Dr Lynch
BILLIONAIRE Sir Philip Green fired back at his army of critics yesterday over tax — as he celebrated ten years at TOPSHOP. The high street tycoon announced a 25 per cent surge in profits at the ARCADIA empire that runs everything from Topman to Miss Selfridge and Dorothy Perkins. And he revealed Arcadia had paid ?591million in corporation tax over the decade since he bought it in 2002. The company has also shelled out ?1.3BILLION on rates for its shops. Becoming the latest high street veteran to hit out over rates, Sir Philip said: “Ten years ago we paid ,coach handbags?100million,coach outlet. “Now we have 200 additional shops and it’s ?150million — up 50 per cent!” “And almost every road we’re on in London has a hole in it because of roadworks. Purr-lease.” The tycoon — long criticised over his own tax record — was speaking a day after The Sun vowed to track the PM’s war on the economic wobble with our Keep Cam And Carry On campaign. Sir Philip called on high street rivals to stop moaning about the economy, insisting shoppers were fed up hearing about gloom and doom. He said: “If we sit there and cry and I put on my front window the Bank of England said ‘X’, it isn’t going to help me take any money. “Let’s be positive. We’re a private company and we have achieved a hell of a lot over the past ten years. We’ve invested a billion. Yes it’s challenging, it’s tough but if you talk to most people they are bored reading about it.” Yesterday’s results show profits rose 25 per cent to ?166.9million in the year to August. Topman was the star brand after selling 100,000 pairs of men’s chinos in one week in the run-up to Christmas last year. Sir Philip,louboutin shoes, who posed with US TV reality stars Kim and Kourtney Kardashian at a Dorothy Perkins fashion launch two weeks ago, said the big growth prospects were overseas and online. Internet sales in the past year are up 22 per cent — twice the rate of fierce rival, online clothing store ASOS. HP chiefs face a UK Lynching THE man dubbed “Britain’s Bill Gates” vowed to spank the Yanks yesterday — after being hammered by HEWLETT PACKARD. HP accused AUTONOMY founder Dr Mike Lynch on Tuesday of lying about the value of the business he sold to them for ,cheap christian louboutin?7billion a year ago. The FBI are said to be looking into the allegations. Dr Lynch, who left HP in May, told Sun City he had been used as a “scapegoat” for the US giant’s problems. He added HP’s chief Meg Whitman had no idea how to get the best out of the business her predecessor bought. Dr Lynch threatened legal action,Cheap Ugg Boots, saying: “My thought is not to let her get away with it.” He said ex-Autonomy people now at HP “were not happy” with Ms Whitman’s attack,christian louboutin sale. He claimed joining the US firm last year was like “getting on a plane where the pilots are fighting and the engines are on fire”. Running sprout of veg BRITS may be forced to eat SPANISH-grown Brussels sprouts this Christmas. MORRISONS yesterday warned a dire harvest had wiped out almost a third of the sprout crop this year. Bosses insisted Morrisons’ supplies should be fine — given the supermarket’s links to farmers in Lincolnshire. But they claimed rivals may have to import sprouts from Italy and Spain to stock their shelves. Adrian Ford, fresh produce manager, said: “The Spanish ones don’t even come close to the UK sprouts.” Morrisons has relaxed size and shape conditions on sprouts it buys from UK growers to ensure it has enough this Christmas. It typically sells 650 TONS of the veg in the run-up to December 25. The extreme weather this year has also seen the parsnip harvest fall 15 per cent. Wonga’s MP ‘sorry’ PAYDAY lender WONGA made a grovelling apology yesterday after a worker called an MP mentally unstable. Labour MP Stella Creasy, a major critic of Wonga, was dubbed “mental”, “nuts” and a “self-serving egomaniac” online. It followed claims at least one Wonga worker has been using Twitter to attack critics of the company. Bankers ‘fail firms’ BANKS are STILL failing Britain’s army of small firms, the Bank of England said yesterday,ugg boots uk.

