3.) Don’t be afraid of color! It’s all about being uplifted through self-expression!

2.) Be true to your self! Don't put to much stock into trends. They're called "trends" because they're destined to change! Be true to your own personal style and try incorporating trendy pieces in, but never sell out totally!

FATHER'S DAY THOUGHTS
"In terms of my thoughts on fathers day I applaud all of the "Daddy's" who don't just hand over a pay check, or money, but who actually take part in their children's life and offer unconditional love and support no matter what. Those are the father's to be celebrated!"

FATHER DAY STORY ABOUT RON F.

2010-06-05T05:46:00.000-07:00

Ron F just sold his first spec script! Here is how I first met him. Happy Fathers' Day Ron!

Location: 3925 Riverton Avenue, Studio City, CA.

STORY:

I watched a handsome, young man, from above my apartment in Los Angeles many years ago. His nose was stuck in a book. The book was about acting and he cared and poured himself in the joy and rage of Los Angeles.

Now, he is mere days away from becoming a father and I can't think of anyone who would do it best.

Joy. Patience. Creative intent. Insecurity and fear (I suspect) he faces only when the sun is rising or with the waxing moon. They know his cries. .

I see a man who is about to become a great father and I know ---that is beyond fine.

DETAILS:
rjfallica@yahoo.com; location - Los Angeles and heart planted in New York City.

Job: actor-writer, a good husband who is now becoming better. A father to be . A loyal friend. circa 2010

GAVIN & STACEY
The BBC’s GAVIN & STACEY is one of the best comedies to jump across the pond and now you can get it on DVD/Blue Ray.
However there is drama about the comedy. The BBC released the new series before it has finished its TV run, critics said.
The broadcaster has created a 'pay window' for people wanting to see the episodes first, commercial rivals and MPs added.
This puppy snagged two BAFTAs, four British Comedy Awards, and a yadacity wagon of rave reviews to its name, Gavin & Stacey is a must see!

The Los Angeles Times said "Gavin & Stacey is a gem of a show - funny, touching and welcome proof that the romantic comedy can and will survive irony, Botox, Judd Apatow and all the vagaries of the modern age"

The New York Times called it "the most endearing comedy about love to come to television since the Manolos were packed up and put away."

Article:
Yadacity and yadacity rainbokw asked me to write this article I did not know how to start as my main focus has been helping corporations but not private individuals. If we see ourselves as corporation or entities and treat our finances very seriously I think we can achieve good results, just as corporations do. I am just going to remind you very basic tips that you already know that will help your finances:

- Your housing or rental expenses should not be higher than 30% of your monthly income. That means, if you make $ 3,000 after taxes, you should not spend more than $ 1,000 a month in rent or mortgage and property management fees. This is a rule of thumb.

- Set aside a monthly savings budget even if it is only $ 25 or $ 50 a month. I would try to make it at least $ 100 a moth, depending on your budget.

- Most of Americans are on debt, control you debt, and don’t allow your debt to control you. My suggestion would be not to pay more than 10 % of your monthly income in non secured debt like credit cards or other loans. That means that you should not increase your credit card balances to a level that you can not afford.
- Live within your means, don’t try to purchase things that you can not afford, be happy with what you have and be grateful about it.

- In these financial times we must live within our means, pay off debt and increase savings is a “must”. If we take care of these primary things then we can have some discretionary spending.

- Treat yourself out once a week or once a month with something that you like within your budget. This is not necessarily buying something. This can be a walk in the park or eating ice cream with a friend. Reward yourself when you get good results.

- Thank God every day for all the blessings he gives you, even if you are going through a difficult situation, things will improve, it is the normal flow of life.

- Finally help somebody in need if you can and also help him or her how to catch a fish on their own. This is good Karma and when we help other people the Universe helps us too. Of course it must be done in a responsible way, we also need to help others how they can achieve their goals by themselves.

Thanks to all of you, I hope this was helpful to you guys and girls, love, lui.

Lui Attanasi is the complete package!

A NEW SOUL

2010-05-21T13:25:00.000-07:00

Pregnancy sparks Rumors!

Who cares! There is a new soul in the world.

Yadacity says welcome back. Oh, the rumor is that John Travolta (a.k.a. can fly a plane) and Kelly Preston continue to enjoy the brilliant news that they are expecting a child—again--together,.

So some say that Travolta faith in Scientology may have caused them to want another child due to the passing of their lovely teenage son Jett (bless the soul) last year.

Note, while one former Scientologist is making these claims, other current and past Church members are coming out against the rumors. In the end rumors mean nothing but a new soul, wow, now that is time to celebrate.

Welcome back.

Country Music Star struts out of the closet -----

2010-05-19T14:23:00.001-07:00

Chely Wright, the country singer took the stage and explained, to the world, that she was born a Lesbian. Born a lesbian and owned it with a radiant smile and security in knowing yourself.

On the O show she described the feeling, of coming out, as this: “.. I feel like I am two years old, this is who GOD made me.”

Her father, some might say would fit the uniform of a ‘good ole’ boy’ talked about what Unconditional Love Means (you go papa Wright, you go boy) and said to other families that have gay children who struggle in the closet and live a life on the closet and who just want to be honest---he said this “do not close the door. Open the heart.:

Sexy Ms. Wright’s has a book entitled LIKE ME and a new single from her album called LIFTED OFF THE GROUND.
Yadacity rainbow salutes you.
Oh, our bad, Chely Wright will make her first big splash as lesbian star by performing at the The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) Media Awards in San Francisco, California, circa 2010.   The "Single White Female" singer will join Sam Sparro and "Precious: Based on the Novel PUSH by Sapphire" director Lee Daniels.

THE L WORD AND JENNIFER B.

2010-05-19T10:43:00.000-07:00

Any soul who loves a good story knows about the LWORD – if not—get on the band wagon. Great writing. Great character development. Great and worth buying the entire series.

Jennifer B is a woman that first caught our attention as she danced into pop-film culture and then she went to school to sharpen her mind and then –with JB swerve stepped into Showtimes’s groundbreaking series THE L WORD.

On the flip side, she kept a photographic journal of the cast and crew during her time on the show.
She stated: “It was an era of my life I was eager to preserve: I wanted to remember the cast, the readthrus, the dinners, the rehearsals — everything. I took pictures and saved my scripts, callsheets, and memos and organized them every year. I used them for reference as the seasons moved on, but frankly I held onto them because I knew I would get a kick out of looking at them as the years passed. Mostly, I wanted to remember the joy, because no matter where the storylines went, we always managed to have fun."

She is involved with the I Live Here, a Project of Operation USA and The Pablove Foundation, among others “because,” she stated, “ I wanted to give back to the organizations that have meant so much to me."

King Knows Music circa 2010 and bydond!

2010-05-15T15:39:00.001-07:00

Here is what we know at yadacity --we know nothing anything. When you work from that point of view, every new truth is a lesson worth experiencing.

So, let's start. This man is giving point of view, combined with experience and we dare to step to say a love, a gentle care for the artist.

Check it: "Making Dollars and Sense Out of the New Music Business, this event will be held in Beverly Hills, CA - On Saturday, June 19 from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm,.

A musical master mind, Mr. King will present industry newbies with a roadmap for success with a new workshop entitled, "Making Dollars and Sense out of the New Music Business."

The recording legend and creative force behind such ground breaking groups as the Timex Social Club and Club Nouveau, King has steadily redefined himself as the author of reinvention when it comes to the music game.

"Making Dollars and Sense Out of the New Music Business" will be held at the Tanzore Restaurant and Lounge located at 50 N. LaCienega Blvd. in Beverly Hills.

"Making Dollars and Sense out of the New Music Business" is King's personal take on the new state of the music industry in today's digital age. The one day seminar, slated to tour several cities, will tackle issues pertinent to newcomers in the music business, including finding out new, inexpensive and free techniques for marketing, promoting and selling your music; learning how to build an effective team to help navigate a new music business model; and learning to maximize your budget and utilize online community sites for exposure and sales.

