Get Your Hebrew On

Happy Rosh Hashanah all my Jewish friends! As you may or may not know, Rosh Hashanah is Hebrew for “beginning of the year.” It's the Jewish New Year, celebrated on the first and second days of the Jewish month of Tishri (falling in September or October). It begins the observance of the Ten Penitential Days, a period ending with Yom Kippur that is the most solemn of the Jewish calendar. In the Bible, Rosh Hashanah is mentioned as a day of remembrance and of the sounding of the ram's horn. I wonder if there is a correlation with the stock market dropping, and the $700 million bill not passing...

Shaun White For Target

If you've been to Target lately, you may have been been pleasantly surprised in the men's department. You may have seen Shaun's hilarious commercials but you, like me, may have just dismissed him as a designer. But when I was at Target I was delighted with Shaun White Apparel. If you really think about what a real, down to earth guy wants to wear, Shawn's really nailed it. Funny graphics, hoddies, cool western shirts, and straight leg pants. All at reasonable prices (under $30ish) and a boys line too!

Howard Runway Update #3

On Friday all of us girls in the first pass met up at Betsey Johnson for our fitting. It was sooo much fun! Trying on all the mini party dresses, it was every little girls dream. This is a really exciting event, because Ms. Betsey Johnson has never lent her clothes out for a school runway show, so it is a true honor! The above is not the dress I will be wearing, but it is close ;) It's going to be a really fun pass with fluffy strapless minis, and stripper heels. The contradiction is cute and sexy hopefully true to fashion icon herself.

Hot New Movies

Tons of really good movies came out over the weekend, and more to come!

(note: Obviously I'm only talking about the ones I think will be good :) Out over the weekend, the western, Appaloosa which was directed by, and co-stars Ed Harris. Also starring my favorite, the diverse and wildly talented, Viggo Mortensen. Also out over the weekend was the much anticipated action thriller Eagle Eye starring every one's favorite Shia LeBeouf. And of course, in my favorite movie genre, The Dutchess starring the amazing, Kiera Knightly. The suspense drama, Miracle at St Anna directed by the amazing Spike Lee is going to be a must see. And the movie I most want to see, Choke, from the creators of Fight Club.

Coming out this week, Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist about young love starring the hilarious Michael Cera (Juno, and Superbad). Blindness starring Julianne Moore, the only person left with sight after a town goes blind. Religulous starring Blill Maher a comedy/documentary/religious/ political film should be really funny and insightful. So grab some popcorn and saddle up for all these great new movies!

The damages plus CERN's yearly winter break will push back the collision of atoms until March or April.... Well, looks like we won't be dying from antimatter until next spring. That's nice.
