A disabled cruise liner inched into

San Diego Bay on Thursday after

three nightmarish days adrift on

seven-day cruise and left the ship

Pulled by six tugboats and

escorted by Coast Guard cutters,

the nearly 1,000-foot Carnival

Splendor reached the dock at about

8:30 a.m. PST, unable to steer or

an hour later, dragging suitcases

Aboard the ship, lines for cold

canned crab meat and other goods

for the passengers and crew, passen-

gers said. People on the decks and

about 100 onshore cheered loudly as

the ship reached the dock, while all

along the harbor, tourists, joggers

and fishermen snapped photos.

Amazon is no longer selling a self-

published guide for pedophiles.

It wasn’t clear whether Ama-

zon.com Inc. had pulled the item,

or whether the author withdrew

it. Amazon did not immediately

return messages Thursday, and

the author, Phillip R. Greaves II of

Pueblo, Colo., declined comment

through a representative.

The book, “The Pedophile’s

Guide to Love and Pleasure: a

Amazon Pulls Book for Pedophiles Self-published guide is taken down after outrage surfaces

Child-lover’s Code of Conduct,”

offers advice to pedophiles on how

to make a sexual encounter with a

child as safe as possible. It includes

first-person descriptions of such

encounters, purportedly written

from a child’s point of view.

The availability of the book calls

into question whether Amazon has

any procedures — or even an obli-

gation — to vet books before they

are sold in its online stores. The

title is an electronic book available

for Amazon’s Kindle e-reader and

the company’s software for reading

computers. Amazon allows authors

to submit their own works and

shares revenue with them.

what constitutes offensive content,

saying simply that it is “probably

what you would expect.” Amazon

also doesn’t promise to remove or

protect any one category of books.

Once discovered Wednesday, the

book triggered outrage from com-

menters, and some people threat-

ened to boycott the online store

until Amazon removed the book.

Christopher Finan, president of

the American Booksellers Founda-

tion for Free Expression, said it’s

Amazon’s First Amendment right to

sell any book that is not child por-

nography or legally obscene. Finan

said Greaves’ book doesn’t amount

to either because it does not include

illustrations. DANA WOLLMAN (AP)

It is accepting pre-orders for the hardcover version of “I Am the Market: How to Smuggle Cocaine by the Ton, in Five Easy Lessons.” And in 2002, the United States Justice Foundation threatened to sue Ama-zon for selling “Understanding Loved Boys and Boylovers.” That title is still available through Amazon.

Iraq’s Tenuous Political Progress

THE LATEST INCARNATION of a British icon debuted Thurs-day: a fuel-efficient double-decker bus expected to hit the streets of London in 2012. Mayor Boris Johnson unveiled the life-size model, which conserves the curves and asymmetry of the original. Double-decker buses have been a feature of the Brit-ish capital’s life since the 19th century, when they were horse-drawn. The best-known model remains the curvy red Route-master, which was retired from general service in 2005 after half a century of service. (AP)

Nouri al-Maliki has to form the new

government in Iraq. (AP)

Iraq’s president gave Shiite Prime

Minister Nouri al-Maliki the nod to

form the next government Thurs-

day after an eight-month deadlock,

but a dramatic walkout from par-

liament by his Sunni rivals cast

doubt on a power-sharing deal

reached by the two sides less than

a day earlier.

The walkout underlined the

Sunni minority’s reluctance over

the prospective new unity govern-

ment outlined in the deal, which

ensures continued Shiite domina-

tion while giving Sunnis a role far

short of the power they seek.

The power-sharing deal reached

Wednesday night was heralded

the inconclusive March 7 parlia-

Despite the walkout, lawmak-

dent for a second term.

Even if the power-sharing deal

holds, it could be a setback for the

Humbled by elections at home,

President Obama on Thursday

endured a sobering test of his

power abroad as well, unable to

close a trade deal with South Korea

and thrown on the defensive about

America’s approach to global eco-

nomic worries.

From halfway around the world,

he admonished both friends and

foes back in Washington to “tell

the truth” about the pain of cut-

ting the government’s huge spend-

ing deficits.

Here on Thursday, on a stage

meant to salute triumph, Obama

could not announce a free-trade

pact with his ally and host, South

Korean President Lee Myung-bak.

It was an embarrassing setback

given Obama’s high expectations

and his desire to deliver more jobs

for Americans.

Lack of Trade Deal New Blow to Obama U.S., S. Korea talks stall as difficulties at G-20 summit loom

“We want this to be done in a

matter of weeks,” Obama said of

the deal.

The 10-day trip has had a dual

effect on Obama. It has offered

memorable moments: dancing with

children in India and reliving boy-

hood stories in Indonesia.

But it has also been a busy and

tiring trek, and he keeps getting

reminders of what awaits him

at home: the aftermath of a los-

ing midterm election and a pile of

unfinished business. (AP)

Pessimism shrouded the start of the G-20 economic summit Thurs-day, with President Obama and fel-low world leaders arriving in Seoul divided over currency and trade policies. Hopes had been high that the summit could be a forum for sketching an economic path for-ward from financial crisis. But so far, G-20 countries haven’t agreed on an agenda, let alone solutions to the problems that divide them. (AP)

Talk Won’t Pay the BillsBipartisan deficit panel challenges conservatives and liberals to face reality

The leaders of the deficit commission

are baldly calling out the budget myths

of both political parties, challenging

lawmakers to engage in the “adult con-

versation” they say they want.

Their plan — mixing painful cuts

to Social Security and Medicare with

big tax increases — has no chance of

enactment as written, certainly not as a

whole. But the commission’s high pro-

file will make it harder for Republicans

and Democrats to simply keep reciting

their tax and spending talking points

without acknowledging the real sac-

rifices that progress against govern-

ment deficits would demand.

It’s time for both conservatives and

liberals to “put up or shut up,” says Jon

Cowan, head of the centrist-Democrat-

ic group Third Way, which praised the

bold new proposals and urged politi-

cians to show courage.

Republicans failed to produce their

often-promised deficit reductions when

they controlled the government, Cowan

said, and Democrats refuse to acknowl-

edge that entitlement programs such

as Social Security and Medicare must

be trimmed.

Already, some top elected officials

— House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, for one

— have declared Wednesday’s propos-

als by President Obama’s bipartisan

commission unacceptable. Others still

say deficits can be reduced in relative-

ly easy ways, a notion that few main-

stream economists accept.

