Here is a great movie (via YouTube) about how the city of Seattle got shafted by David Stern and other NBA brass. The movie has received critical acclaim and is considered one of the best sports documentaries of all-time.

After Undergoing Surgery, Antawn Jamison Likely Done for the Season
Cleveland Cavaliers power forward Antawn Jamison has undergone surgery to repair a broken finger. The surgery will require 5-7 weeks of healing, likely ending Jamison's 2010-11 season.
The Breakdown
Jamison should be dropped in seasonal leagues since the best case scenario is that he returns for the final few games of the season. With Cleveland hopelessly out of contention, it's highly unlikely Jamison plays again this year.
Fantasy owners will want to carefully monitor who soaks up Jamison's playing time. Samardo Samuels seems like the most likely candidate to move into the starting line up, though Semih Erden, Luke Harangody, and Ryan Hollins will also by vying for minutes. Whoever ends up benefiting from Jamison's injury could be a really nice pick up in deep leagues for the stretch run.

Tony Parker Expected to Miss 2-4 Weeks With Calf Strain
San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker is expected to miss the next 2-4 weeks with a strained left calf muscle. He's expected to return in the second half of March.
The Breakdown
George Hill will benefit greatly from Parker's absence as he should step into the starting line up and see additional court time. Hill can contribute in nearly every category and makes for a great addition in standard formats.
Deeper leagues should consider Gary Neal and rookie James Anderson. Both should be in line for increased playing time as a result of Parker's injury. Anderson could be a really nice pick up if Neal, who's suffering the effects of a concussion, is forced to miss a few games.

Katie Price: ‘I still sleep with Alex and I want to talk to a rapist.’
Katie Price: ‘I still sleep with Alex and I want to talk to a rapist.’
This is fun. Everyone is writing about Katie Price still sleeping with Alex Reid and how she thinks Peter Andre is just plain evil.
In an interview published in ES magazine today she has shit to say on just about everything, most of it you can read over there, but be warned it’s thick girl boring.
On Alex Reid:
‘Do I go and f*** Joe Public or do I f*** an ex? Can anyone here tell me that they’ve never f***ed an ex?’
On Plastic surgery:
‘I like my old nose. If I could get it out the cupboard and put it on, then I would’
On Peter Andre:
‘Pete’s probably still in f***ing love with me. That’s the problem. There’s a thin line between love and hate’
via Evening Standard
Where I’m going with this is an altogether scarier place. Katie talks about her dream project, going into prisons and interviewing serial killers and rapists.
On serial killers:
“My main dream – and I’m trying to get Living TV to do it – is to go into prison and interview serial killers, rapists, murderers, psychopaths. I’m so interested in the brain. I read true crime. I’m not interested in any bollocks made-up stuff; it’s got to be true.”
‘I’m interested in the brain???’ This is lost and confused at it’s best. Do I actually need to write anymore or are we all on the same song sheet.

Cheryl Cole: The new American X Factor… helper
Cheryl Cole: The new American X Factor… helper
I don’t know why I’m taking such perverse pleasure in this. Cheryl Cole has been offered the role of Simon’s little helper on American X Factor. How can this be true? It can’t be so, she’s gonna be a judge sitting in the middle seat like J Lo showing off her legs and crying, isn’t she?
Didn’t the News of the World tell us she’d just signed a £10million contract ? (Don’t look at me sweethearts I’ve never spent a Rupert pound in my life.) Wots this? The Mail said something about it too?
Didn’t they all darling, how those pink pooed pantie-etters in Fleet street raced a girls gallop to Cowell’s jockey shorts and back to write for us the very last word in show biz groove. How they preened and sputtered in their made it up finery, and everyone knew of course, from the top of Heat towers to the dark corners of Wapping willies listening room, they all knew, that Cheryl ‘DEFO HAD THAT JUDGES SEAT.’
Everyone except me. Nobody told me anything.
Guess what? She hasn’t got the job. Why… because Fox bosses can’t understand a word she says, they’ve confused her with the tea lady and have stubbornly refused to accept Syco’s protests that nobodies perfect.
In fairness to Fox they said from the very start a nobody isn’t perfect and they wanted a somebody…. a somebody who speaks American.
So Syco has used Cowelery to get Cheryl Cole a job, any job. And the job is – helper !
Like Sinitta, Simon’s little helper.
The only bucks Cheryl Cole can the make from stars in America is probably a Starbucks – to go.

