Gay Rights Group Calls For Hollywood To Boycott Georgia

March 23rd, 2016

CEO

One of the leading gay rights groups in the country is calling on Hollywood studios and executives to boycott the state of Georgia if the state passes the religious freedom bill that passed through the state legislature this week. If the law passes, the state’s NFL sports betting odds of hosting the Super Bowl in 2018 will be very slim.

The bill need to be signed by the state’s governor before it can become a law, and the Governor’s office has received a lot of calls asking him not to sign the bill into law. If signed into law, the bill will give religious organizations the right to deny employment to LGBT people and the right to refuse the use of their facilities based on their religious beliefs.

By “Bad” Brad Berkwitt

Absolutely sad news to report that conductor and singer Frank Sinatra, JR. son of the Icon Frank Sinatra, died earlier today at the age of 72 while on tour in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Facebook and other social media sources were blowing up with the news and the Sinatra Family is in deep mourning for their beloved son, brother and uncle. Frank is survived by his son Michael, his mother Nancy, older sister Nancy, and younger sister Tina.

Shapeshifters: Supernatural Entities or Mental Illness?

March 15th, 2016

CEO

By Kristi O’Toole

When you think of shapeshifters, typically a werewolf comes to mind, at least for me it did. I say ‘did’, because once I began research for my last supernatural novel, ‘Winds of Change’, I was surprised to see the broad range covered by these mystical creatures. The idea of shapeshifting has been present since antiquity and may be common in all cultures. It is present in the oldest forms of totemism and shamanism where the shapeshifting is usually induced by the act of a deity. The idea continued through the Middle Ages, where the cause of shapeshifting is usually a sorcerer or witch, and into the modern period. It holds a common place in modern fantasy, children’s literature, and works of popular culture.

On November 13, 1974, police discovered six members of the DeFeo family-father, mother and four of their five children, shot and killed execution style at 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York. Now no matter how you look it or what your belief is, when six people are murdered it’s a horror; jut not necessarily the horror Hollywood turned it in to. Or is it?
