Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman who was beyond talented was found dead earlier today of an apparent drug overdose, according to a law enforcement official who requested not be named because he was not certain the actor’s family had been informed of the death. The apparent cause is a drug overdose, but cannot be confirmed at this time.

“Manny Pacquiao was not the same Pacquiao of three or four years ago. His management complains that Mayweather is ducking him, but I will tell you right now he does not want to get back in the ring with Marquez. He would rather fight Mayweather, whose motivation is suspect.” — Jonathan Tiersten
As a 12 year old, I discovered video stores and began raiding the horror sections. I began with FRIDAY THE 13TH, watching every entry of the series at the time, and moved on to the HALLOWEEN series. These were great times. I walked around the horror section and found a movie called “SLEEPAWAY CAMP,” and it boasted of a memorable ending. At this point, I was slasher crazy and was very eager to see one with an ending to remember, so I paid my two dollars and brought it home.

It is refreshing to see somebody stepping away from the normalcy of living to chase a dream and create something artistic and meaningful. Richard Smith and I have worked at the same place for years, and when I needed extras for FAMILY SECRET in 2009, he agreed, and was moved to a speaking role. Through his acting ability, he has made his way into two other features in much larger roles (SCARY TALES, SICKLE) and that’s when I began to hear of “A SAILOR’S HAIKU.”

“Perhaps the biggest discovery we made is the inextricable link between major companies, governments, State Banking, the NWO and illuminati, being played out through Davos attendees and Bilderberg proponents.” – Hans Muller
It is often said that the best place to hide things is in plain sight. In every Hollywood production, the Masonic floor is present and the symbolism of an organization that supposedly doesn’t exist is everywhere, including the movies and music. The group is known as the “Illuminati” or the “New World Order.” George Bush, SR. has mentioned this phrase and so has President Barack Obama and the contention is that they both work for the same group of wealthy and heartless families that have ran the world for a very long time.

“I’ve always envisioned Yoto as a trilogy.” – Joshua Viola
Joshua Viola is the author of THE BANE OF YOTO. The book has been getting plenty of attention as of late and has quite the following. With awards ranging from the 2012 New York Book Festival to the 2012 Hollywood Book Festival, the future looks very bright for this novel, which will perhaps be the beginning of a franchise.

Maximilian Schell, who won an Oscar for his amazing portrayal of defense lawyer in “Judgment at Nuremberg,” has died at 83.
CNN has reported that Schell died at a hospital in Innsbruck, Austria, with his wife, Iva, at his side.
“He was suffering from a long illness,” Baumbauer said. “My mother was Schell’s agent for over 50 years, and when she died four years ago, he remained with the agency. He was like a father to me and knew me my entire life.”

Havana Lost (The Red Herrings Press) is award-winning author Libby Fischer Hellmann’s tenth novel and third stand-alone thriller. On the eve of the Cuban Revolution, headstrong 18-year-old Francesca Pacelli flees from her ruthless Mafia-boss father in Havana to the arms of her lover, a rebel fighting with Fidel Castro. Her father, desperate to send her to safety in the US, resorts to torture and blackmail as he searches the island for her.
So begins the first part of a spellbinding saga that spans three generations of the same family. Decades later the Pacelli family is lured back to Cuba by the promise of untold riches. But pursuing those riches brings danger as well as opportunity, and ultimately, Francesca must confront the lethal consequences of her choices. From the troubled streets of Havana to the mean streets of Chicago, Havana Lost reveals the true cost of chasing power instead of love.

January 28th, 2014 CEO It’s a documented fact: a surprising number of men cheat on their partners (see http://bit.ly/1hJ2XNz). Now, noted psychologist and author Peter Sacco and sex therapist Dr. Debra Laino offer readers the straightforward reasoning and causes for cheating and a discussion on what is sometimes viewed as “acceptable” cheating. Madonna Complex: Why Men Are Wired To Cheat is now available online from Chipmunk Publishing.
“Here’s what it looks like sometimes,” Sacco says. “She lays on the floor sobbing. She just found out — he’s been cheating. Not once, not thrice, but for years! He says he is sorry. In fact, he says he loves her more than the other. After all, she is his wife and the mother of his kids. With his palms pressed against his forehead, it is his turn to cry, ‘I can’t help myself!’
“Is it real or is it an excuse? Can sex really, truly be an addiction, out of control, or is it just another cynical card to play when the rich and famous get caught? When is it BS and when is it really worth saving the marriage? After all if sex is an addiction, that makes it an ‘illness.’ Do you dump someone just because they have a mental illness?”

Pete Seeger a folk singer, but so much more has died at age 94 in his sleep at the New York Presbyterian Hospital, where he had been for six days. My late father Alvin Berkwitt, raised me on so many great musical artists and Pete was always in his rotation of albums. I can recall my father telling me they had met and that Seeger just didn’t talk the talk, but he walked the walk when it came to humanity. We lost a great man, but the world will have his music and remember his kindness to Planet Earth for decades to come.
NewzBreaker extends our deepest condolences to the Seeger family in their time of grief.

(Interview from 2010)
Over time I’ve observed that I have a special affinity for artists that hail from my hometown, New York. What attracts me is a certain down-to-earth realism that not only influences choice of subject matter, but also how it is expressed. I believe the operative word here is “soul”. Robbie Dupree is from New York, and indeed possesses soul in great abundance.
You can feel this easy, pragmatic, earthy realism in Robbie’s songs. I always enjoy an artist whose CD you can put on…. and leave on. Robbie is such an artist. Easy to listen to. The songs are melodic, the rhythms engaging and his vocal delivery effortless.
I noticed he released his new CD on Spectra Records; and it so happens that I have recently licensed a CD for release on Spectra as well. I guess this makes us label-mates……. partners in crime, as it were. – Gregory Abbott (Singer & Songwriter)
