In 1992, Judge Sotomayor was confirmed by the Senate without opposition after being appointed to the bench by George H.W. Bush.

Wow! That kid can dance! I really enjoyed this show. However, I think I would have been totally lost if I hadn't read the wikipedia article first, which explained the politics of England at the time. The background story of the show involves the U.K. coal strike in the 80s, FYI.

I saw it with my mom and sister Rose last Wednesday matinee. Afterwords we met up with [livejournal.com profile] quietchris, my brother and his partner for diner at Ollie's.

Last night [livejournal.com profile] quietchris and I went to the (being restored) historic landmark Loews Theater in Jersey City, NJ to see 2 films.

The Uninvited (1944): All prints of this file had been lost but someone at Universal was convinced to have a new print made. This was the first showing of this print. It will now tour art houses around the country. The film is a horror/mystery. Very enjoyable.

Rebecca (1940): Hitchcock's first film made in America. His third film shows a lot of the themes we'll see him perfect in later pictures. Enjoyable with an ending that I never would have predicted.

My car was broken into last night while parked in Jersey City. The small (non-rolling, triangle) window was busted and everything in the car was ransacked. My GPS was stolen, luckily nothing else of value was there (thank God my laptop was safely at work). Though, there were tons of power adaptors and other iPod/cell phone related cables and things he could have taken... but I guess they're only worth $ to someone with the exact model.

Yes, I had hidden everything in the glove box or middle box. Sadly, he saw the mounting stuff for my GPS and assumed he could find the GPS itself in the car.

Looks like Monday I'll be working from home while I coordinate getting a replacement window.

Ugh.

In perl you can use <> to mean "read one line at a time from each file in ARGV or just stdin if no files are listed". It is wonderful because in 2 keystrokes you get functionality that is similar to how Unix tools like cat, grep, and many others work.

Is there a similar thing in Python? I can't find it.
