The "Friday Night Lights" star is filming "The Chicago Code" in the Windy City. (Show Patrol photo) Matt Lauria misses his "Friday Night Lights" character, Luke Cafferty. The actor wrapped his scenes in Austin, Texas, on a Saturday in late July, hopped a plane to Chicago and began filming Fox's "The Chicago Code" (formerly "Ride-Along") on Monday. He's been working in the Windy City since then, living in Lincoln Park with his musician wife, Michelle Armstrong, trying out the local dining scene and riding bikes on the Lakefront Path. I met with Lauria Saturday to talk about the final season of "FNL," which debuted Oct. 27 on DirecTV 101. "Friday Night Lights" follows the football-loving town of Dillon, Texas, its two high school teams and Eric Taylor (Kyle Chandler), who has coached both the teams. Lauria hasn't played any football since wrapping "FNL," but during our chat at The Bourgeois Pig he got a bit sentimental about Luke, the running back who last year was forced to leave the champion Dillon Panthers team and play for Coach with the lowly East Dillon Lions. "I always felt a closeness to Luke ever since he got kicked off the team. I just kind of related to him somehow," Lauria told me. "I'm not a football player, but I just knew where his heart was and how that disappointment felt."

Why doesn’t the video I shoot with my DSLR look as good as the stills?”

critical thinking demands objective examination of a topic and then a conscious response to that examination.

The ability to think critically is arguably the most important skill for the 21st century person. It’s the equipment anyone can use to navigate a world of ideas that are increasingly unmitigated and available—everyone is tweeting, blogging, and broadcasting into the ether, so sorting through all the static is that much more important.

Consider who wrote the piece.

I am not going to give you a blurb about each video because the message I have received from these videos may be different to yours. But I will say that each TED talk has given me the knowledge and motivation to do better and be better next year.

Today is one of the most exciting days of my life. My greatest passion and calling is to help people through my teachings and charitable work.
