This lawsuit keeps getting uglier. To recap, Desperate Housewives' Nicollette Sheridan is suing show creator Marc Cherry for wrongful termination, breach of contract, and battery after her character was killed off the show. Earlier this week, Cherry was disputing the claims of wrongful termination because "her contract only had a one year deal and the option to [...]

So horrible and sad. Yesterday, we were very upset to hear that concertgoers were both injured and killed during a Belgian music festival due to a disastrous thunderstorm. Now, the upsetting numbers are in, and we're hearing that 140 people were injured, 10 people were seriously injured, and 5 people lost their lives. Here's what the organizer of [...]

If you are apprehensive about producing paintings, then you should learn how to love art supplies. Achieving appreciation of art materials is possible when you take the time to observe art that is already around you because this will help you understand your very own artistic interests and inclinations. It is easy to overlook art that surrounds us but to truly develop an interest in the subject; you must get into the habit of using your free time to study paintings that you may have hanging up at home or around the work place.
What's the matter, Mark? You don't like irony of being the most popular person on Facebook's competition?

Guess he felt that he was getting TOO popular, because he decided to hide his friend list. Come on, Mark, show us that friend list again! Facebook [...]
Wow. We've never really seen anything like this - especially featuring this kind of subject matter!
Check out the new music video for the Cults' single Go Outside, off of the band's debut, self titled album, which features actual video footage taken from the famous religious cult led by Jim Jones, Peoples Temple, before the Jonestown Massacre.
According to a statement from director Isaiah Seret:
To tell the story of Cults' hauntingly beautiful track, "Go Outside", I was inspired to bring the band inside the world of Jim Jones' famous religious cult, Peoples Temple, and the eventual tragedy in Jonestown. Fortunately, when exploring the feasibility of this video I became acquainted with Fielding M. McGehee III, an expert on Peoples Temple history and the primary researcher for the Jonestown Archive. It is thanks to him and his encouragement that I was able to take on this project and through his support gained access to over two and half hours of home videos showing Peoples Temple in Jonestown. For this music video we didn't want to put a spin on the footage or the peoples lives—instead we wanted to re-tell and humanize their story. In order to achieve this we used a combination of stock footage, visual effects and other tricks to embed the band into the historical footage. This was achieved through my collaboration with my visual effects supervisor Bill Gillman and my cinematographer Matthew Lloyd. Lastly, I am moved to say when we completed the video we were able to preview it for some of the survivors of the Jonestown Massacre, who expressed their appreciation of our focus on the lives of the People's Temple members as opposed to exploiting the graphic images of the final tragedy.
In History and Memory,
Isaiah
Wow. Pretty powerful stuff.
And it fits PERFECTLY with the tone of the song - haunting, simple, and deeply sad, especially knowing what happened to many of those poor people.
We can't wait to see what else these guys do! We LOVE them!
Should she stay or should she go? Barbra Streisand's got a new album coming out this August…and it could be her last one with Columbia, if the label isn't able to work out a deal with her. Right now, it's looking like it will cost Columbia around $20 million to sign Barbra on for a deal, which [...]
We're sure fans were elated when they found out that All My Children would be resurrected onto the web after it ends this September.
They're going to have another reason to jump for joy because Pine Valley's HBIC Susan Lucci is rumored to have agreed to move on with the show.
Most of the soap's other tops stars have yet to enter negotiations to return to the show, but if Mz. Lucci returns, they'll most likely be willing to say yes.
As for some more deets on AMC 2.0, the production company responsible for taking over AMC when it hits the web are also bringing current head writer Lorraine Broderick and executive producer Julie Carruthers on board. And even though producers plan to wrap most of the story lines up when the show ends on ABC in September, be sure to expect some cliffhangers that will be addressed in the web series.
BUT, the most shocking buzz that's swirling so far is that SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR is rumored to have signed on for a farewell appearance for the show's finale on ABC. Even though Kendall is now played by Alicia Minshew, it will be really interesting to see how writers and producers will tie this one in.
Hey, it's a soap opera! We're sure they'll find a HIGHlariously creative way of bringing her back to the show.
When it involves music systems, the speakers are the most vital aspect. Lacking correct speakers, ones which function efficiently with the overall system, you might as well not bother to switch the thing on. Good speakers generate great sound quality, and in turn, give you a music experience dissimilar to nearly anything else in the environment.

