...more success than just about anyone with music videos online. What tipped you off that this was the way to go? As a rock band we try to make decisions that keep our career going, but that's a distant second to making things that we care about and that we have fun making. We always made these little things for our friends and our fans, and at the dawn of YouTube, some of them just caught on. And we had no idea of the sorts of numbers that were conceivable...
...sidewalks and even fewer wheelchairs. Politicians back in the U.S. like to point to these projects as examples of taxpayer dollars being put to good use, and often cite the exponential number of girls in schools, some 2 million today compared to zero in 2001, as proof of success.

Almost nobody saw The Hurt Locker; nearly everybody has seen Avatar, and the stragglers will catch...
...Best Actress awards from the Golden Globe crowd and, on Jan. 23, the Screen Actors Guild; the former long shot is now the favorite to cop an Oscar (over previous front runner Meryl Streep for Julie & Julia). There's no question that the movie's out-of-nowhere success - a $234 million domestic gross on a modest $29 budget - has propelled Bullock toward the front of the Oscar fray, with little enthusiasm from the critics...