King has long been credited with creating a new chapter in music history by independently producing, pressing, marketing and promoting the biggest selling 12-inch single in history, "Rumors" by the Timex Social Club.

With a debut solo release, "Open Book," his own Blogtalk radio show at www.BlogTalkRadio.com/Jay-King, and a live online concert and interview series at http://www.KulaksWoodshed.com, King is not one to rest on his multi-platinum laurels.

Kimg: "Today's musical landscape is just a logical outgrowth of where the business has been going during the last decade or so. Artists, young and old, must know how to successfully navigate these changes as expansive opportunities. Today's artist has the means to create his own sound, cultivate his own fan base, and sell his music, all from his computer in many instances. There are no rules etched in stone, but there are valuable tips and advice which everyone can benefit from," express King.

God gave you the gift - learn to protect the pearls.

Scott McCullough - A Director to Watch -

2010-05-13T08:40:00.000-07:00

An exclusive Q&A with director, S C O T T M C C U L L O U G H (Scott McCullough)
(www.SCOTTMCCULLOUGH.com)

Q: It's Spring and Summer is coming! Are you swimsuit ready?

A: It's always a battle right? My calves are there I think.

Q: MizzNina feat. Colby O'Donis "What You Waiting For," is your newest music video that you directed. Colby hit it, vocally with Lady Gaga ---what is the funniest thing that Colby did while shooting?

A: Apparently Colby always "acquires" something (prop, instrument) from every shoot, but I have no idea whats missing. I expect a call someday.

Colby was absolutely great. He was professional and on point with giving his all. He loves to sing acapella (mostly current tunes) while waiting for set ups and he's very good. I certainly loves Michael Jackson and you can see some inspiration on camera...he can hit some moves. It was our first time working together and I hope for more.

MizzNina was amazing and wonderful! She really got into it and was a champ. I think they both had fun a lot, except for the long hours which are known for in videos. This will be a great hit for her and with her talent, she'll do great. She is such a sweetheart! The hardest part with her was everything looked great on her!

They were a blast together and Treasure Entertainment (the producers) always kept it tight.

I did 25 Prince videos (Sexy MF, Gett Off/home video, Diamonds and Pearls Tour films/videos) and the wardrobe source for conversation was richer with him...I mean who can rock a do-rag better than Prince? I certainly can't do that or the speedo-suspender combo.

Q: Mirror, mirror on the wall -- who would be blowing up your phone this week to say "yes," to your project---which is (details, please)?

A: I expect more music videos, I would love to work with Rhianna, Dave Matthews, Prince (again) and anything Black Eyed Peas. I do mostly car commercials (out of Square Planet, LA) and love the fashion, action, sexiness and appeal of this shooting.

Q: Who is your favorite director of photograpjy and why?

A: Robert Richardson. Mainly because of his ability to go beyond convention. He has lit many important films and worked along side many respected directors. also, Matthew Rolston, the late, great Herb Ritts (I do still work). Stylistically, there are so many, but I am a fan of Tony Scott's style and approach to production design, editors - teaming them with a great DP (he uses different ones).Film making is always evolving and audiences are very savvy.

Connect children, connect and follow this talented soul.

GAY FOLKS ARE TAKING TO THE STREETS

2010-05-05T13:43:00.000-07:00

Religion and the closet. Here we go, again!

Rumor alert. We heard (but can not confirm) that LOGO "might" be interested in doing a quick MOW on the life of anti-gay crusader George Alan Rekers.

Possible Title. "He took my luggage out of my closet."

The background.....
The list of anti-gay crusaders who have been entangled in alleged gay romps has added George Alan Rekers, a Baptist minister who co-founded the Family Research Council.

According to the Miami New Times (reported this week ) that Rekers was at the Miami International Airport with a handsome, young, male escort, fresh from a 10-day trip to Europe.

Wait for it, the Baptist minister admitted that he found his companion on Rentboy.com (not safe for work), where the escort had advertised his attributes (including sexual details). Rekers, the anti-gay crusader and Baptist minister, maintains that he's not gay and had merely hired the escort to help him carry his luggage.

Carry his luggage. What luggage was he carrying George Alan Rekers? Curious minds would like to know …. How big is your luggage?

Q:: So, the word is that 13th Street, in Philly is the gayest place on the earth, just next to Disney. Question: Where do you hang and why?

A: 13th street & Disney run a close race, but I'm still the most magical place on earth lol! I don't get to go out much but when I do I enjoy Q-Lounge on 13th & Locust. Its a very nice spot and they've been wonderful to and even hosted my tours opening night after party.

Q: Have you met Janet Jackson, if so, what did you say? I not, what will you say,?

A: I haven't been privileged to meet her yet but I'd thank her for helping me to find the courage to be my self and share it with world through my music. I adore her.

Q: Where were you when you heard, June 25th, 2009, when @ 5:15 PM when you heard that the king of pop had passed over?

A: I was in my living room and received a million calls from friends telling me he had passed and I was in total disbelief. All I kept telling everyone was "I won't believe it until CNN confirms it" and when they did confirm it my heart sank. It was truly the day the music died.

Q: Mothers' day is coming up. Most of our staff have lost their mothers but they are in our hearts. What would you say to your mom and we will send that yadacity blessing all over the universe.

A: I could never have made it through the past 25 years without her. She's my rock, my voice of reason, my biggest fan, and the best friend I'll ever have. She's the person who taught me how to love and that has loved me unconditionally even when I didn't make it easy. She is my heart. So to her I say thank you and I love you with all my heart. Happy Mothers Day Mom.

Don't forget, Tony E will be at pride, New York City, on June 27.

Bawarchi Indian Kitchen

In Culver City, in Los Angeles, near the beach and across from Columbia-Sony Pictures is a place that just made the yadacity staff laugh and our tummies (all sizes) smile.

It’s in a modest strip joint and next to another Indian restaurant that serves meat and heat.

Bawarchi Indian Kitchen serves only veggies and heat if you need it., heat if you want it.

It was almost empty on Saturday evening but a nice man, with a beard suggested that I order, now, because of the coming crowd.

Suddenly, the strip mall was a mass of “expensive” cars trying to find parking space starving people were dreaming about what was about to be put on their plate.

Yadacity says yes on Bawarchi Indian Kitchen.

Our team still has left overs and I, for one, am I still dreaming about the lotus roots in curry. And wondering, what the “tofu meat dishes,” can do to our world. I am thinking “fake chicken.”

Yadacity recap: It’s cost effective for Such a good meal that two (or three) can enjoy their “value.’

Here is the added bonus….. 99% of the crowd are from India or from an Indian family.

Yum.

310. 836. 8525 – tell them that yadacity sent you.

TONY ENOS rocks

2010-05-03T16:03:00.000-07:00

Tony Enos is the one to watch. Keep your lush eyes open, keep it open --- this young soul has something to say and he can keep a tune

Backgroud? Goggle blut here you go: He is a torrid mix of pop---Tony, hip hop, and dance beats, the former choreographer turned performer can captivate a crowd with the best of them.

Tony, is heavily influenced by Janet Jackson, Prince and Michael Jackson, his musical offerings serve up a heat laced collection of originals that are sure to make you move some part of your body.

Pride is coming to New York City, in June and you sold just let it go and love Tony!

