England may have lost their first autumn international but Jonny Wilkinson was Herculean on his return Jonny Wilkinson spoke for so long in answer to Sky's post-match questions that he almost wrecked Rupert Murdoch's evening schedules.

As it stands now, I may have to retract what I've been saying about Battleship . Peter Berg is attached to direct the board game movie and he said a couple months ago what a big Navy buff he is and how he has this vision of a great big non-historical WWII naval battle film, and that would be fantastic. Or could be; I should soften my certitude. Anyway, Berg updated his stance since latching on to...

While some pro-lifers are happy about that, others fear the passage of that amendment will clear the way for pro-life Democrats to support the main health bill, thus ensuring passage. Some of the lefties in the Dem party have said they wouldn't support the...
