A sign at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress hotel, which is just minutes from Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, couldn't be more explicit in its warning of alligators. It depicts a green alligator with its jaws spread wide and the words: "Please Be Aware of Alligators, No Swimming." The signage at Disney's Grand Floridian resort, where 2-year-old Lane Graves of Elkton, Nebraska, was attacked and killed by an alligator on Tuesday, simple tells visitors: "No Swimming Allowed, Thank You." The lack of an alligator warning at Disney shocked several tourists at the Hyatt. "We didn't know there weren't any signs like they have here,...

After last week’s Full Metal Mayhem, I was interested to see the second dose of Impact from Corpus Christi. There was a lot more action and a lot less Hogan. Although, the hand we were dealt with the Aces and Eights might not have been the strongest no matter how many beat downs they do. But I’ll explain soon enough.
Impact Wrestling began with a video package detailing the events of last week and that Jeff Hardy would not be appearing on this weeks episode. Then we go backstage and see the Sergeant in arms for Aces and Eights Devon talking to be younger, Garrett Bischoff and Wes Brisco that they need to take their match with Kurt Angle very seriously because he’s dangerous.

There’s a saying that everything is bigger in Texas and that proves to be true on this weeks impact from Corpus Christi, Texas. We even had the opening shown which never happens, usually on television. And to prove that, Hogan wants to talk to Hardy about his Full Metal Mayhem later tonight.
The action begins with the tag team title match two out of three falls as Austin Aries and Bobby Roode battle Hernandes and Chavo. The expectation at least in my opinion, is when two out of three falls happens it’s expected to have a long match. However, the first two falls of this match happened within the first five minutes. So why have the stipulation in the first place? If you don’t have time for it, why do it? That being said, the match was solid and everybody worked hard. It just felt very expedited.

In the home of Arkansas State University, Tna came into town and delivered a show that was odd to say the least. The matches and angles themselves were a little off but what puzzled me more was the fact that they basically came out and told you at the beginning of the show the next two weeks don’t matter as they set up to big title matches for the next April 11 in Corpus Christi, Texas. When you go ahead and say a title match is coming in two weeks the audience already checks out of what you’re saying because you’re basically telling them to tune out because the next few weeks really does not matter.
Now, I know with the new pay-per-view schedule that this was going to happen, but I didn’t think they would be so blatant in like a throwaway episode of Impact in the process.

Some of the fans injured in Saturday's Nationwide crash are planning to sue the organization. Wftv reports that a number of those hurt have already obtained legal counsel. In all, 33 fans were injured in the accident, with seven being hospitalized.
Spectators were in the line of fire when a multi-car pileup sent pieces of wreckage, including a tire and an engine, flying during the final lap of the race. Nascar has sent customer service representatives to the hospital to meet with the injured fans, as well as drivers Tony Stewart and Scott Lagasse Jr.

After a bit of a delay, Spike Lee decided to do the right thing.
The director agreed to pay a Florida couple after sending out an errant Twitter that he believed contained the address of George Zimmerman, the man who shot an killed unarmed teenager Treyvon Martin. It turns out the address was the home of elderly couple Elaine and David McClain.
The McClain's lawyer Matt Morgan tells the AP, "At this point in time, we have come to an agreement with Spike Lee and his attorneys, and at this point, the matter is fully resolved. Spike has agreed to compensate the McClains for their loss and for the disruption into their lives. He's taken full responsibility."
Elaine McClain tells the AP that Lee also called them to apologize. She says, "He was really kind. And when he called us, you could just tell he really felt bad about it.

Spike Lee has agreed to give compensation to an elderly Florida couple whose address he published on the internet in connection with the death of teenager Trayvon Martin.
The He Got Game director thought he was retweeting the address of neighbourhood watch volunteer, George Zimmerman, who shot Martin dead in a Florida gated community on 26 February, sparking outrage and protests across the U.S.
However, the address he posted to his Twitter.com page was actually the home of Elaine and David McClain, who have a son named William George Zimmerman - no relation to the Zimmerman involved in the shooting case. They had to flee their home after their address was published.
Lee publicly apologised for the blunder, and the couple's attorney, Matt Morgan, has now revealed the moviemaker has offered them compensation.

Elaine McClain also revealed the director apologised to them during a phone call, adding, "He was really kind. And when he called us, you could just tell he really felt bad about it. And it was just a slip, and I just know that he really, really has been concerned."...

Sanford, Fla. -- An elderly couple has reached a settlement with Spike Lee after the pair said they had to leave their Florida home after the director help spread a Twitter posting listing their address as that of the man who shot an unarmed teen.
The couple's attorney, Matt Morgan, announced the settlement Thursday. Morgan says Lee called them to apologize for retweeting their address. Specifics of the settlement weren't disclosed.
Elaine and David McClain are in their 70s and say they have a son named William George Zimmerman, who lived in their Sanford area home in the mid-1990s. They say he is no relation to 28-year-old George Zimmerman, who killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin on Feb. 26.
The killing has touched off widespread protests around the country and expressions of outrage – including from Lee and other celebrities – because Zimmerman was not arrested. The neighborhood watch volunteer has said he acted in self-defense.

Impact Wrestling – March 8th 2012
This weeks opening segment revolved around the Garrett Bischoff lightning push. Imagine how much someone who’s last name wasn’t Bischoff could benefit from getting a rub from both Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan at once. Garrett showed up despite being warned not to, just to show how brave he is. Kurt Angle made himself available as a partner for Gunner to face Garrett and a partner of his choosing, his reason being that he always respected his parents and that led him to a gold medal. “Immortal” bragged that Garrett would be on his own in the main event against both. But who would possibly team up with such a rookie? Maybe someone who has a problem with Kurt Angle? Of course it turned out to be Jeff Hardy, who has taken his face paint to a whole other idiot level this week again.

Tna Impact Wrestling! 26th January 2011
As always, last week gets recapped. But you read that last week right? Right!?
We pick up backstage where Jeff Hardy is beating down Bully Ray in that are that they always seem to be taking photos. They brawl past that with some terribly unrealistic punches and out to another backstage area. Just in time, Roode pulls up in his beautiful white truck and jumps Hardy with Bully. Bully drops a piece of wood on Jeff’s leg that looks like it weighs less than a sponge. They throw him in the back of the truck, but then James Storm comes out of nowhere and gets involved. He throws Storm through a barricade then smacks Bully with a Plastic bottle. I should note there’s a lot of needless grunting going on. Then, Sting comes into the picture and takes a bat to Roode’s stomach.

Last week, James Storm blamed everyone for jumping him, including Aj Styles. But in the end it was Kurt Angle returning and taking the credit for the attack. Felt the need to explain that since I didn’t do the results last week.
In the arena, Kurt Angle is on his way to the ring. Kurt says he didn’t attack Storm from behind, Storm just didn’t see him coming. He has cat like reflexes you see. Not surprisingly, Storm comes out to respond. Storm talks about how this has gone beyond personal, its now business. What… isn’t it normally bad when it’s the other way around? Kurt claims Storm screwed him out of his title. Storm wants to fight instead, and so takes a swig of beer. Angle says he doesn’t want to fight but he knows a few who do,...

Noel Gallagher has admitted that he needs to get used to becoming a frontman. The singer insisted that he is not nervous about his upcoming live shows as part of his new musical collective Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds in October, but said that it will take him some time to adjust to being centre stage. During a web chat for fans, Gallagher confessed: "I've got to come over a few hurdles - like standing in the middle of the stage and having the band behind me." He added: "Sideshow Bob - I perfected that role and I loved it, but now I'm going to have to be centre stage Steve." Gallagher's friend Matt Morgan, who also featured in the web chat, asked whether the former Oasis star would have costume changes during his new tour. Gallagher replied: "Let me tell you, when you see the guys I'm playing with,...

Russell Brand once spent the night with Kate Moss. The British comedian, who was at one time renowned for his womanizing ways, before settling down with his pop star fiance Katy Perry, took the supermodel back to his house in 2006 after being introduced to her by their mutual friend Sadie Frost.
Russell, 35, reveals in his new book "My Booky Wook 2: This Time It's Personal", "When we arrive at Sadie's house it is decided that Matt Morgan, co-presenter of my radio show, should walk into the house, so there is no photo of me and her together. This gives me hope that we do have something to hide, but also makes me jealous of Matt as he gets to walk up the driveway with her."
"Within the beautiful house we flirt for a while, then under some mutual pretense of looking at hung photographs of Sadie's deplorably gorgeous children we wander off.

Russell Brand has been mistaken for a lookalike of himself. The "Get Him to the Greek" star, who is set to wed brunette bombshell Katy Perry in the autumn, was recently spotted by an eager fan outside a Los Angeles eatery, who mistook him for a Brand impersonator.
An onlooker told National Enquirer magazine, "She rushed up and babbled, 'Wow, you look so much like Russell Brand, you could get work as a Russell Brand impersonator.' " However, the British funny man was not fazed and when he realized the fan really hadn't recognized him, he decided to have a joke and play along. He said, "Actually, that's how I support myself."
The quirky actor and presenter then grabbed his beard and declared, "This is a wig!" The eyewitness revealed the fan was then shocked when "California Gurls" hitmaker Katy pulled up in her car and the pair sped off.

Los Angeles, California (X17online) - Russell Brand is possibly going to be hitting the American airwaves. The British comedian is in talks with Sirius Radio to get his own show, according to The Sun. The 35-year-old has reportedly been offered millions for the job. Other celebrities who have nabbed deals with Sirius are Eminem, Howard Stern and Jamie Foxx. "Russell has been itching to get back on radio for a while now. He has been off doing other things but radio still really tickles him. Russell's sidekick Matt Morgan is also keen to get writing and broadcasting again. The Sirius deal is in its infancy but Russell is well up for it. He has been given the hard sell about how they could make him the new Howard Stern," a source tells The Sun. Brand previously hosted a show on BBC Radio 2, but this would be his first attempt in the U.

Giove is a small village sited on the peak of a hill not far from Rome. It’s a cloudy and dark day when Fango arrives, and after a U-turn off the long, winding road leading there, the 900-year-old castle comes into view where the shooting of Skull Heads (out on DVD October 6) and Demonic Toys 2: Personal Demons (being helmed by Gingerdead Man 2’s William Butler; coming in December), two new horror movies from Charles Band’s Full Moon company, is taking place.
As soon as Fango enters the huge structure, a production assistant leads the way to the dungeon: the court of Band himself, owner of the castle, which he hasn’t filmed in since Meridian and Stuart Gordon’s The Pit And The Pendulum in the early ’90s. “It has been more than 15 years since we last shot a movie here,” he says. “You know, I have...
