    “Love Hurts” is a fast-paced darkly comic martial-arts movie, where just about every major character gets shot, stabbed or pummeled repeatedly. But this is a Valentine’s Day flick, set on February 14.

Was asked to judge a photo contest for work. I differed in my choices. In short, I like moose and dog photos.
