This will be the last post of Burns For America.It's been fun, but in the end, this thing is simply taking up too much of my time and not giving me enough in return. My readership has never been particularly high, and I find I'm no longer enjoying it. There just isn't much of a reason to continue. Hasn't been for a while now, actually, but I'm stubborn like that.Hope you laughed. And don't forget, come November...you can write in anybody you want!

Great news, loyal readers! We have managed to contact the Obama campaign, and his people finally agreed to show him the Burns For America website. This is a milestone in our campaign! At last, the current frontrunner for President of the United States will hear our voice, read about our cause, understand our passion. And when he does, he will have no choice but to acknowledge our great justice, drop out of the race, and endorse the Paul Burns.What's this?Breaking update: I am being told that Barack Obama has just given us his official response to the Burns Campaign! He has had a chance to review our material and has made his statement!Let's see what he says!Well, it's a start. Be sure to tune in Monday, when we will once again attempt to pass off a Current Events Sonnet as actual content!
Quick question: what do the Ohio State University, Donald Trump, and Ukraine have in common?Answer: they all understand the power of the definite article.Donald Trump is one of the most successful businessmen in the world. They call him "the Donald."OSU is the biggest university in the United States, and any Buckeye will tell you it's "the Ohio State University."Ukraine used to be the Ukraine, back when it was part of a world superpower. But that superpower status is gone now...and so is the "the."What can we learn from all this?Simple. If you're going to get anything done these days, you need a little help from the English language to make it happen.Henceforth, Paul Burns will be referred to as The Paul Burns.This will remain in effect until it starts to get annoying. I estimate approximately six hours.Be sure to tune in again tomorrow, when we'll have, like, a funny picture of Obama or something.
So I guess this is my fault; I probably should've explained this better to begin with. Well, I didn't, so I'll do it now:DISCLAIMER - YOU ARE NOT AS COOL AS PAUL BURNS. Just because he does something successfully DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN TOO.I am serious here! I've gotten reports that folks are doing things like:Slapping other folks with fish. Come on - that's only a job for the Presidential Fish Slapper.Figuring out the meaning of life. People! This has already been discovered! Paul Burns was all over it like white on West Virginia.Fighting evil. Okay, for reals on this one. Y'all need to understand. The evil? It isn't safe. And if you don't leave the evil-handling to the professionals, you might get hurt. It's, like, what they do.Fine, you say, but isn't Paul Burns a role model? Shouldn't I do my best to imitate him? If I can't fight evil, ponder philosophy, or carp-clobber somebody, what can I do?We've got you covered:List of things Paul Burns does that it is okay to imitateEatingSleepingRocking outHaving your own blogBeing awesomeRunning for President (but not this year)Playing WiiBeing kind to animalsKicking it old schoolChilling with Jessica AlbaUm I guess pointing at signs is probably okay tooIf you want to do something and it's not on this list...you should clear it with us first.This has been a public service announcement. For a blog post that's less obviously patronizing, be sure to tune in tomorrow! There will definitely be an article.
Well, folks, this is a big moment. They said it couldn't be done. They said it was impossible. They said we would kill ourselves trying. But in spite of the naysayers, the flimflammers, and the joykillers, we find ourselves nevertheless on the cusp of revolution. For we have achieved the unthinkable. We have achieved......100 posts on the Burns For America blog!What? That's completely unremarkable, you say? It's a poor sort of blog that doesn't reach 100 posts, you say? Yeah, well you know what? Forget you. We don't need you. We -Okay, come back. We need you. We need you.Because if you leave, who will remain to read our...100th Post Retrospective (on the Previous 99 Posts) (Which Fine Okay is not That Many but Whatever)Ah, it was a humble beginning, wasn't it? A simple man with a modest plan: team up with Jessica Alba to become President of the United States. And the early days were orthodox enough. Support your constituents; pick up a few endorsements; coin a catchy slogan.But it quickly became clear that this would be no ordinary campaign.Paul Burns had an uncompromising vision. What other candidate has announced plans for sprucing up the Solar System, nuking our nocturnal adversary, or getting a Wii for each and every living American citizen? Who else would dare subvert both the First and Eighth Amendments? And who but him would ever conceive of using kittens to achieve world peace?Paul Burns was a man of pristine moral character. He wasn't just against the death penalty - he had creative alternatives! He wasn't just a man of God - he pondered assuming godhood! He didn't just take a firm stance on ethical issues - he took every stance! And he was always willing to take responsibility for his actions - and redirect it elsewhere.Paul Burns had an intellect unparalleled in the history of Man. He wrote countless sonnets for the edification of voters everywhere. He was a master of mathematics and a purveyor of vocabulary. He taught us the very meaning of life itself. And for all of that, he was not too proud to belittle his fellow man.But most of all, Paul Burns was awesome. He's already planning a library with a mile-high monument to himself. He's brushing aside his competitors. He has his own Secretary of Awesome. His veep knows how to lay the smack down. And lest we forget: he named the multiverse after himself. I mean, how awesome is that?Um, no. The correct answer was "super awesome."Well, we've come a long way, but we haven't won this thing yet. Tell your family. Tell your friends. Hold rallies. Link to us on your website. And above all, come November, vote Burns.Don't worry. We'll make the next 100 posts even more awesome than the first.So you'd better be sure to tune in again tomorrow. Why, who knows what Paul Burns will talk about next?
So what is John McCain's deep dark secret? I mean, he seems like such a fine, upstanding gentleman:But you know, anyone looks good in a suit. Maybe in a different set of threads, we'd begin to see...Yeah, there we go. Black looks sort of...familiar on him, doesn't it? Like some other Senator I know of. But who?There's something...I'm not quite sure...what is...Ah, yeah, there it is. Okay. Okay, I think we're done here. Show's over! Nothing else to see, folks.Anyway...be sure to tune in again Monday, for another of those Current Events Sonnets you tolerate like so well.
