Is it going to be great? Or Lame…? You decide!

The news broke this morning that Mel Gibson and his long-estranged wife, Robyn Moore have concluded their divorce arrangements. Despite having never written, appeared in or been obliged to learn even a single line from any of his 43 films the former Mrs. Gibson now stands to collect around $425-million to complete the decree.

Her collective gender have spent four entire decades tirelessly proclaiming their desire and innate ability to earn an income themselves, and the same time ensuring such laws as Ms. Moore has now used are protected and left firmly in place so they are free to leech money from men and avoid the slightest need to do any such thing.

One of these acions is bullshit. It’s time our compatriots decided which.

SNL derides latest Kim Kardashian stunt

Since the days of Galileo man has gazed into the heavens, vainly endeavoring to find the secret of life or at least get a clue why we’re here. The great man himself used a telescope to assist in his search but there’s no firm proof he ever found that elusive secret.

Today, telescopes are exponentially stronger and instruments like the Hubble have uncovered clues to the origins of the universe that will keep scientists enthralled for ten years, if not longer.

If you ever ponder the great questions of human life you could take a lesson from the brains at NASA. Modern equipment like refractor telescopes can bring the most distant stars so comparatively close you’ll feel you could touch them. All you need is a clear night and the desire to explore.

If you feel suitably inspired the heavens await you – Find a quiet spot, pack a thermos of coffee, look up and enjoy…

A hundred billion clues but no answer

The widespread popularity of shows like Grey’s Anatomy and ER has inspired many people to pursue careers in the medical field. Those who master the challenging task and make the grade then get the rare chance to spend their days swathed in scrubs, saving and improving the lives of others. Which is not a bad job.

Of course, scrubs are not the only choice of couture for those rare yet altruistic souls who choose to pursue such a noble profession. Firms like Blue Sky Scrubs produce a well tailored range of nursing uniforms suited for women that are both functional and easy to maintain so you always keep your mind on the job.

Should you find yourself drawn to the concept of a career salving the pains and misfortunes of your fellow man the need and opportunity for such endeavor has never been more acute. Consider your options and talk to your loved ones. If you’re both suited and sure your future is on course to reward you to a depth you can currently barely conceive…

A career in ER can bring endless rewards

The stresses of fame can affect people in some unwelcome ways; One example is the recent case of Toby Maguire, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck and some friends being suspected of engaging in illegal poker games.

What these three reputable gentlemen appear to have missed is news regarding the option to play free poker tournaments online and in relevant safety.

Since its inception in the far off, misty days of the mid-1800‘s poker has attracted tens of thousands fans of all ages in every major nation. Playing online has since become a hugely popular sport and now is your chance to share that excitement without the need for a movie mogul’s bankroll.

Share the thrill of celebrity-style poker for free

This has to be among the most uplifting, unique and original enactments of combined creativity in the history of New York at least.

On July 26th, 3,500 total strangers gathered in Nelson Rockefeller Park at dusk and created a colorful tableau of pure, harmless fun and magic with just some music players, cameras, glow sticks and flashlights.

As you might guess the whole event was the brainchild of the creative iconoclasts at ‘Improv Everywhere.‘ If those guys could just move to Hollywood we might finally see an original movie instead of endless reboots and remakes.

Watch the video. If you’re unmoved by the collective joy so obvious among this flawless canopy of spirited volunteers you either run a Hollywood studio or you might need to check for a pulse…

‘Improv Everywhere’ lights up New York

Jim Meskimen has been the voice-double of more famous people in movies, TV shows and video games than you could easily count, and now he’s stepping out of the shadows to take a well-earned bow.

This is Jim reciting Clarence’s speech from Richard III – in no less than 25 different voices. Personally I think the man is too talented to even stand still but what’s your review?

Shakespeare gets the star treatment from Jim Meskimen

The entertainment world is rather liberally stocked with people who will eagerly tell you they’re unfeasibly talented, so it makes a very welcome change to find a group by whom such claims have been viably earned. One of these rare cases is Studio Center.

Formed in 1966 the firm specializes in what, thanks to the unbounded triumph of movies by firms like Pixar is fast becoming a major sector of today’s creative landscape – voice actors.

And their gift for enhancing such a project’s success is also easy to see – Having already helped clients gather some impressive awards, including Clios, Silver Microphones and even a Grammy the firm’s burgeoning international profile now supports 700 employees across 23 countries, creating over 10,000 new media production projects a year.

And that’s no small feat.

Almost any creative production from movie trailers to a full-scale video production can rise or fall on the merits of those whose talents are heard but not seen. If you have an outline for such a project yourself it’s clear you’d be following a solid tradition if you gave Studio Center a call…
