    "Robin hood", a universal pictures and imagine entertainment movie partly financed by relativity media, managed a solid $111.1 million in global ticket sales over it's first three days. The picture cost over $200 million, including start up expenses and not accounting for tax credits, universal had hoped "Robin hood" would mark it's turning point. The studio, recently purchased by comcast, has had a dismal streak at the box office, with a line of duds, including "Repo man", "The wolfman" and "Greenzone", that resulted in a management overhaul. "Robin hood" will undoubtly renew a debate in Hollywood about the ability of stars to draw audiences. The picture stars Russell crowe, who powered "Gladiator" to $467.6 million in global ticket sales in 2000 but has since waned as a box-office draw, at least in the united states. The $30 million romantic comedy "letters to juliet" (summit entertainment) was a weak third for the weekend with about $13.8 million.
    This picture, starring Amanda seyfried and Vanessa Redgrave, was meant as counterprogramming for female audience but fell short of the studio's hopes. Queen latifah's comedy "Just wright" (Fox searchlight) was fourth with about $8.5 million. The dreamworks animation movie "How to train your dragon" which has shown staying power, was fifth with about $5.1 million for a new domestic total of $207.8 million.

Becks to coach England at World Cup


    FABIO CAPELLO wants David Beckham to join him as an England COACH at the World Cup.
    Becks was robbed of his place in the squad by a ruptured Achilles tendon.
    But Capello reckons he would be ideal helping out behind the scenes.
    beckham said: "I've spoken to the manager and Franco Baldini and they have made it well aware that I have a role to play with the players and the team.
    "We have not discussed specifics but I'm honoured that a manager of Fabio's status feels I can be important.
    "I am hoping to travel with the team but obviously we'll have to see how my therapy goes."
    The ex-Manchester United and Real Madrid star will be on the training ground, along with Stuart Pearce and the rest of the England coaches, plus Capello himself.
    It will be the LA Galaxy star's first senior coaching role, though he ran a series of academies across the globe. Beckham, 35, will not be going to the squad's pre-World Cup training camp in Austria, as he continues the rehabilitation from his injury.
    Instead, he will fly out with the 23-player party to South Africa on June 2.
    The England 2018 bid team want to use the former skipper to help promote their campaign to host the World Cup in eight years' time.
    Becks, though, will be released by Capello for only one or two events and the coaching job will be his main focus.
    He is in Zurich today to hand over officially the 2018 bid book.
    WAYNE ROONEY collected the Football Writers Association Footballer of the Year award last night.
    And he is tipping England glory in South Africa.
    He said: "Hopefully, we can stay injury-free. If we can, and all be at our best, we definitely have the players to do well."

The Sea Devil




    Your Ad Here



    Gesner reproduced this picture of a Sea Devil (also called Triton marinus, Dæmon marinus, Satyrus marinus or Pan marinus) because the artist sending him the picture "had seen the monster alive." Gesner noted that one such creature had been captured in Norway and another in Rome. The Roman Sea Devil, he pointed out, didn't have horns. Gesner was such a prolific natural historian thanks largely to a wide network of associates. Unfortunately, many of them were superstitious mariners. This improbable creature is probably based on the monk seal. Once common in the Mediterranean, the species was decimated by human hunting. Fishermen considered the seals a smelly nuisance. So, apparently, did farmers. As Aristotle had a millennium earlier, both Gesner and fellow naturalist Ulisse Aldrovandi passed along accounts of seals raiding orchards

    The Mediterranean monk seal is Europe’s most endangered marine mammal – but why? What has made it so?

    Taken at face value, the evidence has always appeared to implicate the grinding ecological pressures that ‘algae-bloomed’ during the 20th century – overfishing and destructive fishing methods, rampant coastal development, the locust swarms of summer tourists and boaters, the toxic ooze of industrial and agricultural pollution.
    A reading of more distant history, however, tells a somewhat different story, and arguably delivers a lesson as pertinent today as it was two millennia ago, when ancient Rome first witnessed the spectre of overfishing, erosion, urban overcrowding, forest denudation and the disappearance of species.