The season premiers of Warehouse 13, Eureka, and Haven kick off this week and in celebration we are giving away Warehouse 13 seasons 1 and 2, Eureka season 1, 2, and 3, 3.5, and 4, and a WH13, Eureka and Haven T-shirt! It is an INCREDIBLE giveaway!!!

Has Myka Bering (Joanne Kelly) left the Warehouse team for good? Have we seen the last of villainous H.G. Wells (Jaime Murray)? And how will the new character Steve Jinks, (played by Aaron Ashmore, Jimmy Olsen on Smallville), a young ATF agent who can detect when someone’s lying — recruited by Mrs. Frederic (CCH Pounder) to be Pete Lattimer’s (Eddie McClintock) new partner — impact the chemistry of the Warehouse?

Some of these paparazzi just go waaaay too far. Seriously! It's out of control! Two photogs were handcuffed by police after being caught chasing after Michael Jackson's daughter, Paris. The paparazzi were allegedly running through red lights and driving recklessly in order to get a shot of her before cops caught the guys [...]
Star of the Bad Girls Club, Natalie Nunn was rushed to the ER this morning. All reasons are pointing to exhaustion, as the 25 year old had been running on very few hours of sleep for a very long time:
"I wasn’t kidding when I said I would sleep when I die. I have literally been running on three hours of sleep every day for the past two years. It caught up to me. I'll rest for a little while and get right back out there. I'm going to get rest. No one said it was easy being America's favorite bad girl.”
Gurl, don't joke about sleeping when you die! You were in serious trouble if you had to be rushed to the hospital! Working that hard is respectable, but you gotta learn to balance that with the relaxation. Nobody wants to work to death.
We're totally glad to hear you're okay, though! Make sure you keep on the promise of getting some rest before you go back at it. We don't want to have to write another "rushed to the hospital" stories about you!
Tween lovebirds Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber stepped out for a date night in downtown LA last night to sing a bit of karaoke together before sharing a sweet smooch for all to see. As you can imagine, cameras where there to capture the moment … which you can check out (if you dare) below. [...]
Last night, one day before my actual birthday today, David organized a fun get together drinks thing at Saint Felix in Hollywood, CA with a few of my very close, beloved LA friends. As much as I’m not really all that excited about turning another year older (ugh), being able to hang out with all of my friends all in one place at the same time is deffo worth celebrating my birthday. Because we went crazy with the Polaroid camera, I totally failed to snap any photos with a digitial camera … or even my iPhone … but I can assure you, a great time was had by all :)
Eileen managed to get a photo of some of the photos we took so at least that is something. For one night, I totally forgot to play with Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Turntable … everything … and just spent time hanging out with my friends — in real life! I am, truly, the luckiest man alive. I have the best friends EVER. My Detroit friends, my LA friends, my NYC friends, my international friends — and all of YOU guys — make me feel like the luckiest guy. Thank you all so much for the kind messages (which started yesterday for me here last night when July 12 arrived in Australia). I love you all :D
Today, I’m making it a shorter work day because David, some friends and I are going to Disneyland! Despite my advancing age, I refuse to grow up … so I’ll be celebrating my birthday with Mickey Mouse and the gang. I hope YOUR July 12 is as amazing as mine will be.
Earlier today we saw a beautiful photo of the very pregs Victoria Beckham shared by David Beckham on his official Facebook profile. Now we get to see a fun photo of Becks shared by Vicki B. on her official Twitter profile. Apparently, Becks got a little surfing lesson from his eldest son Brooklyn Joseph and [...]
Playing jazz on nylon string guitar - an overview. Jazz has been played on many different types of guitars-from acoustic steel string (Eddie Lang, Django Reinhardt) to amplified steel string (Charlie Christian being one of the first) to solid body (John McLaughlin, for example). Charlie Byrd was an early proponent of using a classical nylon string guitar to play jazz, and McLaughlin, Earl Klugh and many others have since used that kind of guitar in at least some of their work.
Knowing how to be a DJ can get you lots of places. Money, loads of hot girls (or boys), new friends, travel but best of all, making people lose it on the dance floor! Who knows, if you make it big you may be making people dance at festivals and in concert halls one day. Anything's possible in your world.

