Here is a preview for Ninja Assassin starring Korean superstar simply named Rain.
The movie looks amazing… directed by James McTeigue and produced by the Wachowski Brothers (Matrix Series)
Megan Fox is NOT in this movie but…
Fun Facts:
Megan Fox openly expressed her interest in Korean star Rain and also a desire to date him. Exactly how big is the Korean megastar? He simply replied with “I’m not interested”. Fox has indeed extended a dinner date to Rain through her manager but was rejected by the Korean star who was “not interested”. Fox loves such challenges and has no plans to give up. She stated she would continue extending her invite to Rain, hoping that he would agree to meet up someday.
In conclusion… Megan Fox digs Asian guys. Perhaps Rain just wasn’t interested in tattooing her face to his body.

Health Canada is issuing a recall on various Baby Float toys that were sold between 2003 and 2009. Approximately 300,000 of the recalled products were sold at various retailers in Canada. Major retailers include Walmart, Shoppers Drug Mart, Home Hardware, Canadian Tire, Zellers, Samko, Toys ‘R’ Us, and Loblaws.
The manufacturer of these toys is Aqua-Leisure Industries of Avon, Massachusettes.
Hazard: The leg straps in the seat of the float can tear, causing children to unexpectedly fall into or under the water, posing a risk of drowning.
I’m sure there are a lot of Winnipegers with these. We have an amazing weekend ahead of us so before you head to the beach make sure to check if your float toy is on this list.
If you have one, you should contact Aqua-Leisure Industries for a full refund. They can be contacted at 1-866-807-3998 or by going to their website.

Here is video of Michael Jackson’s last recorded rehearsal at the Staples Centre in Los Angles. He was rehearsing for his O2 Arena performances in London.
You would never think that 2 days later he’d die of heart complications.
Damn. These concerts would have been legendary.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers lose their season opener 19-17 to the Edmonton Eskimos.
The Bombers had a slow start, down 9-2 at the half. But they would out-score the Esks in the 4th. With 5 seconds left, the Bombers found themselves in a position to tie the game with a field-goal. Bombers kicker Alexis Serna’s kick was just short in completing an amazing comeback by the boys in Blue and Gold.
The Bombers next game is their home-opener at the Canad Inns Stadium on Friday July 10 against the Calgary Stampeders.
