Rash - An Illustrated Novella
~From Kickstarter.com
ABOUT THIS PROJECT
Rash, Wyoming.
A quiet town, made up of simple, quiet folk. A town where children still play outside until dark. A town where everyone knows everyone else. A town that still believes in the innate goodness of people. A town that has the unfortunate fate of being only twenty miles from the Nebraska border town of Stark.
Rash, Wyoming.
A town that will bleed like no town has ever bled before.
But, in Rash is a man that knows the evils of Stark and knows why the violent horror that has left its streets...

Ryan Reynolds IS the New Highlander!
~From CraveOnline.com
The rumors appear to be true: Ryan Reynolds has been cast as Connor MacLeod in Juan Fresnadillo's Highlander remake, after what The Tracking Board is calling "roughly a month of negotiations." It's the same role that made Christopher Lambert a star back in 1986. Since Ryan Reynolds is already a star, we have to assume that this new Highlander will turn him into Christopher Lambert.
Juan Carlos Fresnadillo is directing the...

New TOTAL RECALL Trailer includes 3-breasted Woman!
~From io9.com
There's been one question fans have had about the new Total Recall movie since it was greenlit. Not, "Will this film make me question the nature of reality and whether people are the sum of their memories?" But rather, "Will there still be a sex worker with three breasts?" (As we've covered in the past, this is an essential element of many great science fiction sagas.)
Now, you need wonder no longer. The latest trailer for Total Recall (below) includes a sassy lady who promises Colin Farrell, "You're going to wish you had three...

Stephen King's 'Eyes of the Dragon' in development at Syfy
One of my ALL TIME favorite King books is being made into a SyFy movie. Considering that many of King's books have been made into shall we say... subpar movie adaptations, and the fact that this will be a SyFy project, to say I'm a little bit worried would be an understatment!
~From EW.com
Stephen King’s fantasy novel Eyes of the Dragon could at last become a movie or miniseries.
The 1987 bestseller is being developed by Syfy as a longform...

Nadia G's Accent
~From www.bitchinlifestyle.tv
Where does Nadia G's accent come from? Some of you may be kept awake at night with this burning question. You may feel angry, confused and alone... If this is the case, you need help my friend. But if you're just wondering about the accent, here's the deal:
Nadia G(iosia)'s parents immigrated from Italy to Montreal, Quebec in the 1950's. Her father came from Guglionesi, Campobasso, where they speak a dialect of 'Mulise'....
Nadia G. Dishes On Her Hunger for Life
I love to watch the Food Network & the Cooking Channel. I'm always on the look out for new recipes and ideas. I've recently become obsessed with a new (to me) cooking personality, Nadia Giosia and her show, Nadia G's Bitchin' Kitchen.
A Canadian-born Italian who speaks English, Italian and French, Nadia's bad-girl image, sense of humor, quick wit and "Casalinga-style cuisine" have made her the "Julia Child of the Net generation".
After the jump, she talks about receiving Logo's NewNow Next Award for "Most Addictive Reality Star"...

Unprecedented Maya Mural Found, Contradicts 2012 "Doomsday" Myth
In the last known largely unexcavated Maya megacity, archaeologists have uncovered the only known mural adorning an ancient Maya house, a new study says—and it's not just any mural.
In addition to a still vibrant scene of a king and his retinue, the walls are rife with calculations that helped ancient scribes track vast amounts of time. Contrary to the idea the Maya predicted the end of the world in 2012, the markings suggest dates thousands...

Turning the Tables
So, after the American vs British showdown, I decided to throw out an even bigger challenge. I came up with the brilliant idea that we should try to pronounce certain words the way we think the other would. In other words, Rachel had to try to say the words with an American accent and I had to try to say them with a British accent. This actually ended up biting me in the ass as my challenges to Rachel weren't quite as difficult as the ones she gave me!!
Listen for yourself.

American English vs British English
Rachel and I were having a bit of fun the other day making fun of each other's accents - well... her accent. I don't have one! ;-P
Anyway... we decided to give each other lessons on the proper way to say certain words. This is how it went down.

Video of the Day: A Capella Cover of Scary Monsters & Nice Sprites by Skrillex
As many of you know, my latest musical obsession is Dubstep. Imagine my surprise when I realized that many talented people are recording A Capella versions, a la Mike Thompkins, of songs from this new, wildly popular music genre. Like me (if you've ever heard Dubstep before), you probably thought it impossible to be able to make sounds like that using only your voice! Well, not only can Aaron do it, he sounds amazing! If you're not familiar with the song, you can play Aaron's cover and the original song side by side here. You won't believe...

What the.....?!
Inside a former mental asylum, we sit surrounded by penises. Some are pronged or hooked, others sport dreadlocks. Some are kept for safety under glass.
Dr Freud could not have conjured a more disturbing fantasy. Yet all these male members are real. These are insect penises - magnified, modeled, photographed or rendered in glass and resin.

Somebody That I Used To Know
Before today, I had never heard the song Somebody That I Used to Know, or of the artist that sings it for that matter. But then late this afternoon, Rachel posted a cover version by Pentatonix on her blog. (Ironically, I know and love Pentatonix. They won last season's The Sing-Off reality TV competition.) I watched the Pentatonix video and immediately fell in love with the song.
A short while after that, I was watching tonight's episode of Glee and guess what song I heard? You betcha!! Somebody That I Used to Know!!!
So now I had heard two very...

Nike unveils new NFL uniforms
The NFL and Nike unveiled the next generation of uniforms for all 32 teams at a glitzy launch event at Brooklyn Navy Yard. See slideshow here.
The Nike Elite 51 unis are more evolutionary than revolutionary, focusing on lighter fabrics, a more contoured fit and four-way stretch materials rather than big changes in the visual, graphic look. Plus, the NFL's conservative team owners had final say under guidelines set by the league.

Adele Is 'Done with Being a Bitter Witch'
Adele swept Sunday's Grammy Awards with six gramophones, but her big win isn't inspiring her to rush back into the studio.
"I am f–––––– off for four or five years," she tells Vogue in its March issue.
"If I am constantly working, my relationships fail. So at least now I can have enough time to write a happy record and be in love and be happy ... I won't come out with new music until it's better than 21."

"There's a realism to the intention of Smash that's inspiring and delightful. The urgent possibilities, the sounds, the air of New York City leaks in at the seams so vividly it feels like you're traveling. Rather than skirting the hard economic realities and personal tiffs that can gather like storm clouds backstage, Smash invites us to revel in them as the greatest of dramas. Smash looks down from the lofty height of spectacle and asks us to...

Today I came thisclose to hitting all of my daily nutritional goals. I actually had lots of room to breathe with my calories and carbs. I hit the top end of my fat limit so I'll try to work on that a bit, but the biggest thing I'm having trouble with is getting enough protein! I'll have to find something to give me that little extra bit I need without putting me over the edge with everything else. Any suggestion...

Everyone's Mixtape
Once upon a time, crafting the perfect playlist was a labor of love — hours spent hunched over a boombox in pursuit of one perfectly proportioned cassette tape's worth of music.
Everyone’s Mixtape takes us back to those glory days. Virtual mixes are restricted to 60, 90, or 120 minutes (fantastically old school), though you can add any song from YouTube, SoundCloud and Vimeo with a simple drag and drop (VERY new school). Just be sure to create...

Funny TV Commercials
My very good friend, Scott Pond, brought up a funny commercial (which you'll see below) today while we were chatting on Twitter. Now, I have a DVR and normally, I record everything and fast-forward through the commercials. However, there are a select few that I'll not only watch, but I've "Favorited" the vids on YouTube. Our conversation led me to pulling up those videos and sharing them with Scott. After watching them all again and laughing my [bleep] off, I've decided to share them with you.
So, for your view pleasure,...
