LOS ANGELES – Just 10 weeks after her star-studded, made-for-TV wedding, reality starlet Kim Kardashian filed for divorce Monday from NBA player Kris Humphries, citing irreconcilable differences.

The filing in Los Angeles County Superior Court provided few details, other than to state the couple have a prenuptial agreement that will dictate how they divide up their assets. Kardashian is asking that both sides pay their own attorneys' costs and that a judge terminate Humphries' rights to spousal support. Kardashian, 31, and Humphries, 26, were wed Aug. 20 at a lavish private estate near Santa Barbara, Calif. It was the first marriage for Humphries, who last played for the NBA's New Jersey Nets, and the second for Kardashian, who was married to music producer Damon Thomas from 2000 to 2004.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration on Monday cut off funding for the U.N. cultural agency, after its member countries defied an American warning and approved a Palestinian bid for full membership in the body.

The lopsided vote to admit Palestine as a member of UNESCO, which only the United States and 13 other countries opposed, triggered a long-standing congressional ban on U.S. funding to U.N. bodies that recognize Palestine as a state before an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal is reached. The State Department said a $60 million payment to UNESCO scheduled for November would not be made as a result, and U.S. officials warned of a “cascade” effect at other U.N. bodies that might follow UNESCO’s lead. Corrections? “Today’s vote by the member states of UNESCO to admit Palestine as a member is regrettable, premature, and undermines our shared goal of a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in the Middle East,” State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland told reporters. She said the U.S. remained committed to UNESCO and its goals, which include the promotion of science, education and culture, and that the administration would work with Congress to preserve U.S. interests and influence in the body.

0 comments, 0 called-out + Comment now + Comment now (Kitco News) - Comex December gold futures are trading solidly lower Monday morning, pressured by a sharp rebound in the U.S. dollar index following heavy central bank intervention from the Bank of Japan against the yen. The move by the BOJ boosted the greenback, which in turn put downside price pressure on most commodity markets, including the precious metals. December gold last traded down $22.50 at $1,724.70 an ounce. Spot gold last traded down $21.90 an ounce at $1,722.25. December Comex silver last traded down $0.913 at $34.375 an ounce.

The Bank of Japan’s move Monday to devalue the yen was not a big surprise to the market place. However, the intervention was a record-large one day move by the BOJ, which reportedly sold 7 trillion yen on the FOREX market. That boosted the U.S. dollar index and put downside pressure on the Euro currency.

GREATER NOIDA: What does a champion look like? Their posters and cutouts give them a larger-than-life feel and make them appear big, confident, perhaps slightly arrogant too. In real life it's a different story - at least for reigning speed king Sebastian Vettel. He sauntered in wearing the same jersey as several other Red Bull crew members and went virtually unnoticed until he smiled and extended his hand.

Vettel is a slight man, a boy almost, with an easy gait and an easier smile. Not quite the highly-motivated, highly-competitive and highly-skilled driver one expects. We say so. "So, what does a champ look like?" he shoots back. It leaves us groping for an answer. No, not quite that, but... we fumble. "Dhanyavad," he says with a big smile in perfect Hindi, putting us at ease. Besides, he's probably looking to emulate his idol Michael Schumacher's record of winning 13 races in a year. Vettel has already won 10. If he wins the Delhi, Abu Dhabi and Brazil races, he would have equalled the feat.

BEIJING – China plans to limit reality TV shows and other light fare shown on satellite television stations as part of a drive to wrest back Communist Party control over cultural industries that have fueled more independent viewpoints.

The order from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television refers to shows that are vulgar or "overly entertaining." It singles out programs dealing with marital troubles and matchmaking, talent shows, game shows, variety shows, talk shows and reality programming. The country's 34 satellite TV stations must largely phase out such shows by next year, to be replaced with news and cultural programming. The order also bans viewership surveys and the use of ratings as the sole criteria for whether to broadcast a particular show.

US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton acknowledged Friday that US-Pakistani ties are now badly strained. The US raid that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan in May is one reason.

On Friday, Clinton met alone with Pakistani President President Asif Ali Zardari and Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar, who used a joint news conference to deny that Pakistan shelters or supports a particularly lethal wing of the Taliban, an issue at the heart of the talks with the Americans.

