A critical compromise to head off
a year-end tax increase for mil-
lions of Americans took shape in
private talks between the White
House and congressional Repub-
licans Thursday, and an extension
of unemployment benefits for many
others appeared likely to become
part of any deal.
The Obama administration
sought to expand the package
with other provisions that offi-
cials said would accelerate the
nations sluggish economic recov-
ery. They included a tax break pro-
viding as much as $400 for individ-
ual working people and $800 for
couples even if they pay noth-
ing to the IRS.
Two days after he and newly
empowered Republicans exchanged
pledges of cooperation at the White
House, President Obama expressed
optimism about the prospects for
agreement in time for enactment
by years end. Still, he cautioned,

at higher incomes. The measure has
no chance of passing the Senate, and
Obama has already signaled he will

The bill passed, 234-188, large-
ly along party lines. The vote was
followed by a meeting to discuss

Celebration, Disneys master-
planned, picture-perfect central
Florida community, has never
reported a homicide in its 14-year
existence until this week.
Residents of the town f ive
miles south of Walt Disney World
woke up Tuesday to the sight of
yellow crime-scene tape wrapped
around a condo near the Christ-
mas-decorated downtown, where
Bing Crosby croons from speakers
hidden in the foliage. A 58-year-
old neighbor who lived alone
with his Chihuahua had been
slain over the long Thanksgiving
weekend, Osceola County sher-
iffs deputies said.
The communit ys famous
friendliness is what brought inves-
tigators to Matteo Giovandittos
body: Neighbors hadnt seen him
for days, so they filed a missing
persons report, then went into his
condo a day later and found him.
A few years ago, a resident joked
with a reporter that Celebration

would feel like a real town when
a bike was stolen. Now, it has an
unsolved killing on its hands.
As word of the homicide blew
around town like the leaves from
the maple trees that line the side-
walks, people started to worry.
Officials were quick to soothe
people who live here: Even with
the killer still at large, there was
no need to worry; no, not here.
Giovandittos death was an isolat-
ed incident, said Twis Lizasuain,
a sheriffs spokeswoman.
We dont believe the safety of
the residents is in jeopardy, Liza-
suain said. TAMARA LUSH (AP)

House Censures N.Y. Rep. Rangel
Veteran Rep. Charles Rangel, the
raspy-voiced, backslapping former
chairman of one of Congress most
powerful committees, was censured
by his House col-
leagues for finan-
cial misconduct
Thursday i n a
solemn moment
of humiliation in
the sunset of his
career.
After the 333-
79 vote, the Democrat from New
Yorks Harlem stood at the front of
the House and faced Speaker Nancy
Pelosi as she read him the formal
resolution of censure.
Responding, he admitted he
had made mistakes and said he
was sorry he had put fellow House
members in an embarrassing posi-
tion. But he suggested the winds of
politics were involved as well.
In my heart, I truly feel good,
Rangel said. A lot of it has to do
with the fact that I know in my
heart that I am not going to be
judged by this Congress, but I am
going to be judged by my life.
It was only the 23rd time in the
nations history that a House mem-
ber received the most severe pun-
ishment short of expulsion.
I brought it on to myself, he
said of his troubles. (AP)

Backstory
With 11,000 residents, Celebration
is something of an anomaly in Central
Florida. Theres no suburban sprawl
the entire place is reminiscent of
a quaint New England village. Disney
relinquished control of Celebration
several years ago; the town is now
maintained like any other in Osceola
County. But it still retains theme
park-like flourishes: a colorful kiosk
sells tickets to a little train that fer-
ries children and adults around town,
and tourists in Disney shirts roam the
streets and take photos. (AP)

A FIREFI0HTER STANDS close to the blaze on Thursday that has charred at least 1,600 acres in northern Israel.
Unusually hot and parched conditions contributed to the rapid spread of the worst forest fire in Israels history, and an investi-
gation is under way into what sparked the fire. The death toll rose to at least 36 after a bus racing to evacuate inmates from an
Israeli prison burst into flames, killing dozens of prison guards, officials said. Thousands fled ahead of the fire. (AP)

