...broader contours, Cloverfield evokes real-life horror. The Wall Street area already had its monster mash, on 9/11. So there's no way you can watch downtown panic and crumbling towers without it seeming a bit... familiar. Naturally the director says, he didn't want to diminish or exploit the residue of grief from 9/11. And, as the press notes inform us, "The visual effects teams even took care that the collapsing buildings in the film were older-looking structures that did not evoke the style of the structures that were attacked six years earlier."

...defeat them or chase them back to their caves, or, in other words, get rid of them.” Islam is not antithetical to all things American.

...This is an advantage that Huckabee desperately needs to exploit, since his ground organization in Iowa pales in comparison to his rivals. He boasts a paid Iowa staff of just 14, up from eight at the start of November. By contrast, Republican Mitt Romney, who comes in second in most polls, has 17 full-time Iowa staffers, and another 60 part-time organizers who have been in place for months.

...accidents can happen,” told an Attleboro school principal to the Boston Globe in defense of her decision to ban tag and touch football. That much is obvious—the point, of course, is that accidents should be treated as such, and not as excuses to exploit well-intentioned schools to the full extent of the law. Yet, the problem cannot be blamed on unreasonable parents alone.
