AWKWARD, 30 DAYS ... OF NIGHT, JIMMY EAT WORLD, ATROCITIES Thinking of awkward stuff is tiring. It hearkens back to all those awful moments when you drop an f-bomb in front of your friend’s rather proper mother. Luckily, we’re out of middle school, so we can joke about this stuff. And how ugly we were with braces.

university brief Brown uses Facebook to keep tabs on parties PROVIDENCE, R.I. — The Office of Student Life at Brown University is now periodically perusing Facebook for information on upcoming parties, said Margaret Klawunn, associate vice president for campus life and dean of student life. Klawunn said there has been an unusually high number of com- plaints this fall from area residents about students’ off-campus parties, and “we just want to remind off-cam- pus students that the same rules and regulations apply to them,” she said. The main goal of using Facebook to collect information about upcom- ing parties has been to better know what is happening on a given weekend, Klawunn said. She also encourages students to send party and Facebook invitations only to the Brown community. Recently, Associate Dean of Student Life Terry Addison used Facebook to find the students responsible for an off-campus party after he had been made aware of it through a neighbor’s complaint. In that situation, he contacted the students to make them aware of their responsibilities as both Brown students and Providence residents, not to discipline them. The officials at the Department of Public Safety only check Facebook when investigating complaints, said Mark Porter, chief of police and direc- tor of public safety.

region brief Three teens charged with killing Seattle-area man SEATTLE — Three teenagers have been charged with murder after police say they shot and killed a Seattle-area man who caught them burglarizing his home last week. Forty-six-year-old Craig Hoffman chased a 14-year-old and two 15-year-olds he found inside his home in the White Center neighbor- hood south of Seattle on Friday. Prosecutors say one of the 15-year-olds fired several rounds at Hoffman, killing the married father of four. That boy was charged with first-degree murder on Wednesday. The other two were charged with second-degree murder. Each was charged as a juvenile, but the King County prosecutor’s office says it wants to try them as adults.

EVIN K CONTACTED THIS pires would do things I guess were supposed to be creepy, but just came off as cheesy. There’s only so many times a vampire can jump into a scene making loud noises before you stop caring. The writers also threw in some humor to break the tension, but when you’ve been chuckling at the ridiculous- ness of the movie the whole time, there’s really no tension to break and it just makes you laugh harder. pointed they’re making movies like “30 Days of Night,” but on the other hand, I love it because it means it’s almost Halloween, the most wonder- ful time of the year. You can find me at the theater first in line for the late showing of “Saw IV” this Friday and you can read my review of it in a week. CHIFFELBEIN THE GRADE THE 335-1099 S AT

It’s hard to tell what’s happening because everything happens so fast it just becomes blurry and dis- torted. It gets so bad that in the final climactic scene the bad guy dies and you really have no idea why or what happened. A note to future directors: Garrett Brown created the steadicam for a reason. Use it so people know what’s happening. Beside the shaking camera work, there were several good shots where they were focused on someone in the street, but you could see vampires jumping from rooftop to rooftop in the background.

Not so the Colorado Rockies, who showed up in Beantown looking rusty not rested. Back in the World Series with no Bambino’s curse to worry about, the Red Sox flattened the Rockies 13-1 in Wednesday night’s World Series opener. Beckett got off to the most over- powering start since Sandy Koufax, Pedroia became only the second player to lead off the Series with a home run, and then a relentless offense led by Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz racked up hit after hit. Boston set a record for runs and victory margin in an opener and fin- ished with 17 hits, becoming the first club to hit eight doubles in a Series game since 1925. After taking a 6-1 lead against Colorado ace Jeff Francis, the Red Sox piled on seven runs in the fifth, when Rockies reliever Ryan Speier walked three straight batters with the bases loaded — the first time that ever happened in a Series game. Make no mistake, these Red Sox are slick, and not just because of an on-and-off drizzle that seemed to dampen the noise from 36,733 fans TYLER TJOMSLAND/DAILY EVERGREEN in Fenway Park.
