New England Patriots Stay Perfect For One More Week

Tom Brady gets upended

Of all the teams on the New England Patriots rather soft schedule, the only team more unlikely to beat the Patriots other than the Baltimore Ravens would be the Miami Dolphins. This years Patriots team is trying for a perfect season, the first since the 1972 Miami Dolphins. Oddly, this years Dolphin team may go without a win as they are currently one of the worst football programs in professional sports. We doubt they could be any of the top 25 college teams, either

With the 1972 Miami Dolphins still the only unbeaten NFL team in the modern era, former '72 Dolphins coach Don Shula was in the booth on Monday Night Football to watch the Baltimore Ravens hand the Patriots a ?? loss.

Just kidding. The Ravens threw away multiple chances to beat the Patriots and lost by a field goal. However, after tonight's game and last week's Eagles-Patriots game, it is apparent that the Patriots are vulnerable. They were tossed around by the Ravens "D" and didn't score their usual 40 points. They should have lost tonight but because of the impatience of the Ravens the Pats were able to squeak away a winner.

AVPR - Alien Vs Predator - Requiem

In this follow-up to the worldwide hit ALIEN VS. PREDATOR, the iconic monsters from two of the scariest film franchises ever, wage war in an American Midwestern town - with the residents caught in the middle.

The first AVP was acceptable but not our favorite in the Alien or Predator series. We have high hopes for the new AVPR flick and hope that the blood and guts that we saw earlier this summer in the unofficial trailer holds up in the final cut.

Led Zeppelin, Metallica for Bonnaroo 2008?

Led Zeppelin, arguably one of the best rock bands, is rumored to play the Bonnaroo 2008 Music Festival next summer. The usual crowd of fans that attend the yearly concert in Manchester, Tennessee, were swamped by fans of The Police last summer.

The Police milked their comeback tour to the tune of around $500/ticket. It didn't take long for people to figure out that you could get the entire pass to Bonnaroo for half that price and many people did just that. They only showed up for The Police and saved some money in the process.

Metallica is also rumored to hit the stages at Bonnaroo 2008. We have to admit that's one band we would pass on for the concert. With over 50 bands on the lineup each year, we're sure to find someone else to watch.

About Bonnaroo:

The Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival is a four-day, multi-stage camping festival held on a beautiful 700-acre farm in Manchester, Tennessee every June. Bonnaroo brings together some of the best performers in rock and roll, along with dozens of artists in complementary styles such as jazz, Americana, hip-hop, electronica, and just about any contemporary music you can think of.

In addition to dozens of epic performances, the festival's 100-acre entertainment village buzzes around the clock with attractions and activities including a classic arcade, on-site cinema, silent disco, comedy club, theater performers, a beer festival, and a music technology village. For its peaceful vibe, near-flawless logistics, and unrivaled entertainment options, Rolling Stone magazine named this revolutionary entertainment experience one of the 50 moments that changed the history of rock and roll.

Imus In The Mornings - Don Imus Back On Air With Black Sidekicks

Well, look who's back.

Seems like Don Imus couldn't stay away too long. He returns to the radio waves after being run out on a rail for making racist comments toward the Rutgers women's basketball team. Imus in the Morning makes a comeback after the host was fired by MSNBC and CBS Radio for the Rutgers comments.

This time Don Imus returns with 2 black sidekicks, Tony Powell and Karith Foster. We've never heard of them but we gathered their agents aren't that good. Radio stations in Knoxville won't be broadcasting his show which is just a shame. Guess we'll have to find some way to get through life without Imus.

Howard Stern sums up how we feel about Imus rather nicely:

"At this point, I don't think he's very relevant," Stern said. "People will tune out within a week. I defy you to listen. It's like a rodeo -- you know, see how long you can ride a bull? See how long you can keep listening to Imus."

Imus signed for five years with Citadel Radio, the parent of WABC, as well as with RFD-TV, which will simulcast his program.

2 Girls 1 Cup - Unofficial Film Review

If you are still hesitant to view the infamous 2 Girls, 1 Cup video that is taking the world by storm, we have the film review to help you gauge whether or not it is up to your critical tastes.

The critic submitted this film review to an Art class that was graded by an unassuming teacher. It's really hard to make a good grade on this essay if the teacher didn't view the original material. It's unfair.

We wonder what this student will follow up with: a nice review of 2 Girls, 1 Finger or the chop-tastic BME Pain Olympics.

Zoey Zane Update: Dental Records Confirm Body as Emily Sander; Israel Mireles Still At Large

The body of Adult Internet star Zoey Zane (A.K.A. Emily Sander) has been confirmed as the woman's body found by authorities near the side of a road in Kansas. Meanwhile, suspect Israel Mireles is still at large somewhere in Texas possibly heading toward the Mexican border with his pregnant 16-year old girlfriend, Victoria Martens.

A monetary reward is being offered for the capture of Israel Mireles in the death of Emily Sander. The website that once ran the Zoey Zane softcore porn site is now focused on finding Israel Mireles (see Zoey Zane Website Back Online - Help Catch Isreal Mireles) and is offering the reward. We hope they find him.

A forensic orthodontist has confirmed a body found along a highway as that of Emily Sander, a community college student who disappeared in Kansas last month.

The 18-year-old student's identity was confirmed by dental records shipped from Texas, where she had lived previously, said El Dorado Police Chief Tom Boren.

Emily Sander's body was released to her family Saturday and the results of the autopsy were sealed, The Wichita (Kan.) Eagle reported Sunday.

Her body was found Thursday along a highway about 50 miles east of El Dorado. Near her body, investigators found a bedspread reported missing from a hotel room rented by Israel Mireles, 24, who was seen leaving a bar with Sander outside El Dorado Nov. 23, the Eagle reported.

Mireles has been named a suspect in the death and police believe he may be trying to enter Mexico, possibly with his 16-year-old pregnant girlfriend, who was believed to be traveling with him, the Eagle reported. (source)

Steve Pokin Defends Not Naming Lori Drew As Megan Meier's MySpace Cyberbully

It would be difficult to foretell that Steve Pokin (photo left) would be sitting in a hot seat about his article on the Megan Meier MySpace suicide.

Steve Pokin ran the initial article that created a wave of anger across the nation when his story on how a middle-aged housewife harassed a 13-year old girl so much that the girl hanged herself. It was a small story based on a suicide a year earlier that ran in a small newspaper in Middle America.

In that article, Pokin did NOT name the cyberbully that pushed Megan Meier to her brink. He chose to leave out the name of the housewife which sparked bloggers to find the real culprit and flush her out.

He did know the name of the accused bully, now known to be Lori Drew, and chose not to name her on account of the 13-year old daughter the Drews have.

Pokin believed when he was writing the story he had 3 options:

Run the story with the name. Run the story without the name. Or simply not do the story.

We can understand the choice Pokin had to make. In fact, the way MySpace and other social networks run may be altered by Pokin's decision. By not publishing Lori Drews name in the story a reaction was created that has us here today having local governments studying and creating "cyberbully" laws where they did not exist before.

But, Pokin stands by his decision and we respect that he does. We don't agree with it on all levels, but at least he's up front about his beliefs and stands by them and is willing to talk about the situation.

In this day and age you can't be afraid of having your articles or posts picked up and spread across the world. And when that does you better have your facts right and story straight. Since Lori Drew "conspired" with others, including her 13-year old daughter, you have to take that into account. You just can't name juvenile suspects. That's a "no-no."

However, at the time of the article, there were no charges pending (remember this happened last year) against the Drews. So, can you really have "suspects" when no crime can be found to be committed?

The debates will continue for quite some time. Steve Pokin made a "safe" decision and that's his business. Lori Drew made a decision to do what she did and now she's being bullied 100x's worse than what she dished out. Local laws decided what Lori Drew did was not a crime and now they must face up to that.

Sadly, the one person hurt the most, Megan Meier, doesn't have a say and there's just something bone-chilling wrong about that fact.

NBC officially removed from the iTunes Store

December has arrived and NBC's contract with iTunes has expired. That means Apple and iTunes no longer carry NBC products which include Bravo, mun2, NBC, NBC News, CNBC, NBC Sports, Sci Fi, Sleuth, Telemundo or USA Network.

NBC also had all their content pulled from YouTube awhile back and is trying to push NBC Direct and Hulu onto the public as their source of NBC related shows. NBC Direct is their download version, kinda. (see: NBC Direct - Could It Suck More?)

It's like the more intrusive cousin of AOL. You have to download a bunch of spywa...um..software and you can only view a few weeks back worth of episodes. Oh yeah, it only works on PC and IE with no sharing or transfer to device.

For a reference, the average users (on all our sites and a few others we know the webmasters of) work out to be about 30% Firefox users and about 10% Mac/Linux/etc.. users. Not the best of odds when your rolling out software.

Hulu.com is still in beta and by the reviews should be there awhile. This site has some potential but it depends on what they actually roll out with the finished product. Other companies support Hulu including Fox/News Corp. and others. (you can sample Hulu here.) Hulu still has commercials, which really sucks. But it does good in a pinch if you want to catch up on an episode.

Amazon to Give Away 1 Billion Free MP3s in Superbowl Promotion

Amazon and Pepsi are reported to team up to give away 1 billion MP3s for free in 2008, starting with a Superbowl kick off in February.

Pepsi and iTunes teamed up a few years back for a similar promotion which we really dug. We're never gonna turn down free music downloads!

That was back in the college years at UT and it was not unusual to slam down a ton of Mountain Dews during the semester. Lucky for us most people didn't check their caps and we found half of our winning lids just laying around on tables and in lecture halls.

"Amazon launched its DRM free MP3 music download service in September. We said it rocked then and I at least stand by that opinion today. Estimates at the time were that AmazonMP3 had about 2 million songs available - that number could increase substantially as labels feel the pressure of news like today's.

Unfortunately, of course there's a gimmick in the 1 billion song promotion - you'll have to buy 5 Pepsi products to get 5 codes for each MP3. According to a great summary of the news at PaidContent, a similar Pepsi promotion for iTunes that aimed to give away 100 million songs in 2004 only saw 5 million people participate. These are different days, though, and DRM + excessive soda consumption = free music is far less compelling than a straight path from soda to tunes, I suppose. If they were serious about it they could just as easily offer one song for one soda - but the economics wouldn't work out. Rumor has it that Amazon wants to pay the labels only 40 cents for each song they give away, as opposed to the current industry standard of 70 cents." (source)

8 Kick-Ass Movies You Didn't Know Were Based on Books

If you could go back in time and make the world's best action flick "Die Hard" in the 1960's, who would you get to star in the Bruce Willis role of John McClane?

When asked the question we immediately thought of Steve McQueen, since he's like in the top 5 list of the world's coolest dudes. Oddly, we were pointed in the direction of Frank Sinatra. Hmmmm....not a bad choice.

Then it was pointed out that this scenario already happened.

What? How did we miss that?

Thanks to the "8 Kick-Ass Movies You Didn't Know Were Based on Books" post it was flushed out the "Die Hard" was not only based on a book, but that book was a sequel. You guessed right if you said the first book was adapted in a movie in the late 60's staring Sinatra.

Well, we learned something new today. Of course there's no way to take away from the glory that is "Die Hard." It is said Roger Ebert described "Die Hard" as "the cinematic equivalent of Hulk Hogan wrestling a bear. While on fire." Throw in some ninjas and we agree.

Japanese cook does a "'spinning egg and cut" trick

Astronauts test sex in space - but did the earth move?

US and Russian astronauts have had sex in space for separate research programmes on how human beings might survive years in orbit, according to a book published yesterday.

Pierre Kohler, a respected French scientific writer, says in The Final Mission: Mir, The Human Adventure that the subject is taboo both at Nasa and at mission control in Moscow, but that cosmic couplings have taken place.

"The issue of sex in space is a serious one," he says. "The experiments carried out so far relate to missions planned for married couples on the future International Space Station, the successor to Mir. Scientists need to know how far sexual relations are possible without gravity."

He cites a confidential Nasa report on a space shuttle mission in 1996. A project codenamed STS-XX was to explore sexual positions possible in a weightless atmosphere.

Twenty positions were tested by computer simulation to obtain the best 10, he says. "Two guinea pigs then tested them in real zero-gravity conditions. The results were videotaped but are considered so sensitive that even Nasa was only given a censored version."

Jennifer Love Hewitt Defends Hawaii Pictures

Jennifer Love Hewitt is the latest celebrity to lash out at paparazzi photos. Jennifer Love Hewitt, who has always had a triangle shape but is still a looker, is defending her Hawaii pictures with her new man in which people were saying she looked too heavy.

The Hawaii Pictures have caused enough stir to get Hewitt to personally respond to the situation:

This is the last time I will address this subject.

I've sat by in silence for a long time now about the way women's bodies are constantly scrutinized. To set the record straight, I'm not upset for me, but for all of the girls out there that are struggling with their body image.

A size 2 is not fat! Nor will it ever be. And being a size 0 doesn't make you beautiful.

What I should be doing is celebrating some of the best days of my life and my engagement to the man of my dreams, instead of having to deal with photographers taking invasive pictures from bad angles. I know what I look like, and so do my friends and family. And like all women out there should, I love my body.

To all girls with butts, boobs, hips and a waist, put on a bikini -- put it on and stay strong.

Xoxo

BCS Selection Show. Who Will Play In The BCS Championship?

The BCS Selection Show will air on Fox at 8 PM EST in the spot usually reserved for The Simpsons. 2007 has brought the most unusual and chaotic season to the BCS as the top 4 spots changed hands many, many times. #1 Missouri and #2 West Virginia both lost last night.

Technically, Georgia can play for the BCS title game which is just down right silly. They didn't even play in the SEC Championship. LSU should get fan votes to beat Georgia and join Ohio State in the title game. However, don't count out Oklahoma who beat former #1 Missouri last night.

Zoey Zane Website Back Online - Help Catch Isreal Mireles

Zoey Zane, A.K.A Emily Sander

Here's a new one for us. The Adult Internet star Zoey Zane (AKA Emily Sander) has brought her site back online. Instead of nude pictures of Zoey Zane, the webmaster has wisely added the mug shots of her accused murderer along with a reward for his capture.

Emily Sander led a mostly secret life as the Internet porn star Zoey Zane. When Emily Sander disappeared last week the pieces of her life fell in line for friends, family, and the community. Now, the Zoey Zane website is focused on finding Isreal Mireles was last seen with Emily Sander.

We are currently offering a reward in the amount of $3,000 for anyone who can provide any information that leads to the capture of Isreal Mireles. If law enforcement captures Israel Mireles using their own resources, the collected reward money will be offered to the family of Emily Sander. If the Sander family refuses to take the money, it will be donated to the charity of the Sander family's choice....