BRIAN J. PATTERSON knows something about Pushing

2010-04-13T10:15:00.000-07:00

Here is our Q&A with Brian J. Patterson
www.brianjpatterson.com

His new project is PUSHING BOUNDARIES a pilot that harkens back to the days of TALES OF THE CITY, but gives it a new, updated, and fresh approach. It follows the lives of people living in San Francisco. Brian plays a character that, well, conflicted. ;)

A yadacity exclusive
Q&A with Brian J. Patterson -
Q: Why do you love your work?
A: I love my work because I feel like I get to be a perpetual child playing in a sandbox with my friends. We're constantly collaborating to create new & beautiful pieces of art. Work actually feels like play, but does not negate for me how powerful it can be. I just have to be careful. Sometimes I get a little overzealous. I mean, hey...there's only so much sand we have to work with here, right?

Q: If you had five minutes to talk to anyone in your field, who would it be and what would be "that question," and what would you wear!

A:
It would be Meryl Streep & Gary Oldman. For clothes, I'd probably be wearing what I'm most comfortable in and wear every day...jeans and tee. I'm pretty much who I am wherever I go, so I’m not about to change that, I don't care who you are. I'd initiate with one of my famous rhetorical questions, "you know you're both f**kin killin me, right?" And, then I'd use the rest of the five minutes to ask them out to dinner so I could REALLY talk with them, And then I'd ask...no, I'd tell them both, "okay, all the secrets...spill it!

Q: Three cities, in the world, and where would you like to screen your first film and where would you like to stay?
A: London - so I could stay with my friend JennyLA - because I could stay with friends and can visit with a lot of my friends. SF - because I could stay at home, I prefer chilling with friends rather than staying in hotels. Hotels are fun, but there's no place like home.

Q; what is your next project?
A: I'll be in a musical entitled BOYS WILL BE BOYS. It's playing at New Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco May-June. I'm really excited because I get to work with some award nominated talent that I have worked with in the past. We just began rehearsals yesterday.

You can get tickets at www.nctcsf.org.

Eduardo and Ricky?

2010-04-13T09:31:00.000-07:00

Buzz on the Latino line is who did Ricky Martin (now out) have in his warm, sexy bed?

Some are buzzing that Eduardo Verastegui (“Bella”) as one that he held close and dear.

I know Eduardo. He is one of the kindest people I have every met.

Forgot his looks that is nothing. Nothing compared to his loyalty, passion and determination to do good and correct “wrongs.”

He is beautiful but inside out …..

Ricky M., glad you are out! Question, brother will you do an exclusive Q&A for yadacity?

Yadacity and yadacity rainbow sends you love and kisses. Enjoy every moment of this life.

UGLY BETTY and ABC are going.....

2010-04-08T15:46:00.000-07:00

UGLY BETTY, based on the international sensation” Betty La Flea,” is coming to it’s U.S. end, on ABC with a classy bang.

This journey for the character Betty was, for me, life changing. Seriously. When my mother had her stroke and was found “non responsive and then moved to “intensive care,” also known as “any moment now,” I watched UGLY BETTY( on abc.com) over and over again.

This happened the night before Thanksgiving. My father passed on Halloween (a Gemini and I think it was a good date). Pre=thanksgiving has many layers to my story. Layer one, this is the only day that my mother, who had no -ability to cook was transported over night. She became a master in the kitchen. How? I do not know. Why, I might have an idea. But the: how,” is something even Penn and Teller could not figure out.

The turkey, perfect; succulent, a single cut and juices flowed like a waterfall, over the oyster dressing and roasted vegetables. How, I do not know?

The smell of the yams roasting in the heat. The aroma of the rich-rich-rich gravy that stood shoulder- to -shoulder with exotic lettuce, ripe tomoatoes, crimson onions and fresh ground pepper. These images, I will never forget. Yet, I still do not know how?

Did I mention the cheeses (mostly from Germany and France) displayed on a silver tray. Along the side in an oval dish, sausages and pickles.

And then there was more. There was always more. Broiled turnips, steamed veggies with lemon, sage, sea-salt and thyme.

And then there was more.

Roasted peppers from sweet to hot. Grilled onions, almost so filled they were going to fall lout of the pots. Roasted garlic. Olives in other silver trays.

And then there was more.

Fresh, homemade cranberry sauce just this side of sweet and just this side of spice.

MAC& CHEESE (NO WORDS) just smack your lips and remember the first time such a simple meal made you feel so good!

And there, there was more.

Home made corn bread and on the side ---butter! Home made biscuits with butter and honey on the side.!

Butter ruled that day. Ho sauce, oh come on now, that should be understood … what would a sweet life be without a touch of heat.

363 days y mother could, could not do this. 363 days, t was not possible and then the clocked turn and that day---her hands did not belong to her.

How? I do not know. Why? I think because she loved us. I think.

And in the end …. a sweet potatoes pie with crème cheese. Not just any pie. That pie.

I am convinced (and you can never change my mind) that sweet potatoes fairies came down and guided my mother’s hands. 363 days the ability was not there but on Thanksgiving (and maybe a few hours on Thanksgiving eve) she roasted into forever, in that day, she was legend.

HANGAR 3 PRODUCTIONS has no skeltons in the ......

2010-04-06T13:20:00.000-07:00

Q&A with Brian Jones of HANGAR 3 PRODUCTIONS.

Get up to speed children, "HANGAR 3 PRODUCTIONS,” is a full service production company based in Los Angeles, California.

The company was founded by Ken Turner and Brian Jones (in the fall of 2009) right around the time a high quality short film entitled “Country Time With Papa” was filmed in beautiful Santa Barbara. “There’s something magical happening” was one of many quotes used to describe the dynamic on and around the film.

Yadacity and yadacity rainbow exclusive scoop: UP & COMING PROJECTS…

"JOHN DELANEY DIED LAST NIGHT":
Mid-life goes horribly wrong for an intelligent, yet hapless alcoholic found dead in the gutter of a rain-soaked Chicago street. His passing is marked by “friends” anxious to move on.

In the days of rising unemployment, scarcity of credit, a fragile stock market, empty real estate on every corner, and houses foreclosing many of us are one moment away from a version of poverty. Life is not good, or fair at times and for John Delaney, one wrong turn and all the turns after that were wrong.

Finding comfort only at the bottom of a whiskey bottle he accepts his new calling as a lonely drunk.
We are all going to die, one way or another.

It’s the one unavoidable event this “life” has given us. In “John Delaney Died last Night”, Cannes Festival Award winning writer Sherry McGuinn asks: Will he be missed?

Will old friends care? Will Delaney’s eight siblings even find out since they all turned their backs on him years ago? Do we care?

Is humanity so immune to homelessness even though we ourselves, whom could be a moment away from it, prove that “people just ain’t any good”? It could take just one wrong turn to find our answer…
What will tomorrow bring for you?

Yadacity Q&A with Brian Jones

Q:. The morning before the Indie Spirit Awards (circa 2012) are released, your "breakfast in bed would be," and it would be served by "who?"

A: Hmm. I think that I would probably have my typical breakfast the morning of the Indie Spirit Awards release of EIGHT slices of white bread toasted with butter and STRAWBERRY jam!

I love that stuff! Sometimes I like eggs on buttered toast, too.

That day would definitely be STRAWBERRY though.

I would prefer to have it served by.... The girl who made me smile. She knows who she is...

Q: So, they announce the name of your film. Which color "word" would you use to express your joy?
A: I would go with a vibrant GREEN! It's just a cheerful color to me.

Q: Spring is here. Summer is coming. Any Spring-summer resolutions?

A: Summer resolutions. That's a good one. I will have to go with getting our film "in the can" and submitted to some festivals!

I would also like to take my brothers on a trip. Just the three of us for a little relaxation.

It's been a while since we've been able to spend a few days together. I might even get a "tat" to to commemorate it! Most likely go with the fraternity letters. Family is everything after all!

That is a yadacity Q&A wrap because “family is everything after all!”

TYLER PERRY kicks "ass" and "takes" names, again....

2010-04-06T07:34:00.001-07:00

Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married Too?

