That's double what she was originally ordered to pay!! DOUBLE!

Judge Belvin Perry ruled on Friday that Casey Anthony must pay the Orange Country Sheriff's Office $217,499.23 for being a huge liar. After the judge asked the police department to resubmit documents, he discovered Casey owed a lot more than originally calculated for the costs of the Caylee search. That brings the monster of an invoice to look like:
  • $145.662.21 to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office 
  • $61,505.12 to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement 
  • $10,283.90 to the Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation 
  • $50 to the State Attorney’s Office

    TOTAL: $217,499.23 
That's insane! But, I don't feel sorry for her at all. Her lies cost the investigation hundreds of thousands of dollars plus valuable time and stress for everyone involved in the search.

She may have gotten away with not going to jail, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have to pay up.

On October 4th, Apple's new CEO, Tim Cook, will make his first lengthy public appearance to reveal the upcoming iPhone 5.

This is going to be a big day, not just because of the new iPhone, but because this is Tim's chance to impress the press. He's only got one chance for his first impression. Let's hope it's a good one.

I'm sure he'll be telling us all about iCloud, new Apps, and iOS as well.

Who's excited for iPhone 5? I am!!!!!
Last night, my sister and I went to the Katy Perry's California Dreams Tour concert at Conseco Fieldhouse. It was easily the best concert I've been to all summer.

Janele Monae opened the show, followed by DJ Skeet Skeet. I don't understand this trend of having a DJ as an opening act, though. First, DJ Pauly D at Britney Spear's Femme Fatale Tour, and now another guy that I've never heard of. All they did was play music and tell us to sing. Anyways...

Not only is Katy a great performer, she's an awesome person. During one of her songs, she brought fans up on stage with her. A little girl wanted to take a picture with her, so while everyone else walked off stage at the end of the song, Katy stayed on stage with the girl and took a picture with her. She even checked to make sure that the picture turned out well.

She performed:
  1. Teenage Dream
  2. Hummingbird Heartbeat
  3. Waking Up in Vegas
  4. Ur So Gay
  5. Peacock
  6. I Kissed a Girl
  7. Circle the Drain
  8. E.T.
  9. Who Am I Living For?
  10. Pearl
  11. Not Like The Movies
  12. The One That Got Away
  13. Thinking of You
  14. Hot N Cold
  15. Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)
  16. I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Whitney Houston cover)
  17. Firework
  18. California Gurls
The best performance of the evening was "Firework."

Check out pictures and videos from the concert below:






























Sunday night I saw "Contagion." What drew me in was the Allstar cast: Marion Cotillard, Matt Damon, Laurence Fishburn, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Kate Winslet. It was a good movie, but I have one little complaint about it. It was too long. Parts of it felt very drug out, but maybe it felt that way because I was expecting something faster-paced. Nevertheless, "Contagion" did its job--it freaked me out!
Overall Score: 82%
Check out the synopsis and trailer below:

"Contagion" follows the rapid progress of a lethal airborne virus that kills within days. As the fast-moving epidemic grows, the worldwide medical community races to find a cure and control the panic that spreads faster than the virus itself. At the same time, ordinary people struggle to survive in a society coming apart.


Friday night I saw Rise of Planet of the Apes, and I was thoroughly impressed, not only by the action sequences, but more so by the visual effects. It's amazing to me how we can create such vivid, realistic animated animals from a computer and have them interact with the actors on screen.
Overall Score: 89%
I don't want to ruin the movie for you, so here is what IMDb says the synopsis is:

During experiments to find a cure for Alzheimer's disease, a genetically-enhanced chimpanzee uses its greater intelligence to lead other apes to freedom.

If you want a more detailed plot (watch out for spoilers), look here or watch the trailer below.

I walked out on the deck this morning and this is what I saw:



I created an original wallpaper for The Edge of Glory from the stills I captured of Lady Gaga's music video. Check out the preview below.

P.S. THERE'S MORE! Check out the rest of the Lady Gaga Wallpapers I've made by clicking the thumbnails in the right sidebar of this page! :)

"Hey, hey, hey. Come on! I know what guilt is. It's one of those touchy-feely words that people throw around that don't really mean anything. You know, like maternal or addiction."

"Grace! It's Christmas for goodness sake! Think about the baby Jesus. Up in that tower letting his hair down, so that the three wise men could climb up and spin the dreidel and see if there's six more weeks of winter!"

"You say potato, I say vodka."

"OK, Rule number 1: Unless you're served in a frosted glass, never come within 4 feet of my lips."

"Oh honey somebody got some flowers...or as i like to call them "poor people's jewelry."

"Honey, whats this, whats happening, whats going on here?"

"Oh... So, Wilma, honey, listen. I forget, what are you these days, gay or straight? Wait, wait, wait. Let me do a little test. Okay, there's a penis and a vagina in a tent. And it's on fire. Which do you save?"

"Oh, Honey. You're simple, you're shallow and you're a common whore. That's why we're soul mates."

"I'm gonna be so mad when my mood elevators wear off."

"God didn't give me the ability to play the piano, or paint a picture or have compassion. But... he did give me the ability to crack a walnut with my hoo-ha."

"I want a man who can make a woman feel like a girl. And who can make that girl feel like a slut. And who can make that slut feel like a woman."

"You'll do it like every self-respecting woman does. Get on your back, point your heels to Jesus and think of hand bags."

"Excuse me, lady, would you happen to have a breath mint? You do? Well, pop it in your mouth, woman. It's not doing any good in your purse!"

"So inappropriate... smoking in the office. Would anyone mind if I took my boob out for a second?"

"Good Lord. I can't believe I'm at a public pool. Why doesn't somebody just pee directly on me?"


I was browsing through the new singles on iTunes today, and saw a song by none other than the amazing JoJo! Then I thought to myself, "What ever happened to her?"

I did some Googling, and apparently she's been in a legal battle with her record label for a couple of years.

Anyways, what do you think of "Disaster"?
