Demi Lovato is "Up All Night" with Missy Elliott and Timbaland

USA Up All Night (also known as Up All Night and Up All Night with Rhonda Shear) is an American cable television series that aired weekly on Friday and Saturday nights on the USA Network. The show aired from 1989 to 1998.
Demi Lovato:
Demi Lovato drops a serious beat in her latest single.
The artist, who has said her upcoming album will feature a touch of hip hop, is joined by Missy Elliott and Timbaland on the track, which is titled "Up All Night."“It’s about staying up all night long and singing it to the boy that you like, and it’s flirty and fun and it’s not too grown-up, but it’s grown-up enough,” the 19-year-old told MTV News about the single. Listen to it now.Demi Lovato had us certifiably choked up with her heart-tugging ballad “Skyscraper”, and now she’s got us dancing to the beat on her new Unbroken song “All Night Long”. Stop toying with our emotions, Demi! The club-ready jam is the singer’s collaboration with Timbaland and Missy Elliott, and it’s another successful step towards the former Disney kid’s evolution as an identifiable, mature pop act with her own voice.Thanks to a tweet by Timbo, head over here to listen to Demi’s song (while you still can).“Don’t make plans / Come home with me / We’ll stay up all night long,” sings

Demi on the chorus. And play Shoots and Ladders, right?The upbeat, sassy number has a fun, hand-clapping rally vibe with the cheerleader “Hey!”s that pepper throughout, and though Missy’s contribution is brief, it helps make the track feel like that much more of a party. Glad to see Demi’s new disc isn’t totally made of super-serious or sentimental material.
       

'Up All Night Creator Emily Spivey is having fun

'Up All Night FUN:
The writers of NBC's new comedy "Up All Night" should not lack for material -- they're creating a TV show about the travails of new parenthood in, at least by showbiz standards, an unusually baby-heavy environment.
Creator Emily Spivey and stars Christina Applegate, Will Arnett and Maya Rudolph all have young children, as does semi-regular Nick Cannon. There's even a nursery adjoining Applegate's and Rudolph's dressing rooms, Spivey says."The babies are here a lot. Down the whole hallway there are signs that say 'Quiet - sleeping babies,'" Spivey told Zap2it when we spoke with her in early September. "Poor Nick is flying back and forth, because his family is in New York. But everyone's just managing -- it's what you have to do. It hasn't been a problem -- it's actually been kind of nice. There's nothing that makes the blood pressure do down more than holding a sweet baby."
It also helps that, according to Spivey, working on "Up All Night" has so far been "super-duper fun." We talked with the former "Saturday Night Live" writer about changes she's made since the pilot and what she hopes viewers will get from the show, which premieres Wednesday night (Sept. 14). Some highlights of our conversation.

How 'real' is new NBC comedy?Christina Applegate in 'Up All Night

USA Up All Night (also known as Up All Night and Up All Night with Rhonda Shear) is an American cable television series that aired weekly on Friday and Saturday nights on the USA Network. The show aired from 1989 to 1998.
Christina Applegate in 'Up All Night:
Christina Applegate and Will Arnett's new TV comedy "Up All Night" may bring the funny -- but part of its draw is probably that it's dealing with the real challenges of being a new parent, the star of the sadly short-lived 'Samantha Who?' told EW.Granted, the set-up is a little extreme compared with the average parents. Applegate and Arnett (of "Arrested Development" fame) play a couple reluctantly adjusting to parenthood, no longer able to indulge chain-smoking, hard-partying ways anymore. (Hangovers and crying babies, for example, do not mix well.)
But many of the challenges they appear to tackle -- managing sleep deprivation, active and involved fatherhood, juggling work, relationship and childcare -- are issues that have been studied extensively, and in different contexts. (Perhaps that's because the TV couple and their co-star Maya Rudolph are currently all parents of young kids.)
Take a 2004 study published in the journal Biological Research for Nursing, which found that women tend to suffer more sleep disruptions than the men do after childbirth. Or 2010 research in the Journal of the American Medical Assn., which found that women aren't the only ones who suffer from post-partum depression -- new fathers struggle with it too, as health writer Shari Roan explains.Also perhaps notable for parents (and perhaps stay-at-home dads, like Arnett's character) is how caring for a child changes a person. For example, a new paper out this week in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found that men's testosterone levels drop after they become fathers -- and the more time spent with the kids, the lower the hormone level goes. It's a finding showing that men evolved to be good parents, the researchers say.

