Sylvester Stallone was detained for hours on arrival at Sydney Airport after officials found prohibited imports in his luggage and that of his entourage, media reported Saturday.
Australian Customs Service national investigations manager Richard Janeczko did not say what the items were or whose luggage among Stallone's party they were found in during a routine screening late Friday.
"As a result of having their luggage x-rayed, a number of prohibited items were seized by Customs," Janeczko told Ten Network television news. "Mr. Stallone was allowed to continue with his party and our investigations are continuing." He gave no other details.
Stallone emerged from the airport hours after his fellow passengers and signed autographs for fans, Ten reported. He declined to comment on the incident.
Stallone is in Australia to promote his movies "Rocky Balboa."

Be accused of Groping In Japan - Go Straight To Jail
Masuo Kamiyama
Toei-affiliated theaters around Japan are currently showing a controversial film entitled "Even then, I swear I didn't do it." Directed by Masayuki Suo, the movie is based on the true story of a 26-year-old man, accused by a high school girl of groping her on a packed rush-hour train, who went through a living hell.
"Since I saw it, I've been afraid to get on a train," a fortyish salaryman confides to Asahi Geino.
In Japan, it seems, those suspected of "chikanery" are considered guilty until proved innocent. Which might be difficult to do: After all, you were there, your hands were free to roam, and any potential witnesses either had their eyes glued to their cell phone screens or were in cloud cuckoo manga land.
In the abovementioned movie, a prosecutor offered the accused a plea bargain. "If you admit your action unequivocally, you'll be fined. No different from a traffic violation." But the man smelled a trap and stuck to his guns, insisting, nope, he'd never touched her.
"It's no easy task to prove one's innocence," says journalist Masaki Ikegami. "If the case goes to court, the prosecution's rate for successful guilty convictions is running 99.9 percent.
"It's assumed that women who are willing to admit to the shame of having been groped are to be completely believed, as far as identifying their assailant," he adds.
So to keep its readers out of trouble, Asahi Geino provides what might very well be the most comprehensive advisory ever published on how to avoid being falsely accused of groping.
- Get an early start. If possible, depart from the first station on the line. Considering the extra outlay to purchase a reserved seat ticket.
- Be especially careful if you commute on express trains with long intervals between stops.
- If you're standing, grasp the strap with both hands, so they are visible to everyone in your proximity.
- Turn your back towards women standing close by.
- If you happen to bump against a woman, say "Pardon me" in a voice loud enough to be heard by other passengers and change your position.
- Under no circumstances should you stand beside girls of middle school age.
- Apologize promptly and profusely for any physical contacts with a woman, even arm contact.
- Chew gum or suck on bad breath mints -- bad breath tends to annoy people.
- It's dangerous to tap out messages on cell phones as some women may suspect a man is using the built-in camera to surreptitiously take her photo.
If accused of groping, by the way, you may think your privacy is sacrosanct, don't. The items you keep at home may cause suspicion to harden into certainty.
"After you're arrested, if you continue to deny it, it's common for the police to obtain a warrant to search your residence," says a former suspect. "If you're found in possession of porn, and particularly videos with groping scenes, this will almost certainly prejudice the court unfavorably."
Likewise, Asahi Geino advises, you don't want to be caught with a video camera or SM paraphernalia such as handcuffs in your briefcase. If these items are found on your person, you might as well start looking for an interior decorator for your cell.
Furthermore, don't expect railway company staff to be sympathetic.
"If we get a complaint from a woman, our policy is to turn the man over to the police, no ands, ifs or buts," says a station employee.
"All you can do is keep a cool head and keep maintaining your innocence," the magazine advises.
If it does get as far as a police interrogation, it is absolutely essential that you to go over every minute nuance in the police report before signing it.
For example, if you concede that you "might possibly have come into contact," with the injured party, this can be construed as your having admitted you "touched her," and turned against you at the trial.
One of the few defense techniques if you are accused is to insist on a forensic examination of fibers. If you're found to be "clean," this can be used by your attorney as evidence of your innocence. It makes sense look for a criminal attorney who has experience at repudiating such charges.
Finally, if you do maintain your innocence, be prepared for a long, drawn-out ordeal. It took Takashi Yatabe, the model for the book about the plight of another accused groper, two years before his innocence was finally confirmed. That included three months in jail before the prosecutor decided to file charges
So remember Asahi Geino's advice: to avoid accusations of groping, forewarned is forearmed.
