Katherine’s daughter, Dylan, Lane Whisteria returning for a visit that coincides with someone who is struck again. Katherine intensifies its plans to destroy Mike twisted and Susan’s life by calling the police and have him arrested by the police to tell an invented story about Mike stab her. Lynnette lawsuit against Charles and his company also increases more than most places a riff between her and Gabrielle
Angie and Nick Bolen are forced to pay the medical expenses of uninsured Danny, despite his secret identity will be discovered. Nick wants to go downstairs, but it is not Angie wants to stay and live a life as fugitives.
It’s beautiful, and skillfully provides a time (so far) a perverse pleasure surprises unstoppable but the ironies were not as significant or very serious. It’s a show, manipulates his characters, generates the lazy mood, for the sake of being a spectacle, and the desire to maintain watchable. Like many television successes of the 2000s “(Alias, Prison Break, etc) as its main objective the production of emotion, but I have always believed that the most fascinating could be the easiest thing is without points of view to observe a society at the time. For example, the characters are more caricatures of human beings. Let us not forget, what was originally a comedy act that had been rejected by almost all networks until the blood is added to it. Typical of the 2000s believe it was the CSI!
(Knots Landing) began as a primetime soap opera with social concerns and the feeling of the operas of the 1980s “soap others where gambling and the state, as the hardcore killing sumptuous feasts the day: Dallas, Dynasty, Falcon Crest, but somehow the social interests ultimately prevailed. Desperate Housewives took the life of the middle class and mixed with the fever and the flamboyant touch of the other party, to establish a formula for its own where the fun is the ultimate goal. Forget the clever narrative (some of them are smart though), forget the spectacle of being a character study, and forget about reading your community accurately. It is a journey of absolute genius, where the script in a highly professional manner give him some nice moments to laugh, get excited, only.

Top 3 David Lynch Movies
Filed Under Movies | Leave a Comment
Since his debut film “Eraserhead” in 1977 David Lynch has carved his own niche in the film industry, writing and directing some of the most unique and strange films to come out of California. He has since been nominated for 13 Oscars for films he has worked on. Here is a quick introduction to the work of David Lynch and his top three films.
Blue Velvet
One of Lynch’s most famous films in large part due to the controversy surrounding it and the extensive hatred film critic Roger Ebert had for Lynch’s vision, “Blue Velvet” is still a strange, dream-like trip down main street of everytown-USA where everything isn’t as it seems. Starring Kyle MacLachlan, who would star in Lynch’s TV series “Twin Peaks” and play a reoccurring role in “Sex in the City” as well as Isabella Rossellilni, Dennis Hopper and Laura Dern, “Blue Velvet” attempts to show the seedy underside to our seemingly perfect small town American cities.
The Elephant Man
One of Lynch’s most straightforward and accessible films, “The Elephant Man” starred an indistinguishable John Hurt as disfigured Joseph Merrick and Anthony Hopkins as the man who tries to save him. Shot in black and white, “The Elephant Man” was hailed for its sensitive and accurate portrayal of Merrick’s life and appearance. Lynch handles the subject matter admirably, leaving out many of his strange directorial quirks in favor of telling a more straightforward story that will make you cry.
Mulholland Drive
Arguably the most important film of the decade, “Mulholland Drive” is a mysterious, noir-like psychological thriller mixes part Hitchcock, part soap opera, and part uniquely Lynch. It is one of the best movies about Hollywood made since possibly “Singing in the Rain,” and to this day, is debated because of its often contradictory, purposely oblique images and dialogue. “Mulholland Drive” was a powerful and breakout role for Naomi Watts who pulls no punches in her dual role in the film. No matter how you want to interpret its scenes, one thing is for sure, “Mulholland Drive” is a strong reflection on the often deadly allure and influence of Hollywood, the bright hid lights, and the pressures it puts on humans.

Mark Consuelos, who recently concluded his hosting gig for the reality dating show Age of Love, is set to play the title role in the film Husband for Hire. The new original movie for the Oxygen cable channel is set in Mexico, and is written by Kris Isacsson in cooperation with producers Tim Perell and Howard Gertler of Process Media, a company responsible for productions such as My Sexiest Mistake, Tempting Adam and Romancing the Bride.
