Karolina Kurkova Named as the Sexiest Woman in the World
Czech born model Karolina Kurkova has been dubbed the Sexiest Woman in the World by E! entertainment television. We have to applaud their choice because “she of the mysterious belly button” is definitely at the top of anyone’s list. The recent super sexy 2008 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show definitely showcased Kurkova’s assets to the Nth degree.
Peruvian fashion photographer Mario Testino said: “The proportions of her body and her face, as well as her energy level, make her a model who would fit into almost any moment.” Marc Jacobs has said: “She has an angelic look with a dark side, she’s sweet and fun and looks like she could be an evil bewitching child.”
Coming in second spot is equally stunning Bar Rafaeli. The rest of the field, in the order of their 2008 ranking, are Angelina Jolie, Gisele Bundchen, Scarlett Johansson, Adriana Lima, Heidi Klum, Penelope Cruz, Manuela Arcuri and Shakira
Penelope Cruz Wants 20 Kids
Penelope Cruz wants 20 kids - she'd better get started! The Spanish actress has always wanted children - it's been a childhood dream to have a big family. Although, right now, she's enjoying her jet-setting career and isn't quite ready to play the role of "mom."
The 33-year-old says, "I'd love to have kids. Maybe I'll adopt about 20 children - that's been my dream since I was a little girl.
"I'd love children, but at the moment I'm happy with my career. If one day I have a baby I'm not going to be able to work like I do now. I can be in London one day, Miami the next, New York after that, then back to L.A.
"I travel more than some pilots!"
Cruz says when she does become a parent, she won't be giving up work entirely. "I still want to work when I have children, but not as much as I do now."
Where Shilpa Shetty Stays
No one knows where Shilpa Shetty stays now a days. Shilpa Shetty is fast turning into another Rekha. Like the mysterious Madam Re, Shilpa too has acquired the status of being enigmatic. No one has any clue where she currently stays.
Is it London or Mumbai? And to top it all her non-availability to the media has made matters even worse.
"She wanted to create the aura that she isn't easily available to anyone, especially to the media".

Bangalore New Airport Changed the History of Devanahalli
The State High Level Clearance Committee (SHLCC) chaired by Governor Rameshwar Thakur on Monday approved 28 mega projects, including seven new special economic zones (SEZ), five IT parks and two integrated townships, worth over Rs 49,000 crore in one go.
A majority of these big-ticket projects are coming up in and around Bangalore — four SEZs, three IT parks and two townships. But it is not clear how much farm land will be acquired for these projects. According to an official who was present in the committee meeting, a minimum of 25 acres have been sectioned for an ITES SEZ.
Though such a major policy decision was taken, there was no official briefing about it to the media. Besides the governor, all his three advisors and top officials of the Commerce and Industries department were present at the SHLCC meeting held at Vidhana Soudha.
Hundreds of representatives of investing firms had arrived and they gave presentations on their projects.
An airport-based multi-product SEZ by Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) at Devanahalli (Rs 3,384.65 crore), an IT/ITES SEZ by Indus Megapolis IT Parks at Hoskote (Rs 215.25 crore), an IT/ITES/BPO SEZ by Gokuldas Images Infrastructure at Devanahalli (Rs 1,040 crore) and an IT/ITES SEZ by Milestone Buildcon in Bangalore north (Rs 710 crore) are among the major SEZ projects.
Among integrated townships: At Anekal by Shivakar Infrastructure (Rs 1,484 crore) and at Bangalore east taluk by Aasia Estate Developers (Rs 1,700 crore). Other projects cleared include steel plants, education institutions, power generation plans, cement factories and others.
With the construction of new Bengaluru international airport, Devanahalli has emerged as the most sought-after destination for investors evidenced by the fact that three major SEZs cleared in the SHLCC were close to the airport.
Can such a major policy decision be taken when there is no elected government? To this question, a top official in the government said: “We are not violating any rule. We are not forcing anyone to part with their land for industrial projects. The land is being acquired with the consent of land owners. No government land, no agricultural land, no green belt nor KIADB land is given for the new SEZs. We are only trying to facilitate industrial growth.”
