...also spending the week there. With Segel writing his own scenes, it’s no surprise that he would play the same kind of character that he’s used to: a somewhat clueless, well-intentioned goofball. Though funny at times, Peter doesn’t gain respect from the audience. He is forced to carry the first half of the movie but can’t quite do so with only weak jokes and puppy-dog looks in his arsenal.

...speech the Pope gave in 2006 in Regensburg, Germany, had been "extremely painful" to Muslims, but that "I would like to make sure that if he has any misunderstanding about Islam we need to sit and discuss." He also noted that "Catholics over generations have struggled for recognition and respect.

Those following the Papal/Muslim dialog may also want to tune in for Benedict's speech before the United Nations at 10:45 a.m. on Friday. One cardinal suggested that the Pope might...