If you would like to contribute to this reward fund you may visit any
Bank of America Branch and depostit funds to the following account:

Routing Number # 101100045
Checking Account # 518000337676

We thank Bank Of America for working with us and setting this up.

We will be updating the site daily with the new reward total.

Another statement on the Zoey Zane Website mentions a "David Thomas" as leaking information not relevant to the case, mainly calling Zoey Zane a "Porn" star instead of the webmaster's approved term "Nude Model."

It truly saddens us to see, in this day and age, that we still live in a society that ridicules a woman for doing something that is completely legal. There was some incorrect information leaked to the press on Wednesday by an unknown individual named "David Thomas" claiming to have information about Emily's huge "Porn" career. He has nothing to do with our company nor do we know any individual by that name.

Now, due to your irresponsible journalism and not checking your facts before sending out this info over the news wire, you have turned this into a PR feeding frenzy for the sole purpose of creating drama to draw in viewers. We want to set the record straight. Emily was a solo nude model whose site went live September 25, 2007. She was exactly that - a solo girl model. As soon as these false facts were released, YOU the media, from your "Porn" story you ran, have sent more traffic to Emily's adult site in 2 hours than the site has received in 2 months - since the site has gone live. We ask all media outlets - please show some class and respect, for once, on a very sad and misfortunate situation, and get back to the main focus now of capturing Israel Mireles.

We're not sure if the webmaster is focused on us or someone else with a similar name. Just for the record, being a nude model is doing Porn. It's OK. A lot of people use terms daily that they don't know the meaning of.

Besides, she DID do more than solo work. There are more than a few galleries out there with her and other women. (see pictured proof below) There's also a gallery of her with an "adult toy." In fact the same webmaster who issued the above statement to be "Classy" and not called Zoey Zane a porn star advertises her site as:

Hey all! I'm a spunky little teen with a super sexy side! As soon as I turned 18 I started shooting for my site. I love getting down 'n dirty in front of the camera when I'm all horny!! You won't find pictures or videos like mine anywhere else. I really aim to please!! You'll get a new update every 3 days, too! I even shoot some really sexy photos and videos with some of my hot girlfriends! We can't seem to keep our hands off each other! We're always finding new ways to turn each other on!

Zoey Zane and her "Solo" Work

Look up the definition of the term yourself. The term "pornography" is derived from the Latin "pornographos," which means writing about prostitutes.

The actual term "pornography" today means:

• 1 : the depiction of erotic behavior (as in pictures or writing) intended to cause sexual excitement

But, the fact of the matter is that a girl is dead and her accused murderer is on the loose. We can have a pissing contest later over the terminology you use that lets you feel better. We understand the webmaster's anger in the situation and we hope that we can do anything to help find her killer.

So, jump onto the Zoey Zane website and read up on the story. If you feel like helping out in adding to the reward money you can do so there. Mireles was driving a 2007 Ford Taurus rental car, which turned up Tuesday, November 27 in Texas, just near where he had family. Authorities believe that he is either trying to cross the Texas border to Mexico, or have already crossed the border. He also has family ties in Mexico.

Pin Up Calendars For Hospitalized Vets

Gentlemen, meet Gina Elise.

Gina is creating Pin Up calendars for hospitalized war vets and soldiers around the world. We have always been a fan of the retro, sexy calendars that have made soldiers a little happier for decades.

Gina is the model in all the pictures and we're not complaining. She's super hot and busty and does the traditional pin-up girls justice. We hope she meets her goal to help out our boys.

The "Pin Up for Vets" has three purposes:

1. The calendars would be sold to raise funds for our hospitalized Veterans.

2. The calendars would be delivered as gifts to our ill and injured Veterans with messages of appreciation from the donors.

3. The calendars would be sent to our deployed troops to help boost morale and to let them know that Americans back home are thinking of them.

If you'd like to help out the soldiers and purchase a calendar, check out Gina's site and you can get the calendars or posters.

2 Girls, 1 Cup: Who Created It?

A kitten is killed each time someone views the "2 Girls, 1 Cup" video. Thanks to the power of the Internet, the creator of "2 Girls, 1 Cup" is now known. His name is Marco Fiorito and he's one sick fuck.

Now we just have to track down the dude who did "2 Girls, 1 Finger" and the eunuchs who did the "BME Pain Olympics" and have them stoned to death for ruining our appetites.

(via the Smoking Gun) Been wondering about the identity of the auteur behind the "2 Girls, 1 Cup" video that has been making millions of Internet users gag? Well, the repulsive video--which has become such an online sensation that it has been knocked off by John Mayer, Perez Hilton, and has launched tons of hilarious "reaction" videos--can be blamed on Marco Fiorito, a Brazilian man who describes himself as a "compulsive fetishist" and "an artist in the art of movie making."

The 36-year-old Sao Paulo resident became interested in cinema in 1994 and, two years later, began a fetish film business with his wife. "When we started, the only films that we made were about feet fetishes," Firotio recalled in a court declaration, a copy of which you'll find below. Fiorito would move on to more revolting fare, with his videos often involving excrement (as the "2 Girls, 1 Cup" video shows).

That film was produced by MFX-Video, one of several Fiorito companies that included his initials in their name (an exception, of course, was the firm Vomit Brazil). While Fiorito contends that his revolting films are not illegal in Brazil, some of his works have been branded obscene by U.S. prosecutors and led last year to the indictment of Danilo Croce, a Brazilian lawyer who lived in Florida and was listed on corporate documents as an officer of a company distributing Fiorito's films.

In his legal declaration, which was filed in U.S. District Court in Orlando, Fiorito contended that Croce, 43, had no role in his movie business, other than helping to process credit card transactions through a travel company the attorney owned. In June, Croce, who cooperated with investigators, copped a plea and was later sentenced to three years of unsupervised probation (since he was returning to Brazil) and ordered to forfeit $98,000.

In his declaration, Fiorito explained that had he known that selling his films in the U.S. was illegal, "I would have stopped because the money is not the main reason that I make these films." He then added, "I have already made fetish movies with scat/feces using chocolate instead of feces. Many actors make scat films but they don't agree to eat feces."

Police Arrest 4 in Sean Taylor Murder

The Miami-Dade Police Department arrested four people Friday in connection with the shooting death of Washington Redskins star Sean Taylor.

Police spokeswoman Linda O'Brien identified the men as: Venjah K. Hunte, 20; Eric Rivera Jr., 17; Jason Scott Mitchell, 17; and Charles Kendrick Lee Wardlow, 18. O'Brien said the charges for each had not yet been determined, but "we are talking murder and burglary."

The four men were arrested Friday in southwest Florida, about 100 miles from Miami. They will be booked into the Lee County Jail and eventually will be returned to Miami, she said. O'Brien did not have any information on when they would appear in court or if they had attorneys.

Taylor died Tuesday, one day after being shot at his home in an affluent Miami suburb during what officials said appeared to be an attempted burglary. The suspects weren't expecting Taylor to be home, police director Robert Parker said, but Taylor was recuperating from a knee injury and had returned to Miami from Washington.

"They were certainly not looking to go there and kill anyone," Parker said. He added authorities had more than one confession but would not elaborate.

Evel Knievel Dead at 69

Say it ain't so !