Sunnis Vs Shi'a - Divided on Iran?
AP
The Sunnis say, "We told you so." The Shi'ites say, "Look who's talking." Iraq's leaders are divided along sectarian lines on almost every issue, big and small, so it should come as no surprise that the two sides have totally different views on the latest U.S. accusations about Iran supplying arms and know-how to Iraqi militias.
The accusations were welcomed by Sunni politicians, who have long maintained that Tehran supports Shi'a death squads and militias. "We diagnosed this problem a long time ago," Salim al-Jabouri, a prominent Sunni member of Iraq's parliament, told TIME. "It was expected that the Americans would come to the same conclusion."
But Shi'a politicians, who make up the largest block of the parliament and have close ties to Tehran, dismissed U.S. claims as propaganda by a Bush Administration seeking to deflect blame for the American military's failure to curb the growing violence in Iraq. Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has maintained a studied silence; Ali al-Dabbagh, his official spokesman, told TIME the government has no comment on the latest accusations. But an official in the Prime Minister's office questioned the credibility of U.S. intelligence, pointing to recent reports of evidence-fudging at the Pentagon in the lead-up to the invasion of Iraq. "They need a scapegoat, so they conveniently point to their old enemy, Iran," said the official, who asked not to be named because he is not authorized to talk to the media. "But these days American intelligence is a discredited commodity. Who can believe them?"
Maliki's own Dawa Party has close ties to Iran and has in the past deflected questions about Iran's support for the Shi'a militias, instead fingering Iraq's Sunni neighbors — Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Jordan — for aiding terrorist groups. "We don't deny that Iran has an interest in Iraq, and that is a matter of concern," said Abu Firas al-Saedi, a senior Dawa leader. "But the real question is: 'Why are the Arab states allowing terrorists to enter Iraq through their borders, and why are they financing them?'" That sentiment was echoed by parliamentarian Falah Shansal, from the Shi'a bloc of radical cleric Moqtada al-Sadr. "There are groups in Saudi Arabia who finance terrorism in Iraq," he said. "Why are the Americans not talking about this?"
Some Shi'a leaders acknowledge that Iran may be meddling in Iraqi affairs, but say the solution lies in diplomacy. Washington's aggressive finger-pointing, they say, can only antagonize the Iranians further, and hurt Iraq's interests. "To end the violence, Iraq needs the help of all its neighbors, and we have to be very diplomatic about how we approach them," Shansal said.

2 Images of UK Letter Bombing Released
Police have released pictures showing two of a series of letter bombs sent to UK businesses.
One is of a bomb which was intercepted while the other image is of a device after it had detonated.
Officers are probing a total of seven mail bomb attacks on businesses since 18 January. Three took place this week.
A 48-year-old man who phoned a live radio show claiming to have sent one of the bombs has been arrested and detained under the Mental Health Act.
The man "confessed" to sending a bomb to accountancy firm Vantis in Berkshire after calling BBC Radio 2's The Jeremy Vine Show.
He was not allowed on to the live show and the police were contacted immediately.
Police are still checking for activist links to all the letters, the latest of which was sent to the DVLA in Swansea on Wednesday.
Anton Setchell, the police's national co-ordinator for domestic extremism, said the investigation - codenamed Operation Hansel - was continuing at a "very fast pace" and "progressing well".
He described the arrest as a "significant development".
He added that the pictures of the mail bombs had been edited to hide identifying features on the packages - doing so, he said, was "essential" so as to not compromise the investigation.
"The focus of my investigation remains broad," he said.
"I continue to investigate leads that point towards animal rights extremism but equally I am focused in several other areas."
'Animal rights links'
The BBC has also learned that the name of a second animal rights activist was found on one of the bombs, delivered to LGC Forensics, in Culham, Oxfordshire, on 18 January but this failed to explode.
Another device carried the name of jailed protester Barry Horne who died on hunger strike in 2001.
Thames Valley Police told BBC Radio's Five Live the LGC Forensics letter included the name of a "prominent animal rights activist who is still living".
Police said the name was written on the envelope and that there were strong links between the first three letter bombs received and animal rights activists.
Letters were received on 18 January, by LGC Forensics and by Orchid Cellmark, in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, which injured one woman.
A third letter bomb, which failed to detonate, was delivered to Forensic Science Services in Chelmsley Wood, Solihull.
The Orchid Cellmark bomb contained the words "Dr Barry Horne RIP".