Yesterday I promised that today's post would be about the greatest threat to the Paul Burns campaign. Now you've had all night to think about it, and I can only imagine what guesses you've made. Is it bin Laden? Is it "Can you smell what Barack is cooking" Obama? Could it be fear, or apathy, or Sauron, or the fact that basically nobody has heard of Paul Burns's candidacy?No, my friends, no. These are all grave threats (well, except Sauron, who was really just bitter over a bad case of pinkeye). But the one true threat is far subtler and more sinister.Brand confusion.A politician's success positively hinges on solid brand recognition. And what is a politician's brand? Why, his name, of course. A voter has to hear a name and immediately recognize the person behind it. Otherwise...very bad things can happen.Paul Burns is drowning in a sea of me-too usurpers with the audacity to copycat his all-important trademark. Take a look at this rogues' gallery of nominal plagiarists:Paul Burns the techie - Imagine the voter reaction if they learned their candidate was into something like technology. Understanding technology means you have logical analysis skills, and logical analysis skills mean that you must be, that's right, a nerd. Come, now. Do we really want a president who, midway through negotiations with Kim Jong-il, finds himself on the receiving end of an atomic wedgie?(Don't worry, President Bush. I know you're horrified by the thought of negotiating with the leaders of rogue nations. It was just a joke. In real life, nobody would actually do such a thing.)Paul Burns the soccer player - Soccer is just a long, tedious game in which almost no real points are scored, everything is decided by a dramatic play at the end, and yet the commentators sound fascinated the whole way through. Imagine if Americans associated that with politics.(Oh, that's right, England. I called it soccer, not football. What are you going to do about it?)Paul Burns the gardener - Sure, Americans care about the environment. But a candidate who's in the pocket of Big Green? That'll get weeded out by the roots at the first sign of frost.I'm really bad at gardening metaphors.Paul Burns the actor - Not that there's anything wrong with actors gettin' their Prez on, but his running-mate is an actress. Tickets are about balance. We're trying to run a country here, not peddle popcorn.Paul Burns the photographer - As we all know, photographs steal your soul. And our Paul Burns has already gone on record against any sort of supernatural shenanigans.Paul Burns the realtor - In this housing market? That's like taking an arsonist back to the ashes of his grandma's house and saying "Hey, you missed a spot, here's some napalm."Paul Burns the doctor - America needs someone who can heal its divisions...metaphorically. Come on. Nobody goes in for that "I have actual useful skills" rhetoric anymore.Don't be fooled by cheap imitation Paul Burnses! Demand genuine Burns! Set a precedent for President!Because really, come on. More than one entity named Paul Burns? That would just be...confusing.Be sure to tune in again tomorrow, when you'll learn something about John McCain that you won't find anywhere else.
We've got so many supporters now I can barely keep track of them all...luckily, you've got that handy list on the bottom of the sidebar to help you out!Anyway, my good friend Archangel shows his support. Do you know why? That's right, because he's awesome, and because he knows a winner when he sees one.Vote Burns.
I guess culture is pretty good? There are a lot of people studying it, it must be pretty good. It's not like we would waste our time studying unimportant things. So, you know, let's learn about culture.Holidays are one of the most conspicuous signs of culture, but you have to be careful. Because not all holidays are real holidays. You know what I'm talking about, right? The ones where, the first time someone asks you "Did you get a card for so-and-so" and you're like "why" and then they tell you and you're just in shock that this is an actual thing? Yeah, those. Except, you never know. Maybe you're not the one that's in shock that it's an actual thing. Maybe you're the one who sees nothing wrong with it. Maybe you are inadvertently celebrating......a fake holiday!With that in mind, here are some tips to help you tell the Hannukahs from the Hallmarks. If any of the following apply to the festivity in question...it might be a fake holiday!If the holiday was invented by the candy industry.You think I'm kidding, don't you? Nobody would listen if the corporations in charge of selling candy created a holiday where people buy candy to celebrate something that's already celebrated by another holiday. That's what you're thinking.Well, you would be wrong.If the special activity for the holiday is something you do every day anyway.Hey, I was thinking! Let's set aside one day a year...to be nice to our kids. Because that never happens.If the holiday is related to your job.Holidays are when you get off work. If you have to go to work to celebrate your holiday, you're doing it wrong. Take Our Daughters And Sons To Work Day? I'm sorry, it's your kids. At work. Does that sound like a holiday to you?Boss's Day is another good example of this phenomenon. Secretary's Day was pretty good until it became Administrative Professional's Day, which is sort of like calling up your mom and saying "Jovial Maternal Reproductive Facilitator Diurnal Period."The one exception to the job-related fake-holiday rule is Labor Day, solely because it is - with incredible irony - a day you do not actually have to go to work.If the holiday celebrates a person whose main accomplishment was doing something wrong.Hey, um, Mr. Columbus? Yeah, Asia is that way.Tell you what, give me an Einstein Day, and then we'll talk.If the holiday is a week. Or a month.Don't get me wrong. I love me some Shelley, some Poe, some Chesterton. I think it's fairly obvious that I think poetry is - as you kids say today - "the bee's knees." But to claim that April is National Poetry Month? Um, yeah, about that. It can't be National Poetry Month. It's too busy being April.Also, I don't know if National Peanut Month is a real thing, or if the peanut people are lying to us, or what, but...seriously. Come on. I mean...no.One last thing, though. If anybody tries to tell you Pi Day is a fake holiday, break their incisors with a well-thrown baseball. And then, like, check out its circumference. Because math is awesome.Be sure to tune in again tomorrow, when we will discuss the greatest threat to the Paul Burns candidacy!
If you've had the experience of being conscious (mind you, not socially conscious, just conscious) at any time in the past five years, you probably know there is this thing called global warming. We're at an exciting time; we're just past the point of "Okay, the scientists aren't all lying to us about the terabytes of evidence that global warming is actually happening" but not quite to the point of knowing what's causing it. Oh, sure, there are some kooks who say things like "Maybe the scientists with their terabytes of evidence are also not lying about the cause" but clearly such statements are part of a vast left-wing conspiracy.But if it's not our fault (and how could it be, us being so responsible and all) then whose fault is it? Some say it's just part of a natural cycle, so it's, like, nature's fault, but that sounds a little too much like some kind of New Age pagan crystal voodoo to us. If there's a natural catastrophe, it'd better be a straight-up Act Of God, thank you very much. Except that really, if God were trying to tell us something, you'd probably expect it to be a little less subtle.So, what's the cause?Well, we at the Burns Campaign are uniquely qualified to answer this question. Not because Paul Burns is master of all science (although, he is); and not because he can postulate all possible answers simultaneously (although, he can). Why, then?Well, as you may recall, Mr. Burns has a scapegoat:Yes, our candidate has generously donated the use of Jeff Fetters, his personal scapegoat, for the problem of global warming. No more partisan debates; no more scientific research grants; no more bickering or worrying. Just a single, simple answer we can all agree on.It's not our fault. It's his fault.Now don't you feel better?Be sure to tune in again tomorrow, when we will make you an expert in the art of detecting fake holidays!