Oscar Disasters: Madonna comes dressed for trade
Oscar Disasters: Madonna comes dressed for trade
I don’t know how many people gave Madonna a eeweee side look at the Vanity fair party last night but you gotta feel for Lourdes having to stand next to her Mom’s bared bottom all night, it must have felt like a hookers day out at the slave market.
What do you say to your 52 year old Mom when she dresses in an outfit last seen in the window of a slut auction. How do you tell her that your little mini ha ha dress IS the limit and not an inch less?
If the restaurant I’m going to has a habit of filling it’s car park with Aston’s and Ferrari’s I arrive by cab. I don’t polish my 30 year Fiat Panda and park right alongside Malcom’s Massarati or Roland’s Rolls Royce.
I can understand Madonna dressing her 52′s this way had the dress code said come dressed for trade, but that could hardly have been written on an invite to one most prestigious events in the show biz calendar…. could it?

Kate Garraway : Flappequette and Vanity
Kate Garraway : Flappequette and Vanity
There’s something mildly horney about a famous woman weeping her heart out on your shoulder. Ever since Kate Garraway lost her dignity and went into a sobbing plea bargaining mess after being pictured smoking whilst pregnant I’ve had a soft spot for her. Women that cry, they get me every time, I couldn’t whisper baby maimer in her ear and kick her out of the car.
Why am I telling you this after all this time? Dunno, I guess when Kate lost her composure all over again, this time outside the Vanity fair party it sort of brought it back. Memories.
She was just telling everyone on Daybreak how Jamie Oliver somehow got an invite to the Vanity Fair party but he wasn’t exactly an A lister when Jamie and Jools happened to drool their way past her. Just like the smoking pregnancy incident Kate instantly lost it, threw dignity to the wind and chased Oliver down like he’d won an Oscar breakfast boner or something. She seemed to be blissfully unaware that her gush rush flappery was going out live on air.
Sadly ITV won’t release the clip so I have no choice but to show you a Kate Garraway upskirt mess instead. Sorry about that.

The Perfect Halter Dress
If you are constantly looking for the perfect halter dress, then you are in luck. The perfect dress is waiting for you right now, and no it is not at some department store or boutique. It does not cost a lot of money, and it is not something that you are going to regret purchasing. In fact, the perfect dress is waiting to be ordered at your leisure, and the place that has the most is the internet. Well, I know, throwing a blanket statement about the internet is odd, but seriously, considering searching for the perfect dress online, and you'll see that more and more people are selling quality, name brand dresses at a fraction of the cost of the department stores.
You have to remember that department stores usually order things in bulk. The bulk of the products are not necessarily the most expensive to them, because they are buying them in such high numbers, people are ending up spending a lot of money, and even if the product in question is on sale, the department store is making money from the mark up. The mark up on these items are specifically designed for the department store to win no matter what, while the consumer pays more money each time. That has to change, and if you watch the online world, it has definitely changed for the better. Many people are discovering that the perfect halter dress is available online in many different stores, and shipping now whenever they are ordered.
Never before has the consumer had such power in the buying and selling of dresses. If you are looking for a top notch halter dress, then you are in major luck. The veil has been lifted over the industry and people of all walks of life are getting their hands on these beautiful dresses for all purposes and are saving money while doing it. They are not only enjoying life in their new dress, they are enjoying the selection and styles that are offered alongside others.
You could try to go to a store in your neighborhood mall and hope that they have your size, or you can simply go online and purchase a halter dress for yourself and wait for it to come to your front door. The great thing here is that if you order online, the chances of the store having your size increases by ten fold! That's right, you can get the exact size you want, in the color you want, with ease if you are willing to put your best foot forward, and be a smart consumer.
Smart consumers come out winning in the end, getting goods like a quality halter dress for a fraction of the cost that you would spend at your local mall or outlet store. It's a great era to be alive in today, especially when you can shop from the comfort of your home with the ease of pushing a button and waiting for the delivery to arrive at your front door.

Fergie Appreciate Beautiful Women
Fergie Appreciate Beautiful Women
Fergie — who is married to Transformers actor Josh Duhamel — says she will always “appreciate” beautiful women. The Black Eyed Peas star says she finds the ladies attractive, but insists she’d never cheat on her husband.
“Oh, I totally celebrate women,’ the Boom Boom Pow hitmaker told Britain’s Cosmopolitan magazine. “Of course, I’m married now so it’s a different story — I’m a one-man woman. But yes I still appreciate beautiful women.”
Fergie, 34, says that she has calmed down since her 20s.
“That was like a different life! I was going to clubs a lot and staying up for days at a time,” she said. “I still love the club scene and seeing what people are wearing, but I’m not taking drugs and damaging myself like I was.”

