress for ''Les Miserables"; and Tommy Lee Jones, supporting actor for ''Lincoln.''
So where's the surprise of Oscar night? Maybe in the hands of versatile show host MacFarlane, whose talents include animation, comedy writing, singing and songwriting (he's an Oscar nominee himself for a tune from ''Ted").
His skills also include crude humor, setting the stage for something livelier, more irreverent and less predictable than the usual ho-hum broadcast.
Producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron ''have mixed it up quite a lot compared to Oscar ceremonies I've seen in the past,'' MacFarlane said. ''Without it being a long ceremony — their goal is to keep it shorter than it's been — but they've managed to pack more surprises and more cool stuff into the ceremony than I think I've ever seen in any one Oscars. ...
''They have a real sense of command of what they're doing, but at the same time they've allowed me to play to my own strengths, or weaknesses, depending on how you look at it, and structure my own segments as I see fit.''

Democrats plan to demagogue income inequality and the wealth gap for political gain in this year's elections. Most of what's said about income inequality is stupid or, at best, ill-informed. Much to their disgrace, economists focusing on measures of income inequality bring little light to the issue. Let's look at it. Read More»
The first time I saw New Jersey Governor Chris Christie on television, a few years ago, my first reaction was astonishment: "A talking Republican!"
It would scarcely have been more astonishing if there had been a talking giraffe. For reasons unknown, most Republican leaders seem to pay very little attention to articulation — certainly as compared to leading Democrats, who seem to pay little attention to anything else. Read More»
For years, I blamed it on those richly royal blue suede high heel pumps. The ones with the ridiculously tall, spiked heel and absurdly pointed toe. I was 22 when I bought them, 36 when I donated them to the Salvation Army.
Those shoes had a history, one that made me smile. I was a young sports reporter on assignment at USA Today in Washington, D.C. I had a terrific blue and black wool suit that Mama had made which matched them perfectly. The first time I wore that outfit, I was covering the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas and wore it to a coaches' press conference. Read More»
As we once again celebrate a great orator, leader and inspirational figure, we must also realize there's a correct and equal way to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr.
No other holiday is named for just one person. President's Day is for all presidents, Memorial Day is for all those who died in wars, Mother's Day is for all mothers and Veterans Day is for all veterans. All of these holidays are for those regardless of religion, sex or race. (Columbus Day should be renamed Founders Day or Discovery Day and Christmas is a religious holiday). Read More»
I find it difficult to get to the substance of Ms. Willis' article when the premise seems to be that the socialist party started making promises to the Vietnamese people and then took over following the Vietnam War.
The North Vietnamese army, the military vestige of a communist totalitarian state, defeated the South Vietnamese in battle and seized control. I don't think there were any promises made by socialists to achieve this. Read More»
Global warming is over. It is a tired and trite phrase and presents a poor picture of reality.
It is time for a new paradigm: global climate change. The greenhouse effect, which traps heat in Earth's atmosphere warming the land and the oceans, is only one aspect of global climate change.
Heat-powered high and low pressure systems such as the "arctic vortex" that pulled freezing air into Fayette County recently are another.
Rising ocean levels from thermal expansion and melting ice are another. Read More»
The title of a Bob Dylan song says it well, "The Times They Are A-Changin.'"
That is very true for the county and County Commission. For those not sure of what is going on and its meaning, it bears serious examination.
How have the commissioners been elected to date? The county was divided into three geographical areas know as districts. Each of those districts produced commission candidates for one post each, specifically Posts 1 through 3. To run for those posts you had to live within the district the post represented Read More»
Late last week while having my morning coffee I listened to an interesting news item aired on NPR. It briefly reported that the Boeing Company and its machinists agreed that if Boeing manufactured its latest model aircraft in the Seattle area, the machinists would give the company significant wage and benefit concessions.

This column originally ran in April, 1996.
Not many of today's Peachtree City residents remember a time when we did not have a real police department. Our earliest policing came from the Sheriff's Office -- the county supplied a car and support; local businesses paid for a deputy. Granted, he didn't have much to do, but people felt good knowing he was out there.
Ralph Jones was mayor and Chip Conner on city council when the city began developing its own department, and by the time Chip became mayor, in 1970, we were well on our way. Read More»
After Colorado legalized recreational use of marijuana, an article appeared in the Daily Currant, a website. The article got a great deal of traction. Apparently a spoof, the article reported that 37 deaths occurred in one day from people overdosing on marijuana. The whole thing was a hoax. The deaths never occurred. Read More»

It's me. BUB. This week, on January 8th was Stephen Hawking's birthday. I feel that he and I are kindred spirits. I would love to meet him one day, but for now I have this. It's amazing. Stephen Hawking painting by: Cloë Ashton BUB by Jana Renee Ayars Mashup by my dude. Hopefully all artists are cool with that. He couldn't help himself.