T.I. is hoping to pick up where he left off, both with his community service and his career. He was released from a halfway house last month following an 11-month stint in a prison in Arkansas. He landed there after he was caught with drugs in California, just a few months after almost a year of incarceration for trying to buy automatic weapons and silencers. Civil rights leader Andrew Young, who has been a mentor to T.I., said despite the rapper's rap sheet, he has the potential to positively influence this hip-hop driven generation in a similar way that Martin Luther King Jr. did during the civil rights movement.

Boehner, of Ohio, voiced “grave concerns” the measure may trigger a trade war. Supporters of the sanctions say they are sending China a message, whether the legislation becomes law or not. Their votes also might pay domestic political dividends.

After posting a challenging 300 for seven, India shot out England for 174 runs in 36.1 overs to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series. "It was an important toss to win. We saw at the end that the ball kept low. But credit to India. They outplayed us in all departments today," Cook said after the match. India's newest spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin (3-35) and Ravindra Jadeja (3-34) sizzled in the slow conditions, sharing six wickets between them and Cook said tackling the tweakers will be a challenge for his batsmen in the series.

NEW YORK (AP) — The 11-year prison sentence for a wealthy hedge fund founder convicted of insider trading charges set a record for its length, but still left the government well short of the two-decade-long prison sentence it had sought to send a stern message to Wall Street.

Raj Rajaratnam, 54, left federal court in Manhattan on Thursday after U.S. District Judge Richard J. Holwell announced a sentence that was four years below a Probation Department recommendation and well short of the government's request that the Galleon Group founder serve as much as 24 1/2 years.

Holwell credited Rajaratnam for acts of charity and cited his diabetes and need for a kidney transplant as reasons for leniency. "Given the role Mr. Rajaratnam played in this scheme, many people could criticize the sentence as being too lenient," said Robert Mintz, a former federal prosecutor who heads the white collar defense group at the firm McCarter & English.

LOS ANGELES – Dr. Conrad Murray's use of a cocktail of drugs on Michael Jackson as he struggled to fall asleep on the day he died was a "recipe for disaster" and ultimately caused his death, a UCLA sleep therapy expert testified Thursday.

LOS ANGELES – Experts repeatedly told jurors that Michael Jackson's doctor acted with "gross negligence" throughout his treatment of the pop superstar, a theme that will likely be repeated as prosecutors near the end of their involuntary manslaughter case against the physician.

The conclusion of the prosecution's case, which may come on Thursday but more likely will extend into next week, brings defense attorneys a step closer to revealing how they will counter damaging evidence presented through more than 30 witnesses so far. The defense case shifted Wednesday when an attorney for Dr. Conrad Murray revealed he was abandoning the theory that Jackson swallowed the fatal dose of the anesthetic propofol. The Houston-based cardiologist has pleaded not guilty, and his attorneys have repeatedly told jurors they will show Jackson self-administered either the anesthetic or the sedative lorazepam without Murray's knowledge. They had invested months before the trial on the theory that Jackson somehow drank propofol and caused his own death.

The CIA spy agency as well as voice of America keep blasting “news” about revolutions, uprisings, freedom movement in Libya, death of people in Syria, etc, but now these nasty networks refuse to give enough space for the protests across the USA against the dictatorial and authoritarian Obama regime committed to the welfare of the multinational corporations and rich, and refuse to tax them but cause more and more burden on the society. No Wall Street executives have gone to jail despite the rampant corruption. The demonstrations are driven by a profound anger over unprecedented levels of social inequality as, three years after the financial meltdown on Wall Street, unemployment and declining wages persist and deepen alongside record profits and increasing wealth for the top one percent. With anti-Wall Street protests spreading to over 100 US cities and towns, President B. Obama at a White House press conference Thursday cynically sought to exploit the outpouring of spontaneous anger at the banks and big business as a vehicle for his reelection bid. The new Occupy Wall Street protests sprang up in a number of major cities, including Philadelphia, New Orleans, Washington, Tampa, Dallas, Houston and Austin. They came on the heels of the largest demonstration so far in New York City. US protests have taken a resistance twist against the regime. On 06th Oct, thousands of people initiated an occupation of Freedom Plaza in Washington before staging a march past the US Treasury and the White House. The demonstrators chanted, “We Got Sold Out.” The march ended in front of the US Chamber of Commerce, where marchers shouted, “We Want Jobs! A demonstration was also held outside City Hall in the state capital of Austin. Marches also took place across Texas and Houston. Several hundred marched on the Federal Reserve Bank in Dallas, which was ringed with police barricades. Several hundred demonstrators marched down Tulane Avenue through the financial district of New Orleans, rallying in Lafayette Square near the New Orleans branch of the Federal Reserve Bank.

