@placeholder, who is a vegetarian, feeds Bashar defrosted mice once a week, | By Harriet Arkell PUBLISHED: 09:13 EST, 29 April 2013 | UPDATED: 10:39 EST, 29 April 2013 As unlikely couples go, these two are right up there.

Of course I'm excited to see a @placeholder movie, but my experience of being at Cannes is that going to see one of those giant films ends up taking all day long. | CANNES, France (CNN) -- The line-up at this year's Cannes Film Festival is a cineaste's dream. There are high expectations for Jane Campion's "Bright Star," a drama about 19th-century poet John Keats. Packed with big name auteurs (Pedro Almodovar, Ken Loach, Lars Von Trier, Quentin Tarantino, and Park Chan-wook among others) and intriguing propositions, the competition for the coveted Palme d'Or is sure to be fierce. While there may be a dearth of surprises in the line-up, the world's shiniest cinema event has certainly proved that in these tough economic times it can still cherry pick the best of what's out there.

At least 657 cases of sexual violence involving women and girls were documented in September and October during mass expulsions from Angola to Congo, according to UNICEF.

In an address to Parliament that lasted nearly 30 minutes, Poroshenko, 48, frequently returned to the theme of peace, security and independence for Ukraine, and vowed to preserve the territorial integrity of the country. That integrity has come under threat in the last two months by what amounts to a rebellion in the eastern regions of Luhansk and Donetsk, one that's led by groups of pro-Russia separatists who have declared "people's republics" in both areas.

"@placeholder is essentially one of the characters in the movie, and we're trying to show how rich of a tapestry it is." | (CNNGo) -- After months of anticipation and cast speculation, "The Hangover Part II" finally hit screens in Bangkok this week. For anyone unfamiliar with the film, starring Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis, it is much the same as the previous one: a wedding, a bunch of blokes, alcohol, memory loss and a missing person. Though instead of Las Vegas, this time it's set in Thailand. According to the film's producer, Dan Goldberg, Bangkok is "the last place in the world that these guys should be, which, of course, makes it the perfect place to send them." Sure, red light districts may be a cliché here in the City of Angels, so they were bound to have a role in the film.

'The aim was to arrest these @placeholder bodies who wear the cloak of politics.' | By Sam Webb Forces loyal to a rogue Libyan general attacked the country's parliament today, claiming they are targeting Islamist politicians who protect the extremist militias now plaguing the nation. Lawmakers in Tripoli were forced to flee the attack, which was met with resistance from other troops, Mohammed al-Hegazi, a spokesman for General Khalifa Hifter, told Libya's al-Ahrar television station. Gunfire near parliament could be heard for miles around. Scroll down for videos In this Saturday, May 17, 2014 photo, Libyan Gen. Khalifa Hifter addresses a press conference in Benghazi, Libya. The death toll from fighting over the weekend in Libya's eastern city of Benghazi between troops loyal to Hifter, a rogue general, and Islamist militias has risen to at least 70, the Health Ministry said on Sunday. In a statement late Saturday, Libya's interim prime minister, parliament speaker and the head of military warned Hifter against further pursuing his offensive and threatened the troops cooperating with him.

@placeholder has been authorized to send some 3,900 troops if needed. | About two dozen U.S. military specialists deploying to Liberia will test laboratory samples for Ebola, but most of the nearly 4,000 troops due to go there are not expected to be in direct contact with the virus, defense officials said Tuesday. General David Rodriguez, head of U.S. forces in Africa, said three mobile labs had deployed to Liberia and four more were being sought to run tests that would distinguish between people infected with Ebola and those who have diseases with similar symptoms, such as malaria. Each lab would be staffed by a team of three to four experts trained to operate in the worst chemical, biological and nuclear environments, Rodriguez told reporters at a Pentagon briefing.

'This phenomenon has violent roots, the ideology, the networks,' Obama said of @placeholder. | Barack Obama pointedly refused to call ISIS terrorists Muslims today as he spoke at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron. Standing just a few feet away, Cameron warned of a global 'Islamist extremist terrorist threat,' condemning the perversion of Islam in the strongest possible terms three times and using the word 'poisonous' to describe the radicalized ideology five times. Keeping with his administration's policy to label foreign fighters as 'terrorists,' Obama would not refer to the religion of ISIS militants during the White House news conference but at one point called them 'fanatics.' Obama said the world must 'lift up those voices that represent the vast majority of the Muslim world' and push a counter narrative as 'aggressively and as nimbly as the messages coming' from the radicals.

@placeholder was founded in the 1950s by L.

Rev, Charles Kennedy uses Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard's book during a Friday night sermon. Scientologists do not worship God, much less Jesus Christ. The church has seen plenty of controversy and critics consider it a cult. So why are observant Christians embracing some of its teachings? Two pastors who spoke recently with CNN explained that when it comes to religion, they still preach the core beliefs of Christianity. But when it comes to practicing what they preach in a modern world, borrowing from Scientology helps.

At issue was whether @placeholder's remarks represented such testimony or were "excited utterances" that helped police assess a crime emergency. | Washington (CNN) -- The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday reinstated a Michigan man's murder conviction that had been overturned because the victim's dying words were used in the trial. The justices concluded the mortally wounded man's statements to police were "non-testimonial" and therefore admissible in court. The 6-2 decision found police were confronted with an unresolved situation at the crime scene involving an at-large suspect. That gave officers latitude to question Anthony Covington, the bleeding victim, for information. "There was an ongoing emergency here where an armed shooter, whose motive for and location after the shooting were unknown, had mortally wounded Covington within a few blocks and a few minutes of the location where police found Covington," Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote for the majority.

A @placeholder group in France pressed charges against Dylan for his remarks. | (CNN) -- Less than a month ago Bob Dylan could justifiably feel he was revered in France. The singer was in Paris to receive France's highest public award, the Legion d'Honneur. As France's most prestigious medal was pinned to Dylan's lapel, his French hosts heaped praise on the 72-year-old legend for his contribution to music -- and notably his songs inspired by French poets Rimbaud and Verlaine. It was impossible to predict that, only three weeks later, Dylan would be embroiled in an ugly controversy that has resulted in preliminary charges against him in France for inciting racial hatred. Ironically, Dylan's comments were made about America, not France. In a Rolling Stone interview published in 2012, the singer was quoted as saying: "If you got a slave master or Klan in your blood, blacks can sense that. That stuff lingers to this day. Just like Jews can sense Nazi blood and the Serbs can sense Croatian blood."

Confident: Reece McFadden has the flyweight Commonwealth title in his sights after beating @placeholder | By Ronnie Esplin, Press Association Scottish flyweight Reece McFadden claimed he looked into the eyes of Charlie Edwards and knew his confident quest for Commonwealth Games gold would continue following their battle at the SECC.

In a classic Scotland versus England last-16 clash in front of an enthusiastic crowd, Croydon boy Edwards, fighting for the first time after getting a first-round bye, had to fend off the hometown fighter in the first round and did so at times with some assurance as punches were exchanged but after three pulsating rounds, McFadden was given the unanimous decision.

We were quite amazed at the links you found between two countries that at first glance appear to be worlds apart. We started the week by talking to Lonely Planet editor Tom Hall . He told CNN's Max Foster that one of the most interesting links is that both countries have brilliant borders.