What keeps you people reading these sonnet things, anyway? My current theory: masochism.Current Events Sonnet #8 in D MinorIn Iowa now, the water's gotten high,Tim Russert's gone; he will be greatly missed;Taiwan and China say it's cool to fly,You will not like Bruce Banner when he's pissed.Guantanamo gets basic human rights -Which upsets Bush, but then, he isn't here;The Taliban puts a prison in their sights,For NASA, gamma rays will soon appear.The Church of Scientology is pwned,Norwegians give the thumbs-up to the gays,Budweiser shortly may be foreign-owned,"I'm sorry" comes in interesting ways.In Arnold's state, the fires are spreading quick;Impeachment for the President won't stick.Be sure to tune in again tomorrow, when we - the Paul Burns campaign - will reveal the actual cause of global warming!
Yet another addition to our growing list of supporters (down on the sidebar there, if you haven't seen it already). Awesome!If you have a page somewhere on the Interwebs supporting Paul Burns, be sure to let us know so we can give you some love in return!
You may have heard that Jim Johnson, one of Obama's top campaign aides, has resigned.Why? Something about some kind of deal on low mortgage rates...sounded pretty boring actually. And also fake. I mean, come on - a guy gets fired for getting a better deal on his house? Makes no sense.Unless...Unless maybe, he wasn't a guy at all.Jim Johnson's shocking secret revealed:I knew it! Look at the eyes! Jim Johnson is secretly WALL-E!!For more staggeringly intellectual revelations like this one, be sure to check back on Monday, when you'll get to read this week's Current Events Sonnet.
Who is the best candidate to be President this year? The answer, as you all well know, is Paul Burns. But it may be that you're curious about the choice between Barack Obama and John McCain - out of, let's say, idle curiosity. Well, folks, there's only one way to settle this: math.Let's assign a variable to each candidate's relative worth: B for Barack Obama, J for John McCain. Now, we know that Obama stands for change in America, while McCain stands for a much lesser amount of change. So, to start with:B = δAJ = µδAA bad start for McCain. However, McCain has a whopping twenty-six years of experience in Congress, while Obama has just four:B = δA + 4eJ = µδA + 26eNow remember that Obama is for bigger government, while McCain is for smaller government (well, technically he's for government that expands at a rate not quite so staggeringly high, but let's not quibble). Thus:B = δA + 4e + GJ = µδA + 26e + gFinally, Obama's trademark appeal rests in his perceived ability to bring the two halves of this divided nation together into one. McCain, meanwhile, battles the image that he is old, out of touch, and something of a square; however, he is more popular among the followers of Christ, who is the Alpha and the Omega:B = δA + 4e + G + ½ + ½J = (µδA + 26e + g)² + α*ΩAll that remains now is to gauge the public's interest in each candidate relative to the next-best choice; that is, divide by the value of their nearest rival, Hillary Clinton:B = (δA + 4e + G + ½ + ½) / HJ = [(µδA + 26e + g)² + α*Ω] / HUh-oh...what's this?!B = ERROR DIV BY ZEROJ = ERROR DIV BY ZEROOh noes! From beyond the political grave, Hillary gets her revenge! Furious over the inscrutable arithmetic that cost her the nomination, she strikes back, dealing a devastating blow to the math of her competitors! Now we will never know who comes out on top!Fortunately, there's only one equation you need to know for this election year, and that's the absolute, undeniable perfection of Paul Burns - the man, the myth, the legend:P = ∞There you have it; the numbers don't lie. Be sure to tune in again tomorrow, when we'll tell you the real reason that Obama's advisor resigned!
There are plenty of conspiracy theories out there. Paul McCartney is secretly dead. If you've ever touched a penny, the government has your DNA on file. Israel is controlled by Jews. Sure, they sound crazy, but if you're like most people, the thought has crossed your head from time to time: could there be any truth to those Area 51 old wives' tales?No. There couldn't.And I'll tell you why. It isn't because our leader are sweet and wonderful, or because we're smart enough to see through lies. No, conspiracy theories are crap for the simple reason that our government isn't smart enough to pull off something like that.I mean, no offense, but let's be honest here - we're talking about a government whose idea of invasion is dropping a few men onto a shoreline in enemy territory and shouting "¡Ándale! ¡Ándale!" - a government that's spent over half a billion dollars on a visitors' center - a government in which a state house of representatives agreed unanimously that pi was precisely 3.2. Folks, forget about CIA cover-ups; these guys are struggling with basic geometry.But not to worry! Though the current administration is far too inept to pull off a vast right-wing conspiracy, be assured that when Paul Burns takes office, he will immediately enact a conspiracy so enormous, so far-reaching, so staggeringly complex, that it will blow your mind. (Literally. If you find out about it, we have to kill you.)Trust me. Our Secretary of F***ing Awesome has plenty of experience with this sort of thing.So, vote for Paul Burns. And a year or two from now, when you're sitting in your easy chair, watching Celebrity Jeopardy and snacking on Snickerdoodles, and all of a sudden you get a feeling like nothing in the world is wrong...yeah. That's when you'll know. The Matrix is real, and the Architect...is Paul Burns.In the meantime, be sure to check in tomorrow, when we'll be working out a little basic math of our own!
It's time once again for us to deliver to you the events of the past week...via literature!Current Events Sonnet #7 in D MinorA legend in the world of sports has diedAnd likewise in the world of rock 'n' rollThe Red Wings have good reason for their prideThe crazy price of oil takes its toll.We hope the Martian lander isn't brokeA nuclear weapons mix-up; Gates is pissedThe dumbass terrorists can't take a jokeThe dumbass Burmese leaders still exist.We've redefined "ironic," by the way(Somehow I doubt that Kim Jong-il will care)And Clinton said what we all knew she'd sayNot that it's going to get her anywhere.Meanwhile, Obama's ready for McCain -Of course, he's got a few things to explain.See, there? You became an informed voter, and you didn't even have to go to Wikipedia!Be sure to tune in again tomorrow, when the Burns campaign will shed light on the unholy powers of soy.