This new film, by the powerhouse that is Perry, is backed by the lion that roars (Lion’s Gate) and “the” producer with vision (a.k.a. the panther) that observes, in regal patience, and sees beyond the canopy of stars. That is Reuben Cannon.

The box-office can not lie; it just counts cash and Tyler Perry's Why Did I Get Married Too,” as always is making major jingle.

Why?

Why is Perry so successful? I get this question asked so many times that if I had half-a-penny, well, I would be walking Ms. O’s kids…

Here it is. Wait. Perry is successful because he is honest to the voice of people who do not have (or feel) that they have a voice.

You should see this film. You must see this film. The truth is hard but at least we get many laughs!

TYLER PERRY kicks "ass" and "takes" names, again....

NEW and WORTH A VISIT
NBC's PARENTHOOD

This new series suffers from a disease, in Hollywood, that is usually fatal. The symptoms are consistent. It’s well written. Beautifully cast. It’s pacing, editing and visuals motitavate you to watch. Now, here is the worse system of them all, it’s well written.
Special shot out to production designer Steve Jordan and costume designer Laura Goldsmith.

MODEL.LIVE
Model.live is executive produced by I.M.G. entertainment Tom Florio and Russell Quy. It’s directed by Danel Schwacher with the director of photography being handled by Theo Stanley.

Are you ready? I hope so. This reality series follows the real developing modeling careers (under the expert tutelage of IMG) of Cato (19 from The Neverlands), Madeline (20, from Australia) and Austria (15 from The Dominican Republic).

You know the old saying, beauty hurts. Wow but at least they suffer in Prada and fly to London, Paris and Milan on any given day!

At the Museum of Tolerance (MOT) another section of giving HOLLYWOOD sponsored OUT OF SILENCE: readings from the Afghan Women’s Writing Project.

Please note, it was to celebrate International Women’s Day, which in our humble yadacity opinion is really every day.

A yadacity shout out to the event producers Deborah Calla, Steak House, Juli Vizza with special recogition Ellen Huang, Ray Bradford and Ruby Lopez.

The evening was conceived and directed by Frederick Ponzlov and executive produced by Jeff Lyons and Jim Steers.

The brilliant souls reading the words of the brilliant souls were Summer Bishil, Nadia Bjorlin, Conchata Ferrell, Jodi Log, Nichelle Nichols, Teal Sherer, Bahar Soomekh, Marcia Wallace.

Ms. Jennifer Beals did not attend because of “very last minute” conflicts.” Taking her place was Nancy Travis, a member of the National Board Member of SAG and a member of AFTRA.

The readings were powerful, awkward, funny, and inspiring.

In the car, my pal asked me what I got from the evening. She wanted to know which story had the most impact.

I choose the story about the father who is still, the teacher.

Sandra Bullock, we send our love!

2010-03-18T11:40:00.000-07:00

Dear Sandra,

We hope the tabloids are wrong. If they are not – sister-our-sister you have your prayers. Some people forgot or others may not remember or care to recall what it feels like to have their heart “broken,” but we do.

If you only knew the state I am in while typing on these keys, the words would have more meaning. Go silent. Go still. There are two hugs that can bring you back from the edge; to bring you home. Most know the first but you will be surprised on the second.

When London calls, please answer.

David Oyelowo is a Yadacity tip

2010-03-18T11:36:00.000-07:00

YADACITY IS CALLING ACTOR David Oyelowo

Award winning director Lee Daniels with five films under his belt and counting
is well on his way to becoming legend.

Yadacity note, he's the first African American to be nominated for a Director's Guild Award. He is the second to receive an Academy Award nomination for directing.

His new project SELMA, according to The Hollywood Reporter, has found the perfect actor to play Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.. It’s actor David Oyelowo from the U.K.

Also on board is Hugh Jackman playing a racist sheriff

As much as we know, the film revolves around the historic marches staged by King in 1965 in Selma, Alabama. The part of Alabama Governor George Wallace remains up for grabs.

Oyelowo, who was last seen opposite Jill Scott in HBO's series 'The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency,' was also in the TV version of 'A Raisin in the Sun' with Sean Combs and Sanaa Lathan.

This brother is on a role; you can see his dazzle playing Muddy Waters in 'Who Do You Love?' and stars in George Lucas' 'Red Tails' with Terrence Howard and Cuba Gooding Jr.

FALLING MODEL is NOT FUNNY

2010-03-18T11:34:00.000-07:00

Alexandra Falls Twice on 'America's Next Top Model' (VIDEO)

On ABC’s THE VIEW today, the brilliant Barbara Walters summed up what the yadacity staff feels, strongly. It is not funny when someone falls. Alexandra of 'America's Next Top Model' (Wed., 8PM ET on The CW) got up and got hit again. There is no humor in that. Alexandra showed courage. Alexandra showed yadacity courage.

To view goggle it anywhere in the world. Anywhere…..

Crazy Like a Foxx with Gabourey Sidibe

2010-03-17T17:04:00.000-07:00

FOXX on SIDIBE side.

How can anyone deny the genius that is Jamie Foxx? Who yadacity asks, who would dare?

Today, on Foxx's Sirius XM radio show The Foxxhole, the Academy Award™ winner came to the comedic rescue of award-winning actress, Gabourey Sidibe.

Her foe is radio personality Howard Stern. On his menu, he warned that she should seek help immediately—due to her weight--- before she encounters future fatal health issues. The actress' mother, Alice Tan Ridley, told him to "get a life."

Yadacity note: “Our name is ‘Bess,’ and we ain’t in this mess.”

Not to lose a p.r. opportunity -- Acai Supply -- has approached the 26-year-old to provide her with a year's worth of their weight loss product.

Check out the audio clip on you tube. Foxx's Sirius XM radio show 'The Foxxhole.' "Where Gabby does Biggie Smalls with Precious..."

ROBIN HOOD is directed by Ridley Scott and stars Russell Crowe. The talented bad boys (and yadacity means that with love) reunite for their fifth big-screen outing, a retelling of the Robin Hood legend featuring the Gladiator star in the titular role.

yadacity loves these lines, from the trailer, “….are you ready to be who you are?” Honey what strong woman, lesbian, man, gay man and trans isn’t. Come on Robin—in the hood! We will ride with you.

The second great line: “Rise and rise again until lambs become lions.” You think brothers, you think!

LONDON CALLING, PICK UP, IT'S ABOUT LADY GAGA, again

2010-03-17T09:07:00.000-07:00

“London calling……” Actress Down Under

As she touched down in Auckland city, the hype over Lady Gaga was at fever pitch. Her Beyonce collaboration 'Telephone' had just débuted worldwide reminiscent of Michael & Janet's 'Scream' back in 1994. Yadacity has been following the progress of the lady back in 2006 when she featured on 'The Hills' and to see her live in concert was a whole new level of fabulosity.

In the flesh, Lady G is curvaceous yet toned, adorned in tattoos & her translucent skin and extraordinary talent evokes a regal quality. Gaga sang her little lungs out live in exquisite costumes and danced herself breathless in a spectacular cabaret... the crowd hanging on her every word. Her set was like a hypereal AO fairytale pop-up book come to life.

The constant mention of her gratitude for her fan's support & the fact that she invited Semi Precious Weapons as her supporting act when in fact she herself had supported them years before (when she was a nobody) proved her integrity as an artist & also her loyalty as a person. Her Monsters Ball concept comes at a time where the world is ready to embrace and accept originality and obscurity, thus making Gaga an instant icon and indeed the new Princess of Pop.

TOMMY KOCH is FUNNY MAN

2010-03-16T15:17:00.000-07:00

FUNNY MAN, that is Tommy Koch!

Bio: Tommy Koch (last name pronounced COOK)

Born and raised in Waterloo, Ia.
Attended the University of Iowa and graduated with a BA in History.

"I moved to Los Angeles because I had so many college loans that I knew I wouldn't be taking a vacation for a long time. So I wanted to live somewhere that would feel like a year round vacation.

So, I settled into a little, and I mean tiny, converted garage a mile from the beach. Luckily, it came "furnished". The vacation began!"

"The first jobs I had in L.A. were printing T-shirts, Children's shoe's salesmen, Basketball Coach, Teacher, Kept Man... oh wait, that never happened."

Then the Gods intervened. I got fired. My dreams came true when I was asked to do some extra work that showed me anyone can get paid in Hollyhood. So my quest began. I am a writer, actor, comedian... Lover, Brother, Action Hero, and of course, just an all around good guy.

This will be my second performance at the Comedy Store in the Belly room.
The location: 8433 Sunset Boulevard West Hollywood, CA 90069.
The show starts at 9:00 pm it's $10 to get in + two drinks.
You can contact me through Facebook at Thomas Koch.

A: It's no Poker Face.

Q: In a fight, you can take five people (living or dead or dying) who would you take and why?

A: Moses and his Staff which does not count as another person. Cause he can make sure we get away and no one will follow.

Harry S Truman cause I want to win.

Ghandi cause maybe we can talk it out.

Mike Tyson nough said.

Axel Rose cause I want hear "Welcome to the Jungle" I need theme music. "You can have anything you want but you better not take it from me in the Jungle welcome to the Jungle."

The Big Fix and the Handsome Darryl Stephens

2010-03-11T10:16:00.000-08:00

Yadacity today ……

In West Hollywood @ the Big Fix, the best coffee shop in all of Los Angeles, one of our staff members ran into Darryl Stephens of NOAH’S ARC fame.

The Big Fix is a place for writers, to write. The food is excellent, the company entertaining without being over the top in that Hollywood “blah-blah” style and the owner is a transplant, from New York, who appreciates the value of silence and great java.

Yadacity loves THE BIG FIX. You don’t need a big wallet to be happy on Sunset Blvd.

www.thebigfix.com

A yadacity suggestion:
Buy or Rent NOAH’S ARC: Jumping the Broom, The film is based on the widely popular Logo series about the lives and loves of four, gay African-American men in Los Angeles.

Cozy in with popcorn or vodka martins and follow the lives of: Noah, Alex, Ricky, and Chance as they travel to Martha's Vineyard for the marriage of screenwriter Noah (Darryl Stephens) and his partner, Wade (Jensen Atwood),

2010-02-17T05:06:00.001-08:00

Yadacity spoil alert ………re FAMILY GUY! ( WE LOVE IT)!!!!

Sunday's show has become a target of controversy (where have you people been, seriously, have you seen the show—like-ever-ever-like ever?) due to a joke about Sarah Palin and her family.

Dear creative team, unless you are part of the secrete Republican party (opps, did we slip) don’t give that Stupid Woman and her “family,” chained to her crazy game and her family which are stuck, frozen in Alaska (dudes and gals—snow, like, seriously-snow-like-snow) any more warm light.

This is a yadacity and a yadacity rainbow warning. We will call Tina Fey and she will answer, with Alec Baldwin.

Don’t make us get up.

Desiree Lim is coming, leave the light on and bring good wine

2010-02-05T04:03:00.001-08:00

Ladies and Gentlemen please find and keep, safe the Desiree Lim.

Ms. Lim is a director with courage., for more details go to http://www.wolfevideo.com/products.asp?id=1151

Here is the yadacity interview.

DESIREE LIM

Q: How is lesbian life in Japan-Asia?

A: Asia is a big place. Japan has clubs and pockets of communities - very fragmented. A lot of the *action*, *exchange* happens online
these days - very different from *my days* when I first came out in the early 90s.

Q: What is the first restaurant you will hit in Canada?

A: Vancouver, to be precise. Depends if I'm PMS-ing or not. If I am, I crave for Asian food so it would be Congee Noodle. Yes, that's the name of the restaurant. If not - Elbow Room. I love the west coast style breakfast and brunch there. Not exactly elbow-to-elbow, but small and cozy. Attitude is also their specialty. It's run by a bunch of queens.

Q: At your wedding you will wear, what?

A: Depends on the season. But probably a funky goth-like suit in true Japanese gothic fashion. Minus the make-up. Not my style.

Q: Last meal on the "third rock from the sun" would be?

A: Definitely *real* sushi.

Q: What Artists (anywhere in the world) should the world know > about......?

A: The Anderson & Roe Piano Duo - never seen anything like them before. Amazingly talented.

Brittany is calling.......

2010-02-04T13:25:00.000-08:00

Brittany Murphy's death was (according to the L.A. County Coroner) determined to be --and reported by TMZ -- an accident.

An accident. An accident?

More details from the source -- the 32-year-old died of community (break down the words) acquired pneumonia, iron deficiency anemia and multiple drug intoxication -- which included prescription and over-the-counter drugs.

Hold on, did they declare an accident?

Wait, there is more ….. the report also indicated that her death was "preventable." Re-read this. Seriously.

Our intelligent pals at TMZ (at that is from the heart of yadacity) states that her pneumonia was "treatable," but she wasn't taken to the doctor in time.

Question: Accident?

Now, if fantasy could come true JOHN STEWART would jump in and hit the point to the head with a sketch about accidents.

Here is the scoop kids, on the outside looking in, when you are making paper, clocking paper, touching paper ---yada-yada—making money is that most people feel that the truth is too expensive.

Wrong. A lie is more expensive. Stand up. Of course you will be hit (all nails standing do) but the truth will set you free.

How does yadacity know –we do not but ask O, Tyler Perry, Donald, Mariah, Jay-Z, Martha, Steven as in S…

Jump, the net will catch you!

The coroner's office's chief investigator Craig Harvey tells Usmagazine.com that Murphy weighed 115 lbs when she died and that she "wasn't the healthiest person in the world."

A full toxicology report is expected in two weeks.

Vanessa is a yadacity diva!

UGLY BETTY, don’t go!!! Tears are falling......

Ahhh ABC, how does yadacity step to thee? All those involved, on that award winning show, received their paper/money (well done and do a yadacity dance) but why take this show off now?

Oppss, got it. Here comes the movie and if we may be so--yadacity bold, follow “SEX IN THE CITY,” and only do two films and hire one of us from the staff.

Heads up: yadacity rainbow is coming. Love everyone, GOD does, really, it is not that hard.

The Gold "Man-Queen" is 82 years old and just like the rest of us, is finding the need to change and to change quickly.

Yadacity is speaking ……“Avatar,” is going to take home most of the little gold men. Let’s face it; James C. has been given permission.

However, there are others that have been given permission as well.

So, here we go…….

BEST PICTURE
“AVATAR” but “THE HURT LOCKER” should have got that nod.

BEST ACTOR IN A LEADING ROLE
Jeremy Renner “The Hurt Locker” and keep your eyes open for Mr. R –brother is here to stay and to rock and yada roll!

ACTOR IN A SUPPORTING ROLE
Stanley T – take it brother and throw the best dinner party for all of your friends. Yummmy! He has yadacity skills!

ACTRESS IN A LEADING ROLE
Wow, this is hard. Helen Mirren was born to do what she does. This is a fact. Don’t yadacity hate.

However, it will be Sandra.

A quick word of Meryl in “Julie & Julia,” she is beyond brilliant.

Here is a yadacity thought –Helen and Meryl in a film---hopefully written by a Brit.

Wait, we might be wrong on this one. Too close and all brilliant.

ACTRESS IN A SUPPORTING ROLE
Ahhh (insert a yadacity snarky face) it will be Maggie G.

ANIMATED
“UP,” and go on with your bad self –Peter Docter.

ART DIRECTION
“AVATAR,” and rock on Rick, Robert and Kim

CINEMATOGRAPHY
We are banging our heads on this because every one of them should win.

Why? Yadacity will tell you. We have no fear.