UN Agency: 2010 Likely a Top Scorcher
A scorching summer that killed

melt, had an annual average tem-
perature of 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit
above normal, said the WMOs pre-
liminary report, released on the
sidelines of a 193-nation U.N. con-
ference on climate change.
The WMO sai d t he same

events cannot be directly traced
to climate change, said Michel
Jarraud, WMOs secretary-gener-
al. But the trend leaves little doubt
the Earth is warming in ways that
cannot be explained by nature,
he said.
Jarraud said temperatures
through October were at near-re-
cord levels this year. November and
December data will be analyzed in
early 2011 but are expected to be
colder than normal.
Still, there is a significant pos-
sibility 2010 could be the warmest

Sangin, Afghanistan, has been the deadliest district for coalition forces this year.
Clear, hold and build is the offi-
cial formula for fighting the Tali-
ban, but in this southern river val-
ley, the most dangerous place in
Afghanistan, the experts say you
have to be a realist to succeed.
That may mean coordinat-
ing with the Taliban to get their
approval for development projects
and accepting that money may end
up in insurgents pockets.
The U.S. Marines and British
civilian advisers in Helmand prov-
inces Sangin district are trying to
build roads and schools in an area
that teems with insurgents and
crackles with gunfire and explosions
from daily Taliban attacks.
Im definitely not trying to
build the shining city upon a hill
here, said Lt. Karl Kadon, 25, head
of civil affairs for the Marine bat-
talion in Sangin. Im just trying
to build something that is sta-
ble enough that its not going to
bother us.
Even that is a daunting task.
The Marines arrived in Sangin in
October after four years of fight-
ing by British forces that suffered
heavy casualties and struggled to
Coalition forces seek
to nurture stability in
deadly Afghan area
Sangn, Afghanstan
show progress.
Now roughly a dozen Marine
civil affairs operatives and Brit-
ish government advisers there
must maneuver through a mine-
field of competing forces: corrupt
contractors, greedy tribal elders,
insurgents, Taliban shadow gov-
ernment officials and, most pow-
erful of all, drug lords.
The group sees the whole point
of its effort as building up public
trust in the local government, tough
to do in a district that is almost
entirely controlled by Taliban fight-
ers. Sangin has also been the dead-
liest district in Afghanistan for
coalition forces this year.
Lt. Col. Jason Morris, com-
mander of the 3rd Battalion, 5th
Marine Regiment in Sangin, sees
one bright spot: Things have been
bad in Sangin for so long that they
cant get worse.
In Sangin, you can almost only
go up, Morris said. (AP)

Army criminal investigators are
probing how eight sets of cre-
mated remains came to be bur-
ied in a single grave site at Arling-

in a series of revelations that have
marred the reputation of the coun-
trys most prestigious military buri-

The investigation was launched

Program, became aware of ques-

officials discovered that eight sets
of remains were buried under a sin-

Condon said Thursday.
In June, the Armys inspector
general released a scathing report
that found widespread problems
at the cemetery, including more
than 200 unmarked or misidenti-
fied graves and at least four urns
that had been unearthed.
Those problems were likely
caused by human error, officials
said. But the discovery of eight urns
in a single grave site is not likely a
mistake, said Christopher Grey, a
spokesman for the Armys Crimi-
nal Investigation Command.
It demanded an investigation
to determine if theres any crim-
inality involved in the burials.

