What a perfect time to release a football movie.

"Leatherheads," a film directed by and starring George Clooney George Timothy Clooney (May 6, 1961) is an American actor, director, producer and screenwriter who gained fame as the lead doctor in the long-running television drama, ER , opens today with a look through a faux vintage lens at how pro football was back in the 1920s. Lots of rules hadn't been developed yet, because the game had existed for only a few years.

It's also before there were industrywide professional standards for journalists. Don't let Renee Zellweger's character in this film mislead you. Reporters are not supposed to fraternize frat·er·nize

Over in the live music world, there's one young guy most people can follow without any ethics violations.

Scott Gilmore, whose band Just People releases a new CD Saturday at Luckey's, is thinking about a revolution. He's starting his movement with music - by giving his CDs and mp3s away for free.

We suggest you take him up on his offer and sample the song "Eugene," which every college lad with an acoustic guitar secretly will wish he wrote upon hearing. That song is posted for free listening and downloading, along with some other tracks, on our blog: rgweb.registerguard.com/ticketfiles.

Finally, on your next trip to WOW Hall you might want to stop in the lobby and look at an exhibit created by young people who live, have lived or are at risk of living on the streets. "Unheard Voices/Unseen Lives: A Path to Empowerment" is the first time these people, ages 17 to 22, have displayed their works publicly.
