The Batman Complex - Theatrical Trailer

Let me just say that what you are about to see is not true.
This video is an "artist" interpretation of a schizophrenic Bruce Wayne who imagines he is the superhero, Batman. Well then, he gets help from Leonardo Dicaprio - with his Inception style dream-invasion and sh*t.
Pretty clever and interesting - this one's a genius!

On Stranger Tides, Pirates Star-Johnny Depp's Cool Fashion Statement

(L-R Photos) Cannes, May 14;  Disneyland California, May 7;  London, May 12

Hollywood A-List actor Johnny Depp has been pretty busy going around the globe - Cannes, California, London-  for attending the "premiere" events for his new film, Pirates of The Carribean: On Stranger Tides.

Take notice on how Johnny dresses himself, of course he's got stylists but if you'll look closely, his clothes are bold and daring - Depp's the straight guy that can wear anything without me thinking that he's gay.

In other words, he carries himself well.

You go Jack Sparrow, spread some more fashion goodness!

Pippa Middleton Will Sue Newspaper For Publishing Her Topless Sunbathing Photos

Pippa Middleton: the sister of Kate that flirted with Prince Harry, the girl with a hot ass, and now, the sex-symbol who sunbathe topless - that's why she's been offered to do porn.

Yeah, you read it right, she wants her tits tanned like her boob-sies.

The "not-so-royal-photos" were taken in 2006 way before the Royal wedding.
The paparazzi took the photo when the Middleton sisters, together with Prince William, were having their "private" vacation in Spain.

Pippa went topless on a yacht in Ibiza - or was she doing her laundry, talk about washing your bra in seawater. I don't know if detergents work with saltwater. 

The upside, all the boys has got to see Pippa's pair of coconuts, err,  just one coconut, and it's quite far.

The downside, the Middleton family are planning to file a legal complaint against two newspapers that published the "topless" photos.

Check Out Pippa's topless photo after the jump.

Lord Buddha’s teachings can help solve problems the world faces Moon’s ‘Vesak Day’ message

"The Lord Buddha’s teachings can guide our efforts to resolve the severe problems facing today’s world," said UN Secretary General Ban ki-Moon, in his message to mark

the United Nations Day of Vesak 2011.

He said: The Lord Buddha, whose birth, enlightenment and passing we mark each year on Vesak Day, bequeathed to humanity profound teachings that can guide our efforts to resolve the severe problems facing today’s world.

His injunction against the three poisons of greed, anger and ignorance is especially relevant to multilateral efforts to overcome the hunger that needlessly affects nearly a billion people in a world of plenty, the brutal violence that takes millions of lives each year, and the senseless environmental damage that humans cause to our only home, the planet earth.

We are not the US - Manmohan

AFGHANISTAN: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh Thursday demanded a thorough investigation into how Osama bin Laden could live in Pakistan for so long before he was eliminated. One needs to go in for a thorough investigation into the presence of Osama bin Laden for such a long time in Abbottabad, he said at a joint press conference with Afghan President Hamid Karzai after their talks.

The Prime Minister is in Afghanistan on a two-day visit. He said bin Laden's death had created a new situation, and all the countries of the region India, Pakistan and Afghanistan would recognise this as a unique moment" in the history of this region and work united to end the scourge of terrorism.

Asked whether India would adopt the type of operation carried out by the US to eliminate the al-Qaeda chief in order to get the terrorists wanted by it, Dr. Singh said: These are sensitive issues and we don't discuss strategies on terror in press conferences. He added: We are not the US, implying that India did not favour such an operation.

Dr. Singh expressed the hope that the world community would use its increasing amount of influence to persuade all the countries in the region that the future does not belong to having continued recourse to the scourge of terrorism. Our experience in the past has been rather frustrating and disappointing. But one cannot lose hope, he said. In his opening remarks, he announced a fresh commitment of $500 million to Afghanistan in the next few years for development.

This will consist of specific projects and schemes and other initiatives that will be developed in consultation with the government of Afghanistan, he said reiterating India's firm and unwavering" commitment to assisting that country in areas that are of priority and concern to them. The Hindu/DN

Osama Bin Laden's XXX Video Collection, And His Alleged PORN Addiction

Osama allegedly watched Porn.
Oh yeah, you bad dog!

Fairly extensive XXX rated collection videos were found in Osama Bin Laden's secret residence in Pakistan.
The porn stash consists of "modern, electronically recorded video," according to Sun.
It was the items collected from Bin Laden's den after the US raid on May 2 which killed the most wanted criminal in the world.
The compound has no internet connection, but is known to have had "video machines"

So what kind of porn? Maybe porn-stars' f*ckin' inside a bomb-planted-car, then when it's about time to cum, the car climactic-ally blows along with their orgasms. Yikes

I was thinking, when they shot Bin Laden with just his undergarments on, was he "jerkin'?" ROFL

The visual "circus"-like elements that were incorporated with the up-beat, kick ass music matched Tyler's eccentric style. 

Fun, very. Certified eye candy.

Microsoft buys Skype

Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) agreed to buy Skype Technologies SA for $8.5 billion in cash to gain the world’s most popular Internet calling service and its 663 million customers.

Microsoft will acquire Luxembourg-based Skype from an investor group led by Silver Lake, the companies said in a statement yesterday.

(GOOG)’s lead in Internet advertising. The acquisition is Redmond, Washington- based Microsoft’s largest, surpassing the purchase of AQuantive Inc. for about $6 billion in 2007.