As amply demonstrated by the

panel’s co-chairmen — former Clin-

ton White House chief of staff Erskine

Bowles and retired senator Alan Simp-

son, R-Wyo. — taming the deficit

requires real pain all around. One per-

son’s government “waste” is another’s

essential program.

The co-chairmen’s ideas, which

they agree are simply a starting point,

include calls to raise the Social Secu-

rity retirement age and reduce sched-

uled benefit increases, whack the Pen-

tagon budget, cut farm subsidies and

increase the federal tax on gasoline by

15 cents a gallon.

The most vocal critics of the plan,

which would cut spending by $3 for

every $1 raised through higher taxes,

are Democrats. Many will strong-

ly oppose the bid to slowly raise the

Social Security retirement age to 69.

Republicans, especially three commis-

sion members appointed by incoming

House Speaker John Boehner, are like-

ly to balk at tax increases

The bipartisan panel was created

out of both parties’ frustration with

the government’s chronic inability to

control budget deficits and the national

debt. The idea is that Republicans and

Democrats might join hands and vote

for an unpopular mix of tax increases

and program reductions because the

shame and hypocrisy of doing noth-

ing would be too great.

Bowles and Simpson no longer hold

top offices, so they were able to produce

a plan that would gore everyone’s ox. It’s

actually a discussion draft, which the

men decided to publicize after Wednes-

day’s commission meeting because

leaks seemed inevitable.

In releasing such a slap-in-the-face

plan, the co-chairmen grabbed head-

lines and riveted interest groups across

the political spectrum. In one stroke, they

seemed to change the national conversa-

tion on the deficit, at least for a while.

Besides Democrats concerned about

big cuts in entitlement programs, the

plan may cause discomfort for dozens

of Republicans who won congressio-

nal elections last week after vowing

to cut the deficit but offering few or

no details on how to do it. The House

GOP’s “Pledge to America” doesn’t

propose touching Social Security and

Medicare, instead focusing vaguely on

domestic programs passed every year

by Congress — which are only about

one-seventh of the budget.

Even people who don’t like the

Bowles-Simpson plan credited the

men for jump-starting a national

debate on the nation’s precarious fis-

cal posture.

“The positive aspects of this are that

they say, ‘It’s got to be both revenues and

spending. ... You can’t get there with

getting rid of waste, fraud and abuse

and earmarks,’” said James Horney of

the liberal Center on Budget and Policy

Priorities. “So, that’s moving the debate

forward from where it’s been.”

Soon Congress must decide wheth-

er that is all it will do. ANDREW TAYLOR AND

to pedal power. But that’s not an

all-or-nothing proposition. One of

his top selling points for commut-

ers is that you have the option to be

lazy or to wuss out in bad weath-

er, since every Metrobus has a bike

rack on the front. “It just takes a lit-

tle gumption to use that first time,”

he said. As long as it’s not rush hour,

you can roll on the rails, too. (And if

you happen to have a folding bike,

you can hop on whenever.)

To be a model Metro cyclist,

Hoagland says, it’s important to

follow a few etiquette pointers. For

starters, take the elevator instead of

the escalators into the station. Then

hop on either the first or final car.

“It helps to be the last person

on and off, but it’s a balancing act

between being courteous and get-

ting on the train,” Hoagland said.

While he’s riding, Hoagland posi-

tions his bike so the chain is facing

the wall — to avoid getting gunk

on other passengers — and keeps

a hand on the brakes.

It might seem simpler to leave

your bike at a station instead, and

many stops do offer bike parking.

But Hoagland cautions that rid-

ers who choose this option have

to be diligent about locking up,

particularly at outer stations that

don’t see much action between

9 a.m. and 5 p.m. “Essentially, it’s

a field of unmonitored racks for

eight hours a day,” he said.

Thanks to recent developments,

however, going intermodal (tran-

sit-geek speak for these kinds of

trips) is getting easier. The Bike-

station at Union Station boasts a

more secure way to store your ride,

as only members have access to the

helmet-shaped facility. And mem-

bers of Capital Bikeshare, which

has installed racks near many

Metro stops, can quit worrying

about both locks and lugging.

Expect even more improvements

— including many more miles of

bike lanes — over the next few years,

as the District Department of Trans-

portation urges more people to take

up cycling as a way to prevent con-

gestion. VICKY HALLETT (EXPRESS)

The nurses at Washington Hos-

pital Center have voted to go on

a one-day strike the day before

Thanksgiving, the latest move

in an increasingly contentious

labor dispute at the region’s big-

gest hospital.

A spokeswoman for National

Nurses United, which represents

the 1,600 nurses at the hospital,

said 90 percent of those voting sup-

ported the one-day work stoppage.

She declined to provide numbers.

Voting took place Sunday through

Wednesday.

Hospital officials said they were

Officials said that the hospi-

Tough Sledding

Every season Georgetown takes a

break from playing at the Verizon

Center to tip off in its on-campus

gym, McDonough Arena. And there

is only one foe who has beaten the

Hoyas on their turf since 1982 —

Old Dominion.

Georgetown opens its sea-

son against ODU tonight, but

this time the Hoyas will travel to

Norfolk, where the competition

Hoyas’ difficult early schedule puts squad to test from the jump

and intensity are bound to be a

lot tougher.

In the Hoyas’ last meeting with

the Monarchs — Dec. 19, 2009 —

ODU dominated for all four quar-

ters in a 61-57 win to hand then-

No. 11-ranked Georgetown its first

loss of the season.

This year will be a true test of

this Hoya team’s identity. The Mon-

archs lead off a top-heavy sched-

ule for Georgetown, which has a

stacked lineup of matchups at the

jump start.

“Our schedule is extremely

difficult, possibly more than we

can chew,” said head coach John

Thompson III. “I know that this

team has to grow, and I know that

this team will be tested early, and

I’m hoping we can have success

early while we are growing.”

With the loss of leader Greg

Monroe to the pros, Georgetown

has a lot to make up for, but it’s

up for the challenge.

The Hoyas wil l be led by

senior Austin Freeman, who was

selected as the Big East Confer-

ence’s preseason player of the

year. The 6-foot-3 guard was

an All-Big East Second-Team

selection as a junior, leading the

team in scoring, ranking 11th in

the conference, with 16.5 points

per game.

The DeMatha graduate said

the team is “more focused on the

guards this year,” and with the

addition of five freshmen to a group

of veteran players, this team was

searching for a new identity post-

Monroe.

