The Voice

My current addiction. The Voice on NBC is da bizness! This week starts off the live shows. I'm not sure if I'm Team Blake or Team Xtina, they both have some amazing talent on their teams! ;) peace

Did not know Blake could those notes!! Sexy!



Still one of my favorite female collaborations and Team Xtina did a great job with it

Gander, Newfoundland

So I'm watching the Olympics on NBC and Tom Brokaw just came on and started this documentary about Gander, Newfoundland. I thought it was going to be like a 5 min documentary but turns out it's a full blown hour long documentary.

"On September 11, 2001, 39 heavy aircraft were diverted to Gander International Airport when airspace was closed in the United States because of tragic terrorist hijackings. Runway 13/31 was converted to a temporary aircraft parking ramp. The airport terminal was turned into an aid centre as food and clothing was distributed to stranded passengers. The airport and its surrounding community afterwards received high praise for their response to the tragedy."



What a great story and the people of Gander, Newfoundland...thank you on behalf of America! Talk about a story falling through the cracks, I never knew all those planes were diverted to Gander and that American air space was shut down for the first time...ever. I realize at the time we had other things on our mind as a nation but I'm so glad Gander, Newfoundland got the praise and recognition they justly deserved.

You can read the story from Gander's Airport's website.

Gander was a town of 10,000 and they helped out and accommodated almost 7,000 people...that is just amazing to me. They provided home cooked meals, clothes (the passengers weren't allowed to take their luggage off the planes) and compassion. The people of Gander give me new faith in human kind, absolutely wonderful. ;) peace

Nicole Richie

Bet you didn't think you would see that blog title eh? Well I just saw her on Chuck and she whupped some ass! I was impressed! Not a big fan of hers but hey as an actress that did some karate...she did good. ;) peace
p.s. no she is no Michelle Yeoh...but hey for a no talent celebrity...not bad.

CHUCK!!

Did anyone watch it? I got chills! Bryce is alive!!

Heroes!!

OMG! How good was the episode tonight? Sorry I don't do recaps...but I can't wait for next year!!

Heroes...

...I love this show. As I mentioned before, I am into the whole super hero thing. Fantastic 4, X-Men, The Matrix, even Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. I love the fact that these characters have these "powers". Ok, so tonight we know a little bit more about Niki (Ali Larter), I still do not know what her super power is though, I mean to me it's like she just has a split personality! Sorry I don't do recaps, but it was a really good episode and next week........... THEIR SECRETS ARE OUT! I think Niki's son also has powers...I'm sorry I mean "talents"...because his father does, yes Niki's husband is back in the picture and it seems he can blend into things or go through them. As usual, the trailer for next week gave me chills. For the first time....there is a pic of a very attractive woman on this blog...please don't boycott me. I have a room to clean, laundry to do and it's already late...so this is it, I promise better tomorrow! ;-) peace

Ali Larter
