Meir Panim implements programs that serve Israel's neediest populations with respect and dignity. Meir Panim also coordinated care packages for families in the South during the Gaza War.
At the core of man is duality. Some might suggest contradiction. Regardless of how it is characterized, man's essential duality creates tension in his life. For man is both corporal, like every other being that walks the face of the earth, and he is spiritual, imbued with the dignity and divinity of his Creator.
At every instance of his life, man teeters and totters, seeking balance between the dual facets of his nature. At each step, he seeks to imbue to natural with the spiritual, lending grace to the most basic of tasks, and to lend humanity to the divine, bringing holiness within his grasp.
No moment is more rife with the tension of man's duality than his confession on Yom Kippur. The process of repentance and its accompanying recitation of the confession – Vidui – highlights the contradiction of man's nature.
On the one hand, Vidui is a singular manifestation of courage, creativity and spiritual and psychological strength. On the other, it is a powerful statement of self-defeat, a pathetic recognition of human frailty, inferiority and unworthiness.
Sincere and authentic repentance depends upon the strength, ability and insight to accuse oneself not only of doing wrong but of possessing a nature that makes such failure inevitable. Vidui is an acknowledgement that one's intentions and deeds are unworthy and tarnished, a shameful cry that "I have sinned."
Repentance is a merciless and boundless expression of self-accusation. However, the irony – and some might suggest, the beauty – of this admission of necessary failure is wholly dependent on man's unique superiority and spiritual greatness. Without such inherent holiness, self-accusation would be impossible.
It is only when one is cognizant of freedom that he can recognize guilt, fragility and temptation and then – and only then – contemplate genuine repentance.
The Vidui experience is meaningless without both aspects of man's duality. His praise and shame are equal parts of the Vidui experience. Regret requires recognition. Yet recognition is futile unless man simultaneously has faith in his own sacrality; in his creative abilities and talents, which ultimately allow him to repent, to change and to be renewed and reinvigorated.
Call it a fundamental irony, contradiction or duality, but the praise of man is one and the same as the enabler of his confession. One without the other has no meaning.
Rav Soloveitchik, zt"l, derived these two inseparable elements of the repentance experience from the Vidui recitation of the Jew who apportions his ma'asrot during the fourth and seventh years of the Shemittah cycle. Such a Jew boasts he has not violated even one iota of the Commandments; he has fulfilled the mitzvah of ma'asrot to the letter.
"According to all your Commandments which You have commanded me: I have not transgressed any of Your commandments, neither have I forgotten. I have harkened to the voice of the Lord my God, I have done according to all that You have commanded me."
Such a statement in praise of a man extolling his virtues as a God-fearing and obedient servant is categorized by the Sages as a "confession"? How is it possible, Rav Soloveitchik asked, to ascribe "confession," a word that conjures up images of weakness and helplessness, to a man elevated to the point of not having "transgressed any of Your commandments"?
But that is precisely the point. Only a person proud enough to announce that he has done "all that You have commanded" is also to be expected to humbly admit he has "not done according to all that You have commanded."
The one who possesses the insight and strength to do right is also expected to acknowledge that which is not right. The ability to recognize success is a prerequisite to admission of failure. Both emanate from the same source; both lead to mutually exclusive conclusions – the nullity of being and the greatness of being.
The nullity of being leads to the Yom Kippur confession. The greatness of being leads to the ma'asrot confession. Both are rooted in humans, created from earth's dust in the image of God.
Both forms of confession can at times be integrated. The greatness of being can indeed overshadow the nullity of being.
When the Klausenberg Rebbe addressed survivors from Hungary, Romania, and Czechoslovakia in the Feldafin DP Camp on Kol Nidre night in 1945, the greatness of being overpowered the nullity of being, despite the dire circumstances and the historical context, which might have led a "rational" thinker to focus on the nullity of existence.
Lieutenant Meyer Birnbaum reported that he "had never heard so powerful a speech and never will again. When he finished, more than two hours later, I was both emotionally drained and inspired for the best davening of my life."
