We've been hearing about a sequel to "Zoolander" for several years. And now comes word that Paramount Pictures is officially moving with the new movie, which will be directed by Justin Theroux. The big news is that Penelope Cruz just signed on for a role in "Zoolander 2," which will bring back Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson and Will Ferrell. The original only grossed $60 million worldwide, which is why the studio has been slow to greenlit the sequel. But after the great performance of "Dumb and Dumber To," studios are once again looking at their properties for a potential revival. Jonah Hill was previously rumored to play the villain in a story about Derek (Stiller) getting hired to be a personal model for an Arab Sheikh and learning that models are being turned into oil. »

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay—Part 1 opens in theaters this week and, as expected, leading lady Jennifer Lawrence has been making the publicity rounds and, as expected, she's been totally charming and lovable. (Not too many stars can get away with singing this terribly and still be endearing.) J. Law not only steadfastly remains America's Sweetheart, but she only seems to be getting better at it. Whether she's facing the celebrity nudes leak scandal head on or making a Gif-worthy funny face, the admiration for the Oscar-winning actress still seems to know no bounds. While the outspoken star has had her share of critics thanks to some of her seemingly insensitive comments or misconstrued jokes about Meryl Streep, there's been no major backlash or outcry. In Hollywood, Lawrence is pretty infallible, but she's not the only one. Here are 12 other stars that seem »

"I think that we could all do with a healthy dose of disillusionment," remarks director Bennett Miller while recently speaking in Chicago about his new film Foxcatcher. It's a statement delivered with his zen garden-like tone (Mark Ruffalo's words, not mine), and with truth concerning his dramatic pursuits as a storyteller. Foxcatcher, like his previous projects Capote and Moneyball, explores characters and systems that audiences may recognize, but with dramatic ambition then seeks to unravel it in a colder light.
A riveting true story about Olympic wrestling brothers Mark and David Schultz (Channing Tatum and Ruffalo, respectively) and the billionaire who wanted to own their glory (Steve Carell), Foxcatcher is an observational drama on the morose results of the American Dream, and the ideals that create selfish ambition. Miller is certainly aiming high with his material, and mostly achieves this desired prominence with the help of larger-than-life performances. »

One of the most popular elements of this year's widely successful The Lego Movie was Will Arnett's Batman. So popular was he that he's getting his own spin-off movie in 2017. Speaking out the movie to Empire, Phil Lord and Chris (who will serve as producers on the movie) gave some insights as to what we can expect.
"Rest assured, every era of Batman filmmaking will be acknowledged," Lord said.
"There have been so many interpretations of Batman and there is so much to play with there," Miller added. "There are 40 versions of his origin story alone."
Lord and Miller will return to direct The Lego Movie 2, which they have promised will feature more female characters.
Chris McKay, who served as a writer on The Lego Movie, will direct the Lego Batman spin-off with Seth Grahame-Smith (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter). Before that, Warner Bros. will be releasing »

It turns out you weren't the only one who couldn't stop laughing during "22 Jump Street." Star Jonah Hill also had a hard time keeping a straight face, as evidenced in a new outtake featured on the film's new DVD and Blu-ray. Co-star Rob Riggle's bug-eyed prisoner routine makes Hill giggle so hard that he can't even finish one sentence, much to the amusement of Channing Tatum and Dave Franco. The best part of the video is that it shows the action from four different angles simultaneously. It's like film school, only the dirty words are bleeped out. Watch it on MTV.com. Directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller ("The Lego Movie"), "22" also stars Ice Cube, Peter Stormare, Amber Stevens, Nick Offerman and Jillian Bell. The DVD and Blu-ray release also includes deleted and extended scenes, featurettes, audio commentary with Tatum, Hill, Lord and Miller, and "The Dramatic Interpretation »

Heading into the holidays, the studios are putting together plenty of Blu-rays of recent box office hits, along with special gift sets for purchase. This week, you can head back to college with 22 Jump Street or check out some wild tornadoes in Into The Storm. Check them out, below. 22 Jump Street Blu-ray 22 Jump Street is not for the faint-hearted. It.s also not for people who haven.t caught the first film in the franchise, 21 Jump Street. The genius of the sequel relies on a basic familiarity with the buddy cop dynamic and the basic plot structure of the original. Its clever plot relentlessly pokes fun at both. Fortunately, it also finds time to tell a pretty good story, too. 22 Jump Street finds Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) back from the original movie, taking on college this time around rather than high school. The two are introduced to »

Nothing gets us giddy quite like an epic celebrity movie cameo.
An A-lister who appears in an often uncredited role with minimal screen time and, we have no idea it's coming — how could we not love that?!
Alfred Hitchcock was the cameo master of his time, appearing in 39 of his 52 surviving films. People loved searching for him like a real life Where's Waldo. Even more recently, Interstellar blew us away with a crazy unexpected cameo that we don't want to give away quite yet…but it got us thinking about other unexpected appearances in movies!
So let's take a look at some of our favorite film cameos of all-time.
Warning: Possible Spoilers Ahead.
Johnny Depp -- 21 Jump Street
Johnny Depp paid perfect homage to his 21 Jump Street roots. Spending most of the role in disguise, he ultimately reveals his identity leaving Jonah Hill's character to declare, "You're like an amazing actor man!"

If you thought 22 Jump Street effectively knee-capped any possibility of a third round of misadventures for Schmidt and Jenko, you weren't alone. A running joke in the sequel was the redundancy of sequels, and that film's credit sequence openly mocked the idea of future installments, presenting a slew of ridiculous posters for movies like 25 Jump Street: A Semester at Sea and 30 Jump Street: Flight School. Now, however, directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller have again teased the possibility of an actual 23 Jump Street.
The sound bite came during Lord and Miller's interview with Empire Magazine, in which they discussed plans for The Lego Movie 2, The Lego Batman Movie and more. When asked about the possibility of bringing Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum back for a Jump Street threequel, Miller's answer came as a big surprise:
Miller: "It's quite possible. We've been developing something with Rodney Rothman, »

"They're not 21 anymore," brags one tagline for 22 Jump Street, and that self-aware groaner is a good indication of much of the comedy that fuels the proceedings in this bigger-but-not-better sequel. Returning directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, along with returning writer Michael Bacall (credited alongside Oren Uziel and Rodney Rothman this time around), clearly understand the inevitable triteness of most follow-ups and, in a savvy move that still isn't a complete slam-dunk, make that part of the joke.
What real reason was there to catch up with Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) after they successfully busted the high school drug ring they were sent undercover to infiltrate in 21 Jump Street? Outside of box office receipts, perhaps the simple answer is just that there were more laughs to be had. This sequel isn't particularly interested in deepening the bond between our protagonists or completely revamping the »

At a loss for what to watch this week? From new DVDs and Blu-rays, to what's streaming on Netflix, we've got you covered.
New on DVD and Blu-ray
"22 Jump Street"
Can Chris Miller and Phil Lord make anything entertaining? When "21 Jump Street" the movie was announced, it seemed utterly ludicrous, if not downright insulting. Yet here we are enjoying the sequel, digging on the continued doofy adventures of Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum). What's next, a dazzling movie about Legos?!
"20,000 Days on Earth"
This documentary about writer and musician Nick Cave is just as weird and wonderful as its subject. It's a must-see for fans of Cave's oeuvre, but even if you don't know a Boy Next Door from a Bad Seed, you'll get a kick out of this strange film. Featuring appearances by Kylie Minogue, Ray Winstone, Warren Ellis, and Blixa Bargeld.

However, I do have quite a bit more about the family, including (in my files since 1974 and almost forgotten) a photocopy of the will of the son Edward.
This is interesting on several counts. I don't have a detailed transcript, and it's too big for my scanner, but here are the notes I made all those years ago.
INDEX (Kendal Deanery)
Edward Fishwick, Heysham
d. 10/Aug/1830
Exec. Elizabeth Fishwick (widow)
Inventory: under Ł2,000
Notes from the will itself:
Edward Fishwick married Elizabeth Carter
Was son of Edward Fishwick, Limborner [sic] of Nether Kellet
Had sisters: Margret marr. Walker
Easter [sic] marr. White
Catran [sic] marr. Heyes
Betty marr. Fairclough
Ann marr. Tenpeney
You'll see that his father is called Edward, not Edmund - a very common scribal and transcription variant - and was a Lime-burner ("limborner"). There are also three more daughters to add to your list. I guess that "Easter" probably should be Esther, and "Catran" probably Catherine. Elizabeth was apparently known in the family as Betty.
How do you descend from this family?

