<description>Julian Assange on The Simpsons </description>


<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.colesmithey.com/.a/6a00d8341c2b7953ef0168e7a067db970c-pi" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Julian-Assange-the-simpsons" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00d8341c2b7953ef0168e7a067db970c" src="http://www.colesmithey.com/.a/6a00d8341c2b7953ef0168e7a067db970c-600wi" style="width: 585px; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" title="Julian-Assange-the-simpsons" /></a></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 17px; font-family: Arial;"> In the 500th episode, Homer and Marge Simpson will find out that neighbors of Springfield are holding secretive town meetings in an attempt to oust them from their community as punishment for all the troubles they have caused over the years. Once they learn the news, “the Simpsons go off the grid to this very rugged place where they meet [Julian Assange], who’s sort of their new Flanders. … He invites them over for a home movie and it’s an Afghan wedding being bombed.” </span></p><div class="feedflare">

<title>Jeremy Lin Documentary!</title>

<description>It's only a matter of time before some quick-thinking documentarian puts together a film about Jeremy Lin.</description>


<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.colesmithey.com/.a/6a00d8341c2b7953ef01676289524d970b-pi" style="display: inline;"><img alt="Lin on fire" class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00d8341c2b7953ef01676289524d970b" src="http://www.colesmithey.com/.a/6a00d8341c2b7953ef01676289524d970b-580wi" style="width: 575px;" title="Lin on fire" /></a><br /><br /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 17px; font-family: Arial;">It&#39;s only a matter of time before some quick-thinking documentarian puts together a film about Jeremy Lin. With at least 20 points and seven assists in five straight games, the Knicks are on fire—courtesy of Lin. Public curiosity is stoked about Lin, who by all accounts is a model player on and off the court. I&#39;d love to see Werner Herzog tackle making a film about Jeremy Lin. Either way, this is one sports documentary I&#39;d love to see. </span></p><div class="feedflare">

<description>Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn - DVD</description>


<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: Arial;"></span></strong><br /><span style="font-size: 16px; font-family: Arial;"> <a href=" http://www.tescoentertainment.com/store/dvd/the-twilight-saga--breaking-dawn--part-1/8:790377/">Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn - Part 1</a><em> </em><br /> </span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 17px; font-family: Arial;"> <a style="float: right;" href="http://www.colesmithey.com/.a/6a00d8341c2b7953ef0154374a3747970c-pi"><img class="asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00d8341c2b7953ef0154374a3747970c" style="width: 275px; margin: 0px 0px 5px 5px;" title="Breaking-dawn" src="http://www.colesmithey.com/.a/6a00d8341c2b7953ef0154374a3747970c-300wi" alt="Breaking-dawn" /></a>Author Stephenie Meyer keeps plugging those Mormon "teachable moments" in this dismal continuation of the soft soap melodrama series which, like its vampire hero, refuses to die. With the glow of the franchise considerably on the wane director Bill Condon performs mercenary by-the-book helming duties. Condon’s efforts do little to energize the material's "afterschool special" television trappings. No matter how ordained-by-marriage their union might be, human Bella and vampire Edward evidently have no business getting conjugal together. That's the overriding message that arrives when the sleep-inducing drama surrounding the lovers' big moment of pent-up sexual release finally comes around. In keeping with the franchise’s former installments the CGI werewolves still look like crap, and the romance is still oh so tortured even as the actors shed all resemblance to the teenage culture to which the films are pitched. In the context of America's continued puritanical obsession with sexual repression, the "Twilight" movies come across as so much Kool-aid propaganda. Now that Bella is giving birth to an evil spawn, she's bound to regret not using birth control on her wedding night. Psych. </span></p>

A wake for the singer, who died Sunday&#0160;in the bathtub of a Beverly Hilton hotel room due to still undisclosed causes, may be held Thursday, with a public funeral possibly planned for Friday at Newark, N.J.’s Prudential Center as well as a private service at the New Hope Baptist Church, where Houston sang as a young girl. Those plans have not been finalized, however. The jet that transported Houston’s remains was provided to the Houston family by&#0160;<strong>Tyler Perry</strong>, according to TMZ.&#0160;</p><div class="feedflare">
