Benigni's latest film tackles Iraq war
ROME — Like the Oscar-winning "Life Is Beautiful," Roberto Benigni's new film, "La Tireg la la Neve (The Tiger and the Snow)" , is a comedy set against a tragic backdrop — the war in Iraq.
The movie is an anti-war statement in Benigni's preferred style — a love story driven by the 52-year-old actor-director's exuberant and sometimes slapstick humor.
"While certain modern works on modern wars or wars of any time go to the head or are powerful as documentaries, this I think goes to the heart," he said. "And that is more dangerous, stronger."
Benigni stars as an Italian poet who travels to Iraq to save the love of his life.
Jagger denies claim of habit changes
LONDON — Mick Jagger says his girlfriend, stylist L'Wren Scott, isn't trying to rehab the Rolling Stones' choice of clothing and smoking habits.
"We have not had any disagreements about clothes, smoking or L'Wren, and this is all very hurtful for her," the 62-year-old rocker said in a statement Tuesday.
He issued the statement after British newspaper reports suggested Scott had angered band members by giving fashion tips and urging them to stop smoking.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for
Wednesday, Oct. 5, 2005: Your emotional and financial generosity draw many people. You can be hard on others this year, but also on yourself. Re-evaluate expectations, friendships and goals. Perhaps what you want is no longer reflective of who you are. You have a natural talent that could help you make money, if you don't go hogwild with spending. The tendency to go to extremes marks your year. A child or loved one might be pulling the wool over your eyes, and you might not care. If you are single, a relationship takes on a magical quality, though at times there might be glimmers of reality. If you are attached, you adore your sweetie and always see him or her in the best possible light. Work with SCORPIO to make money.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
A partner or associate needs to discuss what is on his or her mind, even if you would rather not. A conversation could be quite healing, as long as you both are clear about what is said. An element of confusion runs through the day. Tonight: A one-on-one talk.
★★★ How you approach others could allow even more good feelings to evolve. In fact, much that is said and done right now could be very healing. A boss could be confusing, as usual. Avoid difficult situations if possible. Tonight: Happy at home.
★★★ You have determination on your side. Sometimes even you can be hardheaded. Know when to let others rule the roost and make the decisions. Curb a tendency to overindulge, especially if frustrated. Tonight: Listen to great music.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
**** Your imagination could take you down an unusual path, introduce you to a new friend or energize your relationship. Don't take a financial risk. What occurs can only backfire. Avoid money matters. Tonight: Playful doesn't need to cost.
★★★ You could cause yourself problems by being negative. You have many serious issues on your mind, but don't allow these situations to flow into other areas of your life. Confusion
surrounds relationships. You can be sure that you are not seeing the whole person. Tonight: Mosey on home.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
***** Speak your mind, and others might react strongly. You could feel a bit down. Your imagination and your need to pitch in come out. Though these gifts bring satisfaction, you need to be aware of your own needs. Tonight: Share your caring.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★ Your finances can take a pleasant turn with effort and discipline. You could feel like you have to give up something that is very important to you. Brainstorm with a creative pal and see other paths to the same end. Tonight: Gather bills. Is your budget holding together?
***** You might feel tension left and right. You also can, and might, choose to ignore what is going on. You might be carrying too many responsibilities. Think of ways to lighten your burden. Tonight: Talk to someone about ways to make your life easier.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

not getting the whole story. In fact, someone might be intentionally holding back. Your sixth sense kicks in. It is important to not be reactive and to look at others with understanding. Tonight: The less said the better.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★ Others are disposed to give you what you want and need. If you are in touch with your feelings about financial and security needs, you can negotiate. Otherwise, an associate could rain on your parade. Don't let him. Tonight: Where the gang is.
AQUARIUS (Jan, 20-Feb, 18)
AUDIANCIS (Jan. 24-Feb. 10)
* You might not be present with the moment. This might not bother you, but it could cause others to be frustrated. Tune in to a boss or higher-up who can impact you, for your sake. Your imagination finds waves of handling a problem. Tonight: Out late.
★★★ Try to get out of yourself even if you are tired and run ragged. Know when to say that you've had enough and cut the day short. You might need to take some time off. Consider what you would do with a day off. Tonight: Relax to a movie.