“It’s a group that, I think, and

coach thinks, we can pretty much

shut people down and be able to

get defensive rebounds,” Free-

man said.

Georgetown, picked in a Big East

coaches poll to finish fourth, is rated

No. 20 in the country by The Asso-

ciated Press and No. 21 by the USA

Today/ESPN Coaches poll.

The Hoyas finished last sea-

son with a 23-11 overall record and

advanced to the Big East cham-

pionship game, their third trip

in six seasons under Thompson.

There’s the boisterous John Wall,

and there’s the thoughtful John

Wall. Both sides to the Washing-

ton Wizards’ rookie point guard

were on full display after the team’s

Thursday afternoon practice at Ver-

izon Center.

Wall’s initial temperament was

that of the reserved, eager student,

Saunders and discussing the game

with guard Gilbert Arenas. Then

The Redskins start the second half

of the season looking up.

They’re looking up at two teams

in the division. They’re looking up

at a remaining schedule featur-

ing six opponents that are cur-

rently .500 or better. And on Mon-

day night, they’ll be looking up at

90,000 fans at FedEx Field who’ll

be wondering how the burgundy

and gold’s season will play out.

With the saga over Donovan

McNabb’s late-game benching in

the Detroit loss still going, the Red-

skins (4-4) surely didn’t get much

quiet during their bye week. Now,

they must find a way to take out a

surging Philadelphia (5-3) squad

that seems to have traded plac-

es with the Redskins since Wash-

ington won their Week 4 match-

up. At that point, the Redskins

had just squeaked out a 17-12 win

and injured Eagles quarterback

Michael Vick in the process. But

Vick Takes off, Not RunningEagles QB’s improved passing skills are key to team’s turnaround

after missing three games, Vick

came back and was impressive

(218 yards passing and 74 yards

rushing) in last weekend’s victo-

ry over perennial Super Bowl con-

tender Indianapolis.

“[Vick] is doing everything

better,” Redskins coach Mike

Shanahan said. “He is executing

the offense better, and he seems

a lot more relaxed in the pocket

going through his reads. He looks

as fast as he did before [going to

prison], which I didn’t think was

possible.”

The Redskins not only have

to plan for Vick’s speed, but also

his improved passing. Vick hasn’t

thrown an interception in 125 pass

attempts this season.

“I feel like he’s playing way better

than he was in Atlanta,” Redskins

linebacker Brian Orakpo said. “He’s

still running the ball, but he’s also

still looking downfield and getting

the ball to his receivers very accu-

rately and able to minimize those

mistakes.”

It would have been hard to imag-

ine this scenario last season, when

Vick was McNabb’s understudy and

used mostly on gimmick plays. Sha-

nahan mostly deflected midweek

questions about McNabb’s health

and his ability to practice the two-

minute offense — two things that

are likely to be tested again Monday,

as the Redskins have played six one-

possession games this season.

Despite the loss in Detroit and

the lingering uncertainty at the

quarterback, the Redskins still

have a chance to make a playoff

run. Already 2-0 in NFC East play,

Washington has four more games

against division opponents and

would be in good position to reach

the postseason if it was able to win

all of those contests.

“By playing the Giants twice

and Philly once, we do control

our own destiny,” Shanahan said.

to work!”

Wall chest-bumped Seraphin

and assistant coach Sam Cas-

sell, and Al Thornton ran to mob

Seraphin with several others.

And the camaraderie after

Wednesday’s 98-91 win over Hous-

ton was never better.

“It’s fun,” Wall said in consider-

ably more hushed tones than when

he was celebrating Seraphin’s dunk.

“I like to have fun every game.”

Wall’s enthusiasm is certain-

ly understandable after the first

triple-double of his career on

Wednesday.

He had 19 points, 13 assists, 10

rebounds and six assists with one

turnover, becoming the second

point guard in the NBA to record

a triple-double with six steals. The

other: Magic Johnson.

The milestones continue to

mount for Wall. He has the most

assists (61) of any player in league

history after six games, surpassing

Oscar Robertson in second place.

“That’s pretty good compa-

ny,” Saunders said. “It’s some-

thing to really build on.” GENE WANG

EAGLES (MINUS 3) AT REDSKINS

I can’t wait to hear what excuse Shanahan

has to offer after this debacle ends in a loss.

Vick playing out of his mind. Redskins are 31st against the pass. This may get ugly — fast.

Not only is Donovan mad, but you never pick against a team off a bye

week.

But I’m betting that McNabb displays tre-

mendous cardiovascu-lar endurance.

JETS (MINUS 3) AT BROWNS

Don’t be fooled by one game. Cleveland won’t

be able to keep up.

Go back up: Did I really get to pick my Browns?

I may not get another chance to do that here.

Inspired by their cos-tumed coach, the Jets decide to dress up like contenders for a week.

COWBOYS (PLUS 14) AT GIANTS

For Redskins fans, any result of this game is a

good thing to see.

I feel guilty for watch-ing. It’s like slowing to look at an accident on

the road .

Believe me, no one knows suffering like we

Browns fans do.

In other news, I predict gravity triumphs over this rock I’m about to

throw into the air.

PATRIOTS (MINUS 4.5) AT STEELERS

The Pats are favored for a reason, and they

need this game a slight bit more.

This will be the Steelers’ first home games vs. NE in five years. Go with the

home team.

Next week the Pats can complete the Rust Belt trifecta by playing the Youngstown State

Penguins.

Randle El may be a ter-rible punt returner,

but he can still throw a pretty pass.

Silence crept through the cabin as

the team flight made its way home

from Miami after Maryland endured

a brutal defeat last Saturday, sur-

rendering the lead in the game’s

final minute.

“There wasn’t a whole lot of

talking going on,” Terrapins coach

Ralph Friedgen said. “We were very

disappointed.”

But at one point someone leaned

in to the big head coach and relayed

an interesting bit of news: Florida

State, one of Maryland’s chief com-

petitors in a muddled ACC Atlantic

Division, had been upset at home by

North Carolina.

Terps Down but Not Totally Outna State and Florida State to finish

out the regular season. Put simply,

win them all and the Terrapins will

seal a spot in Charlotte for the ACC

Championship game, where they’d

likely take on Virginia Tech.

“We’ve been fortunate with how

crazy the Atlantic Division is this

year that we still control our own

destiny,” freshman quarterback

Danny O’Brien said. “If we can just

win one week at a time, things will

be set up for us.”

