* Brett Lovaas, whose name is sometimes lewdly mispronounced, picked up his first win of the season at the umteenth Elysian Triathlon on Saturday. Last year's ET champ Todd Landgraff, whose name is rarely mispronounced and is enjoying a breakout season in 2010, finished 2nd only 10 seconds behind Mr. Lah-vass' (phonetic pronunciation with accent). Jackie Pribyl, whose last name is slightly vowel-starved (an ethnic deal), was the women's champion. Almost 300 athletes participated in this year's event. RESULTS

There's a great scene (among a plethora of great scenes!) in the 1987 movie classic "Broadcast News" wherein Tom Grunick (William Hurt) accuses Jane Craig (Holly Hunter) of "Lighting up a room...then leaving." Craig had just burst into his office amid a wonderful barrage of profanity and accusation aimed at Grunick, only to discover that Grunick's terminally straight-laced father was present. The acerbic words--"Light up a room...then leave"--were deadpanishly delivered as Hunter's mortified character slunk round-shouldered from the room.
Hurt and Hunter received well-deserved Best Actor Oscar nominations for their portrayals...