FINAL PREDICTIONS FOR THE 83RD ACADEMY AWARDS! ! ! ! ! | The Final Oscar
FINAL PREDICTIONS FOR THE 83RD ACADEMY AWARDS! ! ! ! !
Posted on February 25, 2011 by Juan Carlos Ojano
Here is my full predictions together with my notes on their chances. Here it is:
Green – Frontrunners
Red – Potential Spoilers
Pink – Still Has A Chance
Blue – No Chance of Winning
My Prediction: The King’s Speech – If the three guilds really is a big deal to them, then they would give it to The King’s Speech. It’s a toss.
Major Spoiler: The Social Network – Even if its chances were somewhat lessened by the unexpected success of The King’s Speech, I still believe the precursors and stronger critical support will make it get the gold.
3rd: True Grit – With the shocking support that it had, I should say it still has a run for the gold.
4th: The Fighter – It has all the vital nominations so it may spoil.
5th: Black Swan – After the nominations, I could say we had so much expectations with this in terms of the number of nominations. But who could say? The movie’s a magnet.
6th: Inception – Without the Best Director omission (which I hate!), I can safely say that it will remain in the 6th place, no matter what happens. What’s wrong with the Academy? Do you simply hate Nolan?
7th: The Kids Are All Right – With its topic (which is really relevant), I’m sure there will be some # 1 votes for it.
8th: Toy Story 3 – It has sure supporters! It’s collecting bunch of fans since 1995 and yet, the animation bias is still true.
9th: 127 Hours – Alright. They don’t love Danny Boyle as much as they loved him in Slumdog, but there are already sure votes for it, at least some # 1.
10th: Winter’s Bone – A very few # 1 for it. Maybe almost none, but they surely liked it.
My Prediction: David Fincher (The Social Network) – As I am shaky with TSN getting best picture,I believe it will get this. . . . .
Major Spoiler: Tom Hooper (The King’s Speech) – . . . unless TKS really sweeps.
3rd: Darren Aronofsky (Black Swan) – There will be a lot of # 1 votes here. Could get in if the first two are too strong.
4th: Coen Brothers (True Grit) – As long as they make movies, the Academy-based fanbase of the brothers will always be there for him.
5th: David O. Russell (The Fighter) – There wasn’t just much passion for it.
Frontrunner: Colin Firth (The King’s Speech) – He lost last year. He’s in a frontrunner. He’s getting the awards. Sure win.
Major Spoiler: James Franco (127 Hours) – He still can make it unless . . .
3rd: Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network) – . . . the vote for the Youngsters’ award split. Plus: he’s in a frontrunner.
4th: Jeff Bridges (True Grit) – He’ll lose, but the afterglow may either help or damage the support that he has.
5th: Javier Bardem (Biutiful) – He has his peers. But he hasn’t been showing o strong last awards season. So, be happy with your nom.
Frontrunner: Natalie Portman (Black Swan) – Strong film. Precursors. Pregnant. Physicality. Sure win.
Major Spoiler: Annette Bening (The Kids Are All Right) – If they still think they owe her the Oscar now, then they may.
3rd: Jennifer Lawrence (Winter’s Bone) – BP nominee. Young (but it doesn’t hurt). Upcoming actress. Some votes are ensured.
4th: Michelle Williams (Blue Valentine) – Hasn’t won yet. Solely represents the secret love of the Academy for the film. Great campaigning.
5th: Nicole Kidman (Rabbit Hole) – She won already. Support wasn’t so hot. May have very few # 1 votes.
Frontrunner: Christian Bale (The Fighter) – Extreme physicality. Actor who is very dedicated. Defined as co-lead. All leading to a win.
Major Spoiler: Geoffrey Rush (The King’s Speech) – The film may just easily sweep its nominations.
3rd: Jeremy Renner (The Town) – Well, the afterglow worked for him. The results wouldn’t be enough, but there still is.
4th: Mark Ruffalo (The Kids Are All Right) – Overdue. Somewhat strong film. Votes are ensured.
5th: John Hawkes (Winter’s Bone) – Small film, but expected to pull some # 1, especially with the actors.
Frontrunner: Melissa Leo (The Fighter) – She’s been getting all of the important awards. Maybe her self-indulgent ads made a slight damage, but still.
Major Spoiler: Amy Adams (The Fighter) – If they hated those ads. . . . .
3rd: Helena Bonham-Carter (The King’s Speech) – Frontrunner. Film can sweep. It can advantage of the splitting of votes that can happen with the first two.
4th: Hailee Steinfeld (True Grit) – Oscars doesn’t necessarily buy category frauds for the win. But such a strong film.
5th: Jacki Weaver (Animal Kingdom) – Bloggers’ support can naturally affect the votes. Maybe few # 1, but there will be, I’m sure.
Frontrunner: The King’s Speech – It’s in a frontrunning film. Since its major competitor (TSN) isn’t here, it looks like this will get it if a sweep is decided.
Major Spoiler: Inception – Thy ignored Nolan in director, so this is the best place to pay Nolan. It won the WGA (TKS’s ineligible) and some precursors.
3rd: The Kids Are All Right – Indie sleepers mostly get this when they are able to get in here (Sideways, Crash, Little Miss Sunshine, Juno, etc.).
4th: The Fighter – People are not so passionate about this, but some really love this. It could do the magic.
5th: Another Year – The only nominee that is not a BP nominee. Almost impossible to win.