She may not have won the American Idol title, but instead got a very nice consolation prize for Pia Toscano. A record deal with Interscope Records. So does it even matter anymore to win? Find out the deets behind the deal below. Pia Toscana fans can take pleasure in knowing that all is not lost with her early exit from last season’s American Idol. News of her signing on the dotted line with AI mentor Jimmy Iovine’s Interscope Records is all the buzz today. It has many wondering if she will follow suit and find some post American Idol success like many who were surprisingly booted off from the show early. For example… Jennifer Hudson, Chris Daughtry, Adam Lambert, etc etc. The shocking early exit of Toscano is still talked about today, who very early on was dubbed a frontrunner to win it all. It’s hard to believe she ended up in 9th place. I hate to admit it, but I was a little miffed that the judges already used their ‘save’ on Casey Abrams when they clearly and more than likely would have used it on Toscano. I know, I know… America voted. I can’t blame the judges. Just [...]
Holy shiz holy shiz holy shiz holy shiz! We have NO idea if this is legit or not, but if it is, we are FREAKING OUT! Okay, deep breaths…and phew! Madonna only just announced that she had returned to the studio to begin work on a brand new studio album, and apparently, some little sneak managed to overhear [...]
Oh man. We cannot even BEGIN to tell you how excited we are for this.
Check out the cover art for Tori Amos' upcoming 12th studio album, Night Of Hunters (above), which is set to be released in September of this year!
She looks STUNNING, no?
And an alleged tracklist has also surfaced, which includes the following:
1. "Shattering Sea"
2. "SnowBlind"
3. "Battle of Trees"
4. "Fearlessness"
5. "Cactus Practice"

7. "Job's Coffin"
8. "Nautical Twilight"
9. "Your Ghost"
10. "Edge of the Moon"
11. "The Chase"
12. "Night of Hunters"
13. "Seven Sisters"
14. "Carry"
Wow - it definitely sounds, at least from the titles, that she's got a VERY specific theme and aesthetic running throughout this entire project!
This is going to be epic. We just KNOW it!
Can't wait to hear it, gurl!
What do U think?? Are U looking forward to new Tori??

If you are like most songwriters I know, you are probably familiar with the frustrating feeling of being stuck in a rut. You know in yourself that it's vital to write something, anything daily; however, there are times when songwriting just seems impossible. Perhaps you don't have enough energy to do it, you could be missing out on the muse, you fail to internalize the essential tips for writing songs, or you are overly critical during your first few attempts. Whatever your reason is, there's still hope. It's still possible for you to get your everyday writing done in a productive way if you only incorporate some brand new exercises to your routine.
What a wonderful step in the right direction! Yesterday, California passed a bill which will "require California public schools to teach the historical accomplishments of gay men and lesbians."

Oh no! Another one!

Poor Taylor Swift is still under the weather with that nasty, throat attacking illness!
A rep for the country princess released a statement on her Facebook:
Just wanted to update you guys on Taylor's health. She has bronchitis and although she is getting better, she has been advised by her doctor that she is not well enough to perform this week. Her concert dates in Charlotte and Atlanta have been rescheduled and she plans to resume the Speak Now tour in Montreal. Charlotte will now be November 16. Atlanta will now be October 1 & 2. Thank you for your concern!
It sucks for the fans who bought those tickets, but we're sure they can swing their schedule around to adjust accordingly.
Creating a Menehune doll transfers me into a miniature life of my own. I start with a clear image of the doll I want to create: its gender, the clothes, accessories, and sometimes even its name and part of its story. The flow of possibilities and creative ideas is endless. Sewing the body, stuffing it, embroidering the face, every step of the way, the Menehune grows and takes on a life of its own...
It's official! After 17 years of marriage, George Lopez, and his wife, Ann Serrano, who filed for divorce back in November, are officially split!

