Scoop is a 1938 novel by the English writer Evelyn Waugh, a satire of sensationalist journalism and foreign correspondents.
William Boot, a young man who lives in genteel poverty far from the iniquities of London, is contributor of nature notes to Lord Copper's Daily Beast, a national daily newspaper. He is dragooned into becoming a foreign correspondent when the editors mistake him for a fashionable novelist, a remote cousin, John Courtney Boot. He is sent to the fictional East African state of Ishmaelia to report the crisis there. Lord Copper believes it 'a very promising little war' and proposes 'to give it fullest publicity.' There, despite his total ineptitude, he accidentally manages to get the "scoop" of the title. When he returns, however, credit is diverted to the other Boot, and he is left to return to his bucolic pursuits, much to his relief.
The novel is partly based on Waugh's own experience working for the Daily Mail, when he was sent to cover Benito Mussolini's expected invasion of Abyssinia—what was later known as the Second Italo-Abyssinian War (October 1935 to May 1936). When he got his own scoop on the invasion he telegraphed the story back in Latin for secrecy, but they discarded it. Waugh wrote up his travels more factually in Waugh in Abyssinia (1936), which complements Scoop.
Scoop is a 2006 American-British romantic comedy/murder mystery written and directed by Woody Allen and starring Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johansson, Ian McShane and Allen himself. The film was released in the United States by Focus Features on July 28, 2006.
Following the memorial service for investigative reporter Joe Strombel (McShane), Strombel's spirit finds himself on the barge of death with several others, including a young woman who believes she was poisoned by her employer, Peter Lyman (Jackman). The woman tells Strombel she thinks Lyman, a handsome British aristocrat with political ambitions, may be the Tarot Card Killer, a notorious serial killer of prostitutes, and that he killed her when she stumbled onto his secret. The Tarot Card Killer left a card on each murder victim's body.
Sondra Pransky (Johansson) is a beautiful but awkward American journalism student on vacation in London. Pransky attends a performance given by magician Sid Waterman (Allen), aka "The Great Splendini", and agrees to participate on the stage. While in a booth known as The Dematerializer, Pransky encounters Strombel's ghost. The ghost has escaped the Grim Reaper himself to impart his suspicions of Lyman to a journalist who can investigate the story. Sondra decides to infiltrate Lyman's privileged world and find out if he truly is the dreaded criminal, enlisting Sid in the process and taking advantage of his powers of deception.
Bitch is an independent, quarterly magazine published in Portland, Oregon. Its tagline is "a feminist response to pop culture".Bitch is published by the multimedia non-profit organization Bitch Media. The magazine includes analysis of current political events, social and cultural trends, television shows, movies, books, music, advertising, and artwork from a feminist perspective. It has about 80,000 readers.
The first issue of Bitch was a ten-page feature. It was published in January 1996 in Oakland, California. The founding editors, Lisa Jervis and Andi Zeisler, along with founding art director Benjamin Shaykin, wanted to create a public forum in which to air thoughts and theories on women, gender, and feminist issues, interpreted through the lens of the media and popular culture. The first issue of Bitch was a zine, and a mere 300 copies were distributed from the trunk of a station wagon.
In 2001, a loan from San Francisco's Independent Press Association allowed Jervis and Zeisler to quit their day jobs and work on Bitch full-time and the magazine officially became a non-profit.
"Bitch", also known by its censored title, "Nothing In Between", is a Grammy nominated song co-written with Shelly Peiken and recorded by American artist Meredith Brooks. It was released in May 1997 as the lead single from her debut album Blurring the Edges. "Bitch" contains an un-credited drum sample of "Impeach The President" by The Honey Drippers, written by Roy Charles Hammond.
The song steadily rose on the Billboard charts, eventually peaking at number two for four weeks, only behind "I'll Be Missing You" by Puff Daddy and Faith Evans featuring 112. It debuted and peaked at number six on the UK Singles Chart on 27 July 1997 and stayed in the top ten for four weeks. The song was also a big hit in Oceania, where it reached number two in Australia and four in New Zealand. It ranked at number 79 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the '90s.
"Bitch" was also used in the 2000 Nancy Meyers film What Women Want, starring Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt. The scene is arguably the most memorable part of the film, as Mel Gibson is seen dressing in womans' tights and wearing make-up singing to the chorus of the song. From this point in the film the character is able to "hear" what woman want.
"Bitch" is the second single from Sevendust's self-titled debut album. The song peaked at #30 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock charts. "Bitch" was included on the Best of (Chapter One 1997-2004) album. The song also featured in 2000 action film Mrs. Death 2: Hells Fury.

Come follow me and take my hand now
… body in, in a state of mind
But beat is taking over my …
And this is my favorite part, part, part
I need it here, and hear it louder now
Tell the dj turn it up
This can be addictive I know, I don’t want it to stop, stop
Cause I’m not ready to go, go
Now let this beat drop
Tonight it’s you and me, … disagree
This ain’t all in my mind…
Breathing slowly, need you to pull me closely
We’ll party till morning time
I need you to push me up higher
Push me up higher, turn me up louder
Turn me up, turn me up
Push me up higher
Push me up higher, turn me up louder
Turn me up, turn me up

I got a smile on my face now, cause the dj’s playing what I wanna hear now
… he better not stop, oh
Baby won’t you come along, and take my hand
Spin me around, take me to the ground, ground, oh ground
And tell me how the sounds, sounds, sounds, oh
Tonight it’s you and me, … disagree
This ain’t all in my mind…
Breathing slowly, need you to pull me closely
We’ll party till morning time
I need you to push me up higher
Push me up higher, turn me up louder
Turn me up, turn me up
Push me up higher
Push me up higher, turn me up louder
Turn me up, turn me up
Can you feel the beat, it’s making me loosing control
Going out my mind babe, you know
I don’t wanna leave the dance floor, whoa, oh
Tonight it’s you and me, … disagree
This ain’t all in my mind…
Breathing slowly, need you to pull me closely
We’ll party till morning time
I need you to push me up higher
Push me up higher, turn me up louder
Turn me up, turn me up
Push me up higher
Push me up higher, turn me up louder