Frontrunner: The Social Network – In a frontrunner film, I’m sure it would get it given that its other nominations are not completely safe. This is locked.
Major Spoiler: True Grit – Well, they’re the Coen brothers. They can still get it given that the film had a surprising strong support from the Academy.
3rd: Toy Story 3 – They love the series even if they won’t tell us. And this is another place to reward it if they loved it more.
4th: 127 Hours – I guess it wasn’t really much of a scripted film, but that’s what other people also say about Slumdog and it won.
5th: Winter’s Bone – Same as 127 Hours, it wasn’t much of a scripted film. But support for it is still undeniably existent.
Frontrunner: Inception – It surprisingly got the ASC, so it’s in the lead now.
Major Spoiler: Black Swan – Another frontrunner given the support for the film.
3rd: True Grit – Cinematography in Coen’s films always have support.
4th: The King’s Speech – If they decided for a sweep, then it’s with it.
5th: The Social Network – Another one – if it will have a sweep, then include this.
Frontrunner: The Social Network – It has the ACE, and this really looks like a safe win for the film.
Major Spoiler: The King’s Speech – Given that it is also a frontrunner, it could sweep or simply get this.
3rd: Black Swan – If they go gaga for the film, then it’s a win for it.
4th: The Fighter – Conceived as a potential spoiler, it could possibly get it.
5th: 127 Hours – They loved the style in 2008, but lacking passion for the movie signals that this will not get the award.
Frontrunner: Inception – I suspect the love for this film will show up here.
Major Spoiler: True Grit – The only other nominee which is also nominated for Sound Editing. Coen’s movies always sound great.
3rd: The Social Network – It’s a strong movie that can get also this.
4th: The King’s Speech – Sweep alert!
5th: Salt – Sound sgreat, but the only non-BP nominee in a BP-filled category?
Frontrunner: Inception – Same as with the Sond Mixing.
Major Spoiler: True Grit – It has a chance, though slim.
3rd: Toy Story 3 – If they want to give this movie more than one trophy, than this could happen.
4th: TRON: Legacy – This looks like more of a techy film but this won’t happen.
5th: Unstoppable – This will not happen.
Frontrunner: Inception – Just guessing. I dunno what’s happening. It looks like a three-way tight race.
Major Spoiler: The Social Network – If the film would sweep, it would get this.
3rd: The King’s Speech – Another sweeper!
4th: 127 Hours – It wouldn’t get the award even if it’s a BP nominee. No chance.
5th: How to Train Your Dragon – Only non-BP nominee. No chance.
Frontrunner: Inception – It would get this.
Major Spoiler: Alice in Wonderland – The support for this film can be seen in its number of noms, so it could happen.
3rd: Hereafter – Though the only “visual masterpiece” of the film is the tsunami sequence, it could still do magic given that it’s a Clint Eastwood film.
4th: Iron Man 2 – Sequel disadvantage for a populist movie CASE # 1.
5th: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 – Sequel disadvantage for a populist movie CASE # 2.
Frontrunner: The Wolfman – Even if the film was received poorly, the make-up is what the academy usually wants.
Major Spoiler: The Way Back – A possibility given that there are a lot of people to be made up with make-up.
3rd: Barney’s Version – The last is also a major contender because the Academy loves aging.
Frontrunner: The King’s Speech – The only movie here that is predicted to sweep the awards. This could help given that the film is a frontrunner.
Major Spoiler: True Grit – If I’m not mistaken, the designer of the film is overdue. And the film showed up strongly.
3rd: Alice in Wonderland – If not in visual effects, possibly here.
4th: I Am Love – Remember Bright Star? Bloggers’ support frequently show up here! And they love Tilda secretly.
5th: The Tempest – Poor reception, awkward costumes, Helen Mirren. Mixed chances are sure.
Frontrunner: The King’s Speech – Sweep alert!
Major Spoiler: Inception – The technical support for the film seems strong, so it’s possible.
3rd: Alice in Wonderland – Again, it could happen.
4th: True Grit – Because it showed up well, it could happen as well.
5th: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 – They won’t reward the film series yet (there is still Part 2)!
Frontrunner: I See the Light (Tangled) – They only pushed for one song for the film, and the love for the film (not in Animate Feature) can show up here.
Major Spoiler: We Belong Together (Toy Story 3) – If they would want to give TS3 more than one nominee, than this will be it.
3rd: If I Rise (127 Hours) – If a need for the film to be given an award rises, this will be it.
4th: Coming Home (Country Strong) – So they actually cared for this?
Frontunner: Toy Story 3 – Sealed.
Major Spoiler: How to Train Your Dragon – If there is any chance that they wouldn’t want to reward the whole trilogy, then they may settle for this. But that will happen if they haven’t seen the trilogy.
3rd: The Illusionist – Unlike Persepolis where it had a chance, it’s fighting with a BP nominee and a strong Dreamworks movie, so no chance.
So, what are your predictions? Drop in you comments and let’s see who gets the predictions right on the Big Night! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 I’m excited!

