A law enforcement official tells The Associated Press that tests show Prince died of an opioid overdose.The official, who is close to the investigation, spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. The 57-year-old singer was found dead April 21 at his Minneapolis-area estate The findings confirm the suspicions we all had that opioids played a role in the musician’s death. After he died, a law enforcement official told the AP that investigators were examining whether an overdose was to blame and whether a doctor had prescribed him drugs in the preceding weeks.

Pop star Taylor Swift is well known for many reasons, unfortunately for her one of those reasons are her many failed relationships. For those of you keeping count, dust off your journal and add Calvin Harris to the list. After 15 months together the pair call it quits.
It is thought that Harris, who was involved in a car crash in Los Angeles last month, was the one to call things off. A source revealed: “Taylor’s heart was more in it then he was. He started to lose interest over the past few months, but really tried to not just break up.” Ouch, poor Taylor.

When I read where pop star, Pink covered the song that made Grace Slick a household name, ‘White Rabbit’, I was over like, ‘nope’. In my opinion, much like the late great Janis Joplin there is only one Slick, and the thought of her signature tune potentially being butchered burned me up. However, after forcing myself to listen to Pink’s cover, not only am I willing to admit she slayed it, but I’m also not ashamed to admit she leftme covered with chills!

What up Fam! I’m going to give you my review of the Sensei laser gaming mouse by Steelseries. I’ve been using this mouse for a little over 2 years now and I absolutely love it. Before the Sensei I used a Razr mouse that I did enjoy and I feel is the most comfortable mouse I’ve used, but the style and precision of the Sensei is by far my favorite thing about the Sensei. First things first the packaging, I think they did a wonderful job with the packaging making it a book style box. Information on the mouse on one side and clear plastic on the other so you can see the product before you even open it up. Even having pro gamer testimonies on the side to help your decision, if you were on the fence after you picked up the box.

Most all of the rescues in NE Oklahoma know each other and talk to each other about animals that need rescue. It has been puppy and kitten season for a couple of months, this year seems longer than most have. Rescues many times deal with the same people. Many times people will call a rescue to advise them of the litter of puppies or kittens they have and need to find homes for. People with litters get worried they are going to have to feed all of these babies, suddenly their “emergency” becomes someone else’s problem. They HAVE to be gone by tomorrow, it seems many people that have unwanted litters get evicted.

On January 27th, 2013, I was seated in the next to last row of Prudential Hall at the beautiful New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark, New Jersey. Because of a lovely young lady, I was there to receive a belated Christmas gift: seeing Tony Bennett in concert. After an opening by his equally talented singing daughter Antonia, the booming recorded voice of Frank Sinatra emanated through the cavernous auditorium: “This is my man, this cat, and I’m going to say it again, he’s the greatest singer in the world, Mr. Tony Bennett!”
Tony took to the stage and performed for no less than an hour. When we thought he was leaving the stage for intermission, he reappeared and yelled to the audience “Should we keep going?!?” The audience whipped into a frenzy and Tony darted back to center stage, carousing through another series of songs associated with his career before ending with his famous “I Left My Heart In San Francisco.” All in all, one of the finest concerts I’ve ever experienced, performed by a man who at that time was nearing eighty-seven years old and yet moved with the strength and vitality of a person much younger.

“I’m baaaaack!” Time to take a break from the real heavy stuff and get down to some raunchy and raucous Rock and Roll! Who better than the mighty Aerosmith to kick it off? Wailing guitars, stomping drums and a shriek like a bat out of hell, “Back In the Saddle” is THE quintessential rock song. It’s got it all! The band even tried to make it authentic by using a real bullwhip during the intro to get the “crack” just right, and injured themselves in the process. Determination!

For a minute there, it seemed like the infamous feud between Liam and Noel Gallagher had finally subsided. Early last year, the two appeared to have buried the hatchet, and they separately even began talking about an Oasis reunion in a vaguely positive light. Well, so much for that lovely thought, as Liam apparently now thinks his brother is no more than a spud.

Billed as the most haunted town in America, Shepherdstown, W.Va., is known as much for its ghostly residents as it is for the local arts scene, university, and historic attractions. In a community of 1,750 people, almost everyone has experienced something they couldn’t explain, resulting in Shepherdstown’s five-man police department responding to a majority of 911 calls where the disturbances are paranormal, not criminal, in nature.

You won’t find it on any official map and you won’t know when you cross the line, but according to some people, the Bermuda Triangle is a very real place where dozen of ships, planes and people have disappeared with no good explanation. Since a magazine first coined the phrase “Bermuda Triangle” in 1964, the mystery has continued to attract attention. When you dig deeper into most cases, though, they’re much less mysterious. Either they were never in the area to begin with, they were actually found, or there’s a reasonable explanation for their disappearance.

When we think of famous singers of standards that emerged and endured from the 1950s onward, two names automatically spring to the average lover of music: Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett. While these two legendary singers are undoubtedly at the top of their field, there was a bevy of other pop standard singers that followed them throughout this decade, a high-class group of accomplished vocalists that included (in no order in terms of greatness) Dick Haymes, David Allyn, Al Martino, Johnny Holiday, Jimmy Roselli, Johnny Hartman, and Jackie Paris.
While all of these singers enjoyed immense popularity as headliners and record makers in their own right, it’s debatable as to whether they ever achieved the level of popularity that the two “leaders” would surmount. There was another singer (who always cited Sinatra as his influence) amongst this group whose rich baritone voice had a quality and style all unto its own, his voice and career sustained well into his seventies. His name was Julius LaRosa, and we lost him two weeks ago at the age of eighty-six.

What up fam! Wanted to share some experience I had this last week. I have recently picked up a Wii U from Craigslist to play Super Smash Brothers 4 and Pokken Tournament. Which if you are looking to pick up a Wii U I would suggest finding one on Craigslist, don’t pay retail. I wanted to get somewhat competitive with it. So there are two huge draw backs with the Wii U, there isn’t a stock way to have a wired connection and the controllers are all wireless. Input lag isn’t something I want to deal with so I had to work around both of these issues. There is a way to get around the input lag, an adapter that allows you to wire in up-to 4 original GameCube controllers straight the console. Also a USB to Ethernet adapter is required to get the console off Wi-Fi and to reliable speeds with less latency.

In the 1970’s, we had so many great TV shows and one of them was ALICE. It starred Linda Lavin, who played Alice and took place in Mel’s Diner. You had a great supporting case and one of them was Beth Howland, who played the dizzy, but lovable Vera.
Sadly, Howland has died at the age of 74. She actually passed away December 31st, but her husband George Kimbrough told the New York Times he didn’t announce her death out of respect for her wishes, noting that she didn’t want a funeral or memorial service. He said the cause of death was lung cancer.
