Kacie James

I’m not going to lie to you guys: I’ve been playing way too much Pokemon. Fortunately, having a handheld console is awesome in PE, judging by the fact that we happen to have more blackouts than the Kardashians after a night out.

In Other News: The Wind Waker sails to success in the UK, God of War devs ascend to other projects, Batman in your hands and Trevor has a message for you.

Here’s the news we didn’t post today, because I was too busy selling clean wrecking balls that Miley Cyrus had not ruined yet.

      With a name like Kacie James, I’m guessing she has had a few of those necklaces given to her 😉

    The official SaintsRowNigri rating of today’s ION is: What is it about black lacy lingerie that seems to just drive men wild? And she certainly got that girl next door look down. Well done!

      The above-linked video has been circulating since 2009 and is variously reported as an audition for the television show Armenia’s Got Talent, Poland’s Got Talent, or Russia’s Got Talent gone horribly wrong, a haplessly comedic “William Tell” act that ends with one participant taking an arrow straight through the head. No program by any of those names exists, however, and the set shown in the video curiously features only generic signs and props reading

      “Talent” in English — no fuller program name is displayed, no signage bearing anything written in the language of the country in which this program supposedly aired is evident, and no one in the clip speaks a word of dialogue.

      The video can be pegged as fake for a number of reasons, chief among them that if such a horrible accident had truly occurred during the recording of a television show, it would not have been broadcast, and so we’d expect to be viewing the action “raw” as captured by a single camera. Yet the clip has obviously been cleanly edited (to include cuts to the judges’ reactions) and has been subject to post-production (to add graphic overlays), simulating the appearance of something that was prepared or aired as part of a finished program. (Not to mention that the bowman fails to evince the least bit of horror or surprise at having “accidentally” shot his partner in the head.)

      The clip appears to be a promotion for the CULT Cola energy drink, a can of which the “victim” ostentatiously takes from one of the judges and places atop his head — with the label properly facing the camera — after failing at multiple efforts to balance an apple on his noggin.

    I bet the drapes matches the carpet, if you know what I mean… Because brown does go really good with cream, maybe we should consult an interior designer?
