Collectible watches


Then director Dean Devlin took the stage and announced that they had a couple of special guests in the audience; a group of professional thieves whom they hired to teach the Leverage actors how to do what they do! Yikes! The guys who had been scanned started checking their pockets and instead of finding their pockets picked, they found something new, a Three Card Monte set with the Leverage logo on the front of the pack. If you've never seen a magician work close-up magic, it truly is astounding. These 'thieves' spent the night lifting wallets, watches and rings and one even made a nickel melt and bend in a woman's hand. Don't worry, all personal property was returned to the owner right after the lift, because an illusion is no fun if no one knows it happened. Leverage comes to TNT on December 7 and I'll have the full scoop for you a little later on this month. Now let's look at tonight's TV schedule


Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev visited Turkey on November 5 and 6 as his first official trip abroad since reelection, underscoring the two countries special relationship. While traditional, that relationship has evolved substantially during Ilham Aliyevs presidency and is no longer asymmetrical. As he remarked during his visit to Ankara, Turkey supported Azerbaijan during hard times, but in the meantime Azerbaijan has become stronger and is contributing fully to the bilateral relationship (www.day.az via ANS-Press, November 6). Aliyev and Minister of Foreign Affairs Elmar Mammadyarov synchronized watches with their Turkish counterparts with regard to accelerating talks on the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict and follow-up negotiations. In statements issued during Aliyevs visit, Turkish President Abdullah Gul and the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed, apparently without reservations, the Moscow Declaration of November 2 about a settlement of the Karabakh conflict signed by Aliyev, Armenian President Serge Sarkisian, and their host Russian President Dmitry Medvedev (see EDM, November 4). According to the two Turkish statements, the Moscow Declaration fits in well with Turkeys vision about resolving that conflict peacefully, on the basis of international law and direct high-level dialogue between Azerbaijan and Armenia. As a member of the OSCEs Minsk Group, which is mandated to provide a framework for negotiations in that conflict, Turkey will continue to work with both parties toward a solution. According to both Turkish statements, the Platform for Security and Stability in the Caucasusa concept that Ankara outlined in mid-August, prompted in part by Russias invasion of Georgiais consistent with the Moscow Declaration and can also be used as a basis for negotiations in the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict (Anatolia News Agency, November 5; Turkish Daily News, November 6)
