It's that time of year again when Hollywood pats itself on the back for a job well done on a bunch of films that came out in fall or winter, ignoring great films that came out earlier in the year like "Zodiac." While I care very little about the Oscars in general (let's be honest here: a silly little statue of a naked gold man means nothing), here are my picks for the show on Sunday.
Giant posters of bloody bodies on UF's Plaza of the Americas on Wednesday offered passersby and students eating lunch pictures of what organizers called a new kind of genocide - abortion.