Daredevil master Evel Knievel has passed away at the age of 69. This comes a week after resolving a lawsuit with rapper Kanye West in which West made a video that used Knievel's stunt of jumping the Snake River.

Evel Knievel, the red-white-and-blue-spangled motorcycle daredevil whose jumps over crazy obstacles including Greyhound buses, live sharks and Idaho's Snake River Canyon made him an international icon in the 1970s, died Friday at his home in Florida.

Evel Knievel's death was confirmed by his granddaughter, Krysten Knievel. He had been in failing health for years, suffering from diabetes and pulmonary fibrosis, an incurable condition that scarred his lungs.

Evel Knievel had undergone a liver transplant in 1999 after nearly dying of hepatitis C, likely contracted through a blood transfusion after one of his bone-shattering spills.

Longtime friend and promoter Billy Rundel said Knievel had trouble breathing at his Clearwater condominium and died before an ambulance could get him to a hospital.

Evel Knievel's death came just two days after it was announced that he and rapper Kanye West had settled a federal lawsuit over the use of Knievel's trademarked image in a popular West music video.

Knievel made a good living selling his autographs and endorsing products. Thousands came to Butte, Mont., every year as his legend was celebrated during the "Evel Knievel Days" festival, which Rundel organizes.

Born in the wide-open copper mining town of Butte, Montana, on October 17, 1938, Robert Craig Knievel was raised by his grandparents from the age of 6. At age 8, he saw Joey Chitwood's Auto Daredevil Show, which he later credited for his career choice.

Cajun Boy in the City, as you may know, is a big LSU fan. Even though the Tigers can't lay a lick on the Arkansas Razorbacks or Kentucky Wildcats (both of which UT beat without OT!), LSU has lucked into the SEC Championship game in Atlanta.

Mohamed Teddy Bear Teacher, Gillian Gibbons, Gets 15 days in jail

Gillian Gibbons, a British schoolteacher was behind bars in an overcrowded Sudanese prison last night after being convicted of inciting religious hatred for letting her pupils name a teddy bear Mohamed.

Gillian Gibbons, 54, escaped a sentence of 40 lashes after apologizing to the court for any offense she had caused. But Gillian Gibbons began serving a 15-day sentence in a women’s prison where the regime is extremely harsh by Western standards.

Many Sudanese consider Omdurman’s women’s prison to be one of the country’s more comfortable jails. It is, however, overcrowded. Many inmates are southern Sudanese women convicted of selling alcohol, and many have babies. Gillian Gibbons will have to rely on wellwishers bringing her food and water.

Gillian Gibbons conviction under blasphemy laws led to angry protests by some Muslims in Khartoum as they emerged from Friday prayers. Many of the protesters were armed with knives and chanted slogans calling for Gillian Gibbons to be killed for allowing her pupils to call a teddy bear Mohamed.

Hidden Dangers in Visiting Porn Sites

Online pornography hunters' Internet adventures are already fraught with danger from malicious code many porn sites use to commandeer visitors' machines or steal personal data.

Now comes a scheme some researchers say amounts to extortion: One site's threat to disable visitors' computers with relentless pop-up ads if they don't pay for a subscription they were automatically signed up for after a free trial.

The threats, reported this week by researchers at security vendor McAfee Inc.'s Avert Labs, affect people who visit the Web site and download software to access a free three-day trial membership.

Visitors do get free access for three days, but the download includes code that then generates a stream of pop-up windows, when the user is online and offline, demanding payment of roughly $80 for 90 days' worth of additional access.

The windows stay open up to 10 minutes and appear once a day. They appear on top of any open windows and restore to their original size if shrunk or moved, making them impossible to ignore. They also reappear if the computer is rebooted.

The site actually warns visitors they will be billed as full members—and lose full use of their computers if they don't—unless they cancel the subscription within the trial period. But the warning appears in the full terms and conditions statement, which downloaders aren't required to read.

Once the fees are paid, the software can be removed with a special file.

"What it appears they are doing is, in my humble opinion, a form of extortion based on the (usually correct) assumption that a person's computer will be key to many other activities in their daily life," McAfee researcher Seth Purdy wrote on the Avert Labs blog. (source)

The outrageously politically incorrect adverts from the time equality forgot

(via Steve) In a politically correct age, they seem like outrageous anachronisms.

And there is no doubt these adverts - many taken from the first half of the last century - reveal just how much women used to be caricatured as downtrodden housewives or hair-brained office girls.

Now, a new book - You Mean A Woman Can Open It?: The Woman's Place In The Classic Age Of Advertising - brings together images which would surely cause a howl of protest if they were released today.

Police Report: Lori Drew Contributed To Megan Meier's Suicide

The Bully in question. Lori Drew Photo

The Smoking Gun has posted the official police report that legally "outs" Lori Drew as the culprit behind the Megan Meier MySpace Suicide. In fact is states Lori Drew approached the Meiers to "tell them what she did to contribute to (Megan's) suicide."

Just to repeat (for those following the story), the St. Charles County Sheriff could not find any illegal activity.

Here is the police report detailing the heartless online hoax that apparently triggered last year's suicide of 13-year-old Megan Meier.

However, as the St. Charles County Sheriff's Department report notes, Megan's online friend "Josh Evans" was, in fact, the creation of a local family seeking to determine whether Megan was saying derogatory things about their daughter. The adult behind the "Josh" ruse was Lori Drew, whose daughter had been friends with Megan, who died 13 months ago. Drew admitted to police that she created the phony MySpace profile in a bid to smoke out negative comments about her child by Megan.

It was only after the girl's death (which is detailed in this sheriff's report) that her mother, Tina, discovered that "Josh" was created by Drew, who lived four doors away. After law enforcement agencies determined that Drew apparently could not be held criminally accountable, the Meier family decided to go public with details of the hoax.

Drew approached the sheriff's department last November, after "the neighborhood...found out her involvement in Megan's suicide and her neighbors have become hostile toward her and her family."

Drew, the report noted, wanted the neighborhood tension to be documented in case any of her property was subsequently damaged. Since last December, Drew, 48, has filed three police complaints alleging harassment and property damage in retaliation for her MySpace hoax. She has reported a brick being thrown through her kitchen window and claimed that Megan's father Ronald yelled at her, "Who are you gonna kill today?"

In April, Drew told police that a paintball had been shot at her sunroom's window, causing about $50 in damage. While Drew had previously placed a surveillance camera in the sunroom, the tape did not help identify a suspect. And, as a sheriff's report notes, "Drews did not wish to release the tape, as she anticipated a civil law suit against her by Meier and may need the tape for legal purposes." (source)

Zoey Zane Update - The Body of Emily Sander Found

Photo of Zoey Zane (Emily Sander)

A body found in Kansas appears to be that of a missing college student Emily Sander who led a secret life as the adult Internet star Zoey Zane , police said Thursday.

Authorities said the preliminary physical description of the body found about 50 miles east of El Dorado matches that of missing college student Emily Sander. Investigators refused to give details about the state of the body or how it was found.

Police Chief Tom Boren said the cause of death was not yet known. An autopsy is planned.

Emily Sander, 18, was last seen leaving an El Dorado bar Friday with a man who has been the focus of a nationwide search since police found large quantities of blood in a Kansas motel room where he was staying.

Prior to finding the body, investigators said they had not found a link between Emily Sander and her activities as an online adult film star named Zoey Zane. But publicity about her explicit photos brought a flood of tips, many of them false leads.