Like a diabolically potent combination of Lionel Bart and Leni Riefenstahl, the movie version of Les Misérables has arrived, based on the hit stage show adaptation of Victor Hugo's novel set among the deserving poor in 19th-century France, which climaxes with the anti-monarchist Paris uprising of 1832,ralph lauren outlet online. Even as a non-believer in this kind of "sung-through", Iwas battered into submission by this mesmeric and sometimes compelling film, featuring a performance of dignity and intelligence from , and an unexpectedly vulnerable singing turn from that great, big, grumpy old bear,. With the final rousing chorus of "Do you hear the people sing?", the revolutionary-patriotic fervour is so bizarrely stirring,gucci outlet, you'll feel like marching out of the cinema, wrapped in the tricolour, and travelling to Russia to find Gérard Depardieu and tear him limb from limb. Just as some celebrities are so successful they come to be known only by their first names, this is known everywhere by its abbreviation: Lay-miz, impossible to say without a twinkle of camp. It's enjoyed staggering global success on stage since 1985. This version, directed by, of The King's Speech fame, has all the singing recorded live on set,Ralph Lauren Sale, with actors listening to a pianist via earpieces, and the orchestral soundtrack added later. The result is a bracing, rough-and-ready immediacy from performers who can and do hold a tune. Les Misérables tells the story of Valjean (Jackman),coach bags, a proud and decent man imprisoned for stealing bread to save his sister's family from starving. Once released, he is viciously pursued by police officer Javert (Crowe) for breaking the terms of his parole, but makes a Hardyesque career leap into respectability, becoming a mayor and factory owner. His path crosses that of his poor employee Fantine whose grownup daughter Cosette (Amanda Seyfried) is to fall fatefully inlove with revolutionary firebrand Marius (Eddie Redmayne) just as Paris erupts in violence, and as Valjean must make his final reckoning with Javert. Peter Bradshaw, Xan Brooks and Catherine Shoard review Les Misérables  It conquers its audience with weapons all its own: not passion so much as passionate sincerity, not power so much as overwhelming force. Every line, every note,louis vuitton outlet, every scene is belted out with diaphragm-quivering conviction and unbroken, unremitting intensity. The physical strength of this movie is impressive: an awe-inspiring and colossal effort, just like Valjean's as he lifts the flagpole at the beginning of the film,ugg boots sale. You can almost see the movie's muscles flexing and the veins standing out like whipcords on its forehead. At the end of 158 minutes, you really have experienced something. What exactly, I'm still not sure. But just as the inquisition got Galileo to recant just by showing him the instruments of torture, I felt that Hooper had stepped from the unparted curtains before the feature began,louis vuitton handbags, fixed my gaze, pointed at a large wringer he had brought on stage and said: "Whinge all you want. You're going through this." The most affecting scene comes in his movie's opening act, as Valjean is astonished and moved by the Christ-like charity of the Bishop (Colm Wilkinson) who takes him in,cheap christian louboutin shoes, and forgives him for attempting to steal silverware, making him a present of itand protecting him from arrest ("Ihave saved your soul for God"). Jackman sings a soliloquy directly to camera ("Why did I allow this man to touch my soul and teach me love?"), eyes blazing with a new knowledge. There's no doubt about it, this scene packs amassive punch. Other moments are less successful. Hathaway's fervent rendition of the standard I Dreamed a Dream, in extreme close-up, has been much admired, but for me her performance and appearance is a bit Marie Antoinette-ish. Her poverty-stricken character is supposed to have pitifully sold her teeth to a street dentist. Conveniently, this turns out to mean just her back teeth: her dazzlingly white front teeth are untouched. and Helena Bonham Carter are great as the dodgy innkeepers M and Mme Thénardier, but the crowd scenes have a thumbs-in-the-waistcoat feel,gucci shoes, and when smudgy-faced urchin Gavroche (Daniel Huttlestone) addresses grownups in Cockney as "my dear" then we really are in Jack Wild territory. The star is Jackman. But Crowe offers the most open, human performance I have seen from him. His singing is so sweetly unselfconscious that there is something paradoxically engaging about his Javert, even when he's being a cruel,Ugg Boots Sale UK, unbending law-officer and royalist spy. I'll never love Les Misérables the way its fans love it, and I'm agnostic about Claude-Michel Sch?nberg's surging score, with its strange, subliminal weepiness.

