Jon Gosselin Asks Kate To Forgive Him - VIDEO Clip

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 18:19:00 +0000

Jon and Kate Gosselin of the TLC reality show "Jon & Kate Plus 8" have both sat down for brand new interviews. Although Kate Gosselin's TLC interview did not really reveal any new facts, Jon Gosselin's interview was slightly interesting.

Jon Gosselin apologized to Kate for some of his behavior. But wouldn't it mean a whole lot more if he actually just apologized to Kate in person.

It seems this couple is more concerned with impressing the public through the media than actually working things out with one another.

Here's Jon Gosselin's most recent interview video clip with Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, you can see the video clip of Kate Gosselin's November 2, TLC interview here on WritersReviews.com.

"Women Only" Parking Spots - Video Clip

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 17:38:00 +0000

I just saw an interesting video clip on CNN.com about "women only" parking spots being created in Seoul, South Korea. Seems a little sexist right?

It sure doesn't look like the women of Seoul are too impressed with their new parking spots highlighted by a pink painted symbol.

I love the idea of parking spots for pregnant women or women with baby strollers, but just plain "women only" parking doesn't make much sense to me.

Check out this CNN News video clip to see what women in Seoul are saying about "women only" parking:

By now just about everybody has heard of "the balloon boy" story and seen the images on the news of the "balloon" a.k.a. "flying saucer" floating through the air. But what the heck did inventor Richard Heene actually use to make the balloon that's caused so much trouble for law enforcement agencies.

This CNN News video clip gives an exclusive look at the mysterious balloon which turns out to be made up of homemade materials like tinfoil and scotch tape.

Heene's To Be Charged In "Balloon Boy" Case

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 14:18:00 +0000

You know it's been a really slow week for news when one of the top stories on CNN News is about "the balloon boy" Falcon Heene.

The more information we learn about the "balloon boy incident," the more it seems like it could be a hoax. Authorities are now planning on pressing charges, and have conducted a search of the Heene family home.

Over the past few days it's been revealed that Falcon's father Richard Heene called a news station before calling police to report his son missing, and the public is finding the fact that six-year-old Falcon Heene has been sick (vomiting) on live television interviews all week rather strange as well. Why drag a sick kid to multiple television interviews? It seems as though the parents would do anything to get on TV.

Here's more on the pending charges and on the Heene story:

The Falcon Heene Story - Hoax or Truth?

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 16:09:00 +0000

I want to believe that the Heene family truly believed that their son "Falcon Heene" was in danger when they called 911 to report he had flown away in father Richard Heene's homemade "flying saucer" (a Mylar balloon). After all authorities used a large amount of resources while searching both the land and air in attempts to save "Falcon Heene."

But suspicions of the whole thing being a hoax began when six-year-old Falcon answered an interview question oddly. During a CNN "Larry King Live" interview Falcon was asked why he didn't come out of the attic when he heard people calling his name. Falcon answered "You guys said we did it for the show."

If you listen to the 911 call tape it sounds pretty legitimate. So personally I'm not sure what to believe.

Here's the "Larry King Live video clip" with the "Heene" family:

A New Cirque du Soleil Show - Banana Shpeel

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 19:47:00 +0000

One of my absolute favorite things in life is going to see a live show. I love to see plays, musicals, dance shows, magic shows, and even love spending a day at the circus. If you've ever seen a "Cirque du Soleil" performance you'll know that a "Cirque du Soleil" show combines music, drama, and dance together with circus acts to create unique and amazing shows.

I've never seen a "Cirque du Soleil" performance live but I have watched them on television and find them to be captivating. There's nothing better than losing yourself during a great performance.

"Cirque du Soleil" is introducing a brand new show that looks fantastic. It's called "Banana Shpeel" and it's a fun show featuring music, dance, drama, and comedy. You can check out the following "Banana Shpeel" preview video clip to get an idea of what the show is about:

One of the most interesting interactions of the "Banana Shpeel" plot is the relationship between the main character "Emmett" and the mysterious "Banana Man." I have a feeling that "Banana Man" will be the key to "Emmett" finding love with "Katie" and escaping the crazy world he's trapped in.

If you are interested in seeing the "Cirque du Soleil Banana Shpeel" show it will be running in New York and Chicago this winter. You can find out more about where to get tickets to the show by visiting the "Banana Shpeel" section of the "Cirque du Soleil" website.

Halloween Haunt At Canada's Wonderland

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 16:41:00 +0000

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my Canadian readers. Hope you're having a nice long weekend. Since now is the time to start getting ready for Halloween I thought I'd post some "Halloween Haunt" videos from Canada's Wonderland.

