Ten Famous Fans Who Could Be Involved With Doctor Who
Since its resurrection in 2005, Doctor Who has quickly re-emerged as one of televisions most loved shows. Public signs of affection for 'nuWho' are increasingly common; from Muse's opening titles influenced "Resistance", to the Police Box by the front door of number 26 Ramsay Street (so I'm told) and the list of celebrities queuing for a part in the new series is longer than a certain Time Lord's scarf.
While a number of celebrities have already fulfilled their dreams of participating in this global phenomena, be it behind the scenes or centre stage, the list of known celebrity fans yet to play their part makes for equally impressive reading – begging the question as to whether more confirmed famous Whovians are destined to steer the ship or grace the hallowed console room in future.
Here are just some of the contenders, arranged for your delectation in a Top of the Pops-style reverse-rundown.
Cue the CCS instrumental version of Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love"!
10) Benedict Cumberbatch
Personally I think Matt Smith is utterly brilliant, but one day, preferably in the very distant future, he will inevitably become part of 'Who' history. Try as I may, I cannot imagine a more worthy successor than Benedict Cumberbatch. Following his utterly mesmerising display as Sherlock, Benedict has leaped to the top of many Who fans most wanted list – and resisting the temptation of a cross over has surely left the door open for the Sherlock star in the future.
9) John Culshaw
John's impersonation of Tom Baker is legendary and keeping Who in the public eye while the franchise prepared to reboot deserves a pat on the back. John has previously appeared in the audio range, including standing in for the legend himself, but is there a place for him in the TV series?
8) Bob Dylan
The Panini Complete Seventh Doctor reported that legend Dylan had been kind enough to allow the free use of his music for the opening of Season 25, however it was never used. To be honest, if it failed to make an appearance in the era of the Kandyman and Ken Dodd, I think its safe to assume this is a non-starter.
7) Craig Ferguson
Surely a TV presenter can't make the transition – can he? Well Reggie Yates had a brief but credible stint in the new series as Martha's brother, so why ever not? Considering Craig's open support for the franchise and his role in 'bigging up' Doctor Who Stateside, I think he's at least worthy of a cameo.
And let's not forget the many genuine TV presenters playing themselves over the years!
6) Peter Jackson
If he ever gets bored of milking the Tolkien cash cow, maybe Mr. Jackson would fancy a bit of Who?A look at the casting of his famous trilogy betrays a man who loves his British actors, and the presence of one Sylvester McCoy in the new movies is bound to pull in the Doctor Who fans.
If nothing else, I reckon it'd be a good way to break the Hobbit…
5) Matthew Bellamy of Muse
I recall that the release of "Resistance" caused a lot of confusion on the radio – in some quarters, there was speculation that this WAS the new title song. Fortunately, Murray Gold was here to stay; it's not that I don't like this song, but 'Who' scores are much more than just title sequences these days.
Considering Muse's Olympic track and their reworking of the James Bond theme tune, this may have been a lucky escape. However, Vincent and the Doctor fans must surely been impressed by Athlete's wonderful contribution "Chances", so who knows, Muse may still have a chance of their own.
4) Meat Loaf
No chance – when I think of Meat Loaf, I cant help picturing Brian Blessed's King Yrcanos; the guy who deprived us of the incomparable Peri in a marriage less likely than Michael Douglas and Catharine Zeta Jones. Personally, I'd have thought the sight of an amorous sweaty Yeti lurking towards her with a half eaten box of Milk Tray, would have seen Peri disappear like a… Bat out of Hell?
3) Matt Groening
Sightings of the Doctor are a fairly frequent occurrence in Springfield and the Simpsons creator would surely be open to some kind of cross over. Fans of Futurama will know that Matt has clearly demonstrated a passion for sci-fi and I personally think Mr. Burns would make an excellent opponent… Ian McDiarmid come on down!
2) Trey Parker
As co-creator of South Park, Trey is at least partly responsible for the "They Killed Kenny?" craze; a character who was possibly the inspiration behind Rory (now he's dead, now he's not) Williams. Though Doctor Who has often been recognised for pushing the boundaries, I'm not sure if the BBC are quite ready for this level of controversy… well actually, if ever there were a time…?
1) Her Majesty The Queen
Okay it was a tabloid exclusive from an unnamed source, but the story of the Queen ordering Doctor Who box sets for summer night viewing in Balmoral is enough to make a Weeping Angel smile.
With the Doctor no stranger to the Palace, the chances of a return visit are surely a possibility. I appreciate a cameo is a long shot, but nothing ventured… who'd have picked Her Majesty as a Bond girl before London 2012? Could the British monarch undo the memories of her long-shot lookalikes in Silver Nemesis and Voyage of the Dead and make an appearance herself?
An impressive list of names – but which ones would you like to see play their part?
11 Responses to Ten Famous Fans Who Could Be Involved With Doctor Who
A couple more:::
Big Bang Theory Creators and writers Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady
Will "Wesley Crusher" Wheaton
Mythbuster's Adam savage (greatest video EVER is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjtzib0G9Rs )
Mythbuster's Grant Imahara (cue up to 4:20 at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URkOUclkYX8 )
Whoever writes "Leverage" (see http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1103987/trivia)
Whoever writes "Criminal Minds' (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AffH69Ktik)
Rowan Atkinson, Richard E. Grant (who could possibly play an older 11th doctor), and i kind of recall Steve Martin mentioning DW in some interview years ago (can't find it in a search however);
And i'm sure there are many many more out there.
