Bombs kill 4 anti-al-Qaida fighters in Iraq (AP)

BAGHDAD ? Iraqi police and health officials say two roadside bombs have killed four anti-al-Qaida Sunni militiamen north of Baghdad.

A police officer said Sunday the first bomb went off next to a passing patrol of the pro-government fighters, known as Sahwa or Awakening Councils. He said the second bomb hit another patrol rushing to the scene few minutes later, killing two others. Three Sunni fighters were injured.

The attack took place near the town of Mishahda, 20 miles (30 kilometers) north of Baghdad.

A doctor in a nearby hospital confirmed the casualty figures.

Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity as they were not authorized to release information.

LG seeks ban on South Korean BMW and Audi sales, sticks out its LED lit tongue at Osram

Wouldn't it be nice if we lived in a world where we all just got along, people worked for the thrill of it, and knowledge was free? Yeah, fat chance dreamers. 'Sue', our new millennium's most oft-used verb, is getting some heavy play at the hands of the tech industry. The latest court room combatants? Why, that'd be LG Group and Osram. You see, once upon a time LG was late to the LED patent game, and was content to fork over the cash to Osram for use of its tech. Skip to now, and the electronics giant's claiming it can get its lighting goods elsewhere, picking from a plethora of relevant IP-holding companies and combining that with its own patents. Despite having already countersued Osram in July to prevent the import of that company's allegedly infringing products into South Korea, LG's gathered its legal arsenal once again to block the sale of Audis and BMWs throughout the entire country -- cars that include Osram's LED tech. It's hard to imagine the courts would grant such a wide-sweeping ban on major auto players' bread-and-butter. And all grandstanding aside, it's more likely the two fisticuffing parties will come to some sort of revised financial agreement.

Tips For Hiring Destination Wedding Photographers ? Prudent Articles

Nuptial ceremony planning seems simple. It?s harder than most assume. It might get even more complicated when taking vows in a foreign place. If you are planning the event yourself, need to know the secrets about budget and style before hiring your destination wedding photographers.

First point to consider is budget. Many choose to set aside about ten percent of overall estimated expenses for photos, but you might feel more is necessary. When deciding, it could be important to ask about the picture format. Some photographers use the ?JPEG? format, while others use the ?RAW? format.

You also need to decide if you are going to hire near the location or going to pay someone to travel to the locale. Paying someone to travel may cost more. In addition, some photographers charge a service fee and for prints. Others let you choose what prints you want and where you print them.

Style is the second thing to be considered. There are 3 styles of wedding photographs. Photojournalist style is a candid natural record of the event. Traditional style is where all shots are posed. Portrait journalism is a mixture of both photojournalist and traditional style. The traditional style may require less time overall.

Looking at portfolios may be a good idea. Also ask how many pictures were taken per event in the portfolios. If over 100 pictures were taken but under 10 photos were sold or printed you may want to look for another photographer.

Nuptial photos may be more important than the cake. Being informed about hiring a destination wedding photographers may result in better photographic memories. Not knowing the information above may lead to regrets. Read more about: Destination Wedding Photographers

Ringer: 1-03 ?If ... - Tv Food and Drink - Brought to You by Gary Green

?It?s not easy being the more successful twin,? my identical brother Dax sighed into the phone while packing for Shanghai. ?The expectations are enormous! If I don?t have a new gadget in the kitchen to point out to mom and dad every time they come over, I can literally see the worry forming on their faces. It?s like? what?s he doing with himself? There?s three open shelves and last time there were only two. ?Has he lost sight of his potential???

I was only half-listening. I was in the middle of trying to fish out my favorite South Park magnet from underneath the fridge using a grabby thing I?d made out of a wire coat hanger thanks to a video I saw on WikiTips.com.

?It?s murder!? he continued. ??All this material accumulation becomes a prison after a while. I hope you don?t hate hearing this, but there are people in this world who just have too much going for them.?

Dax is fond of saying, ?I hope you don?t hate hearing this,? just before informing me of some painful nugget of knowledge he thinks I?m not aware of yet, like that I apparently swing a bat like a Park Avenue wedding planner, or that when I sing it triggers the mating urge in donkeys.

I know that there are many out there who dream about having a twin and fantasize over all the fun that comes with it? inventing secret languages, playing pranks on teacher, the unique opportunities in the world of on-line porn. But it?s far more work than those people imagine, especially when you feel like your twin is a David Beckham smile and you?re a set of plastic Halloween hillbilly teeth.

It?s been my personal experience that the grass has always been greener on the other side of the amniotic sac.

Of course, what twin has it perfect? Here we have?Ringer?s Bridget (Sarah Michelle Gellar), thinking that by assuming the identity of her presumed dead sister Siobhan, she?ll be able to avoid the mob boss out to kill her, and then it turns out that someone is trying to kill Siobhan as well. ?Bridget is clearly not aware of the ?The Gilligan Rule,? a principle that applies to all modern-day television characters. ?Originating in 1979, The Gilligan Rule comes from the very first?Gilligan?s Island reunion movie where the castaways finally all got rescued from the dreaded island only to take a second cruise celebrating their good fortune and ending up getting shipwrecked all over again. ?Had Bridget been up on her crappy tv watching as a kid, she?d have known to leave well enough alone. ?She?d also know how to pick up radio reception with her dental fillings and how to build a vaudeville stage out of palm fronds and puka shells, two things that could have come in handy should Ringer get picked up for a back nine order.

