Another Sex Tape
(Los Angeles) Playboy Playmate Nicole Narain has signed an agreement with the Arizona-based Internet Commerce Group (ICG) to distribute the highly anticipated sex tape that she made in 2002 with actor Colin Farrell.
Sal Abbate is the spokesperson for Internet Commerce Group, operators of www.MaleCelebrities.com and www.FemaleCelebrities.com. "We have reached an agreement with Ms. Narain to distribute her tape and we are now just waiting for the court to clear the way for us to do so." said Abbate. "We are hoping to have the DVD's available for the holidays," he added.
Attorneys for actor Colin Farrell filed a complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court in July to restrain Narain and ICG in response to reports that they were planning to release the intimate video. Farrell contends that the public distribution of this tape would be a violation of his privacy rights under California law. Kraig Marton and David Gingras, the Phoenix attorneys representing ICG, disagree and have asserted that federal copyright laws are at the heart of the issue. With that argument, ICG's attorneys succeeded in moving the case from state to federal court and a hearing is scheduled later this month to determine whether the federal Copyright Act preempts Farrell's state-law claims. If so, this will be a significant precedent-setting case and the tape will be released through ICG's www.MaleCelebrities.com and www.FemaleCelebrities.com.

Daugherty suffered a cut over his eye that required stitches. The man who hit him has been identified as 50-year old Steven Rogers. Daugherty declined to press charges against Rogers. (via

find a dog, part II
Pete & I went to look for a dog on Saturday we went to the
SPCA,
Pound, Petsmart (41st street),
Humane Society and Petsmart (Hell).
1st was the SPCA where I found
Nash &
Ali Both great dogs.
2nd was the Pound............. I will never go back to the Pound, ever. It was so bad, the smell, the barking.
3rd was Petsmart,
A.R.F. had some dogs on show. A.R.F. is great org. They do not have a shelter but foster the dogs about to volunteer families. I did not find a dog here but I will be back to look after Thankgiving.
4th Humane Society, Not real happy about that place but it was better than the Pound.
Last place was the Petsmart at 71st. Not sure who was organized that but they where BAD!!! They where setup in the middle of the store. Had about 5 to 6 volunteers who knew nothing about the dogs. when I say nothing I mean NOTHING you know the simple stuff like sex, breed. All the volunteers where sitting in folded chair gossping. When I went up to ask about a dog they acted like I was interupting them and did not get up from their chair. The topper was when the dogs started barking, they would take a squirt bottle and squirt them, from their chairs. FROM THEIR FUCKING CHAIR!!! I wish i had gotten a name but I was so pissed off I left. (please note that Petsmart was not part of the organiztion)
The upside of the day was, I think I found a dog... Nash, from the top, he looks like great dog. He did not bark and was very calm. I am going back, the saturday after next. If he is still there I will get him.

Sexiest Man Alive
WARNING: Very homosexual post ahead...People's annual
Sexiest Man Alive issue is out. Matthew McConaughey??? Really? He's hot an all and I love that he smokes pot in the nude while playing bongos and sometimes he likes to walk around his yard and pose for the paparazzi in a pair of jams while brushing his teeth (come to think of it, Matt's quite the multi-tasker). But I can easily think of many much sexier guys than him - fellow list makers Patrick Dempsey, Viggo Mortensen or Clive Owen for instance (and where the hell is Jake G?). I suppose that's why
People uses the term sexy - it's totally subjective and doesn't necessarily mean most handsome or best body. One person's sexy is another's troll. So maybe,
People should be congratulated for not making a more obvious choice. Naaah!
Of course, there is the possibility that this decision is made as it is at another magazine with which I am intimately familiar -- Matt's publicist just went 12 time, full page!
So, why do I have a picture of CNN's Anderson Cooper with this post. Anderson also made
People's list and I for one think he's WAY sexier than Matthew McConaughey. See, it's subjective. If we could only meet, I just know the Silver Fox and I are made for each other - le sigh. I would so love to be Victoria Vanderbilt's son-in-law.
For those of you who dont want to see Harry Potter or Walk the Line.
Set in the 1970’s, Breakfast on Pluto follows the exploits of Patrick Braden, an endearing, but deceptively tough young man. Abandoned as a baby in his small Irish hometown and aware from a very early age that he is different, Patrick survives this harsh environment with the aid of his wit and charm, plus a sweet refusal to let anyone and anything change who he is.