Debby Beece, Oxygen’s president of programming and marketing, officially announced the movie, saying, “Husband for Hire, with its hilarious, gorgeous cast, is a perfect romantic comedy for Oxygen. This will be our fourth original movie with Tim and Process Media, and nobody knows our audience better than them.”
The romantic comedy will feature Mark Consuelos as Nate, who is hired by a Latina businesswoman named Lola, played by Nadine Velasquez of My Name Is Earl. She gets him to be her pretend husband to get her share of the family fortune.
Other cast members include Mario Lopez (Saved by the Bell) as the ex-fiance of Lola, Erik Estrada (Sealab 2021) who plays Lola’s traditional father and Tempestt Bledsoe (The Cosby Show, South of Nowhere) as Lola’s no-nonsense best friend.
Prior to Age of Love, Consuelos entered the limelight by playing Mateo Santos on the soap opera All My Children, where he met and fell in love with love interest and now wife Kelly Ripa. Soon after leaving the daytime soap, he ventured into films, miniseries and a number of television series such as 1-800-Missing, where he played FBI Agent Antonio Cortez and Hope & Faith where he played Gary “The Gooch” Gucharez.
His most recent appearances were on the movies My Super Ex-Girlfriend and The Pleasure of Your Company, and on Law & Order: Criminal Intent as a guest star.

Sappy love stories have its ways of getting onto us. The best ones are written by poets and romance authors. However, there is nothing more joyous than being in amour. Love stories are plentiful and hearing one may even spark the memory of your own romantic reminiscence. There are also break up stories which would bring a tear to your eye.
Latin American soap operas toy with monotonous housewives with intriguing plots which often revolve around the affairs and relationship encounters between the strikingly attractive characters. These daily drama serials, usually referred to as telenovela, are actually very similar in storyline. The elements are quite predictable, such unlawful affairs in past which brings out hidden familial linkages between the feuding characters. More often than not, the antagonist and protagonist are somehow related, relatively unknown to the fact in the initial stage of the plot.
Then there is also the element of murder and suspense. No drama is considered as a legitimate form of entertainment without these aforementioned characteristics. A certain character is framed and gets thrown into prison without having a chance of defending himself and then seeks revenge on the villain after being released.
In Bollywood, every emotion is celebrated by breaking into song. The grandeur backdrops of the enchanting snowy tops of Switzerland, the pedestrian-gawking roadside of London and the warm beaches of Mauritius are the favorite target of big-time film-makers when preparing for a song sequence. The lyrics of the song would then become a dialogue. Even in the Southern Indian film industry, the formula for a successful movie is obligatory to have at least two songs in it. Romance is also a huge part of the plot in an Indian movie.
At the end of the day, 90’s singer proudly sang,’ love will save the day’ in her famous track called ‘You Gotta Be.’

Alternatives to Story Telling
Filed Under Writing | Leave a Comment
There aren’t any! There, I’ve spoiled it for you, told you the ending before I even set the scene and outlined the case. Sorry, that’s not very good practice, but it proves my point. We all love a good story, one with a start, some middle and a proper ending. We can’t help it, we were born that way. We were hardwired from birth to accept facts, information, history and learning in that structured way. People who understand that particular aspect of human nature - like Dan Brown - can make a good living from feeding our hunger.
Some people aren’t so sure. I was talking to a student friend of mine from China and I asked him what Chinese young people and students were reading these days. I expected to hear ‘Harry Potter’ or Dan Brown, or maybe even magazines like Maxim or FHM. He looked completely blank. Hesitatingly, he said that all of his friends spend most of their time on their laptop computers and mobile phones. They listen to music, send and receive texts, emails and downloads, gossip and chat. What about books? Ah, books, he said, light dawning, those are the things we need for our studies.