Capcom VP explains RE5 multiplayer development, calls complaints 'BS'
Although Capcom had previously responded to the flack it's received for the $5 charge on the Resident Evil 5 "Versus" DLC, a VP for the publisher has had enough with all the complaining and is calling "BS." Christian Svensson, VP of strategic planning and business development, explains on the company forums that people are getting plenty of bang for their $60 and says that if people don't see the value in the secondary offering that, "the choice is simple, don't purchase it."
Svensson goes on to explain that paid DLC at Capcom has its own budget, with its own profit and loss analysis. He emphasizes that without this method, the Versus content wouldn't exist in the first place, because it "did not fit within the production budget of the base product." He continues that to hit the sweet spot of DLC releasing within 3 to 6 weeks of initial launch that development on these products starts before the actual product hits shelves.
Although the whole situation definitely has some debatable points, Svensson certainly hit the nail on the head when he said if consumers don't agree with what Capcom did: Don't buy the product.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Italy threatens to let loose refugees picked up in the sea
The last time Mare Nostrum (Latin for Our Sea) was used as a political slogan in Italy, Mussolini's fascists were claiming dominance over the entire Mediterranean. This time it's different. It's the name of the operation the Italian navy is running to save asylum seekers from drowning on the dangerous voyage in open boats from North Africa to Italy.
In a seaworthy vessel with a working engine and a reliable compass, it's a 10-hour crossing and not very dangerous at all. In a leaky, massively overcrowded wreck that was scavenged somewhere along the North African coast by the people smugglers and sent off to Italy after a few rudimentary repairs, it can be a death sentence. An estimated 20,000 people went down with their boats before reaching Italy in the past 10 years.
The most recent victims, on Saturday, barely made it one kilometre off the Libyan coast before their boat sank, leaving 170 people in the water. The Italian navy does not operate in Libyan territorial waters, and the Libyan coast guard station near Qarabouli, east of Tripoli, has no ships of its own. The coast guard borrowed a couple of fishing boats, but only 16 people were still alive by the time they got there.
The boats usually flounder in international waters, however, and then it's the Italian navy's job. Operation Mare Nostrum began in October 2013, and since then over 80,000 people have been pulled from these sea-going death traps (though most were not actually sinking at the time) and safely landed in Italy. Last weekend, the Italian navy rescued almost 4,000 more.
This policy honours Italy's humanitarian traditions -- but since all the people who are saved claim political asylum on coming ashore, setting in motion a legal process that can last for years, the Italian navy is actually increasing Italy's problem as the first port of call for over half the undocumented immigrants entering the European Union.
Most of them have a good case for claiming asylum: a large majority of the people reaching Italy are refugees from war and tyranny in Syria, Eritrea, and Somalia, with smaller number from various West African countries. Nor do they really want to stay in Italy, which is going through a prolonged economic crisis and has very high unemployment. They would rather move on to more prosperous EU countries further north.
But international law says refugees must claim asylum in the first safe haven they reach, and in the case of the EU that is almost bound to be Italy, because it is so near to Africa and because the post-Gaddafi chaos in Libya means there is no control over boats leaving the Libyan coast.
Italy is now getting more than half of the EU's entire refugee flow -- probably well over 100,000 this year -- and all of those people must stay in Italy. It's expensive, it's politically poisonous, and the country's facilities for looking after these refugees are being overwhelmed. Yet Italy's EU partners seem quite content to leave Italy to bear the burden all by itself.
With almost all of the Fertile Crescent now in a state of war, and new flows of refugees starting as a result of the fighting in South Sudan and the Central African Republic, the numbers are going up fast. Five Italian warships are dedicated full-time to Operation Mare Nostrum, and on many occasions in the past few months they have picked up more than a thousand people in one day. This situation cannot last.
Italy has made no threats to stop the rescues and let the refugees drown. "We do not want a sea of death," said Rear-Admiral Michele Saponaro, who runs the operation from the naval command centre. But Rome is losing patience with its do-nothing EU "partners", and there is another way to address Italy's problem.
The Schengen Treaty does not include Britain and Ireland, which opted out, and four new EU members have not yet complied with its terms -- but 22 of the EU's 28 members allow free movement across their borders for legal residents of all the Schengen countries. This includes Italy, of course. So in theory if Italy just gives the asylum seekers an ID card and a document saying they have permanent residence, then they'll leave for greener pastures.
"We'll just let them go," said Interior Minister Angelino Alfano last May. "We want to clearly say to the EU that they either patrol the Mediterranean border with us or we will send all those who ask for asylum in Italy where they really want to go: that is, the rest of Europe, because they don't want to stay in Italy."
A previous Italian government briefly made the same threat back in 2011 and then the rift was papered over, but Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi's new government seems to mean business. Italy not only wants its partners to contribute money and ships to Operation Mare Nostrum; it also wants them to share the job of looking after the refugees and not leave them all in Italy.
The EU is famously bad at making hard choices, but it's finally going to have to face up to this one.

Come watch the latest and greatest hand-picked independent movie releases from around the world and take part in exclusive film and music events, Q & A panels with award winning filmmakers and directors and much more!

