Keith Olbermann: The Empire Strikes Back
2008-06-02 12:16:00 This on top of what Olbermann owes in California. Total: 100 grand. Olbermann WatchProfessional angry person Keith Olbermann favors tax-and-spend liberals, but he didn't pay his own taxes. OlbermannWatch.com reports that New York state has issued a tax warrant or judgment against the MSNBC host for $2,269.50 in back taxes owed by his personal corporation, Olbermann Broadcasting Empire Inc. Asked about the delinquency the other night by journalist Evan Gahr, the otherwise loquacious Olbermann uttered nary a word as he scurried into Trump Palace, where he bought condo apartment 40B last year, according to public records. "This was a bookkeeping disagreement between Keith's accountants and the state which was resolved months ago," an MSNBC spokesman told Page Six. Gahr was surprised to see Olbermann on foot. "Is the belt-tightening so severe at NBC that the peacock network can't afford a car to take Olbermann home?" he wondered. "If so, there's a bright side for Olbermann: Nobody c...

Empire strikes back as 'Star Wars' creator sues
2008-04-09 04:31:00 April 9, CNNLONDON, England (AP) -- It's a storm in a Stormtrooper's helmet. Lawyers for George Lucas' Lucasfilm Ltd. and a British prop designer faced off in London's High Court Tuesday over rights to the molded white Stormtrooper uniforms from the "Star Wars" films.Standing alongside the bewigged, black-robed lawyers in court was the object of their dispute -- a 6-foot (1.83 meter) tall, helmeted warrior of the evil Galactic Empire. Lucasfilm attorney Michael Bloch called the menacing figure "one of the most iconic images in modern culture."Lucasfilm claims violation of copyright and trademarks by prop designer Andrew Ainsworth, who sculpted the Stormtrooper helmets for the first "Star Wars" movie in 1977. London-based Ainsworth sells replicas of the helmets and armor, which he says are made from the original molds, on his Web site for up to £1,000 ($2,000; €1,300).Lucasfilm won a $20 million (€25 million) judgment against Ainsworth in a California court in 2006, and is s...

Now the US may be getting ready to drop its financial atom bomb on the much bigger target of Iran. The warning came last week in an advisory notice posted by the US Treasury’s ...

News: The Empire Strikes Back: Jaguar and Land Rover are now Indian.
2008-03-27 01:47:00 US car giant Ford has sold its luxury UK-based car brands Jaguar and Land Rover to the Indian company Tata for US$2.3bn (£1.15bn), about half the price Ford paid for it originally.Although Land Rover remains profitable, Ford has never managed to make money from its investment in Jaguar.In January, Tata launched the world's cheapest car, the Nano, priced at US$2,500 (£1,250). The starting price for Jaguar's latest sports car is more than US$64,000 (£32,000). (Full)I wonder if now is the right time to up the issue I had with The Ugly Duckling, my old Land Rover in Uganda I just could not get repaired? Or should I wait until Tata bought Mercedes and BMW?Picture courtesy Ben Stansall (theage.com.au)

The incentives of Europeanisation - subsidies from Brussels, unfettered mobility, and the adoption of the euro currency - are too great not to want. Brussels today rivals Washington with its swarms of lobbyists, including dozens of ...

Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
2007-11-14 12:56:00 Director: Irvin KershnerWriter: George LucasProducers: Gary Kurtz & George LucasMusic: John Williams Cinematography: Peter Suschitzky Release date: May 21, 1980 Genre: Sci-fi, Fantasy, Action, Adventure Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back is a 1980 space opera film was considered the best film in the original Star Wars trilogy. It has all the great qualities that the original Star Wars has: great effects (at the time of its release), appealing characters, and lots of spellbinding action. It also has eliminated some of the problems that plagued the first: the storyline is tighter, and goes much deeper into character development. The performances are terrific, especially by Harrison Ford as Han Solo, and Billy Dee Williams as Lando Calrissian. George Lucas has also remembered to include a spellbinding battle sequence with the snow speeder sequence near the beginning of the film. The conclusion, with a light saber duel between Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker, is ...

2007-10-29 16:14:00 I have a dream. In mid-2008 I'll be in Paris. Maybe I'll roam with a Nokia 9N5. I'll use Google Maps on it to find the fastest walking path to the Louvre (http://www.louvre.fr). There's bound to be contemporary artists at the Louvre copying paintings by dead artists. I'll then head to d'Orsay (http://www.musee-orsay.fr/en/h-ome.html) museum and review again the work of Impressionists who too copied the work of dead artists, many of them Japanese.

The Vatican Empire Strikes Back
2007-05-05 22:20:00 Religious authority figures don't have immunity when it comes to being made the butt of comedians' humor.Witness the jibes directed at the likes of Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell, the mockery aimed at imams and the shots directed at Anglicans - especially with respect to the issue of the ordination and marital rights of gays. Almost never do you hear anyone call comedians who take a dig at any of the above "terrorists". A distinction is drawn between a person exercising their right to outspoken dissent of the satirical variety and a person engaged in illegal subversive activities.Seems the Vatican though doesn't make this fine distinction. What can be done onto others, can't be done onto them without it being branded as "terrorism".At a recent May Day rally in Italy, a comedian named Andrea Rivera, made a few jokes at the Pope's expense - jokes that were mild by the standards of a lively New York standup routine. The Vatican reacted with a broadside fired by its newspaper L'O...

The empire strikes back
2007-04-10 15:37:00 It may yet be of symbolic value, but the BCCI's message to Sachin Tendulkar, the holiest of holy cows, will not be lost on anyoneReview meetings are meant to be eyewashes. Not much more than some token nip and tuck was expected of the two-day meeting of the Board of Control for Cricket in India to discuss its team's embarrasssing early return from the World Cup. What has emerged instead is a series of tough, some would even say harsh, measures aimed at reining in some of the game's biggest - and, in the eyes of the board, truant - superstars. The message to them is strong, and it has been delivered in the bluntest manner possible.And amid it all there is a massive vote of confidence for Rahul Dravid. It may yet be of symbolic value, but the message to Sachin Tendulkar, the holiest of holy cows, will not be lost on anyone. By deciding to serve him a show cause notice for his interview to a leading newspaper, in which he expressed his hurt over the coach questioning his attitude, t...
The Persian Empire strikes back
2007-03-30 18:04:00 It is about the British sailors or marines or whatever they are called , pardon me because I am not in the mood as I feel so ............ Let's speak the truth the British wanted to play some game yet the Iranians turned the table over their heads , they wanted to play James Bond with the Vevak the son of the Sevak , the mighty Sevak The British say that they didn't enter the Iranian water and that they got a satellite image for this and thus they will not apologize demanding the immediate release of their soldiers On the other side the Iranians say that the speed boat or what even the British Navy soldier were using entered the Iranian waters for about 1/2 KM , and this is a violation and UK should apologize With my all respect I don't think that the Speed Boat of James Bond enter 1/2 KM , if it enter 1/2 KM then how the Iranian Navy went so fast to catch the Britons , I mean 1/2 KM is enough distance to make the Britons just jump and swim to the Iraqi safe side as soon as the...