During a meeting Monday eve-

ning, Friedgen stressed the perils

of underestimating a Virginia team

that has beaten Maryland each of

the last three years.

“At this point of the season,

we usually try to crank it up. But

we need to slow it down, focusing

on each of the remaining games,”

Friedgen said. DEREK TURNER

appeared far less devastating.

After a road game at Virgin-

ia (4-5, 1-4) on Saturday, Mary-

land (6-3, 3-2) hosts North Caroli-

Sat. | ESPN3

Later, North Carolina State,

poised to take the division lead,

fell at Clemson. And so in a span

of hours, Maryland’s loss suddenly

Danny O’Brien (5) loses the ball as he is hit by Miami’s Ramon Buchanan Saturday.

Anyone who has admired the bro-

cade evening gowns, wasp-waist-

ed shirtdresses and dashing dudes’

fedoras on “Mad Men” knows that

fashion plays a starring role in

the show. The AMC hit’s Emmy

Award-winning costume designer,

Janie Bryant, can take the clothes

lion’s share of the credit. The ret-

ro-obsessed stylista just released

a style guide, “The Fashion File”

($27, Grand Central).

Why do a book?I really wanted to teach women how

to dress up. I feel like our customs

have become so casual in the past

20 years, people aren’t used to the

effort it takes to look good.

Isn’t there a danger that women will get overdressed?No. I always think that if you show

up way overdressed, you just claim

to have an amazing party to go to

afterwards.

One thing you talk about in the book is dressing well for your shape. How do you help the gals of “Mad Men” do that?It’s interesting how much the

underpinnings help, how the gir-

dles and long-line bras can change

everything. They create a beauti-

ful line.

How can modern women dress for their body type without wear-ing a Joan Holloway girdle?I think it’s about understanding

your shape and knowing what to

accentuate. If you’ve got an hour-

glass figure, accentuate your waist.

And no matter your shape, get a

great-fitting bra.

Janie Bryant“MAD MEN” COSTUME DESIGNER, VINTAGE FAN

“Mad Men” has ignited an inter-est in 1960s clothes. Why do you think they appeal to women?I think we use fashion to be beau-

tiful, and that period was so lady-

like and elegant.

Don Draper has stirred interest in tailored men’s styles. Why?Well, he looks so gorgeous! It was

such a beautiful, minimal peri-

od, with very narrow collars and

streamlined shapes. It’s elegant,

and I think men have respond-

ed to that.

What advice do you give to men in the book?One thing is that, if you’re a size

42, try on a size 40. So many men

wear their suits too big. I think

they want to seem bigger, but it

has the effect of being sloppy or

ill-fitting. It looks like a man is in

his dad’s suit.

You also give a lot of advice in the book on buying vintage clothing. What’s the key to scoring it?Know your measurements, and

always carry a tape measure. And

if you’re a beginner, a great place

to start is accessories like bags,

jewelry and belts. They add a lit-

tle fun, unique touch.

How do I wear something vintage without looking like my granny?Just wear one piece, like an amaz-

ing shift or little shirt dress. And

then keep everything else contem-

porary — shoes, hair, makeup.

I love my girlfriend. She is beautiful. Clothes are beauti-ful because she wears them. She needs new boots. Hers are scuffed beyond repair and the heels are crumbling. She has very particular taste. She wants them to be black, knee-high, square-toed and with a rectangular/square heel no more than 3.5 inches high. Can you help me buy her something? — DC

Manolo says, while the Manolo ap-

preciates the sentiments which would

inspire one to purchase the feetwear

for the beloved beauty, he must, as

always, caution his friends that proper

shoe fitting is exceedingly difficult

without the presence of the feets in

question, the fact which makes the

giving of the shoes as gifts problem-

atic.

Of the course, if one purchases

from the establishment with the gen-

erous return policy, then such con-

cerns are not prohibitive, and, happily,

it appears that the Manolo’s friend has

carefully studied the tastes and feets

of his beloved and knows what she

likes and needs, which is the sensible

boot for wearing every day.

Here is the Jenny from La Cana-

dienne, the strikingly unadorned boots

that have the advantage of being

weather-proof ( $298, Zappos.com).

ANSWERS FROM THE SHOE BLOGGER

Apron AptitudeIT MAY BE SWEET that Dad wants to cook the turkey this year, but how’s

he going to know how if he’s donning a “Kiss the Cook” apron? Rather than

making him Google how to boil water or unearth his 500-page cookbook

from 1964, get him a guide he can glance at with all the possible cheat

sheets a serious chef (or ambitious amateur) can need. Suck UK’s apron

cooking guide ($32, Greenergrassdesign.com) is a clever and resourceful

way to get conversion charts and cooking clues just by looking down.

Skirting the IssueDEAR MR. LAGERFELD: It has come to our attention that a

dangerous trend is surfacing among women. Not only are they

wearing hideous cable-knit turtlenecks, but they’re also don-

ning skirts that plunge far below the knee, revealing nothing but

boots. We kindly ask that you encourage women to buy mini-

skirts yet again, perhaps silk ones like this one by Naven ($163,

Urban Chic; 1626 Wisconsin Ave. NW; 202-338-5398), part of a

1980s-ish line new in the store. Respectfully Yours, Men.

A cool million. Though properties in

D.C. seem priced for Donald Trump,

Mary and Shelly Klein’s house pillows

(shown, $155, Uncommongoods.com)

amount to a considerable, um, soft-

ening in the real estate market. The

puffs, shaped sort of like Arlington

Cape Cods, give homey charm even if

you bunk in a Rockville studio.

Lime sofas, orange walls, pink rugs — have you ever met a hue you didn’t think worked in interior design?It’s funny; I love color. I think it’s

a complete antidepressant! I think

people should throw out their Pro-

zac and OD on color. But I can’t

imagine myself ever loving mauve.

I like my colors crisp and bright.

But how can I use color and not abuse it at home?It’s a tricky business. The key is

to choose a palette or color values

that work together. There are cer-

tain schemes that always work,

like gray, orange and white can be

repeated ad infinitum.

Is color something you should match to your personality or hair color?I think it’s a form of nonverbal

communication, so maybe. There

JENNIFER BARGER (EXPRESS)

are certain associations that come

with color, like if you want to send

a message of danger or sexiness,

use red. Colors have meaning, and

to some degree, if you are in touch

with who you are, you can use color

to reflect that.

