"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Here are the recommendations
Academic programs recommended for closure include the Master of Library and Information Sciences, the Bachelor of Arts in German and Latin and the reduction of language options for a savings of approximately $1.5 million at full implementation. Additional savings of $500,000 would be achieved through administrative adjustments in Continuing Education.
Centers, institutes and facilities recommended for closure include the Office of Community Preservation in the College of Art & Design; the Louisiana Population Data Center and the Writing Center in the College of Arts & Sciences; the Design & Drafting Center, Scientific Glassblowing Facility, Geochemistry Facility, Oxy-Anion Stable Isotope Center and Bird Resource Center in the College of Basic Sciences; the Education Policy Research Center in the College of Education; and the Center for Advanced Materials in the Office of Research and Economic Development.
Also recommended was the elimination of state funding to the Eric Voegelin Institute and Cartographic Section in the College of Arts & Sciences; the United States Civil War Center and the T. Harry Williams Center for Oral History in the LSU Libraries; and the Center for French and Francophone Studies in the Office of Research and Economic Development.
Total savings achieved through eliminations and changes to centers, institutes and facilities would be approximately $1 million.

Whoa, I Tivoed Synecdoche, New York and Emily Watson's got an unexpected nude scene in it. And she's got an amazing body. Very full and lush and womanly. Not a boob-job/Maxim body but sexy and human.

Sure, eliminate scientific glassblowing--it's probably one old guy doin weird shit, and you won't save much cause your chemists will just have to order their weird glass from catalogues and special order now, and it'll be more expensive. I'm just sayin.

Well, the Center for French Studies, which is very different from the Department of French Studies.
Don't scare me like that.

Coding and Sleeping
From the files of Great in Theory/Horrific in Practice the House GOP has set up a website for regular Americans to suggest and discuss ideas for congress to take on.
Because random people on the Internet are known for their forward-thinking ideas and intellectual debating. Not that there won't be some good ideas and sincere, intelligent people; they'll just be snowed under by the cranks and crackpots like with every single comment thread everywhere.
It took about three clicks to reach a suggestion to repeal the 19th Amendment with support running at 50% (from a statistically insignificant number of people).

Among other things wrong with this is it means the House GOP would be deciding who counts as a "regular American".

Oh man, that was a brilliant movie. I'd be curious to hear your take on it, given how polarizing it tends to be. (My BAFTA friends barely made it through the whole screening and declared it to be the worst movie they'd ever seen. I *loved* it.)
Also, one of my neighbors did sound for it. Anytime you can hear the actors talking and don't see a boom in the shot, thank Jeanne!
