Kanye West Ruins Taylor Swift’s VMA Win – Obama Calls him a ‘Jackass’

Friday, September 18th, 2009

The VMA 2009 was worth watching this time round… Besides the usual memorized speech and accepting of awards, this VMA was quite different. Thanks to Kanye West or should was it Taylor Swift? West does have a problem keeping his big “ego” in check when he lost his cool at the awards. He walked up to Taylor Swift who was making her acceptance speech after being awarded Best Female Video, snatched the microphone and blabbered that Beyonce deserved the award because she had one of the best music videos of all time.

Kanye West Ruins Taylor Swift’s

Hilariously, the cameras turned to Beyonce, who was seated in the audience with her mouth opened shocked at Kanye’s statement. Phew…! What was he thinking? Kanye handed back the microphone to Taylor and walked down the stage as the audience booed him. Taylor tried to continue her speech but her microphone was cut off. So terrible for her… However, the camera awkwardly cut to Tracy Morgan and Eminem while Taylor was escorted off the stage.

President Obama had also expressed his shock and called Kanye West a “Jackass” while talking to ABC News. An ABC News employee tweeted the remark made by the President but was asked to remove it since it was an off-the-record portion of the interview with the US President.

Want to bet on the next awards show or bet on Kanye being awarded the “Best Male Jackass”? Then, log on to Bodog Sportsbook where you can bet on almost everything!

Online Casino Gambling for your iPhone

Friday, September 11th, 2009

IPhone Casino Gambling With the rapid advances in technology, you can now enjoy playing your favorite casino game on your iPhone by just connecting your iPhone to the online casino of your choice and playing directly off its website. You can indulge in all the games of your choice while enjoying the unique iPhone experience.

However, the usage of the iPhone for any gambling or online gambling action is not permitted in the US, so this facility is available only to those who reside outside the US. In effect, if your iPhone carries a US number you will not be able to download any casino software.

The gambling experience on your iPhone is very similar to that of your computer in fact even better! Microgaming, one of the leaders in online casino software having been in the industry for nearly 15 years is the only mobile gambling provider who offers this facility, but due to the gaming rules and regulations in force they are unable to accept US Players.
This phase is bound to change with more casinos who accept US players offering mobile gambling, and it’s only a matter of time before online gambling is made legal in the US, for the fact that there are so many recommendations and requests that are being put forth to the Congress to consider legalization.

In the meanwhile, US players can play off casinos that accept their bets with no restrictions whatsoever and too from the convenience and comfort of their homes!

Andrew Tells the Naked Truth On Oprah

Wednesday, September 9th, 2009

It’s funny how people run to Oprah Winfrey to tell their problems to when nobody else hears them out…! It’s like this, when you are hungry you go to the refrigerator, when you down with a hangover you go to the medicine cabinet and when you’ve been secretly filmed naked through the peep hole of your hotel room, you go to OPRAH…. That hasn’t happened to me yet, but Erin Andrews definitely has something to fuss about.

The stunning ESPN sideline reporter, Erin Andrews spoke to Oprah of her emotional ordeal when an unknown person, most likely a co-worker, caught her nude on tape without her consent. She explained to Oprah about her (infamous) peep hole video, that she was surreptitiously videotaped in the privacy of her hotel room calling the incident a “nightmare”. She was terrified the video might catch fire on the internet…. (you wish Erin) lol… The Oprah show will be aired on September 11th. The person behind this would for sure, face criminal charges as Erin intends to file a lawsuit.

Andrew Tells the Naked Truth On Oprah

Andrews has definitely been doing a good job on live ESPN broadcasts, especially the American Football (NFL). She has a way with her on-field interviewing and smooth transition of her questions to some of the biggest athletes and coaches. She has comfortably avoided awkward situations during her interviews.

Right now, Andrews is grooming up for another college football season for which she will be hosting as the on-field ESPN season opener where North Carolina State opens up against South Carolina. The NFL has certainly made its way to the heights of popularity among thousands of Americans. If you planning on placing any bets on the football game, then go to Bodog Sportsbook, a real good place to place your bets.

American Casino – The Documentary

Friday, September 4th, 2009

…. By January 2009, the U.S. Government had pledged over $8 trillion on behalf of American taxpayers to bail out Wall Street. Most people would like to know why!….

American Casino is a powerful and shocking look at the subprime lending scandal. If you want to understand how the US financial system failed and how mortgage companies ripped off the poor, see this film”…. Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel prize-winning economist

American Casino”—a terrific documentary chronicling the subprime-mortgage mess and the financial collapse of the past two years”…….. The New Yorker

A meticulously structured film”…. The New York Times

As the reviews above have stated American Casino is a documentary by Leslie & Andrew Cockburn that is paraded on the disastrous financial scandal where the United States had pledged a whopping $12 trillion to bail out Wall Street and $18.4 billion was given out as bonuses last year in Wall Street. The story involves shocking images of polluted and abandoned swimming pools in South California.