I've never been to the Halloween Haunt but from what I've heard it's awesome. Check out this cool "Halloween Haunt" trailer:

Here's a clip from Halloween Haunt "Clowns At Midnight," it looks terrifying!

Elvis' Hair Up For Auction - How Much Would You Pay For Elvis' Hair?

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 13:04:00 +0000

A rare "Elvis Presley" collection is being put up for auction, the memorabilia once belonged to the president of the Elvis Fan Club who is now deceased.

Among the collection are some of Elvis Presley's prescription pill bottles, a credit card, and a large clump of Elvis' hair. The hair comes from a haircut that Elvis received 51 years ago and is expected to sell for between $12,000 to $100,000.

I'm not sure what I would pay for Elvis Presley's hair but if I were a millionaire I'd bid on that credit card. Imagine walking around with Elvis' old credit card in your wallet, that would be cool.

My guess is that some die hard Elvis fan will pay a lot more than a $100,000 to own Elvis Presley's hair. Here's a CNN News video with more on the Elvis memorabilia auction:

NASA "Moon Bomb" VIDEO - Today Show Clip

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 14:11:00 +0000

Today NASA sent a 5000 pound rocket around the size of a school bus into the surface of the moon in order to search for water. Some worried that bombing the moon would somehow destroy the moon or negatively affect the earth, none of which happened.

Unfortunately there hasn't been much for us on earth to actually "see" but the rocket launch to the moon from a scientific standpoint was a success. The "Today Show" aired a live video feed of the NASA moon bomb and no change to the moon's surface was visible on the tape.

Check out the "Today Show" video clip to see (or not see) today's October 9, 2009 NASA moon bombing:

Teacup Pigs - Today Show Video Clip

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 00:08:00 +0000

"Teacup pigs" or "miniature pigs" have become a popular pet in Britain, and it's not hard to see why.

The cute and tiny pigs are only 14 inches tall and make a loving pet. You can even litter train them or take them outside like you would a dog. The miniature pig is not cheap though, it costs around $1,100 to purchase a "teacup pig." Miniature pigs also require a lot of attention and need to have a devoted owner.

I'm guessing that people who have teacup pigs for pets don't eat a lot of pork? After all, wouldn't it be like eating your pet?

Check out this Today Show video clip featuring information on "teacup pigs:"

President Obama Saturday Night Live Skit - VIDEO

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 15:07:00 +0000

"Saturday Night Live's," Saturday, October 3, 2009 comedy skit featuring "President Obama" is making news headlines this week. Many "SNL" viewers found the Obama comedy sketch to be funny, but Obama supporters aren't laughing, and were quick to point out the inaccuracies of the Saturday Night Live sketch.

I personally don't think that anybody should take any of the Saturday Night Live skits too seriously, after all it's just comedy show.

If you live in the United States you can view this and other SNL comedy sketch videos online at NBC.com. Unfortunately this leaves Canadians searching "You Tube" in the hopes of finding the Obama skit and other SNL videos.

Here's more on Saturday Night Live's most recent "Obama" comedy skit:

Zetaclear Product For Problem Nails

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 14:53:00 +0000

(Disclosure - I have received monetary compensation to share my opinion on Zetaclearreviews.org)

If you've ever suffered with unhealthy nails you know how painful and embarrassing it can be. I just heard of a product called zetaclear that is designed to be a natural remedy for those who have problems like thick, yellow toe or finger nails.

I've never tried Zetaclear but I might if I had this type of problem, I usually try out a few different products when something goes wrong before I make that doctor's appointment.

When it comes to nail health it's important to make sure there is no underlying medical condition causing problems so it wouldn't hurt to visit your doctor and get his/her opinion on what is causing discoloration in your nails.

David Letterman Apologizes To Wife Regina On Show - VIDEO

noreply@blogger.com (ChristyZ) — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 13:08:00 +0000

As if it isn't bad enough that "David Letterman" made a public confession of having sex with female staff members last week, he decided to make a public apology to his wife and co-workers on last night's Late Night show.

Maybe he should be home apologizing to his wife because the more he says (and jokes) about having sex with his staff the less funny the whole thing becomes.

After apologizing to his current "Late Night With David Letterman" show staff and to his wife "Regina Lasko" for all of the pain he has caused her, he talked about the importance of standing up to criminals.

Does he honestly think people will think he's a hero for standing up to the blackmailer? Sure, it's good that he stood up, but it doesn't lessen the fact that he's a big time cheater. His wife probably doesn't think he's too much of a hero these days, that's for sure.

Check out David Letterman's public apology to his wife and staff:
