Legend of the Seeker Fans Launch Operation LOTS More
August 20th, 2010
Look out you television networks and channels: fans of the fantasy television show Legend of the Seeker have just launched a new campaign to bring back their show. Called Operation LOTS More, this new campaign will seek to create visibility and awareness of all the fan activities that are currently ongoing.
Launched in the popular Legend of the Seeker fan forum, Operation LOTS More will provide updates via a massive Internet blitz on fan initiatives, such as a new advertisement in the Hollywood Reporter. Fans raised $3,000.00 for the ad in about 1 week months after the show was officially cancelled.
So intense has the campaign to bring the show back been that SyFy Network’s Craig Engler has asked fans to stop bombarding him with Tweets on the show’s behalf. Word is that unless the production costs are changed, SyFy won’t be interested in picking up the show — which is an odd decision considering that the show only lost about 800,000 viewers when the Tribune Group announced it would no longer air the show. Weekly broadcasts in remaining markets still reach about 1.7 million users.
The SyFy viewing audience could thus potentially reach up to 3 million viewers, but SyFy’s own tests (a couple of “marathons”) have been launched with little to no fanfare or promotion.
It is this lack of promotion that plagues shows like Legend of the Seeker. Networks allocate only so much time to promoting each show and leave it to their production companies (or fans) to build audience share. Despite a strong track record with shows like Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Xena: Warrior Princess, producers Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert have failed to secure a new distributor for LOTS, as the show is called.
Hence, fan efforts will continue in the hope of finding a new home for the show next year, or of inspiring a theatrical release, or perhaps a Direct-to-DvD distribution. Fans of Stargate SG-1 were rewarded with 2 Direct-to-DvD movies after their show was cancelled.

Rihanna Receives Lapdance from a Midget for Her Birthday
February 23rd, 2010
Rihanna received a dominatrix-inspired lap dance from porn star ‘Bridget the Midget’ on her 22nd birthday. The ‘Disturbia’ hitmaker’s new partner Matt Kemp had reputedly arranged the smack in Phoenix, Ariz, reports E! Stories . The Rude Boy singer, Rihanna was allegedly “shocked” by the ballplayer’’s surprise, as he had at first planned a particularly “private and intimate” gathering for her, reports TMZ. “Matt truly needed to do something nice for Rihanna this year since she did not have much of a 21st birthday last year,” the Manhattan news quoted a source as asserting. Kemp also allegedly stunned the vocalist with a custom diamond necklace. The insider claimed : “It was so sweet and she was truly stunned. She looked just beautiful.” “Thanks honey, it’s simply what I have always wanted…” Well, it sure beats an ironing board or some useless scent. But we aren’t sure what gave Rihanna’s new hubby Matt Kemp the concept to present her with a frolicsome tiny person stripper for her 22nd birthday. “Bridget the Midget” performed a raunchy dance for Rhi at her birthday celebration in Arizona and according to other party guests, Rihanna positively adored the kooky present. “She believed that it was funny,” asserts a mate. So Rihanna claims she is single, regardless of the Cabo San Lucas holiday with Matt Kemp. And Kemp asserts he is not dating Rihanna, they are just good buddies. As he desires “no distractions.” luckily, good chums are not distracted at all by the likes of an intricate surprise birthday celebration and spending the weekend together, so that the shindig the Dodgers star threw Rihanna on Sat.
in Phoenix is totally in the lines. The surprise hit included about forty guests from each side of the aisle. Although, of course, there’s not especially an “aisle” either.
Matt “really needed to do something nice for Rihanna this year,” a source said to the Manhattan morning news, “since she did not have much of a 21st birthday last year.”.
Former so Solid Crew Member Is Now Working as Roadie for UK Popstar Chipmunk
February 22nd, 2010
It would appear that MC Harvey, ex-member of So Solid Crew and prior partner of Alesha Dixon, is now a roadie for UK rapper Chipmunk. The 30-year-old one- time rapper has been spotted shifting kit on all the dates of Chippie’s UK tour. BRIT-nominated chart-topper Alesha, 31, who was red-faced after Harvey ran off with fellow face Javine, twenty-eight, must be smiling into her cornflakes. Stepping from dirt into the typical world can be difficult.
Take Chipmunk. No-one in the favored press cares that he used to make dust music. The most recent single from Chipmunk Chip Diddy Chip has stormed the United Kingdom charts.
Yes, it becomes a little mention in the details at the beginning of interviews. Sure, you may find old YouTube clips of his prefame days when you Google him, but realistically it’s not the mud mixtape he made aged 17 that they’re talking about when they stick him on Radio one two years down the road. His hit record Oopsy Daisy? Well, that sure is a full other story. The assumption artists can only succeed with a commercial tune isn’t the type of promotion dirt wishes. So as a 19-year-old dust obsessed writer, I ask myself, all attempted joking aside : why isn’t the raw version of mud in our charts? As it’s gritty, it’s grimy, it’s fair and it’s hard-hitting, that’s the reason. Sally from Milton Keynes doesn’t want her alarm clock to go off at 6am to words about kicking the HDTV off the stand.
The History of Republican Film
January 29th, 2010
Unbeknownst to many, there are a considerable number list of republican actors. While their party choice is definitely unpopular in the eyes of many the United States registered voters, they are a force to be reckoned with. A majority elect not to make their political position a public matter despite starkly liberal stance of other actors. While that is certainly the case with some, those that do decide to state their political affiliation tend to be loud and proud.
One of the most popular is film star Dean Jones known for many, many, many powerful pieces. On a in vogue flick with Lee Oswald they went on the record, “I absolutely support the conservative political forces and won’t respected the liberal people.”
That considerably unbiased vision caused quite a millions letters to the many liberal news stations. This disturbance founded a original conversation amidst USA natives. The unprecedented variation in the middle of the split principles may detectable still. Anti-Americans and constitutionalists are purely unable of being friendly.
This is an age when Hollywood have embarked on a journey and are free to challenge individualss surmising and impel the citizenry to visualize soundly.
Regardless of the slight ethnic differentiation, Right Wing Celebrities are irrevocably being shown gratitude for their exceedingly distinctive and serious perspectives.

Astrology: How Even a Sceptic Can Be Changed
September 1st, 2009
My journal into astrology started the same place as many of the male designation do - a girlfriend. I was living in Russia of all places and, well, astrology is very big in that country. A young lady I was dating was eternally after me to tell her my birth date. The reason? She wanted to do get a chart reading. Why? Our general signs were not a good match, so a more detailed chart reading would tell her if we were truly doomed as a couple. I should’ve just know from the general signs, but that is another story!
I was a skeptic when I was first introduced to astrology. The position of the bodies in the sky certainly made sense from an astronomy point of view, but deriving characteristics and predictions out of them seemed a bit much. Then I actually looked into. Once I did, I was fairly shocked at how often things seemed to align.
Ultimately, I agreed to a chart reading. Sure enough, we were doomed as a couple. Much to my surprise, she took it to heart and ended our relationship within a day. I responded in the usual irrational male way and decided I would look into this nonsense if only to prove it wrong and perhaps win her back. That’s when things got a bit weird.
The more I read each of our charts, the more I realized they definitely would not make a good match. More baffling was my chart described me more or less to a “T”, even aspects of myself that I don’t reveal to many others. She eventually admitted that her chart predicted the same regarding some of her more private aspects. We tried to carry on, but ultimately it didn’t work out. There were many reasons, but it definitely made me wander more than a bit.
Since that time, I’ve read more than a few horoscopes. To be honest, I don’t find them all that accurate at least not specifically so. Individual chart readings, however, I’ve found to be uncomfortably accurate. I’ve talked numerous friends in to getting them and the results have almost always been accurate enough if you can go by the facial expressions of people. It is rather amazing.
