Barbara Eden 2013 Photo: BarbaraEden.com As many men my age, one of their first crushes was one in the form of a little blond woman who lived in a bottle. Barbara Eden was the Jeannie that we all dreamed about from 1965-1970. Still striking, but now age 78, Barbara rocked the casbah last weekend when she wore her original harem costume from “I Dream of Jeannie” at the 2013 Life Ball in Vienna. The theme was “1001 Nights” and Barbara appeared on stage in costume where she danced, blinked and char...

For those who have been waiting to hear if Amy Grant’s first album in 10 years is any good – take heart. “How Mercy Looks From Here” has made the #1 spot on Christian soundScan. That is good news, but somewhat to be expected coming from a Christian music source. But how about this? Her debut made it to the #12 spot on the Billboard 200. Now that’s impressive. “Amy Grant has delivered a beautiful record of compelling songs that document her life experiences over the past decade since her last studio r...
Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine as Mr. Spoke and Captain Kirk(Photo: paramount) What I enjoyed about the first J.J. Abrams version of “Star Trek” was how the movie stayed true to the old TV series but still had its own personality for the new franchise. That is until halfway through when Leonard Nimoy reprised his role as the Spock of the future giving advice to his younger self. It cheapened the story a bit and leaned on Nimoy’s performance as a crutch. Four years later, “Star Trek into Darkness” i...

Even with the bad news, he still had a tone of humor in his post:“Tomorrow I go in for my first bone biopsy and the process will start. I used to go t...
In a little unassuming building on the North Shore on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, sits the store of HE>i. The store mainly sells t-shirts, tank tops, sunglasses, stickers and buttons all printed with the phrase, HE>i. The showroom is bigger than it needs to be, the merchandise is sparse and the whole concept looks somewhat out of place in this remote part of Oahu. But there is more to this little shop than meets the eye. HE>i is short for “He is Greater than I” and is inspired by John 3:30, “He must ...
Recognize this guy?(Photo: Rovio) What started out as a simple app has blown out of proportion. The Finland entertainment media company, Rovio, created the “Angry Birds” mobile game in 2009 and since then, many sequels have been added along with t-shirts, toys, stuffed animals and more. To date, the various games have been downloaded more than 1.7 billion times. Had enough? Rovio and Sony Pictures Entertainment beg to differ. For weeks now, several studios have been fighting for the rights to ma...