    In ancient minds



    Although it may be thought of as an obscure species today, its very survival hanging by a thread, the Mediterranean monk seal has appeared in numerous writings inked onto papyrus, parchment or paper during the last 3000 years.
    While most Europeans today are scarcely even aware of its existence, the seal formerly touched the lives of many, including emperors, poets, philosophers, sorcerers, physicians, explorers and, of course, fishermen.
    Homer, Aristotle, Hippocrates, Plutarch, Galen, Avicenna and Gesner are among some of the ancient and Renaissance world luminaries who recorded observations about the Mediterranean seal and its relationship to human culture, folklore, science and economy.

    Monk seal colonies were once found throughout the Mediterranean, the Marmara and Black Seas. The species also frequented the Atlantic coast of Africa, as far south as Mauritania, Senegal and the Gambia, as well as the Atlantic islands of Cape Verde, the Canary Islands, Madeira and the Azores. It is likely that across its original range, the Mediterranean monk seal once numbered in the tens of thousands.
    Today, several thousand years later, fewer than 600 individuals are thought to survive, mainly in two disconnected populations, one along the mainland coasts and islands of Greece and Turkey in the eastern Mediterranean, and the other in the Atlantic, along the cliff-bound coasts of the disputed Western Sahara.
    France, Spain, Italy, Egypt, Israel and Lebanon are among some of the nations that saw the disappearance of the species during the 20th century. More recently, the monk seal is also thought to have become extinct in the Black Sea. Despite sporadic sightings – possibly of stragglers from other regions – Monachus monachus is also effectively extinct along the Adriatic coasts and islands of Croatia, and the Sea of Marmara. Similarly, only a handful of individuals now reportedly survives along the Mediterranean coasts of Tunisia, Algeria, Libya and Morocco.

    Myths and legends

    In Greek mythology, monk seals were placed under the protection of Poseidon and Apollo because they showed a great love for sea and sun  
    animistic imaginations transformed the creatures into nymphs and mermaids.
    Several Greek and Roman texts also link the animals to the myth of the Sirens and the sweet, irresistible song that could reputedly lure sailors to their doom. Recently discovering some grains of truth to the ancient legend, field researchers have noted the high-pitched, siren-like cry that mother seals make in warning their pups of danger, the sound echoing out from desolate, cliff-bound coasts. [see The Song of the Sirens, this issue]
    One of the first coins, minted around 500 B.C. by the powerful city state of Phocaea – itself named after the species – depicted the head of a monk seal.
    In recent excavations on the island of Rhodes, archaeologists discovered the skeleton of a monk seal ceremonially buried next to a dog and several humans; they theorise that the seal may have become a pet who received honoured burial rites after its death.
    Magic and superstition


    Like many other wild species, the seal was also prized for its uses in magic and superstition – even if it was difficult, under the influence of the Magian sorcerer-healers, to tell magic from medical practice.
    Because of its infamously sleepy habits, the right flipper of a seal, placed under the pillow, was thought to cure insomnia. The whiskers, distilled into a potion, could win friends and lovers or drive off enemies.
    Since the seal was never known to be struck by lightning, Roman tents were covered with seal hides.
    Such superstitions were not only confined to poor fisher folk, farmers, or even the legions. The Roman biographer and historian, Suetonius, tells us that thunder and lightning also struck terror into the most powerful figure of the Empire, Caesar Augustus, “against which he always carried a piece of seal-skin as an amulet.”
    Plutarch adds that ship-owners had their mastheads wrapped in seal pelts, in the belief that they would offer protection against lightning strikes. When allied with the apotropaic powers of coral, the skins were also reputed to guard against supernatural forces, protecting vessels against perilous winds, waves and storms.
    Such superstitions also made their way into other walks of life.
    According to a fourth century A.D. treatise on agricultural pursuits, a seal pelt dragged around a field and then hung at the entrance or yard would save a farmer’s crops from hail storms

Dominic Monaghan: 'IRA bomb did Manchester a favour'


    Dominic Monaghan, the actor, has been lambasted for claiming that the IRA did Manchester a “favour” by bombing the city in 1996.

