Passion at the Cineplex

Moviegoers showed their passion for a zombie remake over the weekend - "Dawn of the Dead" earned $26.7 million at the box office and dethroned Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ" for the number one spot.

Interestingly, the two movies have many similarities. First of all, "The Passion" ends with a person rising from the dead and "Dawn of the Dead" starts with several characters rising from the dead. Email us with any other similarities you've noticed.

The Boondocks:

Same Old Song

Not waiting for reports at the past weekend's General Board meetings, Board members and staff had already begun on measures to counteract possible budget deficits. Responding to "voices from the pews," an ad hoc group with a nebulous scope and deadline has already leaped to action. Their first accomplishment was a fact finding junket to India to investigate outsourcing of congregational support and resourcing. The savings in staff salaries and benefits could save $220,000 annually which could then be used to subsidize non-General Board programming.