All life on Earth from microbes to
elephants and humans is based on
a single genetic model that requires
the element phosphorus as one of its
six essential components.
But now researchers have uncov-
ered a bacterium that has five of those
essential elements but has, in effect,
replaced phosphorus with its look-alike
but toxic cousin arsenic.
News of the discovery caused a sci-
entific commotion, including calls to
NASA from the White House and Con-
gress asking whether a second line of
earthly life has been found.
A NASA press conference Thursday
and an accompanying article in the
journal Science, gave the answer: No,
the discovery does not prove the exis-
tence of a second genesis on Earth.
But the discovery very much opens
the door to that possibility and to the
related existence of a theorized shad-
ow biosphere on Earth life evolved
from a different common ancestor than
all that weve known so far.
Our findings are a reminder that
life-as-we-know-it could be much more
flexible than we generally assume or
can imagine, said Felisa Wolfe-Simon,
the biochemist who led the effort after
being selected as a NASA Astrobiolo-
gy Research Fellow and as a member
of the National Astrobiology Institute
team at Arizona State University.
The research, funded through NASA
and conducted with samples from Cal-
ifornias Mono Lake, found that some
of the bacteria not only used arse-
nic to live, but had arsenic embedded
into their DNA, RNA and other basic
underpinnings.
This is different from anything
weve seen before, said Mary Voytek,
senior scientist for NASAs program
in astrobiology, the arm of the agen-
cy involved specifically in the search
for life beyond Earth and for how life
began here.
Chemist Steven Benner of the Foun-
dation for Applied Molecular Evolution
in Florida who has been involved in
shadow biosphere research for sev-
eral years, says that the Mono Lake
results are intriguing.
I do not see any simple explanation
for the reported results that is broadly
consistent with other information well
known to chemistry, he said, but add-
ing the results are not yet proven. His
conclusion: It remains to be established
that this bacterium uses arsenate as a
Mono Lake is homes to a bacterium that relies on arsenic rather than phosphorous
to survive, according to NASA and an accompanying article in the journal Science.
Why
Mono
Lake7
Lfe, as We Ddn't
Bnow It
The discovery of bacteria that use
a different chemical building block in
their structure stretches the scientific
definition of life.
The lake receives
run-off from the
Sierra Nevada
mountains,
which have
relatively high
concentrations
of arsenic. When
the water arrives
at Mono Lake,
it has nowhere
to go because
there are no
rivers carrying
water further
downstream.
That means the
arsenic, and
other elements
and compounds,
can concentrate
to unusally high
levels. ( TWP)
The Common Version
Six main chemical building blocks were
thought to be necessary for life: carbon,
hydrogen, phosphorus, nitrogen and
sulfur.
An Alternate Version
The bacteria scooped from arsenic-
laden Mono Lake in California as a
building block instead of phosphorus.
So What?
In addition to making sci-fi writers
salivate, the discover means scientists
must think more broadly about what life
can be made of, and by extension, where
it could exist.

replacement for phosphate in its DNA
or in any other biomolecule.
Nonetheless, the paper and its
results have created an excitement rem-
iniscent of the 1995 announcement at
NASA headquarters of the discovery of
apparent signs of ancient life in a mete-
orite from Mars found in Antarctica.
That finding was central to establish-
ing the field of astrobiology, but was
also broadly challenged and a scientif-
ic consensus evolved that the case for
signs of life in the meteorite had not
been proven.
The Mono Lake discovery high-
lights one of the central challeng-
es of astrobiology knowing what
to look for in terms of extraterres-
trial life. While it remains uncertain
whether the lakes microbes repre-
sent another line of life, they show
that organisms can have a chemical
architecture different from what is
currently understood to be possible.

These days, the Redskins best
chance to score is when the offense
isnt even on the field.
Brandon Banks a rook-
ie return specialist and current
titleholder of NFLs smallest play-
er has become Washingtons
most significant offensive weap-
on even though hes done all his
damage to this point on spe-
cial teams.
Banks was near-
ly the difference in last
weekends clash against
the Vikings, but his 77-yard
punt return for a touchdown was
called back because of teammate
Perry Rileys block in the back. It
was a block that Riley didnt even
need to make, as replays showed
Banks would have beaten the
Vikings players who were chasing
him to the crease in the coverage
whether or not Riley committed
the infraction. It was the second
return touchdown that Banks has
had called back this year and dem-
onstrated again that he possesses
a rare and valuable commodity:
Hes so fast, his teammates dont
have to make all their blocks for
him to score.
Banks emergence is a wel-
come change from a year ago,
when Washingtons special teams
were struggling to flip the field on
returns. Veteran receiver Antwaan
Randle El averaged just 6 yards
per punt return last season (an
inflated average when you consid-
Extra Special Effort
Return man Banks
is a rare explosive
threat for Redskins
er he had one 43-yarder). Receiver
Devin Thomas fared better, aver-
aging 22 yards per kick return,
but fell out of favor with the new
coaching staff and was cut earli-
er this season.
But Banks has made fans for-
get about Thomas special teams
contributions, averaging 27 yards
per kick return this season and 11.3
yards per punt return. Banks has
four kick returns of 40 yards or
more including a 96-yard touch-
down against Detroit and four
punt returns of at least 20 yards.
He set a franchise record with 271
return yards in the Week 8 loss to
the Lions.
A lot of people were laughing
[at the beginning of the season],
coach Mike Shanahan said. We
brought him in and they saw a guy
thats 5-foot-6 and 150 pounds. Can
he actually help in the National
Football League? Now every time
he touches the ball, you feel like hes
got a chance to go the distance
Will Banks develop into a via-
ble weapon on offense? The Red-
skins are certainly looking for ways
to get him more touches. Banks
took a snap out of the wildcat for-
mation in last weekends loss and
seems likely to get more chances
at receiver as his knee gets back to
full strength.
Hopefully as the season goes
on and hes feeling better, we can
give him some more reps, Shana-
han said. ERI C BRANDNER
"I feel I
can go the
dstance
every tme
I touch the
ball."