    The 33-year-old star of Lord of the Rings and Lost said the blast, which left more than 200 people injured, had helped the city because it led to redevelopment.

    The bomb – one of the largest ever detonated in Britain during peacetime – caused more than £700 million damage, leaving a third of the city centre’s retail space devastated.
    Repairing the damage and redeveloping the area cost more than £1.2 billion.
    In an interview with a Los Angeles radio station, Monaghan, who was raised in Stockport, Manchester, said: “When I was growing up there it was much rougher and then the IRA did one of the greatest favours they have ever done for us – they planted a bomb in the town centre and because of the large Irish contingent living in Manchester, they alerted police and everyone left.
    “Then they blew it up and the government gave us a billion pounds to rebuild it. So the town centre is really cleaned up.”
    However, his comments, to the Petros & Money show, have been condemned by those who witnessed the carnage on June 15, 1996.
    Pat Karney, a Manchester city centre councillor, accused Monaghan of “perpetuating a myth”.
    He said: “That the bomb did us a favour is one of the big Manchester myths of modern times.
    “I remember what the lady who had 30 pieces of glass in her face looked like. I was one of the hundreds who ran screaming from the city.
    “When I think about the bomb I don’t think about it as a favour.”
    Tony Lloyd, MP for Manchester Central, said: “It’s a long-standing joke that it did us a favour. But bombs in public places are not a laughing matter.
    “Not every IRA bomb that came with a warning went off on time. The rebuilding of Manchester has been great but it is not because of the bomb. The city was already moving on that when it happened.”
    Photos of Monaghan wearing a Manchester United football shirt were listed as the top item on the radio show's website on Tuesday.
    German-born Monaghan is not the first to be criticised for the making the observation. In 2007 Bradford MP Terry Rooney provoked outrage when he described the bomb as “the best thing to ever happen” to Manchester.
    The IRA claimed responsibility for the bomb, which left 212 people hurt.

    Michael Jackson - Off The Wall .mp3


    Found at bee mp3 search engine

    Even if he had not released quality music for quite some time and functioned mainly as an occasional tabloid figure in the years leading up to his shocking 2009 death, Michael Jackson was and will always be one of the biggest superstars of music or any other mode of entertainment. He ruled parts of four decades in one form or another, so he certainly deserves due tribute as a hitmaking, calculating talent blessed with an amazing amount of artistic versatility

Brown Resigns: 'Thank You And Goodbye


    Speaking outside No 10, he said: "I wish the next prime minister well as he makes the important choices for the future."

    Mr Brown added: "Above all it was a privilege to serve. And yes, I loved the job."

    In his final words to the public as prime minister, he said: "As I leave the second most important job I could ever hold, I cherish even more the first – as a husband and a father. Thank you and goodbye."

    Before visiting the Queen at Buckingham Palace, Mr Brown revealed he was to advise that she should appoint Conservative leader David Cameron as Britain's new leader.
    The revelations followed senior Liberal Democrat Vince Cable telling Sky a deal on forming a coalition government between his party and the Conservatives is "very, very close to being done".

    The Tories have agreed a three-year deal with the Lib Dems, which would allow them three budgets to get the economy back on track, Sky sources said.

.Is Michael Jackson still alive? Rumour sweeps net

    A website which claims Michael Jackson is still alive and posing as a famous American burns victim is attracting around one million hits per day
    Rumours on Facebook and YouTube suggest the singer is masquerading as his 33-year-old friend Dave
      Dave, who was scalded as a child.



    Dave appeared on the American talkshow Larry King Live after Michael's death and clips of the interview have been posted online for analysis by fans.


    some believe Dave's high-pitched voice bears a striking resemblance to Michael's, while others have commented that his eyes have changed colour from blue to brown - just like the late King of Pop's.
    A spokesman for Dave has attempted to quash the rumours by insisting his client is, in fact, busy studying to be a lawyer.
    Michael Jackson, who suffered a cardiac arrest on June 26 last year, was laid to rest at a cemetary in Hollywood.