Are there any colors on the way out or in?For the last several years, it’s been

all about chocolate brown, and

I’ve liked putting it with pops of

color. But lately, I’ve been cheat-

ing on it with gray. Gray is amaz-

ing because it looks fantastic paired

with bright colors.

Jonathan Adler thinks you can mix several colors if they’re the same level of saturation, as in this bedroom.

What inspires your furniture designs?Millions of things. In terms of

inspiration, it’s really vast and odd.

I could be inspired by some groovy

skateboard graphic, or I sometimes

wake up with things that come to

me in my sleep. Like, I’ve just done

a new peacock menorah, and that

came to me in a sleep state. I’m

really into multitasking!

What’s your design philosophy?I’d call it happy chic. It’s my belief

that your home should make you

happy.

And you’re quite down on minimalism.It’s a bummer! But having said

that, I’m a minimalist when I

design objects. I believe that design

should have an economy of ges-

ture. I don’t believe in gilding

the lily. But in interiors, I’m a

maximalist! I think it can be con-

stricting to your spirit to not sur-

round yourself with the stuff that

you love.

What are your basic rules of combining accessories?The most important thing is just to

start. So often people think there’s

a magic answer, but that’s not the

case. Get a bunch of objects, and

start to play with them. There are

go-to formulas, like starting with

symmetry. But asymmetry is more

challenging, but can have great-

er rewards.

How do I decide which accessories to buy?If you think it’s something that your

heirs will fight over, splurge.

Arranging similar ac-cessories in groups or pairs adds up to a visual pop — as op-posed to a bunch of messy clutter.

Cool and Collected“AIEEEEE, WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE” usually makes for a pretty good movie

(see: “Unstoppable,” right). Even if it’s

a bad film, you at least want to see: (a)

how we’ll die and (b) how to stop our-

selves from dying.

On the other hand, “Guys, chill, it’s

going to be FINE” is not necessarily

the greatest premise.

Which is why “Cool It,”

out Friday, falters. The

film focuses on Bjorn

Lomborg, author of

“The Skeptical Environ-

mentalist,” and is kind

of a response to “An

Inconvenient Truth.”

While “Truth” made me want to

move in with my grandmother in

Wichita, Kan. (to avoid the suppos-

edly oncoming flood), “Cool It” follows

Lomborg as he explains that what

we’re doing to fight global warming

isn’t working, but it’s OK because

global warming isn’t that bad. He says

addressing other problems — malaria,

clean water, etc. — would better ben-

efit the world than everyone switching

to low-flow toilets. (He does not, how-

ever, dispute global warming as fact.)

I don’t know whether Lomborg is

right, but what I do know is a person’s

making reasoned points doesn’t lend

itself to a nail-biter of a film. Director

Ondi Timoner tries to add drama by

showing us snippets of Lomborg’s

personal life. (He loves his mom! He’s

vegetarian!) But he’s working with

someone who at his core is likeable,

but calm. And box-office smashes —

often like political offices — belong to

those who shout the loudest.

Director Tony Scott achieves some-

thing close to the action movie in its

ideal form with “Unstoppable,” which

can be summed up thusly: Train out of

control! Must stop train!

Cinematic narrative doesn’t get any

simpler than that, and Scott wisely

keeps the premise pure, ratcheting up

the tension and raising the emotional

stakes without cluttering up the story’s

sleek lines. A young, inexperienced rail-

road conductor named Will (Chris Pine)

is on his first shift with veteran train

operator Frank (Denzel Washington)

on the same day that a train carrying

tons of hazardous materials has been

sent hurtling down its tracks without a

conductor or functioning brakes.

With the help of a coolheaded train

executive named Connie (Rosario Daw-

son), who keeps in near constant contact

with the men, Will and Frank narrowly

escape colliding with what she calls “a

missile the size of the Chrysler Build-

ing.” Out of harm’s way, their next pri-

ority is to chase the errant locomotive

down and stop it before it hits a dan-

gerous S-curve and crashes in the mid-

dle of a busy Pennsylvania city.

As he did with his last movie, “The

Taking of Pelham 123,” Scott proves a

master of action with “Unstoppable,”

which sustains a nicely simmering level

of suspense and physical peril with-

out succumbing to bombast or deaf-

ening overkill.

This might be the quietest action

movie ever made, and that observation

is meant as a compliment: The audi-

ence can actually hear what the char-

acters are saying, which in the case of

Will and Frank at first mostly consists

of the grizzled vet hazing the babyfaced

newbie, then gives way to more soulful

conversation about family and girl trou-

bles. Washington and Pine quickly gen-

erate a bantering, easy rapport as lilting

as the train they’re on; if “Unstoppa-

ble” occasionally threatens to become

the Battle of the Blinding White Smiles,

those moments offer welcome warmth

and improbable humor.

In Scott’s capable hands, though,

even the machines take on biomor-

phic qualities: He gives the runaway

train its own moaning, menacing

“voice” that makes it a character in

its own right.

“Unstoppable” was inspired by a

similar real-life case in Ohio in 2001,

but Scott throws in plenty of extra cliff-

hangers, among them a separate train

filled with field-tripping schoolkids and

a horse trailer bestriding the tracks.

While Will and Frank try to avoid

being, as Frank says, “a wreck on a

wreck,” Connie is trying to outmaneu-

ver her corporate bosses, whose con-

cerns lie less with public safety or their

employees’ well-being than with their

stock devaluations. A subtext of corpo-

rate greed, Rust Belt despair and com-

mon-man integrity rumbles alongside

the movie’s action, lending a sharp pang

of timeliness to the adrenaline-pumping

escapism. From the story itself to the

way it’s told, “Unstoppable” is a hymn

to stylish, unpretentious competence.

Dino De Laurentiis, an Academy

Award-winning film impresario

and producer of “Serpico” and

“Barbarella,” who helped revolu-

tionize the way films are bankrolled

and sold, has died. He was 91.

The producer’s daughter said

her father was surrounded by

family when he died Wednes-

day night at his home in Bever-

ly Hills. The statement from Raf-

faella De Laurentiis did not give a

cause of death.

Granddaughter Giada De Lau-

rentiis, a Food Network host, said

Thursday: “My grandfather was a

true inspiration. He was my big-

gest champion in life and a con-

stant source for wisdom and advice.

I will miss him dearly.”

De Laurentiis was a legend of

Italian New Wave filmmaking. His

works also included “Bitter Rice,”

‘’La Strada” and “Death Wish.”

