But first-time director Gilroy (who scripted the first two Bourne movies and collaborated on the third) has a knack for tunneling deep into cliché and coming out the other side. The title character, elegantly embodied by George Clooney, is something of a spiritual brother to Matt Damon's tormented amnesiac spy. Michael Clayton is a Jason Bourne who, unlucky for him, actually does remember all the terrible things he's done. Michael is the fixer for a top-drawer New York legal firm, a former public prosecutor who resides somewhere in the shadowy space between attorney and bagman. In essence, he's paid to protect wealthy fuckups from publicity, and from their own consciences. As the movie opens—the first 20 minutes are slow but dense, packed with details that become important later—Clayton is heading upstate to provide counsel to a well-heeled hit-and-run driver.
Post details: Don't believe the hype
Opponents of the proposed city charter amendment wielded a weak argument at Monday's Lincoln City Council meeting. They said the proposal, which would prevent elected officials and council members from having contracts with the city, would prevent business owners from running for city office. That would be true only if a business depended on city contracts. Most businesses don't. There would continue to be plenty of business candidates if the amendment were enacted. Conversely, the proposal would boost the city's ability to demand good, or at least adequate, performance on contracts. Right now city employees find themselves in the uncomfortable position of enforcing contracts on people who control the city's budget. To this political independent, the proposed amendment seems in the taxpayer's best interests.

Kristin Day column: 'Day Trippin'
At the start of my sophomore year at ECU, I announced to my family I was dropping my standing as a pre-law student and studying journalism. It's a big jump from the law to the press, but that's not what seemed to bother my mother. She couldn't understand why I chose newspapers over television. .