Via the Dreamin' Demon, here is a timeline of the last days of Zoey Zane/Emily Sander.

Emily Sander/Zoey Zane Timeline

Friday: Emily Sander, 18, is last seen leaving the Retreat bar in El Dorado with Israel Mireles (pictured left), 24.

Saturday: Police find room Room 21 of the El Dorado Motel splattered with blood, where a manager reported an altercation may have occurred. The motel is a mile and a half from the Retreat Bar. Mireles had been staying at that motel while he worked as a waiter at Bella Casa which is next to the motel. Police find Sander’s car parked at the bar. Meanwhile, police say, Mireles left Kansas for Texas on Saturday, taking his pregnant 16-year-old girlfriend, Victoria Martens, with him.

Sunday: Police release photos of Emily Sander, Israel Mireles and his girlfriend.

Monday: Police announced they found “evidence” in Mireles’ hotel room.

Tuesday: Police ask the public to help find a flower print bedspread that went missing from the motel room on the night Emily disappeared. Joe Terziu, the owner of the Bella Casa Italian Restaurant where Mireles worked, told The Wichita Eagle that he saw what looked like blood on a bed and carpet.

Wednesday: The rental car Mireles was driving was found abandoned Tuesday in Vernon, Texas, where he has relatives. Search teams walked along U.S. 54 in Greenwood County and in El Dorado near a bridge crossing the Walnut River.

Thursday: The body of a woman matching Sander’s description is found along U.S. 54 Highway between El Dorado and Toronto.

2 Girls 1 Finger Video - Worse Than 2 Girls 1 Cup !!

3 girls watching 2 girls 1 Finger
What a disgusting and twisted world we live in! When did Schiesse videos become pop culture?

We thought the Internet hit the gutter with the infamous 2 Girls 1 Cup video. Enter the BME Pain Olympics where dudes takes sharp things to their junk. Now, after people telling us that there is a worse video than the Two Girls One Cup fiasco we just had to check it out.

It's called 2 Girls, 1 Finger and is pretty much digs deeper in the gutter. 2 Japanese chicks sticking their fingers down their mouths to puke gives this video its title. They proceed to play with said puke before doing a little "69" position where the top chick shows off her pooping abilities, into the open mouth below.

You can find the 2 Girls, 1 Finger video by finding "2girls1finger.com" out on the 'Net. Please be warned, it's for adults only who don't mind scat videos. The German accordian music adds a nice touch, tough.

NFL Network Leaves Football Fans In The Dark

The two best teams in the NFC are playing this Thursday night and the odds are you won't be able to see the game.

The NFL Network is in a big fight with cable companies to get the fledgling 24-hour football channel in their lineup. So far, the NFL Network reaches only about 35 million customers, a fraction of the big channels like ESPN or the networks who get way over 110 million customers.

Thursdays game between the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys will be broadcast locally for fans, so they don't have to worry. Most satellite networks have the NFL Network, too.

However, the bulk of the country that is still with cable which won't bow to the NFL's demands. The problem lies in the NFL wanting steep fees from the cable companies for the channel. The NFL Network only shows 8 regular season games a year and the rest is pretty much highlights. Asking people who don't want the programming to fork over more for their monthly cable bill all year long for that is a bit much, we agree.

The NFL also sued to get in the upper channel lineup of some of the bigger cable providers. Cable said "No" and won the lawsuit which prompted the NFL to start an online campaign to get people to switch providers.

In Knoxville, we get the NFL Network (channel 180) and we have to say the channel is just another junk channel with the exception of the few games they broadcast. You'd think if the NFL would be so demanding they wouldn't put the worst duo ever of Bryant Gumbel and Chris Collinsworth in the broadcasting booth.

Jeez! Listening to a game called by Bryant Gumbel is like hearing Kermit the Frog for 3 hours. It makes the game almost unwatchable. We're waiting for Fozzie Bear to step in and offer some sideline analysis.

However, Comcast Cable in Knoxville has made the NFL Network available on a subscription level as to not pass a yearly fee to the many that don't want to pay $2/month for something they don't want. Our NFL Network is offered in a "Sports Tier" which includes a few soccer channels, some various Fox Sports Channels from out west, the NBA Channel, and the upcoming NHL Channel (available in Knoxville 12-12-07!)

We like sports so we don't mind paying that fee and we believe that is the way it should be. Cable companies regularly force dozens of channels on us that we would never watch. Of course, most of the channels would easily go out of business if people had to pay "a la carte" for them. Seriously, would you actually pay for the "Fine Living Network"?

Lori Drew, Infamous Megan Meier MySpace Suicide Bully, Won't Be Charged

The Bully in question. First Lori Drew Photo we've found.

The St. Charles Journal still will not come out in public to verify the name of Megan Meier's bully. The Journal drew outrage from citizens when it started the Megan Meier Myspace suicide story and refused to name the parent who pretended to be a 16-year old boy named Josh Evans.

Because of the actions of Josh Evans, Megan Meier (pictured left) hanged herself in her closet before knowing that Josh was created by a group of people led by Lori Drew who conspired to harass and bully Megan.

Citizens of Dardenne Prairie, Missouri, were quick to call out a neighbor of the Meiers, the Drew family, as the source of the harassment. Lori and Curt Drew have been named in mainstream media when a police report circulated with Lori's name uncensored.

However, the St. Charles Journal sticks to its guns and won't name Megan Meiers cyberbully. At this point it really doesn't matter. ABC, CNN, AP News, the UK's International Herald, and other major outlets have already run with the names which only makes the St. Charles Journal look that more sluggish.

What's more disturbing is that the St. Charles County officials still will not charge Lori Drew with any crimes. No civil lawsuit has been filed, either. With our legal society that lives to find reasons to sue and go to court, this little suburb of St. Louis has no law, either Federal or Local, that they can use to defend Megan Meier, even with a police report stating Lori Drew's involvement and her conspiracy against Megan.

But the allegation, and lack of action, has bewildered and enraged America. Virtual vigilantism has taken over. Irate bloggers have posted details of Lori Drew and her husband Curt, 51, on the internet identifying their home and telephone number and details of their jobs, his as a manager in a local factory, hers as an ad saleswoman.

The couple, now bombarded with hate mail and reportedly receiving death threats, have remained silent on legal advice.

Now Dardenne Prairie is turning on them. They are shunned by neighbors. They have had a brick through their window and been subjected to a paintball attack and false 911 calls. Last week the town's board of aldermen unanimously passed a law making cyber-harassment a misdeamenor with a maximum penalty of 90 days in jail and/or a $500 fine.

'It's not much,' admitted Mayor Pam Fogarty, who hugged a tearful Tina Meier after the vote; her own daughter went to the same school as Megan and she was due to join the candlelit vigil. 'But it's a start. We intend to press for changes to the state and federal laws.'

Tina, now in the process of divorcing Ron, concedes Lori Drew may not have thought of the consequences of her actions. But, she says, Megan Meier had had a 'typical teenager' on-off-on-again friendship with her own daughter, had regularly slept over at their house and accompanied them on family outings. Drew knew of Megan's emotional problems, for which she was receiving counselling and medication.

'She might as well have held a gun to her head. She thought it was funny, she thought it was a game. I just want them behind bars,' Tina said. 'She was an adult and she preyed on and stalked a child, posing as a 16-year-old boy. She messed with her. She screwed with her mind. She lifted her up and then crushed her right back down.'

