  • City of Los Angeles Resolution "Uggie"
    CITY OF LOS ANGELES RESOLUTION "UGGIE" WHEREAS, Uggie was rejected by at least his first two owners as being too wild. He was about to be sent to a dog pound, but was adopted by animal trainer Omar Von Muller after his friends alerted him to the dog. Von Muller only intended to foster the dog while he found him a new home, but decided that U ggie should stay. WHEREAS, Uggie was a crazy, very energetic puppy. Uggie was very smart and very willing to work. One of the most important things was that U ggie was not afraid of things. That is what makes or breaks a dog in the movies, whether they are afraid of lights, and noises and being on sets; and WHEREAS, Uggie is rewarded with sausages, to encourage him to perform, but that is only a part of it. When not working, Uggie lives in North Hollywood with Von Muller, Von Muller's wife, and Von Muller's six­ year old daughter. There are seven other dogs in the household, all of whom work in the film industry; and WHEREAS, Uggie's earliest roles were in commercials and minor roles in the films What's Up Scarlett, Wassup Rockers (2005), and Mr. Fix It (2006) alongside David Boreanaz. His first named role, and big break, was as ''Queenie" in the romantic drama Water for Elephants, alongside actors Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon; and WHEREAS, Uggie appeared in "The Incredible Dog Show" from August 2010 onwards, a tour of dogs with different tricks, which toured the United States and South America; his trick was riding a skateboard; and WHEREAS, in 20 ll silent movie The Artist, and it was this role that brought him to the attention of 1 mass media, with some critics describing him as "stealing every scene' • He had two stunt doubles in the film, named Dash and Dude, who were colored to look more like Uggie, but Uggie did most ofhis own stunts and the doubles were barely required.

A postgrad year is another year of high school, while a gap year usually involves traveling and isn’t as academically oriented. Seniors from the class of 2012 that will be taking a gap year include Luke Costley, Tom Dils, and Katie Swoap, while Ryan Mahar will be taking a PG year. What would entice a student not to go directly to college? Greylock seniors had varying motives for taking gap or PG years. Although Katie Swoap already traveled halfway around the world when she lived in Australia several years ago, she still yearns for adventure. Swoap says, “I first Photo courtesy of Jacob and Hannah Paul heard of gap years when I was in Australia, and that is when I knew I wanted to take one.” Swoap will be taking her gap year For this month's 1-in-650, we sat down in Argentina for eleven months through the Photo: Jonah Majumder with Hannah and Jacob Paul.

  • News from France June 2012 a Free Monthly Review of French News & Trends Hollande Makes First Visit to U.S
    Vol. 12.04 News From France June 2012 A free monthly review of French news & trends Hollande Makes First Visit to U.S. as President In a whirlwind start as France’s President of the Republic, François Hollande took strides along the international stage during a four-day visit to the United States on May 18 through 21. Mr. Hollande, who had been inaugurated into office just three days previously, visited Washington and Chicago in what was his first trip outside of Europe as a head of state. He was greeted by U.S. President Barack Obama the morning of Friday, May 18, for a bilateral meeting in the White House’s Oval Office. Accompanied by senior- level staff, the two enjoyed a cordial first encounter that included policy discus- sions on subjects including Afghanistan, the euro currency zone, and a less serious aside between Mssrs. Hollande and Obama cheeseburgers. After leaving the White House, Mr. Hollande met with Prime Minister David Cameron. The UK’s highest elected official was also in Washington for the Group of Eight (G8) Summit the following day at Camp David, Maryland. Organized in 2008 with leadership from France as a response to the global financial crisis, the G8 regularly gathers the world’s eight largest economies to coordinate global eco- nomic stability. A press conference was held later the same afternoon at the French embassy in Washington with 80 French and international journalists present. Mr. Hollande then met with the French community in Washington at the embassy, with whom he dicussed the election, his plans for the next five years, and expressed his thanks for the French community’s support.