Strange Crime: Beyond Reasonable Doubt

    At the end of a three-week trial a jury decided - on the basis of purely circumstantial evidence - that Derek Christian should serve a life sentence for a crime of which he is innocent. It decided - beyond reasonable doubt - in a mere two hours and ten minutes.
    Derek is now serving a mandatory life sentence at HMP Frankland. Convicted of murder not only on the strength of circumstantial evidence, but also in the face of conflicting - and in part very doubtful - prosecution evidence.
    Derek Christian has always protested his innocence. He will continue to do so. This decision will, in all probability, cost him any hope of ever being granted parole. Of that there can be very little doubt.
    We also firmly believe that Derek is innocent. We wish to see that justice is done. Rather than being seen to be done. In this regard, we can only echo the words of the Lord Chief Justice - "This is such a strange and obscure story that it is difficult to recommend any punitive term with complete confidence."

    His leave to appeal having been refused, the only way forward for Derek is through the Criminal Cases Review Commission.

    Reversing a miscarriage of justice is a difficult and lengthy process. One which can take decades rather than years, as is demonstrated by the cases of Andrew Evans, Stefan Kiszko and James Hanratty, to name but three of countless others.

    If, after reading the following articles and viewing the evidence, you are left with any reasonable doubt as to Derek's conviction, he would greatly appreciate your support.

Unraveling the case of confessed terrorist Bryant Vinas




    Your Ad Here



    Long Island, New York (CNN) -- It's 4:30 in the morning, with a foot and a half of snow frozen
    to the ground outside.


    On any other day I would reset my alarm and go back to sleep.

    But today is the culmination of more than 6 months of investigative reporting on three continents. We were closing in on a key piece of the puzzle to explain what made an all-American kid from New York join al Qaeda.

    If our documentary was going to shed light on a dangerous and growing threat to the United States, we had to make this day count.

    Nothing was going to keep me in bed.

    I'd flown into New York from London the day before, calculating this one interview would reveal what made a mild-mannered young man from Long Island named Bryant Neal Vinas turn to radical Islamic terrorism.

    Analysis: Exploring middle-class jihadists

    His story reflects a frightening new trend: home-grown terrorism. Young Americans converting to radical Islam, trying to kill their countrymen.
    For once jet lag was on my side. The body clocks of my colleagues -- CNN producer Ken Shiffman and CNN terrorism analyst Paul Cruickshank -- were on a different schedule, but they were as keen as me to close the deal.

    We rolled out of the hotel forecourt onto the deserted highway. The GPS was directing us down Route 112.

    Our job this freezing February morning: talk to the man who'd been dodging us for months.
    t wasn't going to be easy.

    For months, his family had told us he was out of the country; our counterterrorism sources were saying the opposite.
    We parked close to his house in an anonymous New York suburb -- and waited for a chance to talk to him. Sitting hour after hour, it is cramped and cold. Slowly the sun inches above the horizon, and the uppermost branches of the slender trees surrounding the house are soaked in its early golden glow.


    The rays were still hours from reaching us but it was a warming sight nonetheless. An omen, perhaps, that our wait would be worthwhile.
    Our journey had begun months earlier when Bryant Neal Vinas' arrest was first made public. He'd been in detention almost a year when the news broke, but we quickly got the inside track. A lawyer we'd interviewed in Belgium handed us a document.
    In it, Vinas' own account of his time with al Qaeda. His story was intersecting with others we reported. Paul saw it first and Ken brought the team together.
    We realized that for the first time we had an opportunity to tell one man's story in fine detail, to paint a detailed portrait that would go far beyond superficial headlines and reveal through one man's story why homegrown radicalization is growing.
    There is no shortage of armchair experts, but we wanted the best: people directly involved in Bryant's case. People who know far more than they can say.

    Our job would be to squeeze every last detail out of them without jeopardizing national security.
    The 'Forest Gump' of jihad
    iting in a sumptuous Washington, D.C., office for Janet Napolitano was nerve-wracking.

