...childlike fear of Jews (a joke, of course, since Cohen and most of the film's primary perpetrators are Jewish). In his home town, the annual event is the Running of the Jew; and when he and his team travel across the U.S., they decide to drive (in an ice cream wagon) because his producer "insisted we not fly, in case the Jews repeated their attack of 9/11." While in the South, Borat and Bagatov stop in a bed and breakfast that happens to be run by a nice Jewish couple - which information sets the Kazakhs fleeing as of from...
...Immigration officials may have charged that Posada posed a real threat to the U.S., but Magistrate Norbert J. Garney ruled those findings insufficient to continue detention because of a 2001 Supreme Court ruling that ICE cannot detain people with immigration violations for more than six months unless the government deems the individual to be a danger or proves there are special circumstances. Garney, who works in the U.S. District Court in El Paso, where Posada now sits in detention, placed Posada's fate firmly in the hands of U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez. According to Garney, Posada can remain...
...Government officials, who had not received the ruling by Tuesday, deferred comment. "We'll study the decision when we receive it," says ICE spokeswoman Barbara Gonzalez. Until then, Posada will sit in a holding facility in El Paso, Texas, a man without a country that the U.S. apparently doesn't want to charge as a terrorist - but also doesn't want to set free...
...risky not to. Disregard the dark clouds coming over the Divide and you'll get slammed by bad weather. Don't look closely at the droppings in the driveway and you might not realize they belong to a nearby ferocious animal. Fail to notice the morning ice along the creek and you won't order your propane or woodsplitter in time before winter. And that slight movement up on the ridge that you catch in peripheral vision? Depending upon the season, it could either be a rock slide or an avalanche...
...studies are expensive. Brammer says a medium-sized study could cost between $94,000 and $188,000. Less-expensive options can also answer some marketing questions, however. For Unilever, Vienna's Walla recently used a startle-reflex method that measures muscle control of eye blinks to determine that eating ice cream makes people happier than eating yogurt or chocolate. Another drawback of scanners: lying in one is hardly a natural environment to watch TV or spot brands. But anticipated smaller versions that let subjects sit up under contraptions that resemble salon hair dryers should increase the comfort factor...
