The company says "upon reflection" it will remove Diana and all references to the Royal family from its forthcoming X-Statix monthly comics, reports the BBC. (I know its a cut and paste, but I had to share this. I know there are many Di fans here who will be happy that her memory is not sullied by such trvialisation. Di deserves her own live action feature. How about Tomb Raider III, Lara Croft accidently revives Di?) read full story / add a comment

The Palestinians are unique among the world's nation wannabes in several ways. First, they have the backing of most of the world's oil wealth and thus the industrial nations that kowtow in lust of it. The Gulf Caliphs caught on long ago that in order to preserve their own corrupt, profligate, illegal regimes they needed some perennial distraction for their ignorant masses--why not the Jews? read full story / add a comment

The Battle of the Ganges: The Ganges has become a river poisoned by sewage. In three thousand year old Benares, the most celebrated religious city in India, the pollution is now hundreds of times above the safe limit. Sewage is even back flowing into the streets. A Holy man, Veer Bhandra Mishra, (also a scientist) is fighting for the survival of this world famous ancient culture. This award-winning documentary paints an intimate picture of an extraordinary River Ganges in crisis and the plans that could save it. An Mháthair Ganges: Tá an Gainséis truaillithe ag séarachas. Tá an fhadhb thar a bheith go dona i gcathair Benares, atá 3000 bliain d'aois agus atá ar an gcathair is cráifí san India. Tá fear cráifeach, Veer Bhandra Mishra, ar eolaí é, ag troid le go mairfidh an cultúr ársa seo. Tugann an clár faisnéise seo, a bhfuil duais bainte amach aige, dlúth-íomhá dúinn ar an nGainséis i ngéarchéim agus faighimid léargas ar na pleananna atá ar bun a d'fhéadfadh an abhainn a tharrtháil. read full story / add a comment |