    You get a tight time a slot and that's all you get: a tiny window to ask the right questions.
    There is no going back if you forget to ask some important detail. The Homeland Security secretary told me Bryant was the perfect case study of this rising phenomenon.
    It's what I was to hear at the FBI just around the corner a few weeks later and at the NYPD's counterterrorism headquarters. No, not the place that's well-known and quite public -- another one hidden away where you'd least expect.
    From all the officials we talked to we heard shades of the same story: Bryant was an unremarkable kid who defied logic and upbringing to threaten his nation.
    His path to radicalism we were told made him a poster child for the process, "the Forest Gump of Jihad," as one official put it.
    But if the officials had been hard to persuade to talk on camera, his friends and family were tougher. The guy who first got him into Islam met with us several times, talked on several occasions on the phone but just flat out refused to go on camera without payment.
    We lost sleep over that. He was eloquent and gave a good account of Vinas' inner struggles, but he figured if he showed himself on TV he'd get trouble at work and therefore needed compensation upfront.
    He would have been good. In the end, there were other ways to tell his part of Vinas' tale. Paying for such a critical part of the story was the wrong move, whatever his reasoning.
    Unlocking the past
    As we sat waiting on that icy morning, we realized that if this didn't work out we'd need to come up with other options -- and fast.
    Time to get our story on air was running out.
    The cold reality was this hold-out on Vinas' past was flat out avoiding us, and we still didn't know why.
    Counterterrorism officials told us he was the man who introduced Vinas to the radical Islamists who would re-shape his worldview, and help convince him America was at war with Islam.
    And he may even have known of Vinas' plot to go to Afghanistan to kill American troops. Imagine the insights he has.
    Suddenly as we sit there I see his father come to the street. We've met before so I ask him if I can talk to his son. He tells me he is not there. We drive around the corner and wait.
    And then it happens: Our patience is rewarded, our intelligence sources are right. Father and son leave the house in the car together.
    They see us and speed off down the snowy back roads. We come back later: this time his father levels with me, tells me he was lying to protect his son because his son refuses to meet me.
    I'm frustrated, to put it mildly, but at the same time I feel some sympathy. What I hear is a father telling me he can't control his son. He can't tell him he must talk to me, can't talk him out of his radical and angry views.
    Right there, outside that house I feel a chill, but it's not the cold. It's the realization that if want to tell Vinas' full story we will have to find another source.
    On that same street corner, our fortunes change. I make a phone call to Pakistan and reach a man in the teeming city of Lahore; a man the FBI is apparently looking for.
    According to our intelligence sources, this man had once been friends with both Vinas and the young radical who was avoiding us.
    A stroke of luck had landed his phone number. It takes patience and persistence, but eventually he agrees to an on-camera interview.
    We are finally getting the inside story of Vinas' radicalization, of his one-man jihadist mission, his travel to Pakistan and up into the border area with Afghanistan.
    And most importantly: why he'd exchanged the comfort and security of life in America for the status of an outlaw and the possibility of a violent death.
    Just a few months later, Pakistani-American Faisal Shahzad would be named as the suspect in a plot to detonate a fiery car bomb in Times Square, apparently in the name of Islam.
    The parallels between Shahzad and Bryant Neal Vinas are stunning: a middle-class upbringing, capable intellect and the apparent collapse of a stable family life and a search for something new.
    As I pursue the Shahzad story in Karachi today, I feel like I am walking down a familiar path.
    It is a long way from that cold, dark February morning in New York -- but I feel the same sense of fascination as I dig to find out more about Faisal Shahzad and about the surge in conspiracies that threaten the American homeland.
    I have a feeling that investigating Bryant Neal Vinas has already provided at least part of the answer.

