WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: 22 Jump Street tops the chart with 60 million, much stronger than the original, the second-highest R-rated comedy opening ever, and about where projected. How to Train Your Dragon 2 places with 50 million, lower than projections--but then, the original opened soft at 43 million and there won't be an animated competitior until Planes: Fire and Rescue on July 18.  Maleficent shows with 19 million; the 45 percent drop (likely due to the Dragon training) is a concern, but this is still likely to profit.  Edge of Tomorrow, despite being good, takes the fourth slot with 16.2 million, and will need Tom Cruise's overseas fanbase to have a shot at the 500 million it likely needs to profit.  The Fault in Our Stars, last weekend's champ, rounds out the Top Five with 15.7 million; the 67 percent drop tells you this was frontloaded with fans of the book and Shailene Woodley, but 81 million domestic so far against a 12 million budget is money in the bank.

SYRIA's army has been pounding major bases of the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria in coordination with the Baghdad government for the last 24 hours, an activist group says Sunday.

IRAQ: Militants from the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria boasted on Twitter that they had executed 1700 Iraqi government soldiers, posting gruesome photos to support their claim. A Shiite militia seized control of an Iraqi town Saturday, blunting the advance toward Baghdad of radical Sunni fighters in a sign that the widespread mobilization of paramilitary forces may be starting to have an impact. In Mosul, however, the removal of the Iraqi army by ISIS has been interpreted as a local victory; as a means of empowering Mosul residents against Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and the Shia dominated national government who they feel has kept their people “oppressed”. The American Embassy in Baghdad plans to evacuate a substantial number of its personnel this week.