"I will break a forty on 'da curb and cut a bitch that bothers me on 'da phone - 'fo real. Now give me all yo money!"
Pat Robertson thinks god might send another hurrikin to destroy the Pennsylvania town where voters ousted theocratic members of their school board. The Christian extremists had sought to mandate the teaching of creation (aka intelligent design) in the district’s science classes. "I'd like to say to the good citizens of Dover: If there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God. You just rejected him from your city," Robertson said on the Christian Broadcasting Network's "700 Club."
Seattle Post-IntelligencerIn related news Rep. Thad Balkman, R-Norman says during the 2006 legislative session he will introduce a bill to require the teaching of intelligent design along with evolution in Oklahoma science classes. Balkman told the Associated Press: "I think most Oklahomans would agree that students are best served if they are exposed to all viewpoints, including the intelligent design theory, along with the theory of evolution. That would make for a more rounded educational experience.” "I'm a supporter of intelligent design to the extent that I believe that it is a theory on equal par with the theory of evolution." Balkman said.

Audio Book - Pompeii by Robert Harris
Dateline, August 79 AD: Marcus Attilius Primus, a young, savvy aquarius, or water engineer, has been sent from Rome as replacement for the AWOL Exomnius to ensure the proper maintenance of Aqua Augusta, the aqueduct that supplies Pompeii, Herculaneum and the towns on the Bay of Naples. Investigation into the problem of the aqueduct drying up and its failure to deliver its critical liquid payload uncovers not only municipal theft of water and graft of epic proportions but natural problems and concerns relating to Vesuvius and its pending eruption - tremors, pollution of the water with sulphur emissions, rockfalls, and shifts and bulges in the earth's surface, not to mention breakages and blockages in the aqueduct itself.

Tulsa Humane Society
Pete and I went to the
Humane Society of Tulsa Sunday to look for a dog for me. I found a great dog her name is Kathy (will be changing her name) and she is a Brittany Spaniels. She was a very sweet dog and would be a good fit for me. I filled out an application for Kathy (I wish I have a photo of her) but
here are some photos of the breed.
My roommate, was not open to the idea of me getting a dog. but I talked with him about it and took him down to meet Kathy
(I think she melted his heart). The last thing said was he is going to think about it. Anyways, I am not even sure that they will place Kathy with me. The woman working there said that there have been a lot of people looking at her but did not know how many people put in applications for her.
UPDATE: I talked with my roommate and he agreed that I could get a dog. but the bad news is that Kathy was adopted yesterday. I am sure she was placed in a good home.discovery
Touching Paris' Monkey
Well, actually it's not a monkey at all -- it's not even a primate -- but the press and gossip bloggers have been identifying it as such for the past several days. Seems the creature, named Baby Luv, attacked Paris in some Rodeo Drive lingerie boutique and then later got loose during a fashion show. I love this animal already.
Paris' new pet is actually a honey bear or kinkajou (props to
Jared for correctly identifying it), a South American mammal that's kind of like a cross between a racoon and an oppossum.
The small mammal staff here at the zoo don't recommend these animals as pets: a) they're wild animals, b) they smell like ass.
Who am I kidding though. Now that Paris has one they will be all the rage and every anorexic bottle blond from New York to LA will be wearing a souped up jungle possum around her neck. Melissa???
BTW: love the white bobby pin in her hair. That's hot!

Channeling Dead Celebrities
Harry Potter is cool and all, but the movie I most want to see this weekend is
Walk the Line - the Johnny Cash biopic also drops on the 18th. The movie looks great and is generating quite a bit of Oscar buzz.
Much as Jamie Foxx did for
Ray, the actors went to great extremes to recreate the real life characters they portray. Joaquin Pheonix spent months first learning to play the guitar and then learning how to play (and hold the guitar) like the Man in Black. Pheonix and Reese Witherspoon, who plays June Carter Cash, also spent time with vocal, dialect and acting coaches to master the singing styles, speach and mannerisms of their subjects.
I haven't heard the
full soundtrack (released Tuesday), but from the clips I'd say the efforts were successful. Pheonix sounds very much like Cash; a young Johnny Cash granted, but he definitely nails his distinctive sound even without the basso. He's especially effective on
I Walk the Line and
Ring of Fire. Perhaps even more impressive is Reese Witherspoon. I never would have given her credit for having the chops to take on this role, but after hearing the clips, especially
Jackson, and seeing the trailer - she is June Carter. She might be taking the twang just a wee bit over the top, though.
I'm also looking forward to seeing Tyler Hilton, (
One Tree Hill) who reportedly gives a virtuoso performance as Elvis Presley. The clips of his recordings sound technically good, but way too subdued for Elvis. Waylon Payne (godson of namesake Waylon Jennings and son of Willie Nelson's guitarist) sounds exactly like Jerry Lee Lewis. Also on the soundtrack are Johnathan Rice as Roy Orbison and Shooter Jennings as his father, Waylon Jennings.
Now let's see if the movie lives up to the hype and the soundtrack.

