July 25, 2011. MediaTakeOut.com has just received some EARTH SHATTERING NEWS . . . Jennifer Lopez and rapper/mogul Diddy are DATING AGAIN!!!
According to an EXTREMELY RELIABLE MediaTakeOut.com snitch, Diddy and Jennifer had all but BROKEN OFF communication when their relationship ended nearly a decade ago.
But, the insider claims, Jennifer REACHED OUT to Diddy late last year – when she realized her marriage to Marc Anthony was NOT WORKING.
The insider, who is CLOSE TO DIDDY, told MediaTakeOut.com, “[Diddy] was not expecting Jennifer to call him. They hadn’t spoken in years, and all of a sudden, she’s calling and texting.”
But it wasn’t just CALLING and TEXTING, our insider claim that on AT L
Sometimes it’s hard to be a man. Men are expected to be tough, protective, supportive, kill spiders and unscrew tight lids on jars. Too much of that can leave a guy feeling stressed, sometimes depressed and misunderstood.
These are huge responsibilities for anyone, especially for men who have historically been pressured into not showing emotion — or made to feel inadequate or burned out by the weight of the world. Fortunately, there are ways you can perk him up, get him out of his funk… and remind him that he’s still the man.
Here are some great gifts to get a guy when he’s down and out.
“I’m not really into technology” … said no man, ever. You don’t have to be a Bill Gates or Steve Jobs to appreciate how convenient and helpful the latest tech gadgets are. Smartphones and tablets, Bluetoot
When time allows, I bang the drums in a band called (R), and we recently recorded some live demos. Here’s a taster - as the titles suggest, the first one is about drinking, the second one a word of advice to the youth of today. Befitting of a band of middle-aged gits fighting a losing battle against ageing with guitar(...
Here we go, my customary end-of-year post… my favourite 10 albums of 2012. In no particular order:
Metz - METZ
Converge - All We Love We Leave Behind
The Men - Open Your Heart
Death Grips - The Money Store
Andrew Bird - Break It Yourself
Sauna Youth - Dreamlands
Unsane - Wreck
Rolo Tomassi - Astraea
Sharon Van Etten - Tramp
Swans - The Seer
I say “no particular order”, but it’s fair to say that METZ is my most favourite of them all. I’m getting close
From my readings this week:
- On what’s wrong with the twitter hashtag firstworldproblems: “Yes, Nigerians struggle with floods or infant mortality. But these same Nigerians also deal with mundane and seemingly luxurious hassles. Connectivity issues on your BlackBerry, cost of car repair, how to sync your iPad, what brand of noodles to buy: Third...
- On a writer’s unusual self-improvement journey: “My marriage was good, utterly central to my existence, yet in no other important aspect of my life was I so laissez-faire. Like most of my peers, I applied myself to school, friendship, work, health and, ad nauseam, raising my children. But in this critical area, marri...

Cowon's A3 is the brother of the Q5W -- an extremely capable portable media player, that even came with Wi-Fi and Windows CE 5.0. The A3, while very similar to the Q5W, is a very different player and costs a very different price: the 30GB A3 costs £250 instead of around £400 for the 40GB Q5W. But what's interesting is ...
With hard disk capacities of 30GB or 60GB -- costing around £320 -- plus a dual-core processing chip and support for high-definition video, the Cowon A3 has potential to be the most advanced handheld media system on the planet. We just had to explore to see if this South Korean behemoth was worth the hype and the money...

Sometimes history gets in the way of a good storyline. For instance, the tale being spun by Republican Rep. David Bates of Windham, sponsor of the bill that would repeal New Hampshire's same-sex marriage law.
Bates - who's a sponsor of one of the bills seeking to overturn the law - insists the majority is with him, despite polls conducted by the UNH Survey Center and others that show quite the opposite is true. (A Survey Center poll conducted at the end of January and early February found 62 percent of the 520 adults polled...

This is another dress I made for Kelli Jean Drinkwater, Haloween 2007, I think it was. It was commissioned by DJ and promoter Buster Bennett (Nuke Them All, YrMum&YaDad, Antisocial etc) for a Halloween party flyer. I'm not sure the flyer ever materialized, but Kelli Jean wore the skull dress for several parties and clu...

1. Ebenezer Scrooge, A Christmas Carol: Charles Dickens’ classic tale of greed and redemption is a holiday staple, and to the casual observer, the story’s main protagonist, Ebenezer may seem to be a one-dimensional, miserly villain, but he’s also the original bootstrapper! Cutting-costs by skimping on coal?? Working lo...

Did you know that the energy put out by a normal light bulb is equal to the energy put out by a laser beam? A laser has a very tight beam and is very strong and concentrated. A light bulb, on the other hand, releases light in many directions, so the light is comparably weak and diffuse. The difference between the two a...

Why didn't you say so...if a "mystic" says it then it must be true.
He doesn't believe anything is the word of God, does he? He doesn't believe in God. The mystic says the word of God can be found in nature, if one were perceptive enough to discern it.
I think I'll pass on that flavor.

Ki Tavo(Deuteronomy 26:1-29:8)
"Wealth brings anxiety, but wisdom brings peace of mind."
-- Rabbi Ibn Gevirol
"Hi. I'm a doctor, what are you?"
"I'm a lawyer, what are you?"
"I'm a chocolate chip cookie eater, what are you?"
In truth, I am anything but a lawyer or a doctor. I don't even want to be thought of as one. I am an individual. I'm me!
There is no other person in the world like you. In fact it's virtually impossible to put into words who you are. Words already make a comparison. There are no words to describe your unique type of kindness, friendship or love.
If you introduce yourself to other people as a "lawyer," then you take what is unique to you and disregard it. It is dangerous to define yourself as something you do from 9-to-5 (or any other time of the day). To think of yours