'I hear she's receiving death threats and that she's been besieged in their home. But I don't feel one ounce sorry for her for the repercussions in any shape or form. I intend to fight to the bitter end to see her prosecuted.' (source)

Death Of Zoey Zane, Internet Porn Star Who Led Secret Life

Is Emily Sander "Zoey Zane"?

An 18-year-old Kansas student, Emily Sander, who went missing over the weekend is now believed to have lead a secret double life as an online porn star, Zoey Zane. A woman that looks curiously similar to missing 18-year-old Emily Sander was found on a Zoey Zane website (zoey-zane.com). The ZoeyZane.com website is down, as expected, and most of her pictures are being pulled off the Internet.

A few Zoey Zane photo galleries are still up but most are advertising her site. Check the link for the Zoey Zane photo galleries at the bottom of this post to see if they are still up.

Nikki Watson, a close friend of Emily Sander, told reporters, "She enjoyed it. She is a young teenage girl and she wanted to be in the movies and enjoyed movies. She needed the extra money. Nobody in El Dorado knew besides her close friends." The two went to school together at Butler Community College.

Police involved in the investigation have acknowledged that they are aware of the website, but have so far refused to confirm whether or not Emily Sander is in fact "Zoey Zane." They would also not reveal whether the Zoey Zane website was at all connected to her disappearance.

According to Watson, Emily Sander had recently signed a contract for the porn site, and told her parents about it over Thanksgiving. She also said that she had told her boyfriend, and that they had broken up because he did not approve.

The website in question is registered to a Wichita, Kansas address, and was activated in April of this year. The website has since been taken down, but a Google cache snapshot dated November 21 shows what the site looked like, as well as a few pictures of "Zoey Zane."

Nintendo Sells Over 650,000 Wiis In Last Two Weeks

Wow! We're lucky we got a Nintendo Wii when we did. It seems to be the hottest thing right now. Currently, Nintendo is manufacturing 1.8 million Wii systems a month to reach demand worldwide and they cannot keep up.

"I couldn't find a single Wii system on the shelves - literally as I was walking into a Wal-Mart at 11 a.m., someone was walking out with the last one," stated Fils-Aime. "Consumers are buying every game we can put into the system."

Earlier this year, Nintendo predicted that they would sell 17.5 million Wii systems before the end of the fiscal year, which ends on March 31.

Southern Man Tries To Pass Off Million Dollar Bill

What the Million Dollar Bill should look like

The Aiken County (South Carolina) Sheriff's Office arrested an Augusta man who tried to open a bank account with a counterfeit $1,000,000 bill, which just happens to not exist.

Alexander D. Smith is charged with disorderly conduct and forgery.

Investigators say Smith gave the counterfeit bill to a teller at Regions Bank in Clearwater, South Carolina. The employee refused to accept the bill and called the sheriff's office.

Officers say Smith also purchased several cartons of cigarettes with a stolen check over the weekend.

The largest denomination of currency ever printed is the $100,000 bill. The bill was printed back in the 1930s.

JR Rotem - Britney Spears Latest Baby Maker

Why is it White Trash and birth control don't mix?

The Queen of Trailer Trash, Britney Spears, is allegedly knocked up again. This time the baby's daddy is going to be J.R. Rotem, a music producer who looks greasy enough to fit the part.
J.R. Rotem, a class act himself, once bragged to Blender Magazine he plowed Britney Spears "wheelbarrow" style (see illustration above) in a frantic sex fling the 2 had. In the past, Rotem has boasted of other conquests - Bai Ling, Hayden Panettiere, Mya and Meagan Good, among others - though he didn’t divulge specific details, other than to say that none of those young ladies “got him as far” as Britney.

Wow! What a sex tape that would be. Nothing turns us on more than a passionate love fest between chain smoking meth heads. It's nice to know that Britney Spears is having another kid since she's doing so well with her other ones.

Speed Racer Movie Will Be All Green Screen

Empire Movie News spoke to Emile Hirsch recently and they were under the impression that Speed Racer, the Wachowski brothers' adaptation of the cult cartoon about a boy who wants to be the best racing driver in the world, was going to be using green screen elements for its reportedly groundbreaking racing sequences, but using old fashioned sets and props for much of the rest of movie.

They had heard rumours that much of it would be filled in later (John Mathieson, who was Director of Photography on Gladiator, apparently turned down the chance to shoot this because of the glut of green), but no concrete confirmation that it was taking the full 300 approach.

"Nope, it's all green screen," Hirsch told Empire Movies.

First HQ Watchmen Set Photos

It is the day for new movie pictures. Indy, Joker, and now the Watchmen. Four new photos are up on the Watchmen Movie blog which show for the first time the 1980's New York City that Alan Moore invisioned.

Director Zack Snyder updates the posts much as he kept fans informed when he made the '300' movie. Shooting in Vancouver, B.C., the crew built their own NYC which includes the Gunga Dinner, Treasure Island comic store, a pawn shop with a Nixon campaign poster, and the infamous newstand where the story centers around.

Batman News: The Joker Revealed Early

Heath Ledger as The Joker

First new pictures of Indiana Jones and now the leaked January edition of Empire Magzine featuring Heath Ledger as The Joker.

Empire Magazine has launched their new edition with a fantastic picture of Heath Ledger as The Joker originally as a teaser.

The site claimed "He is coming..." and featured the image of Heath Ledger but with playing cards over The Jokers face.

That's a moot point now as we all know who "He" is and we all now have access to the full picture.

If you dig this type of movie news than you'll have to check out this cool site called Movie Marketing Madness. This dude combs the 'net for stuff like this. That makes us happy.

Hells Yeah! New Indiana Jones 4 Pictures

Throw me the whip and I'll throw you the idol!

AICN has blessed us all with new and exciting pictures from the upcoming Indiana Jones 4 flick. Harrison Ford steps back into the leather coat and whip and looks all the part of Indiana Jones.

Dweeb Shia LaBeouf, who has the worst name of any actor, plays Indiana Jones son. Karen Allen returns as Indy's former flame. No word yet that we know of on who is Shia's mother in the flick but we' assume it is Allen's and Ford's. Cate Blanchett plays a bad, Russian chick who probably needs a spanking. We assumed that, too.

(via Cinematical) The plot of the film has been kept hidden from us for quite some time, though small nuggets of info have leaked out. We know that Karen Allen will reprise the role of Marion Ravenwood, and that LaBeouf is Indy's kid.

Cate Blanchett reportedly plays a Russian bad girl, while Indy will be off in search of the elusive crystal skulls. Some folks claim the film will return to the warehouse seen at the end of Raiders -- the one that holds the Ark of the Covenant -- though we still don't know for sure.

Either way, I must say old Harrison Ford looks pretty good for his age. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull arrives in theaters on May 22. Check out the other two images after the jump.

Washington Redskins Safety Sean Taylor Dies After Gunshot

A Redskins fan stands at the parking spot of Washington Redskins star safety Sean Taylor at Redskins Park

Sad news from the sports world. 24-year old Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor died early Tuesday, a day after the Pro Bowl player was shot at home by what police say was an intruder.

"His father called and said he was with Christ and he cried and thanked me," said Sharpstein, Taylor's former lawyer. "It's a tremendously sad and unnecessary event. He was a wonderful, humble, talented young man, and had a huge life in front of him. Obviously God had other plans."

Sean Taylor died at Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he had been airlifted after the shooting early Monday, Sharpstein said.

