All Around the World the Same Song

Just in case you think "the enemy" is only after America and Americans:

ALGIERS - Twin car bombs near United Nations offices and an Algerian government building killed more than a score of people yesterday in what may have been the deadliest attack here in more than a decade.

Two European diplomats in Algiers said that reports from rescue and medical workers led them to believe that 60 or more people had died. The Algerian interior minister, Noureddine Yazid Zerhouni, told reporters at a news conference last evening that so far 22 had been confirmed dead.

The terrorist group Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb claimed responsibility, posting a message on Islamist websites with photographs of two men it said were suicide bombers who carried out the attacks, which it said were aimed at "the Crusaders and their agents, the slaves of America and the sons of France."


Ouch. Al Qaeda doesn't even consider the people of Algeria independent-minded. Then again, it's not like the country hasn't had their problems with the group.

Sandrine Holt - Age: 36, Height: 5'10", Relevant Movie/TV Roles: Resident Evil: Apocalypse & Mutant X Pros : She's played both a (doomed) reporter and a person with superpowers, so if she can play both, she's a shoe-in. Plus she's probably the least-known actress on this list, so they can two movies out of her cheap. Cons : While D.C. isn't as star-crazy as Marvel when it co...

Being the avid movie watcher that I am, I've noticed that more than one talented actress has been passed over for other talent. And by "talent," I mean, "sex tapes that 'accidentally' made it to the Internet." Well, here's one man's humble attempt to rectify the situation. The following ladies are not only talented, but beautiful. Hollywood: get off your ass and give these women more roles. DANIELLE FISHEL Noticeable TV/Movie Appearances: Boy Meets World; both National Lampoon's Dorm Dazes The delightful Ms. Fishel has the distinction of having the weirdest named ever associated with a smart-yet-hot character (or maybe I'm the only one who has a problem saying "Topanga!" whilst in the throes of passion) as well as participating in the death of the National Lampoon Series (I personally thought it died with Chevy Chase's career; who knew?). If you were to use her IMBD page as a reference, the only real fault people seem to hav...