Mauro for having the strength of owning his art and understanding others. Barry for having the strength to show heartbreak and truth—a messy business. Robert for having the strength to bring humor into a spectrum, of so many small colors, it makes you weak at the knees. Christian, I did not see “The White Ribbon,” which bothers our team and we will take care of this over the week.

COSTUME DESIGN
“Nine” will take it. Walk on Colleen.

DIRECTING
James will take it for “Avatar,” but Kathryn and Lee should do a fun cooking battle for the little Gold man.

All on this list walk against the win and we are all lucky for it!

WRITING (Adapted Screenplay)
“Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire” by Geoffrey Fletcher.

WRITING (Original)
“The Hurt Locker,” by Mark Boal.

PETER JACKSON is so yadacity with THE LOVELY BONES

2010-01-29T10:21:00.001-08:00

There are few things not to like about Peter Jackson’s THE LOVELY BONES.

Of course, the lost of a child is not something to be celebrated but our collective need to believe we are never-really separated by those you love (and those that love you) makes this a “feel good” movie, believe it or not.

Yadacity heads up, this film is worth your hard earned money but try and get the first show at your local theater or the early bird special.

Peter Jackson has his paper try and save as much as you can with yours.

Keep your eyes on Camille Winbush

2010-01-26T09:07:00.000-08:00

Camille Winbush

• Keep your eye on Camille Winbush, the three-time NAACP Image Award winning actress (currently on ABC ‘s “The Secret Life of An American Teenager,” recently, she showed her support with Patricia Heaton for the Westside Pregnancy Clinic (WPC) -- a non-profit community care clinic based in Los Angeles,

One of our reporters on the scene, snacking down on the best chicken ever (from Earlez Grille (323. 292.1822) asked Camille why?

Yadacity question: “Why do you care?”

Answer: “It’s personal. My 21-year-old cousin is going to have a baby. It’s a girl. She, like so many others need a place like this.”

Because of services, like this, this girl will be healthy and given every opportunity to step up to the plate and win.

Yadacity has respect…go on girl…keep clocking those ABC dollars and keep your heart open to the world.

PATRICA HEATON is a caring woman in THE MIDDLE!

2010-01-26T08:45:00.000-08:00

PATRICA HEATON is a caring woman in THE MIDDLE!

Patrica Heaton (now giving her flavor on ABC’s THE MIDDLE) gives a damn. She cares. Missy H. does not talk it, she walks it and she has yadacity respect. Well done.

What she is passionate about is a place to help pregnant women and their children and family. She is passionate about the West Side Pregnancy Clinic and on Saturday, January 23rd they “cut a ribbon."

Westside Pregnancy Clinic (WPC), is a non-profit community care clinic based in Los Angeles, The creation of this third clinic grew from WPC’s desire to expand its commitment to a community with the greatest need.

The Crenshaw district seemed a good choice. The West Side Pregnancy Clinic champions early Prenatal Care. They provide pregnancy testing, parenting education, support, and then they step up to spearhead the Prevention, Testing and Treatment of Sexually Transmitted Infections.

On hand with Patricia Heaton was actress Camille Winbush (more on her this wonderful sister), Talitha Phillips, the CEO, Dr. Cadrin E. Gill, Tera K. Hilliard, Isadore Hall III, Minister D’Antoinette Williams and Mr. Spencer Hart.

Tera Hilliard, the Clinic Director stated:“By educating our clients, we will equip them with the information they need to make informed choices about sexual activity, pregnancy and parenting,”

Opps, did yadacity mention that it’s free? Free. What’s free ---this is free ----pregnancy testing, limited obstetric ultrasound, tests for sexually transmitted infections (STI’s), education on prenatal care, nutrition and general newborn health for expectant mothers, along with parenting classes for mothers and fathers -- vital services that many minority groups do not receive.

Emmy Award winner Patricia Heaton (“The Middle”) is on the board.

More on Ms. H and Camille Winbush, the three-time NAACP Image Award winning actress who stars on ABC Family’s weekly drama “The Secret Life of An American Teenager."

Westside Pregnancy Clinic is open Monday - Thursday with hours from 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Brad and A going split, split?

2010-01-26T03:27:00.000-08:00

The jaws are wagging about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie possible split!
Whatever people. At least Brad and Angelina cared enough to reach back and help others! At least they made a lifetime commitment to that truth. At least they keep their word.

These are not stupid people. I assure you the understand how lucky they are.

For those not in the industry, an actor stands on a mark, remember their lines --which are written (most of the time) by creative writers---wink-smile-roll-shoot and get Millions of dollars. Angelina and Brad are aware that police-persons, fire-persons, teachers, etc… step to the plate and do their work just as hard, if not harder, and they don’t get millions of dollars.

This team gives and not to get “publicity,” the step to service for the right reasons.

Yadacity says back the “f*#$%^&*” off. All relationships have a give and take and it’s private.

There are children involved and might we suggest, get a solid, interesting life for yourself. Love, eat, lose and thank whatever is clever that you live to fight another day.

Yadacity for SAG

2010-01-24T15:01:00.000-08:00

Here is yadacity’s pov on the SAG awards.

Sofia Vergara (ABC’s MODERN FAMILY) is one of the funniest women on the planet. She can’t help it; I think she prefers to laugh than cry. More to come from that Colombian! On a fashion Vegara tip, she did rock in the Carolina Herrera gown

Mo’Nique’s shout out to Lee Daniel’s was on point! He is an amazing, amazing creative.

Suggestion, read a book and pick up Sapphire’s PUSH.

GLEE, much like MODERN FAMILY and 30 ROCK has great creative energy behind it. Opps, so does UGLY BETTY, BROTHERS & SISTERS and lest us not forget THE OFFICE…

Julianna Margulies is a tremendous soul. Our team knows about her personal generosity and support of the arts, keep it going sister! Loving the locks, did Dr. Boogie do your ‘hair/’

Alec Baldwin is one funny man and our staff knows his love of pizza. Thin crust still your favorite or is anything that is good and cheesy still going to make your Irish eyes smaile? Yadacity would like to know.

Michael C. Hall --- sending you more love than you can imagine. Good energy going to GOD-Buddha-Allah or just your family’s chicken soup to keep your fight up with a smile.

We wish ‘Dexter,’ could have a private meeting with ugly diseases, starting with Hodgkin lymphoma, . The world would support that.

ONE NIGHT is a Netflix Rental - New York, sing it out

2010-01-12T18:05:00.001-08:00

Yadacity wants you to meet filmmaker Michael Knowles.

Michael is an award winning filmmaker who acts, writes, directs, edits, produces and to top it off, is also a cinematographer.

His short film “Nick and Stacey,” which premiered at the 2005 Tribeca Film Festival is now available on i-tunes.

Michael’s second film is “ROOM 314,”{which he wrote, directed and produced twice as a play before making it into a feature film.

The New York Times called Room 314 “an actors dream.”

Joe Leydon of Variety stated the Michael has a “fine-tuned gift for creating vivid characters with a minimum of dialogue and a sure feel for establishing and sustaining tension, sexual or otherwise, within limited timespans."

The Hollywood Reporter stated that: "The Filmmaker clearly has a gift for incisive characterizations and dialogue."

Now on to “ONE NIGHT” (which he wrote) was selected by 10 Film Festivals, two of which earned Knowles Best Director nods. Variety had this to say about One Night: "…pic gleans decent perfs from a cast mixing up-and-comers and a couple notable vets."

Michael’s next feature, “East Fifth Bliss,: is set to start filming in April of 2010 and will star Michael C. Hall. East Fifth Bliss was adapted from the novel of the same name by it’s author, Douglas Light and Knowles.

ONE NIGHT is a Netflix Rental - New York, sing it out

2010-01-12T11:06:00.000-08:00

Confused by all of the choices on NETFLIX? Don't worry yadacity has a suggestion, rent ONE NIGHT!

