After the confident Barrios took the lead, Sharapova won straight 7 games and eventually beat out Kristina by winning 10 of the final 11 remaining sets of the match. She also won in Memphis by not dropping a single set in Febraury, giving her second title this Year.

Avatar 2 would have Release Date Soon

2010-05-13T19:03:00.000-07:00

Avatar 2 production have been promised by James Cameron for the past months now. A number of hints were even dropped, including a rumored aquatic environment setup to be to be installed in the second sequel of Avatar.

This is totally a feasible theory knowing James Cameron’s obsession in Aquatic Life, spending millions submarines running around the ocean. Although most Avatar fans think that the blue cat people were done primarily because of the 3D technology, truth is his interest in that format was because of his passion in photographing underwater life. So Avatar 2 taking place Undertwater is definitely not a long shot but indeed a very close one.

“Part of my focus in the second film is in creating a different environment – a different setting within Pandora. And I’m going to be focusing on the ocean on Pandora, which will be equally rich and diverse and crazy and imaginative, but it just won’t be a rain forest. I’m not saying we won’t see what we’ve already seen; we’ll see more of that as well.” Cameron said in LA Times interview.

Cameron's Avatar 2 plan is to go oceanic. While the third installment, may possibly leaving the Pandora world entirely. “We created a broad canvas for the environment of film. That’s not just on Pandora, but throughout the Alpha Centauri AB system. And we expand out across that system and incorporate more into the story – not necessarily in the second film, but more toward a third film.” said Cameron.

Knowing Cameron for loving to prove people wrong, he did say to skeptics that Avatar 2 will definitely have a release date within the next few months. Avatar 2 is estimated to be done in a span of 3 years according to Cameron. Although having a release date doesn't necessarily mean any guarantee of the Avatar 2 production. Studios are still quiet and giving out no statement regarding the release, since they are still waiting for the actual production before jumping into any conclusion.

Producer Jon Landau, said less than a month ago that Cameron is considering making other film project before eventually creating the sequel to Avatar. If it's that's the case, let's just hope that it won't take another 10 years before we could see the new Pandora. The elusive release date may give us clue on what's Cameron's mind is headed next.

On the Latest Sports News with JaMarcus Russell’s career in Oakland, the Raiders officially released him on Thursday. The Raiders made him the No. 1 overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft.

For three years playing as a starting QB for the Raiders, he only managed to win seven times. Although technically decision were already made by skeptics two weeks since Oakland acquired Jason Campbell from Washington to take over at quarterback.

Al Davis may have become loveless to the stronged armed but unproductive player he drafted in 2007. This verdict might make him the NFL’s biggest draft bust to date, paying him more than $39 million for three years of service. He would now be joining the likes of Ki-Jana Carter, Ryan Leaf, Akili Smith, Charles Rogers, Tony Mandarich, and Heath Shuler on that list.

On the last week’s minicamp, Russell told that he would keep showing and coming to work until they told him to stop. In the first five practices, he looked pretty decent but in the weekend he got less work and eventually cut ties with him. “We wish him well,” John Herrera said, senior executive of the Raiders.

He played his three seasons with Miami and Washington.

Besides winning for only seven games for 25 starts, he extended the Raiders and NFL-worst streak to loose atleast 11 games for seven straight seasons. It still a blurr for now whether any team will give Russell another shot since he's only 24.

That means Russell has been paid more than $5 million per win, more than $2 million per touchdown pass and more than $100,000 per completion.

With competitor Gilt's discount on designer shoes features, Annabel Tollman, celebrity stylist, has been hired by eBay to take on the role as the “brand ambassador.” She will be involved from tweeting to curating editorial landing pages and hosting digital videos on shopping, bargain hunting, outfitting and fashion trends activities according to Women’s Wear Daily.

Given the fact that Fashion.eBay.com will cover all aspects of trend forecasting and content creation, offering a wealth of shopping resources, it would transform Fashion.eBay.com as an every other retail-meets-editorial outlet.

The site has all of the makings to become a bona fide rival for the aforementioned retail mavens. It also just goes to show that these days retail-driven online destinations are realizing that content creation is as essential as a checkout aisle.

