At the motel, police said a frantic woman had called local press. The woman was identified as a friend of the victim.

Michaels was remembered by producer Rob Spallone today. Spallone said he was a longtime in the industry. In recent years, Michaels brought young girls into the industry - from “bus stops, to supermarkets, as anyone in the industry knows that’s what I best at.”

Matt Holliday Error YouTube


VIDEO! Watch Matt Holliday’s error video from last night’s Cardinals Dodgers game. Matt Holliday error came with two outs, bottom of the ninth, Cardinals leading 2-1.

The hit - an uneventful line drive.Uneventful until his missed it.

Vin Scully called it –

“Oh what a big break. Matt Holliday had the game over, and somehow missed the ball with his glove. It hit him right in the groin, hopefully he’s wearing a cup, and it landed right in front of him.

“You talk about a painful error for Matt Holiday.”

Dodgers went on win 3-2. The pain of the loss? No word if it’s still there. Watch the video below.


Dr Christine Daniel Arrest!

Dr Christine Daniel Arrest


Dr Christine Daniel has been handed an arrest for allegedlys taking people’s money on fake cancer treatments. Dr Christine Daniel Arrest was arrested in Los Angeles last night for taking $1.1 million from 55 families over three years. Prosecutors say Dr Daniel’s “treatment” resulted in the death of at least 6 patients within six months.

You see, Dr Christine Daniel Arrest is not a doctor. She’s a minister pushing herbs and telling people to stop traditional cancer treatment while paying her a pretty penny. Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Johns said in a statement today:

“This is an example of a doctor who is preying upon the most vulnerable people in our society. These patients were told they were being cured, but they were being eaten alive by cancer.”

She would appear on “Praise the Lord” (TBN) and convince patients to ofter send her upwards of $5,000 and stop their medically prescribed cancer treatment. Some reportedly even paid $13,000 only to die a few months later.

If convicted, Daniel faces 80 years in prison.

Red Bull Soap Box Race Los Angeles


Here are the details on the Red Bull Soapbox Race in Los Angeles today. The Red Bull Soapbox Race starts in 15 minutes at 1 pm.

The event is at 5th & Grand in Downtown Los Angeles, the first race at 1 pm and continuing all day. The event is free. Says organizers:

The wacky event will feature a field of more than 40 hand-made soapbox racers, driven by men and women daring enough to brave steep drops, a 90° turn and scary speeds in pursuit of achieving glory. But this race is far from your stereotypical childhood derby, and these are no ordinary vehicles! Angelenos can keep their eyes peeled for a giant nose, a bunk bed, a time-traveling DeLorean, Pac-Man, an Aztec temple and more zooming down Grand Ave and taking a sharp turn onto 5th Street next to Pershing Square Park.

There were also be a host of celebrity judges including LALATE’s fav Jillian Barberie.

While the outrageous crafts may be unfamiliar to the crowd, they will be met with some familiar faces! The day’s festivities will be hosted by celebs Jillian Barberie Reynolds, Paul Rodriguez, and Chris Ernst (aka Uncle E). To top it off, judging the forty daring teams will be a panel of more hot A-listers consisting of Erik Estrada, Kimberly Caldwell, Ronnie Renner, Stan Verrett and Sal Masekela. So stop on by and check them out!

How do you get there and where to park?

The event area is sure to be crowded, so public transit or car pooling are suggested - this saves traffic headaches and adds to the adventure of the day. There is also parking available in Downtown, including large parking lots on Hill St. between 2nd and 4th.

There are food and beverage stands at the event. More online: HERE
