| Courtney's Boy Blog
Courtney Love has spread a little of her own recently. Specifically within the younger men department. Courtney being Courtney, she's not mincing her words. In a rambling yet highly entertaining MySpace blog, the 43-year-old rock star spilled all on her wandering eye, and the fellas it tends to attract. First in the lusty firing line is 29-year-old acting talent Josh Hartnett. "Josh Hartnett is really kinda cute in real life - way more than I ever thought when I saw him out before and very, very nice," Court wrote. Next up is Scot screen boy James McAvoy, aged a tender 28 years. "Who the f*** wouldn't swoon over that kid! Wow!" Courtney enthused in an extract that's bound to have James blushing.
Foreign Fighters of Harsher Bent Bolster Taliban
In interviews in southern and eastern Afghanistan, local officials and village elders also reported having seen more foreigners fighting alongside the Taliban than in any year since the American-led invasion in 2001. In Afghanistan, the foreigners serve as mid-level commanders, and train and finance local fighters, according to Western analysts. In Pakistan's tribal areas, they train suicide bombers, create roadside-bomb factories and have vastly increased the number of high-quality Taliban fund-raising and recruiting videos posted online. Gauging the exact number of Taliban and foreign fighters in Afghanistan is difficult, Western officials and analysts say. At any given time, the Taliban can field up to 10,000 fighters, they said, but only 2,000 to 3,000 are highly motivated, full-time insurgents.

Happy All-Star Break: Denis Savard, Brent Sutter Call Out Their ...
When Denis Savard and Brent Sutter were teammates on the 1996 Blackhawks, I wonder if they ever thought they'd be coaching in the National Hockey League at the same time. Beyond that, I wonder if they ever imagined they'd throw their players under the bus on the same night. After Chicago's 1-0 loss to Columbus last night, Coach Savard went rip city on a number of unnamed players that the team has committed to via long-term contracts, but whom he feels have not committed to paying the price for victory: "They were very happy when they signed it ... Well, commit to us, commit to the jersey, commit to the people here. They don't want to commit to the Indian, let's go upstairs and get them out of here ... The message of (Chairman Rocky Wirtz, President John McDonough and general manager Dale Tallon) is pretty clear: We're here to win the Stanley Cup.