Of course it’s not quite as bad as that. Harry Potter is indeed a well-known figure in China, as you will know for yourself if you’ve ever logged on to any Chinese websites. Ads for the young wizard occur on most Chinese news media sites. As do ads for movies, games and music. But these young students from China, they don’t read stories, right? Yes? Well then, what is ‘gossip’ exactly? It’s tales of personal experiences, mostly embarrassing, things you want to keep quiet. What is ’soap opera’? Even people who claim never to read a story book, most of them will be familiar with the goings on in Emmerdale, Ramsey Street or Coronation Street, Walford and the Queen Vic pub. And ‘goings on’ are stories. They are things that happen to people - first this happened, then that, and then, oh no, this is awful, that happened. Yes, it’s a story. It just doesn’t get put into words and published in a book, like we’ve been used to for the last three hundred years. It gets acted out, and then we get to know the actors and worry about them and their stories, their lives, their loves, their scandals. What’s a scandal? Another story, usually one with an unhappy ending.
My assertion here is that the mediums we are currently experiencing are changing rapidly. We didn’t have such a thing as an internet when I was a lad, and I’m old enough to have seen tape cassettes arrive and now, recently, disappear, as a way of listening to music. But songs are still here, and some of the songs I grew up with, such as The Beatles, I’ve seen on vinyl, recorded on cassette tape, on CD, and, most recently, available as a download on my computer. That hasn’t changed the song, or the experience of listening to such great music. The presentation has changed, and my ability to carry it around and share it with my friends, but the music is still there. The Beatles? Ever hear a song called ‘Eleanor Rigby’ by them? Yeah, sorry, but it’s a story. Well, you probably knew that too.
The point is that if the format changes, then the creator of the work might change too. For hundreds of years we’ve had stories in book form and their originator was called ‘an author’ and revered as a solitary creator, someone with wisdom, life experience and writing skills. These days we’ve got Dan Brown. No, I’m not running him down, honest, but I need to point out that he created a book and that book was turned into a film. It didn’t go out of his hands, however. If you’ve seen the movie, you’ll know that Dan is listed as some sort of ‘Executive Producer’. That’s the way things are going. Dan invents the story and it comes out in book form and then makes the jump into the cinema - oh sorry, I forgot that films are available in your own home now as well, as DVDs, or downloads. (It used to be video tape, but that’s come and gone as well, hasn’t it?) Heck, you can even put them on your phone. Yes, the format is changing. The thing that hasn’t changed is that someone, some person, some creator, has to come up with the thing in the first place - and it doesn’t matter if that’s a group, or a team, or a writing partnership, even a husband and wife duo. That act of creation, the formation of ‘the story’, is fundamental to everything that arrives in your bookstore, on your television, in your local cinema, or on your home computer. Whether that’s a ‘writer’, a TV executive, a producer, an agent, or whatever, someone has to do what people have been doing since we all sat around camp fires outside our caves and listened to someone with the inventiveness to weave us a story and enthrall us all.
Two things. One, these people are important. The recent writers’ strike in America should convince us of that. We can’t manage without story tellers of one form or another. They are intrinsic to any creative process, whatever the form. And second, the technical side doesn’t matter, not to the audience. Tell me, honestly, does the fact that your house is now full of DVDs and not video tapes make any damn difference to whether you enjoy the musical or the Kung Fu action thriller, really? I mean, if Shakespeare was alive today, he might be writing dramas for TV and using a computer word processor. Would that demean his talent and make his creations any less enthralling? No, the format and the outcome is irrelevant to what we started with - the hunger. We all have a need to hear stories, whether it’s gossip, soap, drama, song or novel, and we will always honour those with the sheer skill or determination to bring them to us. Yep, that’s right. Even Dan Brown, bless him.

MLM Tip - Generate A MLM Network Marketing Lead Using Youtube
Filed Under Home Business | Leave a Comment
When you think of viral videos, what do you think of? They are usually comical or touching, and hold universal appeal. They are the ones that individuals pass along, repeatedly, to all of their friends and family. The video of Susan Boyle, singing on “Britain’s Got Talent” is perhaps one of the most viral of all the videos ever prepared and it certainly put a lot of money in her pocket and the pockets of the producers of the show. There is a lesson to be learned here – how can a this mlm tip of using Youtube, help you generate that all important mlm network marketing lead.
Well, you aren’t Susan Boyle, so you can disregard about getting up on stage. But, you can still design a video that is viral and generate many hits. A viral marketing Youtube strategy should really be a piece of your entire marketing strategy if you would like to target a good number of folks as quickly as possible.