Mr Horne, who was not a doctor, had been sentenced to 18 years for planting bombs.
On Monday, a bomb sent to the London offices of Capita, responsible for the congestion charging system, causing minor injuries to a female employee.
The next day a package exploded at the Berkshire offices of Vantis, an accountancy firm linked to Speed Check Services, in Camberley, Surrey, the provider of digital speed cameras to the police.
On Wednesday, four workers were injured when a parcel bomb exploded at the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority's main centre in Swansea.
Police are also investigating a letter bomb which injured 53-year-old Mike Wingfield at his home in Folkestone, Kent, on Saturday.
IRS: Firms can pay taxes for employees
Companies can voluntarily pay the additional taxes rank-and-file workers face because they were issued backdated stock options, the IRS said Thursday.The Internal Revenue Service initiative affects the additional 20 percent tax and any interest employees would owe after exercising backdated stock options. The IRS said its program would help employees who might be unaware that they held backdated stock options.
Federal authorities have been investigating whether companies have backdated the exercise price of the options to a date when the price was lower, making them more lucrative for the holders. The government is scrutinizing the options practices of nearly 140 firms, and many others are conducting internal reviews of their stock option plans. IRS Commissioner Mark Everson said the plan doesn't extend to "the executives and insiders who were the principal beneficiaries of the backdating schemes."

Anna Nicole Smith died of unknown causes in a Florida hotel room
THE WASHINGTON POST
Anna Nicole Smith, a postmodern pinup for a tabloid age, died of unknown causes Thursday in a Florida hotel room, her sudden death at 39 delivering the same shock and uproar as the celebrity life she cultivated.
Smith was in her sixth-floor room at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Fla., when her private nurse called the operator for help, according to Seminole Police Chief Charlie Tiger, who said a bodyguard attempted CPR but could not revive her.
The former Playboy Playmate of the Year was rushed to a hospital, where she died at 2:49 p.m. The Broward County medical examiner planned to conduct an autopsy today.
Embroiled in an epic court feud over the hundreds of millions of dollars left behind by the octogenarian oil tycoon she married at 26 but never lived with, Smith cultivated a Marilyn Monroe image with her breathy singsong voice and va-va-voom figure. She pursued fame with a dignity-be-damned abandon, and her life unfolded in lurid headlines, tragedy and triumph in outsize measure — with so much legal drama that Smith was as likely to appear in a courtroom as a centerfold.
Her fight over the inheritance of J. Howard Marshall II took her to the U.S. Supreme Court in May. The paparazzi were waiting as Smith catwalked past in a form-fitting suit.
Smith's death came just five months after her 20-year-old son, Daniel, mysteriously died at her hospital bedside in the Bahamas, where Smith had given birth to a daughter whose paternity immediately became a matter of legal dispute.
Smith's attorney, Ron Rale, said that his client had not felt well in recent days, suffering from flu-like symptoms.
"I don't think anybody should have to endure what she's endured, having lost her son, people attacking her left and right," Rale said. "I felt like Anna was the underdog, having all of this thrust upon her. And she really just wanted to be a mom, and she was a good mom."
It was not explained why Smith, who had been hospitalized for drug and alcohol use previously, took her own nurse to the Indian gaming resort, where hotel sources described her as a regular guest.
Her baby, Dannielynn Hope, was not with her in Florida, police said, and was believed to still be in the Bahamas, where Smith set up housekeeping pending a formal inquiry into Daniel's death. An American medical examiner hired by the family said the death was an accident caused by the reaction of methadone and two antidepressants in his system.
An ex-boyfriend, Larry Birkhead, has filed a paternity suit claiming he fathered the girl, and a Los Angeles judge had ordered Smith to have the baby undergo a DNA test by Feb. 21.
Shortly after Dannielynn's birth, Smith identified her personal attorney, Howard K. Stern, as the father, and the two staged a white-dress "commitment ceremony" they later admitted was nonbinding. They celebrated with champagne and buckets of Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Her life had been one of extremes ever since Vickie Lynn Hogan escaped the high school dropout life of teen bride.
First married to a fry cook named Billy Smith in the small Texas town of Mexia, she later worked at Wal-Mart and waitressed at Red Lobster before heading to Houston to pursue her fortune as a topless dancer. It was as a stripper that she met Marshall, 63 years her senior.
While in Houston, a friend urged Smith to send photographs to Playboy, which featured her as 1993 Playmate of the Year, and the persona of Anna Nicole was not so much born as invented.
