Therefore I suggest that John Burton not be allowed to take his office as vice president and whoever the second place finisher is be allowed to assume the office instead. Ms. Driskell should also be given immunity from being impeached by the council for anything connected to the campaign finance scandal. People will be alienated and upset if either both Driskell and Burton are allowed to assume office or if they are both barred from holding office. I believe that a compromise such as the one listed above is needed for the good of the already ailing and extremely weak...

...Anna and the King-imperialism and Ms. Oscar-bait herself starring in a self-proclaimed epic about the "East meeting the West." Sure, the story is recycled, but who cares-it's good for you! The Hurricane tells the also "epic" tale of a boxer's struggle to battle racism and the justice system after being wrongly convicted of murder. Gag.

The idea of agonizing over "Ms." seems quaint because the idea of calling anybody "Mister" or "Missus" or indeed anything other than "Hey, you" has faded away. Go into Abercrombie & Fitch, and the teenage sales clerks read your name off your credit card like you were both going to Riverdale High together...

...thanks to the wonders of advanced computer graphics, our heroines can now be ogled more realistically than ever. But Smith's enduring relationship with Lara has been about more than building a better bottom. In Tomb Raider, players guide Ms. Croft, archaeologist and daughter of an English lord, through a series of brainteasing, Indiana Jones-style adventures. Just five years old, Lara has become the foundation of one of the most successful franchises in video-game history. The first three Tomb Raiders sold an incredible 17 million copies, helping boost sales of Sony PlayStations and 3-D graphics cards...