Sean Taylor was the Washington Redskins first round pick in 2004.

Doctors had been encouraged late Monday when Sean Taylor squeezed a nurse's hand, according to Vinny Cerrato, the Redskins' vice president of football operations. But Sharpstein said he was told Taylor never regained consciousness after being transported to the hospital and that he wasn't sure how he had squeezed the nurse's hand.

"Maybe he was trying to say goodbye or something," Sharpstein said.

Sean Taylor was shot early Monday in the upper leg, damaging an artery and causing significant blood loss.

"According to a preliminary investigation, it appears that the victim was shot inside the home by an intruder," Miami-Dade County police said in a statement.

But police were still investigating the attack (pictured below), which came just eight days after an intruder was reported at Taylor's home. Officers were dispatched about 1:45 a.m. Monday after Taylor's girlfriend called 911.

Sharpstein said Sean Taylor's girlfriend told him the couple was awakened by loud noises, and Taylor grabbed a machete he keeps in the bedroom for protection. Someone then broke through the bedroom door and fired two shots, one missing and one hitting Taylor, Sharpstein said. Taylor's 1-year-old daughter, Jackie, was also in the house, but neither she nor Taylor's girlfriend were injured.

Police found signs of forced entry, but have not determined if they were caused Monday, or the previous burglary.

The shooting happened in the pale yellow house he bought two years ago in the Miami suburb of Palmetto Bay. Eight days before the attack someone pried open a front window, rifled through drawers and left a kitchen knife on a bed at Sean Taylor's home, according to police.

Finding A Nintendo Wii For Christmas With Wii Tracker

Since the Nintendo Wii launched in November of last year, the video game console has become a cultural phenomenon, selling out across the country and topping children's and adults holiday wish lists.

As a result of the increasing demand and ongoing supply issues, Nintendo has been unable to keep the console on store shelves, forcing many parents to spend their days camping out in front of local electronics outlets.

Here in Knoxville there's not a Nintendo Wii to be found. We did, however, spot the Guitar Hero III at the Target the other day. We're willing to bet they will all be gone when we check back tomorrow.

Desperate Wii-hunters in Canada have developed an online Wii tracker that should be able to help you in your search. The tool scans the stocks of Amazon, Best Buy, Circuit City, Costco, Future Shop and Toys R Us for consoles and reports them on its website.

Microsoft Windows Vista Voted Worst Tech Product

How bad is Windows Vista?

Well, time will tell on that one. Rival Apple is setting records in sells and XP, the previous windows system, has seen dramatic increases in sells coupled with lawsuits from people who were not allowed the option to get XP on a new computer. XP is still an option on new computers from Dell and other manufacturers.

While the dust is settling on what could be the biggest blunder by the bullies at Microsoft since Windows ME, cNet has gathered a list of worst tech products with good, old Windows Vista at the top of the list.

Older white women join Kenya's sex tourists

Bethan, 56, lives in southern England on the same street as best friend Allie, 64.

They are on their first holiday to Kenya, a country they say is "just full of big young boys who like us older girls."

Hard figures are difficult to come by, but local people on the coast estimate that as many as one in five single women visiting from rich countries are in search of sex.

Allie and Bethan -- who both declined to give their full names -- said they planned to spend a whole month touring Kenya's palm-fringed beaches.

26-year old Casey Calvert, Guitarist for Hawthorne Heights, Dead

Casey Calvert, guitarist for post punk/ rock band Hawthorne Heights, was found dead early Saturday morning. Calvert was 26-years-old.

According to several accounts Casey Calvert appeared healthy on Friday night while spending time with friends before going to sleep for the night. Those same reports indicated that Casey Calvert passed away at some point while sleeping.

Calvert’s sound played a big role in Hawthorne Heights and its highly successful second album If Only You Were Lonely which debuted at #3 on the Billboard charts and produced the hit single “Saying Sorry.”

Hawthorne Heights had a show in Detroit, Michigan on Friday night and was scheduled for a show on Saturday in Washington D.C.

The official site of Hawthorne Heights posted a message on their front page stating:

“Today is probably the worst day ever. Its with our deepest regrets that we have to write this. Casey Calvert passed away in his sleep last night. We found out this afternoon before sound-check. We've spent the entire day trying to come to grips with this and figure out as much as possible. At this time we're not sure what exactly happened. Just last night he was joking around with everyone before he went to bed. We can say with absolute certainty that he was not doing anything illegal. Please, out of respect to Casey and his family, don't contribute or succumb to any gossip you may hear. We don't want his memory to be tainted in the least. Casey was our best friend. He was quirky and awesome and there will truly be no others like him! His loss is unexplainable. As soon as we know more we will let you know.” (source)

University of Tennessee Going To SEC Championship

Atlanta, here comes the Vols! Fans in Knoxville are busy making their trip plans to meet up at the SEC Championship at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia, on December 1st.

A spirited game between the Tennessee Volunteers and Kentucky Wildcats was finally decided in 4 Overtimes. We are staring in disbelief at the TV wondering how in the world the UT Vols came out of Kentucky with a win after the 4 OT's. Not that Tennessee didn't deserve it. The boys played hard, as did Kentucky, but it was just one of those games where a lot of funky stuff happened. There was no telling who was going to win this one!

UT blocked a FG attempt in OT and almost ran it back to win the game. The teams traded points in the OT until Kentucky failed on the final 2-point conversion. If you missed the game you missed out on a great one. There were over 1,000 net yards by both teams along with 13 TD passes, 5 interceptions, and over 100 pass attempts.

The game was sloppy and the run defenses were non existent which led to a high flying offensive showdown that was highly entertaining. Kudos to the squad for pulling out a championship season out of one that started out very poorly.

However, the best part of the day was when Georgia was eliminated from the SEC Championship with UT's win. Mmmmmmm....tastes sweeter!

Now, it's on to Georgia to meet LSU. We think we'll try to get in a wager with Cajun Boy since he's a Tiger fan. So, if you're a Vol fan be sure to head over to Cajun's site and leave a comment. Tell him we sent ya!

Red Hot Chili Peppers Sue Showtime Over 'Californication'

The Red Hot Chili Peppers filed a lawsuit on Monday against Showtime Networks over the name of the David Duchovny series "Californication," which also happens to be the name of the band's 1999 album and hit single.

"Californication," which debuted in August, stars former "X-Files" lead Duchovny as novelist Hank Moody, who is struggling with a midlife crisis in the midst of a serious bout of writer's block. The title of the show isn't the only Chili Peppers reference.

In fact, actress Rachel Miner (pictured left) plays a secretary named Dani California, the same name as the hit single the Peppers released in 2006, featuring a character that has appeared in several of the group's songs. (Interestingly, that song was widely criticized at the time of its release for its striking similarities to Tom Petty's 1993 hit "Mary Jane's Last Dance"; both songs were produced by Rick Rubin.)

According to a statement issued by the band's management, the suit alleges unfair competition, dilution of the value of the name and unjust enrichment, claiming the title is "inherently distinctive, famous ... and immediately associated in the mind of the consumer" with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Singer Anthony Kiedis said in the statement, " 'Californication' is the signature CD, video and song of the band's career, and for some TV show to come along and steal our identity is not right." The suit claims that in creating, marketing, promoting and distributing the show, the defendants have been "fraudulent, knowing, willful and wanton" by appropriating the title of one of the band's biggest sellers, which it said has moved 14 million copies worldwide and was nominated for a Best Rock Album Grammy.

