It made for a real dud

The game began like many others. BC forward Jared Dudley drew a crowd the first time he caught the ball, so he passed it along. The second time he touched it, just two minutes into the game, he took a good, open shot that rolled off the rim.

The test-prep service turns in a disappointing quarter.

My black MacBook, purchased in May of last year, a day after the product was announced and a day after the computer it replaced, a white G4 iBook, died -- died itself earlier today. There was an evil clicking sound coming from the back. The spinning rainbow cursor. Reboot it to see a disk with a flashing question mark.  The death of the black MacBook can only mean that there's a new sexy Apple laptop coming soon. Somewhere between a fat version of the iPhone and a Sony Vaio. Hope it has a real keyboard, not a virtual one.

I guess I'm the bad boy of heart attack survivors. Mine played like low comedy from the start. It felt not like shearing pain; I had no revelations of mortality and sense of endtimes and lost opportunities. Actually, it seemed Bill Clinton was sitting on my chest playing the saxophone.

So is that it then? The stock market was understandably underwhelmed by yesterday&#39;s keenly awaited strategy statement from Rentokil Initial.

ÂThe Wicker ManÂ is a comically inept as a horror movie, unable to even manage an effective false scare, or sustain suspense for more than a beat or two.

The music for Rohit Shetty's new film is insipid.

Costarring Dimple, the film is a loser from Day 1.

This horror film, spun off from an old Atari video game, is so inept on every level you wonder why the distributor didn't toss it directly into the trash.

The music of Himesh Reshammiya's latest film, Vaada, is dull.

It could be a single malfunctioning power supply. Or, from the other side of the glass, it could be a portent of doom for a technology that would make good use of all those TV channels that no one's broadcasting on, for wireless networking.

Robert Zemeckis' new film has technical wizardry but lacks heart.

Yes, the product is overpriced and the constant barrage of piped in sound effects is enough to drive Seinfeld&#39;s Lloyd Braun into another nervous breakdown (hearing Ric Flair&#39;s patented &quot;Wooo!

Thirty minutes until the start of the Vermont City Marathon, and I still couldn't activate one of my gadgets for tracking speed and distance. Fifteen minutes. Five. And the starting horn went off. I gave up fiddling to focus on my race.

Another nugget I thought would be good to share. I came home from my trip to NY and there was a pretty bad stink in the kitchen.  Smelled like garbage. It didn't take long to zero in on the source -- the garbage disposal. I tried pouring all kinds of cleaning stuff down the drain, to no avail, the smell didn't go away. Then I did a search on the Internet, found a variety of suggestions, and felt pretty sure that I'd have to call a plumber because they all seemed to assume skills and/or tools I didn't have. Instead I tried a very simple idea and amazingly it worked. 1. Put a drain stopper in the disposal so no water can flow out through the bottom 2. Fill the sink with hot water mixed with soap and chlorine bleach. The hotter the water the better. 3. With the water running put one hand on the stopper and the other on the switch, as you pull out the stopper, turn on the switch. (Be sure to do it in that order, to keep your hand from getting chopped up!) 4. Let all the water run out of the sink and leave the water running as long as there's suds. 5. Repeat two or three times. Wait a day or two. With any luck the smell will be gone. The reason this works is that junk gets stuck on the walls of the drain, and since it's garbage, it rots and stinks. By immersing it in soapy water, the junk gets dislodged and goes down the drain and out of your life.

After all the buildup surrounding the protests by the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, Saturdayâs concert was pretty much a bust.