Again, a good number of viral videos are either comical (“Charlie bit my finger!”) or tender (“The Last Lecture”), so that is a fine place to begin. If you are promoting a product that has some sort of “how to” feature to it, then make a video that shows your product in an entertaining and exciting way. People might not be that excited that they forward it to all their friends, but if it starts to get hits, then you are on to something.
Other ways to create a viral marketing Youtube project is to create a string of videos. By presenting a new video daily or each week, you will bring people back over and over – just like a soap opera on television. Keep people coming back by not quite giving them everything they want or need – leave them hanging! You can without doubt make videos marketing work for you with a little bit of exertion.

One Tree Hill Dominates the TV Shows
Filed Under Television | Leave a Comment
I wouldn’t have expected anything less from the production company responsible for Smallville (an effective blending of two bipolar gender interests: comic book superheroes and teenage soap opera), but Tollin/Robbins Productions has made the lightning strike the same place twice with One Tree Hill.
One Tree Hill centers on the lives and loves of two half brothers named Lucas Scott (Chad Michael Murray) and Nathan Scott (James Lafferty) who both go to a high school in Tree Hill, North Carolina, and play for the same basketball team. Other plot points in the show include their smarmy, self-serving father, Dan Scott, Nathan’s poor, downtrodden mother and their respective love interests.
The series started with Lucas being recruited by the Ravens basketball team, which experienced a sudden lack of players after most of its team members were suspended for drunk driving. Lucas’ inclusion into the team and his exceptional performance didn’t go too well with his half-brother Nathan, who is the current captain of the Ravens. Nathan wanted Lucas off the team because he felt threatened and wanted to remain as the Raven’s star player, going so far as to help kidnap is brother and throw him into a ditch. Lucas persevered nonetheless, and eventually, after several clashes and complicated relationships that are intertwined with each other, and as a result of finding out that they share a common dislike for their father, Lucas and Nathan found themselves able to work together not only as brothers but also as teammates.
One remarkable trait of One Tree Hill is its ability to get both male and female watchers to relate with certain aspects of the show. One Tree Hill was in fact originally intended to be a show about the basketball team, and was tentatively called “Ravens”, until producers changed the concept to also get the female demographic interested. As a result, male viewers may be inclined to watch the show due to the masculine plot devices such as basketball, rivalries between brothers and peers, competitiveness in sports, and the brothers’ struggle against their unscrupulous biological father.
The female watchers, on the other hand, loved the soap opera aspect of One Tree Hills, Teenage girls and young twenty-something were the perfect target demographic for One Tree Hills complicated pairings and the twisted, strained relationships between the various characters in the show – from Nathan’s initial hostile reaction towards Lucas, their love interests Peyton, Brooke and Haley, the complicated relationships between their mothers and father, and everything in between. You can also watch One Tree Hill at Watch One Tree Hill OnlineThe relatively slow, sometimes plodding movement of plot is perfect for women who like to sit back and watch characters persevere, grow, and experience life to the fullest in front of their very eyes.
Still going strong since its inception on September of 2003, One Tree Hill has seen many ups and downs and continues to please its viewers and fans as it enters its sixth season. One Tree Hill is currently being shown on the CW Television during Mondays at 9/8C.

What’s important in life? Is it the material things, like the fancy house and swimming pools that makes one happy? Or is it finding fulfillment and purpose in one’s life?
For independent film actor Lodric D. Collins, it was finding happiness and fulfillment in something he is passionate about and the ability to turn that passion into a successful career.
“I wanted to be fulfilled,” the independent film actor told Regal Magazine. “I wanted to enjoy what I’m [doing].” That epiphany that Collins experienced came after visiting his mentor who seemed to enjoy all the trappings of success, like financial prosperity, but did not appear to enjoy his life or career.
It was at that moment that Collins, who holds a degree in marketing from Southern University, decided to quit his regular job and pursue his dream of acting full-time in New York. The independent film actor enjoyed acting as a hobby from childhood to college, acting in plays such as “The Wiz” and “A Blues for an Alabama Sky” in Louisiana, but living in New York provided him with the opportunity to take his career to the next level.