What did this great rebbe, who himself had lost his wife and eleven children to the Nazis, say to those who could still see and smell the stench of the crematoria? How could he speak of confessions to those who had witnessed such depravity? How could he speak of such things in the presence of millions of fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, husbands, wives and children?
The rebbe stood with his Machzor in hand, calmly flipping through its pages. Periodically he would ask rhetorically, "Wher haht das geshriben" – Who wrote this? Does this apply to us? Are we guilty of the sins enumerated here?
One by one, he went through each of the sins listed in the Ashamnu (we have become guilty) prayer and then the Al Chait and concluded that those sins had little to do with those who survived the camps. He analyzed each of the possible transgressions one by one:
Ashamnu. "Have we sinned against Hashem or man? I don't think so."
Dibarnu dofi. "We spoke no slander. We didn't speak at all. If we had any strength to speak, we saved it for the SS guards so that we could avoid punishment."
Latznu. "But we were so serious in the camps. There was no scoffing; no such thing as smiling or making a joke."
Maradnu. "Rebelled? Against whom should we have rebelled? Hashem? We weren't able to rebel at all. If we had tried to rebel against the Nazis it would have been our last rebellion."
And so the Klausenberger concluded with the Ashamnu prayer and turned his attention to the more detailed Al Chait. Once again, he concluded, with the pride of one whose greatness of being supersedes the nullity of being, that the recitation of sins enumerated in Al Chait hardly applied to the worshippers in Feldafig Block 5A.
Al chait she'chatanu lefanecha b'ones uvratzon – for the sins that we have sinned before You under duress and willingly – "We certainly did not observe the mitzvot in the camps because we were forced to."
Bevili daas – for the sins that we have sinned without knowledge – "Our minds were in such a state that we did not have knowledge of anything."
B'tipshus peh – for the sins that we have sinned with foolish speech – "That's gelechter [funny]. Who spoke foolishly or lightheartedly in the situation we were in?"
B'yetzer hara – for the sin that we have sinned with the evil urge – "To sin with the yetzer hara you must first have possessions of your physical sense of touch. We were skin and bones. Incapable of touching. The only thing we could feel were the corpses we carried out every morning.
"We heard only one thing, the commands of our guards. We had ears for nothing else. Our eyes were only looking around to see whether our guards were watching when we wanted to take a rest. Otherwise we were as blind men seeing nothing. Smell – yes, we had a sense of smell. The unforgettable stench of death was constantly in our nostrils making us nauseous. Taste – the only taste we knew was the thin soup they gave us so we could have enough strength for another day's work. On these, I forget, we did have the yetzer hara for food, for the slop that we saw thrown to the pigs. What the SS officers would not eat they threw to the pigs. How we envied the pigs."
And so the rebbe eliminated the Al Chaits one by one, emphasizing how all of these transgressions did not apply to his congregation.
Seeing the rebbe close the Machzor, Lieutenant Birnbaum was certain he was finished speaking. But then the rebbe asked again his original question:
Who wrote this Machzor? I don't see anywhere the sins that apply to us, the sins of losing emunah and bitachon….
Where is the proof that we have sinned in this fashion? How many times did we recite Krias Shema on our wood slats at night and think to ourselves: Ribbono shel Olam, please take my neshama, so that I do not have to repeat once again in the morning "I'm thankful before You who has returned my soul to me." I do not need my soul. You can keep it. How many of us went to sleep thinking that we couldn't exist another day, with all bitachon lost? And yet when the dawn broke in the morning, we once again said Modeh Ani and thanked Hashem for having returned our souls.
None of us expected to survive. Every morning, we saw this one didn't move and that one didn't move, and as we carried the dead out we looked upon them with envy. Is that emunah in Hashem? Is that bitachon in Hashem?
So, yes, we have sinned. We have sinned and now we must klop Al Chait. We must pray to get back the emunah and bitachon that lay dormant these years in the camps. Now that we are free, Ribbono shel Olam, we beg You to forgive us. Forgive everyone here. Forgive every Jew in the world.
Rav Soloveitchik taught that every confession expresses itself in the outcry "I am black, and I am beautiful, Oh daughter of Jerusalem." For when we fail to see the "beauty" we cannot hope to discern the "blackness."
Genuine repentance demands that the sinner view himself from the seemingly two antithetical viewpoints, the two fundamental truths of his being – from the nullity of being and the greatness of being.
The Klausenberger Rebbe clearly saw both.
May God grant us the strength, courage, humility and wisdom to see both as well.
Shanah Tovah.