Yes to all of those and since Dr Who is now mentioned in prime TV shows in the US , how about a dedicated episode from either The Simpsons , Family Guy, Futurama , Big Bang etc ?
Tom hanks recently gave an interview where he talked about Who.
Get him on it……Now.
I've always wondered why the powers that be at BBC do not do more to actively pursue these people. Seriously, as soon as Peter Jackson mentioned it, they should have called said "Dude, whenever you have a free couple of days, weekend, holiday, whatever, we'll make it work".
Mark Rylance – doesn't do much TV but acclaimed theatre actor.
Madonna- Could easily play the Rani ..manipulative and determined to get her way.
Sofie Gråbøl – Any part, just get her on the programme ASAP and preferably in a recurring role.
Eric Cantona – `Does a Time Lord that is caged in a time bubble sing as sweetly as Time Lord that
is free' ?
John Hurt – Come on , they have to bag someone of his stature for the fiftieth surely?
Billy Connolly is a big fan and was actually considered for the 8th Doctor, before it eventually went to Paul McGann. He has stated recently he loved the show, always admired it and would love to appear in it. He was also short listed and available to play the DJ in Revelation of the Daleks.
The Big Yin as Omega?
Oh and don't forget Seth McFarlane, the creator of Family Guy they have a had a couple of Who references.
Iron Maiden are also long time fans of all sci-fi and fantasy, not forgetting the fact Bruce Dickinson owns a Dalek, refers to Who in interviews (i.e. that Maiden has had as many regenerations as the Doctor). How about a cameo of Eddie?
How cool,,, a cgi Eddy! That'll get people's attention.
I mean, i saw that fish thing in Men In Black 3,,,, the one that's Spandrel's avatar on the forum. I don't know what it's from though ,,,, Something British i'm sure
Aside from Muse and Bob Dylan, if there is one band that sits with Doctor Who it's Pink Floyd. Nick Mason states in his book that they used equipment similar to the BBC Radiophonic Workshop used. Then of course there is "One of These Days" and "Sheep" which are loosely based on the theme tune. Not forgetting that Douglas Adams "hitchhiked" round Europe with David Gilmour, gave the name of "The Division Bell" and played acoustic guitar at one of the Earls Court shows in 1994.

July 2010 Rescue Blog
by Tim Ajax, Director
Born Free USA Primate Sanctuary
Some people monkey around a little, some people monkey around a lot, and then there's Tim. He's a prince among primates, presiding over hundreds of fellow bipeds in the often-brutal Texas outdoors. There's no ape escape for Tim and his crew, but no matter. They love to help macaques, baboons and vervets live out their lives with as much freedom as possible. And like peeling a banana, Tim's blogs take you to the good stuff inside — with a steady supplement of Texas weather updates, of course!
Welcome Home
This summer has turned out to be abnormally humid, although the temperatures have been comparatively moderate. Everything remains lush from the rains we received from hurricane Alex and a tropical storm that followed shortly after. While the Rio Grande Valley suffered from flooding, we made it through with a few inches of rain which hit at just the right time to keep everything growing. All-in-all, the conditions are just right for our residents, which include some exciting new arrivals!
In addition to be voted onto our adoption list, Khy is now in a very large structure within the main 56 acre enclosure. Many of the snow monkeys have come to visit over the last few days and several continue to hang out, appearing to be very interested in him. In the wild juvenile males are often the ones to adopt an orphaned baby and if the little one has been weaned then he or she may stand a good chance of surviving. Fortunately Khy doesn't have to worry about that and has made friends in his new location. We'll continue to keep a close eye out to see how things progress.
We received a young rhesus female named Poco who was kept as a pet. Since she's very human-oriented we're going to try her and Tamae together to see if they'll get along, being from similar circumstances.
Of course the big news is the arrival of 15 male long-tailed macaques who came from a laboratory that closed. Part of a larger group of 55 monkeys, Born Free has made a life-long commitment to these youngsters who average about 5 years of age and can live to be as old as 30 years. We currently have them housed in a climate-controlled room in cages that we roll out every morning to enable them to experience the sights and sounds of the sanctuary. They are particularly interested in the other monkeys! We're acclimatizing them slowly since they have been in a controlled environment their entire lives. This also means a slow introduction to a more natural diet of fruit and other varied produce along with the standard monkey biscuits.
The goal is to construct a large introduction pen within the existing 5-acre long-tailed enclosure where they can have time to form their own bonds and also get familiar with the existing long-tails. If everything goes to plan their new life will be realized when we release them into the lush enclosure where they'll be free to climb trees, dig in the dirt, comb the grass for insects and be with their friends. Building the introduction pen will not be cheap so if you would like to help give our new arrivals the best life possible then please visit our donation page and make a gift today.
Until next time…

There is such a flow of information in the week before the Super Bowl that it's sometimes hard to separate myth from reality. Events of the season are spun a certain way, politically correct answers are given and history is revised a bit.
So here are five things you might read or hear this week that are not entirely true.
1. The Anquan Boldin dust-up on the sideline last week means nothing.
Taken by itself, the incident wouldn't be a big deal, although I doubt Ken Whisenhunt was crazy about his offensive coordinator being distracted during what might have been the most important drive in team history. But it's just another sign, in my opinion, that Boldin isn't happy in Arizona. So was his decision to leave quickly after the game. While safety Adrian Wilson was giving tearful interviews on the field, Boldin was leaving quickly. I don't dismiss that contrast as meaningless.
2. Coaches benched Edgerrin James knowing he would be contributing this much late in the year.
No, the running back's job was Tim Hightower's to lose. And he lost it. I'm not criticizing Hightower. He's a rookie and he's still learning and he has a bright future. The problems with the running game weren't all his fault. But he was dancing a bit much and taking too many losses. James made some plays in the disastrous New England game, and it was obvious he needed to play more.
3. Edge didn't complain.
There is no doubt James could have caused a greater disturbance. But he didn't exactly keep his mouth shut, either. Neither did agent, Drew Rosenhaus, who let everyone know that James wanted out of Arizona.
4. The practices the week after the New England game were like training camp.
Some players have said that, and they were more physical. Whisenhunt put his teams in pads for the entire workout. But the coach isn't stupid. It's not like he implemented "Oklahoma" drills and guys were slamming into each other. He changed the routine up enough to make his point to the players.
5. The Kurt Warner e-mail making the rounds.
It's old, from 2002, and starts with Kurt meeting wife Brenda while both were working at a grocery story. Don't believe it. Some facts are right. Kurt and Brenda are married and have seven kids. But the story contains so many errors, it's hard to know where to begin correcting them. Snopes.com did. Check it out. It's hard to see why you would embellish the Kurt Warner story.

The extent of Garrett's death has been explored to it's fullest. He was killed due to what he knew, and with Wilden's death being explored, his ability to murder may come with a few answers.
Marlene King had said it herself, which is why I posted it. They have been wrong about their own writing in the past, so I apologize.
5 SPOILERS: Pretty Little Liars, Season 5, Episode 5
DO NOT READ FURTHER IF YOU DO NOT WANT SPOILERS. Read at your own risk. Catch all new episodes of Pretty Little Liars on Tuesday, June 10, 2014. Celebrating 100 episodes!
01. Hanna and Spencer will share their first "A" investigation moment. Note, a Hanna and Spencer scene has never been done in Pretty Little Liars.
02. Caleb will return to Rosewood.
03. A big mystery that has been going on for almost two seasons will come to an end. Although it'll raise more questions, it will bring closure to the PLLs.
04. Ali and Caleb might find romance… together. Bryan Holdman wrote on Twitter, "Ali and Caleb sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G…"
05. Hanna and Spencer will be the one's to decode the two season-long mystery.
If that had been said, I would have definitely posted it here. I post all confirmed spoilers on the page. I'm still a believer in Courtney, but I do think they've twisted up the story. If there is a chance it's not Ali, I think Spencer might be next in line. Like Courtney, she's had her crazy times, and her parent's are more than sketchy. However, with all that's going on, I think they would've told her.

Yu-Ling Cheng to leave the PSO
She was the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra's Director of Marketing.
Here is the statement by the PSO:
It is with mixed emotions that I share Yu-Ling Cheng is leaving the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra (PSO). Over the last five weeks, we have been working together on a smooth transition for her departure which is Friday, March 15th.
Yu-Ling joined the PSO in 2004 as Director of Marketing before being promoted to Vice President of Audience Development and Sales in 2010. She has worked with nearly everyone on staff at one time or another, supporting her department's goals as well as institutional goals. Highlights of her tenure include leading her team in increasing earned revenue and average ticket price, implementing dynamic pricing, making Heinz Hall accessible through the KDKA Open Houses, overseeing the launch of social media. Through the Executive MBA program at the Wharton Business School, Yu-Ling completed two independent studies for the PSO, the first in human resources and the second in dynamic pricing. She also co-chaired (with Kevin DeLuca and Jessica Schmidt) the staff campaign for the Commitment to ExcellenceCampaign, which successfully reached 100% participation.
On behalf of the Board and staff, I want to thank Yu-Ling for all her contributions and wish her the very best.

Chapter 4: An Interview with Mister Wood
[View Online]
Author's Note: Hello all! Here is the fourth chapter to this story. I just thought I should let you know that I've made some edits as suggested by you guys, so if you notice anything off (like Edie now having an enchanted two-way mirror instead of a television), it's all been re-worked :)
Gorgeous chapter image by angelic. @ tda!
"You have got to be effing kidding me!"
"Edie, that's so brilliant!"
"--really bleedin' famous player--"
"--going to look so good on your CV--"
Dean and Seamus have always been beyond supportive mates to me, though they are much more verbal about it after six pints each. It doesn't hurt that Italy, the team they were rooting for, beat Spain in the football match. I am sitting on my sofa with a congratulatory bottle of ale (the only one they managed to set aside for me) and beaming brighter than I ever have. Seamus and Dean take turns alternatively punching my shoulder, ruffling my hair, hugging me and then shoving me. Men.
I completely missed the football match because I ended up staying at Le Chat Noir even after Rose went home for the night, mentioning something about a guy. I stayed for an hour poring over the notes in the folder, some of which were actually accurate. Apparently Rose hadn't done much research as there wasn't a photograph of Wood to speak of. But I wouldn't be going into the interview completely empty-handed; my obsession with Quidditch has allowed me to glean some information over the years.
Seamus sits back, smacking a hand over his forehead. "I can't believe you get to interview Oliver Wood!"
"What's that supposed to mean?" I fire. "Just because I'm a woman doesn't mean I'm any less passionate about Quid--"
"Jesus Christ, Lennox, I didn't mean because you've got lady-bits!" Seamus interrupts incredulously. "It's just that I've been Wood's biggest fan since Hogwarts, and have you ever even spoken with him?"
