They may both belong to France's conservative party, but President Nicolas Sarkozy and former Prime Minister Dominique Galouzeau de Villepin could not be more different. Tall, elegant, and ostentatiously erudite, Villepin was a career diplomat who gained the Matignon without ever having run for office. Short, petulant and sparking with excessive energy, Sarkozy marched to the Elysée Palace by winning an election, using old-fashioned political grunt work and his Cabinet posts to establish a reputation for delivering results. Along the way, the two men's conflicting styles and rival aspirations turned them into bitter enemies...
When the gunfire subsided at the October meeting, chili and cold beer and whiskey came out and someone offered the guests a tall can of marijuana cookies. For entertainment, Michael twanged his Jew's harp, the instrument disappearing in his foot-long beard, as a young couple strummed a song called "F--- You."

The action hero goddess is virtually unrecognizable, but there’s something strangely appealing about how dysfunctional the 6-foot-tall Thurman looks running around in her tattered aprons and dorky Birkenstocks. Motherhood for Eliza is ultimately about accepting limitations on her time and energy, and learning slowly that children are what motivate her to live a passionate life. Thurman fully embraces the many facets of her character, taking on her struggles with wit, strength...
...charge them with three felonies for their brash fame-seeking. If upheld, such charges could result in as many as six years in prison and $500,000 in fines. But the biggest culprit was the media, which forgot that its primary responsibility is not to tell unverified tall tales, but to report the facts...
