Scott's backers at 20th Century Fox are probably thinking more of box-office action. When Hollywood looks ahead, it nearly always uses a rearview mirror. What's Next is usually a sequel to What Worked. In this skeptical light, Kingdom of Heaven can be seen as a recipe of familiar faces and tropes. Hire Ridley Scott to direct a burly period epic that pits an obscure hero against historical figures (think Gladiator, then substitute the Holy Roman Empire for the plain old Roman one). Cast Orlando Bloom as a young smithy who boldly challenges the nobility and Liam Neeson...
...Bush's policies, especially on an Iraq exit strategy, were nearly as thin as the President's defense of them. No, Kerry won the debate on Bush's favorite intangible: the appearance of strength. The President, who was so comfortable through three debates against Al Gore, appeared "annoyed," as Fox News's Brit Hume put it. Actually, it was worse than that: Bush seemed the lesser man. Kerry stood ramrod straight and preternaturally calm. Bush squirmed and grimaced behind his lectern. When he leaned down and in to make a point, he appeared to be ducking for cover...
...AMERICA'S BORDER" RECOGNIZED immigration as a major challenge in Mexican-U.S. relations [Sept. 20], but TIME failed to provide an objective view.

...least give Housewives credit for looking at what our unrealistic ideals of domesticity do to women. Those ideals still rule on two new reality shows, Trading Spouses on Fox and Wife Swap on ABC, which give two moms a chance to run each other's homes. Both shows are a hoot, but they also judge women entirely in terms of their housekeeping skills. On Swap, a millionaire with four nannies tearfully realizes she needs to spend less time at the spa and more with the kids: "I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me!" Even Lifetime...
...September 30. The Golf and Fox companies officially took command of Combat Outpost on September 17, five days after a seven-hour firefight had served as a reminder that Ramadi, the capital of al-Anbar province, remains a key battleground in the war to shape Iraq's future. Not quite a no-go zone like insurgent-controlled Fallujah, Ramadi instead is the scene of an ongoing contest for control - The Marines on one side, various insurgent groups on the other, the people of Ramadi in the middle. "There is fighting near houses in the neighborhoods, says one of them, Waleed...