Up All Night

USA Up All Night (also known as Up All Night and Up All Night with Rhonda Shear) is an American cable television series that aired weekly on Friday and Saturday nights on the USA Network. The show aired from 1989 to 1998.
Hosts:
Actress/comedienne Caroline Schlitt originally hosted the Friday night show, while comic Gilbert Gottfried hosted the Saturday night show. When Schlitt left the program in 1990, comedienne/B-movie actress Rhonda Shear replaced her on Fridays.
Cancellation:
In 1998, USA came under the new management of Barry Diller, and decided to go for a more general and upscale type of viewer. This meant many of USA's long-running series were either overhauled or canceled – Up All Night ended up among the latter. The network relieved Shear and Gottfried of their hosting duties (while still showing the Up All Night imagery before/after commercial breaks), and began airing re-runs of mainstream films that appealed to a broader audience. Eventually, the Up All Night name, music, and graphics were completely removed from the films.

Scarlett Johansson Tapping FBI

Scarlett Johansson appears to be the latest victim of a nude photo HACKER -- after multiple self-shot naked cell phone pics of the actress appeared on a popular website this morning. Sources connected with Scarlett tell us ... the FBI will be contacted this morning because they believe this is a criminal act. The FBI has been involved in several celebrity nude photo hacking situations in the past year -- involving Vanessa Hudgens, Jessica Alba and more.

The Situation is expressing some serious remorse for parking his Ferrari in a handicapped spot in NJ yesterday ... telling his inner circle he was simply in a rush to get to the bank before it closed.spoke with sources extremely close to the "Jersey Shore" star who tell us Sitch is "very sorry" for taking the spot ... especially after learning about the  video which shows a handicapped person who was forced to park further away from the bank.One source tells us, "Sitch was in a rush to get to the bank before closing time because he is only in town for a few days -- and in his haste he did a sloppy parking job."

Tareq Says Michaele Salahi Was Not Kidnapped

Cops To Tareq Was Not  Kidnapped:
Michaele Salahi was NEVER abducted ... so say police in Virginia ... who claim Michaele has contacted law enforcement and told them she DID NOT want her husband to know where she was.The Warren County Sheriff's Dept. just released a statement saying one of their deputies spoke with Michaele  .... and "She seemed calm, was engaged in conversation, and assured the deputy that she had left the residence with a good friend and was where she wanted to be."
The WCSD adds, "Mrs. Salahi advised that she did not want Mr. Salahi to know where she was."Cops say Michaele expressed she was "very sorry" that the Sheriff’s Office had to be involved, but "she did not want to be home right now."The WCSD says officers have made contact with Tareq and "advised him that he had spoken with Mrs. Salahi and told him that she was fine."Still, the Warren County Sheriff’s Office says it is working with the FBI "in an attempt to make additional contact with Mrs. Salahi to assure her well being."

But clearly, Tareq isn't convinced -- because he just gave a tear-filled interview to NBC (video below), insisting, "I swear to God ... this is not a joke."

Michaele Salahi with Neal Schon On a Journey

Michaele Salahi (née Michelle Ann "Missy" Holt) (born October 1, 1965) is an American self-proclaimed model and socialite. The Oakton, Virginia native is a very active member of the Washington, D.C. social scene.She and her husband, Tareq, are founders of America's Polo Cup, which had become one of the largest and most high profile polo events in the U.S. They have also been the alleged owners and residents of the Oasis Winery near Hume, Virginia. (Both the Oasis Winery and America's Polo Cup, Inc. filed for Chapter 7 protection in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in February 2009 and September 2010, respectively.) In 2009, she claimed to be a former Washington Redskins cheerleader; however, the Washington Post reported that this was untrue.
On a Journey with Neal Schon:
A couple hours after Tareq Salahi released a public statement and asked for help in tracking down his supposedly kidnapped wife, Michaele Salahi's whereabouts have been discovered: she's in Memphis with Journey guitarist Neal Schon.
Michaele used to date the artist and is rumored to be having an affair with him now. She attended his band's concert in Nashville last night. Said a police department spokesperson who chatted on the phone with the former Real Housewife of D.C.:She seemed calm, was engaged in conversation, and assured the deputy that she had left the residence with a good friend and was where she wanted to be. Mrs. Salahi advised that she did not want Mr. Salahi to know where she was. [She was] very sorry [that the Sheriff’s Office had to be involved, but] she did not want to be home right now."She does want to make headlines in any way she conceivably can, however. What a terrible pair of human being, the Salahis.

