		<description>[...] It is important to note that this one is a USC event, and not a Santa Monica event! It is on a Thursday and not a Sunday! You might wonder - why these changes? Ah! I promised to reveal what was going on behind that photo shoot I told you about a long time ago (with K.C., Tara McPherson, and myself - recall the fun we had with that picture?), and now realize that I did not get around to it.

		<description>[...] Well, one of them was selected! When a campus news story was being prepared to announce it, somehow the Annenberg School&#8217;s K.C. Cole, the Cinema-Television School&#8217;s Tara McPherson (who chaired the selection committee) and myself were chosen to be the poster children of the event. This explains the purpose of the photo shoot, about which I blogged some time ago at this link. We had some fun with it, you might recall. (Official photo they used is to the right; contrast, if you will, with the one I showed back then.) [...]</description>

		<description>I like the reality show idea (following on from #8, #9 and #11):  &quot;American Grad Student&quot;

You are the judges of (initially) 1000s of grad students who each week are narrowed down until one of them is proclaimed the one top grad student in America (or just given a doctorate).

Every week the students are set a challenge (perform a calculation in full make-up and studio lights in front of an audience?) and you judge their performance.  Of course one of you has to be ultra lenient (all of the students are wonderful), one is in the middle and one is just plain mean.</description>

		<description>The new show&#039;s name is &quot;Quarks&quot; -- main characters are
Beauty, Charm, and Strange. I leave it to you to assign faces to the names.</description>

		<description>This is sitcom material all way, just look at those faces, on the verge of seriously losing it into puddles of giggles.  Not &quot;angels&quot; but &quot;three&#039;s more than two turf.&quot; Build on those odd-coupling shows, wherein a group of physicists try to get along, given that one expresses himself in only the finest queen&#039;s english, one speaks southern dialectical american english, and the third is pure canuck or at least upper peninsula north.  All living out of place in LALA land, wherein celebrity is more vital to a sense of well being and thus d-branes are assumed to be high fiber breakfast food when overheard in a late night jazz club.</description>
