Hollywood Stars Take Over Broadway

sjunat55 — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 14:20:21 GMT

Jude Law, Hugh Jackmanand Daniel Craig, three big Hollywood leading actors, are doing Broadway this season, Jackman and Craig are actually sharing the stage on the play "A Steady Rain" playing two Chicago cops, while Law is playing Shakespeare's "Hamlet'.

Jude Law is best known for his roles in movies like "The Talented Mr Ripley", "Road to Perditon" and "Cold Mountain" for which he earned an Oscar nomination for Best Actor.. But he's no stranger to Broadway having also earned a Tony nomination for "Indiscretions'.

Jackman is widely known for his Wolverine on the series of X-Men movies, but won Broadway's Tony Award for the musical "The Boy from Oz".

And Daniel Craig, Bond, James Bond. This is his Broadway debut. The play is a sell-out.

I took these photos at the stage doors of the Broadhust Theatre on 44th Street where Law signs autographs for fans after each performance, and at the Schoenfeld, on 45th, where Jackman and Craig come out the stage door together, shake hands and greet the audience...but no autographs, please.

Photos 1-4 show Jude Law, 5-6 Hugh Jackman and 7-8 Daniel "007" Craig,

"We're Fired Up, Can't Take No More".. UCLA Students Chant

Pixel — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 07:22:50 GMT

For days UCLA students have been in an uproar over possible increase in tuition. Fourteen student were arrested Nov.18th when protesting got out of control. Today the decision was made by the Board of Regents. I was there when they announced that the 32% increase was approved. Outraged, frustrated and fearful for their education students continued their protest. Students were bussed in from all over the UC campuses including; UC Berkeley, UC Santa Cruz, and UC San Diego. All ten UC campuses will be affected by this increase in tuition. Protests were held all over the UC campuses, throughout California.The police were surrounding all areas of the campus armed with; tasers, pepper bullets, bean bags, and batons. They made sure the protest didn't get out of control. Students were passionate about their fight, chanting, "They Say Cut Backs, we Say Fight Back" one of many messages they were trying to convey....arm in arm students, continued making their feelings known, at the same kept it a nonviolent protest. They are concerned that it will become too difficult to continue their education.
