AMC - All My Children Will Not Be Canceled

News was just released that All My Children will not be canceled.

Even more good news. A new head writer Lorraine Broderick has been named. Lorraine has worked in writing positions on soaps since 1979. She will be replacing David Kreizman and Donna Swjeski.

Well maybe the powers that be are listening. Many of us have voiced our opinions about needing better scripts for the soap stars and now we have it, at least on All My Children. Let's hope for the same result on OLTL.

For everyone who emailed and called Anne Sweeney to save the show, don't forget to thank her. A thank you can go a long way.

Tilikum The Killer Whale Is Back To Work At Sea World

Is Sea World really that greedy?

In February 2010 Tilikum killed trainer Dawn Brancheau. After this happened we found out it wasn't the first time Tilikum has killed. Tilikum had killed twice before that we know of; a homeless man who sneaked into his tank and another trainer.

Sea World says it has added new safety measures, and that the trainers will not be allowed to swim with Tilikum due to a series of violent events.  Really, three deaths a series of violent events. Call it was it is. These were deadly events. Three people are dead.

Grey's Anatomy The Musical

When I first heard there was going to be a musical Grey's Anatomy, I thought oh no! I don't really care for musicals, which is weird, because I love music.

So I say to self, self Shonda is an awesome writer I'll bet she can pull this off, and she did!

I knew last week as soon as Callie took off her seat belt there was going to be an accident. I hope no one dies I will be very upset.

All My Children AMC Today

** Spoiler Alert **
Don't read if you haven't watched today.

OMG How cruel to swap a baby on a blind woman.

I knew when Angie and Jessie went in the house, she was going to go into labor. I'm okay with that.

Now Brot just happens to park where a pregnant girl can put a black baby girl in his car. How convenient. I knew as soon as that happened, there was going to be a baby swap. Then Brot looks in the box, and doesn't see the baby, and feels the need to carry the box into the house where Jesse and Angie are. Did I miss something there? Maybe I should go back and watch again.

Unstoppable - The Movie

This movie is about a runaway unmanned train, carrying lethal chemicals.

It is what you would expect of a runaway train movie. The usual stop the train before it crashes and a lot of people die story line.

It stars Denzel Washington and Chris Pine. Kind of hard to go wrong with Denzel. Love him!

I gave this one a four star,  I love a good action flick.

Deadliest Catch 7 - 2011 - Hillstrands and Hansens Return

There is news here but I don't think any of it is real spoilers... so safe to read.

Some of you may have heard there was a legal dispute between Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand with The Discovery Channel, and they were not returning to the show.

Well here's the scoop. In October, 2010 it was reported that The Discovery Channel sued the Hillstrands for $3 million for failing to finish work on a spin off show called "Hillstranded".  The Hillstrands counter sued saying that the lawsuit would force them to sell their boat, so they quit the show. To show support of the Hillstrands, Sig Hansen also quit the show. Go Sig!

Smart Phone Users Putting Kids At Risk With Geotagging

If you have a smart phone and enable the GPS feature you could be putting your children, yourself or others at risk because of geotagging.

I'll try and put this in layman's terms for those of you who don't speak geek.

Geotagging = GPS location stored in your applications and photos. The GPS function on your phone can be a great feature, but it can also cause problems.

When you use these GPS enabled devices and take pictures, the pictures have stored in the picture file the GPS location you were at when the picture was taken. This is a great feature if your going through old photos and can't remember where you were when you took the picture.

Radiation - Radioactive Iodine ??

Think about this.

Too much radiation causes cancer, yet radiation is used to treat cancer.

Iodine is used to treat radiation exposure, yet people in Japan can't drink their water because of radioactive iodine in the water.

Is it me or is this a tad confusing?

The more I hear about this Fukushima Plant the more I think it's worse than people are letting on and there is less and less news on it everyday. But the news has reported the "important stuff" - Apple's Ipad 2 will likely be delayed. OH NO!

Charlie Sheen Found Dead - News Prediction

Charlie Sheen born Carlos Irwin Estevez (born September 3, 1965) was found dead this morning in a local hotel. A fantastic actor gone before his time.

The 45 year old actor, no longer able to find work, finally succumbed to his disease, because he refused to get help for his drug addiction and alcohol abuse. His belief that tiger blood would get him through anything proved to be no antidote at all.

Mr. Sheen was known for many films and TV Shows including: Platoon, Wall Street, Major League, Hot Shots!, Spin City and most recently Two and a Half men.

An autopsy is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon to confirm cause of death.

Mr. Sheen leaves behind five children, his father, mother, a brother and a sister weeping over his exploded body.
