Halloween: The Anthology Series
Halloween...
The Anthology Movie Series...
that could have been.
John Carpenter's original concept was to have a different story for each of the Halloween movies.
His first Halloween movie was about a metal patient named Michael Myers who had escaped. After the success of the first Halloween film Carpenter wanted to continue with other stories that all had the Halloween theme.
John Carpenter didn't want to do yet another Michael film. He never wanted to do a second one because he felt the story had already been told, but with enough studio pressure, he gave in. But sure enough he decided to kill off Michael Myers in the second film, which he does. With Myers out of the way Carpenter could start his Halloween anthology films with Halloween III :Season of the Witch.
After Halloween III opened up to disappointed fans who were looking forward to the return of Michael Myers, the studio forced Carpenter to bring Myers back, and so John Carpenter quit.
Today Fans of the Halloween franchise debate on whether or not Halloween III should be considered in the series.

The X-Files influence on television today
HOW THE X-FILES INFLUENCED TELEVISION FOREVER.
Soon after the success of The X-Files we began to see an alarming rate of television shows with the word "files" in them.
The Justice Files
Cold case files
The Dresden Files
Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files
The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo.
You can't watch shows like Fringe, Bones, Supernatural, and even Roswell without thinking of The X-Files.
The X-Files was the first television show to have it's entire season on DVD. As a sort of experiment to see if it would sell. Which eventually open the gates for every series on televison to be available on DVD.
The Series started on Sept. 10, 1993, declaring �The truth is out there.� Entertainment Weekly replied, �We know — this show's a goner.�

Pat Richardson: No Mac N Cheese for Thanksgiving.
Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was asked about her favorite thing to eat at Thanksgiving in a recent interview with Kristi Watts of “The 700 Club.”
"It's mac and cheese," Rice answered.
"Sister, that is my dish, that is the one thing I can rock!" Watts said in agreement.
Though Rice’s answer wasn’t all that interesting, Pat Robertson, co-host of “The 700 Club,” thought it was downright confusing.
"What is this mac and cheese? Is that a black thing?" Robertson asked Watts on Wednesday’s show.
"It is a black thing, Pat. Listen, and you guys, other people, the world needs to get on board with macaroni and cheese," Watts said. "Seriously, I just … OK, Christmas and Thanksgiving, we have to have macaroni and cheese and it trips me out that you don't."
The pair chuckled as Robertson admitted, "I really don't, I don't, and I have never.”

WTF??
WHAT IN GOD'S NAME IS MAC N CHEESE? IS IT A BLACK THING?
PAT RICHARDSON DOESN'T HAVE MAC N CHEESE ON THANKSGIVING. HE THINKS IT'S A "BLACK THING." FUNNY SHIT.
Condoleeza Rice knows what's up. I can seriously throw down some good and health damaging Mac n Cheese.
Pat Richardson doesn't know what the hell he is missing...It is heavenly!

Alpine Coaster in Austria
Winter is almost upon us. The skiers in the audience are probably excited at the prospect of snow, chilly winter mornings and speeding down a mountain face. But who needs snow? Hop on a flight to beautiful Mieders, Austria and you can get all the thrills of bombing down the hill without the chill. But you better have the stomach for roller coasters, because this ride looks intense!
Yikes! It's called an alpine coaster, and it's basically a sled attached to a rail. As the
YouTube description explains: You reach the summit via a cablecar and then sit on a small car with a brake lever and off you go. Having ridden it once using a little braking, I decided to try it a second time without using the brakes. This is SCARY! Enjoy the ride! That looks SCARY even with brakes.

Lowrider Bicycle - Li'l Rascal
Some of the culture’s most enduring Lowriders start at an early age, and so it goes with protégé’ Adrian “Lil Rascal” Hernandez, a five-year-old from Sacramento County. “Lowriding has always been a part of Adrian’s life,” explains his father, Eric. An owner of a few cars himself, Eric has been a regular attendee of local shows, bringing his Lowrider creations to the masses. He included his son in these experiences, and young Adrian took to it like a fish to water. Too young to drive, Adrian wanted to partake in the pastime that captivated his father, and he told him that he wanted to build a Lowrider bicycle. Delighted at his son’s interest, Eric approved of the idea, and the conversation quickly began to revolve around parts and paint schemes for the perfect Lowrider bike. After compiling some mental sketches and attending a few more shows, Adrian knew exactly what he wanted to accomplish in his first bike build.