Softball players, parents accuse young woman of 'foul play'
Woman promised scholarships, Olympic Team chances
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - Several softball players and their parents are accusing a young woman of foul play.
The moms and their daughters said they helped organize an event that never happened, and were also promised scholarships, coaching from top-tier players, and a shot at making the Olympic Team.
"I feel they took advantage of our kindness," said Yvonne Contreras, mother to one of the girls. "They put these girls up and they shattered their dreams. They made them think they were getting all this stuff and they didn't get anything," she said.
Both mothers and daughters say 18-year-old Lucy Apadoca and her mother are behind the alleged scheme.
Allegedly, Apadoca collected personal information, including headshots and social security numbers, to register young players for the fake team. Tickets for the so-called "L.A. Fundraiser," which Bakersfield Police warned several weeks ago were fraudulent, were allegedly passed out to the softball families to sell.
23ABC spoke with Lucy, who denies knowing anything about the fake fundraiser. 23ABC also planned to meet with her on Saturday, but after repeated phone calls and text messages, Lucy never showed up.

Where Does NYC Stand in Achieving Universal Access to Early Education?
Last week in his state of the union address, President Obama made the case for universal access to high-quality early childhood education. He noted that while we know that early education improves outcomes for children, financial and other barriers prevent many children from accessing these services.
The most recent Census data show that nationwide more than half (52.6 percent) of three- and four-year-olds are not enrolled in a pre-school program.
For New York City, the same Census data show that about half of three- and four-year olds are enrolled in public or private pre-school or nursery school programs. With an additional 8.5% already enrolled in kindergarten, about 40 percent of three- and four-year-olds – more than 87,000 – are not enrolled in an early education program.[1]
While the city compares rather favorably to the nation, there are certain communities and populations in the five boroughs where young children are less likely to be enrolled in early education programs:
This last point is particularly troubling, since we know that early childhood education goes a long way toward leveling the playing field for low-income children who often face multiple barriers to success and well-being.
We also know that investments in early childhood education are cost-effective. The President mentioned a return on investment of $7 for every $1 spent on early childhood education. This was likely a reference to a seminal study known as the HighScope Perry Preschool study, in which 123 low-income children were randomly split into two groups – one group receiving a high-quality early education program and the other group receiving no such intervention. The original study was conducted in the mid-1960s and the children have been tracked ever since into adulthood. The results of several follow-up studies show a number of long-term benefits, including higher graduation rates, higher earnings, lower arrest rates, and total returns-on-investment upwards of $17 for every $1 spent on program costs.[2]
With these demonstrated benefits and potential savings, it seems unfathomable that the Mayor proposes to cut early childhood education in his preliminary budget. Rather than reducing resources for these critical programs, we should be looking at ways to expand access to the programs that support early childhood development, so that all New York City children have the opportunity to develop the proper foundation for academic achievement and success.