Fans Left to Ask,
Why Not U.S.?
Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe
taught us that some like it hot. FIFA
confirmed that Thursday by choosing
Qatar as host of the 2022 World Cup.
Thats right: The desert nation
roughly the size of Connecticut with
temperatures reaching 130 F and
dreams of building nine
air-conditioned arenas
sounded like a better
host for the worlds
biggest sporting event
than the United States.
Corruption will be al-
leged, especially when
a country as rich as Qatar pulls off an
upset of this size on the same day Rus-
sia, another fuel-rich nation, got the
2018 Cup. But, in the end, FIFA opted
for the first World Cup in the Middle
East which oh, by the way cares
more about soccer than this country.
Speculation has begun about how
much the loss will hurt U.S. soccer. Note
thats different than whether the sports
popularity will be damaged here.
Soccer will still grow in the U.S. An
increasing number of people are see-
ing what the fuss is about, even if most
would rather watch a Champions
League match than an MLS contest.
Would there have been a popular-
ity spike if the United States had won
the day? Sure. The sad part is that a
generation of future stars cant look
forward to representing their country
on home soil. It also slows the timeta-
ble for capturing the Cup on the field
though thats still a far-fetched notion.
A U.S. Cup would have been a cash
cow for FIFA, but the sands of time will
have to wait for the American dream.
By Matt
Swenson
Would there have
been a popularty
spke f the Unted
States had won the
day7 Sure.
The tiny desert nation of Qatar
beat out the United States as the
2022 World Cup host, with FIFA
brushing aside doubts about blis-
tering heat to bring soccers show-
case event for the first time to the
Middle East.
The 22 voters on FIFAs exec-
utive committee, some accused of
corruption in the weeks leading up
to their meeting, picked Russia to
stage the 2018 tournament, anoth-
er first-time host. Both votes were
taken Thursday, and the results
announced minutes apart.
Qatar, an oil-rich nation that has
U.S. World Cup Bid Falls to Qatar
with air-conditioned outdoor stadi-
ums, led on every round of ballot-
ing that initially included Australia,
Japan and South Korea. Qatar won
the final vote 14-8 over the U.S.
Basically, oil and natural gas
won today. This was not about
merit; this was about money, for-
mer U.S. national team star Eric
Wynalda said.
American sports executives
are now left to wonder what they
have to do to host another major
international event. Last year, the
International Olympic Committee
chose Rio de Janeiro over Chicago
and others for the 2016 Olympics
despite a personal lobbying effort
by President Obama. At the White
House on Thursday, Obama said, I
think it was the wrong decision,
when asked about FIFAs choice.
RAF CASERT (AP)
necticut. We go to new lands, FIFA
president Sepp Blatter said.
Qatar, which has promised to
overcome heat of up to 130 degrees
been independent since 1971, has a
population of about 1.7 million
500,000 less than Houston. At 4,416
square miles, it is smaller than Con-
QatariscelebrateonThursdayafterthenationwonitsbidtohostthe2022WorldCup.