Sony Bravia Commercial with Balls
This is one of the
most gorgeous TV commercials I've seen in a long time, for the new Sony Bravia TV. Last July, Danish director Nicolai Fuglsig filmed 250,000 rubber balls bouncing down the streets of San Francisco. All the cars are props, because obviously these balls can dent. And the crew was required to wear protective helmets and shields. This is the result. Also, check out the
behind-the-scenes videos.

Music Review
But I have been listening to
Nickel Creek Album
This Side , The album on the whole is not worth the buy but there are a few songs that rock
Spit On A Stranger, Young and Hanging By A Thread. I like most of the songs with the guy singing, His voice is a little young but I am sure it will get better. Also not a big fan of the girl (she make my ass itch). Beyond that their music is just amazing ... they really know there instruments.
I am looking forward to listening to there new ablum

I just finished listening to
Confessions on a Dance Floor, the new Madonna album which comes out next week. Those of you who couldn’t care less may sod off now.
I won’t go into a lengthy review [I pretty much agree with
Andy, though]. Suffice it to say the album is great, especially after her last two efforts. Madge has come out swinging and managed to stay fresh while paying tribute to her lengthy career all at the same time. There’s a heavy 80’s/disco vibe running through much of the album with hints of past hits running the gamut from
Like a Prayer to
Candy Perfume Girl. Yes, she has a Kaballah song, a fun tribute to NYC and a couple of songs that seem to say to her detractors, “Fuck off – let he who is without sin cast the first stone.” Stuart Price has outdone himself as producer – the remixes are going to be amazing.
So that’s it; she did it. She redeemed herself. She is still a marketing-whore genius. She is still Bitch Queen of the Universe, and as Robbie Williams said after seeing her perform at the MTV Europe Awards last week (pictured above), "She's amazing. She's an absolute legend. I can't believe she's 89 and looks like that."
Oh, and it’s in the other place.

Kind of like some of you when you think about Frat boys. There has been reports the two girls have been released from the squad for behavior in violation of their contract. I guess titillating behavior is only acceptable during work hours. But there is good news, it looks like they will be landing on their feet, some of the Vikings players have already made them offers.

Possibilities
The album I’m raving about this week is
Herbie Hancock’s collaborative album
Possibilities. It was released at the end of August, but only recently came to my attention – I kept hearing Sting singing this new arrangement of
Sister Moon and finally tracked down where it came from. What a fantastic album. Much like the
Dolly Parton album I was gushing over last week, Hancock has put together an eclectic combo of established older performers and hot young singers with his sublime piano at the core. The instrumentation is fantastic, but Hancock lets the vocals the take center stage. There are really no weak tracks on an album like this, but it is so stylistically diverse some tracks are bound to appeal to you more than others.
Annie Lennox – Goddess of the Universe – delivers a haunting, delicate rendition of the Paula Cole/Peter Gabriel song
Hush, Hush, Hush and Paul Simon’s tender
I Do It for Your Love is one of the best things he’s done in years. And, of course, I’m in love with this sexy, sultry version of Sting’s
Sister Moon. Lisa Hannigan and Damien Rice give us a moody twist on the Billy Holiday classic
Don’t Explain and Hancock plays an instrumental number with Phish frontman Trey Anastasio.
Hancock chose an interesting mix of younger singers for the album. I would have never paired Johnny Lang – and his large-black-man-trapped-in-a-skinny-white-boy voice – with Joss Stone, but they rock the house in
When Love Comes to Town. Lang is a phenomenon, but Stone really holds her own. The same can be said for John Mayer, who lives up to his hype with the peppy album opener,
Stitched Up. The biggest surprise on the album, however, is Christina Aguilera on
A Song for You. Who knew this bitch could sing? Girl’s got some pipes!
My only complaints with the album: I could have done without a new recording of
I Just Called to Say I Love You and I wish Santana would go away for a while – I like the track, but that sound is getting a bit redundant.
In the words of Trent 
1st was the SPCA where I found Nash & Ali Both great dogs.