The list of people potentially out to kill Siobhan is longer than the list of Kat Von D. body piercings. ?But Bridget quickly zeroes in on Siobhan?s hothead of a husband, Andrew as the most likely candidate. ?Not only does Bridget discover that Siobhan, before disappearing, had visited a high-priced divorce attorney and hinted at being the victim of physical abuse at his hands, Andrew is also in possession of a copy of the photo of Siobhan which Bridget discovered in the pocket of the hit man sent to kill her.

I like what Ioan Grufudd is doing with the character of Andrew, walking a careful line between the menacing and the mild. But frankly, the heavy-handedness with which this episode set about convincing us of Andrew?s guilt makes his innocence seem all the more likely. ??It?s as obvious as that bald patch I spotted on the top of your head,? Dax threw in. ?I hope you don?t hate hearing that.? he added. ?It really sucks being half an inch taller than you.?

Meanwhile over in France, Siobhan is certainly not letting being presumed dead get in the way of her scoring herself a little ?C?est Si Bon? with former Knight Rider Justin Bruening. It was good to finally see a little of Siobhan prior to the last two minutes of an episode, but I can?t help but think? if I was trying to keep people from discovering I was alive, I might avoid dressing to the nines and positioning myself at the end of a swanky Parisian bar waiting for a the world?s youngest international banker to come in and tickle my dress shields. ?But seeing as in reality I?m currently wearing sweat shorts and a ?Generra Concept? t-shirt from 1986 while foraging through dust bunnies under my refrigerator trying to retrieve a magnetic Eric Cartman with a bent coat hanger, maybe I won?t judge lifestyle choices just now.

The one clue Bridget has to the identity of the person responsible for the attempts on her life is the cell phone she pinched off the dead hit man?s body. ?Desperate to get that phone back is the mystery man who managed to corner Bridget in the abandoned building owned by Andrew mid-way through the episode. ?This gentleman?s?evil intent is telegraphed to us by his eye bags, ill-conceived haircut and slightly constipated expression. ?Clearly, this is a man who has paid close attention to the WikiTips.com video, ?How to be a Successful Miscreant Henchman.? ?As she managed to escape from his clutches in this episode, I think it?s safe to say that there is going to be a lot more Constipation in Bridget?s future.

Between the story points surrounding the true identity of Siobahn/Bridget?s attempted killer, we slogged through some minor financial drama with Andrew?s company that has yet to amount to anything, along with FBI Agent Machado?s growing suspicion that ?Siobahn? knows more about Bridget?s whereabouts than she claims, and in the last moments, Siobahn?s discovery of what we and Bridget have known for three weeks now ? she?s preggers. ?Thankfully though, the producers of Ringer are keeping those stories on the back burner while directing most of their focus on Bridget?s slow procession to the truth of her sister?s life, delicately intertwined with her own growing attraction to it.

And despite her ignorance of ?The Gilligan Rule,? I can?t actually say I?d do anything differently if I were Bridget. ?After all, Dax has it pretty good. ?If I had the kind of life where I could spend the day looking for a brand new refrigerator, instead of looking for something that lets me stick coupons on the front of the old one, I might just let a few constipated hit men take their best shot at me too.

Auto Title Loans ? How Much Can I Borrow ... - Financial Crossing

The total amount of money that you can borrow for an auto title loan will depend on how valuable the lender considers your car to be. It is a good idea to personally do some research to find out how valuable your car is. If the lender says the value of the car is roughly the same, than you know you are dealing with an honest lender. In order to take out an auto title loan, you will need to have paid off most or all of your original auto loan.

In some cases, a car equity loan lender will ask for financial information such as your available income. They may check your credit score, although bad credit does not necessarily mean you will be refused. Instead, a bad credit score is usually a reason for the lender to charge you a higher interest rate.

In order to find out how much your car is worth, you can use the Kelly Blue Book (KBB) valuation system in order to determine the value of your used vehicle. Most lending companies will offer you a loan with a similar value. Another option is to find out what the current wholesale value of your vehicle is. A fair lender will offer you a value between twenty and fifty percent of the wholesale value.

The reason that a lending company will not give you a hundred percent of the wholesale value is that lenders need to take into account the cost of repossessing and selling the vehicle. If you are incapable of paying back the fifty percent you borrow, or you really need the full value of the vehicle, it is a better idea to try to simply sell the vehicle instead.

Every state has a different set of laws regarding how auto loans can be set up. In some cases, smaller loans may have a fixed income rate. You may also find that you are charged a higher interest rate if you take out a larger loan.

Getting an auto title loan is often a better option than an unsecured personal loan. If you are in a financial crunch and don?t want to borrow against your home, borrowing against your car will usually offer you better interest rates and larger volumes of cash than unsecured personal loans. This is true even if you have a good credit score. So long as you know you can pay back the loan, you will not lose your car.