Dunn Departs
Nats for $56M
Deal in Chicago
The Natonals
First baseman Adam Dunn has
signed a four-year, $56 million
contract with the Chicago White
Sox, pending a physical, a baseball
source confirmed. The deal clos-
es the door for the Nationals to re-
sign their best slugger over the past
two seasons and one of their most
popular players, both among fans
and teammates.
The sides agreed to the rough
outline of the deal late Wednesday
night, the source said, and final-
ized the deal Thursday afternoon.
Dunn, 31, will move on to Chicago
after drilling 76 home runs in his
two seasons in Washington.
Id be disappointed for me,
Nationals third baseman Ryan
Zimmerman said. Im very happy
for him. Obviously, if hes going
to go there, hes going to get a
four-year deal, and thats what he
deserves. ( THE WASHINGTON POST)

In her memoir, Cooking for Mr.
Latte, Amanda Hesser chronicled
both her courtship with her now-
husband and her favorite recipes.
The former New York Times Maga-
zine staffer and co-founder of food-
ie blog Food52.com spent five years
testing thousands of recipes from
the past 150 years of the Times,
zeroing in on 1,400 that she pub-
lished in the resulting tome, The
Essential New York Times Cook-
book: Classic Recipes for a New
Century ($40, Norton).
People have a lot of emotional
attachment to some of these rec-
ipes, dont they?
It stems from the way people feel
about cooking and food. When you
cook something that you serve to
your family, on a holiday you cher-
ish, it sticks with you. One woman
wrote to me that one veal chop rec-
ipe held her marriage together!
How did you decide which recipes
made the cut?
Id ask myself, Would I make
this again? When you look at
an archives thats 150 years old
and holds thousands of recipes,
its tough. I wanted them all to be
great recipes and say things about
our food culture.
Are there great dishes of the
past that we forgot about?
Theres one in here, Heavenly Hots,
thats something between a pan-
cake and a blini. Its terrific.
Were there any real stinkers?

COOKBOOK AUTHOR, BRUSSELS SPROUTS FAN
a mousse from the 19th century
that was too bouncy and had way
too much orange f lower water.
But there wasnt as much aspic as
youd think!
What propels a reader to stop
poring over a cookbook and actu-
ally make a recipe?
Its the voice of the person who has
written the recipe. That was the
magic of Craig Claiborne!
Besides refrigeration, whats the
biggest culinary innovation of the
past 150 years?
The blender changed soups forev-
er. Before that, you could never get
them smooth.
What cant you live without in
your own kitchen?
A stand mixer. I think there was
a lot of hanging around whisking
and beating in old recipes.
Any favorite holiday recipes in
here?
I love Craig Claibornes eggnog.
Its so thick you could eat it with a
spoon. And Im a big fan of the rec-
ipes for shredded Brussels sprouts.
Shredding them totally changes
their flavor.
You have young children. Howd
you get them to eat this stuff?
They ate practically everything in
the book because I had them when I
was working on it. Once they start-
ed eating solid food, Id basically
just cut everything into little bits.

I love print shoes, particular-
ly Bettye Mullers. But they
cost a lot! Can you suggest
a cheaper option to wear for
the holidays? I dont want any
hoochie mama stuff. ZELDA
Manolo says, it is always this way,
when Non-Specific Winter Holiday
Period of Festivities Formerly Known
as Christmas rolls around, one wishes
to find the clothing that properly ex-
presses the joy inherent in the season.
For most Americans, this means
getting the Rudolph the Red-Nosed
Reindeer sweater and red velour
sweatpants out of the storage closets
and onto the carcass without leaving
the comfort of the mobility scooters.
The Manolos true friends follow
the older tradition, which for the men
requires brocaded waistcoats, colorful
mufflers and top hats festooned with
holly. For the ladies, the Manolo loves
opulent patterns and the rich embroi-
dery. The Mothers of Hoochie strutting
by in their pleather mini-dresses will
stop when they see you and go home
and put on something decent.
Look! Here is the Bettye Muel-
ler tartan pump on sale at Neiman
Marcus for only $214 (Bit.ly/i2foOK)!
Ayyy! It is the Holiday Miracle!

