Borat, the movie’s protagonist, hails from Kazakhstan, a nation which we are told has some of the cleanest prostitutes in central Asia. Cohen himself looks vaguely Muslim (Cohen is actually half-Israeli and half-Welsh) and his character Borat is incredibly out of sync with Western mores. Borat’s blend of misogyny, anti-Semitism, and general backwardness all carefully correspond with American stereotypes of Islam. Importantly, these are not always traits that Americans impute indiscriminately to all other cultures...
...Healy's Test career in 1999, Australians lost a record-breaking wicketkeeper who more than occasionally saved his side with his bat. His replacement, Adam Gilchrist, proved to be an improvement on greatness?an almost equally accomplished gloveman who became, if not his country's finest batsman, certainly its cleanest and most dashing hitter. Of all examples of Australian extravagance this past decade, none has been more demoralizing for opponents than the sight of Gilchrist marching to the crease...
...point to humans, Reich said. The interbreeding hypothesis might also explain why the X chromosome shared by humans and chimps is about 1.2 million years more recent than any other chromosome, Reich added. When humans and chimpanzees diverged into distinct evolutionary branches, the two species hardly had the cleanest of break-ups. So far, scientists have believed that “speciation” occurs when an isolation barrier such as a geographic impediment divides a population and mating stops, Reich said. However, that theory is not applicable to the drawn-out separation of humans and chimps discovered...
Melting ice caps didn't figure into the fightSunita Narain and Bhure Lal led to build the world's cleanest public-transport network. They had more pressing concerns. "New Delhi was choking to death," says Narain, 43, director of India's Center for Science and Environment. "Air pollution was taking one life per hour." Adds Lal, 63, then a senior government administrator: "The capital was one of the most polluted on earth. At the end of the day, your collar was black, and you had soot all over your face. Millions had bronchitis and asthma...
...Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA), Frederick A. Laskey, said yesterday. Combined sewage overflow (CSO) refers to the contamination that enters the river through pipes containing both storm water and sewage spillover. The move, slated for completion by 2013, could “perhaps make the Charles River the cleanest river in the country,” Laskey said. This current cleanup effort is the result of a 1985 lawsuit for violation of the Clean Water Act of 1972, according to Ria Convery, the communications director for the MWRA. The MWRA was specifically created to undertake the court-order cleanup effort...
