Buraku, this article was not written by a Brazilian fan. Because when you read the news or watch TV here in Brazil, you realise there are 200 million people who hates Dunga, i.e., the whole country. They say this team may be efficient, but they play horribly.

Beautiful. Simply beautiful. This Gabonese woman is an Amazon, a truly winner.

Well, 1800's people lived well, better than us perhaps, with no cell phones, faxes, internet, Iphones and Ipads. So, Ipad is not quintessential. But if I had to buy something right now, it would be the new Iphone AND an Ipad, to use in my work.

I second what was said above: if you want to see creativity and originality, then avoid blockbusters. Watch indie movies, youtube movies (there are a lot of great short movies done specifically for youtube, did you know that?), movies in other languages. There are a lot of talented directors/actors that just avoid Hollywood.
Posted in: Hollywood is bombarding us this summer with lots of sequels and remakes, such as "Iron Man 2," "Sex and the City 2," "Toy Story 3," "Shrek 4," and "The Karate Kid," among others. Whatever happened to creativity and originality in films?

Even if it's not new news, it must be reported, as ST did. In a world where people are losing their parameters of what's right and what's wrong, governments should set the example to bel followed. Bribery is a crime, a serious one. Japan should be ashamed of this: selling money and prostitute for the rights of killing.

jam sandwich: S Korea next match is a thunderstorm rising in the horizon: against powerful Argentina next Thursday. Now, if they defeat violent Argentines, it will be a benchmark in Asian soccer. My bet: S Korea 2, Argentina 2. It will be a defeat for the Silvers, a victory for the Reds. Japan will beat Cameroon 2-1, and everybody will be happy drinking Asahi Super Dry.

I don't know why, but I don't think these actors and their characters are sexy. Far from it. Looking at this picture what I see is four 2010 women: expensively dressed, but also blandly. Successful, somehow empty inside. And as NYers, extremely neurotic. Not my kind.

What is not written in this article is that FIFA asks Adidas to develop faster balls before every World Cup. The reason? More goals, at the cost of angry players and goalkeepers. What FIFA doesn't want in a World Cup is games ending up in draws - which may be satisfactory to some teams, but not for TV ratings and fans. Faster ball: pure marketing. The sad side of this is that a faster ball means it is also harder to control, and consequently to drible - in the end, it takes the art of the game away.

I have to disagree about this, Buraku: in games with legs worth hundreds of millions of dollars, fans and hoolingans watching, national prides involved, latest fashion stadia and multi-national sponsors, one can never be too careful about injuries. Just imagine what kind of situation we would have if a Kiwi broke a Soccerros' leg, and won the match... The only exception is France, they deserved to have their legs, and hands, broken with baseball bats.

Have you guys seen Argentina beating Canada? It was a real show of talent, speed and finalizations. Socceroos should pay attention to European "air game", those guys do love a header.

These toys can act better than real actors. I just watched 'Clash of the Titans'. Gosh, I was expecting a GI Joe to appear flying on Pegasus to save Argos any moment, and the dialogues, gahh, I wanted to puke. Hollywood at its worst.

Problem is not homosexuality, which is tolerated and practiced, but in soft whispers in the arabic world, but Elton John's buoyancy, the frivolity, this is something that a lot of homosexuals don't like, or accept.