Hi Lovers of Vintage Hotties ;)
Thank you for your overwhelming support for this blog as well as for the dedicated days to come. Was hoping to have a calender up this week but as with life, crap comes up that slows you down a bit. So I thought I would let you know the next two dedicated days coming up at least. First off, there has been such an outpouring of suggestions that I can't just do it every other Wednesday. Would take over a year to get all the suggestion up. So it has changed to every Wednesday instead.
This Wednesday, October 22nd, will be a combination of Christy Canyon, Ginger Lynn, and Amber Lynn. If you have a pic or two you want to go up send them my way and will save them for that day. Next Wednesday, October 29th, will be a Jayne Mansfield dedicated day. As with all dedicated days, if you have a pic that you want to contribute, send it my way and will save it for that day.
All days in the future, after the Jayne Mansfield day, will be in order that I received the suggestion first unless a birthday or some other anniversary of a person on the list comes up. Again thanks for all the suggestions and support. I deeply appreciate it all.
Amy ;)

Friday law report: No damages recoverable for cost of rearing child
Friday 03 December 1999
McFarlane and another v Tayside Health Board
House of Lords (Lord Slynn of Hadley, Lord Steyn, Lord Hope of Craighead, Lord Clyde and Lord Millett) 25 November 1999
WHERE AN unwanted pregnancy resulted from the negligence of a health authority in connection with a vasectomy operation, the authority would be liable for damages for the physical effects of the pregnancy and childbirth but not for the costs of bringing up the child.
The House of Lords rejected the appeal of the Health Board against a decision that it was liable for the physical effects of pregnancy and childbirth on the mother, whose pregnancy was unwanted and was a result of the board's negligence, but allowed its appeal in respect of the costs of rearing the child.
In October 1989 the father underwent a vasectomy operation. He was notified by letter in March 1990 that his sperm counts were negative. In September 1991, following the resumption of intercourse without contraceptive measures, the mother became pregnant and their fifth child was born in May 1992.
The parents claimed that the mother had suffered pain and distress from the pregnancy and birth, and that they had both incurred and would incur costs in rearing the child, all due to the negligence of the board. The Lord Ordinary dismissed both claims, holding that as a matter of principle the parents were not entitled to damages, because they could not be said to be in an overall position of loss.
The Second Division of the Court of Session unanimously allowed a reclaiming motion, holding that where loss had resulted from injury, the law recognised a legal interest which had to be made good by an award of damages. Applying that principle, and on the ground that there was no overriding objection on the ground of public policy, the claims for the physical effects of the pregnancy and childbirth, and for the child-rearing costs, were both admissible. Accordingly, the parents should be able to seek full recovery. The board appealed.
Anne Smith QC and Stephen Woolman QC (Balfour & Manson, Edinburgh) for the parents; Colin Campbell QC and Laura Dunlop (Lawrence Graham) for the board.
Lord Slynn said that there was no real difficulty in deciding the claim for damages in respect of the pregnancy and birth itself. The parents did not want another child for justifiable economic and family reasons: they already had four children. They were lawfully entitled to take steps to ensure that that did not happen, one possible such step being the vasectomy of the husband.
It was not necessary to consider the events of an unwanted conception and birth in terms of "harm" or "injury" in the ordinary sense of the words. They were unwanted and known by the board to be unwanted events. The object of the vasectomy was to prevent them happening. In consequence the wife, if there was negligence, was entitled by way of general damages to be compensated for the pain and discomfort and inconvenience of the unwanted pregnancy and birth.
Whether the parents should be entitled as a matter of principle to recover for the costs of maintaining the child was a much more difficult question. That part of the case was concerned only with liability for economic loss. It was not enough to say that the loss was foreseeable. The question was not simply one of quantification of damages, it was one of liability, of the extent of the duty of care which was owed to the husband and wife.
In order to create liability for economic loss there might have to be a closer link between the act and the damage than that provided by foreseeability. There should be a relationship of neighbourhood or proximity, and that depended on whether it was fair, just and reasonable for the law to impose the duty.
Although a doctor undertook a duty of care in regard to the prevention of pregnancy, it did not follow that the duty included also avoiding the costs of rearing the child if born and accepted into the family. It was not fair, just or reasonable to impose on the doctor or his employer liability for the consequential responsibilities, imposed on or accepted by the parents to bring up a child. The doctor did not assume responsibility for those losses.

