Watch Love Happens Online

No Comments »

If you love romantic comedies, then you’ll enjoy the new movie Love Happens, starring Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart. This tender romantic story is a perfect “date movie,” and there is basically nothing in it to offend.

A great evening in would be if you watch Love Happens online with a big bowl of popcorn or take-away pizza. It’s also a good flick for a night in with friends. In Love Happens, Aaron Eckhart plays a motivational speaker with a best selling self-help book who teaches a seminar at the hotel in which Aniston’s character owns a florist’s shop.

She is rather a mess of insecurities and has sworn off men altogether, until she meets Eckhart’s seemingly wise self-help guru and is intrigued by him. Alas, he has his own problems.

Watch Love Happens online and you’ll discover that he is an even bigger bundle of insecurities than she is. He may look confident, but this self help sensei has his own problems and it takes the help of an ordinary woman (if one can call someone as pretty as Aniston “ordinary”) for him to come to terms with them.

When we, his seminar audience, and Aniston’s character see him walk across hot coals with bare feet, we believe that he is possessed of extreme confidence. But this handsome, “perfect” man who helps thousands of people is human after all.

The movie was filmed in Vancouver and Seattle, the setting for the story, so the film has an edgy bohemian chic perfect for dressing Aniston up in a number of outfits that may be too casual for New York, but are perfect in the Pacific northwest. You could even watch Love Happens online with the sound off so as to concentrate on all the great ideas for perfecting the kind of bohemian style that Aniston pulls off so well here.

There’s no problem with watching the handsome Eckhart – him with the lantern jaw and dimpled chin – as he wears a series of sartorially perfect creations, either. So if it is a slow Friday or Saturday night and it’s raining and cold and you simply want to stay in and entertain your brain without having to make too much of a mental investment, you should watch Love Happens online and believe in fairy tales for a couple of stress-free hours.


Entertainment: Rafa Nadal – The New Star

No Comments »

Sometimes called ‘Rafa,’ Rafael Nadal is a local of Spain who has made a massive impact in the world of tennis.

Born June 3, 1986 in Manacor, Mallorca, Rafael Nadal is the child of Sebastian and Ana Maria Nadal. His sister, Maria Isabel, is 5 years younger than Rafael and is his only sibling.

Standing 6’1′ and weighing 178 lbs, Rafael Nadal changed into a professional tennis player in 2001 after having played since four years of age. Fans shouldn’t let this young age trick them as Rafael Nadal nabbed his first championship at only eight years old.

Under the guidance and teaching of Toni Nadal, his uncle, Rafael Nadal started learning how to play tennis extraordinarily early in life as is evident from his early championship.

Toni, who remains Rafael’s coach, is a particularly crucial part of this kid’s success.

In 2005, he won 11 titles and also captured recognition as the ‘Most Improved Player’ for 2005 as named by the ATP.

In June 2006, Rafael Nadal won his 2nd Roland Garros crown and also scored his 100th claycourt career victory.

That same month, Rafael Nadal turned twenty and finished his teen years with major success.

Even though Rafael Nadal is right-handed, he plays left-handed and produces a backhand using both. As with many top athletes in their sport, Rafael Nadal is managed by IMG and is sometimes found in Nike clothes.

If you are asking for an autograph, be certain to include a SASE ( self-addressed stamped envelope ) together with your request.

It is usually recommended that fans not send any item that they cannot afford to lose, for example prized possessions and/or limited edition collectibles.

As with all mailed autograph requests, there’s no guarantee of an answer.

Depending on the athlete’s schedule, autographs may be authentic, secretarial, pre-printed or not possible to provide. Patience is the key to requesting autographs by mail, particularly when you are talking about an athlete as popular as Rafael Nadal.

Letters and requests should be mailed to:
