TRUE BLOOD’s Michelle Forbes Talks Maryann, the Statue and What’s Next
2009-07-12 23:36:00 Direct from Toronto’s Polaris Convention and just in time for this evening’s return of TRUE BLOOD, HBO’s deliciously addictive vampire series (that as it turns out, is a about a whole lot more than just blood suckers) comes this TV Addict’s new interview with Michelle Forbes, who plays the mysterious Maryann Forrester. The TV Addict: Earlier in your career, it was widely reported that you turned down a series regular role on STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE because you didn’t wish to commit to a series regular role on television at that point in your career. Why the change of heart with TRUE BLOOD? Michelle Forbes: Alan Ball [TRUE BLOOD's creator]. He’s such a wonderful man to work for and I don’t think I’ve ever run into anyone who is not a fan of his. And, after DURHAM COUNTY and IN TREATMENT, I really wanted to do something light and fun. And while TRUE BLOOD is a very technically difficult show and there is a lot of depth to it, it&rsqu...

Forbes Says One of the Best Winter Drives Goes Past My Driveway
2009-01-22 03:31:00 Forbes.com has an article called America's Best Snowy Drives with an accompanying slide show listing the top ten winter drives in the US. Of note to us is that one is in Vermont, one is in nearby upstate New York, and they missed a great one in New Hampshire. The Vermont drive is Route 100 from Stowe to Rochester. This is a 48 mile section of Route 100 that I am familiar with because my inn is on that road in Waterbury. You will find the entire drive enjoyable but the best part will be between Warren and Rochester where you are driving in the Green Mountain National Forest. I wrote a travel review of Route 100 on Milebymile.com that includes this section. It will have more details on what you can expect to find. A nearby drive in upstate New York is within an easy drive of Vermont. This Lake George Loop starts and ends in Glens Falls NY at the southern end of Lake George.One of my favorite drives in the country is in nearby New Hampshire. It takes me just 45 minutes to get ove...

50 Cent edges out Jay-Z for top spot of Forbes List
2008-08-19 22:04:00 You've read about the $150 million deal with Live Nation, bought the hit American Gangster album and gone to see the smash, sold-out tour with Mary J. Blige. Given his mountain of coin, Jay-Z must be sitting securely at #1 on Forbes magazine's 2008 list of "Hip-Hop Cash Kings," right? Not if 50 Cent has anything to do with it. According to the magazine, after topping the list in 2007, Jigga dropped down to #2 this year behind 50, who hauled in $150 million over the past 12 months, nearly twice as much as Jay ($82 million) made in that same period. A huge chunk of that ($100 million after taxes) came from the sale of 50's stake in VitaminWater, but he also raked in millions from his G-Unit clothing line and record label, his movie projects, video games and sales of Curtis. He could be primed for a repeat next year as well, if his joint venture with South African mining billionaire Patrice Motsepe pans out and produces the expected 50 Cent-branded line of platinum bling.READ MORE

KGB on Forbes list
2008-06-17 07:42:00 Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila isn't a billionaire, but he made mention in Forbes.com article for the highest paid bench-warmers in all of sports."With a tight salary cap playing a big role in setting NFL salaries and bonuses, players were measured by how much cap space they took on their teams' payrolls," writes Tom Van Riper of Forbes.com. "High salaried vets relegated to part-time duty include Jets quarterback Chad Pennington, Packers defensive end Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila and Raiders running back LaMont Jordan."KGB plays a valuable role in providing a pass rush, but just how valuable is he? Is he worth the money the Packers are paying him even though he's probably playing less than 50% of the defensive snaps?The Packers hold very little leverage if they want KGB to play. They can ask him to re-work his contract and take a pay cut, but they risk alienating a productive player that could result in a hold out instead.And with all the salary cap space the Packers currently have, it's not like...
