...rignon is set to flow as international revelers from Robert De Niro and Jean Paul Gaultier to Bollywood star Bipasha Basu gather to celebrate the grand opening of the Atlantis, a $1.5 billion, 1,500-room hotel resort that is over-the-top even by Dubai's standards. A branch of Kerzner's landmark resort in the Bahamas, the Atlantis features opulent rooms from $450 to $35,000 a night; restaurants by star chefs Nobu Matsuhisa, Giorgio Locatelli, Santi Santamaria and Michel Rostang; a giant aquarium containing 65,000 marine animals; and the Middle East's biggest theme park with...
JCVD His career and life on the skids, movie stud Jean-Claude Van Damme comes home to Brussels and gets tangled in a bank-heist drama. Director Mabrouk El Mechri weaves real and reel life into a dark meta-comedy. As for the star, he deserves not a black belt but an Oscar...
...retorted that the E.U. had given Sarkozy, who will be attending not just as President of France but also as the current holder of the E.U.'s rotating presidency, a "vague mandate" for Washington that reflected "the divergent opinions on the way things should be handled."

Carpentier announced the final step of that collaboration last month, along with the prosthetic heart: the launch of Carmat, a new $9.2 million firm that will build and eventually market the heart. Carmat...
...looks like graft-convicted Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska will somehow retain his seat long enough to get expelled, and his ethically and temperamentally challenged porkmate, Don Young, was re-elected as well; Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota survived her McCarthyite rant on Hardball, and Ohio's similarly obnoxious Jean Schmidt once again avoided a well-deserved early retirement. Republicans even ousted four first-term Democrats before they could get entrenched in deep-red districts - not only the clearly doomed Casanova Tim Mahoney of Florida, but Nancy Boyda of Kansas, Dan Cazayoux of Louisiana and Nick Lampson of Texas...