He was tiny, but tough, a ver-

itable Napoleon on the set. “Such

a little lion,” was how his second

wife, producer Martha De Lauren-

tiis, put it when he turned 80.

Throughout his career, he alter-

nated lavish, big-budget produc-

tions with less commercial films

by directors such as Robert Alt-

man, Ingmar Bergman and David

Lynch. JAKE COYLE (AP)

It’s never a good idea to cast Bill

Nighy as a buttoned-down hit man.

Not because of the hit man part —

that’s pure genius — but the but-

toned-down bit. The British actor is

at his best when playing people who

are at least a little bit raffish and

mad. Think of Quentin in “Pirate

Radio,” Davy Jones in the “Pirates

of the Caribbean” films and Billy

Mack in “Love Actually.”

So, although it’s always a plea-

sure to see Nighy again, his perfor-

mance as ultra-professional assas-

sin Victor Maynard in the largely

breezeless black comedy “Wild Tar-

get” is a letdown. The film itself

boasts a fine supporting cast, but

as the glue holding the whole thing

together, Nighy would be far bet-

ter off were he allowed to become

a little more unglued.

As it is, Nighy’s Victor is a stuffy

old bore. He practices language

drills while dispatching his victims.

It’s a job for him, not a joy.

But when Victor’s latest vic-

tim, Rose (Emily Blunt, play-

ing a thief), proves a little hard-

er to kill than he’s used to, Victor

somewhat implausibly takes her

under his wing, along with a young

man named Tony (Rupert Grint),

who has stumbled upon Victor

with the gun in his hand. Victor

explains it away by saying he’s a

private detective. Why he doesn’t

just shoot them both is never ade-

quately explained.

So, he’s gone soft. Whatever.

When the mobster hires a second

assassin (Martin Freeman) to finish

Victor’s job, and kill Victor, the three

fugitives — Victor, Rose and Tony,

collectively the film’s “wild” target

— go on the lam. MICHAEL O’SULLIVAN

Bill Nighy is a letdown as the dark comedy’s buttoned-up hit man

“127 Hours” tells the true story of

Aron Ralston, a climber who in

2003 became trapped in a slot can-

yon in Utah’s Canyonlands Nation-

al Park, his right arm pinned under

a falling boulder. Most of the buzz

about the movie, which stars James

Franco as Ralston, centers on the

film’s climax, when Ralston breaks

and then amputates his own arm in

order to escape certain death.

Early reports of audience mem-

bers’ passing out notwithstand-

ing, that harrowing event actual-

ly accounts for a very brief, albeit

jarringly realistic, episode in “127

Hours.” And although Ralston’s act

of desperation is admittedly diffi-

cult to watch, viewers who might

avoid the film out of squeamish-

ness would be depriving themselves

of one of the year’s most exhilarat-

ing cinematic experiences.

Having directed “Slumdog Mil-

lionaire” and now this, British film-

maker Danny Boyle has solidified

his stature as an artist possessed

of a singular gift for aestheticizing

misery. With a nervy, vivid visual

style and a commitment to human-

ism at its most life-affirming, Boyle

One man’s harrowing true story becomes a tribute to humanism in the vivid ‘127 Hours’

makes the unbearable not just

endurable, but beautiful.

Franco delivers the perfor-

mance of a still-promising career.

Starting with the sublime TV show

“Freaks and Geeks” through

“Milk” and now “127 Hours,”

Franco has proved his bona fides

as an actor whose gifts run deep-

er than mere boyish charisma. He

carries this film with the same life

force and emotions that animate

Ralston himself, as he first tries

to prevent, then make peace with

and finally take charge of his fate.

Sure, we can vote, drink legally and

do other adult stuff, but in aggregate,

being a grown-up can sometimes feel

overrated. Between taxes; not leav-

ing the office until the sun has long

descended; and navigating the dating,

mating and relationship game, some-

times some dodgeball, Nintendo and

cookies seem more appealing. And

this is why RECESS ($10, 5 p.m.; Aloft,

156 Waterfront St., Oxon Hill, Md.;

you play like a kid, but you can also

partake of some of the few things that

are worthwhile about adulthood. With

a live DJ, specialty drinks and every

classic game from Monopoly to Twist-

er, it’s a formula that encourages min-

gling and letting off steam.

CONVICTION (R, 107 minutes) Hilary

Swank plays the dutiful hero, Betty

Anne Waters, in this solid but less-than-

sublime courtroom drama, inspired by

the true story of a working-class woman

who put herself through law school in an

effort to clear the name of her brother

Kenny (Sam Rockwell), who in 1983 was

convicted of murder. As Betty Anne,

Swank is a diligent, if drudgelike, hero.

Like her character, the actress tackles

her assignment by putting her nose

down and plodding ahead, as if there

were something noble in simply making

the effort. There is, of course, but it’s not

always enough. M.O.

DUE DATE (R, 95 minutes) With “Due

Date,” director Todd Phillips perfects

the particular brand of comic alchemy.

Like “The Hangover,” this film features

mismatched guys who don’t know each

other very well on a road trip punctuated

by ever-more-outrageous and physically

painful mishaps. Of course, the main

thing the film has in common with “The

Hangover” is Zach Galifianakis, the portly

comedian who betrays uncommon grace

despite his heavy frame. He’s a hirsute,

gloriously unself-conscious man-child,

unfettered by the laws that govern the

rest of us, including those of good taste,

social interaction and gravity itself. That

pretty much sums up Ethan Tremblay,

Galifianakis’ character who meets archi-

tect Peter Highman (Robert Downey Jr.)

at the Atlanta airport. The two embark on

a cross-country car trip so that Peter can

attend the birth of his first child. A.H.

FAIR GAME (PG-13, 104 minutes) Naomi

Liman steers clear of re-litigating the leak

of Plame’s name to the media during the

Bush administration, instead focusing on

how her being a spy, and then being outed,

affected Plame’s marriage to Joe Wilson

(Sean Penn). The film begins in Kuala Lum-

pur, where Plame works for the CIA. After

a dicey situation in which she persuades a

local contact to become an informer, she

returns home. Soon, Plame is reassigned

to work on a task force studying whether

Saddam Hussein possesses weapons of

mass destruction. M.O.

