PACQUIAO A CINCH FOR ‘FIGHTER OF THE YEAR’ AW

The acknowledged “Hero of Asia” and reigning pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao is a cinch to win the coveted award as “Fighter of the Year” from the prestigious Boxing Writers Association of America.

BWAA president Jack Hirsch informed www.insidesports.ph, Standard Today and Viva Sports that although the boxing writers will not be voting for the 2009 awards for a few weeks yet, “it is safe to assume Manny Pacquiao will be the Fighter of the Year.”

Hirsch pointed out that it will be the third time for Pacquiao who carved his name in the record books by winning seven world titles in seven different weight division with his 12th round TKO victory over WBO welterweight

Can't believe this crap!

(Nov. 9) -- Many stars have had to fight persistent rumors about their sexuality. And in that way, Ernie and Bert are no different than John Travolta and Tom Cruise.

I've recounted the stories about the infamous "Ernie and Bert are gay" rumor probably more times than Count Von Count can count. But with "Sesame Street" celebrating its 40th anniversary on Tuesday, I'm going to take it as an opportunity to rehash that same silly rumor one more time.

SRK Coming 2 Doha Qatar

How else do you explain a possible meeting between Oscar-winning film-maker Danny Boyle and Bollywood Badshah Shah Rukh Khan? Together, the duo will be attending the Doha 21st Century Leaders Award. Earlier, it was reported that SRK has been approached for Bombay Velvet, a film that was supposed to be directed by Anurag Kashyap and produced by Danny Boyle. Though there’s no official announcement on that front, the actor and the film-maker will be at their social best at the event.

Has the movie Blue released in Doha yet?

Has the movie Blue released in Doha yet?

...the most expensive Bollywood film with a budget of more than US $28 million.

Kylie Minogue is said to have made a special apperance in a song sequence.

....boasting of some great deep sea shots ( by Pete Zuccarini, cinematographer, Pirates of the Caribbean fame), stunning action sequences, a crackling background music score and sound design by the two Oscar winners (AR Rahman and Resul Pookutty)...

Two-year-old with same IQ as Einstein

Assessors at the Gifted Children's Information Centre in Solihull said Oscar, with an IQ of at least 160, is one of the brightest children they have every come across.

He has been ranked in the 99.99th percentile of the population and has been ranked off the scale as the Stanford-Binet test cannot measure higher than 160.

Oscar's father Joe, 29, an IT specialist from Reading in Berkshire, said: "Oscar was recently telling my wife about the reproductive cycle of penguins.

"He is always asking questions. Every parent likes to think their child was special but we knew there was something particularly remarkable about Oscar.

"I'm fully expecting the day to come when he turns around and tells me I'm an idiot."

Inglourious Basterds Fabulous Movie Out Now

``````````````Inglorious Basterds```````````````````

This isn't a review as im exhausted and off to bed.
The purpose of this thread is to inform those of you whose interest is piqued, to not hesitate a minute further and catch the movie before it's off the cinemas in Qatar.
Brad Pit outdid himself. If ever anyone was a victim of his good looks, then it surely must be Brad, because I assume being classed as a 'celebrity hottie' appears to have blinded people of his uncanny talent as a seasoned actor. An Oscar is in order!

it's going to take me a few days coming off copying his characters Tennessee drawl. Good Nite Y'all

P.s. This Movie is actually better than it's trailer.