UAW President Bob King says:
We call on Congress to put creating good jobs above more tax cuts for the wealthy. It’s time for those who constantly call for tax cuts to support Obama’s plan to provide tax cuts to those who need them the most: working families.
Unions and progressive organizations are calling the American Jobs Act that President Obama presented to a joint session of Congress last night a vital and essential step to restoring the nation’s economy and putting America back to work.They are urging Congress to put aside partisan politics and pass the legislation as a major tool to solve the nation’s jobs crisis.

Attack The Block Movie

Attack The Block Movie Review:
A teen gang in South London defend their block from an alien invasion.
Director:
Joe Cornish
Writer:
Joe Cornish
Stars:
John Boyega, Jodie Whittaker and Alex Esmail.
Movie Info:
From the producers of Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, Attack the Block follows a gang of tough inner-city kids who try to defend their turf against an invasion of savage alien creatures, turning a South London apartment complex into an extraterrestrial warzone. -- (C) Sony Pictures.
Movie Review:
I sometimes have to approach movies that I’ve been dying to see months before actually getting to see them with a sense of restraint. High levels of anticipation can be dangerous for two main reasons- the movie may end up not living up to the standards you set for it leaving you disappointed and the possibility of giving the film too much credit because you’ve already told yourself you were going to love it. ATTACK THE BLOCK is a film that made all my doubts disappear the second the title card appeared on screen. This is an alien invasion film that’s fun, witty and surprisingly scary at times.
Movie Story:
 
There is a shot in Attack the Block of a young man hanging outside his apartment building, holding onto the British flag, the Union Jack. The young man, pointedly named Moses, has trapped the alien creatures in his apartment, jumped out the window, and his holding on for his life. Especially in light of the recent riots in England, the symbolism shouldn't be missed. Certainly, Attack the Block can be enjoyed simply for its surface pleasures of resourceful kids versus creatures from outer space, but there is more to it than that.The kids in fact live in what the British call council flats. Poor, mostly black, and casually criminal, these are not the youth idealized in something from Steven Spielberg. One of the more interesting choices Joe Cornish has made is to break from the standard science fiction narrative where the characters are usually white and more or less middle class. Nor is there a scientist in the bunch. The closest there is to someone with a modicum of scientific knowledge is a stoner who may have understood that what may be happening is, at least in intention, hardly an alien invasion. Cornish also does something radical in his introduction of the kids to cause them to work to gain the sympathy of the audience.
The action takes in and around one of the council flats where the boys live. The one young woman who joins them, only because she sees it as the only way to survive, is named Sam. While Attack the Block does not recall Howard Hawks in the same way that the films of John Carpenter do, there are some parallels to be found here. Most significantly is that Cornish centers his film on a small group that has to take on an outside force that is bigger and more powerful, and can only rely on their own abilities. Any additional help would be too late, if it came at all. By having the female character named Sam, it announces that at least during this situation, she is one of the boys, and entitled to take action along with the others. What makes this different from a Hawks film, or even a Carpenter film, is that Sam is a woman, while the boys are just that, boys, who are stumbling in their efforts to establish themselves as men.There is no simple description for the space monsters other than, as the boys do, describe them as resembling a combination of bear, gorilla and wolf. In full shots, these creatures made me think of the unholy spawn of the titular Alien and Oscar the Grouch. Their most noticeable feature is their double set of sharp, phosphorescent teeth. Cornish has learned the lessons from the better recent creature features, like Alien and Pitch Black, so that what is seen of the creatures is mostly some very quick shots where we don't see much, but we see enough to put the audience on edge. The action takes place in a building called Wyndham Tower, perhaps named after the British science fiction writer, notably of Day of the Triffids, where alien creatures act less out of deliberate malice than from biological imperative.But back to the boy and the flag . . . Attack the Block is about territory, or at least the illusion of territory. Moses and his gang act in their own misguided way in the name of their building and neighborhood when they are first introduced. A drug dealer in the building claims ownership regarding criminal activity when he recruits Moses to work for him. The police, when they appear, are there on behalf of the state to primarily keep those people that might grudgingly be called citizens in their respective places. The alien appear in this out of the way part of south London based also on a territorial claim that may have been in intention once it is established that the creatures are acting on animal instinct. Ultimately, Moses learns the hard way that actions have consequences, and takes a few steps towards a kind of adulthood that exists on other planet than the one inhabited by the cuddly kids and aliens in a Spielbergian universe.

