MY DREAM : Advance the Web Dow Drops 203 Points, : MY SCHOOL Capitol College Interrupting 2012 Rally D[m Oeha Stocks suffered their biggest losses in three months Tuesday, the first hiccup in a strong and steady rally to start the year. Wall Street worried about the global economy and waited while Greece pressured the last investors to sign on for its bailout. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 203.66 points, giving up more than a quarter of its 745-point advance since Jan. 1, the best start to a year in the U.S. market since 1998. “When things go straight up and don’t ever correct or have some sort of normal pullback, as an investor, that makes me nervous,” said Ed Hyland, a global investment specialist with J.P. Morgan Private Bank. The gradual rally had been powered by optimism about the U.S. economic recovery. But investors realized that Greece’s debt problems, Europe’s economic problems and Israel’s Iran problems were still very much their problems, too.

8WYaijeho The stock market’s Tuesday sell-off, which spread west from Europe, also interrupted a period of unusual calm on Wall Street. Before Tuesday, the Dow had not fallen 100 points for 45-straight trading sessions, the longest streak since 2006. The decline of 203.66 points was the worst for the Dow since Nov. 23 and left the average at 12,759.15. It was only last week that the Dow closed above 13,000 for the first time since May 2008, four months before the worst of the financial crisis. (AP)

All 10 industry groups in the Standard & Poor’s 500 declined. Bank stocks, which typically take a hit when there is any reason to worry about Greece, led the declines, followed by industrial and materials companies, which depend on strength in the world economy. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 20.97 points. The Nasdaq composite index dropped 40.16 points. JOSHUA FREED (AP)

a regulator. Prosecutors and Stanford’s family members declined to comment, but one of his investors, Cassie Wilkinson, welcomed the verdict. “As an investor, you have to doubt whether or not you were stupid or just taken advantage of. This relieves that doubt. It’s a vindication,” said Wilkinson, 62, who lives in Houston. Stanford, 61, faces up to 20 years in prison for the most serious charges against him. But if Hittner orders him to serve his sentences consecutively, Stanford could get up to 230 years in prison. Disgraced ﬁnancier Bernard Madoff, by comparison, was sentenced to 150 years in prison for orchestrating the largest Ponzi scheme in history. (AP)

Nuke Talks With Iran to Resume Obama: Diplomacy, not military action, can still resolve spat MWi^_d]jed Alarmed by rising talk of war, the United States, Europe and other world powers announced Tuesday that bargaining will begin again with Iran over its fiercely disputed nuclear efforts. In Washington, President Obama declared he had been working to avert war with Iran during meetings with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this week. Israel, fearing the prospect of a nuclear Iran, has stressed a need for possible military action, but Obama said sanctions and diplomacy were already working. Obama, at his ﬁrst news conference this year, spoke for capitals around the world in warning that “bluster” and posturing to appear tough on Iran could edge the world closer to an avoidable war.

erine Ashton said that the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council — the U.S., Britain, France, Russia and China —

and Germany had agreed to a new round of nuclear talks with Iran more than a year after suspending them in frustration.

The rush to diplomacy was partly an answer to increasingly hawkish rhetoric from Israel, which is considering a military strike on Iranian nuclear facilities this spring. Obama and Western allies say such a strike would be risky and premature, and that there is still time to convince Iran that it is better off without nuclear weapons. In Washington, Obama said he saw a “window of opportunity” to use diplomacy instead of military force to resolve the dispute. Britain’s foreign secretary, William Hague, said the onus would “be on Iran to convince the international community that its nuclear program is exclusively peaceful.” German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle called for a diplomatic solution. “A nuclear-armed Iran must be prevented,” he said. Iran insists that its program is only for energy production and other peaceful purposes. The negotiations between Iran and the bloc would resume at a “mutually convenient time and date,” Ashton said.