I try to remember. Honestly, I can't even picture what Oliver Wood looks like. From my calculations he was four years ahead of me, which means he graduated before I had really even gotten into Quidditch. And being from another House didn't help much either.
"Well, no," I mumble. "But that doesn't have anything to do with being a good journalist."
Seamus ignores me, still on his Oliver Wood rant, "To think we were in school with the tosser, I mean, I never really got to talk Quidditch with him! I tried, but he always just kind of stared at me funny..."
Dean raises an index finger, squinting. "That's because you followed him everywhere and couldn't formulate a proper sentence around him. I'm pretty sure he thought you had the hots for him."
I snort, "Yeah, didn't you follow him into the Gryffindor locker room before a match once?"
"Even though he was showering?" Dean adds.
Seamus throws up his hands. "All right, all right, yes, yes, let's not waste time dwelling on the past, mates!" Dean and I erupt into laughter, but Seamus is just studying me with an odd gleam in his eye. "So, where exactly is this interview again?"
"The Hog's Head at ten. Nobody will be there to get in the way," I answer suspiciously. Then I realize why he's looking at me like that. "Seamus, no."
"Come on Edie, please!" he begs. "I just want to get a look at him!"
Dean quirks an eyebrow. "And you're sure you don't have the hots for him."
"Bugger off!" Seamus beams him in the forehead with a bottle cap and says, without missing a beat, "It'll be perfect. It can be just a casual run-in."
"Seamus, nobody is going to believe that you just happened to be in Hogsmeade, almost ten years after you graduated, the day that a Quidditch player you used to stalk is visiting," I say. "Besides, I'll be nervous enough. I don't need you staring at us from across the room on top of everything."
"Tell him, sister," Dean says, clinking bottles with me. Seamus grumbles something and says no more on the matter, apparently quelled.
I take the last swig of my beer. It's getting far too late--I should have been in bed hours ago, though I know sleep will be hard to find even now. Happiness is still bubbling up inside me as I rise to my feet, stretching my arms widely. With a loud yawn I say, "You two had better stay here again." Then I point a stern finger at Seamus and add, "No drinking and Apparating." The last time that happened, the poor bugger Splinched himself and had to magically regrow one of his toes.
"I know, I know," he mumbles and I see him eyeing his left foot.
I am still wearing my stupid grin as I brush my teeth, change into pyjamas (instead of falling asleep in whatever I'm already wearing, like usual) and carefully select an outfit for tomorrow morning (rather than scraping dirty clothes off the floor). When I trek back to the kitchen for a glass of water some time later, I notice that my small den/dining room/rubbish storage area is still lit up by the two-way mirror. Seamus is snoring loudly, splayed out on the larger of the two sofas, but Dean is watching a Muggle football match. I fill my glass with water and return to sit beside him.
"I can't believe this," I say happily after some silence.
"I know, like Ukraine could actually beat Italy," Dean says, though we both know what I'm talking about. He rests his arm on the sofa behind me, "I'm happy for you, Lennox."
Although I've always been awkward with sentiment, I manage, "Well it's all because of your brilliant work landing me the internship. So thanks. It's been interesting, to say the least, but this whole article would never have happened without it."
Dean laughs. "Well, don't thank me yet, Wood might turn out to be a complete arse."
"True!" I acknowledge, though neither of us is honestly worried. After my glass of water is finished, and it's late enough that I may actually be able to sleep, I rise to my feet. "Well goodnight, Mister Thomas," I say.
"I doubt I'll get any rest with that racket going on." He looks at Seamus, who releases a grizzly-like snore. "But all the same, goodnight Miss Lennox."
It crosses my mind to ask if Dean would rather sleep in my room with me, but something about it seems a bit off. I suppose we just haven't reached that point in our bro-lationship. With a parting grin I head for my room and crawl into bed. And for the first time in what feels like forever, I drift off to sleep genuinely pleased with the way my life's heading.
Unfortunately, the pleasant feeling only lasts for the six hours that I am unconscious. The morning starts off when I awake thirty minutes later than planned. Then as I am getting ready, I notice that the dress I laid out has an enormous hole in its skirt from when I once drunkenly dropped a lit cigarette on myself. I had totally forgotten about it. In a flurry of panic I rush into the living room and try to awake Seamus, who is surprisingly good with clothes-mending charms. But even grabbing his shoulders and shaking them doesn't budge him. That man has got to be the world's heaviest sleeper.
I tear through my wardrobe, finally coming across a blue dress that is both clean and modest, and throw it on. Then, just when I am about to Disapparate I smear my mascara everywhere, which Dean has to awkwardly wipe away because I don't have time to run back to the mirror. Finally I am grabbing my shoulder bag when I realize that I can't locate a quill left right or center, even with Summoning Spells, and HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO INTERVIEW SOMEBODY WITHOUT A BLOODY QUILL?!
"Just take mine, you'll be alright," Dean assures with a somewhat worried look. He hands me the expensive artist's quill I bought him. After blurting a thank-you I turn on the spot, and with a loud crack I am finally gone.
It turns out there is an absolute downpour in Hogsmeade. And I have just Apparated right into the thick of it.
With the most grace I think I have ever mustered in my life, I leap over a puddle and land beneath the awning of The Hog's Head. I'm only upset that nobody is there to witness it. Panicking about the time, I quickly mutter a charm and warm air jets from the tip of my wand. Doing the best I can without a mirror, I dry my hair and clothes so that I no longer resemble a lake monster. When I am finally settled I check my watch.
10:02. Shit.
I open the door and poke my head in, but there is only the barkeep and a very old witch already drinking sherry. At least I've beaten Oliver Wood. I continue to stand beneath the awning, arms crossed, nervously drumming my fingers. With each splash of footsteps through the puddles my head jerks up excitedly, but it's never him. It occurs to me that I really should have asked Rose for a photograph--obviously he doesn't know what I look like. I check my watch again. 10:16.
I decide to head inside and claim a small table, ordering what turns out to be a bucket-sized mug of coffee. No wonder Rubeus Hagrid came here so often, they serve his portion sizes. The mug is almost too big for me to lift with two hands. Not the tastiest of brews, but I ended up not having time for my planned stop to Alchemy Coffee with my hectic morning. On the table I neatly spread out a roll of parchment, Dean's quill, a small silvery recording orb that I nicked from Witch Weekly to play with forever ago, and the giant folder of Rose's notes.
Time passes. Soon it's 10:45 and I'm running out of excuses for this Oliver Wood.
I am rereading the notes for what feels like the thousandth time when I hear the clang of the rusty bell above the door. I glance up and see, to my horror, Viktor Krum striding in. My stomach lurches--I do not want him to recognize the girl who kicked him out of the pub last night. I grab one of Rose's parchments and hold it so that it covers my face.
After a moment I dare to peek around the corner of the parchment. Krum is standing near the bar, wearing those daft sunglasses even though it's rainy for one, and two he's indoors. Why do all celebrities think that the rules of common sense don't apply to them? Then I realize that he's probably covering up the black eye from last night's pub fight. I wonder what he's doing here and absentmindedly set the parchment back down. But the longer I watch him, the clearer it becomes that he's waiting for somebody.
But who?
Then, several things happen at once. Viktor Krum turns in my direction and does a double-take when he sees me. At the same time I snatch up a page of the Daily Prophet and hide behind it. The bell clangs again, the door is opening, and I see a very hungover Seamus trying his best to look casual as he saunters in. Though I am beyond furious to see him here, I don't have time to think about it because Viktor Krum is making his way over to me.
Bugger, bugger, bugger, he recognizes me.
Then I actually read the paper in front of my face and am confronted with a photograph of the very same person. But this article is not about Viktor Krum, or Bulgaria. It's about the Keeper for Puddlemere United, Oliver Wood. And the resemblance is unmistakable.
No way.
The man who claimed to be Viktor Krum is almost to my table. He is taking off his sunglasses. The name I am too horrified to say is on my lips, threatening to spill over, when suddenly Seamus exclaims it for me.
"Oliver Wood!" He throws his hands up in the worst mock-surprise I have ever seen.
Wood forgets me and turns toward Seamus, clearly confused. I am thankful for the distraction because I am incapable of producing more than a gurgling sound at this point. This cannot be happening. This cannot be happening. This cannot be happening! Wood looks perplexed as Seamus makes his way over, deliberately not meeting my eyes. When the Keeper struggles to shake Seamus's hand I realize that he is still a bit drunk from the night before.
Everything makes sense. Wood looked so familiar because he bloody plays for one of my top-three Quidditch teams. And he punched out the man who cheered for Bulgaria because he had committed heresy against Puddlemere. Even more shocking: Wood put on a fake accent all night. That's why his friends were laughing every time he spoke!
What a little twat!
"Finnegan?" he mumbles uncertainly and Seamus looks like he's going to faint. I can hear Wood's true Scottish accent clearly now, and drop Dean's quill to the table before I snap it in half. He furrows his brow. "What are you...?"
"Yeah! Seamus Finnegan!" he quickly interjects. "Fancy running into you here, I had no idea!"
I realize that my legs have pulled me to a standing position and that I am stomping over to break up whatever is about to happen. Seamus claps Wood on the back, who towers over him, and aggressively shakes his hand. By this time I have reached their little reunion and am standing dangerously close to Seamus, arms crossed. He is acting as though I'm not there although my nose is almost touching the side of his face. Oliver is glancing back and forth between us, very perplexed.
"Somebody get this man a pint!" Seamus calls to the bar. "On me!"
I move so that I am standing in-between them, forcing myself into Seamus's line of vision. "It's eleven o'clock in the morning, Finnegan," I say acidly. I only use his last name when I am really, completely furious with him. I see a worried look flicker across his face.
But Oliver Wood just shrugs. "I'll take a pint."
My arms drop to my sides and I stare at him incredulously. Not only does he arrive almost an hour late and still drunk from the night before, but he wants to keep drinking?
Seamus has regained control of himself. "Of course! Right away!" he practically giggles and hurries off to find a suitable beer.
Wood watches after him as though he's still not entirely sure how they know each other.
Thrusting a hand aggressively towards him, I say through gritted teeth, "Edie Lennox. I'll be interviewing you today." He smells like a liquor cabinet as he studies my face.
"What happened to Rose?" he asks.
I furrow my brow. "She didn't tell you?"
Wood shakes his head no and yelps in pain when I accidentally crush his hand with mine. This is really just shaping up to be a marvellous day. "Rose isn't writing it anymore. I am."
Seamus returns with two pints, all smiles, and passes one to Wood. I fix the Irishman with a very serious look. Then Wood says, "Cheers!" and completely drains his glass.
Seamus and I are both staring, me in horror and Seamus as though he had just found his future husband. Wood wipes the foam from his lip and smiles pleasantly, as if nothing unusual has just happened. Seamus releases an elated little chirp.
"Right." Immediately I put my hands on Seamus's shoulders, forcing him to turn around. "So nice of you, thank you," I growl and shove as hard as I can. He stumbles forwards and shuffles dejectedly to a corner table with his pint. His eavesdropping will be distracting, but there's nothing that can be done about it now.
Later, his arse is mine.
"So, shall we?" says Wood from behind me.
I turn around, arms crossed. He is looking at me as though this kind of thing happens every day. "Do you seriously not recognize me?" I fire.
A nervous look crosses his face. "Oh, erm," he shuffles his feet and winces. After a moment he manages, "So are you...the girl from last night?"
"Yup," I say flatly.
Wood massages the corners of his bloodshot eyes. No doubt he is incredibly hungover right now. "I'm sorry," he says, and he sounds like he really means it. I notice that he's still in the same clothes from the night before. He looks so pathetic, with his hair tousled and his black eye, that I almost want to forgive him.
Then he says, "I didn't mean to leave, I just figured, well, you were asleep, and didn't want to have an awkward morning. Bit ironic now, isn't it?"
My jaw has dropped.
"Because...we're having an awkward morning anyway..." he elaborates as though I didn't quite catch his meaning.
"I'm not the 'girl from last night,'" I make air quotations. "I'm the barkeep from last night who kicked you and your ridiculous friends out!"
Oliver Wood stares at me blankly. "Who?"
"Really?" An indignant scoff escapes me and I am actually shouting now, "You told me your name was Viktor Krum!" I count off on my fingers his list of atrocities from the night before, "And then you pissed all over the girls' loo, not to mention threw up in it, and then you kissed me, and then you punched a guy out!"
Oliver's face has gone from normal, to pale white, to beet red by the time I have finished. Clearly he remembers nothing. It seems he was even more laggered last night than I'd thought. From behind me, Seamus is cackling away and pounding his first on the table. I hadn't told him or Dean anything except that Viktor Krum had come into the pub.
I whirl around, whipping out my wand, "And don't even get me started on you, Finnegan!"
"Oi!" the barman yells, shaking me from my rage. "If yer goin' teh do that, take it ou'side!"
Suddenly I remember that we are in public. I push my hair away from my burning face. My first official interview for Witch Weekly is not going how I'd planned, to say the least. Slowly I regain my composure, and the barman settles with tossing me a warning look before continuing to watch us like a Muggle soap opera.
Wood puts a hand over his face in humiliation. "So," he mutters. "I really did all that?"
He groans. "This is certainly a first."
"I'm sure it is."
A long silence passes between us and I imagine going back to the table, collecting my things, and leaving (but not before giving Seamus a sucker punch to the back of the head.) Then I remember Lisa and her granola-eating, mountain-climbing, organic-hemp-vegan-yoga breathing exercises, and inhale deeply. This is my one shot at a journalism career, I think. One shot. I exhale and see that Wood is still looking equal parts drunk and humiliated.
"So, the interview," he says uncertainly.
"The interview," I repeat. There is a silence and I say at last, "Let's just get this over with."
Wood's shoulders fall in a relieved way. I don't offer any further conversation as he lags behind me like to the table. I gesture more violently than intended to the empty chair across from mine, and he plops down. The sudden movement causes him to grab his head in pain and release a pathetic groan. Yeah, he's definitely feeling the repercussions of last night. If I were a nicer person I would take pity on him, but today I'm not. So instead I take my seat and stare darkly across the table as he massages his temples.
"You don't have any pain-relieving potions, do you?" he asks weakly.
"No," I say rather sternly. Then I push my tureen of coffee across the table. "Just drink some of that, it should help."
As he miserably obeys, a thought strikes me. Maybe last night had actually been the perfect back-story to an expose article--the kind that Mr. Ward would want me to write. The kind that Witch Weekly publishes about celebrities. Washed-up Quidditch heartthrob Oliver Wood black-out drunk, making a complete arse of himself in public. Kissing a complete stranger. Even masquerading as a different person. The readers of Witch Weekly will eat this bollocks up.
I decide right then to leave nothing out.
After a quick glance to be sure that he isn't looking, I tap the recording orb with my index finger and place it behind the pathetic centerpiece of wilted flowers. A rather wicked smirk spreads across my freckled face. It looks like I'll be getting my story after all.
"So. Wood," I say and his eyes meet mine. "Why don't you start by telling me what you do remember from last night."
Author's Note: So there you have it, official interactions with Oliver! Unless you count when he was pretending to be Krum... Please let me know what you think, I do so love hearing from readers! Did you like it? Hate it? And did anyone actually fall for my little trick?

"Feminine" 52/13 (by Jeanique)
I'm not happy with this.
Funny thing is. When I came up with this theme I had a picture in mind. Bold, Sexy, Naked, Powerful, yet Soft and warm. Proud to show my curves.
But while shooting, with pretty make-up and everything I turned out not to be this bold but more important, confident. I just couldn't find the right pose, angle, the powerful look in my eyes, I felt naked, 'cause I was. And it's not that I'm ashamed of my body, it's just not the body I want, like.
