...Across town outside the Syndicate of Journalists, a few dozen Kifaya protesters chanted "Down, down Mubarak!" as they were hemmed in by hundreds of black-clad security policemen and scores of plainclothes policemen. "I didn't vote," said Mohammed Fawzi, a 26-year-old lawyer, who spent the day observing the Kifaya demonstration instead. "Whether you voted 'yes' or 'no,' the outcome would be the same. The future in Egypt is bad." When asked to elaborate, Fawzi, nervously eyeing policemen who started to show an interest in the interview, said, "Sorry, I'm afraid to say anything more." So long...
...salaryman has followed the Seibu Lions since he was 8, back when his family lived near the team's stadium in Tokorozawa, a sleepy suburb 40 minutes west of Tokyo by train. Clad in a powder blue Lions jacket, with a Lions towel wrapped around his neck, Koike spends the entire game bobbing like a prizefighter in Seibu's official cheering section, where well-drilled fans in blue and white drum and sing personalized anthems every time a Lion comes to bat.

I'm not an old fashioned guy, but the subtext is that over time it's possible that we may get so clad in electronics and isolation and distance and desensitization that we will not only lose our innocence, but we won't even think we need to be innocent. And that will be a bad time. This movie is intended as family entertainment that also has some depth and substance...
...Literally smothered with ice, they take bling to another level. We see the shades a lot, because the choice of visuals is either that or cleavage. While it’s not the most groundbreaking premise for a music video, recent history has shown that the combination of scantily-clad women and R. Kelly leads to chart success (and occasionally court dates). Suffice it to say that eye candy is in plentiful supply. Yet the visuals tire quickly, with amusing cameos from T.I. and T-Pain providing the only counterpoints to an endless succession of quick cuts featuring R. Kelly...
