You won’t find it on any official map and you won’t know when you cross the line, but according to some people, the Bermuda Triangle is a very real place where dozen of ships, planes and people have disappeared with no good explanation. Since a magazine first coined the phrase “Bermuda Triangle” in 1964, the mystery has continued to attract attention. When you dig deeper into most cases, though, they’re much less mysterious. Either they were never in the area to begin with, they were actually found, or there’s a reasonable explanation for their disappearance.

When we think of famous singers of standards that emerged and endured from the 1950s onward, two names automatically spring to the average lover of music: Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett. While these two legendary singers are undoubtedly at the top of their field, there was a bevy of other pop standard singers that followed them throughout this decade, a high-class group of accomplished vocalists that included (in no order in terms of greatness) Dick Haymes, David Allyn, Al Martino, Johnny Holiday, Jimmy Roselli, Johnny Hartman, and Jackie Paris.
While all of these singers enjoyed immense popularity as headliners and record makers in their own right, it’s debatable as to whether they ever achieved the level of popularity that the two “leaders” would surmount. There was another singer (who always cited Sinatra as his influence) amongst this group whose rich baritone voice had a quality and style all unto its own, his voice and career sustained well into his seventies. His name was Julius LaRosa, and we lost him two weeks ago at the age of eighty-six.

What up fam! Wanted to share some experience I had this last week. I have recently picked up a Wii U from Craigslist to play Super Smash Brothers 4 and Pokken Tournament. Which if you are looking to pick up a Wii U I would suggest finding one on Craigslist, don’t pay retail. I wanted to get somewhat competitive with it. So there are two huge draw backs with the Wii U, there isn’t a stock way to have a wired connection and the controllers are all wireless. Input lag isn’t something I want to deal with so I had to work around both of these issues. There is a way to get around the input lag, an adapter that allows you to wire in up-to 4 original GameCube controllers straight the console. Also a USB to Ethernet adapter is required to get the console off Wi-Fi and to reliable speeds with less latency.

In the 1970’s, we had so many great TV shows and one of them was ALICE. It starred Linda Lavin, who played Alice and took place in Mel’s Diner. You had a great supporting case and one of them was Beth Howland, who played the dizzy, but lovable Vera.
Sadly, Howland has died at the age of 74. She actually passed away December 31st, but her husband George Kimbrough told the New York Times he didn’t announce her death out of respect for her wishes, noting that she didn’t want a funeral or memorial service. He said the cause of death was lung cancer.

Though I don’t recall ever having an imaginary friend, I can’t be positive that one never came to play during my childhood. For most kids an imaginary friend is as common as chicken pox. However, what if your child’s new friend isn’t so imaginary? Here are a few of the most terrifying stories of unimaginable friends.
Betsy:
This is the story of a young girl whose parents divorced; her mother left them and her father took to drinking heavily. This young lady spent a lot of time alone when she finally met a new friend named Betsy. She and Betsy would hang out together all the time; Betsy showed her a really cool tree fort she had built in the woods and some old ruined railroad tracks. The girls became so close that Betsy even had Thanksgiving dinner with the family over at an aunt’s house one year.

John Berry, an original member of hip-hop group the Beastie Boys, died Thursday morning at 7:30 a.m. at a hospice in Danvers, Massachusetts. He was 52. John Berry III, Berry’s father, confirmed his death Thursday afternoon to Rolling Stone. He said his son suffered from frontal lobe dementia, which had worsened in recent months. Berry is credited with coming up with the name Beastie Boys when they were teenagers. He attended the Walden School in New York with Mike Diamond. The group formed in July 1981, with Berry and Diamond joined by Adam Yauch and Kate Schellenbach. The first Beastie Boys shows took place at Berry’s old loft at the corner of West 100th Street and Broadway in Manhattan’s Upper West Side, where a small crowd gathered to hear the fledgling hardcore/punk band.

There wasn’t an 80’s kid alive that didn’t try to repel down from the roof of their house using nothing more than a paper clip and bubble gum thanks to MacGyver. Wait, you mean that was just me? Every week my family and I would gather around the television in anticipation of what amazing gadget MacGyver, played by Richard Dean Anderson would convince us was perfectly possible to create. Though you probably know Lucas Till best as Havok in the X-Men film franchise, he’s showing off an entirely different set of superpowers in the trailer for CBS’ MacGyver.

It’s official! Fox and Chris Carter are going to make another season of The X-Files. OMG! Fan girl squeal… I’ve died I tell you! From the day this show premiered I have been a huge fan. When I heard of the six show miniseries they were putting out my head nearly exploded. Of course I sat glued to the boob tube like any obsessive and shameless fan would, for five of the six episodes anyway. That’s right, I still haven’t watched the last episode as I can’t bear to see it end…again. But now, yes now I have the strength to press play on my DVR and watch the not so final finale.