Stay [...]
While his brother is going AWOL, actor Chris Hemsworth is ready to become the Shadow Runner! After impressing fans as Thor, the Aussie star is now ready to take the lead in a new movie. Get the scoop behind his latest movie role here, and where else Hemsworth will be popping up! Columbia Pictures just added some serious star power to boost the appeal of their top secret project Shadow Runner from Snow White and the Hunstman writer Hossein Amini! Per Variety, the script is based on an “original idea” with Chris Hemsworth now in the mix! Refreshing since everywhere you turn these days the movie world is filled with reboots, revamps, remakes and book adaptations! Not that I’m complaining about a few of those awesome re-imaginings I cant wait to see! Unfortunately Shadow Runner’s plot is being kept heavily guarded, Super 8 style, with only a description of an “action thriller” being revealed. They must have something good up their sleeves! Both Tripp Vinson and Beau Flynn are said to be producing the Hemsworth headliner with Hannah Minghella (Columbia Pictures President) also on board. But before the Thor star can begin filming this latest addition to his hefty resume, [...]
Alex McCord and newcomer Cindy Barshop are reportedly leaving the Real Housewives Of New York, and this will be their last season. Frankly, I cant say I am surprised. Cindy just never seemed to fit in, and really doesn’t mix well with this group of women. Alex, who used to be one of my favorites, has changed over the seasons and is now one of the most irritating women on the show. I am tired of looking at her mug and watching her and Simon’s creepy romantic scenes together. Gag. Pour in brain bleach. The report came out yesterday claiming that viewers have had a negative response to Alex and her fame whore husband, Simon van Kempen. Those two will do anything to climb the social ladder. And Cindy is just too boring to replace fan favorite, Bethenny. I watch the show regularly, and have to agree. I actually like Cindy, but she just inst right for the show. However, the New York Daily News spoke to Alex and she said it is all BS. She said, “If I had a dollar every time an ‘inside source’ i.e. a cast member, leaked a ‘story’ that I was out of RHONY, [...]
In terms of traditional instruments Martin is most definitely one company held in very high esteem. Therefore it's really no wonder many people lift an eyebrow when they first hear Martin offer DIY guitar kits. For a heavily respected brand in the guitar industry it comes as a surprise to many that they would consider letting the general population loose on an instrument that bears their name.

Bad business you've gotten yourself into, dude!
Rick Springfield was formally charged with two counts of DUI this morning stemming from his arrest in Malibu last May. Because they are just misdemeanor charges, Rick faces a maximum of 6 months in jail and a $1,000 fine. If they were felony charges, FORGET ABOUT IT!
Rick also got off doubly easy as the police department decided not to press charges for Rick's outlandish remarks to the arresting officers. As we recall, he muttered something about have them "f*cking killed." However, an L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. spokesperson explained officials did not take the threat seriously, saying:
"It is rare when a drunk doesn’t say something outlandish to police when they’re arrested."
Truth!
Well, you brought this on to yourself Rick. Hopefully, you've learned your lesson!
A definative guide to the term radio imaging, and some examples of companies or individuals follows: The term radio imaging relates to different items depending on the region but broadly speaking, any time you're listening to the radio you will listen to some kind of this at one time or yet another. Generally this is what exactly is played inbetween records within a broadcast setting or on the radio. The sounds normally like the station name and frequency are made up of the number of elements, namely, a voice above or voiceovers, some sonic, or put simply sound...

Here's the deal:
Like many of the shows currently on HBO, Showtime and Starz, Game of Thrones is based off a book series written by George R.R. Martin. In two weeks, Georgie's going to release the fifth novel of the six book series and its been a long time coming - six years, to be exact. Fans have been eagerly wanting to get their hands on this story and at the moment, there are more than a few embargoed copies of "A Dance With Dragons" floating around.
With such hype surround the book and series, the publishers are imploring those in possession of the book to hold off on releasing any spoilers until after the book is released. They've even gone as far as to published a public plea on their website, imploring the books secrets be kept as such and asking fans not to see out the spoilers that could be flying around. The website says:
"And so, Voyager is asking you – if you can bear it – to avoid your favourite GRRM-related sites (except for George’s official site, and the Voyager site of course, where we will be screening comments as always) to ensure that the latest installment of this epic story is not spoiled for you. You’ve got a remarkable journey ahead of you, and some stunning surprises, and nothing should come between you and that experience. The embargo is now being thoroughly enforced by all accounts and customers around the world to ensure that no more copies are sold early."
Ah! But there is the rub! Can they bear it??? They're already all wincing over the fact they have to wait like FOREVER for season two of the show. These next two weeks might end up being damn near deadly if they don't get their hands on the deets!
Think U might manage to stay off the forums for two more weeks? Or, do you need to know NOW???