FOR COLORED GIRLS (R, 120 minutes)

At first glance, this film seems aimed

squarely at the audience of the “woman

good, man bad” melodramas. The men

in Tyler Perry’s adaptation of Ntozake

Shange’s stage play include a rapist

(Khalil Kain), a child murderer/wife beater

(Michael Ealy), a serial cheater (Richard

Lawson) and a closeted gay man (Omari

Hardwick) who dips into his wife’s bank

account. And that’s not even counting

the minor jerks from this dated relic of

the women’s empowerment movement,

written in 1975 as a series of free-verse

monologues with dance, but rewritten by

Perry to fit a more traditional narrative

structure. But rather than portraying

strong, successful women, the film pres-

ents its female characters primarily as

helpless victims and dupes. M.O.

THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNET’S NEST (R, 148 minutes) The final, deeply

satisfying conclusion to the trilogy of

Swedish thrillers based on Stieg Lars-

son’s best-selling novels follows Lisbeth

Salander (Noomi Rapace), the series’

computer-hacker heroine and titular

hornet’s nest kicker, after movie No. 2 left

her shot in three places and barely breath-

ing. Lisbeth spends the entire first half

of “Hornet’s Nest” merely recuperating

from her injuries and preparing to face a

charge of attempted murder in the axing

of her father (Georgi Staykov). Yes, he’s a

bad man. He has also been protected by

a secret government cabal that resorts

to threats and murder. M.O.

HERE A F T ER (PG-13, 129 minutes)

“Hereafter” plays like a smart and stylish

thriller. Smart because of the way it pulls

back from a full-on embrace of its central

premise: the existence of an afterlife for

the human soul. Stylish because of its cool

and bloodless demeanor. At the center of

the mostly mesmerizing but finally flawed

film is George Lonegan (Matt Damon). In

the script by two-time Oscar nominee

Peter Morgan, which has been directed

with restraint by Clint Eastwood, George

is a former professional psychic who has

shut down his lucrative Bay Area practice

to work as a menial laborer. His ability to

talk to the dead through readings is less

the gift one might think. M.O.

INSIDE JOB (PG-13, 108 minutes) “Inside

Job” traces the history of the 2008 finan-

cial meltdown and its implications with

exceptional lucidity, rigor and righteous

indignation. What’s more, Charles Fergu-

son actually breaks news, uncovering the

shady world of academic economists

who, as paid consultants for the very

banks they write seemingly objective

research papers about, are part of theContinued on page 36

Naomi Watts reveals the unglamorous side of life as a spy in “Fair Game.”

other’s guts. Holly Berenson (Heigl) and

Eric Messer (Duhamel) — or “Mess,” as

he is aptly known — move in together

and try to make the best of a stupid situ-

ation. A.H.

MEGAMIND (PG, 90 minutes) At the

center of this utterly delightful film

is its eponymous hero — er, villain — a

blue-skinned alien who was sent to

Earth as a baby when his home planet

exploded. Unlike his superhero nemesis,

Metro Man (voice of Brad Pitt), Megamind

(Will Ferrell) did not grow up with “the

power of flight, invulnerability and great

hair,” as he so bitterly puts it. Instead,

Megamind has had to learn to get by on

the powers that reside within his giant,

bald cranium. That, and showmanship.

Unfortunately, Megamind is less evil

genius than evil underachiever. Mega-

mind is brought to life with every ounce

of Ferrell’s comic might in this sharply

satiric, deftly written twist on the su-

perhero trope. M.O.

RED (PG-13, 111 minutes) Bruce Willis plays

Frank, a former black ops agent now liv-

ing in quiet desperation in Cleveland and

enjoying a long-distance phone flirtation

with Sarah (Mary-Louise Parker), the

woman who mails his retirement check.

When Frank is unexpectedly visited by a

lethal “wet team,” he realizes his life is

in danger, and he seeks to reassemble

his old cohort of assassins: Joe (Morgan

Freeman), who Frank busts out of a nurs-

ing home in New Orleans; Marvin (John

Malkovich), who’s living in flashback-

induced paranoia on the Gulf Coast; and

Victoria (Helen Mirren), who bakes tea

cakes but longs to get back into the life

of kill shots. A.H.

SECRETARIAT (PG, 116 minutes) It’s

tough to guess who will enjoy “Secretari-

at” more — filmgoers who remember the

extraordinary events of 1973, when the

chestnut 3-year-old won the first Triple

Crown in 25 years, or those for whom the

story is brand-new. Secretariat, known

to his owners and intimates as Big Red,

is at first is so slow “he couldn’t beat

a fat man encased in cement being

dragged backwards by a freight train,”

according to his trainer (John Malkovich).

But his owner believes in him: Penny

Chenery Tweedy, a Denver homemaker

who inherits her father’s Virginia horse

farm and battles the horse racing es-

tablishment to champion Big Red. A.H.

THE SOCIAL NETWORK (PG-13, 122

minutes) When a talky movie’s talk has

been written by Aaron Sorkin (“The

West Wing”), and those words have been

animated by the visual brio of director

David Fincher, what looks on paper like

a static series of dead-end conversa-

tions comes to life as a vital, engaging,

even urgent parable for our age. As the

dramatized story of Facebook founder

Mark Zuckerberg, the film can’t be taken

as the literal record of events — which

involved Zuckerberg being sued by his

partners and competitors. Sorkin and

Fincher bring viewers along on an infec-

tiously giddy journey of discovery and

invention. A.H.

WALL STREET: MONEY NEVER SLEEPS (PG-13, 133 minutes) Michael Douglas

makes a triumphant return to form as

one of American cinema’s great villains,

Gordon Gekko, in the 23-years-later se-

quel to the movie that captured the go-go

’80s. In its own way, this film evinces just

as strong a hold on its times, when terms

like “subprime,” “insurance swaps” and

“credit default swaps” — phrases that

would have been meaningless two de-

cades ago — are the lingua franca of the

financial realm. The crimes that Gekko

went to jail for in Oliver Stone’s original

film now seem like child’s play compared

with the shady deals his spiritual heirs

have confected in the years since he was

imprisoned. A.H.

Stars in Your EyesBluebrain’s long-form, chaotic pop music is trippy

at the best of times. Listening to its concert at the

Brown Planetarium,

watching the stars

spin above you, is

almost certain to

totally blow your

mind. The concert is

a fundraiser for the

planetarium, which

is hosting a series of

concerts this week-

end to keep from

having to close its doors.