The Reelst
Auteur Aronofsky
When I saw Pi, Darren Aronofskys
(above) feature debut, I walked out of
the theater feeling like I had fallen out
of the weird tree and hit every branch
on the way down. But I climbed back
up for Requiem for a Dream and for
every movie since. Because getting
mentally battered is best when its
done by a master.
Aronofskys filmic
S&M continues with
Black Swan. The
story of an obsessive
ballet dancer, played
by Natalie Portman
in what isnt so much
Oscar bait as a giant
neon arrow-shaped sign flashing IN-
SERT AWARD HERE, Black Swan,
while imperfect, is as intense a movie
experience as I can remember.
After the somewhat-respite of
The Wrestler, Aronofsky has re-
turned to his signature style. Its visu-
ally loud every frame is packed, and
the camera is rarely still. Add in that
he likes to crank the volume to 11, and
you leave the theater feeling like every
sense has ridden a roller coaster that
was built in hell, driven by The Stig,
and with the Mad Hatter checking the
seat belts. There were stretches in
Black Swan when I forgot to breathe
because I was too busy paying at-
tention. For a movie that is nominally
about, hello, ballet (and Pi was about
MATH), that takes some skill.
Its getting harder to find directors
with a signature style; its a pleasure
to find that Aronofsky not only still
has his but uses it to inflict just the
right kind of pain on his audience.

Two years after The Wrestler,
Darren Aronofsky presents a book-
end of sorts with Black Swan, his
inspired, unsettling drama about
a ballerina teetering on the brink
of greatness and madness. Just as
Aronofsky discovered unexpected
tenderness and vulnerability in the
locker rooms of professional wres-
tling, he brings out the toughness
and, in this case, outright terror
of a world that, while presenting
a gentler face, is powered just as
compulsively by painful physical
and psychological extremes.
As Nina Sayers, Natalie Port-
man delivers a bravura perfor-
mance as a child-woman whose
with a New York dance company
when the troupes demanding artis-
tic director, Thomas Leroy (Vin-
cent Cassel), taps her to star in an
upcoming production of Swan
Lake. Her technical brilliance and
tentative innocence make her per-
fect for the White Swan, but hes
less sure that she can pull off the
ruthlessness and sensuality of her
evil twin, the Black Swan. Perhaps
Lily (Mila Kunis), a wild-eyed new-
comer, would be better suited?
Although Portman is receiving
deserved recognition for a brave
lead performance, the real breakout
in Black Swan is Kunis, who pro-
vides incandescent ballast to Port-
mans tortured waif. In Aronofskys
febrile world of doppelgangers and
taboo desires, these two actresses
make persuasive sisters under the
skin in a movie that takes the con-
cept to its most hallucinatory and
(literally) goose-bump-raising lim-
its. ANN HORNADAY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

fragility gradually gives way to
grave, even grotesque self-destruc-
tion. Ballet fans be forewarned:
Black Swan isnt a classic dance
film as much as a horror movie in
which horror engages in a taut pas
de deux with lyricism.

this alternately seductive and
sadistic road, Aronofsky proves an
assured, if occasionally perverse,

The Ballerina Lifestyle
To get herself into prima ballerina form at age 28, Portman (now 29) commit-
ted herself to a regimen that included dancing, swimming, weight training
and cross training. She practiced five hours a day, every day, for 10 months
prior to production. She worked with some of the best ballet trainers in the
business, including the legendary Georgina Parkinson (who died just two
weeks before the film went into production). Rigorous training took its toll
on both Portman and Mila Kunis. Portman injured a rib. Kunis tore two liga-
ments and dislocated her shoulder. (ENTERTAINMENT NEWS WIRE)

Hollywood musicals represent-
ed a utopian ideal for Americans
who were crushed by the Great
Depression and by the realities of
wartime life. They were sumptu-
ous and silly, full of old songs and
fantasy dance numbers and dress-
es covered in feathers. Fred Astaire
(shown right) dressed better than
anyone in the real world.
But the thing about Utopia is
that its not just paradise; it can
offer valuable lessons on how to
live. Musicals give us a picture of
happiness, and with that they give
us a blueprint for living.

