MEL GIBSON IN PANAMA AND THE PRESENT |
Last week, Mel Gibson visited Panama (please, SEE photo). Apparently, a new business trip
"Telemetro" affirms that Gibson is very interested in tourist industry and hotels (five stars, of course). The website says that MG will be very soon the proud owner of a luxury hotel in Panama. This new evidence confirms the "Theory of Monopoly", the famous board game in which the ownership of buildings and hotels is a matter of the utmost importance if you want to win the game.
"La Estrella de Panama" elaborates on Gibsonīs visit. They add more detail. Gibson went shopping!!! He bought a hat (a panama) and a sophisticated coffee grinder. "I'll give it to my wife for Christmas," Mel said.

MEL GIBSON AND OSCAR ARIAS

Actor and director Mel Gibson met with Costa Rica's president on Monday to discuss making a financial donation to help the Central American nation's Indians.
"He wants to help the indigenous population here and wants to know how to channel the funds," President Oscar Arias told reporters outside his home, where he met with Gibson for about an hour.
Arias said Gibson, who starred in such Hollywood blockbusters as the "Lethal Weapon" series and directed last year's Mayan epic "Apocalypto", would return to Costa Rica in a month to arrange how much money he would donate and to which organization.
Gibson has avoided the press in prior trips to Costa Rica, but spent a few minutes answering questions from reporters.
Asked about Arias, the winner of the 1987 Nobel Peace Prize for his work on a peace deal that ended Central America's civil wars, Gibson said: "I'm a fan."
The actor acknowledged buying a house in Guanacaste on the country's Pacific coast, and jokingly asked reporters if they wanted the address.

11 JULY 2007.- GREEN RUBBER GLOBAL
MEL GIBSON, New Mexico

Actor Mel Gibson's latest role is for real: investor in a state-of-the-art rubber-recycling plant planned for New Mexico.
The company, called Green Rubber Global, and its president Rick Homans say they have invented the world's first commercially viable waste-free method for recycling tires. The firm announced today it will build its first recycling plant at Gallup and set up corporate headquarters in Albuquerque.
The Malaysia-based global company plans to invest $30 million in its first tire recycling plant in Gallup employing about 150 workers.
"I think Gallup can be very proud. New Mexico can be very proud of the fact that we're going to have the world's first green rubber factory here," said Green Rubber founder Vinod Sekhar. "And this will be the first of many. We're planning at least six in the United States."
The plant will use waste-free environmentally friendly technology to produce a rubber compound that can be used to make all kinds of products - including more tires. The U.S. corporate headquarters will be in Albuquerque.
"We don't want any more tires in New Mexico going to landfills. We don't want any more tires in New Mexico going to incinerators. We want to work with tire dealers. We want to work with landfills. We want to work with recyclers," said Rick Homans
Mel Gibson was in New Mexico just last year as his film company shot "Seraphim Falls."
"Hey, I'm just glad to be here and to be part of this and to watch it all happen," said Gibson. "I'm proud to be here in New Mexico. I mean, we had a great experience with the film when we shot here. This is such a great place to work."
Gibson called the project a big deal and a good deal.
"When I hear about stuff like this it really starts my engine," he said. "Here we have a bona-fide absolutely stupid simple way to impact the planet in a very big way.
The grand opening for the plant is scheduled for next summer.

13 JULY 2007.- DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!!!
GREENWICH AND A TUDOR MANSION
Source: NEW YORK POST
The streets of leafy Greenwich, Conn., could become a bit quieter now that Mel
Gibson has put his sprawling estate on the market.
But Gibson's still going to have to find someone willing and wealthy enough to pony up his asking price of $39.5 million for the 28-room Tudor-style mansion on more than 75 acres.
The famous actor and Oscar-winning director bought the property on Old Mill Road in 1994 for a reported $9.25 million. Included in the stone-and-timber main house are 15 bedrooms, 12 full bathrooms, six half-baths, a screening room, formal dining room, a great room with a 40-foot ceiling and a massive fireplace, a gourmet kitchen, and servants' quarters.
The landscaped grounds include a pool, pond, tennis court, two guest houses, English gardens with a maze, as well as several farm animals, including chickens and donkeys.
Mel's neighbor Diana Ross is also selling her Greenwich home a few miles away, also with a last asking price of $39.5 million. But we hear that price may soon be lowered.

16 JULY 2007.- ED LIMATO AND ICM
MEL GIBSON AND ED LIMATO

Ed Limato, who has spent more than 30 years at ICM during a career in which he has become one of Hollywood's top talent agents, is in the process of negotiating his exit from the agency.
ICM said Friday that Limato is no longer serving as its co-president, though it added that he remained at the company as a motion picture agent.
Limato's current status is in play, though, as the two sides battle over the terms of his separation in what could become an acrimonious dispute.
Although Limato has not made any decisions about his future, he has signaled his determination to remain in the agency business, and has said that he would like to take his list of high-profile clients with him to one of ICM's competitors.
Under the terms of his contract, ICM could insist on exercising a noncompete clause, retaining Limato's services as a consultant, which would keep his clients at the agency. That doesn't appear to be the key issue at the moment, however, with the agency expecting Limato to leave with a number of his clients.
Instead, the major issue has become current and future commissions, including projects currently in negotiations, and how they will be divided between Limato and the agency.
If a settlement can't be reached, the two sides would be forced to move on to an arbitration hearing by Aug. 1.
Limato, who was at his ICM office Friday, was not available for comment.
Limato began his career at ICM's mailroom in New York in 1966. In 1978, he left for WMA but returned in 1988 to ICM, where he has guided the careers of such clients as Mel Gibson, Denzel Washington, Richard Gere and Steve Martin, among others.
ICM attributed the change in Limato's status to a restructuring of its motion picture department, which is part of an overhaul of its larger business operations to ensure longtime growth.
"As part of this process, the agency is making fundamental changes throughout the business to support the next generation of leadership," ICM chairman and CEO Jeffrey Berg said. "Ed has been a highly regarded member of our firm for the past 19 years, and we appreciate his efforts."
The announcement -- which Limato learned about only after his assistant read a company e-mail -- came as a surprise to him, according to his loyalists, who insisted that the veteran agent has not been treated with the respect he was owed since ICM's acquisition last July of the Broder Webb Chervin Silbermann Agency.
