| Kutztown U. faculty postpones no-confidence vote on president
KUTZTOWN, Pa. (AP) - The Kutztown University faculty says it is delaying a planned no-confidence vote on university President Javier Cevallos. Faculty union President Michael Gambone says in a campus blog the delay will either give Cevallos time to deal with faculty concerns, or expose problems with his leadership. The vote was planned for Monday through Wednesday of this week. Faculty members cite quality of education problems from crowded classrooms to cramped faculty office space. Cevellos says many of the problems ironically are a result of success. The university is dealing with an enrollment growth of 2,000 students in four years - reaching 10,500 this year. The KU trustees and the State System of Higher Education's board have voted in support of Cevallos.
Movie Talk
It is a fact that Tyler has the capacity to direct, and make all kinds of films, that he can make a BIG difference, and to show he has the ability to NOT be a steriotype only comedy making filmmaker. To show that he can be diverse. To mix it up sometimes, some comedies, some dramas, some thrillers, some science fiction. It is that his films are ALWAYS THE SAME STYLE. What is wrong with diversity even in black movies? Too many of our movies are ALWAYS comedies and many of our great actors in them are typed cast, to never escape this, or to be some kind of side kick in predominately white cast films. It is just irrating to see most of the OUR films on the big screen, as a bunch of knee slapping, heckling and jeckling, grinning and jinning blacks ALL THE TIME. It is Hollywood that looks at at us as mostly coons and bafoonery, and Hollywood that gives out the checks to only fund these comedy films for us, only looking for a quick way to make a fast buck.

Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama keeping up their "war on words." The fight has someone here predicting the Republicans will keep the White House and the bulls will come back to Wall Street. Charles, you say the Clinton/Obama bickering over everything from plagiarism to economic policies helps the GOP and Wall Street? Charles Payne: Obviously the down and dirty fighting going on between Obama and Clinton makes McCain look more presidential. Neil Cavuto: And by the end of the week, McCain was dealing with his own set of accusations… Charles Payne: Yeah, but at least he wasn't fighting another candidate. He was fighting a liberal, left-wing newspaper that came out with a story outta left field. Ben Stein: Wait a minute! You're calling the "New York Times" a liberal newspaper?! (laughter) Adam Lashinsky: That is what he said… Charles Payne: I know it's a news flash.
