  • Sydney Gunman Man Haron Monis Was Well-Known by Police But Not on Any Terror Watch List

    Just one day after a hostage situation at a Lindt Chocolate Cafe in Sydney, Australia's financial district ended with three dead after law enforcement stormed in, the country is left to ponder how something so sinister could have even played out there. We now know that Man Haron Monis was the 50-year-old gunman who fancied himself a sheikh with a personal agenda, but what is not clear is how he was free in the first place.Monis had a long history of brushes with the law and he was charged with everything from sexual assault to sending hate mail to the families of fallen Australian solders who died in Afghanistan. Perhaps the most horrific thing he had been charged with before yesterday was being an accessory to his former wife's murder.Apparently, Monis's latest girlfriend stabbed his ex and then set her on fire and he was actually out on bail for his part in the crime when he decided to take 17 hostages yesterday morning and demand that a flag of ISIS be brought to him.Sydney locals's shock morphed into anger when they realized that not only did their own law enforcement seem to drop the ball with Monis, but even with his outward love of Muslim extremist behavior he actually was not on any kind of terror watch list. This fact has left Prime Minister Tony Abbott deeply disturbed.

  • Camille Cosby Is Defending Her Husband as Scandal Surrounding Bill Cosby Deepens

    Bill Cosby's life and business has been completely turned upside down over the last several weeks by a series of allegations that are shocking and impossible to ignore. Had just one or two women gone public with allegations of sexual misconduct, then Cosby would probably be standing on much stronger footing right now. Instead, more than two dozen women have come forward to paint the popular actor and comedian as, at best, manipulative and, at worst, a calculating serial rapist who has spent decades drugging and assaulting young women in Hollywood. Through it all, Cosby's wife of more than 50 years has stood by his side, keeping silent — at least until now.Camille Cosby has finally decided to speak up and out on behalf of her husband. She issued a simple statement that was intended to assure people that Cosby is indeed as good a man as the characters he has portrayed."The man I met, and fell in love with, and whom I continue to love, is the man you all knew through his work. He is a kind man, a generous man, a funny man, and a wonderful husband, father and friend. He is the man you thought you knew," explained Camille.She also went on to liken this scandal involving her husband to the alleged UVA gang rape story that "Rolling Stone" ran before double-checking its sources.

  • Idina Menzel Performs Joni Mitchell's 'River' on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' [WATCH]

    Idina Menzel put out a Christmas album titled "Holiday Wishes" in October. The singer takes on the usual standards like "White Christmas," "Silent Night" and "Baby It's Cold Outside," but her shining moment comes closer to the end of the album. Menzel decided to include a breathtaking version of Joni Mitchell's Christmas-themed classic "River." Her performance of the tune on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" blew viewers away.Yes, we know you can sing, Idina. We have all heard "Let It Go" a million times, but this performance is devastatingly beautiful. Menzel lends her Broadway pipes and pop sensibilities to Mitchell's tune and lets the songwriter's words do the rest."I wish I had a river so long / I would teach my feet to fly / Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on / I made my baby say goodbye," she sings in the video below. Check it out."River" is off Mitchell's 1971 release "Blue." It is regarded as one of the folk artist's best pieces.

  • Electric Wizard North American Tour: UK Band Playing First American Gigs in 10 Years

    Electric Wizard is a U.K. doom metal outfit known for their lengthy tunes and NSFW mentality. With nearly 20 years under their belts since their eponymous debut, the group's biggest chart hit, "Time to Die," was released in September. Now, with the iron hot, the boys — and girl — will strike in North America for the first time in 10 years.Immediately after the album soared up international charts, singer Jus Oborn hinted that a U.S. run would be coming."The album is meant to be played live," he told Occult in October. "I think that's pretty obvious from the way it sounds, which is raw and brutal. To be honest, we are probably going to end up touring the f--king world by the end of this album's life ... I'd like to get to South America eventually, and the U.S. tour is coming into play around April 2015, and then we'll be back to playing in Europe, so hopefully a world tour by the end of the cycle."The group, also consisting of Liz Buckingham and Clayton Burgess, is pretty much a dyed-in-the-wool 1970s/'80s metal retread.