"The Long Beach International Film Festival continues to provide an opportunity for filmmakers to come and see the types of filming locations Nassau County has to offer whether it be our beaches, mansions, suburban areas and, of course, Gold Coast Studios and Grumman Studios, which are all New York State-approved movie studios which qualify for the much sought after 30% tax credit,", said Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano.
Do you have dreams of winning an Academy Award? Learn the tips, tricks and secrets of the trade at the #LBIFFNY invitation only filmmakers workshop hosted by the NYS Governors Film Office at Grumman Movie Studios, 500 Grumman Rd West in Bethpage, Long Island NY on Wednesday July 30th.
"The Long Beach International Film Festival has been incredibly popular in each of its first two years, and we are so excited for this year's expanded event. The Festival has already become a wonderful City tradition that thousands of residents and Visitors look forward to attending" said Jack Schnirman, Long Beach City Manager.
Among the highlights of the festival is the world premiere of "Wisdom to Know The Difference" which was directed by Massapequa, Long Island NY's own Daniel Baldwin and stars his brother William Baldwin, Lou Diamond Phillips and others. This exciting screening will take place at Madison Theatre at Molloy College, 1000 Hempstead Ave. Rockville Centre, Long Island NY as part of our opening ceremonies on Wednesday July 30th and will feature an exclusive Q & A with Daniel Baldwin and his cast and crew after the film.
"Having the Madison Theater involved this year is a wonderful addition to the festival, and especially exciting due to the fact the Long Beach Theatre is still closed due to Hurricane Sandy", said Craig Weintraub, Co-Founder of the LBIFF.

I was watching the Remember fireworks show with The Dark Lady and her family last night. When they started playing Walt's opening day speech I just looked down and smiled, mouthing every word and my eyes got a little wet. I tried to hide it of course. Whenever I thought back to hearing it like that, it started all over again. I think that speech was one of the major influences on me wanting to work for Disney and not to mention it was the opening day speech for the park that I call home by the man who created it.
So, what makes you tear up? Is it whenever you look back at DCA and are sad that the parking lot is gone? The last performance of Block Party Bash? What?

Good morning. Here we go.
1) Using Baby Wipes can be causing real problems. Washington DC found the city has seen a 35% jump in clogged pipes over the past few years, all because more and more people are using wipes. Use the trash can people.
2) McDonalds is Testing a Family Sized meal in a Box for 15 bucks. You get two Quarter Pounders, 20 mc Nuggets and two medium fries for $15. It is being tested in Kansas City. It might catch on.
3) You can now buy Pumpkin flavored M&M's. Yes.

Google Launches AdWords Local Plus Box
Google announced the launch of the AdWords Local Plus box. When you conduct some local searches, the sponsored listings may contain a plus sign, which you can click and expand into a map. We have reported tests of this feature months ago, but now it is live. Here are screen captures:
Here is a picture of the AdWords plus sign closed:
Here is a picture of the AdWords plus sign open:
Advertisers will not be charged for clicking on the plus sign; they will only be charged for clicks on the link that takes the searcher to the advertiser's destination.
How do you get your ads to show up like this? If you are already a local business advertiser with Google, then you won't have to do anything. The only requirement is that the ad be in the top yellow ad position. Ads on the right side of the page will not contain the plus sign.
Google is currently rolling this out to AdWords accounts in the US, Canada, UK, and Germany.
I wonder how soon we will see the Google Products Plus Sign on Google AdWords ads?

"This public law firm is renowned for its cutting-edge work defending the human rights of individuals connected to the Iraq war. It recently won success in the landmark ECHR case which condemned the UK government for breaching international human rights law for subjecting two Iraqis to the fear of execution in Iraq."
Star Rating (Philip Shiner)
In a hearing in London today, the Court of Appeal granted Doncaster resident Carol Buck the right to appeal a High Court judgment of August 2012 in a case seeking to prevent the Mayor of Doncaster from going ahead with swingeing cuts to library services in the area. The decision means that a full appeal hearing will now take place in the Court of Appeal before June this year.
The Claimant will be asking for this hearing to take place as soon as possible, so that the important question of the balance of power between the Mayor and the elected Council in vital areas such as cuts to local libraries can be clarified.
At the hearing, the Court of Appeal agreed that all of the appeal points raised by the Claimant should be considered at a full hearing before a three judge Court of Appeal, including:
- The powers of a democratically elected Council to propose reasonable binding amendments to the Councils annual financial strategy;
- Whether the budget constitutes a Council strategy which the Mayor is required to follow.
If the Claimant is successful in her appeal, the Court of Appeal will have the power to quash the Mayors decision thus restoring the previous council-funded library services while the Council and Mayor reconsiders the financial strategy.
The Court of Appeals decision today comes amid growing uncertainty over the future of publicly funded services in Doncaster and across the UK as a whole. Where local services are being lost, it is vital that voters know the extent of the powers of their elected representatives so that those same representatives can be held accountable for their decisions.
Speaking today, Carol Buck, said as follows:
I am very pleased that we have been given permission to appeal by the Court of Appeal. I am only sad that the Mayor has ignored local protests and failed to resource the libraries in the way the Council intended.
Daniel Carey of Public Interest Lawyers said as follows:
I am pleased that the Court of Appeal has recognised the importance of the issues in this case and the validity of our legal arguments. The democratic mandate of the Mayor does not extend to trampling the democratic mandate of the full Council when it has specifically provided for the funding of highly valued services such as Doncasters libraries.
