Barely a week after American President blamed India’s middle class for eating too much and causing a global rise in food prices, Bush has now said that the cyclone in Burma could further affect food prices. Bush said that since the United States would be forced to help deliver aid and food rations to the cyclone hit areas, it would result in a shortage in food for domestic consumers leading to further price rises. This, coupled with the fact that most Americans are losing their houses on an unprecedented fast rate, Bush believes that there is no way that Senator John McCain could lose the upcoming elections.

The Indian Union Health Minister, Anbumani Ramadoss, told Bollywood producers that the reason for poverty in India is Bollywood films glorifying poverty on screen. The minister felt that if poverty was not glorified in cinema then the 1 billion of the India’s 1.3 billion population that live below the poverty line would be encouraged to get an honest job and get ahead in life. The minister blamed the money hungry Bollywood producers for using the poverty stricken people to make money and claimed that the poor people did not know better and since they are portrayed in such a positive light onscreen do not feel that they should get out of their current state.

After years of trying to shut down one of the Internet’s most famous torrent sites, The Pirate Bay, Hollywood producers are turning to Bollywood to understand the reason for their success. Until date, there are no torrents available for Bollywood films and according to the people behind The Pirate Bay, there never will be either.

The people of the United States of America have rallied behind presidential candidate Senator Hillary Clinton on the topic of her decision to “wipe out” Iran. In an unprecedented move, the usually divided country came together to denounce the Iranian President’s comments and said that Iran should follow the US’s example when it comes to human rights. All the people polled said that Iran should imitate the US and brutally slay Iraqis, indiscriminately destroy towns and keep POWs in Cuba without trial instead of stoning women, demonstrating outside the US embassy and recruiting suicide bombers.

Iran has officially boycotted the any entry of Olympics Barbie, the official toy of the summer Olympics game. Coming on the back of Iran’s criticism of all Barbie dolls, while this threat does not seem a major problem for most people, manufacturers are concerned of the effect that this ban would have on other Islamic countries. The official Olympics Barbie would be modelled on the traditional size zero model but would be suited in Chinese gymnast outfits. Iran has objected to lifting the ban even if there is a release of an Iranian version of the doll.
