...direct reference to one of Travolta's iconic bits from that film, the speech about a "Royale with cheese." Travolta delivers his 2010 version of his 1994 lines with the good humor you'd expect from an essentially likeable actor, but its very presence signifies something wistful and sad. Travolta is dolled up in his cool suit, waiting to be touched by coolness again. "Tell me that wasn't some impressive [expletive deleted]," Charlie says at one point. Would that it were...

Let's hope justice will prevail," Anwar said as he entered the packed courtroom on Tuesday morning with his wife Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and key political allies, including the venerated Muslim cleric Nik Aziz Nik Mat. In January, Anwar took his case to the people, holding rallies around the country where he claimed that the new sodomy charges had been trumped up to stop him from running for Prime Minister in the upcoming general election, an accusation the government denies.
