1 Fact: 1 billion people do not have clean drinking water. Where: Africa and India are most affected.
The threat: More people are lost in the world through this situation than war.
The solution: We can make a difference through UNICEF Tap Project. If you want to, please do.
True fact 2: For as little as $10, one person can have clean drinking water for a lifetime.
That’s like a beer at a Hollywood club with the tip. Amazing aye! Act. Bump this post on too. Let’s flow. :)

Hollywood Actor Cliff Curtis has Courage To Love the Middle East
Hollywood actor and film producer, Cliff Curtis holds his early edition copy of Courage To Love, the new Romeo & Juliet novel by author Robert Ellis. The modern story of forbidden love that is set in Israel and the Gaza strip, is getting good early buzz in Hollywood. Curtis describes the book as being “beautiful.”
Of this pivotal novel, Curtis features here in his hand, filmmaker Bill Birrell says: “I have been looking for a human scale story about the Middle East: but one that will both entertain and provoke. In short I believe Courage to Love is it. Not since Elie Wiesel, the Nobel prize-winning writer, has an author distilled these conflicts into such human terms. Put another way, while the story touches on significant issues, it is really a tale of two young people and their struggle to be allowed to love each other.”
Cliff, a newly wed himself, is all about love these days and furthering love’s potential in a world wind epic romance he finds himself caught up in, in his real life. His Hollywood career also has elevation. Curtis currently stars as Firelord Orzai in M. Night Shyamalan‘s 3D film franchise, The Last Airbender and has just signed on to two films starring opposite, Zoe Saldana (of Star Trek and Avatar film franchises fame) where he’s cast as Zoe’s closest family member. Coming up, Curtis will also star with Sigourney Weaver and Bruce Willis.

Some things are just meant to be. In 1958 in Spain, surrealist artist Salvador Dali released his manifesto “Nuclear Mysticism,” he also painted Rosa Meditativa in a year of historic revolution. 50 years later in California, author Robert Ellis wrote Courage To Love a modern day romance novel, asking the question and painting a compelling saga of what happens when an Arab falls in love with a Jew in Israel and Gaza?
This timely novel which has Dali’s painting as its book cover, arrived on Monday from the publisher, and today at the Wayfarers Chapel in California, a red rose, that matches the color of Dali’s rose, blossomed in the Chapel’s garden as a welcoming symbol of Peace to greet this book’s arrival to the Chapel’s coastal book store. Surreal but real. Some things are just meant to be.

giving your romantic

the wings to fly again

A major Hollywood film director couldn’t have created this epic story line better as Russell Brand proposed to Katy Perry, and the pop star said “yes.”
This is such a romantic story.
Brand and Perry are reportedly a lovestruck couple four months in the making and are being said to want to marry within 6 months.
How did Brand, 34, propose to Katy, 25?
The UK Sun reports that Russell proposed to Katy at the Taj Rambagh Palace hotel in Jaipur, India.
A hotel worker allegedly spilled the details, saying: “He had organized a special dining experience. We set a table in a garden with candles everywhere. They arrived in a horse and carriage with a glass of champagne and we served them dinner. At midnight they enjoyed fireworks while sitting on an elephant, which Mr Brand specially requested. Then they were taken to the Mughal Garden which was decorated by flowers and candlelight.
“Mr Brand had given his butler the diamond ring to hide among the flowers. Miss Perry found it, he proposed, and she immediately said ‘Yes’. After that they requested 45 minutes’ privacy. They looked like they were beautifully in love.”
How romantic. An Epic British-American romance is occurring between Brand and Perry. To read a novel about epic young love, order online and read this book, Courage To Love, by Californian author, Robert Ellis.
The slim novel with A MASSIVE story line… is a cute tale into the intricate mysteries of love that two star crossed young lovers unexpectedly awaken in each other while both fighting for their lives in a hospital that’s under attack. The beautiful cover artwork is by surrealist painter Salvador Dali.
Congrats Russell Brand and Katy Perry on your mammoth new love!

