Scratch that. Let me SHOW YOU...Each year we try to do a team "thing" for Halloween. For example, last year we went as a set of dominoes. So this year my good pal Wendy thought that superlatives would be a cool idea.From left to right:Joanne was "Most Likely To Eat Your Chocolate"Sam was "Most Likely To Run A Marathon"Audrey was the "Class Nerd"Liz was "Most Artistic"Wendy
First of all, AWESOME. Secondly, lots of folks are picking apart the trailer and looking at some serious nuance. But you don't have to dive too deeply for the good stuff:The first live-action Star Wars series will take place a few years after Return of the Jedi. Whoever the Mandalorian is under his mask, he’s no friend of the Empire. The trailer shows the Mandalorian methodically
Last month at the 2019 National Conference of the National Association for College Admission Counseling (aka, "NACAC"), the body voted to amend its Code of Ethics and Principles of Practice (CEPP) in response to the Department of Justice's investigation (I previously teed'up the topic here). So, what does it all mean? Here's the background. The CEPP formerly stated:Colleges
So, I woke up with aches and a sore throat. I haven't taken a sick day from work in probably two years. Rarely do I get the opportunity to just kick it on the couch with nobody else except for the doggo. Today, that's just what I'm doing. In addition to playing around on the Series of Tubes, I decided to play some Fortnite and, lo and behold!, I set some new personal records.
Nevermind that I love Adam Driver's work - this Amazon Prime film looks excellent: FBI agent Daniel Jones performs an exhaustive investigation into the CIA's use of torture on suspected terrorists. In the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, the CIA adopted new interrogation techniques.The political drama debuts on November 15th. With Disney Plus starting a couple of days before
Yesterday we hosted our semi-annual gathering of high school counselors at Penn State - something that we call the Counselor Advisory Group. The purpose of the organization is to maintain a dialogue with our strong partners and collaborators on the secondary school side of the desk.We had a great conversation that spanned everything from the "personality" of the Class of 2020
Dude. Although, /Film asks some good questions: As is the case with all new Star Wars movies pre-release, there are more questions than answers about The Rise of Skywalker. Is the Emperor really back? Will this story retcon the details about Rey’s parents that we learned in The Last Jedi? Is Rey going to the Dark Side? Will Rey and Kylo finally stop fighting and start smooching,
source: MovieWeb.comVia Screenrant (who got it from an interview with Empire magazine): I don’t see them. I tried, you know? But that’s not cinema. Honestly, the closest I can think of them, as well made as they are, with actors doing the best they can under the circumstances, is theme parks. It isn’t the cinema of human beings trying to convey emotional, psychological experiences
A colleague texted me a link to this clip from a recent CBS News story entitled "The Price You Pay: The Spiraling Cost of College". I'm embedding the segment below, starting at the 1:10 mark (but feel free to watch in its entirety). Check it:I have to take issue with one key thing in this report; the host picked seemingly random spots on College Avenue to "survey" Penn State
So, I got the chance to play for a bit last night and, while I hate the fact that I don't know where I'm going on the new island, the gameplay is MUCH improved. The screenshot above is a couple of minutes before I took a 3rd place with 8 eliminations (for reference, I average two or three per game). After that game I took a silver medal in a match where I had seven kills.This
Dark. Funny. And I think that David Harbour makes a great Oscar The Grouch.
Beginning with tests in September of next year, the ACT has committed to offering three new features:1.

Give me a Guy Ritchie heist film and I'm a happy camper! Loved Snatch. Loved all of the Robert Downey, Jr. Sherlock Holmes movies. There are few Guy-Ritchie-directed films that I don't like. Plus, you throw some Matthew McConaughey and Colin Farrell and I'm hooked!