If you’re in the Chicago area and want to watch the Oscars with movie critic Richard Roeper and share your thoughts (and not just write a blog or tweet about it), he’s gonna be watching the Oscars at one of Chicago’s bar & grill restaurants. Maybe aspiring critics, writers, and anyone who wants to get into the industry can have a little chat with him about their aspirations? There’s more info here http://bit.ly/gnlKOz. Sorta unrelated, but amazingly I haven’t seen The Social Network or Black Swan yet. I know, I know, I’m weird and late haha. Can’t wait to watch the Oscars tomorrow though!

Hmmm, I have a completely different take on Supporting Actress 🙂 Both Melissa and Helena are front-runners imo, with Hailee as a spoiler, and no chance for Amy Adams or Jacki W. I’d be happy with any of the wins, except for Hailee 🙂

I believe there is really no certainty in many of the categories. It’s a very mixed category, and I really love to see surprises. Maybe one of us would get it right!

This was an incredible year for the Oscars. I loved Black Swan, The Fighter, The King’s Speech, The Social Network, True Grit, Inception, Toy Story 3, and 127 Hours. I absolutely hated The Kids Are Alright. Winter’s Bone is totally overrated, too. But, the other 8 nominees were amazingly strong. Better than the last few years, in my opinion. The King’s Speech deserved Best Pic, although Black Swan and Social Network were a close second.

My top Buffy episodes, season one - Sum Res Cogitans
22 July 2006 @ 04:03 am
My top Buffy episodes, season one
A slight case of insomnia...
I have often thought about my favourite Buffy episodes, and I always go for the 'fun' episodes - generally the ones that have some kind of genre-bending twist to them. Anyway, whilst in the later seasons this is less true, these sorts of episodes tend to not do much to advance the plot. So, here I have begun to compile a list of what I think are the best 'fun' episodes and the best of the more serious 'plot' episodes in each season. If you disagree, or agree, with any of these, feel free to let me know.
The Pack: The first of many episodes in which we see one of our principal cast members put on an alternate personality. The animalistic qualities that Xander and the others take on are verging on the silly, but it's a lot of fun. This episode also gets big points for pushing some major boundaries, and showing us that this show wasn't going to pull any punches when it comes to killing off (apparently) major characters. So, a partial credit in the 'plot' column, as well.
Nightmares: I love the kind of episode in which fantasies or, more frequently in the Buffyverse, fears are brought to life. It is a great way of exploring the characters' psyches and to have fun doing so. Anyway, knife-wielding clown - need I say more?
Honourable mentions to 'The Puppet Show' and 'Out of Mind, Out of Sight'.
Angel: The biggest problem with this episode, in hindsight, is that Darla is killed off both too soon and too cheaply. We don't get enough insight into how significant an act it is for a vampire to kill its sire. Although, to be fair, that is explored a lot more in later episodes of both Buffy and Angel. Anyway, this episode is vital to the Buffyverse, obviously, because it sets up Angel's entire backstory which is key to season two and three of Buffy, and of course for the spin-off. It's a pity that at this point they are doing a lot of telling instead of showing, but the gorgeous period scenes of the later seasons would have been impossible on season one's barebones budget.
Prophecy Girl: It's funny watching season one over again, because The Master is such a weak villain, and has such power over Buffy. That shows good character development, I think, because season seven Buffy would have torn The Master a new one in a heartbeat. Anyway, this episode features the first time we see Buffy save the world (unless you count The Harvest), albeit from the lamest puppet monsters since early Dr Who. Also, Joss Whedon was clever enough to make sure that Buffy noticed the broken table, and deliberately pushed The Master onto it - there's no Deus Ex Machina here.
Honourable mention to 'Welcome to the Hellmouth' - it does a good job of presenting the massive pile of exposition without boring those who saw the film, and without confusing those who didn't.

I have much love for Nightmares, we learn a lot about the characters and their fears & strengths... and we get to see Xander punch a clown. gold

(or at least A pumpkin - thanks to tradition-keeper-Ross) and then did chili and cornbread before launching the mayhem that was huge-group-trick-or-treating-in-a-neighborhood-with-no-streetlights-or sidewalks. We were joined by the Smiths, Lamms, Terry's, and both Homecs, we hit our stride, made a loop, got tons of loot, and ended with dessert at our house. Somehow the stars aligned and all of the kids were so occupied by their candy and the trampoline in the dark, that we actually got MINUTES on end of grown up time. It's the little things, you know?
Funny how I think I'd written off Halloween at like 14. But then I had kids and it was reborn. There's just something pretty special about seeing the joy on their faces with every drop in their candy bucket. They have this way you know? They make everything a little harder, but a lot sweeter. Overall, I'm thinking it's a good deal.
Oh and because I think I want to be done with Halloween blogging... (well unless I get the pictures back from kodi's camera and there are any good ones of my girls in costume since I couldn't manage to snap a photo before the sun went down and I have no pop-up flash)... here are the ones from preschool on the day of the carnival.
Mila dressed up as Belle just to wear something easy, but if you haven't been able to figure it out, both of my girls were peacocks, also know as colorful birds. It was the only thing Sophia would tell me she wanted to be every time I asked (a colorful bird that is)... so I went with it. We tried to mimic the PB one-- but secretly, I thought mine would be way cuter. I forgot that I'm not really crafty and that the felt feathers I made would have to be secured to the tutu. When the fabric glue didn't work, I resorted to staples... which... resulted in random feathers decorating the streets. Oh well. At least I got a really great photo first so all my hard work wasn't for nothing. Oh wait....
My little Mia was a peacock too =)
Great pictures. I am trying to help my brother enter the blogging world. How do I tell him how to make the photo collages like you have got here? You seem to have got it down.