You the people voted in 2009. Here’s the top ten Hollywood male stars that you selected to show the most promise to shine as celebrities you love and want to see more of for your entertainment heading into 2010. Two break out stars top this list. Democracy in action is alive and well in Hollywood. Thanks for voting.
10. Jermaine Jackson
9. Julian Lennon
8. Justin Gatson
7. Justin Timberlake
6. Brad Pitt
5. Salvador Dali
4. David Carradine
3. Michael Jackson
2. Taylor Lautner
1. Alex Meraz – Paul of Twilight’s New Moon wolf pack.
Summation: The top ten most popular men voted by you worldwide in Hollywood on Horiwood.Com reveal that Native American Indian actors making a comeback in Hollywood mainstream entertainment were the big story of the year.
Young men who would protect women at any cost against danger; who would also have a sense of brotherhood and values of team; had supernatural power to turn into someone else and…. who would take their shirts off to entertain audiences of teens and housewives moms worldwide … were also what Alex Meraz and Taylor Lautner did really well this year to make them the #1 and #2 most interesting male stars in Hollywood heading into 2010.
Stephenie Meyer and Kristen Stewart also share in their honors today, helping co-create and star with these young Hollywood superstars. Theirs is a story of great casting, but having the talent, determination and doing the graft to deliver the goods when the opportunity called. A great effort.
Three dead artists also made the list.
Brad Pitt‘s King of Hollywood romance and super dad title got him through, Jermaine Jackson‘s ability to inspire hope for his family and their fanbase in a time of global grief inspired us all; and the son of a Beatle‘s return to music along with a break out superstar from the UK in Robert Pattinson and his ability to portray a love story, rounds out the top ten men of Hollywood this year.
As three of these stars are no longer with us, Michael Jackson’s two sons rank next, but for their childhood’s sake and their privacy… these three men are the next top stars that you voted as your entertainers this year.
11. Kanye West: his controversial ego as well as his art brought him home this year. He is the only celebrity who the President called a “jack ass” off the record this year. He’s a consummate showman and a ‘bad boy of hip hop’ we love.
12. Keith Lewis for his controversial handling of the Carrie Prejean debacle with the Miss California Miss USA Pageant for Donald Trump, that entertained us all by revealing hypocrisy in most of us in 2009 from a beauty pageant podium. Lewis proved to be a clever producer of entertainment, asking the world the question… what is right, just and humane when it comes to ‘The Truth?’
13. Sir Richard Branson because he’s innovative, a fearless and creative billionaire who still wants to ride around with a naked supermodel on his back while kite skiing. Ridiculous!!! But Branson knows how to get his press and promote his air travel ventures with a sense of leisurely show biz magnitude. He’s still an entertaining actor today.

The Top 100 Stars of Hollywood List 2009 has been counted here in Hollywood by Horiwood.Com. Artists are some of Hollywood’s most admired stars this year.
Surrealist artist, Salvador Dali is like Michael Jackson. Their artistry still packs a punch from beyond the grave. With actor Robert Pattinson playing Dali’s life this year in the film, Little Ashes combined with Dali’s surrealist art fans worldwide garnered Mr Dali his number 18th hottest ranking of all stars who trended in Hollywood this year on Horiwood.Com.
Anyone who chose to paint John, The Apostle of Love like Dali chose to do and did it so well… is amazing in my Hollywood black book… and check out his art for a real visual treat.
This artwork is one of my favs: St John of The Cross.

Actress Natalie Portman is considering reading the audio book of Courage To Love, a novel by Californian author Robert Ellis.
The novel is a delightful tale about forbidden romance in the Middle East as two young people are forced to transcend their centuries old warring differences acknowledging love in their hearts as their feelings escalate for each other.
Perhaps the depth of soul and beauty of Portman will do justice to such an important story in bringing love and peace to life in the world where most needed. Stunning press today.
Go here, to order this amazing book. Cover artwork is by the legendary artist Salvador Dali that Twilight actor Robert Pattinson played in the film Little Ashes. Thanks Natalie.

Robert Pattinson says that he doesn’t have a problem going naked in a film if he landed the right part. The British actor said: “I think it would depend on what it is. And I don’t think a lot of people would really want to see that. I think it would ruin the illusion!”
What is the big deal? He’s already dropped his kilt before in Little Ashes, the Salvador Dali biopic he starred in. So why is this news today? Oh, because Levi Johnston won’t.

Poems are not . . . simply emotions . . . they are experiences. For the sake of a single poem, you must see many cities, many people and things . . . and know the gestures which small flowers make when they open in the morning. You must be able to think back to streets in unknown neighborhoods, to unexpected encounters, and to partings you have long seen coming; to days of childhood whose mystery is still unexplained . . .; to childhood illnesses . . . to mornings by the sea, to the sea itself, to seas, to nights of travel . . . and it is still not enough. – The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge
