Check out five modern Christmas favorites
This so-wrong-its-funny comedy, about a jaded, down-on-his-luck thief posing as Santa to rob a department store, enjoys every minute of its own meanness. As the titular, potty-mouthed bad Santa, Billy Bob Thornton finally found a role that utilizes his everyman sympathies while showcasing his very dark comedic talents. And when the Father Christmas finds just a teensy bit of a heart in the end, well, that's just icing on the Christmas cookie.�The Nightmare Before Christmas'It's strange to say that gothic director Tim Burton made my list of favorite Christmas movies, but if you stop and think about it, he's not a bad match for the holidays: the "Edward Scissorhands" director almost always weaves a ribbon of wonder and awe through his films.When it was released, "Nightmare" was his most accessible to date, giving the film a hardcore fan base that has stayed in love with the "Halloween takes over Christmas" story for over a decade now.
Efficient Garrard gets job done Jaguars figure to keep surging versus ...
We see a distinctive edge for Jacksonville, which is in wild-card position in the AFC," said The Gold Sheet handicapper Chuck Sippl, who is siding with the Jaguars as 101/2-point home favorites. "Garrard has done a great job. He has been impressive with his accuracy. The Carolina defense has been down, and Jacksonville's running game will open it up for Garrard's play-action passes." Running back Fred Taylor has topped 100 yards in the past two games for the Jaguars, who scored at least 24 points in each of their past six. Garrard threw his first interception of the season in the fourth quarter of last week's 28-25 loss at Indianapolis. Jacksonville still is a game ahead of Cleveland and Tennessee in the AFC. Sippl said the Panthers, who have lost five of their past six, are "fragile" with veteran Vinny Testaverde at quarterback.
Serious questions plague charity’s leaders, practices
A married couple who took over Pierce County's oldest charity appear to be profiting from it in ways that raise questions of conflicts of interest and possible violations of federal tax law. Tacoma political operator Jamie Beletz and his wife, lawyer Mel Curtiss, joined the board of directors of Gateways for Youth and Families shortly after attending a fundraiser in late 2003, and quickly gained control over an organization that dates to 1890. Beletz and Curtiss recruited allies to the board and ousted longtime employees. Beletz then jumped from volunteer board chairman to temporary paid president. And he left that position 10 months later after a cursory Gateways job search gave the president's position to his wife. While he later served as chairman of the Gateways foundation, it's unclear at this time whether he remains with that group.
New laws fight ID theft, extend health benefit
The other will prevent potentially thousands of young adults from suddenly being dropped from their parents' health insurance once they graduate from college. These are two big but very different consumer issues. Let's take them one at a time. First, the identity-theft weapon: the ability to put a "security freeze" on your credit report. Freezing your credit report prevents new creditors from looking at it. If a creditor can't see a report, it is not about to extend credit to you or anyone else trying to open accounts under your name. You can lift the freeze before applying for new credit. Maryland law requires credit bureaus to allow residents to freeze their reports, starting next month. But just weeks ago, the three major credit bureaus, which long resisted freezes, started allowing everyone to put his reports on ice.
