...dissenting vote. They blocked it because Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid refused to let them bog down the floor debate with scores of unrelated amendments designed to box Democrats into uncomfortable votes on issues like immigration and the alternative minimum tax. Most Senate Republicans like the farm bill just fine - Richard Lugar of Indiana is an honorable exception - but not as much as they like attacking the do-nothing Democratic Congress. They needed 40 votes to block Reid's effort to shut off debate, and they got 42, so Reid yanked the bill...
...kids aren't likely to parse the fine points of the script's psychology. They and their parents will be wowed by the battle scenes, a nifty sea-monster montage and Beowulf's climactic dogfight with a dragon.

But the effects scenes look realer, more integrated into the visual fabric, because they meet the traced-over live-action elements halfway.

But maybe I want “Emergency & I” to be high school for me, too! Musically, the group carries off such an extravagant variety of styles—dance, rock, punk—that one wonders if they aren’t a rotating radio dial filtered through a rock group...
...marked by electrolyte imbalances, priapism, and low blood sodium levels. Briefly hospitalized. ANALYSIS OF RESULTS After AFN’s stint in Mount Auburn Hospital, the study was aborted. Planned but unperformed experiments included playing “45:33” while engaging in underwater combat, dining in fine restaurants, and chopping vegetables for a winter stew. Post-study interviews resulted in similar statements from both test subjects, who noted that despite the track’s length, the music sounded like “nothing.” When asked to best describe the feelings conveyed...
