| Sir Anthony Hopkins slates 'plastic stars'
IT'S become almost a badge of honour for Hollywood stars of a certain age. Some may hide it better than others, but an ever increasing number of celebrities are going under the knife in an attempt to hold back the march of time. But the momentum of the anti-plastic surgery campaign has been boosted after Sir Anthony Hopkins joined its ranks. The veteran Welsh actor has criticised vanity-obsessed actors who undergo plastic surgery, insisting the face-distorting procedures make them look "ridiculous". Sir Anthony is one of the stars rebelling against the trend for cosmetic surgery, as used by people like Mickey Rourke and Joan Rivers, in favour of growing old more naturally. He is due to celebrate his 70th birthday with old school friends in his native Port Talbot this month, says he will never go under the knife.
Appleās lawyers threaten fake Steve Jobs
The Fake Steve Jobs blog is always entertaining. And never more so than now. According to recent posts on the blog, site owner Daniel Lyons has been approached by Apple to accept money in return for closing down the site. After initially announcing the offer on the blog, Lyons was then contacted by Apple's lawyers threatening legal action and telling him the deal was not meant to be public knowledge. The ensuing debate is fascinating as Apple's lawyers get increasingly heavy-handed. (Updated) After Lyons makes public the offer of cash to shut down the blog, Apple's lawyers return with a letter in which they tell Lyons that there are at least three posts on his site that they "deem to be actionable", a lawyer-speak way of threatening legal action. The three posts are listed in a later blog post and involve predictions made on the Fake Steve Jobs blog about upcoming product announcements by the company.
March of the wind farm in doubt on a divided island
It stands to reason that providing a school and teacher for 3 bairns on Unst or somewhere is higher than a building and a teacher for 20 in Falkirk. Or the cost of mile of road per number of cars going to use it on Harris compared to Cumbernauld. Or flying a woman to give birth from Raasay to Fort William. It costs the government more to provide public services to people in the North West and Islands. As a taxpayer, I don't object. But now you have a chance to help the national good in a way that only your part of the country can and you're all moaning. .
Police & Fire
A suitcase fell from a pick up truck departing from an I-75 Business Spur fueling station on Saturday. Authorities have the suitcase tagged and are awaiting claim by the rightful owner. A backpack - containing a laptop, Ipod and calculator - was taken from a parked vehicle in the 1000 block of E. 6th late Saturday night or early Sunday morning. The missing items have a combined value in excess of $1,500 and there are no suspects at this time. A purse also came up missing by unknown means after a woman visited an I-75 Business Spur thrift shop on Friday. The wayward handbag contained credit cards and various forms of identification with the owner expressing the belief that the purse was lost and not stolen. Finally, two amplifiers valued at $1,700, were taken from a vehicle parked in the 400 block of Cedar.

Holla Backlash
OK, dear students, let's begin. Rewind your lil' minds back to the last Holla of 2007. We promised, crossed our black heart, all that silly stuff, not to talk about the big "B" word in 2008. You know just who we're talkin' 'bout, don'tcha? We'll give you a few hints: busted weave? Paparazzo boytoy with a goatee that looks like a Brazilian wax is hangin' out on his chin? Baby sis currently with child and keeping "mum" on the topic o' babydaddy? OF COURSE it's the legendary Miss Britney Spears, who's been keeping Holla so entertained with all her Brituations that we can't resist the temptation to talk about her! Holding her baby hostage in a standoff situation? Practicing her British accent to the delight of tabloids everywhere? C'mon! This stuff is golden! Plus, without Brit, who's gonna give Holla consistent comedic relief day to day? Zac Efron? Of course not! Now, speculation swirls that Brit-Brit has some serious mental issues causing her to plummet downward at an alarming rate, but Holla's not so sure; we think Unfitney knows just what she's doin'.

SFGate: Politics Blog
Lugar, a careful, studious, mild-mannered Indianan, Rhodes scholar and former Indianapolis mayor whose lack of TV charisma doomed his 1996 presidential bid, should stand as Exhibit A for voters who wonder why the people they choose to lead the world's superpower are so seldom the statesmen and women they insist they want. Lugar's fatal flaw, of course, was that even as he watched the Iraq disaster unfold, he limited his criticisms to carefully worded reservations, never breaking cleanly with the White House. Even earlier this year, he urged his GOP colleagues to continue to work with an administration that he publicly conceded turned a deaf ear to outside dissent, however well intended. When the history of the Iraq war is written, Lugar may join British Prime Minister Tony Blair and former Secretary of State Colin Powell as those who could have used their stature to avert war, but instead sought to alter the course from within, lending the administration vital credibility at key turning points.