On paper, The Judge is a slam dunk of a case for any vicious film critic. "Judge not, less ye be judged!" would have made for a much better tagline!
The story of a flash, self-centred city lawyer returning to his home town for the funeral of his mother, visit his family he hasn't seen in years including his Judge father who despise each other only to end up representing him in a murder case and at the same time exorcise old family demons sounds like a cliched, cloying courtroom drama. Think Elizabethtown meets John Grisham.
It certainly starts off with a strong case for the prosecution with one of the worst CGI shots in recent memory, a series of "returning home" beats straight out of Grosse Pointe Blank, Elizabethtown and Young Adult, a mentally disabled brother character who's only reason for his disability seems to be to provide humour at his expense and Downey Jr's performance seemingly set on cruise control.
However it is not an open and shut case.
For the defence there is good support from Billy Bob Thornton as the rival lawyer and a sassy spark from Vera Farmiga as the one that got away (but now has a daughter who he may have got to know a bit too well) but the film rests on the strong on screen relationship between Downey Jr and Duvall. It starts of frosty but as the walls between them come down there are many touching moments that are well played by both actors that lead to an emotional catharsis in the courtroom as Downey's lawyer makes a desperate last roll of the dice and secrets from both sides are revealed.
The jury might be out on this one but there is enough goodwill to Downey Jr and Duvall to give this a stay of execution.

The Judge - review
On paper, The Judge is a slam dunk of a case for any vicious film critic. "Judge not, less ye be judged!" would have made for a much better tagline!
The Best Of Me - review
There is a famous saying about writing which is "write what you know". If that is true then Nicholas Sparks must know a LOT of boys from the wrong side of the tracks fall in love with rich girls in the Deep South.
Sparks has written seventeen romantic novels, nine of which have been adapted by Hollywood into the same film... don't believe me? Just look at the posters...
Filmgoers could play their own "Choose Your Own Nicholas Sparks Adventure" based on what they think will happen at various points in the film. For example:
The male lead is invited for a private chat with the girl's father. Will he -
A) Give his blessing to their union?
B) Invite him to watch the big local sports game?
C) Tell him to stay away from his daughter?
The male lead bumps into some bad characters from his based during Act 2. Will they -
A) Meet up for a beer and let bygones be bygones?
B) Break out into a West Side Story song and dance number?
C) Return late in Act 3 to serve as the required obstacle to the couple getting together which has so far been non-existent?
Yes there are three choices but there is only one real outcome here.
Sadly, as with all the Hollywood adaptations of Sparks' novels there is only the illusion of free will as the ending has been determined before the end of the first reel.
However the biggest problem with the film isn't its predictability but trying to believe that the young version of Dawson Cole played by Luke Bracey would grow up to look like James Marsden in 20 years.
Bracey looks like he is over 30 years old in the film but would have been convincing if the older version of Dawson had been played by Stephen Moyer instead.
Ultimately The Best Of Me is a far cry from being the "best" of cinema and is more like a case of being up Dawson's Creek without a paddle.

Out Of Print: A Documentary - review
I wish the release of Out Of Print online this week came under better circumstances but on October 15th Julia Marchese (director of the film and long-time New Beverly Cinema employee) announced that she had left the New Beverly in Los Angeles due to recent managerial changes at the cinema.
It might be too early to tell, and just to be clear I don't know the whole story, but I hope that what started out as a love letter to the New Beverly Cinema doesn't become a eulogy.
One the one hand Out Of Print is a documentary about a repertory cinema in Los Angeles called the New Beverly which became world famous for its eclectic range of programming, Grindhouse feel and celebrity patrons (many of whom appear as talking heads).
On the other hand, it is much bigger than that and looks at the importance of small independent cinemas like this, and the Prince Charles Cinema in London, are in keeping "film" alive in the form of 35mm when all the multiplexes have switched to digital.
Not only are they doing their best to keep the medium of celluloid alive but they also are bringing new audiences to old films that they might never have seen before or on the big screen.
The film reminds us that there is no better way to enjoy a movie than in a darkened cinema auditorium packed out with likeminded people who are there for the same reason that you are.
I have worked at the Belmont Filmhouse (formally The Belmont Picturehouse) for over eleven years now and some of my fondest memories include screening an original print of Predator to a sold-out audience or the many, many screening of The Room with all the crowd participation and flying spoons.
We've seen the transition to digital cinema, and while it certainly does have its advantages, there is nothing quite like the look, sound and feel of a reel print so it is very exciting that we'll be one of the few sites in the UK screening Christopher Nolan's Interstellar from a 35mm print.
But I digress, what is clear throughout every frame of Out Of Print is that it is a movie made by people who love movies about places that love movies screened by people who love movies, and that is something that should be supported.
It is a rallying cry to people to stop watching movies on their phones, turn them off and head to their local cinema and experience the film as the filmmakers intended.
Julia Marchese's enthusiasm for cinema shines through in the documentary and her future might lie in the box office counter at the New Beverly but Out Of Print demonstrates she might lie within the industry she has spent so much of her time fighting for and personally I hope that another repertory cinema takes advantage of her skills soon.