We asked Robert Wyatt, who

Saturday called Celebrating

Smithsonians Ripley Center, to
relay some life lessons hes learned
from Hollywood musicals.
Don't be seduced by a
guy smply because
he sngs and dances.
In every Ginger Rogers and Fred
Astaire movie, Wyatt says, it
starts off with her despising him,
and as soon as she dances with
him the first time, or hears him
sing ultimately, he always wins
her because he dances so well.
To that, wed add the corollary:
If youre choosing between two
men, pick the one who can dance.
Or better yet, make them have a
dance battle.

universal personal drama. For the most
part, director Doug Liman steers clear of
re-litigating the leak of Plames name to
themediaduringtheBushadministration,
instead focusing on how her being a spy,
and then being outed, affected Plames
marriage to Joe Wilson (Sean Penn).
After a dicey situation in Kuala Lumpur
in which Plame 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 in Iraq. M.O.

FASTER (R, 98 minutes) To appreciate
this sun-baked revenge flick directed
by George Tillman Jr., it helps to have
a healthy respect for the movies char-
ismatic star. Faster works best as an
ode to its main character, the Chevrolet
Chevelle SS. Dwayne Johnson plays a
not-unimpressive side of beef who, in
his first days out of prison, is gunning
for the backstabbing crooks who killed
his brother. Hes identified, fittingly, only
as Driver. As an actor playing a surgeon
might spend time observing a hospital,
so Johnson appears to have modeled
his performance on the bulls of Pam-
plona. We first see him pacing his cell,
gleaming with sweat and snorting with
rage as guards approach to lead him to
freedom. DAN KOIS
THE GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNETS
NEST (R, 148 minutes) The final, deeply
satisfying conclusion to the trilogy of
Swedish thrillers based on Stieg Lars-
sons best-selling novels follows Lisbeth
Salander (Noomi Rapace), the series
computer-hacker heroine and titular
hornets nest kicker, after movie No. 2 left
her shot in three places and barely breath-
ing. Lisbeth spends the entire first half
of Hornets Nest merely recuperating
from her injuries and preparing to face a
charge of attempted murder in the axing
of her father (Georgi Staykov). Yes, hes a
bad man. He has also been protected by
a secret government cabal that resorts

