| Bill Murray: People Didn't Used to Take Filmmaking So Seriously |
[Nov. 9th, 2009|12:10 pm] |
Bill Murray was a hit as the voice of animated, comic-strip cat in Garfield, and now he's returning to animation as a badger in pal Wes Anderson's The Fantastic Mr. Fox.
Murray was OK with letting George Clooney take the lead role as the foxiest of the foxes. Murray, who is not easily impressed, was pretty much blown away by his co-star.

| TV Ratings Sunday |

Cowboys Point NBC To Win; Housewives, Brothers & Sisters Hit Lows
On a Sunday when second place was a horserace, first place was not, as the Dallas Cowboys lifted NBC and Sunday Night Football to an easy win with an average 6.2 rating for adults 18-49 in primetime. Early metered market numbers indicate it was NBC’s best Sunday night since September 20.
Perhaps the ladies like watching Tony Romo, because against the Cowboys/Eagles Sunday Night Football game ABC’s women focused line up took a dive. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition was down 9% to a 3.0 adults 18-49 rating. Desperate Housewives hit a season low 4.3 rating, down 14% from last week. Brothers & Sisters tumbled 12% to a 2.9 rating, also a season low.
Because of an NFL overrun last night, CBS’ timeslots and numbers are a mess. Although it seems clear that both Three Rivers and Cold Case did dreadfully.

Exclusive Interview: Real life couple John Slattery & Talia Balsam on 'MAD MEN' - Season 3 and 'IRON MAN 2'
The husband and wife talk both Madison Avenue and metallic as the hit AMC series concludes its latest season
While watching AMC’s Emmy-winning hit drama MAD MEN (which wrapped up Season Three this weekend), if you experience an unusual sense of realism in the scenes between John Slattery as ad agency co-owner Roger Sterling and Talia Balsam as his now ex-wife Mona, it could be because the actors have been wed to one another for the past decade in real life.
On his own, Slattery has recently been in FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS, CHARLIE WILSON’S WAR, K STREET, DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES and plays Robert Downey Jr.’s dad in the upcoming IRON MAN 2 and Balsam’s career dates back to being a child actress on HAPPY DAYS – she was in K STREET with Slattery and just played the Surgeon General on FLASHFORWARD. The pair talk about playing married in the Sixties while being married for real in the present.

| Student loans; change in circumstances |
[Nov. 9th, 2009|04:03 pm] |
Hello all!
I've asked the SLC this question many, many times but I always get a weird answer or the staff, for some reason, can't get their head around what I'm asking. Uni have been particuarly useless, too.
Basically, I am in my third year at Uni and I have a non-income assessed loan. If I had gone with income assessed when I first got involved with the SLC in Feb 2007 (so the spring before I went to Uni) I would have got ZILCH, because on paper it looks like my parents are loaded.
Same deal with the second loan I applied for.
The third loan I applied for was, again, the same thing although this time I was living with my boyfriend but had a funny feeling they'd try and take his earnings into account if I went income assesed.
This is the tricky bit. I applied for my third year finance in April 2009 literally a week before finding out I was pregnant. There is no option on the forms anyway to say 'I am knocked up, help please', but I did call up the SLC in June and explained that halfway through my third year I would have a dependant. They told me I would be entitled to more financial help as a result of this, and then through that would be able to recieve a grant through Uni. But, how is this possible if all my loans for this year have been approved and set in place? Are they talking rubbish? The baby is due in about 6 weeks, so when I go back in January my circumstances will have TOTALLY changed. I may even need to take a year out, who knows, but it would be nice if I could get some guidance on this? Perhaps from someone whose had a similair experience?
Thanks in advance! |

Jerry Fuchs, drummer for several bands, including !!!, the Juan MacLean, Maserati, and Turing Machine, died Saturday night after a fall down a Brooklyn elevator shaft, the New York Post reports. He was 34 years old.

In a post on his website, Juan MacLean writes, "Jerry was one of my best and most loyal friends. He was hands-down the best drummer I have ever played with or seen for that matter."
A post on the Maserati website reads, "We are humbled to have been able to create music with you for all these years, Jerry. You will be missed more than words can express. We love you, bro."