Obama, still busy with supporting “ freedom movements” in Mideast, as well as the escalation of terror wars in Islamic world by adding more state terrorists , it seems, is not even aware of the anti-Obama movements indoors. People of USA are deadly disturbed that the politicians cutting across the parties coordinate their domestic and foreign loots and share the booties and they do not care about the people. Obama defended the failure to prosecute any of those responsible for triggering the deepest crisis since the Great Depression. The late Obama’s feigned and concerted attempt to sympathy for the protests is only to channel the movement behind the Democratic Party, while the Republicans are trying to bring them to their side. Some of the Democratic party union bureaucrats present made no bones of the fact that they want to see the Occupy Wall Street movement exploited as a vehicle for the Obama re-election campaign. The effort to hijack the protest movement has been spearheaded by the trade unions, which participated in the mass march in New York City. The rally was packed with bureaucrats who have led no fight of their own against Wall Street and are responsible for betraying the interests of the workers they purport to represent. In a number of areas, anti-Wall Street protests have met with arrests, brutality and harassment from the police. Mounted police were brought in to intimidate demonstrators and a number of people suffered injuries as cops threw them to the pavement. The New York City Police Department has met the protests with excessive force over the course of the last several weeks, some 700 demonstrators were arrested after they had been led onto the Brooklyn Bridge and then trapped there by police on either side. In New York City, toward the end of mass march through lower Manhattan, police used truncheons and pepper spray against unresisting protesters and arrested 28 people after a section of the demonstration tried to march on Wall Street. In Seattle, more than two-dozen demonstrators were arrested. Midnight knocks have returned to USA. In St. Louis, 11 people were arrested shortly after midnight on 6th morning after police attempted to enforce a ban on demonstrations in Kiener Plaza after 10 pm. Some 100 members of the occupation group were in the plaza at midnight when two dozen squad cars raided the area. In San Francisco, police in riot gear raided the Occupy SF camp on Market Street Wednesday night.

Various US interlocutors have now gone public with allegations long suppressed about Pakistan's dalliance with terrorism, but president Obama himself led the charge at his White House press conference on Thursday with a public disquisition about Pakistani follies that reverberated across South Asia policy circles . The US president stopped short of terming Pakistan a state sponsor of terrorism but left no doubt about what he and his administration thought of a country only nominally regarded as an ally. After a token acknowledgement of its partnership and cooperation, Obama accused Pakistan of interaction with "unsavory characters" and "connection...with with certain individuals that we find troubling," - barely disguised euphemisms for consorting with terrorists.

Pakistan's relations with the United States reached a new low this month after Washington accused the Inter-Services Intelligence, and by inference the Pakistani military, of supporting the Haqqani network of attacking the US embassy in Kabul and NATO targets in Afghanistan. Bickering and worse is not uncommon between the two. The question is whether it's different this time and what this might mean for a relationship that has been the bane of India's security establishment for decades.

Washington has expressed reservations about Pakistan's role in the war on terror before. This time, says Pakistani analyst Saleem Safi, "They have not left any doubt that they are accusing the ISI of duplicity and for the deaths of Americans in Afghanistan." This is much more serious, he argues, not only for US-Pakistan relations but also for relations between the civilian and military leadership within Pakistan. US and South Asian analysts say this was a conflict waiting to happen. Pakistan and the US have different objectives in Afghanistan. Islamabad wants a pro-Pakistani regime, defined as Taliban rule, in Kabul. The US wants one hostile to al Qaeda and terrorism, preferably dedicated to making a normal country out of Afghanistan. Pakistans allies in this goal are exactly those militant groups that the US distrusts the most: the Haqqani network, Mullah Omar and the Quetta Shura.