So here is me, trying feminine, not bold, more like fragile, but yet, I think it's soft. But scared. And I didn't want scared, at all. So. Yes. Well. Lets save this for another time shall we?

Senior Living - November 19
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. --John 14:27
All of us experience undue stress. Stress is that subtle, yet building, pressure that robs us of our well-being, peaceful state of mind, and sometimes our health. How many times have you thought to yourself, "I've got too much to do and too little time to do it!"?
Stress affects us all, although it may seem that some have developed immunity to it. In reality they have simply learned how to handle it successfully. It should be our goal to learn to control the stress we face. If we don't, then our bodies are likely to experience changes. Stress affects the brain, the gastrointestinal tract, the skin, your sleep habits, your immune system, and most importantly, your spiritual life.
Everyone feels the pressures of life, whether they want to or not. But you don't have to live life as though you've been hit by an 18-wheeler when you lay your head on your pillow every night. To rid your life of stress, claim the promises of Scripture. The Bible says, "You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you" (Isaiah 26:3).
In addition, you'll want to refrain from telling yourself you shouldn't be relaxing when you finally get the chance to do so. Size down your responsibilities and just say no when you begin to feel an incredible amount of stress. Create some quiet time—possibly even in a very quiet place—to read Scripture, pray, get alone with God, and write out your feelings. And most importantly, plan some quality for yourself—alone.
PRAYER CHALLENGE: If you are feeling extreme stress in your life, ask God to help you relieve it and rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul.

I love Tim Gunn. Back when Project Runway was still on Bravo and I watched it religiously, he was half the reason I tuned in. He seemed like such a polite man who had a killer fashion sense and a heart of gold.
I have a bone to pick with him right now, though. Tim Gunn -- sweet, kind Tim Gunn -- is suggesting that we should never wear our workout clothes in public. Actually, he's not suggesting it -- he's demanding it. He recently said to Shape magazine, "Gym clothes in public? Never! Change at the gym!"
Change at the gym? That's one of the craziest things I've ever heard, Tim Gunn. What planet are you living on? Do you think I just have a few extra hours lying around all the time? And gym showers are g-r-o-s-s!
I don't think Tim gets it. Frankly, I don't think he understands what this entails because I don't think he goes to a gym. If he does work out, he probably has a personal trainer come to his house or something else that's fancy and civilized. And he probably has his gym clothes tailored.
It's not like I like being seen out and about in yoga pants and sports bras (and this is typically when one runs into ex-boyfriends), but unless I'm going straight to the gym from somewhere, like work, I wouldn't dream of not going in my workout clothes. That's crazy talk. I'd rather a few people (you) look at me funny than waste all that time changing and stuffing a locker.
As for coming home in gym clothes? Yeah, okay, it's a little gross, but I'm a woman of convenience. I'm the type of person who will pay a $3 surcharge at an ATM because I don't want to walk the few extra blocks to my bank. Sue me.
In fact, while we're on the subject, I'll let you in on another little secret, too: I walk my dog -- and sometimes go to the grocery store -- in sweatpants. What do you think of that?! There is no way in holy hell that I am "getting dressed" when I wake up to take Onion (that's my dog) for a walk.
Do I get a few double takes if my husband and I are at the local bodega and I'm donning some sexy blue sweats? Yes. Do I care? A little. (This was much more acceptable when I lived in Los Angeles. New York doesn't seem to embrace this look as much.)
But like I said, I'm a woman of convenience, Tim Gunn. Please -- I ask that you look past my spandex and hoodies, and love me anyway. 'Cause I still love you.
Do you think it's weird to wear gym clothes in public?
Image via CamelCrusher1978/Flickr
When I see people in gym clothes in public just wandering around all I can think is that they are purposely shoving their "I work out every day and therefore healthier and better then you" holier the thou attitude. Unless you are actually running in those clothes (running not that crap half walk you call "jogging") then you need to not wear your gym clothes in public. I could not agree more with Tim Gunn on this. I'm so glad someone finally said it. And the only time its acceptable to go out in public in sweatpants is when you are camping and you are staggering from your tent to the bathroom and back. Its not that hard to throw on a tshirt, jeans, sweatshirt and sneakers. You've been dressing yourself for years, it shouldn't take more then a minute or two.
I put on my gym clothes before I leave the house and sometimes stop some where. I did it while I was in the Army, I don't see anything wrong with doing it now. Some people seem jealous or mad someone is working out...seriously?
At the very least, throw a shirt on when you are out and about not working out. (running, jogging, whatever) I really don't want to see anyone, fit or not, Jillian Michaels or fat Sally, wearing a sports bra in the grocery store. It has nothing to do with I think they think they are better than me, it's about decorum. You wouldn't show up to grandma's house wearing that, don't go to the grocery store in it. Especially if you are coming back from the gym. I'd really rather you not sweat all over the apples.
There's a difference between "wearing gym clothes in public" and "wearing GYM CLOTHES in public". The first is most of the people here... sweats to walk the dog or run to the store when it's housecleaning day, or whatever. Cute fitted yoga pants that double as cute regular pants. Fine. Cute and fine. (or maybe not cute, but old, functional, and fine)
But then there are GYM CLOTHES. These are the old ones that you really DO wear to the gym. The ones that you've just spent an hour or two or three sweating all over. They're probably soaked through, maybe they're dry, but they were soaked through. And unless you're the one person on earth who doesn't have some sort of odor when you sweat, they probably stink, too. That's ok, it's normal. But then you're going to transfer that sweat and stink to your car when you drive home from the gym?? You're going to wear those nasty, sweaty, stinky clothes to the grocery? Please don't. The onions smell bad enough.