OWS Sculpture: Dissing Jay-Z?
Daniel Edwards: Jay-Z as Scrooge
Last week, it was reported that Jay-z made OWS supporters real mad after refusing to share profits from Rocawear’s ‘Occupy All Streets’ tees with the actual Occupy Wall Street movement. An angry sculptor who was livid that Jay, who earned $63 million last year, would profit from people who were being arrested for what they believe to be one of the most important social justice movements of our generation, created a piece which he describes as a Scrooge Totem pole.
The sculpture, created by artist Daniel Edwards, features Jay-Z wearing chains with a big dollar sign on his chest at the base and animated characters that have played the money-hungry Scrooge character on television stacked on top of him. Above Jay is Mr. Burns from ‘The Simpsons,’ ‘Scrooge McDuck’ from Disney’s ‘Christmas Carol,’ and Richie Rich.
Daniel recently discussed why he chose to make the sculpture of Jay-z:
“I think Jay-Z has made himself a face of [the] Wall Street that Occupiers are protesting against. Maybe Jay-Z is strivingto be in the one percent? Which is why I chose the composition of a totem pole because I thought it would resemble the number one. Rap stars who turn ‘Scrooge’ have to suffer some damage to their street credibility.”
Russell Simmons recently spoke out defending his friend’s choice to sell ‘Occupy All Streets’ tees, saying that the movement isn’t being against business or branding, it’s just against those businesses controlling our government.
“What’s wrong with selling goodness? There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s not the most preferred. In yogi scripture, at least, the highest form of giving is giving without expectation. Selfless. But a lot of people need incentive.
You should sell things you’re happy about. You should sell products that you’re inspired by, that promote lasting and stable well-being. Give the world something or sell the world something that you’re proud of. Jay-Z didn’t make a T-shirt [that said] “F— the Bums on the Street.” He wrote a T-shirt “Occupy All Streets” – I’m happy, it furthers the movement, it inspires the movement.
Listen, I’m going to get every corporation that wants to support us to get branding as part of the process. No one’s against business. We’re against business having too much control over our government.”

Noah's Ark Capsule via Japan
TheGreat Flood is a mythical and religious story of a great flood sent by god or gods to destroy civilization as an act of divine retribution. The story has been told throughout human history, though it is perhaps best known in modern times in both the Bible and Koran, in the account of Noah's Ark. Although civilization appears to have survived earth's complete destruction in these tales, when natural disasters really happen, a whole country like Japan can be devastated.
After witnessing the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami on March 3rd, 2011 that devastated Japan’s northern coast and left nearly 20,000 people dead or missing, what can one do to protect themselves and loved ones from a water based catastrophe? A Japanese company called COSMO has developed a miniature version of Noah’s ark- a floating capsule that looks like a huge tennis ball. The “Noah” shelter is made from enhanced fiberglass and could save users from disasters. They are getting orders now worldwide, their first capsule in the US will be shipped to NYC a week from now and will be auctioned at the"Design Saves Lives" charity event hosted by a non profit organization for Japan tsunami relief. This capsule will be displayed at the MAD museum in December, right before the auction event on 12/7/2011.

I was surprised...
Name: Anastazia
Before I became acquainted with BYB Woman intimate hair removal products, I was bothered with buds, sweat and itching in the private area. After shaving the skin was dry as sandpaper so I had to spend a lot of moisturizer to rectify the dried skin. When I got a sample of BYB Woman intimate hair removal, I thought it's probably like the other shaving foam, but was taken by surprise.
The skin was soft and a feeling of being "freshly shaven" made me smile in satisfaction. Problems with buds, sweat and itching disappeared, leaving me with a wonderful feeling after shaving. I can definitely recommend BYB. It is no good to hear it from me; you have to have the experience before you understand what I mean.
