LOS ANGELES Reuters.....2009

The low-rated shows "30 Rock" and "Mad Men" shared

the spotlight at the Emmy Awards for a second year

on Sunday, but most of their stars were snubbed as
the acting awards went to repeat winners
or surprise choices.

Tina Fey, the creator and star of NBC's "30 Rock,"
failed to defend her best comic actress title.
She lost to Australia's Toni Collette, who plays
a woman with multiple personalities in Showtime's
"United States of Tara."

Fey's co-star, Alec Baldwin, was the only one of
13 nominees from either "30 Rock" or "Mad Men"
to win an acting prize, in his case for playing
a bumbling network TV boss.

Still, "30 Rock" was named best comedy for a third
year, and "Mad Men" best drama for a second.
Both prizes were announced at the end of the
three-hour ceremony.

"Phew! That was a nail-biter," said Fey, accepting
the big prize for "30 Rock," which won just five
of the leading 22 Emmys for which the cult
favorite had been nominated.

"Mad Men," whose audience is about 2 million on
the niche cable channel AMC, won just three of
the 16 Emmys for which it had been nominated.
Last year, the period saga made history by
becoming the first series from a cable network
other than HBO to win the Emmy for best drama.

"I may be the only person in the room with complete
creative freedom. That's why the show is so good,
" said "Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner,
who shared the Emmy with Kater Gordon
for best drama writing.

H&M Winter Lookbook

Sonbahar ve kış artık yavaş yavaş geliyor, yarın da İstanbul'da yağmur yağacakmış hatta. Bu sene bir ilke imza attım, ne yazdan ne önümüzdeki sonbahardan şikayet ettim, hatta daha önceden ilkbahar gelsin diye can attım. Bilmeyenler için ara mevsimleri hiç sevmem, özellikle de sonbahar ve yağmurdan nefret ederim. Her neyse yeni koleksiyonlar beni neşelendirmeye yetti :) Bu yazı tüm sonbahar sevmeyenler için gelsiiin :D Fall and winter are coming slowly, I heard that it will be rainy tomorrow in İstanbul. This year I made a difference and didn't complain about fall - for the ones who don't know I hate rain and fall from seasons. Maybe because of the new collections :) And I send this post to people who don't like fall all around the world :D Neyse ki karaları bağlamıyoruz, yine rengarenk giyinmeye devam edebiliriz. Kıyafetlerin kesimleri hatları ortaya çıkarmayacak şekilde. Thank God, we can still wear our colourful clothes. But they are going to hide our lines/curv...

That my one vote added to put the current government in power is one decision i regret with all my heart. -- Those were the words of Michael Elebeli Collins, popularly known as Don Jazzy in a recent interview with talk of naija correspondent Osaremen Ehi James over the groups current stance on Pres. Gooduck Jonathan fuel subsidy removal. You would recollect that at the time of the April elections Pres.

CHARLES TAYLOR RECIEVES SENTENCE FOR WAR CRIMES & CRIMES AGAINTS HUMANITY

Charles Taylor, 64, the first former head of state to be convicted of war crimes since World War II was sentenced to 50 years in prison yesterday by an international court in The Hague, Netherlands. Taylor is due to serve his sentence at a high security prison in Britain. There is no death penalty in international criminal law. The six years he spent detained during the trial will count against his term. Meanwhile, he is appealing his conviction. Dressed in a blue suit and yellow tie, Taylor sat impassively through the roughly 45minute sentencing. Hands clasped in front of his mouth and brow furrowed, Taylor shifted uneasily when the camera broadcasting proceedings settled on him. He directed his gaze downward while Presiding Judge Richard Lussick read the sentencing statement, which began with a horror cabinet of carnage committed in Sierra Leone by rebels from the Revolutionary United Front, which the former president backed. "The accused has been found responsible...
