Seeing Judd work in a very commercial, but very loyal and respectful way with people, giving his actors tremendous freedom with improvisation, was great. And I was looking at their model of commercial, successful comedies and mine of dramatic films that don't make any money and thought there might be a cool fit there. I am at a point professionally where I need a little bit of financial credibility. And it worked out conveniently that my interest was to make a commercial comedy. The hope is that people see that they can invest in me and make some money...
...South Africa. Zuma's supporters allege his rivals are using the organs of the state judicial system to fight a political battle against him, citing evidence that not all alleged offenders are pursued with equal vigor. Last year, for example, when South Africa's Commissioner of Police and loyal Mbeki supporter Jackie Selebi was facing prosecution over his links to an accused gang boss, Mbeki's administration suspended the prosecutor who had been trying to charge Selebi...
...backpedaled, calling a 16-month withdrawal plan supported by Iraq's Prime Minister a "pretty good" timetable. Bush's new tactics may complicate the calculations of Obama as well.

Zimbabwe already has two vice presidents, both high-ranking members...
Hundreds of Shi'ites loyal to al-Sadr gathered outdoors [on July 25, 2008] for Friday noon prayer and a heated sermon by an imam in al-Sadr's movement. He blasted the American occupiers and the security deal being negotiated between the U.S. and al-Maliki's government. Worshippers laughed when asked, rhetorically, who controls the neighborhood, which is home to some 3 million of Baghdad's poor. "This area is controlled by the Sadrist movement. The Iraqi army only watches over Friday noon prayer - no more and no less," says worshipper Ali Kate'a, 31, as soldiers with...