The Rewrite - review
For a movie about screenwriting and teaching its rules and conventions, The Rewrite is so cliched and conventional that it desperately needed a few rewrites of its own to help it break away and stand out from of the dozens of Hugh Grant starring rom-coms already out there.
Indeed it could be seen as a reflection of Grant's own career.
A man striving to recapture the highs of the beginning of his career (Four Weddings And Funeral) but finds that an unexpected career change (fighting the tabloids) brings him the peace and happiness he has been searching for.
Recently his film roles have been few and far between, seeming like Grant had almost given up and at the beginning of the film he appears to be sleepwalking through the first act as he reproduces his About A Boy-schtick; behaving like a petulant child, sleeping with young women and doing as little as possible to coast through life but once he has his Dead Poet's Society moment of inspiration, Grant threatens to look like he might be enjoying himself on screen again.
Grant's Keith Michaels at one point claims screenwriting can't be taught and its certainly true with The Rewrite as anyone who has ever watched a movie could write the ending to this movie after reading a 30 page draft which takes its star for Granted,

'71 - review
'71 refers to the year when the film is set which follows a young soldier on duty in Belfast during the Troubles but it could also refer to the nerve-shredding 71 minutes that follow once Jack O'Connell's Pvt Hook finds himself abandoned, lost, alone and hunted as he tries to make it back to the barracks after a bungled raid.
O'Connell is excellent in a role that is surprisingly silent, as even a simple yes or no could give away his identity as many different parties search for "the Brit", but he is still able to generate that all-important empathy with the audience as they can feel his pain, anger and fear throughout the night.
And in the words of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, "Oh what a night". Once Hook is separated from his unit, Yann Demange inserts the screw and continues to turn and turn it to unbearably high levels of tension that caused several audiences members in my screening to let out audible gasps for a release, particularly at one specific incredible shot that I have no idea how they filmed it and the climax in a tower block (that in one of the film'sonly flaws is signposted from the beginning. Oh those flats are an IRA stronghold, wonder where he'll end up).
The plot and action move as fast as Hook does through the hostile territory but still provides room to explore the mood, emotions and politics of the time.
You'll have no trouble appreciating this Escape From Belfast and fall for it Hook, line and sinker.

