`Sleep
till noon, drink beer, vote Kerry', says Michael Moore
Washington:
Fahrenheit 9/11 director Michael Moore, it seems, has
no intention of backing off from his long-cherished campaign
to dislodge President George W Bush from office. Seen as
the leader of Bush-haters everywhere, Moore's mantra these
days is aptly reflected in his latest slogan "Sleep till
noon, drink beer, vote Kerry". Moore is not running for
office, but his taking part in what he has termed as the
"Slacker Uprising Tour" to motivate couch potatoes like
him, the apolitical apathetic and simply lethargic to rouse
themselves and vote for Democratic presidential candidate
John Kerry early next month. "Sleep till noon, drink beer,
vote Kerry," may not be the most stirring of action plans
for election day but the slogan went down well with thousands
of Moore's fans in Toledo when he tried it out on them on
Monday night. "If George Bush could see this now," Moore
cried as the audience stamped its feet and whooped approval
at his entry. "It's all over." "Don't come to Toledo, Mr
Bush," he continued, to even louder cheers. "This will really
depress you. Oh, man!," the Telegraph quoted the film director
as saying. "George Bush should pray that all that happens
to him and his cronies in the next week is defeat, because
if there were any justice in this world, they would be led
away in handcuffs," he added as a climax.

London:
Film actress Gwyneth Paltrow and her singer hubby Chris
Martin are getting a row of full-grown trees planted around
their new London home in a bid to protect any invasion to
their privacy. The celebrity couple, who are proud parents
of their few months old daughter Apple, are making sure
that there are huge plants and bushes at the back of their
home so that there are no nosey fans and paparazzi spying
on their abode. "Putting in the trees will cost tens of
thousands of dollars and will be a very delicate operation,
but Gwyneth and Chris are determined to be as secluded as
possible from gawpers," Britain's Sunday Telegraph newspaper
quoted an insider as saying. "They have a lovely garden,
which will be great for baby Apple, but it is quite exposed.
They also use the back entrance more than the front. This
measure will provide instant protection," the insider added.
The 'Shakespeare In Love' beauty and the 'Coldplay' frontman
are also having a 5 feet wall built around the house complete
with iron gates, and all the renovations are expected to
cost them approximately 500,000 pounds.

Bush-backing
costs Arnie his 'Terminator' statue (Go
To Top)
London:
Backing President Bush in the oncoming elections has
proved to be quite a costly decision for the Californian
governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, as the residents of his
native Austrian town of Graz are so angry with him that
they have decided to withdraw their plans of constructing
an 80 ft statue of his. The design for the statue, which
was to resemble Arnie's iconic 'Terminator' character, had
been unveiled last year and 3.5 million pounds had been
collected for the project, reports Ananova. His fans are
reportedly so irked that he is supporting the Iraq war which
was Bush's initiative, that they are also asking the local
authorities to rename the football stadium that has been
named after him and take back the honorary ring that had
been gifted to him by the town. "Yes, the project has been
shelved because it no longer has the backing among the population
that it had at the start when he was elected. I think I
must be the only one in this town that still wants the project
to go ahead," the report quoted the project manager Herwig
Hoeller as saying.
