Panbanisha, a bonobo at the Great Ape Trust in Des Moines, has
given names to two trumpeter swans nesting at the Des Moines
Researh Center. Researchers made references to the swans while
communicating with the bonobo -- showing the ape they were
interested in giving them names.
Such pandering is hardly surprising, because contenders for high
office routinely court special interest groups, and Israel's
staunchest supporters -- the Israel lobby, as we have termed it --
expect it. Politicians do not want to offend Jewish Americans or
"Christian Zionists," two groups that are deeply engaged in the
political process.
Sienna Miller can't bear to ever throw her clothes away. The 'Edge
of Love' actress admits that even though she is sent boxes of free
new designer outfits every day, she can't bring herself to give
away her old clothes. Sienna said: "I can't get rid of anything.
That is my problem."
In a sharp reversal from Georgia?s earlier optimism, some Georgian
analysts now believe that the November 7 protest crackdown in
Tbilisi has marred ? if not shattered ? the South Caucasus state?s
chances for accelerated integration into the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization.
The music biopic is a genre that's so overly familiar - and so
frequently addled with cliches - it's more than ripe for parody.
(Look no further than the Judd Apatow-produced comedy "Walk Hard:
The Dewey Cox Story," coming out later this winter.)
