...film. How did you decide who sings what? Joseph [Gordon-Levitt] and Zooey [Deschanel] had a short list of what they thought their characters would sing.

The Iranian leadership rejects what it calls double standards on violence: calling for peaceful solutions but waging war in Iraq. Iran's government (but not all its people) rejects cultural influences from...
...Russia This Is Just A Test Russia has deployed 8,500 troops, 200 tanks and a number of artillery units to the Caucasus region near the Georgian border for a weeklong session of war games expected to be the biggest since its clash with Georgia last year. Russia admits that the exercises--which are scheduled to end on July 6, the day President Obama arrives for his first official visit to Moscow--are "quite major" but says they're simply for practice. Tbilisi is worried they presage another attack similar to last summer's skirmish over the breakaway region...