Smith became famous as a Guess jeans model, her curves and sleepy-eyed gaze conjuring the ghosts of Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield. There were soon other memorable photographs, as well: of Anna Nicole burying the wizened head of the wheelchair-bound Marshall in her ample bosom.
The unlikely pair married in 1994.
She was one of the original celebrity-train-wreck girls, undeniably beautiful but ultimately more famous for the calamities of her life than her accomplishments. Smith parlayed numerous Playboy videos showing her in fancy cars and bubble baths into B-movie roles, cameos in sitcoms and, later, her own reality TV show.
Playboy founder Hugh Hefner issued a statement describing her as "a dear friend who meant a great deal to the Playboy family and to me personally."
Marshall's death in 1995 triggered a long contest for the estate between Smith and her 60-year-old stepson, E. Pierce Marshall. At one point she was awarded $88 million by a federal court in California but she never saw the money. The case made its way to the Supreme Court, but the stepson died before there was a resolution.
Her weight fluctuated as drastically as her fortunes.
She lost a reported 69 pounds and became a spokeswoman for TrimSpa, a weight-loss supplement. On Wednesday news broke that Smith and the diet products company were named in a class-action suit alleging false or misleading marketing of a weight loss pill.
E! Entertainment Television gave her a program in 2002, "The Anna Nicole Show," one of the first so-called celebrity reality series.
Just before "The Anna Nicole Show" debuted, she touted it in a press release. "People won't be able to stop watching once they tune in," she said. "My life is a roller coaster, so hold on and enjoy the ride."
Why Britney is Not Lesbian
The "Toxic" singer allegedly liked to invite ladies back to the house to have lesbian orgies while she was married to Kevin Federline and is way into pornography. These are the accusations of Omar 'Iceman' Sharif, a friend of K-Fed's and a rap music producer in this week's In Touch Weekly. He tells the magazine, "Britney was into threesomes and girls. There was tons of porn in the house - but it was mostly Britney's."
Gina Orr, spokesman for Britney's record label Jive, has released a statement, saying: "It is not true."
Britney believes the reports were part of a smear campaign by Kevin to aid his custody battle for sons, Sean Preston, 16 months, and Jayden James, four months - which has since been settled amicably by both parties.
A source said: "This (was) all part of a plan to smear Britney. They are close to agreeing a divorce settlement - so this is a warning shot if he doesn't get what he wants."
Kevin's friend, rap music producer Omar 'Iceman' Sharif, lifted the lid on Britney's alleged sexual exploits to In Touch Weekly magazine.
He said: "Britney was into threesomes and girls. There was tons of porn in the house - but it was mostly Britney's."
Omar also claimed that Britney would host X-rated parties at her Malibu marital home.
He said: "They were friends of her who she would invite to her house and they would drink and party. They had their hands all over each other."
Another source said: "Sometimes it was three girls, and sometimes there were more like six. I heard about her being with girls at least 20 times while they were married."
Meanwhile, Spears' new romance has ended, according to her boyfriend's agent.
Brandi Lord told People magazine her client, model Isaac Cohen, had ended his relationship with Spears, but the split was "very amicable".
The couple, both 25, were first spotted together early last month, riding in a powerboat in California.
Their brief romance included a lavish weekend in Las Vegas, where they stayed in a $51,500-a-night villa.
"They're both busy with their careers," Lord said.
"She just got out of her marriage and she has two kids to take care of. Her plate is full, and the same with him."
She said the pair may remain friends.
"They were never getting married," Ms Lord said.
"They were having fun together."
Spears filed for divorce from rapper Kevin Federline in November.
It Takes A Bitch To Be Infamous
Could it be — a whole week gone past and Britney hasn’t taken her kids to a strip club, Paris has neither been spotted with a new multi-billionaire nor got into a fight with one of his ex-girlfriends and Lindsay Lohan hasn’t been hospitalised? Oh, wait…Okay, none of those things have happened, but it’s not as if the usual suspects have been keeping entirely out of trouble.
First up — naturally! — is Paris. What she has managed to do lately is accidentally break-up Misha Barton’s relationship, take Lindsay partying when she should be in rehab and infuriate the gay community. Slow week, then.

It Takes A Bitch To Be Infamous
Could it be — a whole week gone past and Britney hasn’t taken her kids to a strip club, Paris has neither been spotted with a new multi-billionaire nor got into a fight with one of his ex-girlfriends and Lindsay Lohan hasn’t been hospitalised? Oh, wait…
Okay, none of those things have happened, but it’s not as if the usual suspects have been keeping entirely out of trouble.