Australia vows to be world’s first back in surplus

Australia yesterday vowed to be the first advanced economy to return its budget to surplus after the global financial crisis, saying it will be “back in the black” within two years.

Treasurer Wayne Swan is set to release an austere, belt-tightening budget Tuesday evening to haul in a reported Aus$50 billion (US$54 billion) deficit, in part created by stimulus spending during the worldwide slump.

“Tonight’s budget will get us back in the black,” Swan told reporters, saying that forward estimates would show a return to surplus in 2012/13.

“We will come back to surplus before any other major advanced economy.”

Resource-rich Australia, with its strong banking system and wealth of natural minerals, survived the crisis better than most and was the first advanced economy to lift interest rates in its wake.

But when asked if he'll consider doing music with the Pinoy boxing Champ Manny Pacquiao, Justin ruled out any possibilities.

Ouch! Below the belt.

Given Manny's AMAZING singing TALENT, it will "hurts," you know!

Rihanna's California King Bed - Music Video

Riri debuted her music video for California King Bed today.

It's basically the redhead Rihanna and her boy-toy lying in an expanding bed.

That shower scene? what's that for?

I have to say, the video is quite lazy and sleepy. Good thing, Riri is an eye candy, had if not... puff.

Did Prince Harry Flirt With Charlize Theron? Watch Your Back, Chelsy!

Spotted!

His highness Prince Harry, horsing around Charlize Theron.

The South African-Academy Award-winning-actress' flower went into a full bloom as she and Harry strolled the grounds of Royal Berkshires for a charity polo match in Coworth Park.

Hmmm, juicy! If you look at Theron's face, she seemed very happy. The prince may have said something that tickled her vulva, or labia minora, or tonsils? The hell we care. 

So did he flirt?

Yep, our cheeky Harry may have had a boner just by being with Charlize, look closely, he's discreetly adjusting his sword inside his pockets. Yikes!

We all know that our Royal prince is a damn hustler in riding horses. Would he be a hustler too, say, if he rides on top of an A-List Hollywood actress? Ha?!

What you gonna do, Chelsy Davy?

Lady Gaga's The Edge Of Glory - Audio

Lady Gaga has premiered her new track, The Edge of Glory.

The pulsating, glorified-disco-pop-track is clearly The Monster's tribute to the music of the 80's.
The new single incorporates loud vocals with a classic vibe accompanied by the "sax."

Certified ear candy, don't blame yourself if you'd want to hear it again... and again.

Parliament to introduce live broadcast

The Parliament will soon introduce live broadcasts of its proceedings, Deputy Speaker Chandima Weerakkody said.

In an interview with the BBC Sinhala service, Sandeshaya, Mr. Weerakkody said that that the initial trial will only be limited to radio broadcast.

“The speaker is committed to broadcast the proceedings of our parliament to the Sri Lankan people,” he said.

“As it is going to be a trial, there won’t be television coverage in the beginning.”

The deputy speaker, who is in London by the invitation of UK parliament to study Westminster system, said the arrangements are underway for the live broadcast of the proceedings to begin as soon as possible.

“We hope all the parliamentarians will behave more responsibly as the live broadcasts begin,” he added but said that no date has been agreed for the first broadcast.

The Galle district MP has held discussions with the speaker of the UK parliament, three deputy speakers, the general secretary, heads of parliamentary departments as well as the parliamentarians during his study tour.

He used the opportunity, said Deputy Speaker Weerakkody, to explain to the Westminster MPs the efforts by the Sri Lankan government to defeat terrorism.

SLPI discusses challenges facing 21st century media

The Sri Lanka Press Institute organised a series of events including a workshop, a film festival and an inter-school trilingual oratorical competition based on the year’s theme “21st Century Media: New Frontiers, New Barriers.” to commemorate World Press Freedom Day,

A section of the participants

The workshop held on Tuesday consisted of presentations from veteran British journalist Fiona Barton and two of Sri Lanka’s leading exponents of new media, Dr. Rohan Samarajeewa and Nalaka Gunawardene. All areas of the media including citizen journalism, micro-blogging via cell phones, modern internet tools, journalistic ethics as well as barriers and new attempts to block, filter and censor information were discussed at the workshop.

Addressing the gathering, Ms. Fiona Barton said there have been many instances in recent times where bloggers and other new media users had exposed state corruption, revealed sensitive military details and diplomatic blunders.

“The number of bloggers has increased from 22 million in 2005 to 100 million in 2010. New media has contributed towards the rising tide of citizens’ revolts in the Middle East she said. Ms. Barton said it was reported that in Egypt 45 - 50 tweets per minute were sent while in Syria around 30 -35 tweets per minute continue to be sent.

She added this had resulted in increased government surveillance and at present around 119 ‘netizens’ (people actively involved in online communication) were imprisoned”. Ms. Barton lamented most bloggers and new media journalists rarely followed journalistic standards and editorial practices.
“It is important to know that information by itself is not journalism. It is our duty to provide information together with analyses and explanations while maintaining discipline.

Fiona Barton	Dr. Samarajeewa

“Today there is hardly any genuine investigative journalism or research. It is important that the press while maintaining standards, should collaborate and embrace whatever is new,” she added. Nalaka Gunawardena said the present information society faces issues of privacy and surveillance, fleeting attention, intellectual property rights and transparency.

Former Director General of the Telecom Regulatory Commission, Dr. Rohan Samarajeewa spoke of the contribution of the new media in the recent uprisings in the Middle East, as well as the restrictions placed upon new media.