Annabelle - review
Annabelle is the full length horror movie based on the fictionalised version of the "true story" behind the demonic doll that featured briefly in the full length horror movie of the fictionalised version of the "true story" of Ed and Lorraine Warren's paranormal investigations in The Conjuring.
For as long as there have been horror movies, porcelain dolls have been creeping people out with their cold dead eyes and creepy stares and there was massive potential for some genuine scares here but when stretched over a 99 minute running time the result is an uninspiring Rosemary's Baby-esque tale of a woman becoming increasingly paranoid in her apartment but it becomes ridiculous as it is just a doll!
Despite an effectively creepy sequence in a lift that refuses to leave the basement, the film does fall down in a sequence where the doll turns around and stands up to face her targets becomes laughable.
2 stars
If this film is a success, we can expect to see tenuous prequels based on items based on successful horror movies.
Coming soon from the makers of Annabelle... The unhorrifying history of the television from Poltergeist before the Freeling family bought it.
Coming soon from the makers of Annabelle... Jigsaw! The gripping account of John Kramer completing various jigsaw puzzles before he became a serial killer.
Coming soon from the makers of Annabelle... "Shatner" - the terrifying true story behind the Captain Kirk Halloween mask that would be worn by killer Michael Myers.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - review
Technically, all the pieces are here, and in the right order. There are four teenagers. They are mutants. They are ninjas. Oh and of course they are turtles named Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael and Michaelangelo.
However something about the whole thing feels off and not like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles we all grew up with as kids.
Here the focus of the film is Megan Fox's Channel 6 reporter April O'Neill who (for some unknown reason) has become linked to the turtles past and was responsible for naming them and saving them from the lab where they were experimented on.
The turtles don't get a lot of screen time to showcase their brotherly bond and individual characteristics. Instead it is limited to Leonardo being the leader because everyone else calls him that. Donatello is the scientific, geeky one because he has glasses. Raphael is the angry one and Michaelangelo is the wise-cracking one who has a very weird and creepy interspecies crush on April. Eeeeewwwww.
Also shame on a movie that wastes talent like Will Arnett and William Fichtner, who has proved in the past that he can lift a bad movie like Drive Angry with his villainous performances.
The filmmakers have attempted to place this in a realistic New York City setting but for some reason, people seem far too willing to accept the appearance of 6ft talking mutant turtles. Perhaps they are normal compared to all the superheroes walking around the Big Apple.
Certainly the villain's evil plan of holding the city to ransom with a mutagen is straight out of a comic book movie (The Amazing Spider-Man in particular).
In the end it is a case of less T.U.R.T.L.E. Power and more "Awkward Turtle".

Shaikh Mohammad: Meydan is not a racecourse, it's a city
The brainchild of Shaikh Mohammad, the Dubai World Cup is in its sixteenth year and remains a fitting tribute to his love of horses and of horseracing

- Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum along with his daughter Shaikha Al Jaleela Bin Mohammad Al Maktoum, during the Dubai World Cup 2011 at Maydan Race Course.
Dubai: Meydan is not just a racecourse but an entire city by itself, His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, said on Saturday.
Shaikh Mohammad's comments came while he attended the Dubai World Cup race meeting at the purpose-built Meydan racecourse. "Meydan is not a racecourse, it's a city," he said in reply to a query on the ambience in the futuristic venue, which is hosting its second Dubai World Cup race meeting.
Replying to another question on how many winners Godolphin hopes to have during the evening, Shaikh Mohammad said: "We have already two. Now my advice is to enjoy yourself."
The brainchild of Shaikh Mohammad, the Dubai World Cup is in its sixteenth year and remains a fitting tribute to his love of horses and of horseracing.
Meydan racecourse, with a capacity of 60,000 spectators in a one-mile long grandstand, hosted its second World Cup on Saturday with total prize money of $26 million.

Despite the difficulty in making predictions, Cherry agreed to pick the final four. "I like Anaheim because of Scott Niedermayer and Chris Pronger," he said. "I wish the team could score a little more, but it's a long time since I've seen two defencemen of that calibre on the same team." Also advancing to the Western Conference final, Cherry predicted, will be the Detroit Red Wings. In the Eastern Conference final, he likes the Ottawa Senators and New York Rangers.more

Arizona State dips in national polls after loss to Stanford in Pac-12 Championship
After a disappointing 38-14 loss at home Saturday in the Pac-12 Championship Game, Arizona State took an expected hit in national polls Sunday.
In the AP Top 25, the 10-3 Sun Devils fell from 11th to 16th. The team also fell four spots to No. 17 in the USA Today Coaches Poll.
ASU also finished No. 14 in the final BCS Standings.
The loss to Stanford ended the Sun Devils' seven-game winning streak, and it stifled their shot at earning their first Rose Bowl berth since 1996.