First up — naturally! — is Paris. What she has managed to do lately is accidentally break-up Misha Barton’s relationship, take Lindsay partying when she should be in rehab and infuriate the gay community. Slow week, then.
Paris’s sometime friend, other-times enemy Misha Barton has just ditched her boyfriend Whitestarr frontman Cisco Adler, because he turned up stark nude in pictures on that parisexposed.com site (much of the content of which the court has now ordered to be removed).
“They had a blow-up. She was furious,” says an insider. But, come on, Misha — who in LA hasn’t got some story from their past involving Paris and nudity? And I’d have thought the fact that Cisco was at one time ‘engaged’ to Kimberly Stewart was enough of a tip-off that the guy was a loon.
In other news — Lindsay Lohan is living up life in rehab. Not only does she leave the facility to work on her movie (after the producers threatened to sue if she wasn’t allowed out), she’s also been generally out and about on the town and clubbing with Paris. Yup, she’s clearly going to make this work.
Just a thought, Linds — perhaps Paris isn’t the very best rehab-chum. Let’s just take a teensy little think back and remember what hooking up with a Hilton did for Britney, shall we?
And, now, Paris has come under fire from yet another group — the leaders of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD). They’re none to thrilled about Paris’s repeated use of the term ‘f….t’ to refer to gay people. Ah, let’s just take a teensy little think back and remember what that word did for ‘Grey’s Anatomy’s Isaiah Washington, shall we?
The criticisms have come about because of newly-released footage of Hilton — also from the parisexposed.com site. Adding to the bonfire, is the fact that Paris has been shown referring to herself and sister Nicky as ‘n..gas’!
Says the President of GLAAD: “When Paris Hilton utters these words into a camera, it creates a permanent record that... she must bear responsibility for. These are not frivolous words, and to use them as if they are gives tacit sanction to the racism and homophobia they engender.”
“Hilton has an obligation to go on the record, explain herself, and publicly apologise to the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) and African-American communities and all those offended by these slurs.”
In my humble opinion, telling Paris not to be an offensive idiot is a lot like standing behind a donkey and asking it not to kick you in the head.
On to Britney! While she has indeed (to the best of my knowledge) not taken her boys to a stripclub, she has been dumped by her new man Isaac Cohen, poor woman.
According to the US’s ‘OK!’ mag, Isaac has been, “looking to get out of the relationship for a while”, because, “it was a bit much for him. There was a lot of drama — it was too much of a whirlwind.” A while? They were only together a month!
“He likes her. They had a good time together. He was doing his best to help her out — but there is only so much one person can do.” Translation: This is one ship I’m not going down with. Well, they’re plenty more men in Hollywood, Brit.
One who it seems she’ll have to strike off her list, though, is former boyfriend Justin Timberlake. Since his split with Cameron Diaz he’s been living up the single life — and keeping everyone thoroughly confused as to who he’s actually dating now, if anyone.
First there were those Scarlett Johansson rumours, then he was spotted getting very cosy with Jessica Biel after the Golden Globes and at the Sundance Film Festival — now, it seems, it’s back to Scarlett!
Word has it that Justin and Scarlett spent a weekend together in Miami, where they were seen out partying and then left together, holding hands, to go back to Timberlake’s hotel. Sounds like Justin isn’t quite ready to settle down into another relationship just yet — which is certainly one up on the usual Hollywood thing of instantly marrying someone else the second you break up with your partner.
Cameron Diaz doesn’t seem to have been throwing herself into the dating, or shagging, pool immediately post-Justin, but she hasn’t been idle.
She’s just bagged a colossal $3-million (that’s almost R21.5-million!) for one advert.
Of course, unlike Timberlake, she has stuck with Hollywood tradition and done this ad for the Japanese market only. US stars tend to shy away from doing commercials in America, which is seen as kind of slumming it, but are more than happy to cash in half a world away.
The ad features Cammie in an ultra-short bright-green dress and heels, chatting on her cellphone in New York City. So engrossed is she that she doesn’t notice a wild movie being shot all around her. Naturally, the point of this is that, um, this brand of mobile phone is — er — really engrossing? Hey, for that much money, I’d do many things even more nonsensical!