David Brown Planetarium, 1426 N. Quincy St., Arlington; Fri., 7 p.m., $15 suggested donation for adults and $5 for children; Bluebra.in. (Virginia Square)

Traffic PatternsLike the robins roosting in

springtime, the sight of a

tweed-clad flock of cyclists has

become a comforting autumn

tradition. Every November, they

descend en masse — polite,

charming and shiny-shoed — for

the annual Tweed Ride. So, put

on your best tailcoat and join in —

there’s even an after-party that’ll

feature ’20s swing music, Dandy

Wellington and a vintage-bike

inspired fashion show. The ride is

free; tickets to the party are $25.

Picture ThisFotoWeek DC is over, and our

favorite way to mourn any-

thing is to go to a party at the Swedish

Embassy and dance to the Fatback

DJs. That’s definitely how we mourn-

ed the death of newspapers last week.

And the week before that. Anyway,

since it is FotoWeek, it’s also the cul-

mination of the “Picture the Potomac”

contest, in which you can register

to send in river photos you’ve taken

on your phone. The pictures sent in

will be projected on the embassy’s

You might want to send the kids to bed when the

“30 Rock” star takes the stage for this HBO spe-

cial. Taped before a live audience at the Apollo

Theater in New York, the special features

Morgan giving his no-holds-barred take on

race relations, fame and more.

(CW) Never one to shy away from

stunt casting, the series brings in Teri Hatcher,

former star of “Lois & Clark,” to play Lois’ late

mom, Ella. After viewing a tape that Ella made

before she died, Lois comes to a decision about

her relationship with Clark (Tom Welling, left).

(ABC) Just about every mom has said it: “I’ve only

got two hands!” The mom in this episode could definitely use another

pair — or three. She has a newborn son and three rambunctious boys

— ages 5, 3 and 2 — and the newborn’s needs are being neglected.

(PBS) Simmer down, “X-Men” fans. “Wolverine: Chasing the

Phantom” actually takes an up-close look at the largest and — argu-

ably — least-known member of the weasel family. (TRIBUNE MEDIA)

Sarah Palin holds her son Trig in a scene from TLC’s series “Sarah Palin’s Alaska.”

DIS

CO

VE

RY

It’s not clear what a former

vice presidential candi-

date wants to accomplish

with “Sarah Palin’s Alaska.” And

it’s not clear she does, either. But

one thing is certain: This is very

much a TLC show, and TLC is in

the business of creating cheaply

produced sitcoms masquerading

as reality shows.

At first, “Alaska” follows the

“Jon & Kate Plus 8” model, with

the half-term governor helping her

youngest make cupcakes. Then it

becomes a bit of a nature-and-travel

series, with the Palins fishing, trav-

eling in an RV and even climbing

the vast state’s highest peaks.

Like most sitcoms, most of the

action takes place in and around

the home. Following in the foot-

steps of early MTV comedy-reali-

ty star Jessica Simpson, Sarah set-

tles into domesticity with nonstop

chatter and cute if dubious antics —

like using a baby gate to keep teen-

age boys from climbing upstairs

— all accompanied by goofy car-

toonish music.

Conservatives of the Palin stripe

admire plain speaking and share

a disdain for second-guessing. But

Palin’s many utterances indicate

that she is incapable of shifting her

brain into gear before taking her

mouth out of park. She complains of

critics “invading her privacy” while

hosting a reality TV show.

As a spokeswoman for Alaska,

Palin says words like “gosh” and

“awesome” quite often. There’s a

lot of pointing and exclaiming, like

that in a children’s primer of the

“Sally, Dick & Jane” variety. See

Sarah fish! See Sarah text! KEVIN

‘Thanks, Palin!’Widely regarded as one of the funniest women in show busi-ness, Tina Fey receives one of comedy’s top awards in “The Mark Twain Prize” presentation (9 p.m. on PBS). She’s cheered on at the event — which was taped Tuesday night at the Kennedy Center — by former “Saturday Night Live” colleagues Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler, along with “30 Rock” co-stars Jane Krakowski and Tracy Morgan.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Business

endeavors are favored, but things may

not move quite as quickly as you would

like. Patience is a virtue — and a tool.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You can get more done in the wee hours

than anyone else can throughout the

entire day. You have to want to do it,

however.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Your focus may not be squarely on the

right things, but this doesn’t mean you

can’t enjoy certain rewards.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You can

do more with your money than you

expected; still, a certain level of caution

is advised when you are dealing with

large amounts.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) It may be

tricky getting others to do what you

want them to do; how you do it is more

important than anything else.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your approach is likely to be quite dif-

ferent from anyone else’s and can have

lasting effects that you had not antic-

ipated.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You may

require a little help in the way of sug-

gestion or other hints. Soon you can

turn right around and return the favor.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your inter-

nal rhythms may be out of whack at this

time, for some unknown reason. The

more you try to solve the problem, the

worse it gets.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) The best

thing you can do to conquer a current

problem is to leave it alone — at least

for the time being. It may burn itself out.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Someone in

charge may be waiting for you to do

something that you never committed to

doing. It’s a simple misunderstanding

that you can resolve.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You may be

struck with inspiration at the strangest

times during the day — or night. No mat-

ter when, you must be ready to act.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) The key to a

current mystery lies in the palm of your

hand. You’re ready to solve it for good,

but you may not even know it just yet.

Fill in each column, row and 3x3 box with the

digits 1 through 9 without repeating any. The

twist in Samurai Sudoku is that the digits that

appear in the overlapping boxes must work

for both puzzles. A piece of advice to get you

started: Don’t focus on completing one grid

at a time. Keep the whole puzzle in mind as

you go, because filling in a number in one grid

could give you clues to another.

Angelina Jolie opens up about her home life in the Decem-ber issue of Vogue, giving readers a glimpse inside the six-child Jolie-Pitt household. Jolie says she feels her oldest son, Maddox, now 9, almost raised her in a way. Maddox encourages her when she cooks breakfast, saying, “Good job!” She also talks about daughter Shiloh, who recent-ly found a dead bird and wanted to keep it for a pet. Jolie’s answer: Find a bird from a taxidermist instead. (AP)

So, Are You or Aren’t You Engaged? Wait, You Are?LeAnn Rimes continued to assert

her non-engaged status at the CMAs

Wednesday, telling the Tennessean

that the rumor “is insanity.” “I don’t

know how many times I have to say it,”

she said. “I say ‘no’ and people think we

are and I’m just not admitting it.” She

has recently been disputing the claim

via Twitter that she and boyfriend

Eddie Cibrian are betrothed. (EXPRESS)
