rted that a note written on hot pink paper was signed by the drug gang Mano con Ojos, or Hand with Eyes. Mexican police had said the gang was weakened by the arrest of its leader, Oscar Osvaldo Garcia, in August. The victims, a man and a woman in their 30s, had not been identified, prosecutors said. They said the SUV with license plates from neighbouring Mexico state had been stolen. The Centro Santa Fe mall where the charred car was found is one of the country's largest and most glamorous, housing high-end retailers like Coach, Prada, Hugo Boss, Saks Fifth Avenue and Mexican department store Palacio de Hierro. The dump scene was cleaned up so quickly that shoppers weren't even aware anything had happened. The car was left only hours before Mexico City Mayor Marcelo Ebrard guided a tour of a bridge construction site 300 yards (meters) away. Ebrard spokesman Diego Gutierrez said there was nothing to indicate the bodies were a message to the mayor. Mexico's sprawling capital has been something of a haven from the brutal cartel violence that has claimed thousands of lives along the U.S. border and in outlying states. But gangs have been fighting over an increasingly lucrative local drug market for more than a year, mainly in the capital's working class outer neighbourhoods and suburbs. The Santa Fe district has been spared much of that violence and managed to maintain its reputation as a manicured bubble built atop a former landfill on the western edge of Mexico City. The financial district houses the Mexican headquarters of major corporations, Hewlett Packard and IBM among them, and Iberoamerican University, one of Mexico's top private schools. Modern, heavily guarded high-rises where wealthy Mexicans and foreigners live dot the hilly landscape. But as the fight among splintering drug cartels intensifies, brazen attackers have reached even into the country's most guarded districts. "If they don't put an end to this, it could become more frightening here," said Christian Falbi, a 24-year-old college student who lives in an apartment building within walking distance of the mall.
The future Queen of Sweden, Princess Victoria, suffers from extreme chipmunk face and her personal trainer social climbing husband is plain ol' butt ugly.
I nominate Good Christian Bitches, this would allow the use of the full title and the blond pastor could have a full nude scene. Also, The Finder...you just know the finder really has a filthy mouth, let him express himself. The season ender had him in cuffs on the floor...we have to find out what happened. Come on HBO. Pan Am, the 60 were swinging. Get those pilots to swing their schwanks.

Joan Rivers on Camilla 'Charles & Camilla are so right together. They are so terrific together and they complement each other. This should have happened 35 years ago. Sometimes you're just destined for somebody. It's like marrying your old high school sweetheart. I William & Harry ike her very much. I've seen them in private situations. And it's been a real extended family. I think they are very happy. 'Camilla is not a floozy. This is not a 28-year-old guy with a girl with big breasts who thinks she's Pamela Anderson. This is a wonderful, settled, middle-aged couple. And how nice to be allowed after 35 years -- for God's sakes -- murderers get out in 17. To be allowed after 35 years to get married and get on with being the best person that you love, to be with them. I think it's wonderful.' On Diana 'I'm so tired of hearing about how Camilla was such a terrible thing in that marriage. You know, Diana also had lovers all through, which you've now discovered and read about. So, let's not make her a saint and let's not make Camilla the sinner. I find this really very distasteful. 'You must remember that Prince Charles has sat down and told us his half of it. So, I think you're making a terrible judgment call. We don't know why things were done, we don't know what was going on within that marriage. And it was a very unhappy time for Charles as well as Diana.' 'She was not a saint. She died in a terrible death with her lover coming from the Ritz Hotel going to his apartment. So, with all due respect to Princes Diana, let's not make her a saint. Let's move on. It's 9 years later. Let's just be happy that 2 people found each other and be together. How nice that is.' 'I met Princess Di and she was a charming woman and the whole thing. But she was also -- everyone forgets, as I said on your show once before, she was sleeping around. We all know this. There were many affairs when she was married to him. This was not a girl sitting there. This was a girl going, tsk, tsk, call me later. I think leave her alone already. It's enough. I think they were so vilified and it wasn't right. This is like his old high school sweetheart that he's finally married. And I think it's over and people see, the children love her, the queen was smiling, the queen was funny. Enough. Enough. It's 20-odd years. We've forgiven O.J....'
Why did she not learn from "Coco?"
And it seems some of us have! Which Travolta would you do the homosex with? The current version is rather bloated, getting old, and worst of all his confused head is full of cult programming. The man was a sex symbol at points in the past, though. So let us review (see poll). Well?

I can always tell when someone isn''t American trying their hardest to do an authentic American accent.\ \ There are a few exceptions though: Hugh Laurie, Tracey Ullman, Nicole Kidman, and Toni Collette. That''s about it.\ \ When it''s the other way around, many American actors and actresses can do English accents effortlessly.\ \ Why is it so hard for non-Yanks to master it?
Thousands of Greeks protest over the 'asphyxiating pressure' from foreign creditors ATHENS 08 FEBRUARY 2012 That's enough, we can't take it anymore." That was the popular chant coming from protesters in Athens yesterday during the latest 24-hour general strike against the country's austerity measures. Teachers and doctors joined bank employees to demonstrate against a new round of expected cuts as the cash-strapped country continued to negotiate new reductions in spending to help keep the economy afloat. Several thousand demonstrators from the public and private-sector unions braved the heavy rainfall, gathering outside Parliament to voice their opposition at the latest proposed measures to secure a €130bn (£108bn) bailout package. Minor clashes broke out when protesters tried to remove a cordon near the parliament building. Police sprayed tear gas and at times clashed with strikers, whose anger intensified overnight when a further 15,000 job cuts were announced. Since the onset of the crisis, the austerity drive has sent unemployment to a record high of 18.2 per cent and the country's finances into a spiral of recession. Despite the deepening pain, crowds at protests have increasingly dwindled. "People are scared and haven't really realised what's happening yet," George Pantsios, an electrician for the country's public power corporation, said. He has only been receiving half of his €850 monthly wage since August. "But once we all lose our jobs and can't feed our kids, that's when it'll go boom and we'll turn into Tahrir Square." Prime Minister Lucas Papademos was scheduled to wrap up a new reforms package with party leaders that back his unity government last night, which will pave the way for more bailout money. The conservative daily Kathimerini newspaper's headline said: "Merkel and Sarkozy's asphyxiating pressure." It was a reference to lenders' demands to axe another 15,000 civil servants by the end of the year and cut the minimum wage by 20 per cent. The European Union and the International Monetary Fund said the measures are needed to restore Greece's competitiveness and reduce its mounting €300bn debt. Many in the crowds yesterday said the talks were being used as an excuse to squeeze extra revenue from the sick man of Europe and they fear additional cuts will only stifle any hopes of growth. "We're already bankrupt. This new agreement will simply be our tombstone and the meeting will be the final curtain of this play," said Corinna Panopoulos, a state psychologist who demonstrated outside the parliament building. Ms Panopoulos, who is single and has two children, said she had seen her salary drop by a third and has moved in with her mother to make ends meet. Her sister, Christina, who works as a supply teacher, will lose her state job in June. Another woman had been forced to close her business: "I should leave and go abroad for work, but I want to stay and fight because my country needs me now." The patience of Greece's creditors is wearing thin as the financial woes threaten to spill into other countr