Finally, more news about Tinseltown break-ups…
Ryan Phillippe says that splitting from his wife of eight years Reese Witherspoon hasn’t been easy. “It's unfortunate when you have kids,” he admits, “but I signed up for this and have to deal with it. I don't read the magazines or watch the shows. It's hard when people follow me to my kid's school. This is the most difficult time in my life.”
Not much happier, I imagine, are ‘Van Wilder’ star Ryan Reynolds and Alanis Morisette, who’ve just announced that they’ve ended their engagement and gone their separate ways.
And then there’s Kylie Minogue, who hasn’t exactly had the easiest time of it in the last while. Adding insult to injury is the fact that when Olivier Martinez broke up with her it was reportedly over the phone. Classy, Olivier. Not to mention, he was spotted just hours later out having fun with a mystery brunette. Hopefully that was his sister, but I’m not counting on it…
Sharon Stone or Paris Hilton? Boyish glamour has edge
Suzi Hosfeld
Naples Sun Times
Do you prefer the girly-girl look of Paris Hilton or the womanly-strong look of, say, Sharon Stone? Well, girly is definitely over, as pink and frilly clothes are being replaced by a more graceful, womanly look. Elegant femininity is now being challenged by a contrasting element: boyish glamour.
Tiny jackets worn with skinny pants (Yes, they're still hot) are a current look, and as brocade takes over for lighter fabrics, the little soldier goes to fashion's front line. Naples fashion divas need not worry about anything too heavy for the weather. Even though it's still winter, designers are compensating with lighter versions of wool and brocade.
Girls looking like boys is hardly new in fashion. In fact, menswear styling goes back to Shakespeare's romantic heroines, and Marlene Dietrich, who oozed sex appeal in a tuxedo while drumming up excitement with the boys. Who could forget Katherine Hepburn - every liberated woman's style icon?
There is a difference today in the masculine style of clothing. Women are not trying for the androgynous, slouchy male trouser suit like Annie Hall wore. Now it's all about the line - slim, long and very sexy. Trousers can be long and lean or softly pleated and sexy. Jackets are not boxy, but lean and very slimming.
Balenciaga and Dior sent models down the runway in slim trousers with lacy white shirts spilling out from under lean jackets. Gucci's remake of the David Bowie pipe-cleaner-narrow suits made the 70's seem to jump forward three decades.
The graceful, womanly look is not necessarily built upon pants, although Yves Saint Laurent was the first designer to put trousers on women. Designer Stefano Pilati prefers skirts. His models strolled down the runways in speckled-tweed blouson jackets, teamed with grey felt skirts and a big bow at the neck; very feminine, while maintaining a menswear aesthetic. Naples fashionistas can create the same look with a simple pencil skirt, paired with a short-sleeved blouse that ties at the neck, coordinated with a pair of high-heeled pumps and Louis Vuitton purse, and you're off!
Chunky knits are another favorite of designers this season. Just when men have finally accepted that pink, fine-gauge cashmere is cool, women are grabbing at hunky knits that guys once wore on weekends. Lightweight knits are perfect for Naples, and are great when the air turns chilly. Local stores, like Banana Republic and Saks, are filled with great knits.
The trench coat is still having its fashion moment. But when you see what Burberry's Christopher Bailey can do with a belted coat - making it lighter and smaller or as tough as a quilted handbag in leather, you realize there is still mileage in this classic.
Elsewhere, the mannish touch came as car-coats and maxi-coats were sent out with touches of toughness. Boldly checked wool brings back masculine tailoring that mirrors the 1960's. That is just where Balenciga's Nicholas Ghesquiere looked when he was researching the archives and came up with the jackets and bell-shaped skirts and helmet hats that he created. Like all tweedy looks, his needed a bit of subversion, so thick hose and club-sandwich-sized platform shoes were the current take. Although only for the bravest of fashion divas, the rest of us can remake the look with ease.
The message this season; it's time to lay down the girl stuff and get tough!

Fear Grip Britons Over Series of letter Bomb Explosions
BRITISH police issued a public warning overnight after the latest in a series of letter bombs took the number of people injured to seven in five days, fuelling fears of a concerted bombing campaign.
Both Prime Minister Tony Blair and Home Secretary John Reid voiced concern over the attacks - several of which have targeted motoring-related firms - after the latest incident left three people injured in south Wales.
"Naturally, these incidents are worrying ... It is important that we allow police to get on with their investigation without undue speculation," Mr Reid said, in his first comments on the blasts.
The Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) said there had been seven incidents in the last three weeks, and warned that the public must be prepared for the risk that there will be more.
