...been planning with your blockmates, but with a little caution, there’s no reason not to make the switch in perfect confidence that your civil liberties will remain intact. Not only will gmail provide you with the holy grail of internet communications—an absolutely spotless inbox, but its system of filters will allow you to divert those troublesome “academic” e-mails into a special folder, where they need never trouble your twitching, bloodshot eyes.In addition to filters, might I also recommend gmail’s vacation auto-responder for the academically...
...Election.” Perotta’s book is obsessed with detail, fleshing out every facet of these twisted characters, and Field attempts the same in the film. Winslet masterfully tackles her challenging role, as she has most recently with “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind” and “Iris.” It’s amazing that she hasn’t won an Academy Award yet, and this could be her year.

That helps explain the strange fate of Idiocracy, a sci-fi comedy starring Luke Wilson and directed and co-written by Mike Judge, the guy whose spotless track record includes Beavis and Butt-head, King of the Hill and Office Space. Idiocracy may not be a bad movie, but every ad and trailer the studio put together for it tested atrociously. After sitting around finished for almost a year, the movie opened two weeks ago--sort of. Fox released it in a few theaters in seven cities (not including New York City), with no trailers, no ads, no official poster...
