Evangeline Lilly thinks people have to stop having babies to save the planet.

The actress - who is been dating her co-star Dominic Monaghan since they met on the set of 'Lost' in 2004 - believes people are procreating at an alarming rate and must slow down their baby-making or adopt to "protect" the Earth.

She said: "For a very long time, I have had intentions to adopt. We have a huge population problem on Earth. We're not going to protect the Earth the way we need to protect it if we don't stop making so many babies."

Despite her views on adoption, the 30-year-old beauty is desperate to experience the "gift" of pregnancy and will "allow" herself one baby of her own.

Evangeline - who plays fugitive Kate Austen in 'Lost' - said: "I have always wanted to have a child of my own and I will always want to go through the gift that women have been given to experience that, so I hope to be a mother at some point. I think I can allow myself one child - and from then on, I think I would have to adopt. It makes sense not to add to the population problem."

I don't even like American Dad but I can't wait to see this! Animated Jim James♥

Okay. Hmm. This is a delicate one. I know that in the little bullet points of our Ep Discussion posts, we say that any spoilers from the current episode are allowed - that makes sense, it's a running flail post lol. And in light of the recent ~mole~ on set, lol, and in light of how awesome Greg Yaitanes & Staff have been lately, I think it's safe to say that people who do read spoilers know a fair bit about tonight's episode especially. So while spoilers from 6x07 are allowed in here, we're going to ask that if you're really worried about being spoiled, just be careful in reading the comments. The choice is up to you, but do please know that a lot of stuff for this episode is floating around out there and will probably come out ahead of the episode in the comments here. If this is a problem, please let us know! It's just a hard situation and we'll probably have a discussion about it in the future to see what the majority of the group wants, but for now, just be cautious if you're concerned. ♥

One of my favourite comics gets the casting call treatment. And a pretty picspam.

Thurston Moore: From Sonic Youth to Book Publisher



Thurston Moore may or may not be ecstatically peaceful, but he is certainly busy. In addition to running his own record label, Ecstatic Peace!, playing in the pioneering experimental noise rock band Sonic Youth, and collaborating on music with everyone from DJ Spooky to Lydia Lunch, he recently started his own book imprint, also called Ecstatic Peace.

The first book, photographer Justine Kurland’s “This Train Is Bound For Glory,” will be available in bookstores early next year. Sonic Youth is currently heading for Europe for some tour dates, then more in the U.S., and an extended European tour next summer. Moore will receive a lifetime achievement award from U.K. music magazine “Q” at the end of this month. The band even appeared on “Gossip Girls” last night.


Wall Street Journal: The book industry is facing falling sales figures and seems to be in decline. Why start a book imprint now?

Moore: Why not? I can never let something as incredible as a recession stop me. I feel more empowered now that a lot of people are throwing their hands up. You don’t start a record label or a book imprint to get rich.

( Moore: I use my iPhone as an iPod because I can, but I hate the way it sounds. The computer manically compresses sounds. )

Welcome to the House MD Whiteboard Discussion post for 6x07, "Known Unknowns"!



As outlined in the community info, the Whiteboard for your respective area is where all your random, squeeish thoughts are to be posted as the episode plays. As always, please respect your fellow House fans and keep any future spoilers very vague, if you mention anything at all. Some fans like to remain spoiler-free. Thanks!

In addition, please refrain from posting episode reactions to anything but the Whiteboard for the three hour block of time between the eastern and pacific airings. If you make a post about the episode in your personal journal, link to it in a reply to this Whiteboard, and I will add the link to this entry.

Enjoy!

Note: The next four episodes will be all new. Here is a tentative schedule for the rest of the season.

(  More hips and lips )

Meanwhile, continuing with her motto of “There’s nothing Lauren Conrad can do that I won’t copy and do tackier” Speidi is set to promote their latest endeavor –a book.

Earlier this year, Lauren topped the New York Times Bestseller list with her debut novel LA Candy. The book was a fictional account of a girl thrust into stardom when she is chosen for a reality TV show. It is currently being adapted into a movie by the producers of Twilight.



Not to be outdone. Heidi is set to take the literary world by storm with Compton Cookie, a fictionalized account of a girl who becomes the sidekick on a hit reality television show then proceeds to sabotage her best friend’s reputation with false rumors before marrying her douchebag boyfriend. The rights were bought by Ryan Seacrest and it is currently being adapted into a straight-to-tv movie for the Lifetime channel.

Edited to say: If you actually thought Compton Cookie was a real book then you may want to give up on life. Just sayin...

With David Bowie as her dad and Queen Iman as her mom this girl can be nothing but fierce. And I don't give a shit if Queen Iman looks homeless she is still the fiercest bitch on the planet. Bow Down.

David Bowie. Cher. Bjork. Lady Gaga. Which one is not like the others?



The blond, bewigged, neck-braced lady of the hour, that’s who. Unlike the other musical acts on that list, she has yet to come up with a song to justify her over-the-top wardrobe and persona.

In another explosive recorded audio tape obtained exclusively by RadarOnline.com, Lindsay Lohan's assistant Jenni Muro reveals her fear that Lindsay was killing herself.

The taped phone call is between Jenni Muro and Michael Lohan. In it, Jenni angrily tells Michael her fears about Lindsay's fragile state and expresses her opinion about the destructiveness of Lindsay's then-romantic relationship with DJ Samantha Ronson.

"I am trying to save your daughter's life every day," Jenni tells Michael on the tape.

Showing the depths of her fear that Lindsay will harm herself, Jenni tells Michael that she wants to stop working for Lindsay "because I don't want it on my watch either."

You better believe Khloé Kardashian was watching last night’s two hour wedding special on E!.  The new Mrs. Odom just took to her blog to share a few never-before-seen photos from her wedding and give her personal take on last night’s wedding special.
 
Khloé wrote, "It was both incredible and stressful reliving those crazy two weeks. With the last minute wedding planning, and dealing with the different reactions of my family members, it was difficult enough the first time around! LOL."