Afghanistan’s president on Tuesday endorsed a “code of conduct” issued by an influential council of clerics that activists say represents a giant step backward for women’s rights in the country. President Hamid Karzai’s

remarks backing the Ulema Council’s document, which allows husbands to beat wives under certain circumstances and encourages segregation of the sexes, is seen as part of his outreach to insurgents. Both the U.S. and Karzai hope that the Taliban can be brought into negotiations to end the country’s decade-long war. But activists say they’re worried that gains made by women since 2001 may be lost in the process. Among the “code of conduct” LIPOSUCTION-TUMMYTUCK.com

The shadowy underworld of Internet hackers was rocked by news Tuesday that one of the world’s most-wanted and most-feared computer vandals has been an FBI informant for months and helped authorities build a case against five alleged comrades. The FBI said it captured the legendary hacker known as “Sabu” last June, and he turned out to be Hector Xavier Monsegur, 28, a self-taught computer programmer. His exploits made him a hero to some in cyberspace until he made a rookie mistake — he posted something online without cloaking his IP address, or computer identity — and someone tipped off the FBI. Soon after his arrest, he pleaded guilty and began spilling secrets, leading to charges Tuesday against five people in Europe and the U.S. for conspiracy to commit computer hacking, and preventing more than 300 attacks along the way, authorities said. Law enforcement officials said it marked the first time core members of the loosely organized worldwide hacking group Anonymous have been identified and charged in the U.S. Investigators said Monsegur and the other defendants were all associated with the group, and some were also part of the elite spin-off organization that Monsegur formed last May, Lulz Security or LulzSec.

He took his Internet name from Sabu the Elephant Boy, a pro-wrestler in the 1980s and 1990s who espoused antigovernment, anticapitalist ideologies, Fox News said. (E XPRESS/AP)

“Lulz” is Internet slang for “laughs.” The defendants were accused in court papers of hacking into corporations and government agencies around the world, including the U.S. Senate; ﬁlching confidential information; defacing websites; and temporarily putting victims out of business. Ofﬁcials said their crimes affected more than 1 million people. Prosecutors said that among other things, the hackers, with Monsegur as their ringleader, disrupted websites belonging to Visa, Mastercard and Paypal in 2010 and 2011 because the companies refused to accept donations to WikiLeaks, the organization that spilled a trove of U.S. military and diplomatic secrets. But it was the arrest of Monsegur that sent shock waves through the Anonymous movement, where many described him as one of the group’s most skilled hackers.

Monsegur pleaded guilty in August to charges that included conspiracy to commit hacking, admitting he obtained dozens of credit card numbers online and gave them to others or used them to pay his bills. His deal with prosecutors requires his full cooperation and testimony at any trial. In return, he gets leniency from a potential prison sentence of more than 120 years. He is free on $50,000 bail. Barrett Brown, a former journalist who became closely associated with Anonymous, said Sabu’s cooperation with the FBI could do serious damage to Anonymous. “He was an admired Anon,” Brown said. “He’s been a leader. People came to him with information. God knows what else he told them.” L ARRY NEUMEISTER AND R APHAEL SAT TER (AP)

Henry Sims leads Georgetown with 3.4 assists per game. His size advantage should pay dividends for the Hoyas in this week’s Big East tournament in New York.

NICK WASS/AP

Connecticut’s start to the 2012 Big East tournament looked a lot like the way the Huskies began last year’s incredible run that ended with a conference title and a national championship. With coach Jim Calhoun, above, on the bench, UConn dominated DePaul for an 81-67 victory on Tuesday. In the other afternoon game, Pittsburgh defeated St. John’s 73-59 behind Ashton Gibbs’ 20 points. (AP)

I?CI 9?JO Georgetown builds its offense around its senior center’s ability to pass >eoWi >eefi If college basketball were poker, Georgetown would be one of those teams that opponents dread seeing on the other side of the table. No matter what hand their foes are holding, the Hoyas typically have an answer — whether it’s their depth, length, versatility or schemes. It’s that versatility, created by a uniquely skilled roster, that the No. 13 Hoyas (227, 12-6 in the Big East) hope to ride deep into this week’s Big East tournament. Having earned a first-round

bye, ﬁfth-seeded Georgetown will face Pittsburgh, which defeated St. John’s on Tuesday, in Wednesday’s second round. “They were more talented last year, but it’s a much better team this year,” South Florida coach Stan Heath said after Georgetown’s 30-point smackdown over his Bulls on Feb. 4. “Their length bothers you. They have a lot of different weapons.”

HENRY SIMS, WHO LED GEORGETOWN TO A 59-41 WIN OVER THE IRISH LAST WEEK.

W hile senior Jason Cla rk and junior Hollis Thompson are Georgetown’s top scorers, 6-foot10 center Henry Sims is an ace up the team’s sleeve. Sims’ size and position on the f loor have made him a key cog in the offense. The senior, who improved from 3.6 points per game

last season to this year’s 11.1 average, is as much a threat with his passing as he is with his scoring. Many have referred to Sims — who averages a team-high 3.4 assists per game — as Georgetown’s point guard on a roster that doesn’t really have one. Marquette coach Buzz Williams, whose No. 9 Golden Eagles earned a season-split with the Hoyas with an 83-69 win on Saturday, drew a favorable comparison between Sims and former Georgetown big man Greg Monroe, who was known as a great passer. “In our preparation, I thought he was the key to their game,” Williams said of Sims. “Everything runs through him, regardless of whether he catches it on the block or whether he catches it at the elbow.” With Clark and Thompson showing their range from outside, Sims gives the Hoyas a full house with his presence and versatility in the paint. “That’s what we need him to do,” Georgetown coach John Thompson III said. “The balance between when is it his turn to score and when is it his turn to get his teammates the shot, for most of the year, with a few glaring exceptions, he’s been very good at that balance.” KRYSTINA LUCIDO

The Terrapins were a disappointing 2-10, and after the season, 12 players decided it was time to leave. But Edsall isn’t letting any of that diminish his resolve to build a winning football program at Maryland. Soon after the Terrapins put the

Blatche Stung by Boos - F$C$ Wed. | CSN

J^[ M_pWhZi Nearly five weeks of separation should’ve provided enough time for the hostile relationship many Wizards fans had with Andray Blatche to thaw. Turns out, it just gave many more time to clear their throats. Blatche returned last Saturday against Cleveland, and the past two games, including Monday’s 120-100 loss to the Golden State Warriors, have served as a reminder that mistakes he has made in his seven years with the organization have not been forgiven — and possibly never will be. Washington hosts the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday. Blatche has become the latest target of derision for frustrated Wizards fans, having already expressed their disgust for Juwan Howard and Kwame Brown before those two were eventually traded away. In the second year of an extension that will pay him $35 million over the next ﬁve years — and

After Blatche — who finished with four points and four rebounds — bumbled through his first stint, Wittman decided to sneak him in during a timeout in the second half. But Blatche played so poorly, getting beat for a rebound by tiny Nate Robinson, that Wittman had to pull him. (T WP)

unable to attract any attention in the trade market — Blatche is in an unenviable position: He hears silence when he makes a positive play and has every error magniﬁed by a chorus of boos. “It’s tough. You’re home, and

people that’s supposed to have your back don’t have your back,” a dejected Blatche said after the game. “Instead of encouraging you to get better, they push you down and hope you do worse. It’s not only hurting me; it’s hurting my teammates.” Blatche’s teammates are coming to his defense. “It does nobody any good.

Did you hear the one about the guy who mocked comedy podcasts?

Podcast Away! Last week, the A.V. Club ran an essay that asked, “Are we nearing comedy podcast overload?” In it, writer Steve Heisler argues that, “for the good of comedy, people need to stop creating new [podcasts].” His main concern is overexposure. Because there are so many podcasts, Heisler writes, “appearances by comedians no longer feel special, either on podcasts or at live shows.” The sentiment comes off as snobby 8o HkZ_ and spoiled. For com=h[[dX[h] edy fans who don’t live in hotbeds like New York, Chicago or L.A., podcasts offer precious opportunities to hear comics who don’t tour regularly, in a setting more intimate than a nightclub: our earbuds. What if we applied Heisler’s theory to other mediums: Is television worse off because there are more channels, and by extension more shows, than ever? What about film, music or even YouTube videos? Quantity doesn’t deplete quality. Instead, we pick and choose the best of what’s available. If another podcast is created today, it’s not going to impede the enjoyment of your favorite podcast tomorrow. But if, suddenly, comedians stopped making podcasts, it’d be a sign to me that the medium is dying — not thriving. Read Rudi’s previous columns at: expressnightout.com.

With her latest movie, ‘Friends With Kids,’ Jennifer Westfeldt again skirts convention F[hiedWb_j_[i

“First of all, I’m an Aquarius.” Jennifer Westfeldt is only halfjoking in explaining how she came to be a combatant of convention. In the past 10 years, she has written and starred in three films, each of which takes the anxiety of a particular passage of adulthood — dating, marrying, parenting — and comically, candidly pursues them from an untraditional perspective. In 2002’s “Kissing Jessica Stein,” the film that catapulted Westfeldt to chic indie status, her character tires of men who call themselves “self-defecating” and gives lesbianism a shot. Five years later, in “Ira & Abby,” she played a twice-divorced woman who abandons the considered courtship that led only to heartbreak and gets hitched on a hunch. And now, after another five years, Westfeldt is back with “Friends With Kids,” which opens Friday, and she’s directing for the first time, too. Westfeldt plays Julie, a 30-something New Yorker who has a child with a platonic friend, Jason (Adam Scott), in hopes of maintaining a romantic single life and foregoing the trappings of married parenthood.

“Friends With Kids” may sound like a facile premise, but the title has a double meaning. As much as the ﬁlm is about a pair of friends having a baby, it’s about the experience of seeing your close friends marry, move and lose their old identities. “If someone says something’s impossible, I’m always, like, ‘Really?’” Westfeldt admits. “I don’t just follow or believe things that are dictated. I’m always wondering why it has to be that way.” Westfeldt, 42, doesn’t look like a rebel. She’s a smiley, earnest, downto-earth, fashionable Upper-West-Sider who chats cheerfully while brushing back her long blond hair. “She’s an open book,” says Jon Hamm, her boyfriend of 12 years and a co-star of “Friends With Kids.” “There’s not a lot of subterfuge or deflection in her, probably to her detriment. ... She is the most openhearted, sweetest, most loving person that I know. And I think that’s pretty obvious in the work that she does.” JAKE COYLE (AP)

<Wc_b_Wh 8[Z\[bbemi No, this isn’t a photo from the “Bridesmaids” sequel Kristen Wiig has no intention of writing. Instead, it’s from “Friends With Kids,” which reunites four of that film’s co-stars. This time, Maya Rudolph and Chris O’Dowd, far left, play a sleepdeprived couple drowning in diapers but sticking together, while Wiig and Jon Hamm are paired in a relationship becoming undone by the stress of parenting.

“No, but really, it doesn’t get much better than Adele and Daft Punk on the same track. Thanks to DJ Carlos Serrano, two of our fave artists got a mashup that’ll likely change our lives over the next week. ... [It’s a] track that’s less woeful than Adele’s original and infuses Daft Punk with a little more pop splendor.”

“Dazzling as it all is, we’re glad Cartier told us that the spot recounted its global pedigree, and the panther — which looks an awful lot like a leopard — is a panther, and symbolized its jewelry expertise. Otherwise, we might have wondered what, apart from sparkly feelings, they were trying to convey.”

“As the years have gone on, my St. Patrick’s Day feast has shifted from a beerand-whiskey-fueled binge, towards a family gathering with as many as 10-12 kids running around. Usually by the time the table is cleared and the food is all put away, I’m too tired to do much partying.”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important for you to hope for the best today even as things get unexpectedly difficult. Your outlook is the source of great strength. ARIES (March 21-April 19) You may not want to let someone else know whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really going on â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but on the other hand, it may be the best way to lighten the load a bit. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re no fan of things that are automatic, as they give you no time to think things through as they occur. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You are likely to have trouble getting used to a new development as it happens today. Focus on something familiar for perspective. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You may feel satisfied watching others at work today, but someone who knows you well fears youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing less than you should.

Yesterdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Solution

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You must respect appearances today, even as you strive to deal with the reality underneath them. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bearing a burden well.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Keep smiling today, even when things seem a little heavy or dark. It is too easy, otherwise, to let things have an ill effect on you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You can learn a great deal from the way someone close to you does a certain thing that you think you can do better.

9ec_Yi

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You will feel as though the day is progressing in fits and starts. You can make a decision, however, that evens things out considerably. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been waiting for proof that the powers that be are truly committed to your efforts. It is likely to come before this day is out. DAILY CODE