“I was doing it when I was younger,” Collins explained. “It was something that I enjoyed doing, but it wasn’t a practical thing [because] I was in Lake Charles, Louisiana.”
However, the acting background he received allowed him to effortlessly transition to the stages of New York, performing in several plays in the Big Apple. Nevertheless, the independent film actor was not satisfied with performing just on stage, and used his marketing background to forge an up-and-coming career in television and film. He began to use that marketing degree to develop himself as a business, which has led to roles on the hit soap opera “All My Children” and films such as “What Really Frightens You” and “It’s All Been Arranged.”
While some “serious” actors shy away from daytime dramas, Collins enjoyed his experience on “All My Children” because it taught him how to adjust to the fast pace of the soap opera environment.
“I’ve got a lot of respect for those people,” the independent film actor said. “I think that’s one of the hardest working areas and people don’t realize it (but) they actually film five days a week. Monday through Friday is a different show. Most actors are used to filming one season out of the year, (but) they film every day. It teaches you how to be quick on your feet and to adjust. You don’t have the opportunity for a second chance to do a good job.”
The independent film actor is especially proud of his role in “What Really Frightens You” because he got the opportunity to spend significant time with the director behind the scenes, learning what angles work and why directors shoot a certain way, which has made him better at his craft.
In the film, Collins plays a gang leader, which unfortunately is usually a role reserved just for African Americans. “There’s not a lot of roles for African Americans,” he said. “We’re coming out of that place. Especially when I first got (to New York), if they were casting a gang member, the next thing you saw beside it was African American.”
Despite the limited roles for African American actors, Collins enjoys playing a wide range of roles because it shows the diversity of African American life and the knowledge he received from watching behind the camera could eventually lead to less stereotypical roles, as Collins sees himself one day working as a producer.
Unfortunately, like most successful people in any field of human endeavor, the road to success for this independent film actor has been anything but easy. Collins, who had been successful at virtually everything he pursued, had to overcome rejection and self-doubt for the first time when he began his career in New York.
“There were times when I doubted myself,” said Collins. “I didn’t realize it was one of my characteristics until I came into this field. [However] you take no’s and rejections like vitamins. They make you stronger. It makes you want to push harder.”
It is that positive outlook that has allowed the independent film actor to defy the odds and find success in a business that he admits is outside of the box. “I’m on the edge of a lot of great things coming about. Big things are coming,” Collins said.
Ultimately, it is believing in big things that has allowed Collins to pursue his passion and not just a paycheck at any regular job. And it is that passion for the arts that has led to his happiness and ultimate purpose in life.

What Makes America Unique?: 3 Examples
Filed Under Culture | Leave a Comment
America is a place of wonder and dreams and often some pretty strange cultural traditions and events that other people in the world probably think are really odd and embarrassing. But we are American and proud so we don’t care. We will never stop. We can’t be stopped. Bush 4 Life! Mission accomplished! Here are three uniquely American things that Europeans probably laugh at us for:
Demolition Derbies
A bunch of cars crashing into each other is a pretty uniquely American event. I think most other countries would wonder what the point of watching cars bash into each is. I think the appeal of demolition derbies for Americans is that in our car-obsessed culture we find it thrilling to watch these totems of our nation being demolished in front of our eyes. Body kits flying, rust, steel, sparks, deafening noise–this is our America
Monster Truck Rallies
Similar to demolition derbies, the American-ness of monster truck rallies lies not only in the destruction but in the power and in the size, all things that Americans obsess over. These are also things that we are often made fun of for by other countries—our obsession with the biggest cars, the biggest sports stadium, etc. Monster truck rallies are one of the best places to go to see some of the more interesting segments of the American populace. And by interesting I mean moronic. You got that, right?
Professional Wrestling
Now, wrestling itself, in its many forms is hardly uniquely American, but packaging it in an outlandish, soap-opera box definitely is. Mexico is a lover of professional wrestling and the silly costumes that come with it, but even they can’t touch the ridiculousness of the WWE or WCW professional wrestling programs. These shows are less about wrestling and are more of a modern freak show circus, traveling around the country by bus, stopping in cities and putting on a raucous, rowdy show for beer chuggers and impressionable, future trailer park residents.