To answer Deven's question on my last post, they took their trash down... it took them two days to get rid of two bags... and now there's more crap there! Yay! One garbage bag and a box full of hoses or something. I don't know. They were also up and loud until after 4 am this morning. Rock on... that's my favorite.
So really how stupid have people become? He's a good story.
So I got some new neighbors. They have been nothing but a problem. For those of you who don't know, I live in a house that was turned into apartments. There are four apartments in the house. Two are upstairs (one being mine) and two are downstairs. My new neighbors are in the other upstairs apartment.
This is how the outside of my place is set up: THe stairs go straight up, and the first door is my door. Then there's a little walkway/porch/landing. Then you walk about three feet and there is the other door.
My new neighbors have had their trash outside their door on the landing for over a week. This disgusts me. Not only is this gross, but WE HAVE TRASH SERVICE. Its literally a walk down the stairs and a 40 foot walk to take trash to the trash can.
So Last night, my disgust had reached a new level, and I left a note on their door saying something like this: "You need to take care of your trash. T…

Highlights from Our Trip to Las Vegas Market – Beautiful home inspirations

Highlights from Our Trip to Las Vegas Market
Last week we had the chance to attend Las Vegas Market, a huge trade show—we’re talking three buildings, at least ten floors each—filled with furniture and home decor from thousands of designers. We spent days browsing the showrooms, ooo-ing and aw-ing over the most beautiful furniture and accessories, and searching for the perfect items to bring to Belle Escape.
We absolutely loved the gorgeousness that we saw in the showrooms, and we occasionally stopped to enjoy a luxurious sofa or two.
Now that we’re back, we want to share with you some of our favorite trends that we spotted:
Hand-painted chests and tables, perfect for French country and cottage homes.
Weathered chests and tables, ideal for achieving the coastal look.
Louis reproductions in beautiful shabby finishes. We love all things French shabby!
Scripted French chairs and matching pillows. We also adore the decorative nail head trim on this chair.
Mirrored tables…quite glamorous!
Pops of lime green! So bright and refreshing!
We are thrilled to have spotted so many gems, and we can’t wait to bring them to you in our online boutique!

What vendor booth is the top picture…I love the picture on the mantle of the Tree with the Moth & Butterfly. Beautiful. Will you be carrying any of those on your website?
Hi Kisten, We are adding new products each week that we discovered at the Las Vegas Furniture Market. That particular booth reps many different lines and we’re working on adding some of them to Belle Escape! We’ll keep you posted on that picture. Thanks!

Ursa Major | Fairy Tail Fanon Wiki | Fandom
Leengard Ustan, Mage, Male,
Ursa Major is the property of Leengard. Please refrain from editing this page without my permission (unless stated otherwise).
Ursa Major (おおぐま座, Ōguma-za) aka The Greater Bear, a Celestial Spirit, is another of the many Silver Keys of Celestial Spirit Magic and is currently owned by Caley Dullahan.
Ursa Major's Human appearance
Ursa Major's usual appearance is that of a large Grizzly Bear, standing roughly 12 feet in height. Ursa Major also has the ability to transform into a more humanoid appearance. In this form he has grey hair, a blue eye, the left eye being covered by an eye-patch and he wears what appears to be similar to the clothing of Native Americans.
He doesn't speak, in either form, and usually communicates through grunts and growls, that Caley seems to be capable of understanding. As a bear he is fierce in battle, aiming to quickly overpower and defeat the opponents. When in his human form his fighting style is similar, though he shows more strategy and thought put into his fighting.
He is loyal to Caley, as most Celestial Spirits are to their owners, and will violently attack anyone who threatens her infront of him. Part of his contract with Caley involves looking for the key to Ursa Minor, and Caley was more than willing to agree to help.
Earth Magic: Ursa Major's main magic, used for offensive attacks, or creating walls to trap his opponents so they cannot run away.
Ursa Major transforming
Alioth's Crushing Claw: Ursa Major covers his arm in granite and other tough and strong rocks and slashes the opponent.
Bear-Baiting Wall (クマ苦しま壁, Kuma Kurushima Kabe): Ursa Major creates a round wall around the target, preventing them from going anywhere but back towards him.
Transformation: Ursa Major uses this magic to take on his human form, and he can partially change back into his bear form from his human appearance, leading some to think that Ursa Major's magic is actually Take Over.
Extreme Strength: Ursa Major, being a bear already has more strength than the average Celestial Spirit, but he is even stronger than would be expected.
Immortality: Being a Celestial Spirit Ursa Major cannot die unless he is forced to stay in Earth Land for too long.
Ursa Major's normal appearance is that of Kuma from the Tekken fighting games
Ursa Major's human appearance is that of Senri from +Anima
Alioth's Crushing Claw is named after the brightest star in the constellation of Ursa Major
Bear-Baiting Wall is named after the blood-sport of worrying and tormenting (baiting) bears

Scottish employment continues to rise - BBC News
Employment and unemployment figures both rose in the three months to September
The number of Scots in work has climbed again while unemployment has also risen slightly, according to the latest official figures. Employment in Scotland increased by 16,000 over the three months to September, following a sharp rise in the previous set of figures. Unemployment also increased by 1,000, to stand at 199,000. The Scottish jobless rate is now 7.2%, which is below the average of 7.6% for the whole of the UK. The UK jobless total fell by 48,000 to 2.47 million between July and September.
Office for National Statistics (ONS) data showed the number of people in work in Scotland now stands at 2,547,000.The number of people claiming Job Seeker's Allowance (JSA) fell by 2,800 from September to 118,900 in October - 21,400 down on the figure for October 2012. 'Encouraging news'Scottish Secretary Alistair Carmichael said: "Today's figures show encouraging news for Scotland. "The number of Scots claiming Jobseeker's Allowance has fallen by 21,400 over the past year and is now at its lowest level in over four-and-a-half years. That should be welcomed. "Employment in Scotland has also increased by 75,000 over the last 12 months and has risen by a total of 111,000 under this government."The small increase in unemployment over the last three months, and the recent events at Grangemouth and at the shipyards on the Clyde, are stark reminders there can be no let-up in our efforts to stabilise the economy and secure jobs for the future."The Scottish government said Scotland was outperforming the rest of the UK as a whole, with a higher employment rate and lower unemployment rate than England, Wales or Northern Ireland.'Consistent growth'Finance Secretary John Swinney said: "This is the 10th monthly release in a row to show continued improvement in employment rates as we support more people into work."This consistent growth in employment shows that the policies of the Scottish government to create jobs and boost the economy are making progress. "Unemployment rates have fallen over the past year and the number of people claiming Job Seeker's Allowance has fallen to its lowest level since February 2009."Youth unemployment remains a challenge, however our youth employment rate is ahead of the UK as a whole, with the number of young people in employment continuing to rise."Scottish Labour's finance spokesman, Iain Gray, said more people in work was always welcome but the latest figures were "still well below the levels before the recession". He commented: "With more people now out of work overall it shows that the much vaunted signs of economic recovery are producing minimal improvements and the market is stagnating. "Again we have more women without work and John Swinney needs to look behind the headlines and identify ways to stop the figures increasing even further."'Encouraging' figuresThe Federation of Small Businesses welcomed the latest figures.Scottish policy convener Andy Willox said: "That there are another 16,000 Scots in work is certainly encouraging. "With business confidence continuing to rise and more firms looking to invest, this is another sign that a sustained recovery could be under way. "But it is by no means guaranteed. We must stay focused on creating the conditions which allow small businesses to do what they do best: spot opportunities, serve their communities, contribute revenues and create jobs."

