Why do it? That's like making a submarine movie without leaks, or a romantic-comedy with no wacky mi sundersta nd ings. In "Timeline." modern-day archaeology students travel brick to the 14th century to rescue a colleague and get stuck in a bow-and-arrow battle between the evil British and the kindly French. Sounds like it 's loaded with paradoxes, ri ght'' Save the life of one soldier, and maybe the course of history changes. Inte rfere with an entire battle and the future-as-they-k newit is obliterated, right? May be they were never born. and what then'? There is no such delicate speculation in "Timeline." Instead o r timequakes and future-ripples, all we get are battl e scenes and stude nts who know who's going to win. This is just an excuse to put a pretty boy (Paul 'W al ker of "The Fast and the Furious'') back in time. There is no mystery or imagination to be fo und in this "fantasy" from "Jurassic Park" writer Michael Crichton. · Walker plays the son of a famous archaeologist (B illy Connolly), who has disappeared in the midst of researching the 600-year-old ruins in the Dordogne Valley of France.

But Bernie 's unlucky streak extends outside the casino 's clock-free, windowless walls to his dreary life in the desert sun . His cat ran away. His plants are dead. And a social life ? He's busted there, too. That is until he meets Natali e (Maria Bello). a who cocktai l waitress befriends him just as he's a few days away from clearing his debt and leaving town. The two fumble toward each other awkwardly, even a little too quickly. The first word out of hi s mouth after they have sex for the first time is, "Sorry." "It's OK, Bernie.

Macy' uses that unlikely likability to lull effect in "The Coo ler," a film that seems tailor-made for his look, his voice and his demeanor. £Director and co-writer Wayne Kramer has crafted a richly textured film with a clever premise: Macy plays the aptl y named Bernie Lootz, a fo rmer gambler who strolls through the cheesy Shangri-La Casino in Las .

The transfer of power is complete. The 38th gpvemor of California is on the job and, true to hi s word, Gov. Arnold Sch warL.enegger's first order of busi ness following his inauguration Monday was to repeal the car-tax hike. He al so called the Legislature into special session today to address a range of issues, including 'Yorkers' compensation and the repeal of a new law that 'allows undocumented workers to acquire driver's licenses. But, that is just a warm-up for the most pressing issue - tackling a stale budget that seems to grow worse by the day. By rolling bac k the car tax. Schwarzenegger has, on hi s first day, increased the state's projected budget shortfall - now estimated al $ 10.6 hillion - by $4.2 billion : SchwarLenegger knows the problems. which he outlined in hi s inaugural address ... . · Advisers close to Schwarzenegger have said he is considering a plan to ask voters to approve a $20 billion bond measure that would cover an existi ng shortfall of about $10 billion, help close the gap on next year 's shortfall, and provide support for cities and counties. Although the bond solves some problems, there will be huge repayment costs that will almost double the debt by the time it is paid back - to $39.7 billion. ... The new governor can certainly use hi ~ celebrity, voter mandate and the extraordinary way he was elected to good effect, especially during thi s honeymoon period. We question, however, whether borrowing from the future to avoid temporary tax increases in the present is the solution Californians signed on for when they elected him. What Cali fornia needs is an administration that wi ll craft policies to bring back investors and renew employers· confidence. To be effective, Schwarzenegger mu st work not only with the Democratic-controlled Legislature, but with members of his own ·party to institute true reform. PageA4 I Monday, December 1, 2003 Silence .of the watchdogs Remember the tree that fell in the forest, causing a ruckus of breaking bt"dnches and cracking trunks· as it crashed? According to the fortune-cookie school of philosophy that popularized this conundrum, there would be no noise, or no verifiable noise, if there were no human being around to witness it ... unle ss, I would hasten to add, the human witness on hand happened to be a journalist. With a journali st - or, rather. with a press corps you never know what reverberations an event or revelation will generate. And I'm not even thinking of the big media silence on the socalled 'Feith Memo.' Tossed out many news cycles ago by the Weekly Standard in the form of a big, fat scoop , this top-secret U.S. government memo· offers intelligence, in 50 numbered points, on the operational relationship it says has exi sted between Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein since the early 1990s. The Standard called its article 'Case Closed,' but that doesn't mean the press shouldn't even take a peak. This time, it's another Big Story that has been reliably launched only to sink with .little trace. It concerns the resurgence of anti-Semitism in Europe, and it broke in the Financial Times on Nov. ·2 I. 'The European Union's racism watchdog has shelved a report o n anti-Semitism,' the newspaper repmted, ' ~ Diana w,st 'because the study concl uded Muslims and pro-Palestinian groups were behind many of the incidents it examined.' This suppression is a disgrace. Having commissioned the report during a shocking Euro pean ups ur~e in antiSemitic violence tn 2002, the EU ha s now buried the report during anot her shocking European up surge in antiSemitic violence in 2003. Indeed, the Financial Times published its initial story the same week that two Jewish synagog ues in Turkey were devastated by Islamic bombers, and a Jewish school near Paris was fire bumbed. A French-language news Web site, www.revue politique.com, now reports that the brutal murder of a Jewish DJ in Paris on Nov. 19 may have been an act of Muslim anti-Semitism. According to the Financial Times, the EU racism commission (EUMC) was appalled by the report's conclusion that the new antiSemitism is largely a phe· nomenon of the 21st-century left and the Islamic movement in Europe. As Juliane Wetzel of the Berlin research center that completed the research told the newspaper in a follow-up stoll', 'The study put the EUMC m a difficult situation because it singled out the ~roup (young Muslims), whtch they (the EUMC) seek to protect They refused to publisJJ it because it clashed with political correctness.' Refusing to publish the report is an embarrassment that exposes the lengths to which European bureaucrats will go to suppress a terrible truth to sustain a dangerous fantasy - namely, that antiSemihsm is the sole province of jackbooted rightists swilling beer and siegi ng heil . But the bureaucrats have been thwarted. Their story is out Juicy details abou nd - as in the fact that the same EU racism commtsswn has already brought out three reports o n anti-Islamic attitude s in Europe in the two years since 9/11. But practically no media organi zation in Europe or the United States has yet to take up the cry. Such journalistic silence does more than deprive us of information. It sucks the oxyge n from the free exchange of ideas, stifling . debate before it occurs. This undermines more than the state of the press . It adversely affects public discourse everywhere, lending credence to the pernicious notion that subjects of grave importance Muslim anti-Semitism and European denial, fo r example Monday, December 1, 2003 Deaths Pastor brings help and hope to city's down-and-out Bobby King must be co nsigned to furtive whispers, if they are mentioned at all. This same silence leads to a tyranny of political correct· ness, as evidence(! by author Robert Spencer's recent experience. Hi s 2002 book, 'Islam Unveiled' (Encounter, 2002), a carefully researched analysis of the disturbing links between Koranic teachings and Islamic terrorism, was slated for publication in France this month. Death threats against both the book's translator, French writer Guy Milliere, and its French publisher, Yves Michalon, have frightened the publishing house into canceling the book (' It's ironic,' Mr. Spencer said in an interview with · www.frontpagemag.com. 'If you don't say Islam is a religion of peace, they will kill you.') Before shouting vive Ia France avec irony, it's wm:th noting that author Ibn Warraq has heard from U.S. publishing sources that similar fears have prevented an American reprint of hi s excellent 1995 book , 'Why I Am Not a Muslim.' Hiding facts and suppressing arguments - not publishing them, nol airing them, not facing them - doesn't make them go away. It chokes the free flow of ideas our democracies require to survive.