Rachel Miner, the punky secretary, was once married to Macaulay Culkin. Yuck!

We're Thankful for Gwen Stefani

It's Thanksgiving weekend and we're thankful for a few things like beer, nachos, guitar hero, and Salma Hayek.

While we sat down this week in front of our deep-fried turkey with nacho cheese sauce, we got to thinking of some of the greater things in life. Like Gwen Stefani. Not her solo music, mind you.

The No Doubt stuff is great but we're not into that new, pop shit she does.

We'll always cherish that time in concert way back in the day when No Doubt opened for Bush. We saw her throwin' winks our way the entire night and we even had the security guys escort us backstage at her request.

We were unlucky, though, when that Gavin dude cock-blocked us and we ended up in the corner all night talking to some roadie about how no one appreciated the 3 of us.

NFL Network vs. Comcast

Beware football fans.

If you're trying to catch the NFL Network on Comcast, which we have here in Knoxville (channel 180 here), it is not a free channel. You have to subscribe to their sports tier to get the NFL Channel which was not the case last year.

The NFL Network will show some Thursday night and Saturday night NFL games this year starting with the Colts/Falcons game Thanksgiving night. If you don't have the NFL Network you can go to their site iwantnflnetwork.com where the NFL informs you on why the cable providers are charging you for their service while the satellite providers are not.

What they don't really tell you is that the NFL Network wanted those providers to put their network on the upper channel numbers for better placement. Comcast said NO, they'll put the NFL Network where they want and a lawsuit came to be.

Comcast won the case and now the NFL is telling football fans on their iwantnflnetwork site their side of the story which has the cable companies seeing red. Mainly because the NFL is suggesting that if the cable companies won't give you the channel than you should switch providers.

Nintendo Wii pulls even with Microsoft's Xbox 360Nintendo Wii pulls even with Microsoft's Xbox 360

In the battle for supremacy in the video-game world, Nintendo's Wii has now matched the Xbox 360 in total market share, despite the Microsoft Corp. console's one-year head start.

But the Xbox 360 is still maintaining a sizable lead over the console that might be considered its more direct competitor, Sony's PlayStation 3.

That's the statistical backdrop as the competition enters a pivotal phase -- Friday's start of the holiday shopping season. A large portion of video-game console sales are traditionally made in November and December.

Thanksgiving NFL Games

If you need an excuse to drop out of the living room than the NFL has 3 games lined up again this Thanksgiving. The first 2 games you can get over the air but you'll need satellite or extended cable to see the last.

Game 3 is Indianapolis Colts at Atlanta Falcons which will air on the NFL channel. Most satellite has that channel in the low 200's and should be part of your package. However, if you have cable, most providers have stuck the NFL channel onto their sports premium lineup which means even though you got it free last year you'll have to pay around $3-5 a month to get it this year.

Putting a baby in an oven is not exactly the best holiday story to come around in awhile. An Orlando woman was charged with turning on an oven and putting her baby in it.

Sharlyn Singh faces aggravated child abuse charges.

Authorities said a man helping the woman's boyfriend move out of their apartment after the couple broke up heard the baby crying and found it in the oven. Singh had left the apartment by that time.

The oven wasn't hot enough to burn the child.

The Ron Paul Express keeps rolling

Ron Paul was able to raise more than $4.2 million on his campaign in a single day via the Internet earlier this month. This week, other figures stand out: Ron Paul attracted a crowd of more than 1,000 people in Nevada, and a new poll showed him doubling his support in New Hampshire.

As is increasingly the case with Ron Paul, the audience that came to hear him speak Monday in Las Vegas was not only large, it was enthusiastic. A story in the Las Vegas Review-Journal has the details and the atmospherics.

In New Hampshire, the survey of likely Republican primary voters by CNN and Manchester-based television station WMUR found backing for Paul jumping from 4% in a September poll to 8% now. In July, Paul was at 2% in the poll; the geometric progression clearly is a trend the Paul camp wants to see continue.

The Bachelor Brad Womack Pick

ABC's publicity wing is in full gear as their reality show "The Bachelor" came to a close with a no-decision.

This season's beef-cake was Brad Womack who had to choose between 2 viable hotties to spend the rest of his life with.

At least that's what we've been told. Reality shows are about as "real" as cartoons but without the entertainment value. We were just tickled that Brad Womack had the choice between the final 2 girls and chose none.

Ouch!

Technology Outpaces The Law - Megan Meier MySpace Suicide Case

How evil is a person that a law does not exist yet for the horrible crime they committed?

For the case of Megan Meier, now known as the MySpace suicide, the answer may never be known. (need info on the case? Get caught up with Lori Drew - Dave and Thomas Asshole Of The Year. Meet The Mother That Drove Megan Meier To Suicide)

Most everyone in Missouri knows now of Lori and Curt Drew. Lori Drew, a middle-aged housewife in DARDENNE PRAIRIE, Missouri, is accused (and in a police report admiting to) harassing 13-year old Megan Meier to such an extent that Megan hanged herself in her closet.

Trouble is that law enforcement, allegedly local and federal along with law firms, claim there is no law broken by Lori Drew even with a digital trail of her harassment along with Megan's parents depiction of the ordeal.

After months of little action by anyone, the story of Megan Meier and her elder stalker/cyberbully Lori Drew, took off on the Internet. Bloggers are credited as to revealing the identity of Lori and Curt Drew when a local newspaper refused.

With fuel added to the fire, the case is taking on great significance as angry people are reading the horrors of Lori Drew and are sickened by the lack of action by law enforcements. Wired and CNet are reporting the case is being looked at again and hopefully some sort of law or civil suit will be pulled from the dust. CNN and Today have done reports on the story and now the attitude toward the Drew's is so vile that almost all of the neighborhood has shunned the Drews.

Law makers and enforcers have failed on 2 fronts. They have failed to protect an innocent teenage girl and in turn have created a mob mentality as people demand justice. And rightfully so.

"The problem, police and prosecutors say, is that technology is outpacing the law.

In some cases, said Jack Banas, St. Charles County prosecutor, the trouble is with evidence, and tracking the source of threatening Internet messages. "It may not be your neighbor who is sending it to you," Banas said. "It may be someone from another country."

In other cases, laws don't yet address online misconduct.

"It's a vast problem," he said.

And a national one.

In Florida, Jeff Johnston, 15, hanged himself by his book-bag strap in 2005 after three years of cyberspace bullying. His mother and principal had tried to stop the threats but couldn't.

In Vermont, Ryan Halligan, 13, hanged himself four years ago, after instant messages insulted and threatened him for months.

And here in O'Fallon this past April, a teen, now in college, got more than 500 sexually threatening and harassing messages through MySpace — the same social networking site Megan used to meet and talk to the fictitious Josh Evans.

Sometimes law enforcement can find ways to prosecute the bullies. But much more often, the indiscretion doesn't fall into an existing crime category." (source)

Vick Begins Jail Time For Dogfighting Early

NFL star Michael Vick (A.K.A Ron Mexico)turned himself in on Monday to begin serving his prison time for helping to run a dogfighting ring, a U.S. Marshal said, although he is not due to be sentenced until December 10.

Vick, one of the most famous players in the National Football League, pleaded guilty in August to charges that he and three other men took part in an illegal dogfighting enterprise known as "Bad Newz Kennels" at Michael Vick's home in Surry County, Virginia.
