Sebastian Faulks has emerged as the author chosen to write a new officially endorsed James Bond novel. The British Writer – whose books include Birdsong and Charlotte Gary – was commissioned by the Fleming estate last year but his identity was kept a secret. Now what’s in keeping the author’s name a secret, who ever it may be the person is not gonna be as famous as JK Rowling is in Britain. And people are not going to mob him because he is penning a James Bond novel. Devil May Care is set in “several of the world’s most thrilling cities” during the cold war. Tell you what, writing a James Bond novel or movie script is as easy as probably writing ‘A B C D’. Take a plot or steal a plot form an old movie and simply add some steamy scenes to the movie every 15-20 mins and you have the movie ready. Like we do not know how a James Bond flick would look like.

Former US vice president Al Gore, talk show host Oprah Winfrey and ex-UN secretary-general Kofi Annan are best suited to champion work to fight climate change, a 47-nation opinion poll has found. “For a dream ticket across all countries … Gore and Winfrey were the most selected overall” to alert public opinion to climate risks. Yeah, she keeps calling all these jerks at her show, why not ask them to make a pledge to do their bit to help save the climate and environmental damages that these Hollywood celebs keep constantly doing. They own these fat and big cars which are highly fuel guzzling and more so their movies too are so full of emitting toxic waste which I do not why we keep going to the theaters to see them spill. They also use these war planes to shoot in the movies, which again burns gallons of aviation fuel and emits harmful gasses. Oprah should certainly take up the issue with the celebs and ask them that they gonna do about the situation. But involving Hollywood means there is a risk that some of these questions may just be confined to trivial fashion.
