Jawbox Reunited

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

This Tonight, December 8th, Jawbox will make their one and only live appearance, on NBC’s Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. This will be your only chance to see Robbins and company back in action to commemorate the reissue. There won’t be any big, nostalgic reunion tour with accompanying live album/DVD, this is it. Miss it and you’re out of luck. Well, maybe some enterprising soul with throw it up on YouTube or something, that’s a good thing.

JawBox, a punk underground band, emerges in Washington in the year 1994. Led by Government Issue alumnus J. Robbins, Jawbox was post-hardcore before the term was invented; making modernistic use of dischord (which also happened to be the name of their first label) and angularity, they didn’t have much in common with the flannel-flying legions of the era, but their guitars were loud enough to let them sneak into the party. Unfortunately, they broke up shortly after their ‘96 follow-up, but it turns out that the new reissue of the band’s seminal ‘94 release, For Your Own Special Sweetheart, has eventuated the briefest of reunions.
The band seemed like it would’ve been happy to stick around for a couple more numbers, but the session wrapped promptly. There’s no telling whether Jawbox will change its collective mind and prolong its reunion. Either way, I’ll be tuning in tonight.

Season 8’s Biggest Loser Winner

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

It was seven months of competition for the 16 contestants battling for the ultimate title. Rudy and Danny were guaranteed finalist. The decision on whom to be eliminated between  Amanda and Liz depends on public vote. Fortunately for Amanda, she got the final spot.

Before moving on to the finalists weighing in, it was time for some surprises.  Shay didn’t win the second prize, but she was invited to the season 9 finale.  For every pound she loses, Subway will pay her $1,000. Then, Antoine, who started dating Alexandra when they were eliminated from the show, popped the question.

The happy-go-lucky Danny, who was a rock of support to Liz and other contestants this season, won the Biggest Loser Season 8. He was virtually unrecognizable in his new, trim body. He handily edged out his next closest competitor, Rudy, who started at 442 pounds and ended up losing 234 pounds, or 52.94% of his body weight.

Perhaps the biggest surprise of the night wasn’t really a surprise at all: Antoine got down on one knee and proposed to Alexandra, who managed to capture his heart despite being on the ranch just all of one week.

Morgan Freeman-his injured hand

Friday, December 4th, 2009

The 72 year old actor Morgan Freeman was promoting his upcoming film “Prom Night in Mississippi”, but his fans are questioning about the condition of his left hand.

Freeman’s passenger in the car with him Demaris Meyer, was later to be rescued from the car using the jaw’s of life. Freeman was airlifted to a hospital in Memphis. Police ruled out alcohol as a factor in the accident.

He broke his shoulder, arm and elbow in the accident, and suffered nerve damage which he had surgery for.

In his interview just this year in February, Morgan said that he had suffered a lot of nerve damage in his arm through the accident, so that is why his hand was still paralyzed. We all just hope that it gets better soon.