It's about crazy New Yorkers on their way to finding life, joy, good food, better friends and enjoying that lovely-complicated and inspringing city.

Hey New York, we miss you with every bit of our souls......

ONE NIGHT
Fifteen New Yorkers go into a Friday night unaware of the fact that their lives are about to change. Larry, an A&R executive, has been sublimating his deep fear of commitment by carrying on an affair with his young assistant, Emily, unbeknownst to his stunning model girlfriend, Mia, who gives her friend Gary advice about his love life while being unaware of the problems in her own relationship. Abby, a sensitive college student, worships her older boyfriend Marc, while thinking her devoted friend Clarice is only a child.

Michelle is looking forward to meeting Jack, with whom she's flirted online but has never met in person. Wendy is sure she needs a change in her life, but she's not sure what it should be. And Greg, a charming but nervous actor, finally gets to go out with Angelina, the object of a long-standing crush.

As the night unfolds, the characters all convene at the same music venue, and their lives intersect in ways both humorous and poignant. Angelina, who sings in a band that's performing at the venue, has to deal with the fact that Leroy, the lead singer, isn't over her. When Abby sees Marc, who's a bartender at the venue, hitting it off with Emily, it turns her world on its head, and she ends up seeking comfort in Clarice's arms. Emily, in turn, has to deal with an uncomfortable situation with Larry and Mia's presence together. Wendy hits it off with a Doug, a middle-aged guy who's had his heart broken, and realizes that she's hardly the only person her age longing for connection.

And Michelle has a dream date with Jack, but is unaware that her ex, a guy so dangerously broken-hearted that he's on the verge of losing it altogether, is watching her. Throughout these moments, we can see that the characters are driven by an unconscious desire for human connection, and their interactions with strangers reveal to them what they've been missing, allowing them to see others -- and themselves -- in a truer light.

By the morning, their lives have changed -- some subtly, some dramatically, but all irreversibly.

Mariah rocks Palms Springs

2010-01-06T18:30:00.000-08:00

Mariah Carey's performance, in the incredible film 'Precious' is good enough to win her awards.

However, it was her acceptance speech, at the Palm Springs Film Festival that has people tongues wagging. Shame, don’t hate!

In our opinion, it just gave us one more reason to adore her.

Mimi accepted her award ---for Breakthrough Actress for her role in the critically loved film Precious' ... and that's when things got “colorful.”

One Huge reason is that Lee Daniels understands how to get a performance from talent—he is gifted.

In the words of the great Joy B. of ABC’s THE VIEW “Who cares, so what?”
Mariah is a hard working businesswoman, performer, wife and loyal friend (a true friend) to many. She is tired, excited, exhausted, driven and determined. We all need sleep….

So toast with cherry wine, relax, pop in your favorite cod (of Mimi) and before the track begins do your best Joy B. impression “Who cares, so what!?

BEN STEIN has GOD on CBS....

2010-01-06T14:08:00.001-08:00

The following was written by Ben Stein and recited by him on CBS Sunday Morning Commentary.

My confession:
I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees, Christmas trees... I don't feel threatened... I don't feel discriminated against.. That's what they are, Christmas trees.
It doesn't bother me a bit when people say, 'Merry Christmas' to me. I don't think they are slighting me or getting ready to put me in a ghetto. In fact, I kind of like it. It shows that we are all brothers and sisters celebrating this happy time of year. It doesn't bother me at all that there is a manger scene on display at a key intersection near my beach house in Malibu . If people want a creche, it's just as fine with me as is the Menorah a few hundred yards away.

I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don't think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period. I have no idea where the concept came from, that America is an explicitly atheist country. I can't find it in the Constitution and I don't like it being shoved down my throat.

Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we should worship celebrities and we aren't allowed to worship God as we understand Him? I guess that's a sign that I'm getting old, too. But there are a lot of us who are wondering where these celebrities came from and where the America we knew went to.

In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke; it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking.

Billy Graham's daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane Clayson asked her 'How could God let something like this happen?' (regarding Hurricane Katrina).. Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response.. She said, 'I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?'

In light of recent events... terrorists attack, school shootings, etc.. I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body found a few years ago) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said OK. Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school. The Bible says thou shalt not kill; thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself. And we said OK.

Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave, because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide). We said an expert should know what he's talking about.. And we said okay..

Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.

Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out. I think it has a great deal to do with 'WE REAP WHAT WE SOW.'

Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace.

Are you laughing yet?
Funny how when you forward this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it.
Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us than what God thinks of us.
Pass it on if you think it has merit.
If not, then just discard it... no one will know you did. But, if you discard this thought process, don't sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in.
My Best Regards, Honestly and respectfully,
Ben Stein

AUDIE AND THE WOLF bites NETFLIX

If you do what you love, and love what you do, ........

2009-12-17T17:34:00.001-08:00

A yadacity opinion…re THE GOLDEN GLOBE.
The 2009 nominations were announced and (holler) Lee Daniels film, 'Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire', was among the nominees. Social network blogs were commenting that Lee Daniels and screenwriter Geoffrey Fletcher failed to make the cut.

Ok, Lee and Geoffrey will live to fight another day and walk down many-many red carpets.

When you really examine Lee’s work (and his creative background) he places himself in the second seat and gives the actors (and other creative people) such a structure of support, it’s no surprise he would be overlooked, in this category, at this time.

The film also snagged a best supporting actress nomination for Mo'Nique and a best actress nomination for star Gabourey Sidibe, -------you go girl and may yadacity suggest, take a deal in the lush world of television. In this land, the checks are fat and the pickings are many. Can yadacity say: Ugly Betty!

The film “Nine,” is a force of nature. It sizzles on the screen and splashes over everything. Rob Marshall, who directed the musical, should have at least, one, speech memorized for the award season.

An early yadacity prediction, Anthony Mackie (in "The Hurt Locker'") is just mere years away for the winning the ‘Golden Man.' Note, you can’t stop talent but in Hollywood, oh, how they try. Oh, how they try. I think the group Black Eyed Pears uttered it best in 'I Got A Feeling.' The entire song.

Yadacity thinks………..
BEST FEATURE - DRAMA:
Contenders: 'Avatar,' 'The Hurt Locker, 'Inglourious Basterds,' 'Precious,' 'Up in the Air'

Yadacity thinks: 'Precious.” Why, the genius James C. has enough money, it’s making money, and making money, and making money. So much money, that money is on stand by to build another world. Did he and his team not give you a travel preview in the film 'Avatar?” Book travel now!

Golden will go with the underdog (and it’ a great film) plus, at one time, even James had to learn how to walk before he became an 'Avatar.’

BEST FEATURE - COMEDY:
Contenders: ( '500 Days of Summer,' 'The Hangover,' 'It's Complicated, 'Julie & Julia,' & 'Nine.'

Yadacity thinks: In comedy, it will be “The Hangover.” However, “Julie & Jula,” is brilliant, sparkling and delicious. To be fair, the film does, really, take time to enjoy it: Like a great cup of (insert anything you enjoy) that you continue to return to, for the flavor, joy and comfort in the effort.

ACTRESS - DRAMA:
Helen Mirren ---come on. In fact, she does more then just hit her mark, this brilliant artist hits it out of the box, kicks it over the goal boast, runs a touch down and hits the lottery. In a thunderstorm, in the middle of a treeless field yadacity would welcome the opportunity to stand under her umbrella!

ACTOR - COMEDY OR MUSICAL:
It should be Joseph Gordon-Levitt, '500 Days of Summer,’ but he is young and there is so-so-so much more to come.

It will, most likely, be Daniel Day-Lewis for 'Nine'.” He is another actor of such pedigree, you stop in your tracks, and like a curious and confused puppy, cock your head, and ask ----what? Now, that is good.