Take a shower, please. It doesn't take long, and unless you work out in a dive or a dump, those locker rooms are plenty clean.
I wear my Lululemon everywhere and am proud of it.
I dont care about Gym clothes (prior to the workout!) or yoga pants/comfy clothes I get but I do think pajama pants are a tad ridiculous. Grown men and women in public in their pajamas? ummm NO! lol Yesterday there was a man at the resturant we were dining at in Superhero pants. Superhero. pants.

Tampa's Hyde Park Village is making a comeback.
The shopping area is surrounded by some of Tampa's highest income neighborhoods, but for the past four years, stores have closed and windows on storefronts have been covered.
Shoppers like Courtney Gilner have noticed.
"It's been empty, pretty much," said Gilner. "When I first lived here it had a department store, it had a makeup store, it had everything."
Gilner says she's been coming lately just to sit by the scenic fountain.
Recently, five stores have opened in the shopping district.
Andrew Smith is the owner of one of the new stores called High Cotton living.
Smith describes it as a southern lifestyle boutique and adds, having a store like this is something he's always wanted.
"I've wanted to do something like this since I was a little toddler," Smith said. "Growing up, I was that kid sitting on the golf course with a lemonade stand instead of being out playing."
Now, he works at the store with his mother and father, two retired school teachers.
Smith says his store features southern designers and mostly American-made products.
Victoria Bowa recently opened a store called Navy.
Bowa says it's high end women's shoe boutique that also sells jewelry, handbags and other accessories.
Bowa studied law and passed the bar, but says a legal career was not for her.
She decided now was the right time to open the store.
"It was sort of a life milestone, that kind of nudged me to get going on it," Bowa said. "I realized I wasn't getting any younger and if it was something I really wanted to do, I should just do it."
She believes having four other stores open at the same time is mutually beneficial.
"I feel that we sort of are all feeding off of each other, so it's helped me a lot, I know people come to my store and I tell them about all of the new stores," said Bowa.
She adds that Hyde Park Village was just the right fit for her kind of business.
"I knew that if I wanted to be in South Tampa, this was the only place I wanted to be, just because I knew a new business needed to rely on foot traffic," Bowa said.
Kara Hill was recently hired at the Don Me Now store.
Hill says she enjoys the atmosphere of the village.
"It's really a great thing because it's such a fun area," said Hill. "It's so much better than the whole shopping mall experience, it's something new and exciting and all the stores around here are new."
There are still some vacant store fronts at Hyde Park Village.
Some of vacant buildings have openings for large tenants and several of the new store owners say it would be nice to have a major anchor store move in to increase traffic, but for now they say Hyde Park Village appears to be heading in a new direction.

Goes to show the power of the Steelers' rabid faithful.
The NFL's official Coach of the Year honor went to the Atlanta Falcons' Mike Smith. Miami's Tony Sparano, Tennessee's Jeff Fisher and New England's Bill Belichick also received votes. Tomlin did not.
CONNECTIONSSteelers assistant special teams coach Amos Jones worked with Tomlin in the college ranks.
Jones and Tomlin were assistants at the University of Cincinnati in 1999 and 2000 under Rick Minter. Tomlin was 27 years old, Jones 40.
"I was about as fed up with young coaches as you can be," Jones said. "It was climb the ladder, step on dead bodies, make more money."
Tomlin, Jones said, was different.
"He'd look you in the eye and shake your hand. … When Mike left us to go to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (in 2001), I was in depression."

Twin Flames
Blurb Elizabeth Fell isn't normal. At least that's what made up majority of the whispers that followed her throughout her life. It used to bother her up until she turned sixteen and her perspective on reality changed, quite literally. Blessed with a unique blend of speed, strength and sight she has no idea why she has always felt so different in a world that no one can see, but her. She assumes she has her abnormalities all under control until the dreams start, four years later. Dreams that leave her feeling empty and alone and longing for the one constant they share – Cyrus. But the dreams aren't the only things invading her picture perfect life for soon after Cyrus awakens her subconscious she encounters a demon who just can't seem to stay away from her while frequently catching glimpses of the rare and mysterious fallen ones. It all seems to be too much of a coincidence. What is she? Is Cyrus her Twin Flame, and if he is why are they not together? Her subconscious knows the dark trut

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) – Taco Bell is launching a new idea for those struggling with their New Year's resolution to lose weight, which is a new "Drive-thru Diet." That's the way Taco Bell is plugging seven items on its menu, each with less than nine grams of fat.
Most of the seven items in this category has between 20 to 100 calories less than regular menu items. This is possible mostly by substituting salsa for the cheese on the items, and if you're counting calories, every little bit helps. The million dollar question is can you really lose weight at Taco Bell?
"Your nutrients may be compromised, your fiber almost certainly will be, but you could lose weight," said Lisa Richardson, a dietician. "We need variety to meet all our nutrient needs, so any type of diet that is too limiting you will not be successful in the long run, and it may work short term, but in the long run you'll get bored, you won't stick to it and you'll regain."
Lisa says don't assume low calorie meals are always healthy. The Chicken Fresco Burrito Supreme is on the Drive-thru menu because it has just eight grams of fat, but it also has more than 1,400 milligrams of sodium, which is more salt that we're supposed to have in a whole day.
