Entertainment Television Inc. announced 3/13/07. The camp will be host to five different specialty groups: Wellness Camp, Pageant Camp, Couples Camp, Survival Camp and Drama Camp.

Hockey Night in Canada is staying on CBC

As a Canadian I feel it is my duty to report on any big Hockey news. So here we go.
http://www.arar93.dsl.pipex.com/mds975/Images/canada2006/cbc008.jpg

CBC the public broadcaster and the NHL announced a six-year agreement Monday for national English-language broadcast and multimedia rights to NHL games in Canada.The new agreement, subject to approval by the NHL’s board of governors, begins when the current deal expires at the end of the 2007-2008 season.

NHL commissioner Gary Bettman says

The NHL is thrilled to continue our longstanding partnership with this great Canadian institution and build on a tradition that has become a staple for millions of Canadians from the time the first puck is dropped in October through the presentation of the Stanley Cup eight months later.” Hockey Night in Canada is currently in its 54th season
If it wasn't for Hockey night in Canada I wouldn't even watch CBC.

Do those Gilmore Girls Still have a Kick?



Kristin over at Eonline is reporting that the girlmore girls are looking uncertain for a 8th season. Kristin writes

According to sources, our beloved Rory Gilmore is the biggest deciding factor in a season eight, given that she's holding out on signing a new contract and Lauren Graham won't sign without her. Meanwhile, show runner David Rosenthal has been taking meetings around town looking for a new job, which isn't the best sign.However! The fans still love this show, and Gilmore Girls is still one of the strongest on the CW.
I would hate to see this show go.What eles would I watch on Tuesday nights. I have spent the last 6 years watching it.

What is your Homepage?



So I'm always looking for the perfect homepage. I used to use msn.com but then that was re-branded to live.com. live.com sucked. Then I switched over to Google.com, So far I've liked it. Now that they have themes I love it even more.

The guys at Life Hackers did a comparison chart

So what is your homepage? Tell me

FaceBook is Huge in Canada. you no ahh!



It's like facebook is everywhere these days. Even my hippy friends have them. youthography.com.did a article about the website here is a excerpt:
Facebook has EXPLODED in Canada in the last three months, and has become even more significant here than in the US. Facebook did not exist on the online media landscape in Canada six months ago: it was, until late September of last year, only open to members of recognized student networks (read: people with valid e-mail addresses from school that were members). Today, Facebook is the number five most visited Web site in Canada according to Alexa’s global Web metrics traffic counts (and really, Facebook is more like the number four Web brand here, as Alexa counts Google.com and Google.ca as two sites).

This puts Facebook as one of the most important Web sites in Canada just after Google, MSN and Yahoo!. That’s huge, but think of it this way: Facebook gets more traffic than massively popular destinations for Canadian youth, like YouTube, MySpace, wikipedia, EBay, Blogger, Amazon, CBC, and NHL.com. This isn’t to say it’s still the only online game in town…MSN is still the number two Web site in Canada and easily the most significant tool for messenging. Right now, Facebook is adding more than 10,000 new Canadian users a day! And of those users, 73% of them use the site every day. From January to now, Facebook has added more than 600,000 new users, bringing the Canadian audience to more than 1.5 million uniques.
Dude Fackbook is taking over the world. I still think Twitter is going to be the next facebook.

Lily Tomlin Goes Ape Shit on Director

Not to confuse anyone but this incident took place back in 2004 on the set of I ♥ Huckabees.The first video is footage of a scene in a car containing Tomlin, Dustin Hoffman and Isabelle Huppert in the front of the car with Mark Wahlberg and Naomi Watts in the back seat. Russell cannot be heard, but Tomlin is repeatedly shouting angrily at Russell's direction. At one point, Tomlin attempts to get out of the car; at another, she berates Watts and Hoffman. The other actors in the scene remain mostly silent throughout the video, except Hoffman, who suggests they carry on shooting the scene. The car scene was never used in the final film.

In the second video, a scene is being filmed in the Jaffe detective offices, Tomlin, Hoffman and Jason Schwartzman are present. Russell gives Tomlin direction until Tomlin criticizes Russell's directing style. The video is then cut to moments later when Russell rises from the floor and shoves props off of the desk Tomlin is acting behind. Russell shouts obscenities at Tomlin, storming off the set, only to come back a short while later. The argument between the two briefly continues until Russell exits the set again, knocking over a lamp on his way out.
I Heart Huckabees Lily Tomlin/Director Freak OutFull Screen

Both Videos are sort of Surreal. But this Director has had problems with cast membes in the past. He made George Cloony go ape shit too.

The Fratellis- Not the guys from the Goonies.


You might have heard The Fratelli's song Flathead this week. It's the Currrent song used in the new iPod commercials . I have been hearing good things about thing and wanted to share with everyone. Information from Wikipedia


The Fratellis played their first ever gig on March 4, 2005 in the O'Henry's bar in Glasgow, and have since made their breakthrough year in 2006. They were discovered by their manager Tony Fratelli in McChuills Bar, Glasgow soon after this. The Fratellis EP was released April 3, 2006, featuring the tracks "Creepin' Up The Backstairs", "Stacie Anne" and "The Gutterati?". Due to its limited availability, copies can now be found reaching more than £30 on eBay.

Different sources tell of different origins of the band's name. Some claim it derives from the 1985 movie The Goonies; however, the band denied this live on air on BBC Radio 2's Jonathan Ross Show on 9 September, 2006. Others tell of the band forming from a four-piece band who would play at weddings. However in an interview in The Sun newspaper, it would appear that the name is taken from bassist Barry, whose original surname is Fratelli, the other members of the band simply adopted that pseudonym. Ironically, the word "fratelli" in Italian means "brothers". According to Top of the Pops, the band met after placing ads in the same record shop. NME ran a two page feature on The Fratellis in the August 10, 2006 issue proclaiming them "the best new band in Britain"

So Heroes is becoming the most kick ass show these days. It's off for the next few weeks but here is a Preview. Each Monday I will try to give some information about the show, just to meet your fix.

Monday is all about 24 & Heroes

So My Favorite thing to do on Mondays is watch 24 and Heroes. I think both are the best shows on Television at the moment. Heroes is off until April 23 so for now all we get is 24.

Things got Intense last week. When the Russians were taken down and Former President Logan got stabbed and killed by his wife "Bat Shit" crazy Martha Logan. Another Nuke might go off and there seems to be another leak in CTU. There is one every year.they should get better HR

I for one can't wait to see what happens next. Here is a clip

300 Looked Good

Jenny and I went and saw this film last night at the AMC. We thought it was good. It was really good. The guys were surreal. They were crazy fit. The whole movie was shot in Canada which is another plus. I Think it would look sick in HD.


Check the film's website for more info

Want to become a Virgin Again?

Crazy Ass Richard Brandon is at it again. He wants you to escape your current cell phone service and switch over to Virgin Mobile. to symbolize this he escaping” from a suspended cage Canadians’ new freedom to illustrate how you can now switch carriers without changing numbers.

Nathan Rosenberg, chief marketing officer for Virgin Mobile Canada, says his company pushed for the change in regulations and wanted to take quick advantage of the new rule as soon as it came into effect.

We’ve worked very hard to make sure this day came and we wanted to make sure that every Canadian knew that it was coming,” says Rosenberg.

He adds that Virgin’s approach to the rule change stands in stark contrast to its competitors. “I think there’s been a deafening silence from other carriers about number portability, because if their service isn’t good enough people are going to want to leave.”

I like my Virgin Mobile Phone. The plan is simple and they don't hassle me. In my two years with Virgin I have not have had one problem yet. I recommend it to everyone. Plus Richard is a Crazy ass guy so that should make you want to switch alone.

did Summer Roberts move on?

Hayden Christensen, and Rachel Bilson seem to be cozy in these pics. I really liked her with Adam Brody and were sure they were going to get back together if the OC didn't get canceled. Hayden is Canadian so I'm cool with them dating

The best TV Fourm site is going Big time
















I've been posting on the
Television without pity site for years now. The site which not only offers the best forums on the net but snaky reviews on some of the hit shows of TV. Those reviews were the only thing keeping with "the O.C." in the end.

So whether you love reality TV and are hooked on American Idol or you love the drama of shows like the Gilmore Girls, TWoP is a great site for you. Besides recaps of episodes, they’ve included polls.

The Spare the snark, spoil the network site has recently been bought by NBC. Which means it's going to put TV.com out of business. TV.com always was the better site because of it's media but failed in the forum territory . Now with this new funding expect TWOP to go over some major changes. More videos, More reviews and backstage info from inside NBC.

I can't wait to see who is going to win this battle.

It's All About Twittering?


So anyone who knows me knows I love to chat. You also know I love to ask what are you doing and what happens when the two meet. Well you have Twitter. Twitter is an online service that lets you broadcast short messages to your friends or "followers." It also lets you specify which Twitter users you want to follow so you can read their messages in one place.

Really I don't know anyone on Twitter besides me in my circle of friends but it will catch on and you might as well be on board now.

As you can see on the right hand side I'm twittering right now. The guys at webware.com go into twitter more detail. Click here for details

Buffy lives! The much-anticipated 8th season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer debuts today -- in comic book form:

Buffy creator Joss Whedon promises that the new comic series will carry on the storyline as it was left off in season 7 when the show ended its television run a couple of years ago. While I'd much rather have a live-action version of the continuing tale (WITH all the original actors), I realize that that can't happen. This comic series sounds like a pretty good compromise to me. From what I understand, there will a lot of surprising developments introduced in the storyline ... and beloved characters will be brought back. I am very excited to find out how things have been going since ... well, Sunnydale imploded. God ... I love Buffy :)

Music That I like
A big reason behind this Blog is to showcase my tastes in Music. So you will find a verity of Styles and Genres on here.

Download of the Day: iTunes 7.1 (Windows/Mac)

iTunes%207.1.png

Windows and Macintosh only: Enjoy full-screen Cover Flow and more
with iTunes 7.1, the latest version of Apple's music manager/media
store.

The updates in this release are minor but worthwhile. Cover Flow,
which lets you browse your albums by flipping through their covers, now
includes a full-screen view, complete with playback controls. Apple has
also added some new sorting options and support for the upcoming Apple
TV gizmo.

The big letdown is that iTunes still doesn't offer folder monitoring, a true head-scratcher. But the new version is worth the download just for the new Cover Flow, which gives Windows users a taste of Front Row. iTunes 7.1 is free, of course. It's available for Windows and Mac.