ACTRESS - COMEDY OR MUSICAL:
If Meryl Streep does not win for 'Julie & Julia,’ yadacity strongly supports a food war! All restaurants should should down in protest and Mario B. (the crazy Italian in colored rubber shoes) should lead the protest.

No worries….she has that locked down like a boned duck.

DIRECTOR - MOTION PICTURE:
Yadacity says, it should be given to both Kathryn Bigelow and James Cameron Why: They both have balls of such determination, world’s shatter when they walk into and out of creative meetings. Did you not feel the small trembling and wonder---an earthquake ---Bigelow or Cameron?

SUPPORTING ACTOR: No opinion either way. It’s like asking what great piece of aged cheese do you prefer with a good wine, aged olive oil and a local wine –so good—they refuse to sell outside of their hamlet.

In contention: Matt Damon, 'Invictus'; Woody Harrelson, 'The Messenger'; Christopher Plummer, 'The Last Station'; Stanley Tucci, 'The Lovely Bones'; Christopher Waltz, 'Inglourious Basterds'

SUPPORTING ACTRESS: This one is hard. Yadacity thinks all the ladies should get together, 48 hours, before the event, and throw the best cocktail and dinner party with a cuisine of international comfort food.

After savoring the best bites, each gifted woman read their acceptance speech!

RUNNING: Penelope Cruz, 'Nine'; Vera Farmiga, 'Up in the Air'; Anna Kendrick, 'Up in the Air'; Mo'Nique, 'Precious'; Julianne Moore, 'A Single Man'

SCREENPLAY - MOTION PICTURE: Neill Blomkamp and Terri Tatchell, 'District 9'; Mark Boal, 'The Hurt Locker'; Nancy Meyers, 'It's Complicated'; Jason Reitman and Sheldon Turner, 'Up in the Air'; Quentin Tarantino, 'Inglourious Basterds'

Yadacity is going with a win for Boal’s “The Hurt Locker.”

Happy Holidays to our dearest. Happy Holiday to our all.

TIGER SAYS "4!"

2009-12-15T08:31:00.001-08:00

LEAVE TIGER ALONE

There are always two (2) sides to every story. Come on, even GOD has an enemy!

What is intriguing is how the media is handling the story. There is a collective (in my opinion) violent impulse to pull down a successful person. Again, I step up to the plate and state the obvious. He is a man of color. A man of many colors and somewhere, in this twisted world, they (the proverbial ‘they’) don’t feel comfortable.

Tiger…you know the real truth. You know it when you look into the soft eyes of your children. When their arms wrap around your neck and they say. “daddy or father”…. or just rest their little heads upon your chest.

That is love. Cling to it. Now, better yet, use your best swing and tell the vultures, at the door, to duck: 4!

We wait for you to come back.

Grizzwald Chapman needs help!

2009-12-14T05:49:00.000-08:00

Yadacity fans listen up. A fellow human being needs some help! Come on now…this is not a joke.

Grizzwald Chapman, known to most as Tracy Morgan's intelligent and kind hearted sidekick in Tina Fey’s (award-winning sitcom) '30 Rock,' is in dire need of a kidney transplant. Like yesterday. The actor revealed this need during a taping of 'The Dr. Oz Show.'

Chapman, a young man -- 35 years old –explained that he suffers from severe hypertension, thus requiring him to receive dialysis three times a week.

Tracy plays a “moron,” on ’30 Rock.” The actor, Mr. Morgan is a bright-bright-bright man. His ‘boys,’ on the show have been with him for years. Can you (yadacity) say “loyal?”
Yadacity has spoken.

HOLIDAY SPIRIT FUNNY

2009-12-10T07:56:00.000-08:00

I know, you blinked. We all blinked. It was a collective and stolen moment in time. A New (new?) year is mere days away and the promises that we/you/I/us, made ---compounded by the expectations we/you/I/us--- struggled to complete are now up for review.

Good news. We won. We did it! Don’t review.

We/you/I/Us stepped up to the plate and we tried 365 days.

Here is a loving suggestion, from yadacity for 2010, don’t make lists. Smile. Kiss your loved ones (often) even if they have feathers, whiskers or scales (careful on the scales).

While you are loving and being love here are a few suggestions for great film rentals. Music and art is yadacity forthcoming.

IT IS A WONDERFUL LIFE does not need a number. It is the # one film for holidays, gosh, for anytime. Below are a few yadacity suggestions.

1. MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET.
2. BELLA (well done boys)
3. WHEN HARRY MET SALLY
4. JULIE & JULIA
5. BREAKFEAST AT TIFFANYS

GEORGE C is a crazy man in UP IN THE AIR!!!

2009-12-07T10:38:00.000-08:00

UP IN THE AIR
Oh George, as in Clooney---a true Tarsus--- has hit it well and (smile and laugh) hard with UP IN THE AIR, from the director of the ‘snaky’ film JUNO.

According to the L.A. Times, the film (which is only in limited theaters in U.S. and Canada) earned 1.2 million in only 15 venues.

Here are five reasons you should spend your hard earned $10 bucks to watch UP IN THE AIR. Look below ----

1. George does not waste his time on “junk.” He has a villa in Italy; he does not need to work. Yet he does! Ummm, yadacityummmm, ummm????
2. He is a funny, funny, funny soul. Now, what is humor? Humor is good for the body! Serious, it is a major + to the internal organs. Therefore, to some degree, George is a physician.
3. George is one of the good ones on this third ‘rock from the sun,’ and he knows that when he works, others work –they live to fight another day. i.e. cameraman, Sovonto!

4. George has no issue with sexual identity. The lesbian, gay, bi and trans family loves you –gift cards would be forthcoming and would be welcome—wink, wink and wink!

5. Tarsus souls understand loyalty. Yadacity tips our hats to you! George is pure yadacity!

VIDEO PHONE is so sexy, Gay Men might re-think everything

2009-11-20T07:50:00.001-08:00

Beyonce and Lady Gaga (yadacity tagged Lady, early when London called) have collaborated for 'Video Phone.''

Flash-flash, warning this music video is s e x y. How sexy? Gay men will be re-thinking their choices!

This is just a friendly observation, the video is lush and the director and the team are A+.

However, Beyonce---you cannot top ‘All the Single Ladies Video,’ because, mama-you are now competing against yourself and that is one hard opponent.

Relax, you are already legend and the very best is yet to come.

You are allowed to breathe; it’s necessary for life.

The Problem Solvers is one of the best episodes on NBC's hit comedy "30 Rock." If you missed it on Thursday, you can view on NBC.com or hulu. It is off the charts good.

This episode was written by Ron Weiner and directed by John Riggi.

In Tina we trust. Thank you, again, for taking down the hockey mom from Alaska; we owe you.

Hide in plain, comedy.

'THE PRISONER has Jim and Sir. Ian--Help!!!

Jim Caviezel

'THE PRISONER,” the highly anticipated miniseries (from AMC) wanted great actors instead of good props! And AMC got it!!!

This six-hour, three-night event----just go get your popcorn and turn off your jawbone---is an interesting saga of a fellow who one day wakes up in a strange place with no memory of how he got there.

Stop, view the trailer and then read!

Ok – yadacity asks: who mixed those drinks?!?!????!

Flash forward, this guy is now assigned a number — Six — instead of a name—( a rose by any other would still smell as sweet) ---, and is told that nowhere else exists,

Opps, somewhat got permission!

Flashback, circa 1967 -- when the original British television community received the universal green light. Flash-forward: The series tinkered in issues of cold alienation and lack of identity and timely countercultural themes. It turned out to be a beloved cult classic that still thrills hordes of fans today.

Ian McKellen is a true artist. Watch and listen. Children watch and listen.
Jim Caviezel (Jesus in "The Passion of the Christ") is running to hard to catch up to the talent of McKellen but he will win that race too, by a nose from Helen M.