to threats and murder. M.O.
HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY
HALLOWS-PART 1 (PG-13, 145 minutes)
The latest installment of the Harry Potter
series cant be anything but unsatisfying
its meant to leave filmgoers wanting
more. Its half of a really good movie, full
of the enchantment for which the Pot-
ter series has become so cherished. The
evil Lord Voldemort (a noseless Ralph
Fiennes), having taken over the Ministry
of Magic, is bent on the destruction of
Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) and all
the magical-Muggle miscegenation he
represents. Meanwhile, Harry, along with
hisbestfriends, Hermione(EmmaWatson)
and Ron (Rupert Grint), has dropped out of
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wiz-
ardry in order to find the Horcruxes that
giveVoldemorthispowerandimmortality,
and vanquish him forever. A.H.
HEREAFTER ( 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
thehumansoul. Stylishbecauseofitscool
and bloodless demeanor. At the center of
themostlymesmerizingbutfinallyflawed
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.
LOVE & OTHER DRUGS (R, 113 minutes)
Give Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway
this much: They have the best eyes in
the business. Thats the most cheering
takeaway from Love & Other Drugs, a
jagged little pill of a movie from Edward
Zwick. Here, Zwick turns his attention to
millennials riding the financial bubble
at the turn of the 21st century. The film
plays like a grotesque group portrait of
pigs at the trough. And none of those
pigs is feeding more blithely than Jamie
Randall (Gyllenhaal), a charming rake
who becomes a pharmaceutical sales-
man; during his rounds he meets Maggie
(Hathaway), a bohemian whose elbows-
out demeanor belies a meltingly soft
center inside. A.H.
THE NEXT THREE DAYS (PG-13, 122
minutes) Russell Crowe delivers a glum,
recessive performance as a community
college professor lured into a life on the
lam. When the film opens, Pittsburgh lit-
erature teacher John Brennan (Crowe) is
meeting his wife, Lara (Elizabeth Banks),
for dinner with Johns brother and his
bombshell wife. Almost immediately,
Lara and her sister-in-law begin arguing;
later, in the car, John and Lara enjoy an
illicit moment of post-catfight sex. The
scenes are clearly meant to bring Laras
impulses and passions to the forefront
of filmgoers minds when, the next day,
shes charged with having murdered a
co-worker just moments before arriving
at the restaurant. A.H.
TANGLED (PG, 100 minutes) Tangled
is a princess story, in this case that of
Rapunzel (voiced by Mandy Moore), who
as an infant is abducted from her parents
castle by the vindictive Mother Gothel
(Donna Murphy) and raised in a tower,
her hair all the time growing, growing,
growing. Her super-long (and amazingly
well-conditioned) tresses have magical
powers that make them light up and turn
back the clock for whoever they touch
namely, the youth-obsessed Gothel.
Rapunzels home life may be a study in
passive-aggressive dysfunction, but
for the most part Tangled is zippy and
engaging. A.H.
TODAYS SPECIAL (NR, 99 minutes)
Theres nothing terribly special about this
heartwarming if slight foodie comedy set
mainly in the kitchen of a struggling Indian
restaurant in Queens. Starring Daily
Show correspondent Aasif Mandvi, the
film tells the story of a young, thoroughly
assimilated Indian American named
Samir, who quits his job as a sous chef in
a fancy French Manhattan restaurant,
takes over the familys dumpy Tandoori
Palace on behalf of his old-fashioned,
ailing father (Harish Patel), and in short
order has whipped the place into such
great culinary shape that the New York
Times picks it as the citys best Indian
restaurant. M.O.
UNSTOPPABLE (PG-13, 98 minutes)
Director Tony Scott achieves something
close to the action movie in its ideal
form with Unstoppable, which can be
summed up thusly: Train out of control!
Must stop train! A young, inexperienced
railroad conductor named Will (Chris
Pine) is on his first shift with veteran
train operator Frank (Denzel Washing-
ton) 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. A
coolheaded train executive named
Connie (Rosario Dawson), helps Will and
Frank face the impending crises. A. H.
Chris Pine endures a wild ride on the rails in the crisis-filled thriller Unstoppable.

Gold Rush: Alaska combines
all the right ingredients for a
successful manly-man cable
series. It has tough guys, big trucks, even
bigger rigs, earth-moving equipment,
guns, danger, male bonding, temper tan-

whiff of desperation. Put a bunch of antsy,
down-on-their-luck guys with little min-
ing experience in subarctic conditions,
and add heavy machinery and plenty of
guns. What could go wrong?

PUZZLES BY PAPPOCOM
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Perspective is the key; open your eyes
to opportunities and you should be able
see things that have more long-term
significance.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
The schedule youve worked hard to
build may be thrown out of whack by
someone who plays in important role in
your affairs.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Its time
to get in gear. Others are waiting for you
to address the issues that really matter;
a great deal is at stake.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Now is no
time for you to sit back and let others call
the shots; you can play a pivotal role and
help determine where things are going.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Intensity
is on the rise at this time, and with the
stakes as high as they are, many are
willing to go to the mat. Are you?
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Questions
of policy and pragmatism are likely to
clash until you come up with a way to
combine the two effectively.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Certain
aspects of your current strategy are
right on the money, but others may
require some quick and effective
adjustment.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You are
facing a tough personal decision. Dont
let anothers agenda distract you from
what lies ahead for you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You may not be
willing to turn the other cheek, but you
can certainly react in a manner that
douses rather than fans the flames.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You may be
able to demonstrate your commitment
to certain key issues. One or two friends
can help you in a few important ways.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) The news
you receive from the home front is like-
ly to motivate you in ways that surprise
the competition and give you an impor-
tant edge.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Youre will-
ing to face a challenge that looms,
but not before preparing yourself for
a fight and arming yourself with key
information.

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: Dont 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.
