Plot: An everyday guy decides to take justice into his own hands after a plea bargain sets his family’s killers free. His target: The district attorney (Jamie Foxx) who orchestrated the deal
This movie was actually pretty good. The ending annoyed me. It was really good up until then. Gerard Butler did a great job playing the law abiding citizen who took the law into his own hands. Viola Davis was also very good.
Going Rogue has already shattered records in pre orders and has been in the top ten best selling Amazon list since the book was announced. An appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show is a guarantee to boost book sales for any author. As Allahpundit suggested, “If sales of her book were already stratospheric, this ought to put them in lunar orbit.”
She will appear on the Oprah Winfrey Show on November 16th to promote her book “Going Rogue: An American Life,” which is due to hit stores Nov 17th. Ummmm ok!
No dress-wearing is part of a larger dress code launched this week that Morehouse College is calling its “Appropriate Attire Policy.”
The policy also bans wearing hats in buildings, pajamas in public, do-rags, sagging pants, sunglasses in class and walking barefoot on campus.
However, it is the ban on cross-dressing that has brought national attention to the small historically African-American college. 
Watch students react to the new dress code »
The dress-wearing ban is aimed at a small part of the private college’s 2,700-member student body, said Dr. William Bynum, vice president for Student Services.
“We are talking about five students who are living a gay lifestyle that is leading them to dress a way we do not expect in Morehouse men,” he said.
Before the school released the policy, Bynum said, he met with Morehouse Safe Space, the campus’ gay organization.
“We talked about it and then they took a vote,” he said. “Of the 27 people in the room, only three were against it.”
There has been a positive response along with some criticism throughout the campus, he said.
Senior Devon Watson said he disagrees with parts of the new policy, especially those that tell students what they should wear in free time outside of the classroom.
“I feel that there will be a lot of resentment and backlash,” Watson said. “It infringes on the student’s freedom of expression. I matriculated successfully for three-and-half years dressing so how is this a problem?”
Senior Tyrone McGowan said he has mixed feelings about parts of the policy.
“But I have been inspired by the conversation it has created,” he said. “We have to find a way to create diverse leaders from this college. I don’t want this to place all of us in one box.”
Those breaking the policy will not be allowed to go to class unless they change. Chronic dress-code offenders could be suspended from the college.

Not that I have any interest in seeing this movie…. but I knew stylists and random others would pop up saying he stole their ideas. By the way… YES I am back! Working on a thesis and other random life situations is no joke! Ahhhh 
LOS ANGELES — A federal judge has refused to halt the release of the Chris Rock film “Good Hair.”
Rock and the film’s producers were sued in Los Angeles by documentary filmmaker Regina Kimbell, who claimed the comedian stole several ideas for his film from her work.
Kimbell produced the documentary “My Nappy Roots” earlier this decade and says she screened her film for Rock in 2007. U.S. District Judge Dale S. Fischer watched both films and says she didn’t see substantial similarities.
Kimbell had been seeking an order blocking the film’s release.
“Good Hair” has been in limited release and will open nationwide Oct. 23.
Kimbell and her attorney say they will continue to pursue the case to a trial.