SPOILER ALERT: This blog is for those who are watching season one of on Channel 4. Don't read on if you haven't seen episodes one and two. Plane crashes! Mindbending plots! Mysterious strangers,christian louboutin shoes! Love,cheap gucci bags! Lust! Pretty people! Extra-terrestrials,louis vuitton outlet online! Pretty extra-terrestrials! With Lost long gone and the clock run down on 24, people have been searching for the Next Big Thing in event television. Is this it? Well, it is, literally if nothing else,cheap gucci handbags, Event television. But will it live up to its billing, or just be the new FlashForward? That's what we're here to find out, episode by episode, scene by escapist scene. The first hour: I Haven't Told You Everything Suave new US president, Elias Martinez (Blair Underwood), discovers the existence of a secret facility in Alaska called Mount Inostranka. It's a prison where 97 people – all under the leadership of steely redhead Sofia Maguire (Laura Innes) – are being held. Earnest Mr President considers closing down the facility, making it public, and releasing the detainees. His National Intelligence director Sterling advises against it. Thirteen months on, Prez Martinez is preparing for his big press conference, and we cut to a Caribbean cruise, where a handsome young swain called Sean is preparing to ask girlfriend Leila to marry him. But returning from a scuba trip, Sean finds that not only has Leila vanished, but he has no access to their room, or his ID and there's no record of either of them ever having been on the cruise. Sean somehow manages to find his way onto a plane, and attempts to hijack it… or rather to talk to the pilot — who happens to be Leila's father, Michael. Trouble is, Michael's busy flying his plane into President Martinez's press conference in what seems to be a crazed assassination attempt. Luckily (or perhaps not, we have no idea) the plane disappears in a flash of blue light just before impact. "They saved us" says Sofia. "Who? Who saved us?" asks Prez. "I haven't told you everything…" replies Sofia, teasingly. She's definitely got a head start on us – because at this point we've been watching for most of an hour, and no one's actually told us anything. The second hour: To Keep Us Safe The President, almost as confused as we are, is told that the Mount Inostranka detainees actually landed in 1944, when they were discovered by the US government and locked up. They're extra-terrestrials, apparently: 99%-plus genetically identical to humans, but they age almost impercepibly slowly. Like an army of Joan Rivers. The plane that disappeared in a flash of blue light reappears in an Arizona desert. Sean helps everybody off, discovers that Leila's dad was being blackmailed into his suicide mission and then — ominously — black helicopters arrive. Sean runs off, only to wake up in hospital, where a helpful nurse follows up on his cruiseship/Leila/flash of light/planecrash tale by phoning the local sheriff. Turns out Sean's wanted for cruise-ship murder; federal officers arrive and take him away,ugg boots uk sale. Sofia, ice-queen leader of the detainees becomes threatening when she suggests that after six decades, her group (including,polo ralph lauren, alarmingly, some who aren't detained) might be getting impatient. Consequently, the weaselly National Intelligence director orders a CIA agent to root out the hidden extra-terrestrials and deal with them appropriately. But 'appropriately' may be a movable concept… since Agent Simon Lee turns out (secretly) to be one of the very aliens he's told to hunt down. Awkward... Still, Lee's investigators happen upon the plane in the middle of the Arizona desert. By the time they get there, however, all the passengers are dead, lying just a few steps away from the aircraft. Events and fallout Main issue: the first hour – the original pilot – was just a long promo trailer. There wasn't a grain of information in there, or,polo ralph lauren, really, any characters. Situations were set up and personalities hinted at, but all it managed to produce, after 60 minutes, was an inflated sense of 'Coming next, the main feature!'. And the cliffhanger felt terribly uninventive,cheap christian louboutin shoes, too, since it seemed that the disappearing plane was either the work of aliens (reminiscent of V), mad scientists (Fringe) or time-travelling plane shenanigans (Lost). Luckily, the second hour perked up greatly, starting to head into the territory of a sort of pointy-eared 24. The Event feels like it's got promise – and certainly suggests there's a bigger, more interesting plot lurking in the story of Sofia's people. The power of an almost-immortal group who will orchestrate a plane-crash assassination plot in order to keep themselves hidden while working on some undisclosed objective? Interesting,coach handbags. I'm willing to stick with this a while longer to see how this mixture of answers and mystery progresses. All eventualities taken into account ? Mount Inostranka is where the prisoners are detained. Inostranka means 'female foreigner' in Russian. Meanwhile the cast is full of Oohwotseebinins – as in 'someone who has a memorable face but not quite enough of a remarkable body of work for you to be able to place them'. ? I assume we are simply to take it as a given that cruise ships are really popular among hot young 20-somethings with disposable income and not, as is generally perceived, solely the enclave of retirees. Excellent. ? Black helicopters are ALWAYS a bad sign. Whichever fool passenger was heard to say, "Look! Help is coming!" while pointing at the fleet of sinister whirlybirds has clearly never seen a Hollywood film before. Still, being killed minutes later probably set them straight. What do you think? Willing to keep watching?
