Let's see if I can do this with her laying on the mouse now -g-

A Must Watch Movie for fans of this thread!

For those who have not seen it!

Joshua McCord (CHUCK NORRIS) is a professor of Asian studies at a Dallas university. But he also hides a secret identity: he is "The President's Man," a top secret operative who is sent on the government's most sensitive and dangerous missions. However, years of service have begun to take their toll on McCord, and after a narrow escape during his most recent mission, he decides it may be time to find a successor. The top candidate: Deke Slater (DYLAN NEAL), a hotheaded but highly skilled member of Delta Force who has just landed himself in prison after disobeying a direct order from a superior officer. McCord arranges for Slater's release and begins to train him, but Slater's lack of good judgement quickly becomes evident during his very first assignment. McCord begins to question his choice, but there's no turning back now: a Columbian drug cartel has kidnapped a U.S. nuclear weapons expert and his family, and McCord is going to need Slater's help to get them out before the cartel can obtain the information they need to build their own nukes. Can McCord and Slater find a way to work together and rescue the hostages before it's too late?

After a group of Islamic extremists commit a series of terrorist acts against the United States, the President (ROBERT URICH) calls on the one man he knows can end the terrorist threat: Joshua McCord (CHUCK NORRIS), a professor of Asian studies at a Dallas university who is also "The President's Man," a top secret operative who is only sent on the government's most sensitive and dangerous missions. McCord enlists his protégé, Deke Slater (JUDSON MILLS) to assist with the mission, and they successfully capture Abdul Rashid (JOEL SWETOW), the mastermind behind the terrorist plots. But while Rashid awaits trial in Dallas, his son and zealous followers smuggle a nuclear weapon into the city and threaten to detonate it if Rashid is not released. Can McCord and Slater find a way to stop the terrorists before they level the city?

Kerry intern hiding in Kenya

By NATION Reporter 
and Agencies

The young intern at the centre of a furore involving United States presidential hopeful John Kerry is hiding out in Kenya.

Alex Polier, 24, has been in the country for the past few weeks visiting her fiancee, Mr Yaron Schwartzman, who works with FilmStudios, along Nairobi's Ngong Road.

Ms Polier, who could end Senator John Kerry's hopes of becoming the next president of the United States, is alleged to have had a two-year affair with the front-runner for the Democratic nomination. 

"This is not going to go away," one American friend of Ms Polier said yesterday. "What actually happened is much nastier than is being reported."

The allegations come at a crucial time for the senator. Polls showed him leading Mr Bush by 52 per cent to 42 per cent, and aides will be anxious to see if the apparent scandal affects his standing among voters.

Ms Polier, a former intern who also spent some time in 1998 doing work experience at the Houses of Parliament in London, is in Kenya staying with Mr Schwartzman. 

It was not immediately clear what Mr Schwartzman does at FilmStudios. Efforts to contact the family home in the leafy suburb of Lavington were fruitless.

Miss Polier and her fiance were believed to be hiding at the Nairobi home of Mr Schwartzman's parents, who moved to Kenya from Israel.

Mr Joseph Schwartzman is the chairman of the H Young group of companies. His wife, Hannah, is described by friends to be a devout Jew who was hoping to see her future daughter-in-law convert to Judaism before the wedding ceremony planned for some time later in the year.

The Nation has established, however, that the couple were students together at Columbia University in New York. 

Both have refused to make any comment on her alleged links with Senator Kerry, who is married to Teresa Heinz Kerry, heiress to a food empire.

Senator Kerry, a decorated Vietnam veteran dubbed the new JFK, has vehemently denied any relationship with Miss Polier and shrugged off allegations that he had a two-year affair with her from 2001. He said: "I just deny it categorically. It's rumour. It's untrue. Period." 

Mr Kerry flatly denied swirling rumours about an extramarital affair, assuring backers that his campaign was not vulnerable to a sudden sex scandal.

Mr Kerry, married once before, was something of a playboy after his divorce, dating starlets Morgan Fairchild and Catherine Oxenberg.

Mrs Heinz-Kerry, who has been a fixture on the campaign trail, is no shrinking violet. She once told a writer for Elle magazine that she would jokingly warn her first husband that if he ever strayed, "I'll maim you. Not kill you, just maim you." 

Mr Kerry, 60, has won 12 out of the 14 Democratic primaries and has looked all but certain to seal the nomination to take on President George W. Bush in November's elections.

His aides have blamed a dirty tricks campaign for bringing the allegations about Miss Polier into the public eye; they first surfaced last week on a right-wing internet site, the Drudge Report, which famously first broke the news of Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky.

Ms Polier's parents, Terry and Donna, from Malvern, Pennsylvania, added fuel to the fire by claiming that Mr Kerry did pursue their daughter.

Said Mr Polier: "I think he's a sleazeball. I did wonder if she didn't get that feeling herself. He's not the sort of guy I'd choose to be with my daughter. John Kerry called my daughter and invited her to be on his re-election committee. She talked to him and decided against it."

The Drudge website also quoted retired Gen Wesley Clark, one of Mr Kerry's rivals for the nomination, as having told journalists off the record: "Kerry will implode over an intern issue."

Mr Clark later dropped out of the race and endorsed Mr Kerry.

Miss Polier, a journalist who once worked for Associated Press, apparently met the senator as she was beginning her media career.

The Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar, and as such as estimated dates. If the dates are off early in the year, for example if the new moon is sighted a day earlier or later than projected, it can throw the entire calendar off. Normally it all balances out - one month they may be early, another month they may be late, but overall it comes out about the same. But some years it really gets screwed up. So in the 12th month, which is where we are now, you can be off by several days.

Not known. One of the posters here- Sean Lomax- wrote that he has it on very good information that we caught OBL and are currently holding him. No word where, and no official confirmation. More detail is given on the NEIN website.

Now Daleel is claiming that someone quite important was freed when the prisoners in Iraq were freed. And that whoever it is, will prove to be highly embarrassing to Bush and Blair. On the IH forum, a poster asked about Saddam being the person in question and Daleel said he was coming close, but would not answer any further questions.

Intriguing.

There are messages on the Arabic forums saying he was sprung from the Fallujah prison but I would be shocked if Saddam was being held in Fallujah.

I attribute these postings to a move by Al Qaeda and Al Ansar to try and stir up fear and trouble within Iraq. If the Iraqis think Saddam is free then they are not going to be happy campers.

Notice this morning that the US announced that the Red Cross will be visiting Saddam shortly. I imagine this is being done to dispel these rumors.

that town had no US soldiers in it because the local police asked them to vacate. that's why they were hit so hard. I can't imagine that the police there had captured anyone of significance, our forces would have moved right in. what you might be seeing here is a claim that person X was captured (a lie), and then freed (also a lie).
