Kate Gosselin Book Postponed

Jon and KateThe release of Jon & Kate Plus 8 star Kate Gosselin’s upcoming cookbook has been postponed by its publisher, according to Perez Hilton. Love is in the Mix: Making Meals into Memories was originally scheduled for release in November, but a new release date has not yet been set.

The publication is filled with recipes, organic eating tips, and “meaningful mealtime blessings,” and promises “an inside look at one of America’s most close-knit families.”

This is the third book Gosselin, who is currently in the midst of a very public divorce from husband Jon, has released with Christian publisher Zondervan. Her previous two works - Multiple Blessings: Surviving to Thriving with Twins and Sextuplets and Eight Little Faces - were both bestsellers.

Former Disney Star To Join ‘Gossip Girl’

“Lizzie McGuire” star Hillary Duff is set to join the cast of “Gossip Girl” for a multi-episode arc, according to EW.com.

According to reports, Duff will play Olivia Burk, a movie star enrolled in New York University to get the college experience. She ends up rooming with Vanessa (played by Jessica Szohr) at NYU, the same University attended by characters Blair (Leighton Meester) and Dan (Penn Badgley).

In December, Duff said to E! News she’d become a fan of the show, adding that her favourite character was Chuck Bass. “I don’t know why, because he’s so bad and terrible,” she said. “He is so sad that I feel bad for him,” she admitted.

Ultimate Ears ‘Triple Fi 10vi’ Ear Buds for iPhone

Noise Isolating Earphone Monitors - ‘Don’t leave home without ‘em

ultimate-ear-headphones2

The Triple Fi 10vi noise isolating earphone monitors, with voice capability, from Ultimate Ears (UE) are no ordinary pair of earbuds.  These are marvelous headphones that provide a totally satisfying listening experience, without the gimmicks and colored sound. The audio experience from the Triple Fi 10vi  is a smooth all around sound, absent of harsh overtones devoid of mushy bass. The Triple Fi 10vi, penetrating well into the ear canal, actually feel good and are comfortable to wear. The silicone material used for the fittings allows these headphones to feel as close to a ‘custom fit’ as possible, contributing greatly to what I discovered to be a quite satisfying listening experience. The fine sound quality, beyond initial expectations, was no doubt, due in part to having been accustomed to listening to music with the standard iPod earbuds. Be that as it may, this fact cannot steal the thunder from the UE Triple Fi 10vi’s excellence, as I immediately appreciated the rich audio quality as well as the custom fit of these pro level, isolating earphone monitors.

Game Review: Prototype

prototype-coverThis was one title I was excited for, for a while. Not because any of the press releases talking about its sandbox dealings and all the cool powers, but just because of the sheer bad-assery this game exudes. After popping Prototype in for my initial test drive, I got all giddy from the intro trailer alone! Dude jumps off a building, cuts people in half, survives an explosion, and more… in the first 30 seconds of the game!

So as those who have been following gaming news might guess, this game shares a few similarities to the recently released inFAMOUS, while I assume this to be poor timing, it is most unfortunate that everyone playing these two games will begin by comparing them directly. While some parts are uncanny copies, for example the introduction of inFAMOUS has Cole in the centre of a giant catastrophe, no one knows what happened or why and why this one guy is the sole survivor and has all these powers, but they think he’s a threat and is labelled the most dangerous terrorist in the United States. Ditto for Alex Mercer in Prototype. I think this is where the majority of similarities end.

Gamer’s Mind Blog: Infinite Ammo

Swords and Shields, or Cyborgs and Clones?solid-snake-art

When you’re walking down the aisle in the store, shopping for a new game, do you pick up Oblivion or Fallout? Are you looking to fly a dragon or a hovercraft, swing an axe into someone’s face or kneecap them with a laser pistol? This week our big question is… fantasy vs sci-fi?

I myself am not really sure which I prefer. I was at Games Day Toronto 2009, which showcases the tabletop wargame Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 (and also the MMORPG Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning), I find myself to be drawn to both equally. So to put my personal curiosity to rest, and hopefully provide some entertainment in the process, here’s my List of Why Sci-fi is Better than Fantasy (or vice versa). Enjoy! READ MORE…

Concert Promoter Plans Tribute Show For Michael Jackson

CEO of AEG Live Randy Phillips — the Los Angeles-based concert promoter of the now-canceled This is It London concert series that would be Michael Jackson’s last tour — told Sky News he would like to see a musical tribute to Jackson.

“This show was beyond anything, the technology, the size of the show,” Phillips said. “It was Michael Jackson. It was bigger than anything else could ever have been, it was beautiful and amazing, and he was amazing in it. [Concert director] Kenny [Ortega] and I have discussed this. At some point, the world needs to see this production. And I would imagine if we could do it, it would be done as a tribute, with the family, with the brothers performing and the sisters and other stars who loved Michael and were influenced by him.”

It has been reported that AEG has over 100 hours of footage from show rehearsals, including Jackson’s final run-through that was completed hours before his death.
