(CBS) There  was  a lot of talk of sickness on the New York red carpet  Wednesday night as  Academy Award winner Matt Damon was busy promoting his latest film, “Contagion,” an ensemble “Outbreak”-style thriller that  also stars Oscar-winners Marion Cotillard and 온라인카지노 Kate Winslet. We spoke with Damon at the premiere and he told us that there was a great deal of germaphobia among cast and crew on the set.

Damon must then protect the rest of his family from this deadly outbreak. The actor said  he chose this project to reunite with one of his longtime collaborators, Academy Award-winning director Steven Soderbergh. “We’ve been working together a lot so, obviously, we’re used to each other by now. We’ve done six movies together,”  Damon said. “He’s a really special director. I’ve worked with a lot of them and I’m really lucky to have worked with the people I’ve worked with…I’d be lucky to get a job with any of them again. And Steven, for some reason, keeps hiring me.” In recent interviews,...

(AP) CAIRO – Egypt’s president on Saturday stressed the need for his country to have a bigger role in international affairs, using his first local television interview to urge the Syrian government to end the carnage coursing through Cairo’s onetime ally. “The Syrian regime needs to understand that the continuation of bloodshed goes against all laws, desires, history and humanity,” Mohammed Morsi said in the hour-long interview, broadcast on state TV. The one-on-one interview addressed a range of issues facing the new president, who was sworn into office on June 30 in the country’s first free presidential elections. He assumed the post after a rocky transitional period governed by the country’s military, which took power after last year’s uprising that ousted longtime President Hosni Mubarak. Egypt’s uprising inspired others in the region, including in Syria. More in After the Arab Spring “Egypt is not on the sidelines of this problem. There is a positive and personal relationship between the Egyptian people and the Syrian people,” Morsi said, in a reference to the shortly-lived alliance that ended in 1961 between Egypt and Syria, when both nations shared the same flag as part of a union. “The Syrian struggle pains us now, pains all people of the region.” Rebels move command center from Turkey to SyriaAssad: Syrian rebels will be defeated Syria’s bloody 18-month conflict, which activists say has killed nearly...

(CBS) It’s almost like a new show, “Two and Half Men.” Except it’s not. But the good news is, series stars Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones seem to like Charlie Sheen’s replacement, Ashton Kutcher. The stars of “Two and a Half Men” are scrutinizing a publicity photo depicting them as a tuxedo-clad trio sharing a vintage microphone. Ashton Kutcher is in the center of the shot, flanked by Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones on the other. Charlie Sheen is out of the picture. Pictures: Ashton Kutcher “It’s nice,” offered Cryer, adding a query to Jones: “But that’s not your hand, is it? I believe they had too big a black spot there and they photoshopped in a hand.” “That’s not my head, is it?” said Kutcher. Oh, those kidders. But the silliness carries a message: The three actors are a comfortable fit with each other and for the revamped “Two and a Half Men,” which returns Sept. 19 for its ninth season, minus the fired Sheen. Executive producer Chuck Lorre talked with TV Guide about the upcoming season and the decision to cast Kutcher instead of a 40-something actor. TV Guide Lorre and the Warner Bros. studio clashed bitterly with their erratic, hard-partying star before dumping him last March and cutting the season short. The task now is to salvage what has reigned as TV’s top-rated comedy....

Former Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega arrived in France on Tuesday to face money laundering charges after being extradited from the United States. A new legal battle will now begin for the former strongman, who was ousted in a U.S. invasion in 1989 and went on to spend years in a prison outside Miami for drug racketeering. Noriega arrived in Paris’ Charles de Gaulle airport Tuesday morning, according to a judicial official who was not authorized to be named. He came on a direct flight from Miami. Noriega will face a prosecutor to hear the French charges, and then see a judge in Paris who will determine whether he should be jailed pending an eventual trial, said Noriega’s lawyer Yves Leberquier. Justice Ministry spokesman Guillaume Didier said Noriega could go on trial within two months. On Monday, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton signed a so-called surrender warrant for Noriega after a federal judge in Miami lifted a stay blocking the extradition last month. French authorities claim Noriega laundered some $3 million in drug proceeds by purchasing luxury apartments in Paris. Noriega was convicted in absentia, 예천출장샵 but France agreed to give him a new trial if he was extradited. One of Noriega’s lawyers in the U.S. said he had asked Clinton in a letter to reconsider sending him to Panama, which also has an outstanding request for the...

The egg artillery barrage ended when the attackers ran out of ammunition, at which point they moved in for hand to hand combat, reports CBS News correspondent Mark Phillips. Watch: Violence Erupts in Ukraine Parliament The agreement, reached last week by the two country’s presidents in a clear sign of Russia’s renewed influence in Ukraine, extends the fleet’s lease by 25 years after the old lease expires in 2017. Former President Viktor Yushchenko adamantly tried to move Ukraine out of Moscow’s shadow and closer to Western Europe during his five years in office. But his successor, Viktor Yanukovych, who took office in February, is more favorably inclined toward the Kremlin. The extension outraged Ukrainian nationalists who regard the fleet’s presence as tantamount to Russian occupation. “This is a permanent threat to Ukraine’s territorial integrity because the Black Sea Fleet is the outpost of the Russian state in Ukraine, which is conducting anti-Ukrainian policies and financing anti-Ukrainian projects. In general, this is the work of (Russian) special services on Ukrainian territory,” said Igor Derevyanko, one of several thousand demonstrators who gathered outside the parliament. The voting session was unruly even by the Ukrainian parliament’s notoriously freewheeling standards. Opponents of the measure threw eggs at parliament speaker Volodymyr Lytvyn as he opened the session and he spent much of the rest of it shielded by an umbrella held by an aide....
