Happy New Year! Sorry for the delay in updates but I was enjoying some time off. Back to it now…
Added 5 new stills from “The Children of Huang Shi”.
Also update on the Golden Globe situation in light of the ongoing writer’s strike. It’s expected to be announced sometime today, that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association will be holding a very scaled back version of the awards show this year. There will be no award show banquet like years past. Instead, winners will be announced on NBC as part of a news press conference. Afterwards, winners can pick up their awards and speak to the press. The usual parties may still be held. There is no word at this time if Jonathan will be in Los Angeles this Sunday to attend any various parties or be on hand if he were to win.
**Update**
It’s official. From HFPA:
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association today announced that the recipients of Golden Globe Awards in 25 categories will be revealed during an hour-long HFPA press conference at The Beverly Hilton to be covered live by NBC News beginning at 6:00 pm PST on January 13. “The 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards” NBC telecast and champagne dinner in The Beverly Hilton’s International Ballroom is officially cancelled.
Added several new stills to the Gallery:
There’s also news that “The Children of Haung Shi” may be retitled to “The Bitter Sea”.
Added several new articles to the Press section (special thanks to Rhiannon for transcribing a couple of these):
Scans from Details magazine were added to the Gallery. The article was also added to the Press section.
Update about Jonathan’s TV appearances this week:
Jonathan is scheduled as a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno this Thursday, November 8. However, due to the writer’s guild strike, it’s likely this appearance will be canceled as NBC is now set to air repeats this week. Jonathan is still scheduled to be on Live with Regis and Kelly on Friday, November 9. That show is not affected by the strike. It’s also expected that Jonathan will be make an appearance on The View sometime this month.
Additionally, the charity concert set for this Friday in New York has been canceled. It’s not known if it will be rescheduled. It may be folded into the NY premiere of the movie. Details will be posted as soon as they are announced.
Reports on the Tara Hill protest held last Saturday are now coming in. You can view some photos from the event on Just Jared. 1 photo from the event was added to the Gallery. More will be added when possible.
From the Irish Independent:
Protesters play same sad tune
Monday September 24 2007
Perhaps there should be a prize for Protest of the Year. If it did exist, the front-runners would surely be the people who mounted the demonstration on the Hill of Tara yesterday.
More than 3,000 protesters against the construction of the M3 motorway close to the ancient site formed themselves into the shape of a harp for an aerial photograph. The Irish harp has been called a symbol of peace and culture. Yesterday it symbolised peaceful protest and recalled cultures stretching back to the beginning of history and beyond.
But it had its modern side as well. The organisers brought in the famous actors Stuart Townsend and Jonathan Rhys Meyers to support their case. Evidently they understood the value of publicity and celebrity. And Mr Rhys Meyers, in a speech to the crowd, showed that he had been well briefed. He made an important point when he said that not only was the motorway project “horrible”, so was the development it would bring.
Motorways are not horrible in themselves, but as the Tara protesters claim they may be built in the wrong place. Objectors to the present project have proposed an alternative route and/or the rebuilding of the Navan railway line. Their pleas have gone unheard, and in all probability the M3 will run as planned through the Tara-Skryne Valley.
That, however, does not have to mean permission for ugly and harmful associated development. Along with the archaeological finds, we must preserve the beauty of the landscape.

Just a head’s up that I’m doing a cleaning up of the Jonathan Rhys Meyers fanlisting.
I’m sending out emails (slowly) to every member. If emails get bounced back for not existing, I will attempt to find new emails or be forced to delete members for not having current information.
You can check the list to review your member info. It’s very easy to update your own information to be sure it’s current. If you have any problems doing so, you can contact me for help. And of course, join the fanlisting if you aren’t already a member.