CHENNAI: Hero Electronix on Tuesday announced the acquisition of the analog design business of Bengaluru-based AnalogSemi (Analog Semiconductors Pvt. Ltd.), through Tessolve, a Hero Electronix venture.
Nikhil Rajpal, CEO, Hero Electronix, said, “We are building Tessolve into the largest semiconductor engineering services player in the world. This is the fourth acquisition in the past 18 months since our inception.

Wedding Jeannie Blog: Venue Spotlight - Ebell Club of Long Beach
Venue Spotlight - Ebell Club of Long Beach
Situated in the Art District of Long Beach, sits a historical venue. It's one of Southern California's premiere wedding venues. The Ebell Club of Long Beach, is a venue that is dear to my heart. Recently I asked Liz Palmer, the venue manager to tell me what makes The Ebell so special. Not only does Liz manage the venue, she was married there herself. That should tell you alot. Here is what Liz told me about this very special property.
The Clubhouse, built in 1924 is the largest example of Spanish Renaissance architecture in the City, a style that was popular among the period revival styles of the 1920’s. The cast stone decoration around the doorways is spectacular, very rich and ornamental. Filled with figurative, imaginary and foliate ornament, the doorways extend up the wall from the door entrances. Most of the Spanish Renaissance Revival buildings in the City have been demolished over time, making the Ebell club the best example of this style now remaining in Long Beach.
The building was severely damaged in an earthquake that ravaged the City of Long Beach on March 10, 1933. The rededication on December 4, 1933 found the Courtyard covered with skylights where it had been previously open air. A center fountain was not replaced.
Renovated in 2003, a beautiful fountain that mimics the one previously destroyed in the 1933 earthquake was recreated to create a beautiful focal point to its interior Courtyard. To date, the Ebell Club women still operate inside the club and the club has been commemorated with a Historic Landmark Designation.
How many guests can you accommodate? We can accommodate up to 200 for buffet meal, 158 if a sit-down.
Do you provide In-House Catering?
Our exclusive caterer, Jay’s A Fine Cuisine and Special Event Company and their award winning staff will create a menu that is a reflection of your event’s style and theme. As one of the largest and most established full-service catering and special event companies in Southern California, you will be amazed with their culinary creations.
Is parking provided on-site?
We use an off-site parking lot to shuttle guests to and from the venue. The parking lot is nearby, well-lit and secure. It’s proximity to the freeway is ideal.
Do you book more than one event per day? How will that affect my event?
No, we only hold one event at a time.
What is your favorite feature of your venue? Our favorite feature is hard to narrow to just one. If we must, then it would be the overall architecture of the building. The Spanish style columns and courtyard create an outdoor feel with old-world charm.
Give us the top three reasons why couples should book your venue for their wedding/reception.
1. We are a hidden Gem-We are am amazing venue that is tucked away on a quiet street. When people find us they feel that they have discovered something different and unique. Guests are awe-inspired by the building and the romantic atmosphere.
2. Service. Service. Service.-At The Ebell Club, we pride ourselves on our service. Our Event Director’s goal is to ensure that every guests walks away from an event stating that it is the best wedding they have been too and that is a lot to live up to. Our staff work to ensure that your event is just as you imagined and then some!
3. We are a Historic Southern California Landmark. We are a building rich in history for both women and our great city, Long Beach.

Bisou BonBon: bespoke: rice paper and stripes
Our Eté precursor soaps have been getting alot of attention lately. As they do not have a permanent skin, as do Hiver and Printemps, this gave us liberty to get creative with the soap wraps! Personally, soap wrapping is our favourite part of the process. It's just magnificent to watch a bar of soap transform into an item of luxury (or so we'd like to think), a token of affection.. a gift. We had particular fun with this custom order. It was for an intimate party that was Geisha-themed. There is just something so subtly seducing and fragile about rice paper. With Eté being a 'lurrrve' soap, it is only appropriate that it gets dressed in such delicate wear. This was a custom order of Printemps. It was for a gentleman's club member . He was putting a kit together for a couple of friends as party favours. Inspired by Thomas Pink, we dressed them up to the nines in stripes. And my don't they look dapper?

An ex-cop finds himself on the outs with both sides of the law in this drama. Tom Coletti (Frank Vincent) is a former police officer whose addiction to alcohol cost him his career and his marriage. Hoping to regain his self-respect and the love of his daughter Diane (Gloria Darpino), Tom gets a new job overseeing the destruction of corporate bonds issued on a New Jersey bank. Tom can use some money, and Diane is desperate to get away from her abusive husband, so Tom comes up with the idea of pocketing a small number of the bonds before they're burned and having a friend from the neighborhood sell them to an interested buyer. However, when members of the local syndicate get wind of this, they're angry that they haven't been given a share of the action, and Tom's middleman winds up dead. Tom is now targeted both by the customer who wanted the bonds and the angry mobsters and must turn to his former partner Jimmy (Gian DiDonna) for protection. Also known as Paperblood, West New York marked the feature debut for director Phil Gallo; he also wrote the screenplay, edited the film, and composed the original score. Mark Deming, Rovi Read Less