Freida Pinto Reveals Secret Behind Beauty
Freida Pinto Reveals Secret Behind Beauty
Celebrity Beauty – Freida Pinto – the Slumdog Millionaire actress – has revealed her beauty secrets, which is ‘lots of water and lots of sleep’. Pinto prefers to stay natural when it comes to her looks but says that takes even more care than a ton of make-up.
“I don’t have too many beauty tips because I am not fond of wearing too much make-up but the first would be to drink a lot of water because water really cleanses your system and it keeps you fresh and your eyes looking fresh, I also recommend adding a lot of fruit and vegetables to your diet and not making it too meat centric. The next one would be sleep well – sleep is as important as food and water and keeps you looking fresh the next day. So if you get a good 8 hours sleep it always helps. It all still takes work.” said the 25-year-old.

Britney Spears Hates Her Appearance
Britney Spears Hates Her Appearance
Celebrity Beauty – According to Britain’s Look magazine, Britney Spears – the Toxic singer – admits she doesn’t like the way she looks. Spears admits her perfectionist nature means she’s rarely satisfied with what she sees in the mirror.
“I’m such a perfectionist, which means I’m never satisfied, I always strive for things to be better. I think you can be happy with the person on the inside but on the outside you’re always striving for more. But that’s how you end up driving yourself crazy.” the singer said.
Britney Spears says she can’t understand why she’s considered a sex symbol.
“I don’t see myself like that at all, I don’t know why. To me, someone who is sexy is someone with confidence, who carries themselves properly and is comfortable in their own skin. It’s very flattering but at the same time I think it’s sexier when you don’t try and you’re just yourself. We all like to feel sexy.” she said.

“The body I have isn’t going to change, so I just try to stay as healthy as I can. The older I get, the more comfortable I am with it. I still have ‘fat days’ when I have to wear baggy T-shirts with sweatpants though!”
Hayden Panettiere recently revealed that she has been drinking wine with her meals since the age of eight.
“I was raised Italian and we always had diluted glasses of red wine at dinner time from about the age of 8,” she said. That’s just what kids do in Italy. It wasn’t ever something bad.”

This was said by a photographer of The Sun, Arthur Edwards, who observed the development or in this case the weight loss that occurred in Prince William’s fiancees. Previously, Kate was sized 10, and is now down to 6.
The same thing happened in late prospective mother-in-law, Lady Diana, when she was about to marry the father of William, Prince Charles. At that time, The Sun had time to give advise to Diana to stop losing weight, which will also be submitted to Kate.
“The Sun gives advice to Diana to stop losing weight. And I will do the same to her. She’s naturally beautiful and there is no point of losing weight again,” said Edwards. Yep, that’s right, who wants to walk the aisle in just skin and bones?

“I am trying to grow it but it’s slow, it’s taking a while obviously, If I want to keep acting then it’s more flexible for me to have it longer for different roles, it’s quite a specific cut. I’m kind of looking forward to getting to a cute little bob stage.” ” she said.
Emma Watson — who has earned millions playing Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movie franchise — recently admitted she hasn’t got a clue how she wants to spend her money.
“I have way too much money to know what to do with it,” she said.
“I bought a laptop, and a Toyota Prius when I passed my driving test, but that’s the most expensive things I’ve spent my money on outside my education.”
Emma Watson thinks it’s funny when people recognize her on the London Underground.
“The funny thing is people look at me and go, ‘Is that the girl from Harry Potter?’ And then they shake their heads and say: ‘No, it can’t be, she’s on public transport.’ And I’m sat there secretly thinking: ‘Ha Ha that’s funny’,” she said.

Short Haircut Styles
Hairstylists have been trained to help clients find the perfect cut, even when the client may be unsure about the type of style that they are looking for. The cut can be dependent on the time that the client would like to spend styling the hair, as well as the type of hair. The stylist will ask many questions that can help to determine if the hairstyle is indeed the right cut for the client.
Short hairstyles can give you a fresh modern look that will never go out of style, and at the same time, will also be more manageable, and a breeze to style. In show off short hairstyles, you have a lot to choose from. Be it the Alyssa Milanos cropped pixie cut or the new Winona Ryder bob hairstyle, you can really experiment a lot with your hair by cutting it real short.
