Chile Earthquake: quake hits Robinson Crusoe Islands – updates

The earthquake measuring 8.8 on the Richter scale that has rattled Chile, killed 78 people when the tsunami hit the Robinson Crusoe Islands, according to President Michelle Bachelet.

The largest island in Chile was hit by a 3-meter high wave. The wave is heading towards Easter Island in the Pacific Ocean where evacuations are already under way.

“A village on the island is half-flooded, people have been evacuated to higher elevations,” the President added.

Friday Night Lights Season 4 Episode 6

You would agree that the last episode was one of the strongest and most emotional episode of  the fourth season of Friday Night Lights.

The series said goodbye to yet another regular: Matt Saracen, and also gave a well-deserved send-off to Lyla Garrity. But FNL didn't dwell or dramatize either, letting them become part of a larger story -- the series' continued realistic look at a small, football-obsessed town, one that was in a recession long before a national economic collapse.

The latest episode is "Friday Night Lights Season 4 Episode 6" (FNL S04E06). It is titled "Stay".

Friday Night Lights Season 4 Episode 5

At times in a series you see an episode that really portrays what this show is all about. I couldn't find a healthier example than this episode. Sometimes the acting has been debatable and the plot takes a lapse. However, Friday Night Lights Season 4 Episode 5 really washed away the blemishes. It is titled "The Son" (Watch the episode by scrolling to the bottom)

Saracen (Gilford) continues to prove to be one of the best vibrant characters with all his internal struggles and his constant pressure to grow up quickly and face reality forcefully. He truly brings some touching moments with his performance while struggling with the loss of a father that he never even knew.

Friday Night Lights draw upon the reality of the life of a small town and their struggles, instead of drawing up fictional, over the top, situations like most TV dramas do to reach the heart of viewers.

The intensity, the reality, and the emotions portrayed in this series facilitate the viewers to better understand what happens in a football town.

Tiger Woods – Voice Mail and Text Messages – US Weekly

Was Rachel Uchitel story a media frenzy ?!?! That has not been clarified yet; but in a sudden change of events, the focus has shifted from Rachel Uchitel (the alleged mistress of Tiger Woods) → to a new women who openly claimed to be having an affair with Tiger Woods. Jaimee Grubbs - a cocktail waitress in Los Angeles. (Scroll down for pictures). "YES, HE CHEATED", screams the US Weekly cover page.

Jamiee Grubbs, aged 24, told US Weekly that she had been in an affair (which also included about 20 sexual encounters) since 2007. It is to be noted here that Woods got married back in 2004.

People (including me) might be suspicious of Jamiee Grubbs trying to get into the limelight, but her claim that she can come up with a recorded voice mail and racy texts exchanged between Woods and her as proof is quite "unsettling". (Read more about this on US Weekly's coverage of Tiger Woods' affair →).

On the other hand, Tiger Woods released ANOTHER statement that he regrets his transgressions. The definition of transgression is: "going beyond the limits set by a moral principle, standard, law, etc.

He also mentioned again that the rumors of his car accident having something to do with a fight with Elin (his current wife) are malicious and unfounded. He went on to say that he is dismayed about the scrutiny he and his family had to face by the tabloids. He also asked for some privacy (quite humbly and indirectly) for his personal and family matter.

Tareq Salahi and Michaele Salahi, who were accused of crashing a White House State Dinner, appeared on 'The Today Show' with Matt Lauer this Tuesday morning. They forcefully denied allegations pressed upon them in the media.

They insisted that they did not 'crash' the first White House State Dinner hosted by the Obama's last tuesday. White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs insisted that non one can enter the White House due to some "misunderstandings".

Well, he has to say that otherwise the security measures within the White House are really questionable. And if the White House is having security loopholes, what can be expected of the security situation in the rest of the States.

According to The Washington Post, the couple is saying that they were invited to the dinner by the first female Command Sergeant of the Army Reserve, Michele S. Jones.

The Salahis and the head of the Secret Services have been summoned to a Congressional hearing this Thursday to testify regarding their entry in the White House without an invitation.