In Riverside County some landlords forced into foreclosure have switched off their pool pumps, making it a breeding place for mosquitoes, but they have also filled up the spaces with toys and other random trash. Some of the residents have even driven their vehicles into the pools. But why? Jared Dever, a gentle-voiced regional officer who sprays the polluted water with chemicals and pesticides to destroy mosquito larvae, claims that it might be a selfish retaliation.

These decaying, junk-filled dumps are also petri dishes for rodents and insect-spread diseases. Yeeessh! Some other abandoned houses turn out as meth laboratories and private marijuana farms. There are more aerial shots of contaminated properties that suggest an unfolding real-life version of a horror film with wriggling maggots threatening to overrun a suburban paradise.

Director Leslie along with her husband and co-producer Andrew, begin this squirmy yet mind-blowing documentary on the Wall Street where various whistle-blower types talk about the cloud of greed and negligence that caused the financial meltdown. The documentary is quiet moving and it does not leave viewers assuring that the worst is over… the corrupted gambling hole that Wall Street turned out into in the last 15 years may have emptied many of its players. But if the financial situation stabilizes there is a huge possibility of the operations resume again.

Wow! One of the best documentaries I’ve watched so far! Well, life is a gamble and we’re the players…

Las Vegas Pays Birthday Tribute to Michael Jackson (1958 – 2009)

Monday, August 31st, 2009

Las Vegas Pays Birthday Tribute to Michael Jackson Gone too soon! That’s all I can say about the absence of the World’s Best Entertainer. Every time I hear ‘Man in the Mirror’, ‘Billie Jean’, ‘Bad’, ‘Beat it’ or the number one pop song that hit the US charts the minute it was released and stole every fan’s heart was ‘Thriller’. Thriller was released a month before the year I was born, so you can imagine I grew up listening to the King of Pop. Not only was his music exceptional and his talent beyond comparison, but he stood out as the first most successful black artist on MTV; and the success of ‘Thriller’ made the other black artists gain mainstream recognition.

I was one of this legend’s fans besides the lies and controversies that surrounded him. I loved his music and no one could ever match up to his talent … especially imitate the Moonwalk! But he’s put to rest now and the world still mourns this timeless icon. He promised a ‘comeback’ in July to perform at London, but unfortunately that was short-lived. He passed away on June 25th 2009! Here’s a glimpse of his last rehearsal.

Michael Jackson seemed to love Las Vegas and had performed on several different occasions in the capital of entertainment. Vegas commemorated the legend’s birthday and paid tribute to him. Michael Jackson, the King of Pop was awarded a star on the Palms Casino Resort’s Walk of Fame on August 29th 2009; which would have been the artist’s 51st birthday. His father Joe Jackson and hundreds of other fans watched this commemoration wishing the singer was alive to watch being cemented on the city’s legacy forever. According to emcee Robin Leach, the singer wanted to unveil the Star after his last tour in London with some type of major event.

From his one sequined glove, white socks to his glittery military jackets, Jackson never failed to set the trend, get fashionistas buzzing or steal fan’s hearts. Of course his music will never die and we will continue to love and miss him!

I’m starting with the man in the mirror
I’m asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change

Why Women Gamble?

Monday, August 31st, 2009

Why Women Gamble Women aren’t taking the back seat anymore and are out having a good time gambling. But it can be seen that women aren’t gambling for the same reason the men are. Men take gambling up like it’s a sport, it’s the thrill and the action their out for. Whereas women are out gaming just to take a break from daily life.

So why do women gamble? There are some reasons that are believed to motivate women to gamble.

To escape from the daily drama: Women are believed to use gambling as a means to escape their worries in life. It’s mainly to take their mind of things. Usually they play games that involve no contact with other players, so the slots would be their favorite stress busting haven. Psychologists state that women with low self esteem gamble to because winning gives them pride and satisfaction.

To kill the boredom: Online gambling is a real life saver when women are bored out of their skull.

Entertainment: Some women gamble to entertain themselves. The winning and losing is highly entertaining when they’re on vacation or out with friends. It’s a special kind of thrill. Some women are daredevils and they like the risk. Other women turn to gambling because they need a change of pace in life. And the risk factor involved in gambling gives them some excitement.

Making the Moola: some women gamble to make money, and fast. But they’re usually gambling when they need to lift their finances from the slump and help the family. It’s more of a desperate measure.

Women take up gambling for many reasons, and the fact is they are frequenting the casinos much more than they used to. Casino operators try their best to cater to the needs of women to make their trip to casino worth their while.