Shockwave updates for Flash

 Updates for Flash  Over 450 million Internet-enabled desktops have installed Adobe Shockwave Player. These people now have access to some of the best the Web has to offer - including dazzling 3D games and entertainment, interactive product demonstrations, and online learning applications. Shockwave Player displays Web content that has been created by Adobe Director.
# Determine the Shockwave Player version you installed, if any  SDK program.
large Patch Tuesday load :
On the heels of a large Patch Tuesday load from Microsoft, Adobe on Tuesday released a slew of security updates affecting several of its products.Critical" updates were released for Flash Player, Flash Media Server, Shockwave Player and Photoshop CS5. In addition, an “important” update was released for Adobe's help-authoring tool RoboHelp.Adobe said it is not aware of any in-the-wild exploits targeting any of the issues addressed in its updates Tuesday.
Flash Player update :
The Flash Player update is the largest of the lot, addressing 13 critical flaws that could cause a crash or allow an attacker to take control of an affected system, Adobe said in its release. The fix addresses issues in version 10.3.181.36 and earlier editions for Windows, Mac, Linux and Solaris operating systems, as well as version 10.3.185.25 and earlier for Android and Adobe AIR 2.7.
Shockwave Player :
The update for Adobe's multimedia viewer Shockwave Player corrects seven critical vulnerabilities found in version 11.6.0.626 and earlier on Windows and Mac, Adobe said. The flaws could allow an attacker to run malicious code on a vulnerable system.
Flash Media Server, Photoshop CS5:
The patches issued Tuesday for Flash Media Server, Photoshop CS5, and RoboHelp each fix just one vulnerability, Adobe said.Google researcher Tavis Ormandy said on Twitter Tuesday that Adobe had downplayed the number of vulnerabilities fixed in its Flash Player update. Ormandy said the update actually addresses “400 unique vulnerabilities” to which he had alerted the company.“Apparently that number was embarrassingly high, and they're trying to bury the results,” Ormandy wrote on Twitter, adding that he plans to publish his own advisory about the bugs. He said he was seeking credit for finding the flaws.In a bulletin about the update, Adobe acknowledged a number of researchers who reported the security issues, including Ormandy, as well as the Google Chrome team for “their great work on several improvements to this Flash Player release.”Wiebke Lips, an Adobe spokeswoman, questioned Ormandy's claim.
Tavis' Twitter communication was not coordinated with us,” Lips told SCMagazineUS.com in an email Wednesday. “We are assuming that he is referring to the results of an ongoing joint engineering effort between Google and Adobe. The total number of unique bugs discussed as part of that project is far less than the number Tavis provided in his tweet.”Lips said Adobe policy is to not publicly disclose in its security bulletins the details of “internal findings."Ormandy has previously clashed with other high-profile firms over similar issues.Last June, Ormandy attracted a wave of criticism from members of the security community after publishing details about an unpatched Windows kernel vulnerability after giving Microsoft just five days' notice about the but. In that case, he said he went public with the information in the best interest of security.

New Shockwave Chronic Heel Pain Treatment

Shockwave is the name of several fictional characters in the various Transformers series. Throughout his incarnations, he is usually distinguished by a laser cannon in lieu of one of his hands and his distinctive face, which is featureless save a single robotic eye. Due to issues with Hasbro's trademark of the name Shockwave, some products were also released under the name Shockblast.
Chronic Heel Pain:
There are 3.85 million cases of chronic heel pain in the United States, costing healthcare $2.29 billion. Now a new 20-minute non-surgical procedure can alleviate chronic heel pain (Plantar Facsiitis) and Dr. Charles Birk offers it.
Birk has offices in Cape May Court House and in Beesleys Point and is specially trained to offer this new treatment for heel pain.Plantar Facsiitis (heel pain) results from inflammation of the connective tissue that stretches from the base of the toes, across the arch of the foot, to the point at which it inserts into the heel. Typically pain is the worst with the first few steps in the morning.It is sometimes associated with a heel spur, in which case it is called “heel spur syndrome.”The condition can usually be successfully treated with conservative therapies such as the use of anti-inflammatory medications, ice packs, stretching exercises, orthotic devices, night splints, cortisone injections and physical therapy. If the condition does not clear up, ESWT or Shockwave Therapy may be considered.

As with any procedure, complications may arise but less than 1 percent of the cases during the FDA clinical trials of ESWT reported some mild complication like bruising of the skin, swelling and or numbness or tingling.Charles Birk is a Diplomate, American Board of Podiatric Surgery and a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons as well as certified in Ultrasound Diagnostic Technology, and Board Certified in foot surgery.
