| 'High School Musical 2' Delivers Fresh Fun
The makers of High School Musical 2 wanted to avoid repeating themselves. They have succeeded. They have delivered a sequel that is both zanier and more dramatic than the original.
The DVD will be one of the most popular gifts this Christmas, although the movie celebrates summer. Sharpay Evans (Ashley Tisdale) lures Troy Bolton (Zac Efron) to work at her parents' country club. He inadvertently angers her by bringing along girlfriend Gabriella Montez (Vanessa Hudgens) and their East High friends.
The wackiness comes mainly from Tisdale, whose broad performance would fit on The Carol Burnett Show.

Britney Spears Suffers Cliff-Edge Meltdown
The troubled singer took her brand new Mercedes for a spin and ended up getting lost after a snapper told her of a "short cut" home through the Hollywood Hills. Luckily the hoard of paparazzi trailing Brit were on hand to offer directions away from the cliff-edge. Speaking in her bizarre English accent, a "dizzy" and "scared" mumbled over and over again, "I don’t like it," before telling the surrounding paps to "Get the fuck away from me." And it wasn’t just her way that Brit appeared to have lost last night – as our pictures show, the pop mess seems to have had one ratty hair extension to many and was sporting several bald patches in her weave. Watch last night's craziness below or check out the pictures here! .

COLUMN: Digesting the economic incentives plan
For the guy on the street with little more economic savvy than balancing a checkbook, this whole business of a possible economic recession and the proposed presidential — now bipartisan — lifeline would be irrelevant if some of us weren't already losing our jobs, having trouble finding one or just struggling to fill the tank. The problem is that feeling the pain and knowing the cause don't always go together. In one way or another, we all feel the symptoms of the downgrading economy. A number are pretty obvious and affect us directly: tuition has increased, food is more costly, our bills pile up and we see more small cars during our less-frequent joy rides. However (and perhaps more importantly), there are definitely some subtle indicators of recession that the common folk fail to see much of a direct connection to: red tags at the local supermarket, foreclosure signs in the neighborhood and heavy discounts and empty shelves at usually busy retail stores.
Schiano turns down Michigan
ROn English is not our guy and whoever is our guy, we need to get rid of Mike Debord. What a predictable, boring offense. We need a fresh innovated mind to put the fear not only in the big ten but into the NCAA as a whole. My pick would be 1st, Urban Meyers (yeah, I know Fat chance but we can dream can't we?) 2nd Jim Tedford, 3rd, Chris Peterson, 4th, Brian Kelly, and why not look at Sean Payton. Whatever they do, they need to do it now. Michigan looks like an imcometent organization that is using it's past roots to try to persuade someone to come in. .