Conan O'Brien First Post Interview in 60 Minutes

2010-04-29T18:37:00.000-07:00

In Conan O'Brien's first post interview with Steve Kroft of "60 Minutes" since leaving the "Tonight Show", he said that if he was in the position of Jay Leno, he wouldn't have taken back the show less than a year after publicly handing it off to a new host, which is him.

"That's me, you know, Everyone's got their own way ... of doing things." O'Brien Sunday broadcast interview, excerpts of which were released Thursday by CBS. During his sold-out concert tour, O'Brien mentioned the reason why he decided to leave NBC which he said, "this relationship is going to be toxic and maybe we just need to go our separate ways."

Conan's Tonight Show got poor tv ratings that enabled long time rival CBS' David Letterman show to surge ahead to first place while Leno's new show and time slot were threatened to be pulled since he wasn't able to replicate his Tonight Show tv ratings.

NBC tried to offer TV Shows host Leno a half-hour show at 11:35 p.m. and letting O'Brien keep the "Tonight" show name and begin a half hour later. O'Brien said no, since it will lead Jimmy Falon's "Late Night Show" time slot to be pushed further, so he denied this request by NBC, resulting for him to leave the network instead. Leno, who never wanted to leave "Tonight" in the first place, slipped back into his old home. "I wouldn't have done that, I'm not sure these people even really want me here," O'Brien said.

He didn't seem that his relationship with NBC still has a future. So he decided to sign with TBS to launch a new talk show in November. During the few weeks between his public decision and actual exit, O'Brien became something of a folk hero. An Internet "Team Coco" tribe rose up to support him, and O'Brien's ratings soared for shows with pointed jabs about his bosses.

NBC forbade O'Brien to give interviews that could be printed or telecast before May 1 on his bouyout. The "60 Minutes" telecast will be aired May 2. The interview excerpts may be a technical violation of that NBC buy out deal, although they are not expected to pursue. NBC and a Leno spokesman had no comment about O'Brien's statements.

Jamarcus Russell could be Released by Raiders Soon

2010-04-28T20:33:00.000-07:00

JaMarcus Russell, a former No. 1 overall pick in the NFL during 2007, might be on the verge of getting cut from the Oakland Raiders Roster soon. Just 12 hours earlier, Espn anounced the Latest Sports News report that Russell was set to be cut. Eventually making the Raiders to take a financial risk that is hard to swallow.

But the Raiders having a $39 million investment on him makes it uneasy for them to cut the quarterback just yet. Since the beginning of the trade for Washington Redskins' QB Jason Campbell on Saturday, Russell became the expensive man out for the Raiders. Russell is still owed $6.45 million by Oakland if he stays with the team roster this season.

Al Davis , Oakland's Managing General Partner, could be working to get Russell to take a pay cut before trainingcamp. If Jamarcus, also known as J-Rock, would agree and be at training camp, people can see firsthand if he really weighs 300 pounds, as has been reported.

Last season, after being fined, appearing overweight at training camp, he turned in the worst season by an NFL quarterback in 11 seasons. Teammates have openly questioned his work ethic. Russell only completed 48.8 percent of his passes, with three touchdowns, 11 interceptions and a 50.0 passer rating. He still has $3 million guaranteed this year to go along with a previous $36.1 million paid. He is 7-18 in 25 starts in the NFL.

Although Tom Cable, Raiders head coach, said this weekend that he's not ready to part off with the former No. 1 overall pick. He still consider for Russell to compete for the starting QB job along with Jason Campbell, Bruce Gradkowski, Kyle Boller and Charlie Frye, Cable said.

"What it comes down to is that we've got five quarterbacks now and we're going to have a great competition. There will be some decisions to be made here in the next month or so."

One of those decisions could be whether Russell and his hefty contract remains on the roster. If Russell were to get hurt during a Raiders practice in the offseason or preseason, his full salary would be guaranteed. But for now, Cable is maintaining that the team won't give up on the QB who's won just seven games in his three-year career.

It would be most difficult for Davis to cut Russell knowing that he backed the strong-armed quarterback in a public feud against coach Lane Kiffin, resulting for firing the head coach then, back in 2008. Davis had drafted Russell despite his coach's protests.

"He is a great player. Get over it and coach this team on the field," Davis read from a letter he sent Kiffin before the firing.

Last year, Davis shown some signs that he lost his patience and allowed coach Tom Cable to bench Russell midway through the season. The Raiders had no comment, and neither did Ethan Lock, Russell's agent.
