SCRIPT
Angelina Jolie was born in Los Angeles, on the 4th June 1975. Growing up there, she was no stranger to
the film industry, being the daughter of two established actors, Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand. In
the mid-1990s, Angelina appeared in various music videos and small films, where she got good reviews.
However, her career began to improve after her performance as in the 1997 biopic George Wallace, for
which she won her first Golden Globe Award. She had her major break in 1999 in The Bone Collector.
In the same year she won the triple crown - the Golden Globe, the SAG Award and the Academy Award
for best leading actress in a supporting role - with her performance in Girl, Interrupted.
During the filming of one episode of the saga of Lara Croft, she had a moving experience in Cambodia,
subsequently adopting the first of her three adopted children. She then became an international diplomat
and now she spends most of her time in humanitarian efforts financed by her acting.
Since 2005 she has been going steady with Brad Pitt, father of her biological children. Their first
daughter was born in 2006, and in July 2008 they had twins, a boy and a girl. Their story became one of
the most reported celebrity relationships worldwide.
Now, here are some things you may or may not know about this most famous actress:
 She is Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).

 She has been married twice, both times to actors.
 When she first married she wore black leather pants and a white shirt. On the white shirt she painted her
husband's name in her own blood!

 The name 'Brangelina', for her latest love story, comes from the combination of the names Brad and

collection is usually covered with makeup.
 She has a tattoo of the coordinates representing the locations where her children were born on her left
arm.
 Dumbo the flying elephant is her favourite Disney character.
 "Jolie" means "pretty" in French.
 During her childhood, she dreamt of becoming a funeral director.
 Her exotic good looks may derive from her mixed ancestry, which is Czech, French-Canadian, Iroquois
and English.

SCRIPT
People surfing the web using Microsoft’s Internet Explorer need to be extra careful. A hole has been
found in the browser’s security systems. The anti-virus software maker Trend Micro Inc. said the
problem leaves people’s computers open to hackers. Trend Micro spokesman Paul Ferguson warned the
hole could let in criminals who want to hijack computers. He said security holes like this are “a
goldmine for criminals because users have few ways to fight off attacks”. Explorer’s flaw tricks users
into visiting websites that then steals passwords and other personal and confidential information. The

hackers then sell this for big money on the black market. It is a sizeable problem because most of the
world’s computers use Internet Explorer. Microsoft says it is investigating the flaw. Its website states
that it is considering creating an emergency software patch to fix the hole. The company is advising
users to try a complicated series of measures it calls “workarounds”. Microsoft said: “We are actively
investigating the vulnerability that these attacks attempt to exploit. We will continue to monitor the
threat.” The software giant assured people that it would “take the appropriate action to protect our
customers”. A Microsoft anti-virus blog said 0.2% of computer users may be affected. Its advice was to
“always exercise caution when browsing and try to go to sites that you trust”. Other experts advise
switching to alternative browsers such as Firefox, Google Chrome or Opera.
