...self-identifying “most craziest shit ever,” sounds, for no discernible reason, like circus music run amok—and is one of the album’s pleasingly surprising tracks as a result. Stefani’s willingness to completely change direction halfway through a song—repeatedly—remains intact, and perhaps the fact her songs are less “Huh?”-inducing this time around could be taken as a sign of progress.

...also an editor. Once, I was shooting at a high-school graduation, and I realized halfway through that a setting was making my pictures too dim. When I got home, I had to adjust them in Photoshop Elements. If I make the same blunder on the D40, I could lighten up the shots right on the camera, which saves the edited image as a separate file, in case you don't like the fix. This is helpful not just when you're clumsy, as I was, but when you say, shoot in low light and want to edit...

Resources outside are even more limited. Milwaukee has 160 halfway beds for recently released inmates, but those beds are so in demand that a parolee can stay a maximum of just 90 days. "Ideally we'd have five to 10 times the number of beds we do, and we could tailor the stay for each ex-offender," says Steve Swigart, whose nonprofit Wisconsin Community Services runs such facilities. Often the alternative is sleeping on a drug-house sofa or rejoining a gang simply for a place to bunk...

...defense and its superb goaltender Kim Martin. When in net for Duluth Martin had given up more than two goals only once this season—to Minnesota—and boasted a 1.03 goals against average heading into the contest. The key goal came just past halfway through the game in response to the Bulldogs’ first goal. While on the powerplay, sophomore Sarah Vaillancourt had the puck behind the net to the left. As she skated around, keeping possession, she found senior forward Liza Solley in front of the net, who knocked home the puck...
