Student Loan Revamp

Legislation designed to complete work on a health-care overhaul will include a House measure to revamp the college student loan program, a top Democrat said.Source: Yahoo“This is critical to passing this in the caucus,” California Representative George Miller, one of the leaders of the health-care effort and chairman of the House Education and Labor Committee, said today. “People have made it very clear they want to take this home.”The measure would expand the government’s role by allowing it to provide new college loans directly while ending federal guarantees and subsidies to lenders such as SLM Corp., commonly known as Sallie Mae. That’s caused the plan to draw resistance from senators whose states are home to private lenders.The education provision would be part of a so-called reconciliation package designed to make changes to a Senate health-care bill passed in December. President Barack Obama is asking the House to approve the original Senate bill as well as the bill

Voice Behind New ‘Shrek’ Villain

aliaswn — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 06:35:16 +0000

When the first Shrek hit the silver screen in 2001, it wowed audiences with its fairy-tale storyline, its witty pop culture asides, and its impressive cast of voice actors: Mike Myers played the titular ogre; with Cameron Diaz as Fiona, his love interest; and Eddie Murphy as his wise-cracking donkey sidekick. In the two subsequent Shrek movies, other actors came on board to lend their talent and star power to the franchise — Antonio Banderas, Justin Timberlake, even Larry King.And for the latest and last movie in the franchise — “Shrek Forever After” — Myers and the gang returns along with new A-list talent, like Megan Fox who plays “The Princess in the Tower.” But for the movie’s chief bad guy, the silken-tongued Rumpelstiltskin, Dreamworks hired the voice talent of Walt Dohrn.Who?Unlike much of rest of the cast, Dohrn doesn’t regularly walk the red carpet or make appearances on Letterman. Instead, he’s a writer and animator who started out working on “SpongeBob SquarePants” before

Green Zone

In 2003 the US military entered Baghdad. Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller (Matt Damon) is there searching for weapons of mass destruction. He’s one of the good guys. He tells us again and again, “I’m here to save lives.” We know why Roy Miller is in Iraq, but the question Green Zone asks is, why is the US military there?Green Zone was advertised as Jason Bourne in Iraq. It’s not. Yes it has Matt Damon, and yes it’s directed by Paul Greengrass (The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum), but ChiefWarrant Officer Roy Miller isn’t an international super-spy, he’s a soldier. He can’t kill eight people with his bare hands and he can’t disappear into a crowd.Instead, Roy Miller wants to know why he’s been getting bad intelligence. The Pentagon tells him where to look for weapons of mass destruction, and they’re wrong every time. Finding an ally in CIA Agent Martin Brown, Miller investigates further; tracking down the top-secret source, code-named Magellan, who’s be

Nobel Peace Prize: Does It Have A Chance?

aliaswn — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 06:34:10 +0000

At first, we suspected this was all a joke. And in the end, it may wind up being exactly that. But right now, there’s a real possibility that the Internet could be nominated to wind the next Nobel Peace Prize. You may be chuckling right now, but don’t be surprised if this idea doesn’t gain a huge amount of traction. There’s seems to be quite a bit of political discord going on right now, and individuals may end liking the idea of supporting an entity rather than a human, and have you ever met someone who actually despised the Internet? Is that even possible?A new website has been established to rally Mr. Internet as the lead contender for the next Prize, with “Internet For Peace” urging visitors to look at all of the benefits that that Internet has and get behind the idea of supporting it. Here’s the full spill of why the World Wide Web deserves the next Nobel Peace award:We have finally realized that the Internet is much more than a network of computers.It is an endless web of people.

She kissed a girl and she liked it

aliaswn — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 06:33:16 +0000

The gossip rags were buzzing yesterday about the Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning kiss in “The Runaways.” Like, oh my gosh: The “Twilight” actress thought smooching her then-15-year-old costar was “cool” — she kissed a girl and she liked it, maybe? — and her “lips are sealed” about how her girl-on-girl lip-lock measured up to (giggle) snogging Robert Pattinson and, and, and … she wasn’t allowed to “grope” Fanning because of legal restrictions. Amid all this feverish, titillating coverage, that last bit was overlooked. Legal restrictions, you say? For an underage make-out scene? For some clarity, I called Amy Adler, a law professor at New York University who has extensively studied child pornography law.”The basic definition of child pornography is a photo or a film of a child under 18 engaging in sexual conduct,” Adler explains. “Sexual conduct can mean a range of things, including actual sex acts but it also means lascivious exhibition of the genitals. That in turn is a standard th

Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning ‘Really Excited’ About ‘Eclipse’ Trailer

On Thursday night at the Cinerama Dome, Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning arrived to greet shrieking fans and unveil their new rock and roll biopic “The Runaways.” As it turns out, that was their second major release of the day.Earlier in the afternoon, the first official trailer for “Eclipse” was leaked, whipping Twilighters into a frenzy as they analyzed the footage frame-by-frame, looking for clues about the eagerly anticipated June 30 installment of the franchise. And although Kristen was there to talk about Joan rather than Bella, and Dakota was in Cherie mode rather than channeling Jane, both found it hard to suppress their excitement.”Yeah, I saw it,” KStew said of the dazzling 90-second first look at the third “Twilight” movie. “It’s really fast and it’s really quick.”While millions of people were glimpsing the footage over and over again (in L.A., the tease for the 11 o’clock news even featured it), Fanning sheepishly admitted that she was just happy she had made the clip.”Ye