"I am appealing today for companies, organisations and individuals to take extra care when handling mail," said Assistant Chief Constable Anton Setchell, ACPO's national coordinator for domestic extremism.
"The packages received so far have caused minor injuries, but could have been more serious," he said.
In the latest blast, three people were injured at the government's Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) in Swansea, south Wales, police said.
Initially only one person was reported hurt.
That followed blasts on Tuesday in London, at a firm dealing with London's controversial congestion charge, and on Wednesday at a firm west of London which reportedly manages speeding fines. It also emerged that a previously-unreported device injured a householder in Folkestone, Kent, on Sunday.
Before that, there were three other incidents last month in Birmingham and Oxfordshire, Chief Constable Setchell said, adding that the name of a dead animal rights campaigner was found on one of the devices.
Police have made no formal link between the blasts, but the British press has speculated about the possibility of a disgruntled motorist targeting authorities who control the roads in Britain.
One well-known campaigner against speeding fines, the self-styled "Captain Gatso" of Motorists against Detection (MAD), said overnight he did not condone letter bombs, but understood drivers' anger.
He cited the case of councils charging hundreds of pounds for residents' parking permits, a situation particularly common in London.
"Before you've even turned the keys, they're hammering you in your vehicle," said Gatso, whose name comes from a common make of roadside speed camera.
"So something's got to give," he said, while adding that he "completely" condemned the bombings.
Britain has been on high alert since July 2005 suicide bombings which killed 56 people in London. There is no suggestion that the latest bombings - all of them relatively small - have any links with Islamic extremism.
Prime Minister Tony Blair, asked about the latest blast at his weekly question-and-answer session in Parliament, said: "We are looking and investigating very closely the incident concerned.
"Can I express my sympathy to all those people who have been caught up in those incidents," he said. "As soon as we have some news that we can properly give .. then we will do so."
Police chief Setchell said the devices were more like fireworks than bombs, designed to shock rather than to seriously maim or kill.
But he said police are nonetheless taking them very seriously.
"We have had no contact from any group or organisation claiming any responsibility or setting out their motivations," he said. "I want to keep a completely open mind about the motivations behind these packages."

Four found guilty in tax fraud scam
Journal Staff Writer
Now that you have your W-2s in hand, here’s a reminder about what happens if you cheat on your taxes or come up with a scheme to get others to do so.
Four people have been found guilty of multiple counts of filing or causing false claims for refunds to be filed with the IRS. They were the promoters and recruiters for a scheme, explained United States Attorney Maxwell Wood for the Middle District of Georgia, that recruited taxpayers to file false amended tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service. Subsequently, the taxpayers would claim tax refunds to which they were not entitled ranging from $33,913 up to $89,612.
Joseph Jordan Sr., of Warner Robins, Eretta Nelson, formerly of Fort Valley, Ozee Rogers Sr., of Macon and Hewis Cross of Leesburg, were convicted following a jury trial before the Honorable Judge C. Ashley Royal of conspiracy to file false claims for refunds with the Internal Revenue Service, and with multiple counts of filing or causing false claims for refunds to be filed with the IRS.
Wood said in a press release, the maximum penalties for the conspiracy charge is 10 years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine, and the maximum penalties for each violation of filing false claims is five years imprisonment. Four other defendants – Ernest T. Butts, Calvin A. McCaskill, and Lola C. Brokemond – were found not guilty.
The recruited taxpayers were told by the defendants that the IRS secretly places taxes paid by individual taxpayers into interest bearing accounts, and that the defendants had access to inside information relating to how these funds could be obtained through the filing of amended tax returns claiming refunds, Wood explained.
Evidence at trial showed that at least 112 of these false claims were filed with the IRS, and that 10 refunds were actually paid before the scheme was stopped by the IRS.
The recruited taxpayers were also scammed, being required to pay one or more of the defendants a document preparation fee ranging from $200 up to $1,500. They were also required to sign a contract or agree to pay one or more of the defendants a percentage (ranging from 10 to 25 percent) of any refund actually received from the IRS resulting from the false claims.
Wood said sentencing for Jordan, Nelson, Rogers, and Cross would be at a date and time to be scheduled by the court.
The case was investigated by agents of the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigations and prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorneys Paul McCommon and George Christian.
Sphere: Related ContentFamous female golfer in nude-photo scandal?
