...fame in the U.S., was due to be released in Ukraine next week. But the commission felt that the country, with its conservative Catholic west and Orthodox east, was just not ready for Brüno and the character's over-the-top sexual antics, including an explicit romp with his pint-size boyfriend and oral sex with a ghost...

...Tuesday in Britain's Independent newspaper, the opposition Conservatives - consistently double-digits ahead of Labour in recent opinion polls - would nonetheless fall six seats short of a majority in any general election with the genial Johnson as Labour's P.M. With Brown still at the helm, the Tories would romp home 74 seats to the good. More evidence of that nature - or defeat in either of the two tricky by-elections Labour faces in the coming months, following the resignation of a pair of its own MPs - could yet prompt dissenters to push for a new leader in the fall...

...while Portugal's ruling Socialists suffered a stunning collapse in support, by 18 points to 26.6%. And it was a similar story in Hungary: the ruling Socialist MSZP lost more than half its vote, tumbling 18% to just 17.4%, opening the way for the conservative Fidesz to romp home with a monstrous 56.4% of the vote.

But it was mainly at the expense of the liberals, greens and former communists...

...dusting off the 1974 television show Land of the Lost, director Brad Silberling's goal was not to craft a PG-rated romp through the educational terrain of Sid and Marty Krofft's original series, but to tweak and distort all the various elements that made the series a cult sensation in the first place. The movie, which hits theaters Friday, reimagines the space-time of this alternate universe with an eye toward the absurd. The story still centers on disgraced paleontologist Dr. Rick Marshall (Will Ferrell), but instead of his family he buddies up with scientist Holly Cantrell (Anna...

What's more, one of the pillars of Cutié's popularity is his relationship counseling. To any Catholic who's had to suffer through a lecture on marriage from a celibate kid just out of seminary, Cutié's romantic romp might just make him a more appealing priest - more human, perhaps, than Catholic clergy who deny communion to divorcées, gays and anyone else who dares violate the church's litany of non-negotiable rules. "He was doing this fairly out in the open," notes one Miami Catholic who knows Cutié well and has undergone marriage...
