A rainbow trout fished out of Holmes Lake in Lincoln, Nebraska, on Dec. 17, 2005, features a double mouth. Clarence Olberding, 57, of Lincoln, wasn't just telling a fisherman's fib when he called over another angler to look at the two-mouthed trout. It weighed in at about a pound. Olberding, who plans to smoke and eat the fish, said the hook was in the upper mouth, and that the lower one did not appear to be functional.

The remains of a suicide bomber's body are seen in the foreground at the
site of the explosion in southern Russia's city of Makhachkala, December 29,
2005.
A man blew himself up in the Muslim region of Dagestan on Thursday, near a gathering of people mourning a security services officer who was
killed two days ago.
There were no other casualties but the bomber himself.

[size=18]Bollywood to showcase Islam in movie on London bombings[/size]
MUMBAI (AFP) - Bollywood filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt will soon start shooting a film about the July suicide bombings in London that left 56 people dead in a bid to show Islam as a religion of peace.
"The movie is inspired by the London bombings and my son will make his film debut by playing the key role of the suicide bomber who is of Asian origin," Bhatt told AFP on Wednesday.
He said the shooting had a 50 million rupee (1.1 million dollar) budget and will start in June, adding "I am aiming for a December 2006 release."
"I have been researching on the script since the bombings and through the movie I plan to highlight that Islam is a religion of peace and not dreadful as it is perceived by the world," Bhatt said.
"I will attempt to bring out the virtues of Islamic living and also show how the state (government) can sometimes be a demon. The film will delve into the heart and mind of a suicide bomber."
His latest movie "Kalyug" revolved around a porn racket in Mumbai, the entertainment capital of India.
Bhatt's 2003 skin-flick "Murder", based on Hollywood's "Unfaithful", was a big box office hit.

I can't see this going down well...
I would have expected more impact if released in july...
and it depends on how the film is.

It'll be another one of those films you can't watch with your parents.
Expect naughty scenes laced with religious iconography.
This is where Bin Laden is hiding.

[b]Pakistan's undeclared war[/b]
For Pakistan's powerful military and the rugged Pashtun tribesmen, the South Waziristan region, near the border with Afghanistan, is a virtual war zone.
The vast mountainous region remains out of bound for non-locals. Journalists have been barred from the area, and the main town of Wana looks like a military garrison.
Almost daily skirmishes, landmine explosions, and use of heavy artillery and occasional aerial bombing, makes it a deadly conflict zone.
The latest military offensive in which air force bombers and gunship helicopters pounded an alleged training camp of suspected al-Qaeda militants, has resulted in heavy casualties. And it has taken the conflict to an area that until now had remained relatively peaceful.
This was the third time in recent weeks that the military bombed suspected militant hideouts. It has given a new and a more serious dimension to the security operation within the country.
Until now, aerial bombing has never been used to crush an armed insurgency in the country.
No end in sight
The military may not have suffered any serious casualties in the latest offensive, largely because it used air power and long-range rockets. But since the present conflict began in March, scores of soldiers have been killed, including officers.
Dozens of foreign and local militants have also been killed. But it is becoming increasingly clear that the victims of this undeclared war are the local tribesmen and their families, who have been caught in the crossfire.
In some ways it suggests that the military's assessments about the fighting strength of the militants, and the risk to civilians, were wrong.
So what will be the outcome of this bloody conflict, which does not seem to have an immediate end? No-one seems to have an answer.
The military offensive had been part of the overall war against al-Qaeda.
The US-led forces have largely been operating across the border in Afghanistan, and Islamabad admits, have also been assisting the Pakistani troops in surveillance and communication.
The co-ordinated effort is largely aimed at capturing top al-Qaeda leaders Osama Bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahri. The men, and many of their close associates, are widely believed to be hiding in and perhaps operating out of the area.
Tribal groups angry
Since the start of operation, the military authorities have firmly established that a large number of Uzbek, Chechen and Arab militants were in the area.
Battle-hardened tribesmen have taken the military action as an attack on their sovereignty, and have been putting up stiff resistance.
Most parts of the semi-autonomous tribal region have traditionally resisted the presence of foreign forces, including Pakistani troops.
It was in July 2002 that Pakistani troops, for the first time in 55 years, entered the Tirah Valley in Khyber tribal agency. Soon they were in Shawal valley of North Waziristan, and later in South Waziristan.
This was made possible after long negotiations with various tribes, who reluctantly agreed to allow the military's presence on the assurance that it would bring in funds and development work.
But once the military action started in South Waziristan a number of Waziri sub-tribes took it as an attempt to subjugate them.
Attempts to persuade them into handing over the foreign militants failed, and with an apparently mishandling by the authorities, the security campaign against suspected al-Qaeda militants turned into an undeclared war between the Pakistani military and the rebel tribesmen.
Some analysts say it is a no-win situation for the Pakistani troops. They cannot abandon the operation half-way, but are now having to use bombers and gunship helicopters against what was earlier described as a "handful of foreign militants and some local miscreants".
Relations between the authorities and local tribesmen have deteriorated to such an extent that the troops may remain bogged down long after all the foreign militants have been eliminated or flushed out of the region.
Thousands of troops have been deployed in Waziristan
[b]Waziristan: Bin Laden's hiding place?[/b]
There is growing world attention on the remote Pakistani tribal region of South Waziristan as efforts continue to locate Osama Bin Laden and other key al-Qaeda and Taleban suspects.
However, so far no senior al-Qaeda or Taleban figure has been caught in this semi-autonomous area where the Pakistani army beefed up its presence after the US intervention in neighbouring Afghanistan in October, 2001.
There are persistent reports that sympathetic Pashtun tribesmen in the area are providing fugitives with shelter and support.
In the latest government move to pin them down, the Ahmadzai Wazir tribe was fined $95,000 under a local law of collective responsibility.
The tribe's offence was to fail to stop rocket attacks against the Pakistan army and the paramilitary Frontier Corps deployed in South Waziristan.
Relations between tribal elders and the military have been strained recently over the deaths of a number of civilians in a tragic shooting incident blamed on soldiers and described by the government as a case of "mistaken fire."
Following angry complaints from the local community, the government was quick to constitute a three-member committee to inquire into the 28 February incident.
But the probe is unlikely to satisfy the tribesmen because the committee's three members are military and civil officers who the tribesmen say cannot be expected to give an independent report.
The deaths of the civilians, six of whom were Pakistani tribesmen and six Afghan refugees, has fuelled tension in the area and made it even more difficult for the army to win the hearts and minds of the tribal people while pursuing al-Qaeda and Taleban suspects.
Homes demolished
Pakistan has pursued the classic carrot and stick approach in its seven Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), including South Waziristan, in a bid to seek tribal support for the US-led war on terrorism.
A record number of development projects, some funded by the US, have been initiated in the under-developed tribal region to improve education, health and communication facilities.
But tribes that refuse to cooperate have been punished with the demolition of homes, sealing of shops and business, seizure of vehicles and dismissals from government jobs.
Tribal elders have already delivered 60 out of 123 tribesmen on a wanted list accused of sheltering suspects. They have promised to step up efforts to surrender the rest.
The strategy of the authorities seems to revolve around interrogating the suspects and locating al-Qaeda and Taleban fugitives through information provided by them.
At the same time, the army's Quick Reaction Force, comprising commandoes and equipped with helicopter gunships and artillery, has taken part in four military operations in South Waziristan.
Military spokesmen say that the force killed eight al-Qaeda suspects, including Osama Bin Laden's Arab-Canadian aide Ahmad Saeed Khadar, in one operation last October.
The army has lost 16 soldiers to date in encounters with the militants. Unknown militants have launched rockets against army camps four times in the past two months.
Since the US military intervention in neighbouring Afghanistan in October, 2001 more than 70,000 Pakistani soldiers and militiamen have been deployed throughout Pakistan's tribal areas and along the 2,500 kilometre border with Afghanistan.
The deployment was done first at the request of the US to plug the escape routes of al-Qaeda and Taleban members fleeing across the border first from Tora Bora cave region in December 2001, and later from other Afghan border provinces.
Last July, Pakistani troops - for the first time since Pakistan's creation in 1947 - entered the Tirah valley in Khyber tribal region, the Shawal valley in North Waziristan, and Mohmand agency and extended the writ of the government in these lawless areas.
And now it is South Waziristan that finds itself under the microscope.
Until this operation leads to the capture or death of Osama Bin Laden, South Waziristan looks set to remain prominent in the world's media.
[b]Many dead in Waziristan violence [/b]
Eight soldiers and eight other people have been killed in separate incidents in Pakistan's tribal North Waziristan area, reports say.
The paramilitary soldiers came under attack from militants at an army checkpoint, the army says.
Elsewhere eight people were killed when military helicopters attacked a house, residents of the area say.
The army has been battling Islamic militants in the Waziristan region for the last three years.
Taleban and al-Qaeda fighters fled into the area after the American-led invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.
Tens of thousands of Pakistani soldiers are deployed in the area.
'Soldiers missing'
The attack on the newly-established army checkpoint took place at around midnight, the army says, about 24 km (15 miles) east of the main town in North Waziristan, Miran Shah.
"There were eight casualties. There were a few missing soldiers as well, of whom a few have come back. There are a few still missing," military spokesman Maj Gen Shaukat Sultan said.
Reports say the attackers were armed with assault rifles and rockets.
In the other incident, people in the village of Saidgai, 12 km (eight miles) north of Miran Shah, say military helicopters opened fire on a house overnight.
"Helicopters bombarded the house late Friday night, leaving eight people dead," tribal elder Salimullah said, the AFP news agency reports.
He also said a number of people were injured.
The army says it is investigating the incident.
In December a man described by the government as a top al-Qaeda commander, Egyptian-born Abu Hamza Rabia, was killed in North Waziristan.
Officials said that he and four others died when their own explosives blew up. Local people said their house came under helicopter gunfire.