Police in this Dayton suburb were investigating the death of a Vandalia man during what they said was a brawl involving four carloads of young people early Sunday. The dead. man was identified as Douglas Moeller, 21. Gerry Gustin, police public information officer, said a suspect in his early 20s was in custody. The suspect's identity was withheld pending formal charges . The clash escalated about 3:50 am. when some of the occupants of the cars started fighting in the street with baseball bats and knives, Gustin said. Police officers found blood in the street. "Many people fium the scene, 3I!<i .people that were stopped leavmg the scene, were taken to the Huber Heights police station to be interviewed," Gustin said. Gustin said Huber Heights detectives interviewed 10 to 15 people. Gustin, however, said he could not say how many people were involved in the ftght or supply their name s. He said the ages range from late teens to early 20s. "Due to the number of persons involved in thi s incident and the large crime . scene, much of the details of the incident cannot be released right now," Gustin said on Sunday.

And the Seahawks turned in a great defensive performance against the Cleveland Browns. too. " We're rolling. and we're not done yet," Shaun Alexander said. "Thi s is getting exciting for us." Hasselbeck threw for 328 yards and three touchdowns and Alexander rushed for 127 yards and another TD, leading Seattle to a 34-7 victory Sunday over the reeling Browns. " We feel like we can do a lot better, a nd this is not ou r final goal ," Hasselbeck said. "We have a final goal - and we don 't talk about it a lot - but we want to b~ playing at the end of the year." The Seahawks (8-4) had 463 yards one week after getti ng 426 in an overtime loss at Baltimore. Hasselbeck compl eted 26 of 35 passes with one interception, and Seattle was a remarkable 11 -of- 15 on third-down conversions when he was ln. 'That is a very key. stati stic in any game, next to turnovers," Seahawks coach l'ytike Holmgren said. Darrell Jackson, whose troubles catching. the ball earlier this fa ll were well documented, had eight receptions for 102 yards and two touchdowns, while Koren Robin so.n caught six passes for 122 yards. It was the tirst game in fra nchise history where the Seahawks had a 300-yard passer, a 100-yard rusher and two 100yard receivers. " We have so many weapons and everybody is peaking right now," Robin son said. "On any given play, we . can hurt you." Seattle improved to 7-0 at home for the first time since 1984, matching a club home-field record that year en route to a 12-4 mark. Going back to last season, the Seahawks have won eight straight home games and nine of I0. Seattle remained one game behind St. Louis in the NFC West while sending the Browns (4-8) to their fifth Joss in six games. It was Cleveland's most lopsided loss in three seasons under coach Butch Davis, eclipsing a 23-point loss at 'Green · Bay on Dec. 23, 2001. "We got beat by a good football team today," Davis said. "We didn 't play very well at times." The only blemish on Seaule's solid performance came on special teams. For the second straight week, the Seahawks had a punt blocked and returned fo r a TD. Andre King ran one back 28 yards with 3:23' to play. Seattle ' s defense all owed only 47 yards rushing. Cleveland finished with 204 total yards, much of it coming on late 'passes. The Browns got inside Seattle's. 20 only once, and Ken Lucas intercepted a pass by Kelly Holcomb to highlight Seattle's best defensive effort since a 380 win at Arizona in Week 2.