While many readers are busy trolling the internet for nude pictures of female golfer Michelle Wie all readers needed to do was buy a copy of a weekly magazine in Japan, slice open the edges of the sealed pages, and viola -- a photo of the mystery sportswoman - rumored to be a female golfer - in the flesh, albeit with her face blurred.The woman was indeed completely naked, facing the camera while flashing the peace sign with both hands. According to Flash, as well as Asahi Geino, which also ran the photo, it had been circulated by a former boyfriend and taken in the bathroom of a love hotel.
So, during the following several days, readers were left to wonder -- who was this obviously young and very fit woman. Figure skater Miki Ando sprang to many people's minds. Or maybe skier Aiko Uemura?

Indianapolis Colts Fans Take Off With Hopes Of Victory
Packing predictions of warmer weather and a Colts blowout, a group of 250 Indianapolis Colts fans flying with the Ambassadair travel club left chilly Indianapolis International Airport early today for a long Super Bowl weekend in Florida.Dave Cwi and his wife, Cindy, Indianapolis, prepare to board a charter flight for Florida and the Super Bowl. - CHARLIE NYE / The Star
Departing at 8:30 a.m., they were among the first of many Colts fans decked out in the team's blue colors to head south today. Most hotels in the Miami area and many of the Super Bowl packages offered to fans required three-night minimum stays, Friday through Sunday.
"We were able to come up with about 82 tickets from brokers we've worked with through the year and put together some packages for our members," said Mike Grueninger, president of Grueninger Tours, which operates Ambassadair
Ambassadair had offered two packages on a first-come, first-served basis for its members: $5,599 (per person, double occupancy) with ticket and $1,699 without.
Sophia Casey, Indianapolis, bought the game ticket package, and said "It's all worth it. It's the chance of a lifetime"
The longtime Colts fan predicted a 27-3 Colts victory. "We want a blowout!"
Dave and Cindy Cwi, Indianapolis, are Colts season ticket holders, but were not fortunate enough to be drawn in the team's lottery for Super Bowl tickets.
Cindy Cwi said they would be "taking advantage of the package and visiting some friends in Fort Myers"
Aussie Mick Peppard came all the way from Melbourne to take his fiancée Joan Slusser of Columbus, Ind. to the game. Peppard had been in the states over the holidays when the Colts were "kind of falling apart" said Slusser. "He told me if the Colts made it to the Super Bowl, he would take me. Be careful of what you wish for."
When asked if the wedding date had been set joked that halftime entertainer Prince would conduct the rites.
Slusser predicted a 31-13 Colts win, while Preppard kept it closer at 17-10.
It appeared that 9-year-old Duncan Bjerke, Indianapolis, was the youngest on the trip,
"Nobody believed he was going," said his mother Janet Bjerke, who predicted at 35-14 victory for the Colts.
"His (school) bus driver asked him to bring back a photo of himself with Peyton Manning to prove it," Janet Bjerke said.
"I get goose bumps just thinking about it. That may be just the cold."
Each Ambassadair package included roundtrip airfare from Indy to Fort Myers, three nights lodging at the Naples Grande Resort /&/amp; Club, a pre-game party cruising coastal Miami on the Sir Winston Luxury Yacht (with open bar and lunch) and transportation to the game. Miami, on Florida's east coast, is approximately a 2-hour drive from Naples, on the west coast.

'Hilton is the best for romps'
PARIS HILTON is better in bed than KIMBERLY STEWART and LINDSAY LOHAN – with TARA REID way behind in last place.So says Joe Francis – the owner of American adult website and DVD company Girls Gone Wild – who has dated all four Hollywood babes.
Joe revealed: “Paris is better in the sack than anyone else. She is amazing in bed.
“Paris also gives the best oral sex. Yes, she's better at it than Lindsay Lohan!”
The multi-millionaire, who claims to have slept with hundreds of women, appears in raunchy scenes with the Simple Life star on an X-rated video on website Parisexposed.com, which she is currently trying to shut down.
But while Joe also dislikes the site, he claims the videos are something she should be proud of, adding: "Paris was at her best at oral sex when she was 22-years-old. If you look at the tapes on that site, that's when she was the greatest."
Sadly while Paris and “awesome” Kimberly get a big thumbs up from Joe, he wasn’t so kind about Tara.
In the printable extracts from his chat with US shock radio jock Howard Stern, Joe claims: "Tara is the worst in bed. I love Tara, but, honestly, she pretty much lays there.
"And I had sex with her a lot.”