    Arabic music, while independent and very alive, has a long history of interaction with many other regional musical styles and genres. It is an amalgam of the music of the Arabs in the Arabian Peninsula and the music of all the peoples that make up the Arab World today. It also influenced and has been influenced by Egyptian, Cypriot, Greek, Persian, Kurdish, Assyrian, Turkish, Indian, African (i.e. North African, Berber and Swahili) and European music (i.e. Flamenco). As was the case in other artistic and scientific fields, Arabs translated and developed Greek texts and works of music and mastered the musical theory of the Greeks(i.e. Systema ametabolon, enharmonium, chromatikon, diatonon)

A NightMare on elm street



    While at the Springwood Diner with his girlfriend, Kris Fowles (Katie Cassidy), Dean Russell (Kellan Lutz)
     falls asleep at the table and meets a man covered in burn scars, wearing a red and green sweater and a clawed glove on his hand. The burned man cuts Dean's throat in the dream, but in reality it appears that Dean is cutting his own throat as friend and waitress Nancy Holbrook (Rooney Mara) looks on with Kris. At Dean's funeral, Kris sees a photograph of her and Dean as children, but cannot recall ever knowing Dean before high school. Kris begins to dream about the burned man herself and refuses to go to sleep for fear that she will die in her dreams. Jesse Braun (Thomas Dekker), Kris's ex-boyfriend, shows up at her house to keep her company while she sleeps, but Kris meets the burned man in her dreams and is murdered. Covered in blood, Jesse runs to Nancy's house to try to explain what happened and he learns that Nancy has been having dreams about the same man; that man's name is Freddy (Jackie Earle Haley).




    Jesse is apprehended by the police under suspicion of murdering Kris, and is killed by Freddy when he falls asleep in his jail cell. With her friends dying, Nancy begins to question what everyone's connection is to each other, given that none of them can remember each other before their teenage years. Eventually, Nancy and her friend Quentin Smith (Kyle Gallner) discover that all of them, including more children, attended the same preschool together. Nancy's mother Gwen (Connie Britton) reluctantly tells Nancy and Quentin that there was a gardener at the preschool, Fred Krueger, who hurt Nancy and the rest of the kids. Gwen explains that Nancy was his favorite, and came home one day telling her mom about Freddy's "magic cave" and the things that happened down there. Gwen claims Krueger skipped town before he was arrested. Nancy does not believe her and attempts to track down the remaining kids from the school. Nancy eventually discovers that all of the other kids have been killed, most of them in their sleep. Meanwhile, Quentin tries to accept that everything is nothing more than repressed memories, but he falls asleep during swim practice and witnesses what really happened to Krueger. Quentin sees everyone's parents hunt down Krueger, and then burn him alive. Quentin and Nancy confront Quentin's father, Alan Smith (Clancy Brown), about the reality they murdered Krueger with no actual evidence that he had committed any crime. Nancy and Quentin, who both begin sporadically dreaming while they are awake as a result of insomnia, decide to go to the preschool and learn what they can about Krueger.



    On the way, Nancy falls asleep and is attacked by Freddy, but when Quentin wakes her up they discover she has pulled a piece of Freddy's sweater out of the dreamworld and into reality. Quentin takes Nancy to the hospital for cuts on her arm; there, he steals some adrenaline and a syringe to help them stay awake. Nancy and Quentin leave the hospital and eventually make it to the preschool. Quentin uncovers Krueger's "magic cave" and the evidence that proves Krueger was physically and sexually abusing all of the children. Nancy decides the only way to end this is to pull Krueger out of their dreams and kill him in reality. Quentin tries to stay awake long enough to pull Nancy out of her dream when she has Freddy, but he falls asleep and is attacked. Krueger then goes after Nancy, and explains that he intentionally left her for last so she would stay awake long enough that when she finally fell asleep, she would no longer be able to wake back up. While Nancy struggles with Freddy, Quentin wakes and uses the adrenaline to bring Nancy up and pull Freddy into reality. With Krueger distracted by Quentin, Nancy uses a broken paper cutter blade to cut Freddy's gloved hand off, and then slice his throat. Afterward, Nancy torches the secret room, with Krueger's body left inside, while she and Quentin leave. Nancy and her mother return home from the hospital, with Nancy being told she should get some sleep. Krueger suddenly appears in a mirror's reflection and kills Nancy's mother before pulling her body through the mirror while Nancy screams.
