Justin TImberlake's latest move....

Timberlake on phone via V CastBy Antony Bruno, Billboard.com

Justin Timberlake is taking his image mobile.Timberlake on Friday unveiled a mobile video channel on Verizon Wireless' V Cast video service called JT-TV during a pre-Grammy party at the Avalon in Hollywood.

The move makes Timberlake the first artist to have his own branded channel on the V Cast service, with content developed exclusively for it. He will provide four areas of programming: fashion, music, movies and lifestyle.

Filming for the mobile TV service began at the Avalon, where Timberlake and childhood friend Trace Ayala launched their William Rast fashion line, complete with fashion show and musical performances.

JT-TV will begin airing in March with fashion and music programming, followed by movie and lifestyle content added in May or June.

Timberlake's manager Johnny Wright said the idea grew from Timberlake's days with 'N Sync, when the group was touring through Europe and saw the more advanced media capabilities of mobile phones there at the time. When discussing tour sponsorship possibilities with Verizon, the idea resurfaced.

"We started asking questions," Wright said. "How much further could we take this? Could we get involved in V Cast, because we've always wanted to do something called JT-TV. It was just at the right time, and it just clicked."

For Verizon, this is the first of what it hopes will be many artist-branded opportunities on its V Cast service, designed to drive awareness and adoption of the mobile video format.

"Artists are looking for ways to market themselves outside of music, and we're always looking to see who's coming up and spot what makes a good fit for us," said Verizon director of advertising and sponsorships Suzy Deering, adding that Timberlake was the ideal launch partner. "He's an amazing artist for us to work with because he's already got a vision of who he is as a brand. It makes it easier for us to adopt that brand into our objectives and our audience."

The owners were evicted two weeks ago. Authorities said they left behind six kittens to fend for themselves in the house, which was as cold as 10 degrees.
The felines survived by eating styrofoam and plastic and drinking antifreeze tainted toilet water, police said.
All six kittens are now at a shelter where officials said they should be healthy enough to adopt soon.

Koston Golfs for Dream Center
Koston and Active combine efforts in raising funds to help rebuild the Santa Ana Dream Center skate park

Ontario, CA , February 1st - On Thursday March 8th, Eric Koston along with Active will be holding the first annual Eric Koston Invitational Golf Tournament for the benefit of the Santa Ana Dream Center . The Dream Center is a non-profit organization which is committed to helping inner city youth excel in life. “We are a place where people can come to learn, eat, and skate without the fear of gangs, drugs, or violence,” states Shane Veera of the Dream Center . All proceeds from the Eric Koston Invitational Golf Tournament will go to fund the building of the street course. Donations from the event are slated to exceed $8,000.

The Tournament will be held at the Tustin Ranch Golf Club and will consist of 13 teams of 4 players who will play in the best ball format. Some of the invitees include top professional skateboarders, as well as numerous skateboard industry movers and shakers. Everyone from Ogio to Nixon will be involved in contributing towards the Dream Center and the Tournament. “Everyone involved is proud to help Eric Koston launch his first annual golf tournament. Eric has given so much to all of us in the skateboard community and again he is extending his efforts to give even more.”

Shane Veera also stated, “This event is a very worthy event and will greatly aid in our center’s success. Active has helped a tremendous deal in this past year and has contributed clothing to hundreds of low income families in the neighborhood and has provided the youth with skate gear that the children can be proud of and helmets that were greatly needed. I’m excited for this event and my hat goes off to Eric Koston and everybody at Active who are making this happen.”

The Luck of the Draw? Yeah, Whatever!

So, we've got five people in the Comm 464 group. It's me, Val, Christian, Farhad and Renee.

We decided to choose pieces of paper to see who'd be group leader. The one with the shortest piece would become said leader.

Well, imagine my luck to be first and to have chosen the smallest piece of paper!

$%&*!

"Beach Bum" defined

My father gave me this moniker of "beach bum" many years ago because I love to watch the Association of Volleyball Professionals (A.V.P.) Tour when the tour stops in California every summer.

It's a nickname that I still use today, especially in the AVP's forum.
