A department spokesman said the rapper, whose birth name is Cordozar Calvin Broadus Jr., applied for a visa in July and the department carried out a preliminary assessment. Snoop Dogg and fellow hip-hop star Ice Cube plan an Australian concert tour in October. "The department has now decided to do a full assessment of the character of Mr. Broadus, and the department has begun this assessment," the spokesman said, speaking on condition of anonymity as required by the department. The spokesman said the rapper had visited Australia three times in 1998, 2006 and 2007, without incident, though he did overstay his visa by two days on the last visit. Snoop Dogg withdrew his application for a visa to Australia last year when he failed to pass the character requirements. Singer Snoop Dogg poses at the 2008 CM Awards in Nashville, Tenn.

Todav's Cryptoquip Clue: O equals T BOLLYWOOD BOLLYWOOD Warner Bros. sues film for copying Harry Potter MUMBAI, India — Bollywood producers set to release a film called "Hari Puttar: A Comedy of Terrors" are working to fend off a lawsuit filed by Warner Bros. that shows the movie title hews too closely to their mega-famous boy wizard franchise. While Bollywood films often borrow liberally from Western movies, producers of "Hari Puttar: A Comedy of Terrors" say their movie bears no resemblance to any film in the "Harry Potter" series. Munish Purii, chief executive officer of Mumbai-based producer Mirchi Movies., said Hari is a common name in India and "puttar" is Punjabi for son. The film is not a tale of a wizard, but rather a story of an Indian boy left home alone, who fights off burglars when his parents go away on vacation — a plot more reminiscent of the film "Home Alone," starring Macaulay Culkin.
