Carell is Andy, who stars in the film’s title role. Andy lives in an apartment full of friends (in other words, collectible action figures) and works at Smart Tech, a Circuit City-style store. When his co-workers David (Paul Rudd), Cal (Seth Rogen), and Jay (Romany Malco) learn his about his embarrassingly uneventful sexual history, they set out on a mission to get Andy laid. Andy is reluctant but starts to think about conquering his sexual anxiety when he meets Trish (Catherine Keener...

Labor needs, he said, to connect with voters "who are searching for some form of certainty in an age of great uncertainty." Social conservatives often lean left...
...final score, as reported by those who didn’t fall asleep or leave, was 9-6 in favor of the Lions. Rudd managed to make three of his five field-goal attempts on the afternoon, including one from 39 yards. For this effort, he was awarded Ivy League Special Teams Player of the Week. That’s right, he wasn’t benched: he was given an award. I’d feel a lot better about this distinction if they changed the title to “Least Terrible Ivy League Special Teams Player...
