This cat has purr-sonality in the form of the mysterious masked crusader. One of Indraini Wahyudin Noor’s many cats — this one cryptically named “Boy” — is going viral for bearing an uncanny resemblance to Zorro. The nine-month-old Persian kitten has a distinct black patch surrounding both eyes that looks just like the iconic mask of the hero created by American “pulp” writer Johnston McCulley in 1919. He isn’t too different from a regular cat, as Noor says, “he always wants to be petted, cuddled and held. He likes to play a lot, but he hates being bathed each week.”...

Sofia Vergara (Modern Family), Robert Rodriguez (From Dusk Till Dawn, Desperado) and Rebecca Rodriguez (Snowpiercer) are on a team putting forth a gender-swapped, modern take on the classic vigilante, our sister site Deadline reports.

The drama will focus on Sola Dominguez, an underground artist who suits up as the legendary Zorro so she can fight for...

Bill and Hillary Clinton stayed at Jeffrey Epstein's notorious 'baby-making ranch' almost every year after they left the White House, according to the disgraced financier's estate manager. The former president was Epstein's closest 'celebrity mate' and the Clintons, along with daughter Chelsea, visited Zorro Ranch 'a whole bunch of times', a former contractor who ran the IT system at the property told DailyMailTV in an exclusive interview. The family visited the 10,000-acre estate in the New Mexico desert often, but never stayed in the main house. Instead, the Clinton family bunked down in a special cowboy-themed village created by Epstein,...

LAS VEGAS, - The American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit on behalf of a man who claims a Las Vegas hotel kidnapped him and his brother while he was dressed as Zorro. The lawsuit alleges Jason Perez-Morciglio, 36, was throwing away trash in front of The Venetian Jan. 15 with his brother, Sebastian Perez-Morciglio, 28 -- who sometimes dresses as Darth Vader for street performances with his brother but was not in costume -- when hotel security officers "kidnapped the brothers, forced them into a small room inside the Venetian Hotel and detained them," the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported...

The former Mexican president is touting his new memoirs in a cross-country trip Former Mexican President Vicente Fox doesn't get many breaks these days. He was slapped around on The O'Reilly Factor, had a new statue of his likeness yanked down by an angry mob in Veracruz, and along the way promoted his memoirs, which were published in English. Fox, whose U.S. tour is taking him from New York to California and points in between, stopped off in Houston on Monday, where he signed autographs, posed for photographs and spoke of his plans to follow the leads of former Presidents...

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexican President Vicente Fox's ruling party could be the big winner of an immigration overhaul passed in the U.S. Senate as it tries to hold on to power in July elections. The Senate easily passed a bill on Thursday that would give millions of illegal immigrants, many of them Mexicans, a chance to become American citizens. The most sweeping immigration bill in two decades, it could be watered down in a tough battle with the House of Representatives, where many lawmakers favor a crackdown on immigration, and it may never become law. However, it is unlikely...

In California, Fox Gets Warm Embrace and a Cold ShoulderBy JOHN M. BRODER Published: May 26, 2006 SACRAMENTO, May 25 — In an echo of the debate on immigration under way in Washington, the California Legislature gave visiting President Vicente Fox of Mexico a two-edged welcome on Thursday. Democratic and Latino members, including the Assembly speaker, Fabian Núñez, embraced Mr. Fox, while some Republicans boycotted his evening address to a joint session of the Legislature. Other Republicans attended the speech, but wore yellow buttons reading "No más!" to protest Mr. Fox's support for liberalizing American policies on immigration. In his...

BISBEE — As Congress has taken up the issue of immigration reform, the Mexican government of President Vicente Fox has been anything but a disinterested bystander. When the House of Representatives approved a bill in December that would have built 700 miles of fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border and made it a felony to reside illegally in the U.S., Fox denounced the measure as shameful. His foreign minister, Luis Ernesto Derbez, went further and called it stupid and underhanded. After thousands of marchers took to the streets of U.S. cities last week to protest the pending immigration legislation, Fox’s spokesman,...

MONTERREY, Mexico- President Vicente Fox on Wednesday criticized the United States' decision to strengthen its border security and complete a wall along the border, calling it "shameful and embarrassing." "This situation we're seeing, a shameful, embarrassing moment where walls are being built, security systems are being reinforced, and human and labor rights are being violated more and more, won't protect the economy of the United States," Fox said. On Monday, a U.S. federal judge lifted the final legal barrier allowing for the completion of a border fence along the Mexico-California border. Plans call for two additional fences running parallel to...

OYLESTOWN, PA (KYW) The man known as naked Zorro crossed the line in Bucks County with his antics. CBS 3 Reporter Lesley Van Arsdall reports that his antics are hitting a new low. Many thought that a man roaming the streets in only a mask was a joke, but police say the masked man is now targeting children. I just think it's funny a naked guy running around Doylestown, said Samantha Mogil of Doylestown. It sounds almost comical, an exhibitionist dressed only in a Zorro mask and white sneakers following women around the streets of Doylestown. It is not only...

Despite the tendency to see Iran as an Islamic monolith and the attempts of the ruling clerics in Tehran to cast it as such, the full complexity of Iranian identity is little understood and almost never discussed—even by Iranians themselves. Long before it was absorbed into the Islamic empire by Arab armies under Caliphs Umar and Uthman in the mid-seventh century, Persia had been the birthplace of Zarathustianism, or Zoroastrianism, the world’s first monotheistic religion.The religion was forged some 3,500 years ago around the philosopher-prophet Zarathustra’s teachings, which emphasized personal morality and a conscious choice between good and evil. From...
